Heather will definitely be our first choice again!”
“Michelle’s drop-in visits for our cat Aura were prompt & reliable. All tasks were completed. Michelle went over & above what was required. Because Aura hid under a bed as is her habit with most visitors, Michelle sought & talked with her and was able to reach & pet her. Finally Aura purred & looked relaxed in the photos Michelle sent everyday. This was Aura’s second drop-in experience with Michelle. We feel very comfortable planning future visits with her.”

She went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled, kept me updated, and gave me real peace of mind during my trip. It was obvious from the updates and from how my cats acted afterward that they were comfortable with her and well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail and the care she put into everything. Highly recommend.”
“Our dog was a challenge for the first few visits.It was the first time Tim took care of our pets and it was for a long weekend.

“Ed and Amy are pleasant and attentive to their pet guests. Plus, they are very good about making sure animals get bathroom breaks and exercise. In addition, Gunner’s warm demeanor always makes people feel welcome.”
“Sooo easy to work with her under flexible conditions. My hound is a rescue from a nine-year life of abuse. Celena allowed Miguel and me to do a met and greet ahead of time so that it wouldn’t be a shock for him. He was treated as a visiting family member and enjoyed his stay.”
“Alex communicated throughout our dog’s stay, shared lots of photos, and took him out for walks. Our shy boy normally takes weeks to adjust to a new sitter, but clearly liked being with Alex and her pack.”
“Kacie was just great with our pup! Even though this was our first visit, they bonded quickly and I knew he was going to have a fun day. Walks, play date with another pup and a trip to the dog park - all things wonderful for an eager playful pup. I walked away as he walked in the house with Kacie. He was happy when I picked him up - perfect day in every way. Highly recommend Kacie - your pup will be in great hands. Plus, she’s so nice and super friendly!!”

About: I am patient with dogs and am in tune with their behaviors, and will give them plenty of exercise if you'd like me to. Whether you need me to visit your dog's home or drop them off at mine, I'd be glad to help. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run and am a short distance from a bike trail that makes for good dog walking. I make it a point to take my own dog, Snickers on a walk at least once a day as well as playing fetch with her. I'd be happy to help keep your pet entertained as well I have a furbished basement that opens up to a fenced in backyard, with plenty of room for them to run around. Have toys to provide as well to keep them entertained. I just retired and am looking to help others with there pets and keep active.
“Whitney is an excellent care provider for my fur baby! My girl suffers from separation anxiety and I needed someone she could hang out with when I was at work and my family was out of town. All I can say is this was the first time my baby was actually excited to leave me and stay with someone! She wagged her tail and easily went to Whittney when I dropped her off. Always came back to me happy and relaxed. Whittney was great sending me lots of pictures and she regularly took her for a walk. Plus, Whittney is so sweet herself, I want to be her friend!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life! My golden just recently passed and I currently have a 4 year old Australian Shepherd. I would love to walk and take care of your dog. Our current dog Bodie would also love to have friends to play with! Most of my experience is with bigger dogs but I am open to smaller dogs as well. I live in a neighborhood that is dog friendly and there are plenty of dogs around for fun interaction and play time if the dog is allowed! My schedule is open and flexible. I work in and out of the office weekly but can accommodate most schedules! Will only accept what I’m able to do! I love going on long walks. Pets are treated like humans in our household. We love animals so much and can’t wait to take care of your pet.
“Laura is fantastic! Our pup Luna had a great time and loved playing around in the yard and with her two lovely pups. Laura was great to work with and sent pictures during Luna’s daycare session. Thanks!”
About: I've recently graduated college and now have a lot of free time on my hands. I love animals so much(perhaps more than people...). I have experience in taking care of dogs of various sizes and temperaments. Growing up I've had a puggle, boxer, and now two german shepherd mixes who were adopted from shelters. I've volunteered at animal shelters where I walked, cleaned, brushed, and fed dogs. Furthermore, I've pet sat for neighbors and family members. My dogs live with my parents in Cascade, so I don't live with dogs nor other humans at my house in Annapolis. I would love to take care of your pets! I will be starting a program that runs from M-F 9-3:30 soon, but am available after 3:30 M-F and all day on Saturdays/Sundays. I could walk, feed, or let out your pets before 9 as well. The M-F schedule will change come the end of July which would give me more availability on those days. When I'm at my parent's house, I let my dogs out in the mornings, feed them breakfast and dinner, give them medicine, go on walks/hikes, practice tricks and obedience tasks with them, and play with them. I'm more than happy to provide these services in my client's home too!
“Brittany is the seriously best! She took care of my 2 year old labradoodle, and it was clear from the photos that my dog was having the time of her life in her big backyard and welcoming environment. Thank you, Brittany!”
“Roxy had a wonderful time playing with Andreas and his dog Luna. She was reluctant to leave in order to come home. The rest of the day she was happy and tired. Andreas was very pleasant to deal with. His fenced-in yard is a big plus.”

“We absolutely love, Alexia! She is consistently punctual and genuinely engages with our dog during his walks. What really stands out as how well she manages him, especially when he gets reactive around cars and certain dogs. Alexia took the time to do a meet and greet before our first walk, which made all the difference in ensuring everything went smoothly. We've already booked her for multiple walks and will definitely continue using her services. We feel so fortunate to have found her!”
“Yari was very patient with my two active pups. She will be perfect for future drop in visits or to walk my dogs one at a time. I knew it was a big ask to have her walk them both at the same time. But she gave it a good try.”

“Owen is reliable, kind and trustworthy. He shows up, gives my dog a good walk regardless of the weather, and responds quickly. I highly recommend him to anyone that needs a walker.”
“Marley was absolutely wonderful with Fiora! The photos she sent during each walk were beautiful, and Fiora always came home happy and pleasantly worn out — which is everything you could ask for. We couldn't recommend her more highly, and she'll be our first call whenever Fiora needs her daily walk covered.”
About: Hi! I’m 22 and just moved home after graduating college, and am looking for summer work before I start law school in the fall! I’ve had at least one dog in my home since I was 6 years old, and can’t imagine my life without them. I’ve been around tons of breeds, including my family’s own greyhound and rescued mutt mix, my sister’s pitbull mix, my other sister’s mini aussi, and my friend’s rescued puppy. I’m confident in saying I have experience with all types of personalities and temperaments. More than needing something to just keep me busy this summer, I’m hoping for an activity to keep both me active and your pets happy :). I’m able to adapt to whatever you and your pet need. I don’t currently have a regular job this summer, so my weeks and weekends are completely free to care for your pet! I’m a morning person as well so I’m able to do early morning visits, as well as anything else throughout the day. Growing up with pets and a busy family, it means I’ve always had the shared responsibility to walk the dogs, play with them, feed them, and let them out. My dogs were also always picky eaters, so I’m very experienced in making the food seem as fancy as possible if your pet needs the same special treatment. I love dogs and am an adaptable person, so I’m truly prepared to do anything you need to make your dog happy, comfortable, and tuckered out :)!
“Tim was absolutely wonderful! You can really tell he has a genuine love for animals. He kept us updated with detailed messages and adorable photos of our two dogs, which we really appreciated. If you're looking for someone kind, reliable, and great with pets, Tim is your person! We'll definitely be booking with him again.”
“Kayla was fantastic with our dog, Kona! She communicated clearly, sent great photo updates, and was very respectful of our home. Kona loved her walks and came back happy every time. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10! I have always been the go to for friends and neighbors when it comes to pet sitting! I love going on long walks with dogs and I also love brushing and doing basic grooming if they need it! I’m currently enrolled at University of Georgia and am a full time student! My class schedule is pretty consistent, but i can always make time to take care of a pup or cat! When caring for other pets at client’s homes I always make sure that they are in my sight! I think this is really important when letting a dog out to play in a backyard or if there are any other special instructions that require it (example: making sure a dog/cat eats the medicine and designated food for them)!
“Megan was amazing, punctual and a true dog lover. She walked my dog twice a day for a week when I couldn't walk him myself. She sent great pictures of my buddy every time she took him out and he looked blissful in most of them.”
