“Our dog sitting experience with Shuling was wonderful. Lucky, our 4-year old mini goldendoodle, and his 2-year old beagle cousin looked like they were having a great time running around outside then relaxing inside. Shuling sent us lots of pictures. We would definitely contact her again if we need dog sitting coverage the next time we are in Annapolis.”

There were plenty of long walks, beach trips, photo updates, and play time with Elena & family. Would highly recommend and will be looking to rebook in the future. Thank you Elena!”
“Leia was living her best life like she was at a pet resort. Marliez treated Leia like her own with great care and attention, making her feel right at home.

“This was our second time leaving our dog Peach with them and she had the best time. It was a relief to know that she was in such good hands while we were out of the country. Jill kept in contact and sent regular pictures. 10/10 recommend them and will continue to use them!”
“This is our third time going with Jasmine as our sitter and we couldn’t be happier. She updates us daily with awesome pictures of both our dogs. She also lets us know how they did and if there is anything she is concerned about them or their health. She is our go to whenever we need our pups well taken care of.”
“Angela was so very warm, welcoming, and kind to our puppy. Minnie took to her right away, and because of the meet and greet, she knew exactly where we were going when we dropped her off. Angela was very thorough, asking all the important questions, and she even let my daughter visit to say hi to Minnie.”

“Our pup was well taken care of, walks and ball chasing, lots of pictures showed the fun he was having. Kim even sent him home with a Christmas present- a stocking full of toys and treats.”
“Brandon was absolutely wonderful! He is a very nice gentleman, reliable and very responsive. He gave me updates and sent awesome photos. It gave me such a piece of mind while on vacation. He took care of my 4 year old yellow Lab Harley like his own. I know, because when I picked him up, he looked happy and calm, smiling and waggling his tail. He was just very happy to see me and very happy where i left him. No signs of anxiety being left in somebody else’s house with a total stranger. I know he had a great time away from home. Another wonderful thing is that Brandon lives in a nice neighborhood and has an awesome big fenced backyard. Perfect for accommodations. I highly recommend Brandon and i am looking forward to booking him again 😊 Thank you so much Brandon!”

“Megan had great communication during the booking experience and accommodated our need to change the date of the Meet and Greet. She was very friendly and professional when she came over to meet us and Frank. She double checked and confirmed all information. She sent us pictures during her time watching Frank. She made sure to play with Frank in front of the PetCam so we could see him being cute. He was healthy and content when we returned home. We would be happy to ask Megan to watch Frank again in the future!”

“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. Tim took the time to earn our dog's trust and was able to play frisbee after a day or so. He truly cares about pets, even our difficult one. By the time we came home he was even able to pet our dog. We will continue to use him during our travels.”

“Melissa was amazing for our week-long trip. Our two cats approved (and I trust my female cat's judgement when it comes to people!) She made sure that our house was secure, the litter box and food dishes were clean, and that our cats received the kind of attention they needed each day. Thank you!!!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Allison made it a great experience. She even let us know about and applied the first-time user discount, which we really appreciated. She made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She went above and beyond by playing with them, brushing them, and even giving them fresh water from the sink. She also took great care of our frog. Allison sent pictures and updates every visit, which meant a lot to us. We highly recommend her and hope to hire her again!”
“I’ve had Jaclyn take care of my dogs a few times now and she always sends me updates on the dogs and sends me pictures, assuring me not to worry while I’m away. I highly recommend her services!”
About: Dog mom to a friendly 3-year-old Lab mix and passionate about providing loving, attentive care. I’ve owned a dog for the past 12 years, but grew up caring for my friends and neighbors pets. Your pup will enjoy plenty of attention, walks on the Baltimore & Annapolis Trail, or relaxed time in our fenced backyard. Whether they’re young and energetic or a senior who prefers a slower pace, I’ll treat them like family and care for them as if they were my own. For boarding, during the work week we are not home from 8:30-2:30. We will be home all day on the weekends. For walking and drop ins, I am available in the afternoon and evening during the week, all day on the weekends. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We have a secure fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy time outdoors. We have indoor cameras to monitor the house while we are at work. Our friendly 3-year-old Lab mix loves meeting new canine friends and provides great companionship for visiting dogs. I carefully supervise all interactions and make sure each dog feels comfortable in our home. We have an 11 year old and 6 year old that both grew up with a dog and are very caring and respectful of boundaries. They will be supervised while with your dog. Whether your pup enjoys active play, relaxing in the yard, or extra attention and cuddles, they’ll be treated like a member of the family in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment.

About: I’ve had family pets my entire life and I’ve been walking dogs for my neighborhood community for the last 5 years. Love dogs of all shapes and sizes as I have a little guy now. I’m available from 6am to 5pm for scheduled walks, check ins, and possible overnight dog sitting. I am pretty flexible and will have great communication. I have been walking pets in my neighborhood for the past 5 years and take great care of my dog at home. I also take care of my neighbors pets at college so I have experience.
About: Ive been around, and taken care of pets for my family/other friends and family for as long as I can remember. I have been trusted with the tasks of walking, grooming, medicating, and making sure the well being of the pet is at its fullest, and if it’s not, I am keen to figure out the problem. I am also very good with pets under the age of 1, as I have assisted in raising 3 litters of dogs of my own. I currently work as a freelance musician, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! My availability is very flexible, as the shows I play are in town, and only take up a small part of the day or night, so I will not be away from your pet very long, if at all! I have 5 dogs of my own, who are on a feeding/bathroom schedule that we follow daily. When I take them outside I am with them to make sure they do all they need to do so there are no accidents in the house. When taking care of your pet I will always cater to their need/routine; give them as much space, and or as much love as they need!

“Highly recommend Ryan! He took the time to do a meet and greet and really understand my dog’s specific needs. He was very communicative and flexible whenever any changes came up, which I truly appreciated.

He handled my dog’s reactivity with care and confidence, and it made a huge difference. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands!”

Even though these made us miss her all the more, we were happy to know she was being cared for with love. We will definitely contact Rich the next time we need to board Star.”
