Dog Sitting in Walkersville

“Sarah is just simply the best! Rover should lift their 30% tip cap because she deserves more! Thank you Sarah for allowing us to get away and not worry about our fur baby!”

“This was the first time I had booked Lauren to pet sit for me, and I would certainly use her again. She was very friendly when I first met her in person and I could tell that she was an animal lover. She was so nice, that in addition to making her daily trips to feed and water Sinbad, but she also watered some potted landscape plants for me that I bought right before my trip which had not planted in the ground. Both Sinbad and the plants were in very good condition when I returned home.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was little. I can really connect with them easily! It makes me happy that your pets are taken care of! Anytime, just let me know! I take time in my schedule to go to the gym as well, but that can be moved around if anything pops up! I have a fenced yard, so for my dogs I usually get toys out and play with them for a good bit. Maybe throw in some training treats for new skills. I can walk your pets, and learn what they love doing in your home! Even if that means cuddle time too!

“Emily provided an update on the house and for each of the cats (with excellent pictures!). She is always quick to reply to messages and so helpful!”

About: I’ve grown up with a 16 year old pup! I also have walked dogs for as long as I can remember. I currently work with dogs and cats on top of having 3 of my own! All different sizes too :) I currently have everyday open with a variety of different hours available! I can do one time a day or even 4 if need be! Feel free to reach out with any questions! I live next to a huge fenced in field, along with having extra enrichment items, treats, and different foods for all sizes of dogs and cats!

“Charlotte did an awesome job and always reliable ! 20% tip please add.”

“Rylyn took great care of Mimi. She even got her to come out of hiding. No one else besides me has been able to since Dec, 2023. Great accomplish. Rylyn jumped in to pick up extra visits - left earlier & delayed getting back on time. I will definitely use her again.”

“Paige did a great job checking in on and caring for our dog. She was prompt and provided immediate feedback for us which we really appreciated. Very reliable and we will definitely request her again!”

Leslie W.

“Once again an awesome experience with Misty and Fiona. They sent notes and pictures from every visit and we could clearly see that our girls were comfortable and well taken care of. This is the second of many more bookings in the future. Highly recommend- 5 stars”

“Jess was wonderful with my little Aussie — she was patient when taking her for a walk and made sure she could romp around our yard, but also made sure her paws were clean when she came in. She also made sure to check in on our other animals to make sure everyone had what they needed. Looking forward to continuing to work with Jess.”

About: I’m a teacher, so during the school year I can board any time and care for your pet as you would while you’re working and during the summer I can give them my attention and am more flexible to house sit as well! I had an Australian shepherd so I am used to keeping up with the energy of any dog. I have been a reliable dog-sitter and walked for neighbors and friends for years. I am in an apartment but am always excited to get out and walk, plus there is a typically vacant dog park that I could use for some play and more space while I am boarding! Feel free to give me ALL the info to make you feel comfortable leaving your baby in my care. (I’m was a crazy dog mom who made emergency contact lists for my dog-sitter before) no judgement here! I’m a teacher, so during the school year I can board any time and care for your pet as you would while you’re working. My typical hours are 7-5. During the summer I can give them a lot more of my attention working part time 8-2 and am more flexible to house sit as well! I will always move at your pets pace, even if they’re a little nervous and I know how nerve racking it can be to leave your pet with a stranger. I’m hoping to make you both comfortable!

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. Predominately cats and dogs, but also a few fish, hermit crabs, and briefly a lizard. In my teens I started helping my parent's friends with house & pet sitting. As an adult, I have had both a cat and a dog as my personal pets to continue to have their company in my life. I still help my friends and family today in the care of their animals. Summer Time I have more time as my child is visiting with their father for several weeks. M-F 9am-6pm. Sat and Sundays 10am-6pm; IF AVAIBLE. I do have other work on the weekends. Once school is back in session, I will be available M-F 9:30am-3pm. Your pet and home will be treated with the highest quality of care and respect. No messes left behind and all rules will be followed.

“We hired Katie again to take care of our pets while we were out of town for Christmas and she was great with our pets again! She always sends us plenty of pictures which is always reassuring. Highly recommend hiring her!”
