About: I grew up with dogs and cats. I have taken care of my family and friend’s pets on occasion. I currently own two cats and am experienced in administering pills and liquid medicine to them. I am an elementary school teacher so I have all summer to give love and care to your pets! I can’t wait to meet them! The care and safety of your pet is extremely important to me. I provide that care in your home, yard, or neighborhood where your pet is the most comfortable. Please make me aware if there are local pets or people that they do not get along with.

“Marcus was the absolute best with our dog! More than a dog walker, I can say Marcus was his pal!! Obe who is not a jumper/barker/howler, would go crazy when seeing Marcus pull up in his car! And always came back smiling and exhausted. Marcus was also prompt and flexible. He sent us pictures of their adventures every time. Hands down the best exercise friend for our wild guy Obe!”

I am a first time mom, currently in the newborn stage. He was born February 6th. I am the primary parent and take care of him night and day, therefore i unfortunately can’t work. I do have support that will watch him while I do drop in’s, burnsides appointments I am mainly free!! In your home, I focus on maintaining a safe and familiar environment for your pet. I follow your pet's routine closely, ensuring their feeding, playtime, and exercise schedules are consistent.

About: I've been pet sitting for many years and I have experience in many different ages, breeds, energy levels, etc. I've always been naturally drawn to dogs and vice versa. I'm an active college student looking for some pups to take along on my daily walks and runs, but I can also provide regular care like visits throughout the day for those with long work days and out of town trips :) I am a college student finishing up my Junior year in May, leaving me with plenty of free time in the summer. I work part-time as a personal trainer so I have a flexible schedule that is under my control. I am often available on short notice :) I have one small dog (my childhood dog that I stole when I went off to college) that becomes best friends with every dog she meets, but she stays with my parents in Ocean City when needed. I've stayed in many client's homes before and I always enjoy the down time with the pup(s).

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. But I’ve cared for my dog Tickle for 12 years now. I trained him as a puppy and care for him in his old age. I can do it all!! I’ve also cared for cats and fostered cats. I can administer medication, give baths, clean litter boxes, go for walks, and more! I am currently out of work and so I’m pretty available through out the week. I babysit sometimes but it’s usually once a week and very random. I am very careful with animals!! I know taking care of my older dog I take it very serious about what he eats. I know different animals have different rules. Also.. ANIMALS NEED LOVE!! I can give them love so they don’t feel lovely, take them for walks, give them treats and food, and anything else that is needed.

“Met Anna at the nearby dog park and hired her the next day to walk my 1yo Pittie mix who has some major energy he needs to get out! When they got back and I saw how happy Charlie was I knew I’d found the perfect match with Anna. She was amazing so I hired her the Remaining 4/5 days Id be here. We just bought a 2nd home on the island and I’ll be using Anna every day we are here:)”

About: I have had many decades of well-loved Labradors, a couple exceptional Mastiffs, and a loveable yet crazy Brittany. In our home we have two full time cats that moved in after our neighbor passed away. Our family lives have always included pets and a multitude of farm critters that we care, love and enjoy. I am comfortable and have experience with large dog personalities as well as the medical and physical needs of seniors. And I can follow directions! I work full time as faculty at a local college, however my schedule has flexibility throughout the week as well as through the day. Typically I am available most days and locally can travel easily for pet care. Dogs can be boarded here as long as they are cat and dog friendly. There are 2 cats and I also watch our son's Brittany Spaniel during the week. For dogs that do stay here, they are allowed on the furniture as well as on our bed and there are multiple dog beds for their choice. Our backyard is fenced away from the road behind a privacy fence. For those dogs that like to swim there is a concrete salt water pool available during the season. Whatever directives the pet family prefers will be followed with updates regularly.

“Kate is awesome! She was so good with my dog and she tried her best to accomodate walking Kosmo when I accidently booked the wrong dates. Not only did my pets love her but Kate's customer service is also fantastic!”

Your pet will be loved, supervised, and treated like family every step of the way.

About: Im familiar with giving medication, and providing exceptional care for all animals. I've cared for pets most of my life, and I have 5 years of experience in an animal shelter caring for cats and dogs. It's very rewarding, and it's the best part of my day when I see the happy tails, hear the purring and receiving those kisses. I dont live in Denton, I live in Salisbury. I do travel for my clients,[up to 50 miles] only if youre in need of a sitter for more than 3 days. We can discuss even further during a meet n greet. My full time work is as a gig worker. I make my own schedule, so I am able to care for your pets at any time. I love animals! I provide a safe, and caring environment when I care your pets. I love them like they're my own. Care would be in your home, and I usually stay overnight, unless you would like daily care, then I would come a couple times per day to provide meals, scoop litter boxes, take daily walks, etc.

About: My family has had dogs since I was young. I have potty trained several puppies in that time. I currently have 1 senior dog that I adopted from the shelter and 2 young dogs that my fiancé raised from puppies. They are my comfort. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs. I've watched my families dogs and cats while they have been out of town. I have experience with raw feeding as well. I'm a stay at home mom so I have pretty open availability. I homeschool my kids, but that doesn't take away from being able to care for others animals at all. I can walk dogs in your yard or around your neighborhood. We have a large yard that is great for walking dogs around. Plenty of space to wear even the most energetic dog out. We have children so they would get more than enough love and cuddles.

About: Ive taken care of dogs for a long time, my family friends have always relied on me to take care of their pups to feed, walk or sit! I’m currently working a part time job! I have plenty of time to fit any schedule that works to take care of your dog! Feed or sit! I have no pets at my house so you don’t have to worry about your dog being around another dog if that’s your concern I live in a big neighborhood so I have a lot of space to take your dog on walks!

About: Hello ! My name is Annie and I am a long time owner and lover of pets. Since I was 10 years old, I have pet sat for neighbors and families when they went away on vacation or other various outings. As a child, this taught me valuable skills on learning to care for our beloved furry friends, as well as gaining confidence in my abilities to care for different breeds. I have carried these skills and abilities well into my adulthood. I would love to be the helping hand that you need for your pet ! I am currently working as a nanny part-time Mon-Fri. I am available every evening after 4pm. Regarding the weekends, I am available anytime that you need me. My weekend availability is very flexible. I would feel most comfortable caring for the clients pet in the comfort of their home because that is an environment that they know and love. Additionally, I do not have a fence at my house so I think that would be safest option for both the sitter and client.

“Samantha was terrific. Chewy our 90+lb Rottweiler/hound absolutely adored her. Samantha was very reliable and communicated with us everyday. She walked Chewy for 8 days while we were gone. My parents who were watching Chewy while we were gone liked Samantha also.”


About: I’ve been around animals since I was very young, and I spent some time volunteering with the Brandywine Valley SPCA. Currently I’m only working with smaller dogs and cats, due to an arm injury I’m not able to work with big dogs. Currently working part time, I’m usually available most days except for Sunday and Wednesday. I’m still flexible around these days, we can work out details of pet sitting times if need be. I’m willing to work with pets of all temperaments and I will work to build trust with any pets I work with. I will make sure to walk the dog as much as needed and be sure to clean up after them.

About: I've cared for my own cats and dogs, as well as worked as a Kennelist and a Bather for years feeding, bathing, trimming nails, cleaning kennels, and walking handicapped/healing and boarded animals. I have experience in puppies/kitties to senior. I am currently available as needed to fit desired requests. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of availability to make multiple drop-in visits or overnight stays, if necessary, in one day. My cat (pictured), Delilah, is pet-friendly and has lived with my previous rescue cats, as well as dogs. She is the Princess of the house, but that's only because in this house, it is just My Husband, Myself, Henry (Swiss Bernese- Greater Mountain Dog) and Delilah! She has many favorite places to sleep and cuddle up on furniture to bask in the sunshine, or stare out the window. Henry (pictured) is our newest four-legged friend, weighing in over 100lbs, and brings you all love and kisses with his tongue hanging & flying in the wind as he gallops towards you. He totally doesn’t know his size, thinking he’s a lap dog still at 2 years old (and I allow it 🙃). His favorite days are dog parks and play dates, but he loves his pool and herding his sister, Delilah, around the yard! (Ducks and turkeys pictured do not live here or belong to me) For Boarding/Daycare: My cat is crated if needed. Dogs would need to be leashed and walked on property. No fenced in property. Leads available in yards.

About: I have been dog sitting for the last 2 years consistently. I have experience with all types of dogs including all sizes and temperaments! I love to take the dogs on walks and play ball too! I will be attending UMES Dr. of Physical Therapy program and will have lots of free time to spend dog sitting. All the money I make will be used to supplement my education. I hope I can make a great fit for you and your fur pet!! My schedule is very flexible since I am attending UMES for my doctorate and do not have any other responsibilities. I will be able to let our your dog frequently and do not have concerns of other obligations getting in the way! I enjoy long walks and playing with dogs who are energetic and need the extra exercise! Additionally I also love to cuddle and love on any kind of pets if that is what they prefer!

“While Alyssa was attending college, she lived with me and assumed some responsibility for Buster, my dog. After graduation, she insisted on finding a pet friendly apartment so that she could have a kitten. When she moved to a larger apartment, she added a feline companion for Cody. She is very attentive to the needs of her cats and was to those of Buster.”
