About: I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I watch neighbors and family members dogs on a regular basis(feeding, walking, etc.). I love animals and being outdoors. Dog walking is one of my favorite activities that combines two areas of life I love! I am currently a full time college student and work part-time. My schedule allows plenty of flexibility, especially this summer without school! Mornings and evenings are preferred, but I am able to switch around my routine to accommodate your pup(s)! I have two cats who are very pet friendly! I am fully capable to accommodate anything your pet may need to ensure they are safe and loved while their owner is away!
About: Big dogs, little dogs; I have over 25 years of experience with animals. Growing up, I worked at Gaithersburg Animal Hospital where I walked, fed, cleaned, and performed lab work. Pet care is my full-time job. Your pets will be supervised throughout the day. I'm flexible with drop-offs and pick-ups, but request a couple hours in advanced If you need assistance with transportation, we can assist with that too. Please ask for more details! I live in a cottage right outside of Smithsburg, Maryland. The lot is 1.5 acres of land. Hygiene and safety are at the topmost importance. Your dogs will not stay crated and can access the entire property. We have cameras, which you can access to check up on your pet. We play fetch, swim in our doggy pool, and get walked regularly. Other Services Provided Upon Request – Baths, Photos, Hikes
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years, starting in middle school and continuing through college and grad school. I have experience with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and caring for both dogs and cats. While in school, I regularly pet sat for families in Pennsylvania and built lasting relationships through reliable, attentive care. I’ve worked with pets of all ages and sizes—including dogs with health issues who require medication, special routines, or extra attention. What sets me apart is my lifelong connection to animals. I grew up in a home with pets throughout my childhood—including 4 dogs (labs and pointers), 6 cats, and 10 bunnies—so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love making animals feel safe, happy, and cared for. With extra availability this summer, I’m excited to support your pet’s needs! I recently started a full-time role, but the great news is I only work three days a week! That means I still have plenty of availability during weekdays and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting. I'm happy to work with your schedule and provide consistent care for your pets while you're away or at work. Feel free to reach out with any questions or requests—I’d love to help! I take safety and trust seriously and always aim to make both pets and their owners feel at ease. I care for pets in their own home to help maintain their routine and comfort, which I know is especially important for animals who may get anxious in unfamiliar environments. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it's feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, or playtime preferences—and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy while you're away. I treat every pet like my own and every home with the utmost respect, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. You can feel confident that your furry friend is in caring, trustworthy hands.
“Malcolm is awesome! He was prompt, professional, friendly, and best of all loved our dogs and they love him. He took the time to get to know them, asked us questions, provided us with an update after the walks. We love working with Malcolm and will request him again. Thank you!”

About: Hi! My name is April. After growing up around dogs, my husband and I decided to get our first dog-a Hurricane Katrina rescue-as soon as we got married! Having a love for dogs evolved into a partnership with a local rescue in which I've volunteered for transport, adoption home visits, adoption follow up, and fostering. 3 dogs later-I enjoy walking the dogs around the farm, car rides(with drive thrus for pup treats of course!), and cuddling on the couch(our dogs know how to nap!). My friends know that my house is the "dog house" and that their dogs are welcome to come have fun and hang out too! I tend to be the "go to" friend when someone needs a pet sitter:) I specialize in special needs and geriatric care.

I have four cats, a dog, and some fish of my own, and I love meeting other pets. I’ve also had experience giving medicine to cats as well as dogs, and am not afraid to try working with other types of pets. I know a lot of folks will be going on vacation over the summer and I’d love to help out as I look for a way to keep busy while school is out!

I like to have detailed instructions for each pet I sit so I can make the transition for your pet as easy as possible!

I also always make it a rule to leave someone’s home as well or better than I found it!

Isabel C.
“I’ve watched Isabel care for many pets over the past several years, and her genuine love for animals truly shines through. She’s incredibly flexible—often stepping in on less than a day’s notice. She has grown up caring for dogs, cats, and bunnies in our home, and even helped out when she came home from college. Now a cat owner herself, Isabel continues to be a responsible and compassionate pet sitter. She has even skipped our family vacations to help care for others’ pets, which speaks volumes about her dedication. She’s reliable, caring, and an absolute joy to trust with your furry family members.”

Andrew is a kind, caring and honest person and loves animals. And I can say my pets love being around him too. :) I would recommend Andrew to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Cindy L.”

My pup gets so excited when MyKenzie arrives—it’s clear how much they enjoy their time together. Not only does MyKenzie make sure my dog gets plenty of exercise, but I always get updates and pictures, which gives me total peace of mind. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for your dog, I highly recommend MyKenzie!"”
April D.

April is always willing to do whatever is possible to help those in need; especially those who cannot help themselves. This is a quality that she exudes amongst people and animals. I have asked April to watch my pets when I needed help because she treats them as I treat my pets, like they are her children. I trust April with any duties that will come her way with the safety of the dogs and believe she will be an excellent caregiver!”
