House Sitting Westover Hills

“Meaudre' was stellar as per usual. The animals LOVE her. She follows directions to the letter, keeps the house neat and tidy and is a general joy to have in our home. Our older dog has lost her hearing and Meaudre' accommodated that issue easily. During the snowstorm she communicated with my daughter to reassure her that she was at our home.”

About: I'm very patient, having owned both cats and dogs throughout my lifetime. Have dealt with both from the puppy/kitten stage through old age/end of life. I am semi-retired and available for a wide range of time that can satisfy any work schedule or vacation plans from clients. I enjoy going to the gym and taking walks to remain active so I am flexible around any schedule as needed. I am willing to walk, feed, or even stay over night to be with your pet. I am not currently willing to keep a pet at my home.

About: I have taken care of many animals like cats, dogs, fish, chicken, hamsters, and a few others! Most of these were in my home throughout the years, and around four years ago I began sitting for friends and family. I am very dependable, punctual, and I love to spend time with animals. Making sure your animal gets all their needs met and have plenty of social time while you are away is my priority! I currently work part time as a server, but with a minimum two weeks notice I can work my schedule around your animals needs to give them the best care possible. I base my time spent at the house per the animals needs, but will visit at least 2-3 times a day for an hour. I cannot care for animals in my home as I am a college student in a small apartment and have an animal myself. However in clients home I tend to follow the clients instructions and base care around the animals attitude and needs. Every animal and person is different so it really just depends on your family! I also care very much about home and personal safety, this is a top priority.

“It was very reassuring to us that Julie was with our dogs while we were out of the country for 10 days. She sent us pictures numerous times each day letting us know our pups were getting excellent care and having a great time. We are always sure the dogs are in great hands when Julie is there to care for them. She is kind, responsible, and is great with our dogs who can sometimes be a handful! We can’t recommend her highly enough if you’re looking for someone to care for your pets.”

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 provide reliable, attentive care that’s tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. I have a 15 year old Yorkie mix and a 1 year old Yorkie. My experience includes caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, so I understand everything from basic training and routines to giving extra patience and comfort to older animals. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and keeping pets active, safe, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel at ease with regular updates and check-ins. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets aren’t left alone for long. I’m flexible during the week and weekends, which allows me to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule and give them the time, supervision, and care they need. I create a safe, calm environment by following each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise pets. In your home, I respect your space while keeping your pet in their normal routine. I also provide updates and can handle special needs like medications.

“Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was so wonderful with our dogs and went well beyond bag we asked!”

About: My name is Carla, I have over four years of pet care experience (working in pet stores, vet clinic's, and volunteering for local shelters. I also am mom to 3 fur babies of my own: My senior dog Dino, my rescue Darla, and my youngest daughter Appa. I have a genuine love for animals and will ensure that your pet receives the love and care they deserve. I will walk, feed, and play with your pet to help you give them the extra care they need while you work or take that vacation. I enjoy being active especially with animals so long walks are a favorite past time of mine even during the cold weather months. I look forward to working with you and loving your pets! Thank you for your time! Carla C. I work from home during the week and have the weekends free! I have plenty of time to drop-in and walk your pets if needed. My dogs are crated during the day while I work. Darla gets 3-4 bathroom breaks, while Appa is still being house broken. As far as my client’s home, all I need to know is what their routine is and I go from there.

“My cats love Marcus! Even my senior boy Miles who usually hides from strangers came out for him, which says a lot as he's slow to trust people he doesn't know, especially when I'm not there to provide a sense of security for him. Something came up during the stay but Marcus communicated this to me and was able to resolve it with no problems. I've used him multiple times and have always been pleased with the care he has provided to my babies. We will soon be moving out of the area and I'm already sad about having to find a new sitter. Molly, Milo, Max, and Miles will miss the honorary bonus member of the "M" name crew! Thanks for everything!”

About: I’m an experience, dog owner and true animal lover, who takes pride in providing attentive and loving care. I currently have a 100 pound German Shepherd, who I personally potty trained and taught commands like sit, lay down, wait and handshake. Through this I developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, patience and consistency. I’ve also cared for and walked dogs for friends and family. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and I treat every animal like they’re my own. In my free time I also volunteer at a local Humane Society where I walk and spend time with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I am comfortable handling different energy levels and personalities. As a student working part-time, I have a flexible and well managed scheduled that allows me to fit pet care throughout my day. I’m available most days and happy to work with owners to find times that fit their needs. I provide attentive personalized care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I will follow your pets usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes including large, highly energy breeds, and whether it’s a walk, drop in visit, or stay my goal is to keep your pet happy safe and stress while you’re away I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their well being at all times I will also provide regular updates and photo so you can feel confident and at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.

“I'm so glad Amanda was able to petsit for a last-minute, quick overnight trip. We had good communication and she left my house exactly how she found it, what more could you want from a sitter?”

About: I grew up with dogs. My brother has always had big dogs. My mom has always had small dogs. We have a farm in Montana where dogs are a big part of every day life. I have a fairly open schedule and am available most times of the day and night. I do not mind working off hours and could be flexible with most schedules. I currently have a rescue cat named Ru. She is all black and was at the humane society for almost 3 months before coming home to me. I love dogs and have had many different breeds and sizes over the years. I’m hoping that we can fence in our new home so that I can rescue a new dog soon.

“Kaitlyn did a good job with our boy Zeus, our overactive 2yr old Doberman! We would recommend her service for pet sitting!”

Terry L.

About: I’ve had dogs and have been taking care of family and friends dogs and cats for over 10 years. My family has had healthy dogs and dogs that have had medical issues over the years, and so I’m knowledgeable in looking after a dog who has undergone surgery, or who requires special care due to paralyzation. I love all animals and friends have relied on me to house sit their dogs while they go away on trips or vacations for multiple days at a time, sometimes with more than one dog at a time, or additional pets as well, so I’m very experienced in addressing each animals needs, while also sending “daily nanny cam” updates to family and friends so they can see their pets during the day and know that they’re happy and doing well. I work full time, but work from home two out of the five days, so I would be able to take your dog on multiple walks during the day, come over and stay with them for a few hours to play, or even house sit them for the day or several days if you’re going away for a trip. If they require special medication I just ask that you leave me their vitamin/mediation schedule and will administer based on your instructions. My family dog loves to cuddle with me in my lap and when she’s not allowed on the furniture, I’ll often sit on the floor with her so that she can snuggle with me. On the days that I work from home, I would be happy to stay at your home with your pets making sure their needs are met. I love my family pets and will give your pets the same love and affection that I give mine. My animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the couch or on the bed (unless you don’t want them on the furniture/ there are behavioral issues I need to be aware of, I would have them do the same thing). I walk my family dog in the afternoons and play with her throughout the day with dog toys and fetch, but will monitor if it looks like the toy is coming apart and could pose a risk to them. I would follow all instructions left when it comes to house sitting/walks/or day sitting, and would ask for you to share any behavioral issues or triggers with me in advance so I care be aware of them prior to taking your pets out on walks or just in day to day interactions. This allows me to be aware for your pets safety and the safety of any other animals we could come around. If a dog doesn’t seem friendly while we’re on a walk, I would remove your dog from that situation to try and keep them as safe as possible. I will also always reach out to contact you if there are any issues or questions I have about daily activities, medications, etc. When I dog sit at someone’s home, I recognize that I am really there just to look after their pet, so I don’t leave the house for extended periods of time and will actually put on animal shows for the pets to watch, including planet earth, or Disney pet movies. I also like to send updates that I called “nanny cams”, which are photos or videos of your pet playing or just hanging about so that you can have peace of mind that they’re happy and you can also see them while you’re away and receive updates. I will always communicate with you very openly to ensure you have peace of mind while I’m taking care of your pet.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for several years, including my own pets and of friends. I’m comfortable with active cats and dogs, feeding routines, and handling different behaviors. I pay close attention to safety, keep pets engaged with play and walks, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I offer drop-in visits for cats in their own home, so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m flexible with scheduling and can visit once or multiple times per day depending on your pet’s needs. I can help with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and check-ins to make sure everything is okay while you’re away. I respect your pet’s routine, and I make sure everything is clean, safe, and stress-free during each visit. I have two cats of my own, so I understand their behavior and needs very well. I pay attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your cat feels comfortable, cared for, and not lonely. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos after each visit.

About: I love any kind of dog and will treat them as my own! I’ve had a dog almost my entire adult life and now greatly miss having one after mine passed away a few years ago. I work part time 10:30-4 Monday thru Friday. I am available before and after those hours. I take several walks a day as I like to stay active, but it is much more fun when there is a pet to accompany you! I have a large fenced in backyard and lots of toys to play with. My neighborhood is very pet friendly, has many sidewalks, and has lots of nice yards to poop in! I also have a park close by that is pet friendly. I will give your pet the love and attention they deserve!
