House Sitting Whaleyville

“Alison knocked it out of the park once again! She house sat our precious Sherman for 5 nights and did a fabulous job! We never have to worry about him receiving excellent care while we are away. She is the absolute best!!!”

Robert W.

“Great choice! She was very accommodating when our schedule changed, left the house clean and Frenchie seemed to really like her. Would do it again 💯”

Jason B.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young teenager. They give unconditional love and are so happy that they make you happy. I have two of my own and would have more if I could. I regularly run with them, play ball, play tug of war and even swim with them in the ocean when I can make it there. I give baths and clip nails. I am very good at continuing training with dogs with simple commands like "stay", "wait", "sit", "lay" And i also train using hand gestures. Dogs are a huge part of my life and i don't know know I would do without mine. So let me continue my journey on giving dogs the best life they can get. Let me love your doggies too!!

“John was on time. He was very kind. He and our sweet Savannah bonded and has a great weekend. He completed walks and feedings. He assisted with her vitamin. We will plan to use him again and would highly recommend him.”

Bob M.

“Great care provider. Everything was perfect”

John B.

“Jacqueline took care of our dog and two tree frogs for us. She was very pleasant and seemed to bond well with our dog. She was wonderful and flexible re: adding the frogs into the mix.”

Deborah M.

“Melissa and Jordan were absolutely fabulous - this was the first time we’d left Ruby behind for an extended period of time and we were a bit nervous but those nerves quickly went away! They took great care of her, provided lots of updates and left our house cleaner than when we left - couldn’t recommend more!”

Lesley D.

“We had Kasey for one night and for the first time, but definitely intend to keep her in mind for future longer stays. In fact, we already booked her for a week early August. She was very responsive and our pup seemed very happy when we got home. She sent pictures around the house and out for walks too. The house was immaculate and she ever took our trash bins out as she noted several were out in our community.”

Heather W.

“Alyssa was wonderful! She made sure my pets were well taken care of during my trip and sent a lot of photos and updates. She left my place in great condition and I felt good about leaving my pets in her care. I will be rebooking her for future care!”

Lauren A.

“Kim is an absolute delight. She enjoys pet sitting and our puppy loves her visits. At the very first meeting she sat on the floor with our pup and played with her. While we were away she shared pictures of our pup resting on her lap and updated us during her stay. Our puppy was well taken care of and we will definitely hire her again.”

Bette J.

“Isabella was so kind to come babysit our pug in the middle of a flood. She stayed and hung out with him so he wasn’t lonely while we were at a wedding and when we got home he was ready for bed they had such fun together.”

Georgia H.

“Mariah did a fabulous job with our two fur babies. We came back from vacation to find them happy, healthy and well cared for. She sent plenty of photos. Definitely recommend. She was caring for them in our home and left the house spotless.”

About: I grew up with dogs & cats. Additionally, I have dog/cat/house sat many times for multiple people over the past few years. I am very trustworthy and follow the rules of the owner to a T. I love animals and am looking for a way to make money for college while I help make owners lives easier while taking great care of their furry family members! I live at OCMD during the summers to save money. I can walk/ take care of animals any time after 3pm everyday. Additionally, I am typically off Tuesdays and Thursdays to be able to help as well. Simply, how I take care of animals varys from person to person, however there are basic needs animals have that I follow. Some of these are attention(I give a lot), walks, etc. Other then that I follow exact rules owners give me from food time, to amount, to how many walks a day.

“Christine is amazing!! So caring and kind and a great communicator. Our senior dog has many challenges (meds, anxiety, feeding, messing in the house) and Christine is an absolute professional. Sent many pictures and reports while we were away. She made us feel so relieved to be able to go away and leave our old guy after he just had yet another health scare and she rescued us last minute when another petsitter had to cancel. She cared for Benji as if he was her own. She was so patient with him and made sure he was safe and comfortable at home while we were out of town. He made lots of messes which she kindly cleaned up. Christine went above and beyond and we recommend her wholeheartedly.”

Cathy W.

“Ken was incredible! My dogs loved him and he communicated well. Sent me pictures and took the gods on nice walks. I highly recommend him!!!”

About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds for my whole life living on our 50 acre family farm. We have horses, pigs, cows, dogs, cats, reptiles and fish! I take care of all of them and provide them with a loving and enriched environment. I can’t wait to meet your best friends, or have them for a visit! Pet care is my greatest passion and second job at home. I spend my mornings out in the fields with my horses and cows pitching hay, mucking stalls, and cuddling in the grass. I spend my evenings snuggled up with my 3 hound dogs on couch or landscaping my reptile and fish tanks for fun. I am open to the needs of all pets as I know people do things in their own way. I will carefully follow the instructions left by the client.

“Yasmine did a great job taking care of my dogs. She got them out frequently for walks and was excellent about sending daily updates. We had unexpected travel delays and she was very accommodating to stay longer until we got back. We returned home to happy dogs and a clean house. I will definitely reach out again for future pet sitting/housesitting needs.”

About: I have volunteered in the past with a rescue shelter and I loved walking and playing with the dogs. Since we are a virtual school family, my schedule is pretty open and flexible so your pet will get lots of attention and cuddles. I have cared for cats and fish most of my life. I am comfortable with grooming, providing special diets, giving oral medication and inhalers. If boarding, your dog must be gentle and friendly with kids and cats. I have a 4th grader and we recently adopted a kitten. They must be comfortable in an apartment setting with a busy hallway where barking is frowned upon. Cuties who like to be guard dogs might not enjoy staying here if frequent noise is activating. We are usually home most days due to virtual schooling, but occasionally have short outings and field trips. We continue to use pretty strict Covid precautions, like always wearing high-quality masks and running hepa air purifiers. I ask that my clients are respectful of this. I am very flexible and encourage last minute cancellations if any symptoms of illness pop up. Likewise, if we have symptoms or test positive for Covid/flu I will cancel the booking. Luckily, I have only had to do this two times in so many years and will always issue a full refund. We live in a very pet friendly area and are close to great dog parks. Our neighborhood is full of green spaces and sidewalks and the Rock Creek Park trail is directly behind our apartment. We will care for your dog like it is our own. I love taking photos and will send as many as you’d like and will provide updates and check-ins as often as preferred.
