House Sitting in Windbrook

About: I grew up with many pets. For example, I’ve had 6 birds, 3 hamsters, 1 dwarf gerbil, 1 leopard gecko, 2 cats, 2 dogs, and possibly more. I currently have 2 dogs. Both are rescues. Jasper is 2 years old and I’ve had him since he was about a month old if even that, and Raleigh who is 7 now. I’ve had her since she was 2. Aside from the doggy babies, I also currently have a brown anole that I took in from Florida. His name is Tommy and I’ve had him for 4 months now. He was a baby when I found him. I also have 2 fish, Gumball and Penny. I personally believe all animals are babies. I’ve also pet sit for family members before. I’m currently working part time and I’m not yet in school. I do have a lot of free time, and because I don’t live alone I have people home to help take care of my furry and scaled friends, where as some people may need some extra help that I’d be able to provide! I was raised right. I’m respectful, do not cross boundaries, and know better than to disrespect clients (human and animal, of course!) I’m a big empath, I love animals beyond comprehension. I’m a vegetarian that’s working my way to veganism if that can show you how empathetic I am. I also cry while watching Ratatouille. I love walking, I love talking to animals, I treat animals as if they are literal babies because they are just too cute!

“Kristal was wonderful! She stayed at our house to dog-sit and took great care of our dog, Abby, and the house. We’d book Kristal again in a heartbeat.”

“This was my first time utilizing Rover for a booking. I was nervous as I have a Cane Corso, and we haven't had anyone watch her yet. Anna Marie was a delight and came right in and our dogs warmed up to her. Both of our dogs did well, and Anna and Carlos kept us up to date the entire time and sent pictures. She made the process easy and smooth as possible for us. I am happy to re-book with them again! :)”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, caring for a variety of pets and learning early on how important patience, consistency, and love are in pet care. Currently, I have a Shih Tzu that I’ve cared for over the past 8 years, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, grooming needs, and providing long-term, attentive care. I’ve also cared for a young Beagle for over two years, which gave me experience with high-energy dogs that require regular exercise, engagement, and structure. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. Whether it’s keeping an energetic dog active, maintaining a consistent routine, or providing gentle care for more relaxed or older pets, I make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and any special instructions, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home, which allows me to be present, attentive, and flexible throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins without long gaps, ensuring pets receive consistent care and companionship. Because I’m home most of the time, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs, whether that means sticking to a strict routine, giving extra attention, or accommodating special care requests. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy being part of my everyday life. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or my client’s home. I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free. This includes following feeding schedules, regular walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space while keeping their pet’s environment clean, calm, and familiar. I also would provide updates, photos, and communication so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. If caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, welcoming environment where they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. I’m mindful of each pet’s temperament and needs, whether that means giving energetic dogs lots of activity or providing a relaxed space for more laid-back or senior pets. Above all, I treat every pet like my own by prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times.

“Alexis did a wonderful job taking care of our dog on short notice. She is very responsive, communicative, and kept our dog happy and comfortable.”

“Michaela really helped out and was able to come dog sit for an entire afternoon on very short notice. She went above and beyond on communication and was easy and pleasant to deal with. She made sure Edgar was comfortable and had bathroom breaks, food, and water as needed. Definitely will rebook.”

About: I have a 3 year old pit and she is the best. Super energetic, loves to cuddle, loves people and other dogs, and is extremely smart. I am raising and training her myself. She knows all her basic commands like sit, stay, come, down, and heel. We have begun her off leash training! I have a 1 year old cat and a gecko. I also have experience with larger animals such as horses. I have worked with horses for about 6 years on and off. I am a recent college graduate from the College of Southern Maryland with my associate's degree in Arts and Sciences. I am able to do morning and afternoon visits and walks. It is very rare, but I am usually not available in the evening or weekends. I can also book out in advance house sitting if needed. I will administer medicine if need be, feed, and fill water bowls for drop-in visits, walks, or house sits. I can also trim nails and bathe for an extra charge. On walks, they will be no more than 30 minutes.

“Sanai has been an absolute delight! She is incredibly respectful, clean, and kind, and has taken exceptional care of our three-month-old puppy, Obi. My husband and I highly recommend her and fully trust her to care for our fur baby in the future.”

“John is by far the best dog sitter I’ve found for my two girls. My husband and I were able to travel in peace knowing they were in good hands. John kept constant communication with us and even informed us when packages were received while we were away. He is reliable and a consummate professional. I have absolutely no reservations on referring John to friends and family who need a dog sitter!”

“Tia was an awesome, Dog Sitter for our 70 pound, somewhat anxious, rescue dog, Lucy. She instantly knew how to make Lucy comfortable and feel secure, which is no small feat. She was also completely reliable., showing up on time, responding quickly to questions, taking as much time as we needed during our meet and greet. I cannot recommend Tia highly enough.”

From working in doggy daycares to kennels to house sitting for pet owners. I have plenty of knowledge and love to take care of your fur babies! I have a pretty flexible schedule as I am a college student. For dog walking and potty breaks, standing appointments are preferred (daily, weekly, certain days throughout the week) however all non standing bookings are also welcomed. I have open availability Fri-Sun. Overnight/multiple night bookings need to be scheduled at least a week prior to drop off date. I will do a meet and greet with your dog prior to performing any service. Any medical conditions, dietary restrictions, personalized household rules should be disclosed during the meet and greet to ensure all parties' expectations are met.

“This was our first outing with Alayza, and she is now on our go-to list! She got to know 2 older dogs that aren't always simple - and both gave her high marks! They quickly wanted to hang close to her!”
