About: Hi, I’m Tommy! While my legal name is Thomas, Everyone calls me Tommy.

This commitment led me to start my own dog-themed apparel business, Luv Pup, where a portion of profits goes to rescues saving dogs. Beyond my entrepreneurial mission, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, from iguanas (yes, I had two named Fifi and Disney!) to rats and, of course, dogs and cats.

They are all super friendly towards people and other animals. I constantly take my dogs outside to play at the park and they have a set feeding routine and get constant outdoor time.

About: I have had dogs for the past 30 years. I am an approved foster home for a pug rescue. I have rescued several dogs! The last two years, I have been a dog walker! The dog I recently rescued was a client I walked whose mom was disabled. She needed more care than her mom could give her. We bonded from the first walk, and I knew I could be her forever home! I have a blind/deaf pug as well. I do a lot of housesitting and dogsitting it’s always a joy! My home is on an acre. I have my own business out of my home, and so I am home all day and your pet will not be left alone! I am home all day running my health coach business.

I work from home on a part-time basis so I am with the dogs the majority of the time. When the dogs come to my home, it is like they are on their own little vacation. They have a good time playing with the other dogs and go home tired.

“Samantha is awesome at taking care of Max. Max is not an easy dog to walk but Max let her walk him and gave her kisses. Even though we had issue with Rover regarding refund on a few missed walks (due to legit reasons), but Samantha has been responding to my messages right away and tried her best to help me. I will book Samantha again in the future.”


About: Are you looking for a loving, reliable, and trustworthy human for your pet? Growing up in a family that bred Golden Retrievers, caring for dogs (and the occasional cat!) became second nature. Over the years, my passion for animals only grew, and I eventually started my own breeding business. Through these experiences, I developed a deep understanding of animals and learned the importance of gentle, attentive care. I moved from California to Maryland, where I’ve shifted my focus entirely to helping pet owners by providing exceptional care. I would be thrilled to look after your furry family member. Hi there! I’m Brooke, a devoted pet lover with a flexible work-from-home schedule, allowing me to cater to your pet’s every need, whether for a quick walk, a drop-in visit, or a overnight stay. I aim to create a safe, welcoming, and relaxed environment where your pet feels completely at ease and cared for, as if they were with family. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m here to make that experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Whether your dog loves exploring new parks, trotting around the neighborhood, or curling up for snuggles, I tailor every visit to suit their preferences and routine. During overnight stays, I bring a sense of home to our time together—your pet gets all the attention, love, and comfort they’re used to.t this time I would only be open to dog walking or drop ins. I am highly confident I can give your pet and yourself a relaxing fun experience with a stress free environment. I absolutely love walking, and enjoy hiking in my free time. My approach is built on compassion, attentiveness, and a love for getting to know each pet’s unique personality.

I have 2 dogs of my own but I don’t feel comfortable bringing outside dogs in with them on a regular basis, however I feel very comfortable watching/ playing with your pets in your home

About: I was a dog owner for 11 years of a Shih Tzu and a Beagle Boston Terrier mix, and loved every second. While in High School I consistently watched my neighbor's dog while he was away, giving lots of attention and love to his Jack Russell Terrier. I'm currently available most days of the week, and have my own vehicle, so I am able to come watch your pet on short notice. My two dogs recently passed, and I'm looking for something to fill that hole where they used to be in my life. I would be honored to care for your furry best friends while you're away. With drop-in visits I care for dogs by offering lots of pets and playtime, along with feeding, watering, and taking outside. I make sure to let them know they can trust me first before getting down to play with them, ensuring both of our safety.

About: I have owned dogs all my life. I can’t see myself without a dog by my side. I’ve owned all kinds of dogs and a few cats. I have completed several dog training lessons and have work diligently with my present dog I rescued that is high anxiety. I walk my hound dog 5-6 days a week. I’ve participated in dog fundraisers and 5k to raise money for shelters. I feel it’s important that dogs are treated like family but should listen well. We’ve taken our dogs on vacation and rides.
