House Sitting Zora

“Ivy was great! My nervous pup warmed up to her very quickly and easily. She took good care of the apt while I was gone, everything was clean and just as I left it upon return! I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with Ivy and I would definitely recommend her!”

“Matthew is a wonderful pet sitter. He is friendly, easy-going, respectful and considerate of your pets’ needs and any worries. Matthew did everything we asked to take the best care of our cat. We will definitely use him again!”

About: Having the background of being raised on a farm has given me an innate love for animals. I have become a go to person for my friends and family in the city with not only dogs, but farm animals as well (cows, goats, pigs, chickens, rabbits etc.). I have experience with injured and ill animals as well in care taking. I am able to follow dietary restrictions and diets in general as well. Pets, cuddles and walks are no problem of course! :) I currently work from home (Thurmont, M-F 8-5) so I am very flexible with me being in home for either a whole work day, half day or drop ins (if close by). I cannot board in home. I am able to follow the direction of your pets care. Food schedules/diets, crating, walks etc. I keep every pets area clean and tidy so they feel as comfortable as possible. I simply ask for communication ahead of time in expecations.

“This was the 2nd time Melisha watched our fur babies & our house while we were out of town, and just like the first time, she did an amazing job! She was super attentive & kept in touch with us multiple times throughout each day. She also sent pics of our dog & cat every time she communicated. She also handled a situation between our dog and an unexpected groundhog in the yard, like a champ. I would definitely recommend Melisha. She truly is a pro with regard to pet sitting!”

“Micah was awesome! He got along great with our Ruby and Lily. He asked all the right questions. When we were away and he wasn’t sure of something, he asked. He was a trooper with our Ruby who is afraid of bad weather and he handled it awesomely. He picked up after himself and left the house in great condition. Highly recommend!”

“Chloe was attentive, responsive, and made sure to update me on our dog's medical issues regularly. I would 100% go with her again and highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Amber was great - she met with us last second ahead of the stay, just to ensure our dog was comfortable with her. When she did stay with Cocoa, she gave lots of updates and made sure she was good to go before leaving. Absolutely would hire again, thanks Amber!”

“Karen is an amazing pet sitter!! She took wonderful care of our energetic pup while we were on vacation! She kept us informed with lots of photos, videos, and detailed updates. Karen was incredibly caring and attentive to his needs and safety, making sure he got plenty of belly rubs, cuddles, playtime, and exercise. She also took excellent care of our home, and left everything perfectly clean and tidy. We were truly able to enjoy our vacation, knowing our pup was in such great hands.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats personally over the last 8-9 years. I've also taken care of pets from neighbors, friends, and coworkers. I love working with animals I'm currently a student athlete in college. I'm also part time at work. I definitely can work with you to provide great care quality for your pets. I will make sure that all doors and fences be closed. Make sure every doors is locked in case some are curious. Make sure that there isn't anything on the floor that a dog or cat may swallow. Careful with food and treats that is given to them.

About: I have spent countless years caring for all shapes and sizes of animals. Anything from fish, to guinea pigs, to horses, and all in between. I currently work full time, but my employer is very flexible and understanding of my schedule, and allows me to do whatever is needed for the comfort of your furry friends. I spend countless hours in your home, with your fur babies, to ensure that they are able to run and play, just as they would if you were there. I strive to make their lives normal, just like it would be if you were home with them.

“Ronny was incredibly attentive to our pets and patient with our dog. We have a dog that is not very trusting of new humans and Ronny took the time to work with him and earn his trust! He was attentive on giving us updates on how our dog was doing and how the rest of the animals were doing. 10/10 will book again 😊”

About: Hi! Thank you for taking the time to check out my profile. I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with three dogs (two Rottweilers and a Shih Tzu) who were treated like members of the family. In addition to a lifetime of personal experience around dogs, I also have numerous years of professional experience as a dog walker, dog sitter, and house sitter. Working with dogs is truly one of my greatest joys in life 😊 I promise to care for your fur babies (and your home) as if they were my own. I enjoy traveling to new locations for dogsitting, and am always up for an adventure! I have experience working with dogs of all ages and sizes. My schedule is very flexible, so I'm happy to accommodate last-minute bookings as long as I'm available. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon! I'm self employed, which allows me the flexibility of setting my own schedule. When I'm working a dog sitting job, I consider it my first priority. I'm happy to adjust my personal schedule to accomodate your dog's individual routine and needs. I currently offer overnight dog sitting at my clients' homes. This allows your dog to feel at ease in his/her own living space, and alleviates the potential stress of traveling and adjusting to a new environment. I often work from home for my other jobs, so I'm able to spend lots of quality time bonding with the dogs that I work with. I'm very communicative with my clients during a job, and often send updates and photos to let you know how everything is going. If you're a dog owner who also has cats, I'm happy to care for them for a small additional fee. (Please refer to "additional cat" on the list of services that I provide).

About: I spent twelve years caring for my German Shepherd, Tyson, who taught me the importance of patience, trust, & routine. Alongside him, I have cared for doggies of all breeds & sizes for over fifteen years. Friends & family have relied on me for walking, feeding, companionship, & staying with them for days at a time. I'm especially comfortable with large & strong breeds. I'm calm, attentive, & deeply respectful of each dog's unique personality- my goal is always for your pet to feel safe & loved while you're away! I'm happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease as well! I will also care for your kitties! Hi! I’m Jade! I recently moved back to my hometown after spending the last five years living in Colorado, and I’m taking this season to slow down a little, spend time with family, and enjoy being back home. I’ve had a bit of a colorful career path! I’ve spent years as a private nanny and household manager, worked in property management, attended school for Interior Design, and now work in management and social media marketing. Through all of it, I’ve always loved work that involves caring for people, creating beautiful spaces, and making life a little easier for others. Outside of work, I’m a creative and an adventurer at heart. I love acrylic painting, interior design, hiking, cooking homemade recipes, road trips, and traveling to new places. Give me a beautiful trail, a little town I’ve never explored, a paintbrush, or something new to cook and I’m happy. I also had a dog of my own who I had to say goodbye to a few years ago, and I’ve really missed having that companionship in my everyday life. My current work gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day, with especially open availability on Sundays and Mondays. I’m happy to follow whatever routine makes your pet happiest—whether that’s long walks and adventures, backyard playtime, or lots of couch snuggles. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your little family member is with someone who will genuinely love and care for them. I take them to the dog park, long walks, roaming around in fenced in yards, & lots of snuggles. Whatever you are comfortable with and whatever your dog's typical routine is- I will make sure they are fulfilled.

“Tracie is fantastic! She took great care of our dogs. She provided detailed updates and lots of photos and videos. One of our dogs is wary of new people and took to Tracie very quickly. She is a dog whisperer! We highly recommend Tracie.”

About: I was an obedience instructor in high school, and took my Sheltie, Mistie, to earn our CD at dog shows. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and feel like I trust them more than people. I’ve never met a dog I was afraid of - bring on your “terrifying” pittie, we’ll be besties within an hour. I’m also great with the teeny, tiny dogs - I’m calm and soothing which puts them at ease. I work part time in Baltimore, so I am available most of the time! I love going on walks and exploring. I also love cuddles on the couch, as well as a fast-paced game of fetch! I will obsessively keep your baby in a leash when we are outside, and well as keep him/her away from other dogs, while out-and-about.
