Pet Sitters in Dayton, MD

Vincent

Vincent took very good care of Lucy and left the house tidy. Unfortunately we had some issues with the app and weren’t able to schedule a pre-meeting, which would have been extremely important since Lucy is a very scared dog and requires a bit of patience and trust building. Other than that his reports were detailed.

L

L is an exceptional pet sitter! She kept me updated at all times on how Bella was doing, letting me know when she went on walks or played with toys. She also sent frequent pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. I returned to find my house completely clean, just as if no one had even stayed there. I highly recommend L; she is trustworthy and I can confidently leave my home and dog in her care.

Manny & Marina

Manny and Marina are the BEST! Easy to communicate with, and I felt confident that they would ask questions if something came up (and they did). They sent just enough updates and photos to keep us reassured but without plunging us into missing our kitties too much. They loved the cats so much that they a) bought us a tiny adorable figurine that looks like one of them, b) came back in for pets and chats a few days after the sit had ended and they had returned for a forgotten water bottle. To sum up, lovely human beings, would totally trust them for anything, the cats obviously really liked them, and the cats and house were well tended while we were gone. Completely recommend without hesitation.

Vadim & Yun

Vadim was very communicative and took great care of my dog and home. I received many pictures and updates even though it was a short weekend away, which I very much appreciated! I could tell he gave my pocket pittie Ruthie a great staycation while I was gone!!

Bradley & Deborah

Bradley and Deb were fantastic! They were very reliable and clean, and Rosie was a happy kitty with them. They made sure to give her her pills on time and played with her, gave her attention, etc. Fantastic housesitters!

Susan

Susan was responsive and easy to communicate with before and during her stay with us. She took great care of our house and dog while we were away! You would be in great hands with Susan!

Felecia

Felecia was Great. From beginning to end, we were so very pleased. We were provided daily updates as to our pet and household. Felecia was very straightforward and transparent in all of our interactions and very easy to get along with. It was very apparent that our house and kitty were in the best of hands with Felecia.

Antonella & Clay

Antonella and Clay came for their second summer. Arlo immediately remembered then from last year. They are the dream house sitters. We could simply trust that everything was in good hands. Their communication with us was great. We hope they will come again. You couldn't find better sitters!

Lyalya

I recently had the pleasure of having Lyalya as a pet sitter for my 7 wonderful cats and I am beyond thrilled with the outstanding care she provided. Lyalya was a true guardian angel for our furry family members … all of them looked so happy and relaxed upon my return! Handing over responsibility of pets is no small feat , but Lyalya’s warm and friendly approach immediately put my worries to rest. From the moment she came in it was clear that she has a deep love for animals , backed by 20 years of feline care expertise. We even had enjoyable discussions about tailoring diet plans to keep my cats both healthy and happy. Lyalya seamlessly managed the daily tasks of cleaning the litter boxes and ensuring my cats were well fed, all while maintaining a keen eye for detail in up keeping the house The house looked spotless upon my return . For those seeking a pet sitter who balances efficiency with a heartfelt love for animals , Lyalya is the ideal choice.

Thank you Lyalya for transforming my time away from home into a worry free experience and showering my cats with the care and love they deserve. You are not just a pet sitter but a cherished member of our extended feline family !

Magdalena

Magda was organized, quick to reply to messages, and accommodating with plans. She arrived early so that we could spend time providing details of the sit and so that our dog Myers could see us with her. She was very self-sufficient during the stay and left the house neat and tidy. I'd recommend Magda and would use her to sit Myers again.

Ksenia

Ksenia was a prompt communicator, took great care of my cat, left my apartment tidy, and followed all instructions I left for her. I'd be happy to have her sit for me again.

Lesly & Nick

Lesly watched my two cats for a weekend and I would definitely recommend her. She was quick to respond to texts, left my place spotless and left a sweet thank you note. She was able to confirm the sit last minute and was very reliable.

Simone

Simone was fantastic she was well organised and had all the details I needed to look after Lolli. Who was the sweetest little dog, who loved our walks and a massage. I loved being with her. The location was great, plenty of places to walk, transport and shops very close. An awesome house sit. Thank you Simone and Lolli X

Noella

What an incredible house sit! Noella and Garby are incredible hosts. Their home is so beautiful and comfortable with a magical yard in a quiet neighborhood. And I feel like they are two new wonderful friends. And how can I even begin to describe how wonderful their dog Coffee is? In my lifetime of knowing and loving dogs, I have never met a more conscious, gentle, wonderful dog! As I said to Noella and Garby, if I was a scientist I would try and clone her, if I were a thief I would think of stealing her. But I am neither of those things, so I was just a very lucky TrustedHousesitter who got to take care of her. A truly wonderful time!

Charlotte

Had a wonderful relaxing stay with gorgeous Luna.  She is the best snuggle pot!
Charlotte gave us numerous recommendations for local restaurants, cafes and pubs. Public transport was amazing and so close to the house.

Kom

I had a wonderful time taking care of Guido and Stella and Hank in Mendocino! Kom and Ernest's house is cute and comfy, with all the conveniences and one of the best locations on the planet, IMO. There's no shortage of beautiful, scenic walks and the doggos are easy to handle on leash. Hank the cat is a lovely, affectionate older gentleman who loves cuddles.
Kom and Ernest communicated everything I needed to know and answered my questions completely. I'd happily sit for them again.

Barry

Another lovely TH sit at a beautiful and brilliantly located Bethnal Green apartment for a warm and welcoming  family.
As for the stars of the show, you will be sure to fall in love with Fig. I mean it: not only is she cuteness personified, but she has the sweetest, most spirited little character which makes her a joy to be around.
Juno is a grand old dame who generally shies away from the madding crowds below stairs.

Dorothy

Dorothy welcomed us into her spotless home early so that we could get to know the dogs and their routines. Toto and Ozzie were adorable and loved snuggling with us. Dorothy's communication was excellent as we reached out to her about Toto's anxiety challenges. Her suggestion showed how well she knows her dogs and helped us improved things right away.
