Dog Sitters in Deale, MD

Lynn was a fabulous sitter! She is an incredibly kind, reliable and friendly person, she (and Kenny) sat for our three cats while we were away for a week. We didn’t get to meet Kenny in person but he was lovely on the initial video call! Lynn came to our house to collect the keys and be introduced to the cats a couple of days before the sit which meant we knew everything would be in great hands. Lynn is a warm and lovely person so we immediately felt at ease knowing everything would be fine while we were away. We were so pleased to receive lovely photos and updates from Lynn who seemed to be having a fab time with the pussycats. They were all very healthy, happy and relaxed on our return, and had lots of playtime while we were away which they love. The house was also left spotlessly clean and tidy, so everything had been very well taken care of. We are hugely appreciative of the care and attention Lynn and Kenny provided, and we would highly recommend them as sitters. We would gladly welcome them back anytime!

Amanda was great and I will definitely have her watch Clyde again if our schedules align. She provided updates on how things were going and sent some fun photographs of the 2 of them walking. The house was clean when we arrived back home and Clyde was a happy boy.

I feel like I won the lottery with Jill and Jim, they were the absolute best! I felt completely at ease and so happy my pups got the chance to spend time with such a loving couple. I would be happy to have them again and highly recommend them and their sweet pup Louie to others. I hope they will come back, Polly and Ruben are missing their new friends.

Meghan and Elle were fantastic sitters and anyone would be lucky to have them! Meghan’s communication was perfect from start to finish, she was flexible and reliable. I know she and Elle took great care of our active, sometimes challenging dog, and left the house very clean! I also appreciated the photos she sent me throughout the stay keeping me updated with my pup. I hope to have them back.

Ashna and Dwayne stayed with Jasper for 3.5 months over the summer. They were fantastic cat sitters and were so responsive and helpful. They kept the place sparkling clean and helped with things our landlord requested we do while we were away. They just really went above and beyond. Would highly recommend them to stay and sit anyone’s house and pet!

Kyle was an absolutely wonderful sitter for our dog, Cosette! We would have him back and recommend him without reservation. I appreciated how organized and on top of things he was even before the sit started. He was flexible, super responsive, and responsible throughout the sit, even taking some issues that popped up with the apartment in stride until we could find a solution. It was clear how much Cosette liked him in every video he sent (and because she went straight to being mad at us for leaving when we got back instead of acting love-starved). We knew from the second we got home that both her and our apartment had been well cared for.

From the start, Kerry was very communicative with us. She cared very well for our dog, Finn, taking him to the dog park several times, feeding him some of his favorite food (within limits we had discussed with her), and sending us lots of photos along the way. We had a couple of maintenance issues with the house that came up while we were away, and Kerry managed well through them. The house was very clean when we came home. We could not have been more pleased with Kerry, and would recommend her as a house and pet sitter without hesitation.

Holly was fantastic, would recommend her to anyone.

When we met Orion for the first time, we liked that they were genuinely eager and excited to spend time with our cats. When they came by the house to pick up the key, we showed them around, gave additional instructions, and asked them several times if they had any questions or needed to know about anything else. They confirmed they were fine. However, upon our return, we discovered that some of our instructions were not followed. We told them that we preferred the cats to only go out once a day and that they needed to be back in before sunset because of the coyotes. There is a cat door that has different settings to let them in/out, out only, in only. They left the cat door in/out which was noticeable upon our return because we came home at 8pm and both cats were still outside. In terms of tidiness, we think they did a decent job with cleaning up after themselves, but we were a bit taken aback seeing leftover food in the fridge and having to take out their trash. They also left something at our place, which they later picked up. In terms of communication, we think it was a little bit difficult. There were a few times we asked them a question or stated a preference, and they would not respond or answer our question. It made us confused, like perhaps we miscommunicated or they misunderstood us, but we would not receive an answer. Overall, though, Orion genuinely seemed to enjoy the company of our cats, and for this we appreciate. On the other hand, we’ve learned that we will need to outline all of our expectations in written form for future house sitters and make sure that the sitters understand and agree to them because we didn't feel understood during this house sit.

Chuck and Heidi spent a week at our house in August while we were away in Yorkshire with our son and his family. They are currently on a round Europe tour, and have now moved on to the Baltic states. They were very friendly, and conscientious, and looked after our house and garden well, picking fruit to put in our freezer. They both plainly love animals, and took extremely good care of Jordy, our dog, including when he suffered one of his periodic seizures. They arrived as strangers and left as friends, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them as great housesitters!

Ava was a perfect house sitter! She kept us updated, was flexible when we had a shift in dates, cats were well cared for and house was clean. Would not hesitate to recommend!

Elissa and Nick were wonderful! Our pets were comfortable with them right away. They kept us posted with daily messages and pictures. We felt at ease leaving our furry kids in their care. The place was spotless upon our return, with clean sheets, towels, dishes done, and happy pets. We highly recommend Elissa and Nick and welcome them back any time.
