Cat Sitters in Ellicott City, MD

Matt & Chris

Matt and Chris were our very best dog sitters EVER!!!! I could list it all from loving the dogs, walking with dogs, playing with them,feeding them our crazy food requests…and they are kind and a lot of fun! An oh… my refrigerator has never been so clean!! Not to mention the house. They were fabulous!! And we hope they will come back and stay a little longer so we can actually get to know them as well as our dogs do😘 Mahalo Yiu two for Everything!!!#

Dorothy

Dorothy is very delightful and it's very clear that she loves pets, especially cats. Jimmy took to he at once. Dorothy is very responsible and we came home a nice clean house. Highly recommend her and would love to have her sit for Jimmy again.

Tim & Jeannene

Tim and Jeannene did a fantastic job for us. They happened to be in our area well before our sit, so they came by to get to know us and the fur babies in advance. They were very communicative before and during the stay, which was awesome. We were on a cruise so we had no text or cell service, but they both sent updates via email - even including some pictures. Our dog loved getting his walks every day, and Whiskey (the dog) and the cats were very happy and well adjusted when we got home. The house was so tidy when we returned and not having to make the bed after a long trip home was icing on the cake. I would 1000% recommend them for a sit, and I would 1000% have them back to sit for us in the future.

Jennifer

This is our third time inviting Jen to sit for us. Our babies love her. She spends so much time with them and is great at keeping us updated daily, including pictures. We know we have nothing to worry about when we leave as they are well loved in our absence.

Margo & Dennis

Margot and Dennis were wonderful house and cat sitters. They quickly bonded with our two kitties and provided them with lots of love and attention while we were away. They provided regular updates and photos. Margot & Dennis are a lovely couple who took great care of our home. I recommend them and would consider them again for future housesits.

Gemma

Gemma has looked after Thanda before, and he was happy to see her again. She took him on walks in the park, took good care of the house, and even did minor repairs of her own initiative!

Alyx

Alyx was scheduled to sit for our dog on what turned out to be a terribly stormy weekend (weddings cancelled, etc) but she showed up anyway, thank goodness, and left our home better than before she came!

Caleb & Tabitha

Caleb and Tabbie were great! Gave us regular updates and we could definitely tell they cared about all of our pets. Would recommend!

Caitlin

Thank you Caitlin! I appreciate you keeping Apollo company. Everything went great, and I'd love to have you back.

Sofia

Sofia was an incredibly caring, clean, and communicative pet sitter. My dogs did great with her and she kept the home nice and tidy while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

samantha

Samantha did a wonderful job taking care of our animals and house. We are happy to invite her again in the future! 😸😻😺🐢🐢🐢

Erline

Erline was such an absolute pleasure to have stay while we were traveling. She was so sweet to the cats and responsive, sending photos, etc., each day. The house was spotless when we got back (and thank you for the flowers!) and we'd love to have her back anytime to housesit again. Could not recommend her more highly!!

Bernadine

Great Sitters! Come back soon! Louise and Stephen thank you for your kind words, your care and fondness of Joey, for dealing with the unusually bad weather we had in sunny Javea.  You were stars! Our home was beautiful and wonderfully cared for to return to. Thank you so much!

Belinda

Kim and Rowan were exemplary pet sitters. They did a fantastic job looking after Isla, who was very fond of them. They left the house very clean and tidy. Communication was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed their company and  I would have no hesitation in having them back again.
