Dog Sitters in Highland Beach, MD

We were thrilled to have Chandra watch our two pups during our holiday vacation. She communicated well, kept us updated on the dogs, and kept our house in great condition. We highly recommend her and would be happy to welcome her back anytime!

Laurie, her daughter Ellie, and her husband Bryan were all involved in looking after my house and my dog Juno. Juno can be challenging the first day of a sit because of separation distress and a tendency to be skittish with new people. Laurie and her family handled all this in stride and by the end of the sit, she reported that Juno was enjoying her walks and playing with Ellie. Thank you Laurie, Ellie, and Bryan for your patience and care in looking after my shy little dog and my home.

I echo a previous reviewer that if you get the chance to have Liza house sit for you!, do it! She’s awesome and very easy going. Dynamic, and completely self sufficient. She’s very clean, and even organized a few places in our home. I am 100% satisfied with Liza’s care. I never once worried about my dogs. She’s a gem! Thank you Liza. It seems like such a small gesture, but she truly deserves all the thanks! Liza please feel free to come visit the PNW at any time. We loved having you!

Mark and his wife, Claudine, were phenomenal house and pet sitters. They were kind and loving toward our dogs, of course, which is the most important thing. They even fed our little frog, which is a challenge and takes a lot of patience, but they did it with good cheer. They sent us a daily update, including photos, to keep us informed about how things were going at home and shared funny and sweet anecdotes that really captured our dogs’ natures. We name home to a pristine house and a lovely and sweet surprise that couldn’t have been more thoughtful. zeewoi has connected us with some great people, and Mark and Claudine are truly that. If they should offer to sit for you, don’t hesitate a moment!

Mary and Arthur and the fam came early to meet me and do a walkthrough. They asked good questions, were very communicative and left the house in great shape. Would love to have them again!

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.

July 22, 2022 Hannah and her boyfriend Chiyoung were ideal house sitters for my two dogs, Charlie and Gertie. They relentlessly walked the dogs three times a day and allowed them time to meet their canine friends in the hood. They also proved to be excellent at keeping my house in good shape and in looking after my swimming pool. The place was in better shape than before I left to visit my sister in Scotland. Hannah and Chiyoung have my highest recommendation.. I give them five stars in every category. John McClintcok

Meredith was great, the dogs loved her even Babette who is nervous of strangers. Pus Pus was her usual self. Meredith arrived when she said she would giving me time to show her where I walk the dogs and to take her to the various supermarkets. On returning home the house was clean and tidy, I couldn't have asked for more. I would highly recommended Meredith, I am sure you will be delighted.

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

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.

Joseph took care of our cat and house-sat for us for 2 weeks. In advance of our trip, we were able to do both a virtual and in-person meet and greet to ensure everyone felt comfortable and do a walk through of the house, which we really appreciated.While we were away, Joseph responded quickly to texts/any questions we sent and provided photo and text updates every 1-2 days. Upon our return, our cat seemed happy. Unfortunately, the day of our return, Joseph accidentally locked himself out of our house. He communicated with us and we were able to provide him access to a backup key. However, when we returned home about an hour and a quarter later, we were surprised to find that he was still there (he was supposed to have left much earlier in the day before we arrived home, and we knew he was running a little behind because of the lockout, but he didn’t tell us he would still be there when we walked in). He texted us that the house was clean and ready for us, but unfortunately the house was not clean and the cat litter boxes were quite smelly and appeared not to have been changed or scooped in many days. While we realize that getting locked out of the house created some delays in getting packed and tidying the house, we were upset to find the kitty litter in that state and for the clear disorganization, at least in the final day. We provided this feedback directly to Joseph and hope that this was a one-time experience. However, we would urge clear communication around any expectations for cleaning, communication, and care.

Roxann was great! Timely, tidy, and communicative. Would recommend working with her!
