Cat Sitters in Laytonsville, MD

Charles

Charles and family were great! I highly recommend them for anyone. They were especially accommodating when our flights were delayed coming home. I hope they will help us out again in the future.

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.

Tara

Shwan was a great pet sitter for our dog Leia. He always kept us informed, took very good care of our young dog even when she was feeling a bit sick - always in consultation with us. He provided her with toys and took good care of her. Our plants looked great when we arrived. Even when our air conditioning broke down (in warm Florida), he coordinated the workmen in the house. We would definitely recommend Shawn and Tara as a dog sitter - Thank you so much!!!

Makeda

Makeda and Dani were great house guests. She provided the perfect amount of info on our pets daily activities and sent some great photos. She was courteous and considerate and left our home as clean as she found it if not cleaner.

Elise

Elise took such great care of my two cats! We were able to meet in person before and my cats immediately took to her. She provided frequent updates and pictures, and left my apartment clean and tidy. I’m looking forward to Elise and Sachin sitting for me again and would definitely recommend them for your house sitting needs.

Nora

I was so happy with Nora's first pet sit, I booked her again 2 months later. My dogs love her and my plants love her. She takes the most wonderful pictures of my dogs. Again, I am going to print some of these pictures and frame them. I can't recommend her highly enough. My home is always tidy when I return, my plants are blooming and most importantly my dogs were happy. She is both responsive and responsible. Thanks so much Nora!

Thais & Kelvyn

Thais and Kelvyn, I could not thank you enough for your love and care for my Mimosa. Absolute pros around cats and not only were you both so kind and naturally caring, you also took on the hard task of helping to train Mimi in her travel carrier with such ease. I loved receiving your regular updates, and amazing photos of you all having such a great time. You easily slotted into Mimi’s routine and were so accommodating. I know Mimi adored her morning chats, lap cuddles, treats, night time plays and extra chin tickles. The house was super clean and tidy and welcoming to come back to so I could enjoy Mimi cuddles. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. Both Mimi and I would be honoured to have you back any day and hope our paths cross again. You are always welcome anywhere we are either in Singapore, Malaysia or Holland :)

don

Don was responsive, reliable and took great care of our home and our cat. It was a pleasure to have Don stay in our home for two weeks and we'd happily invite him back or recommend him for future sits. On top of that Don is a great photographer and we got great pictures of our cat. We really felt that Don went above and beyond to make sure our cat felt happy, safe and comfortable.

Ramsey

Ramsey was an amazing cat sitter for Harry & Sassy. Was very organized and communicative. Left the house in great shape including cleaning the refrigerator, the wood floors and replacing paper goods and toiletries. He was wonderful with the cats who obviously were attached to him. I feel like it was a vacation for Harry & Sassy with daily grooming and play sessions.

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.

Carolina

Carolina was amazing, especially considering my dog required an emergency vet visit. She took great care of Homer, put his needs first, and communicated well throughout. The situation wasn't ideal for Carolina but she did an amazing job. Highly recommend!

Lindsay & Shayne

I would not hesitate to have Lindsay and Shayne take care of my house and pets. They were so kind and thoughtful, even brightening our return with a vase of sunflowers! They cleaned up better than our housekeeper. Most importantly, they really played with and exercised our Labrador. I could tell from the photos they sent while we were away that he was extremely comfortable and relaxed with two new people in his house. Thank you for being such great Zeewoi!

Tracy

Clair was a fantastic sitter.
She was incredibly accommodating when I got my times a little messed up and she had to arrive early in the day.
The cats have been really well looked after and are happy - but they obviously miss her.  Shadow has calmed down since we have been gone so Clair must have been a positive influence!
We received regular contact throughout our two week stay with photos of the cats looking well.
The house is perfectly clean and tidy.
We 100% recommend Clair for any future sits and would certainly invite us back into our home. 
Thanks Clair! 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

CYNTHIA

We brought our pets on our vacation, but I still put a 5-star for pet sitting.  From what I can tell, Craig would be an attentive, kind, and great animal sitter.  He took care of our house and especially our plants look pretty darn good for the amount of sun we were having.  Also, I was pleased to see how clean everything was including putting new sheets on the bed.  I recommend Craig!
