Cat Sitters in Lochearn, MD

Stephanie & Anthony

Stephanie was the perfect find for us. So much so that we contemplated giving a bad review so we could have her more often but we just can’t do that! Seriously, she loved and cared for our dogs as well as we do, and we do! Our dogs got hikes, walks and went snow shoeing while we were gone. We could not have imagined a better person to take care of our home and pets! She is officially now in the group of those we call friends.

Devora & Francesca

Devora and Marcelo were wonderful! So friendly and responsible, I felt completely at ease with them taking care of our home and pets. They were also so immaculately clean, it was such a relief returning home to such a pristine state! Thank you for doing such an amazing job.

Carrie

Carrie arrived on time and immediately connected with our two dogs. She took excellent care of the dogs. They went on walks around the neighborhood. She communicated with us every day, sent pictures, and left the house spotless. Highly recommend her.

Naghmeh

Naghmeh watched our house and senior Siamese cat for a week over New Years! We met over video chat and we got a great feeling immediately. She was very communicative, sent regular photos and videos, and left the house very clean and tidy. Will definitely reach out for future sits. Thank you!!

Olivia

Olivia took great care of our home, plants, and high energy pup. She is communicative and reliable. I felt totally at ease while on vacation knowing everything was in good hands, and came home to a clean and tidy home. You’re welcome back anytime!! 💛🐾

Chelsea

Chelsea and her wonderful son Steven came to my home to care for Woolly Mammoth. Woolly fail immediately in love with them to the point he almost did not say bye to me. He really wanted to be playing with Steven! Chelsea kept me fully informed and also my family when there were a couple questions about my home. I got pictures and even one of Woolly trying to leave with them as he jumped into their car and needed to be coached out! The house was impeccable when they left. I would love to have them back!

Caitlin

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

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.

Liz

We had almost decided on another housesitter for a recent family vacation when we got a message from Liz, who travels with her dog Buster. Our dogs love other dogs and we thought the addition of a play pal would really help ease any anxiety they had in our absence, even though there’s always a little concern with adding another dog in the mix we decided it was worth a shot and boy did it work out swimmingly! We have always felt that our dogs have been well taken care of with TH, but this is the first time we’ve been away and had daily professional photographic documentation that they were also having mega FUN in our absence! Liz took all the pups out on 3mi minimum hikes every day and facilitated a ton of play and cuddle time at home. I think our girls both fell in love with sweet Buster, he’s 11 so totally mellow and even keeled- he got along perfectly with both Reaux who loves to rough house and Cece who is a lot more mellow. His stint here may help me convince my husband we need another dog! It was a real treat for us to get to travel without any of the usual anxiety that the dogs weren’t getting enough exercise or play time- we are pretty active and they are used to being tired/happy all the time so it’s usually our biggest concern. Liz took such great care of our home and property through two winter storms with several inches of snow, and successfully finished off a 30 course of antibiotics with both of our dogs. We had a little bit of a hectic exit from the house to leave for our trip and she was so sweet to even fold a load of laundry we had in the dryer and take care of a few other loose ends- really above and beyond! As usual with TH- our home was in gorgeous condition when we returned and we couldn’t be more grateful for the respect and attention paid. Thanks Liz for all the love you showed our dogs and our home! And especially for the incredible pics- they were such a treat. Wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Liz and Buster to anyone looking for a great house sitter and dog buddy combo! We’re so thrilled with how well things went we will actively seek out other TH sitters traveling with their pets in the future. 10/10, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hope to see you guys again some time! Love, Laura & John, Cece & Reaux

Katriona

Karen and Steve were exceptional Housesitter's- thoughtful, organised and very capable.  They took the role with appropriate seriousness but were very friendly  We enjoyed their company very much and would recommend them without reservation

Gareth

Jolie sat our home, cared for our 2 dogs and tended the garden for a week.

We found her to be very organised in arranging travel to and from our location. Jolie arrived the night before and stayed in a youth hostel in order to be here early in the morning, as well as arranging onward travel later in the day so that the dogs were not alone in the apartment for too long, even though it was not the most convenient for herself. This was greatly appreciated.

The dogs seem to have gotten on really well with her, loving the daily long walks in the countryside and the snuggles on the sofa. Ivys' (one of the dogs) food allergies were well managed with no signs of breaking her (boring) allergy diet, even though she can be very persuasive. We enjoyed receiving images of the dogs doing stuff, or even doing nothing, curled up in their baskets. Jolie was clear and precise in all her communications.

The apartment was left very clean and tidy, the bedding changed and the dirty bedding washed and left drying on the rack. It was a pleasure to come home and immediately feel relaxed and reassured.

Jolie also demonstrated her natural gardening skills by not only keeping the indoor and outdoor plants alive but helping them grow exponentially.

We would have no problems in recommending Jolie to any future potential house and pet owners, and would welcome a repeat visit should the opportunity arise.

Good luck Jolie on your continued adventures. Just remember what Voltaire said, and nothing can go wrong.
