Maryland Suburbs Dog Care Reviews

See why Maryland Suburbs dog parents trust The Comforted Kitty for reliable dog sitting and private dog walking.

"My sitter was responsible, respectful of my property, and very kind and thoughtful to honor the requests I had. I was especially grateful for the daily updates as I could see how well they were doing in her care. My cats are like my kids, and I am extremely happy that I chose Dan’s business. I already booked my next appointments with them and I would highly recommend their services to my family, friends, and colleagues."

"We've been working with The Comforted Canine for over a year now and have always had a good experience. We've always had the same dog sitter, which is nice since it helps with feeling secure that our dog and house is in good hands. He is reliable, communicative, and our dog is always happy when we get home. It's also a nice service since you can book on the app, and they will even go above and beyond and help with things like watering plants and pulling in trash bins."

"We fully trust our sitter and are so grateful to be able to relax on trips knowing he’s taking amazing care of our dogs and house. He has a great demeanor with them, gives us daily updates (with pics and videos), and always goes above and beyond (brings packages in, etc). They also use an app the tracks everything which is super easy, convenient, and professional. If you’re looking for a great sitting service you can consistently rely on and trust, look no further!!!!"

Why Dogs Stay Happier at Home

For many dogs, staying home helps reduce stress, protect their routine, and avoid the overstimulation of boarding, daycare, or group care.

  • Keep meals, walks, potty breaks, and rest times consistent
  • Stay in familiar surroundings with familiar sights and smells
  • Avoid stressful travel, kennels, and sudden schedule changes
  • Skip exposure to unfamiliar dogs in group settings
  • Receive one-on-one attention from a sitter or private dog walker

Senior Dogs

Support for medications and special care routines.

Dogs Who Prefer Home

A calmer option for dogs who get stressed by boarding, daycare, or unfamiliar group settings.
