Our Story

Founded in 2002 Benji’s Pet Sitters vision and goal have remained the same: to provide the very best care for all of your pet(s)! Our sitters have been background checked, love animals and are First Aid and Fear Free Certified. The owner started Benji’s after seeing a need for quality pet sitters that are caring, dependable and trustworthy. As true animal lovers, we work to enhance the human-animal bond and to provide superior pet care you can trust and depend on. Whether your furry friend is new to potty training, extra energetic or just misses human interaction while you are hard at work (or out playing with your friends), you can have peace of mind knowing your pet(s) are happy and well cared for.

We take your pet's health, emotional wellbeing, and safety seriously

Our variety of services allows your pet(s) to stay in their familiar environment with all of the sights, sounds, and comforts of their home! We offer professional pet sitting, dog walking and overnight services for Howard County's best kept pets! Our goal is to provide you with peace of mind knowing your pet(s) are in loving, dependable hands while you are away. Pets are family and deserve to be treated that way!

We will never advertise that you are away from home by driving a wrapped car or putting advertising magnets on our vehicles while pet sitting. All of our sitters are fully insured, bonded, first aid certified and have the knowledge, professionalism and expertise to care for your beloved pets.

“We have been using Benji’s for over 4 years, and it has been a pleasure to work with all of the sitters. Everyone at Benji’s cares our babies like they are their own. Everyone goes above and beyond with Sam and Bree and they are always super excited to see their sitter. I love the fact that someone is accessible by phone or text in the event I need to check in with them regarding the dogs and if our regular sitter is busy there is another sitter that can help us out on short notice. Our family highly recommends Benji’s!”

“Benji’s has been helping us since 2010, and we couldn’t be happier. They’re responsive and extremely responsible; when they say they’ll do something, they actually do it. Most importantly, they treat our Daisy as if she’s a member of their family.“

“I can't say enough good things about these ladies. We use them all the time to help us out when life gets a little too crazy to walk the dogs or when we are both out of town. I knew they were great but they even helped me look for one of my cats when he got out, which pretty well proves they actually care about my animals. The dogs adore this team and my cats do too. It is rather difficult to tell what the fish think, but I suspect they love them too!”

“I really appreciate having the same sitter every time we leave town, but LOVE that Benji’s has multiple sitters that can always accommodate last minute requests if our sitter isn’t available for some reason.“

“We love Benji’s! We hate being away from our fur kids, but know when we are away, they are well taken care of. They are also great at accommodating last minute requests. Thank you so much for all of your help.”
