“Kristen has been so amazing with Sulley! He is normally hesitant around new people and he took to her so quickly! She is great at playing with him and respects my instructions. She is empathetic and goes beyond to help — even my sweet four year old cat who is afraid of everyone immediately walked out to greet her! She is going to be a regular visitor for Sulley and myself. ❤️”
“Andrea was great with Mo. She played Frisbee and walked the yard with him. She also updated us on Mo's grumpy roommates, the cats. We appreciated all the extra she did. Great first experience with Rover.”
“Katie was great! I didn’t worry about our pups at all while we were gone. She even picked up mail and cleaned a couple things for us. She sent photos daily and our pups loved her!”
“We asked Christine to stop by and reacquaint with the pups since it’s been a while since she stayed with them. She was prompt, professional, and very kind and attentive to our dogs. They were happy to see her! As pup parents know, finding someone you can trust to stay with your fur babies is priceless. Christine is great!”
About: I've taken care of pets professionally since I was college-aged, worked in 2 kennels with additional care given via baths, nail trims, etc. Have also owned dogs and cats all throughout my life. Comfortable with all sizes. I work from home, so I'm available all day to take care of your pet! I have a 1 year old black Labrador who is so sweet and loves to play, so hopefully they can wear each other out! I have a fenced yard and a black Lab that is very sweet and friendly to keep your pet company! She's probably more excited to see them than I am! You can expect frequent potty breaks, administered medicine I'd needed, and lots of playing!
“Karen left a great first impression with my kitty and I! She asked and answered all our questions, spent some nice cuddle time with Mister, and gave me confidence about her future visits. Many thanks Karen!”
“This is our second (or third, I can’t remember!) time using Allison to take care of our cat Edgar and we LOVE her! Allison is so responsive and sends great updates and pictures, which always makes me feel so much better about leaving Edgar! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Ximena is wonderful! She gave us plenty of support and advice as we transitioned to becoming dog owners in December 2025! Our dog Daisy loved Ximena from the very first time she met her! Ximena is very intuitive with a dog or pet’s needs. She always used positive reinforcement to guide Daisy in commands. She is always patient, gentle and kind with animals. She even gave Daisy a gift when she had moved farther away. Honestly we were so devastated that Ximena would not be able to walk Daisy anymore. We have had other dog walkers but no one as consistent and sweet as Ximena. She always sends lots of photos and detailed messages about the walks. We wish she could still be walking Daisy! We highly recommend Ximena if you need care for your pet!”

About: Hi! I’m Bridgid, a caring and reliable dog sitter with a beloved pup of my own. I know how much pets mean to us, so I’ll treat your dog like family — walks, playtime, and cuddles, all in the comfort of your home. Happy, stress-free pets while you’re away! I currently work 3 days a week, so 4 days of my week I am free! My schedule is different every week, but it is scheduled 6 weeks at a time which gives plenty of time to plan! I offer services conveniently only at the client’s own home, because I have a dog of my own who I will keep separate! Safety is priority!
About: Hi, my name is Jadyn and I am the perfect fit for your pet! I have a 12 year old pit bull that I’ve been loving and taking care of for years, as well as a new 6 month old addition to the family. I love all animals from massive to small and I would be lucky to work with you to take care of your loved ones I am currently a college student at Shepherd University with my most busy day of the week being Wednesdays. I am very adaptable and willing to run back to your home in between classes to ensure your pet is well taken care of. Whenever I take on a new service, I prefer to meet the per first in order to establish a little bit of familiarity between the two of us in a relaxed environment. I love to take dogs on long walks and play with puppies or otherwise energetic dogs. I also like to relax and chill with a cat. I am very attentive to what you would like me to do with your pets; and I always reach out in case of any confusion, or just to check in and send you pictures of your pet.
“Laura is excellent! She came by for two meet and greets, for the visit was always on time, and the dogs were well taken care of. She's great at filling out the care card and keeping us informed of the visits. Highly recommend, I will use again!”
“Rosie watched my cat, Aria, a second time for the holidays. Aria is typically pretty shy around folx, but she is super cuddly, happy, and laid back around Rosie, and they seem to have had a great bond both times Rosie has catsit. Rosie was super sweet and on top of providing me with updates and pics. Highly recommend and will continue to use her in the future.”
“Tyra responded quickly and stopped by to check in on my sweetie! She went above and beyond, even took him for a walk!! I truly appreciated her help at the last minute! Thank you so much!”
About: I have a reputation at the dog park for the dogs flocking to me as I arrive. I teach them to jump through the agility equipment and roll over. I run with them and give them plenty of scratches and hugs. Our late dog was my hiking companion along the C&O Canal (a five minute walk from our house), local segments of the Appalachian Trail, local parks and the woods and historic district of Harpers Ferry. I’m currently looking for daily opportunities to spend more time with dogs and provide the opportunities they need for exercise and human companionship. I’m very keen on early morning and evening walks during the summer but available most days. Our late dog was a shepherd/retriever mix,I regularly took her to the dog park to play with her friends or to run the short agility course I trained her to run when she was young. I am always on the lookout for poison ivy or possible tick habitats and careful to help the dog manage in potentially stressful situations along the way. I always stop at street corners and do not proceed until all cars have passed (even the ones that insist you go first) so that the dog will understand that we do not cross the street when cars are present.

Eric S.
“You could not ask for a better pet sitter and pet lover than Eric S. He is drawn to dogs especially and they to him. At the local dog park we call him the dog whisperer, because when he walks in the gate, all of the dogs run to meet and greet him. I guess it doesn't hurt that he carries treats in his pockets! But, even without the treats, they automatically go to him! He and my Franz (a Bernadoodle) are best buds and Eric has him sitting, staying, jumping fences and through hoops, and rolling over at the slightest command. Eric recently lost his own dog, Lucy, prematurely to cancer. Since then, he's been asking all of us if he could borrow our dogs to go for walks! He's always prompt and responsible, and he carries water (and treats of course unless you tell him not to!). The dogs always come back wagging their tails in delight and very sorry to see him leave. Franz watches him from the living room window as he leaves and goes down the sidewalk, already missing his friend and eagerly awaiting his return. You could not ask for a more sensitive, caring and compassionate and responsible person to care for your animals.”
