“Gaye was incredible with our anxious dog. She was patient and calm and made him feel safe while we were away. Now he LOVES her. We will definitely be using her again!!”


“Mandi was incredibly perfect for my family! I booked her for my parents while I was a few states away, and Mandi was awesome at communicating and setting up a visit with my parents! Their cat (was originally my cat, but my other cats would chase her) has a habit of grabbing her tail which leaves some minor scratches and requires some ointment application. Mandi applied it as needed and let us know when that was! She was also able to adjust her visits as my parents ended up leaving later than anticipated, and got back a day early. I would most certainly recommend Mandi for your pet sitting needs!”



“As always, Gizmo looks forward to her visits with Katherine. There is plenty of play time, love and attention so I feel comfortable going on vacation. 10 out of 10!!!!”


“For our first time using rover we were very pleased with Cari and the services provided. I felt comfortable with leaving my animals in her care. All her visits were right at the time agreed upon and the dogs were well taken care of with updates at every drop in.”


“Kelly is amazing and my GSD King loves her. She is timely and flexible and gives the best love to my main man. I receive pictures of her visit and that makes me happy. I would HIGHLY recommend Kelly with your fur baby.”


“Arnie is incredible! He came over a few days before my first booking to meet my 2 dogs. My senior dog warmed right up to him, and my 3 year old rescue even allowed some scratches and to be held. I was able to tell they both felt safe and secure with Arnie around. My senior needs a little extra help up and down the stairs, and I’m still working on leash confidence with the 3 year old. These things didn’t faze Arnie or stand out as a problem. He was ready to tackle them head on. This made me feel safe and secure knowing my babies would be in goods hands with him. I’m so thrilled that Arnie will be a buddy for my pups, and give me some peace of mind when I have a long work day!”


About: I've had animals since I was little, cats, dogs, reptiles, ferrets, and I've loved them all as if they were my children, specific dietary or exercise needs is no problem for me. A pet to me is a part of the family. I'm currently working part time, available Monday through Friday on most weeks, I'll house sit for up to a week and a half. I currently don't have a license because of covid slowing me down, but I am working on it and someone can drop me off at the location. I have a fenced backyard and my childhood dog had many issues later on in life so dietary or medication is no issue for me. The family dog I have now is the most stubborn dog I have ever met, having to work with him has taught me how to deal with stubborn or slightly aggressive dogs.

“Patten was a God send, since I had to pull last minute shifts with the wife being away for work. Daisy took to her so well and she really made sure to keep Daisy company and not just feed her take her out and leave for the day. She truly cared enough to play with Daisy and make sure that she ate all her food before she would take her out. Again cannot be more grateful how helpful and caring she was to Daisy.”


About: Hi I’m Kate! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life! Dogs, Cats, Birds, Reptiles, Ferrets, Rabbits, Hamsters, Chickens, and Goats! My childhood dog was a toy poodle and now I have 2 German shepherds! All raised from pups. I’m comfortable working with all pet animals size or age doesn’t matter I love em! Im currently in college studying sports medicine, im hoping this can become a part time job for me! I am available Monday-Friday anywhere from 8am to 3pm. Your fur baby has my best interests! Whether we’re on a walk or just checking in, I’ve worked with harnesses and collars. My animals are my life and I 100% understand that they’re your’s too!

About: I have several years of personal and professional pet care, but a lifetime of love for animals! I take humble pride in being the stranger that your critter who "never comes out to see anyone" is suddenly on my lap. I've cared for critters of all kinds, sizes and temperaments. Have any questions, shoot me a message! Looking forward to meeting you and your fuzzy or scaly loved ones. I am seeking to make this a 25-35 hrs/week gig with multiple clients. My availability is very flexible and open at this given time (June 2025). I commute between an apartment in downtown Hagerstown and St Mary's County (Wildewood) and care for my family's German shepherd (Freya) and teddy bear (Odin) about 1-2 days a month in W.V. Those dates are preplanned. I'm an early bird, up around 4:30-6 AM. I have a low maintenance mainecoon so she grazes all day and has plenty to do till I come home for my own kitty snuggles. I can only care for your pets on their turf or if you allow it, to take them to public parks. Both of my residences do not allow additional boarding. I personally wouldn't mind, but, rules are rule. I'm very adaptable and would love to keep any routine you have with your pets. From nicknames, babytalk, several walks a day, a bath etc... Write down your desired routine for Fido/Whiskers and I'll do my best to keep them entertained and comfortable until you're back home.

About: I am reliable, loving, and attentive, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I feel pets are part of the family and I do allow them on my furniture and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I have over 26 years of experience raising my own pets to identify sickness and can administer meds (including insulin shots) if needed. Your fur babies will be my top priority and I promise to care for them like they are my own. I am available for watching your fur baby in my home to include overnight or coming to your house (not overnight), walks, or other care you may need. My schedule is flexible and will accommodate your needs. I have a privacy fenced yard and 4 sweet pups of my own to keep your dog(s) company. My property has multiple video cameras for security and I can send you photos and videos while you are away or FaceTime with you so you can see your babies are having fun and being well taken care of and loved. I understand pet care very well as I have had 8 fur babies previous to the 4 I have currently from big dogs to little dogs. I am very aware of changes in behavior or if fur babies aren’t feeling well and will communicate with you if I think your baby is not feeling well.

About: I have over 25 years of dog breeding experience and I would love to care for your loved ones in our home. Large home and plenty of running room in our spacious yard. I cannot take care of male dogs over 30 lbs due to a female dog in the household. I can take care of female fur babies of less than 30 lbs. I work from home and have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention he or she needs. Taking care of dogs are my specialty. I have a fenced in yard and a female lab who loves to go for walks and play. Your fur baby will have plenty of friends caring for him or her.

About: I have had dogs all my life, from German Shepherds, Cocker Spaniels, and now Golden Retrievers. Nine years ago I decided to foster and do home visits for a rescue. I ensure they get vetted, groomed, and work with any behavior issues from being abused or neglected. I have plenty of patience and make sure above all else, they know they are safe and loved. That is all our fur babies want is to be safe, loved, and taken care of and the unconditional love you get in return is simply amazing. Let me take care of your fur baby and I know you will be glad you did. I’m retired now and just want to do what I love, taken care of fur babies. I can help you anytime, just let me know what you need. I have a fenced in yard, and two friendly Goldens at home that get along with everyone. I can crate your dog if needed or they can have run of the house with mine. We have plenty of toys from ones to chew on, to several to play ball or frisbee outside. It doesn’t matter the age of your pet, I have had and adopted several older dogs, I love them all and they will get the best care. I have farm land in front of me to take them for walks if you would like that as well. Your pets will be well taken care of and safe.

From energetic dogs of all sizes to the unique needs of feline companions, I've developed a deep understanding of how to provide personalized attention and create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet. Whether it's playful walks and fetch for your pup or gentle grooming and interactive playtime for your cat, I'm dedicated to ensuring your furry friends feel loved, secure, and happy in my care.

Your pup will be well taken care of. Your pets will be taken care of per the instructions you provide and will be given adequate yard time and companionship to ensure they are safe and well

“Leah dropped in on my 3 boys while my sitter was working and she was absolutely wonderful. She gave the boys report cards each visit to update me with lots of photos, and provided reassurance that they were okay when left alone overnight for the first time ever. She was even willing to make an additional visit when I thought we were going to be home later than anticipated. Will 100% be booking with Leah again!”


“Yolanda was absolutely wonderful. We had an unexpected event and had to put one of our dogs down right before we left. We were so worried about leaving our other dog alone with without the other one. When we told her about this and Yolanda made sure that our little girl was taking care off. She went over and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable. I can tell that our dog Mixie had the best time. Highly recommend Yolanda she’s the absolute best.”

Katelyn O.
“While she hasn't watched my pets for me before I can say that she is beyond devoted to her own. All I ever hear about is how her pets are doing, how they're vet trip went, what she has to do next for their health, and what she wants to do next for they're wellbeing and enjoyment. If given the opportunity and materials she could and will care for any pet.”

She has cared for dogs (large and small), cats, fish, and other small animals. She enjoys bonding with new animals and gaining their trust. She is neat in her habits and goes the extra mile to clean up any messes that arise. She has cared for our blind, deaf dog with compassion and understanding. I do not hesitate to recommend her for providing care for any animal.”

Bagtown pet parents share their Rover experiences
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Mary as our pet-sitter for the past five years. During that time, Mary has provided drop-in visits during the day and home stays when we’re away. She takes amazing care of our golden retriever and three outdoor cats. Mary is incredibly reliable, flexible with our sometimes last-minute scheduling needs, and has a natural understanding of animals. It gives us real peace of mind knowing our pets (and home) are in such capable hands while we're away. She's not only great with animals—calm, confident, and clearly experienced—but also reliable and easy to work with. We highly recommend her as a pet-sitter.
