“Mandi is friendly, dependable and will love your animals like they are her own. She was easy to speak with and even worked with us in regards to our multi-cat household. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. 5-star service.”
“Gaye was a fantastic! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and took great care of my shy cat during my trip. Even though my cat tends to hide from visitors, Gaye was patient and really put in the effort to make her feel comfortable. It was reassuring to know my cat was being well cared for while I was away. I would definitely recommend Gaye and plan to hire her again for my next trip!”
“Robin took care of our cats and house while we were on a two-week vacation. She went above and beyond and then some to help us feel at ease while we were away. I especially appreciated her great communication before and during our trip. We always looked forward to the daily reports that included her write-ups and pictures of the cats. We would absolutely recommend Robin to anyone that needs pet-sitting, and if you don't have pets, we recommend you get pets so that you can have Robin take care of them.”
“I’ve never used Rover before and I was a little hesitant to leave my boy for a week but everything went really well! I got plenty of pictures everyday which made me feel better and when I got home he didn’t seemed stressed or like I was even gone for a week (that’s a cat though lol). I will definitely book Katherine again for any upcoming trips!”
“Cari was amazing with our shy senior cat and giving her meds. Our other boy loved her and followed her around by the second day. Our pets were well cared for! We will definitely reach out to Cari if we have another trip!”
“This was our first time using Rover - Arnaldo was very easy to work with and took great care of our pets! We got photos of them and updates whenever something happened (you know how cats overeat & get sick…). We will definitely be contacting him again for future pet-sitting needs.”
“I've been with Rover for over a decade and have been on both sides--needing pet care and giving pet care. Deann sets a new standard for care, communication, dependability, knowledge, and being a joy to work with. She was exceptional in every definition. I will be a regular with her!”
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 treat every animal as if it were my own Either letting a cat sit on my lap until I can’t feel my legs Or training in basic commands and manners To throwing a ball or stick until my arm is numb I love animals and all the fun that goes with it ** I did have to raise my rates due to rovers fee** I have been taking care of animals since I was little but really got into it around 7th and 8th grade Walking peoples dogs and putting up flyers at my local pool I have many repeat clients for over 3 years so many great pups(had to stop because of highschool) I helped a lot of them loose weight from daily 20-30 minute walks I still remember every dog I walked and boarded Nothing has changed except now I work morning shift as a security guard but my wife is home to take care of any dogs kept with us After I’m done with work I then take over with walks and playing in the backyard Everyone will get plenty of water If anyone gets dirty then it’s bath time or at least a good thorough wipe down Your pets will be treated like my own kids while they are being taken care of with the Diamond family After I’m done with work at 2pm I come home and spend all the time I have until bed time with my animals or as I call them my kids Walking playing in the backyard playing fetch and tag and even keep away which never lasts long for me I have a fenced in yard and plenty of toys to offer When it’s very hot we do some playing in the yard and then it’s time for a walk and then we take a 45 minute to an hour break for a nap or rest and then we do it all over again All animals should feel welcome in my home and spoiled decently as my animals are All animals that stay with me must have a collapsible crate brought in with them so that nobody gets into anything they shouldn’t at night Night time is crate time as we have cats we let wander at night
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 grew up with dogs and have trained up two puppies in the last five years, one of them was a hunting dog. Currently I have a four-year-old tabby named Coco! I love to be active and play outside but I’m also happy to just sit and love on your fur babies, throw around toys or whatever makes your animals happy! I typically work Monday through Thursday until about 3 PM. I’m happy to do evening care if you’re working late or if you need someone for a long weekend to pop in! I am a big fan of the philosophy, meet people or in this case pets where they are. I pride myself on being respectful, and will essentially do whatever is asked of me, to make your animal or fur baby the most comfortable!
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.
“Leah was a great cat-sitter! Very easy to work with, she made fast-friends with our cat, sent us reassuring updates each day, even a picture of his litter box (as only a pet owner would appreciate!) We felt very good being away while knowing that she was taking care of our little bundle of furry fun. I will definitely be using Leah again in the future! Thank you Leah!!!”

Kathleen W.
“Kat has always been a lover of animals. Our family fostered rescue dogs and she became a primary caretaker for these abused animals. She has a special cat who claimed her early and has bonded with her completely. When not busy with work or pet sitting she has volunteered at the animal shelters to spend time with animals awaiting their homes. She is responsible and on time and often does little extras such as sweeping or dishes.”
Jacob D.
“He sends me pictures of our fur babies when we were out of town for a wedding and gave us updates so there was no need to worry Even asked if he could stay longer with the dogs until they fell asleep so they didn’t worry or whine when he left ❤️ That’s true service!”
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.”

“Tiffany was great with our 2 cats. She sent lots of pictures and gave me an update every day so we knew they were ok. I will definitely book Tiffany again.”

Taylor G.
“Taylor has been watching our high energy/anxiety Australian/German Shepherd dog mix for six years now! She does drop ins and has stayed in our home with our dog when we’re out of town. We trust her completely - she takes such good care of our fur baby that we call her his “Auntie Taylor.” Our baby is 70 lbs and he can be difficult to handle, but she reinforces his training, keeps him happy, and takes great care of our home too. Taylor has lots of experience with dogs and cats from raising her own and from training hunting dogs - if you need her to keep your dog sharp while you’re away, she’s great at it. Our fur baby LOVES Taylor and I know yours will too. I could not recommend her more!”
Carly R.
“Very friendly, punctual, and great with animals. Would hire Carly again.”
Ronda P.
“I have worked in rescue with a Ronda for 12 years. I could always count on her to do exactly what was expected as a volunteer and foster parent. She was responsible, caring, and loving. I knew when she agreed to take in a foster she would do whatever it took to do the best for the dog. She loved and cared for them as her own. I trusted her with countless dogs we took into the rescue and I would trust her with my own dogs. She is a gem and you would be lucky to have her as a part of your organization.”
Kylee L.
“Kylee is our go to, when we need to have someone watch our cat. She’s dependable and gives us a peace of mind that Shkoda is well taken care of.”
