“Angela was great with the cats. She arrived on time each day, performed her tasks, and sent a report (along with pictures of the cats, which were nice to view). Would definitely use her services 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!”
“From the meet and greet I knew our four kitties would be in great hands and was the first time I felt comfortable about leaving them. The matriarch of the group needs pet as she eats and she actually ate for Gaye. She trusted her so the other three trusted her. Communication was great and we looked forward to seeing her pics of them when she checked in. Thank You for a relaxing vacation!”
“Robin is a wonderful pet sitter!! She took great care of our cat while we were away for two weeks. The check-ins and photos made us feel very reassured. Robin was thorough and professional! :)”
“Katherine was very responsive and communicative. My pet was very well taken care of while I was away. I’d recommend Katherine and would have her watch my kitty again, if she was able.”
“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. ❤️”
“We booked Cari again as she did such a great job with our cats on a previous trip! She gave us great updates daily on how they were doing and took time to play with them and clean up after them.”
“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.”
“Deann is kind, thoughtful, reliable, and prompt: all things you want in someone taking care of your furbabies in your absence! Our shy cat took to her almost immediately--an impressive feat! She followed our cat's special dietary needs to a T.”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She was so communicative and took some of the best pictures of my boys while we were away, allowing me to feel connected to them! Not that she was asked to, but felt compelled to after a fur ball debacle, vacuumed our carpet! She goes above and beyond to ensure your babies are in good hands! I am looking forward to rebooking her in the future!”
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: 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.

“Tiffany was great! Kitchen/food & litter left clean. My boy was alive and happy. Photos and updates were appreciated and eased my mind. Thanks 😊”
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.”
Evangeline N.
“Evangeline is a great communicator and awesome cat care taker. I am grateful to have found her and she has my recommendation!”
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!”
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.”
