““Auntie G” has been an absolute blessing for us and little Bodhi now for 8 months! She is always keeping us in the loop with updates and photos! I know he’s in the best hands when she’s with him! We trust her completely! Whether he wants to play or just wants to snuggle she is up for it all!”


“Mandi did a fantastic job. Not a single traumatized critter. I can really tell from the pics and my critters’ demeanor, they were cared for lovingly. I cannot recommend Mandi higher! My dog is a teacup who was previously attacked by a pitbull and is weary of new people. Mandi was patient and gentle with Gilbert until she had gained his trust. I am very impressed and pleased with Mandi and will use her again.”


“Lauren was super responsive and took great care of our very energetic 2 1/2 year old German Shepherd. Our dog was very well cared for and happy with two daily walks and feeding. I recommend Lauren and give her 5 stars for a green job.”


“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. ❤️”


“This was our first long trip (1 week) away from our boy and we couldn't be more pleased with the care given by Robin! She obviously loves all animals, but she actually has bonded with Toby judging by his behavior reported during the visits. She gives excellent daily write-ups and photos which gave us great comfort while overseas. We will definitely use her services again and highly recommend anyone reading this to do the same.”


“Rebecca was amazing! She was flexible with a short notice change and it was much appreciated! Dependable and right on time! I loved the feedback and pictures! Will definitely book with her again!! Thank you so much, Rebecca! 🌟”


“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.”


“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.”


“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!”


“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.”


“Dee took great care of my Cocker Spaniel and cat during a drop-in visit and she took the time to befriend them and make them comfortable. I will be checking with her in the future for more drop-in visits!”


About: I'm Hannah! I have two boys, ages 3 and 7. My kids are great with dogs as we have been doing Rover for over 6 years. We are dog lovers and we would love to have your doggy in our home while you are away! I can offer as much or as little outside time that’s needed. Your baby will be in great hands while you’re away and you won’t miss a beat with all the pictures that are sent your way. Your dog will get a lot of outside time, exercise, play time, snuggles and freedom. Please feel free to message me with any questions or special requests. (: I have a flexible work schedule and work from home 3 days a week. We love to be outdoors playing but are also completely fine staying inside and relaxing. We treat any dog in our home like family. We try to make them feel as comfortable as possible as we understand that being out of their home and away from their owners can cause different behaviors such as anxiety, sadness, hyperness, etc.

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 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: 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!

“Stephanie was awesome! I had to book her last minute and was worried because I rarely if ever leave my babies behind but she sent me updates and made me feel comfortable. Would definitely use again when I have to”


“Tiffany was super friendly and took great care of my dog while I was at work. I really appreciated the updates, pictures, and the peace of mind knowing my pup got some fresh air and attention during the day. Will definitely be booking again—highly recommend!”


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.

“Sent multiple photos everyday. Did everything I asked for. Very nice. My cat was very happy!”


Kathleen W.
“Kathleen is a very loving pet owner and pet care and house sitter provider. She is responsible and looks to provide the best care possible for your furry friends. 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.”


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 can recommend Ronda P. without hesitation. She has looked after my beloved pets, Coco, my chocolate Lab, and my two tabby cats, Kiki and Jazzy on multiple occasions while I traveled. Each time, I returned to find them relaxed, happy, and clearly showered with affection. Ronda’s heart for animals is obvious the moment she meets them. She learns their routines, favorite toys, and quirks, then sticks to those details so my babies feel completely at ease. She sends thoughtful updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind during my time away. I always knew Coco had enjoyed plenty of fresh air and playtime and that Kiki and Jazzy had their daily cuddle sessions and cookies. Beyond the basics, Ronda goes the extra mile. She keeps water bowls sparkling clean, sweeps up litter that makes its way outside their litter boxes without being asked, and makes sure leashes and toys are stored neatly. If one of my pets needs medication or special care, she handles it reliably. Her calm, upbeat demeanor is steady reassurance that my fur kids are safe and adored. In short, Ronda is: • Exceptionally caring and attentive • Organized and dependable with schedules and instructions • Great at communication and photo updates • Experienced with both dogs and cats, including seniors and pets with special needs If you are looking for someone to treat your pets like her own, choose Ronda. They will be in the best hands possible, and you will enjoy true peace of mind.”
