“Jeanie and Robert were great with Penny. They took good care of her and made sure she was a happy dog. I had some last minute change in plans and they were able to accommodate. Will be booking again!”
“Emily is incredible! My dogs stayed with her for a full week and came home well cared for, loved, and happy. They exercised every day in a safe, wide-open yard, and she really went above and beyond when they refused to eat at first, giving them soft food and diligently encouraging them to make sure they were comfortable. I cannot thank you enough, Emily!!”
“Charlie was an incredible dog sitter for my Boston Terrier, Huckleberry. From the start, he was kind, professional, and accommodating. I appreciated the regular photo updates of Huckleberry enjoying his time, especially at the park! Huckleberry loved hanging out with Charlie's two dogs, who were the perfect playmates. Even when I was late for pickup, Charlie was super understanding and flexible. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches, and I felt completely at ease knowing Huckleberry was in good hands. I highly recommend Charlie and will definitely book him again!”

About: I grew up in a dog-loving home—there was never a time we didn’t have a furry friend in the family. Since my very first pet, I’ve enjoyed caring for animals. Now as an adult, I have two dogs and a cat of my own. One of my pups is a sweet senior who enjoys the slower pace of life, and the other is a high-energy guy I’ve raised since he was a puppy. We went through all the training together—lots of patience, consistency, and treats!—and now he’s a well-behaved, happy companion who keeps me on my toes. My cat is curious and full of personality, always finding new spots to nap and new ways to charm everyone. Fun Facts Just About Me: I moved to Hagerstown with my fiancé, 2 dogs and cat about 2 years ago. My fiancé and I are getting married in May 2026. I play adult softball and kickball. I love to be outside whether it's walking the dogs, attempting to garden or being on the water. Since I work from home, I’m lucky to spend lots of quality time with my pets throughout the day, and I’d love to extend that care and attention to your furry family members too. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a feeding routine, or just offering companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm, secure environment with a fully fenced yard that offers plenty of room for pets to run and play safely. We also have sidewalks throughout the neighborhood perfect for walks, a puppy play pen for supervised fun, and plenty of space to crate pets comfortably if needed. All areas are pet-proofed to prevent accidents, and I carefully manage food, toys, and any medications. When visiting a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure doors and gates are secure, hazardous items are out of reach, and I maintain open communication with owners about any special needs or behaviors. Building trust with pets and their families is important to me, so I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs.
“Love brining the dogs to Kayleigh. I feel she takes good care of them. She is quite accommodating and flexible. Very responsive and sends communication about them on a regular basis.”
“Our dog Mia had the BEST time with Ruth while we were on vacation. She sent me pictures every day and spoiled her! She had puppy ice cream, walks every day, and came home so happy. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! We will definitely return!”
“Donna and Scott’s care was exceptional and they definitely went above and beyond to make Ziggy feel at home. It was very stressful when we realized the family that usually watches him couldn’t take care of him. The thought of boarding him was upsetting and doing so would have ruined our vacation. Our vacation was great and Donna and Scott sent many pictures that really contributed to its success. Very caring people. We couldn’t be any happier.”
“My dog Darcy had a wonderful time at Marne and John’s home. Marne sent me updates with photos that eased my anxiety about his discomfort with being away from me. After awhile he came out of his shell and cuddled with the family and played with the other dogs. I appreciate all they did to make this possible!”
“Chanel was a guest with Min & Matt for a week! I got daily updates on her progress! She got lots of attention and great care! They treated her like family! She was spoiled rotten! I am so thankful I found these wonderful, kind, and caring couple! They are true animal lovers PLUS Min is a great photographer! She captured so many fantastic pictures of Chanel, I will be making reprints for my home! I am truly blessed to have found these folks I did not worry about Chanel the entire week I was gone!!’ I will use them again and again!💕💕💕”

Over 2 pet parents in Funkstown have booked dog boarding
Funkstown dog parents share their Rover experiences
There isn’t enough words of appreciation and gratitude to express about Heather & her fiancé. They not only provide exceptional care, they go above and beyond for our Potato. He is truly treated like a member of their family. They take him out for walks several times per day and that is way more than required. This provides him with more help than a lot of other dogs bc he’s a tri-pawd and needs it for keeping his strength up. He’s only 3 yrs old and has many years ahead of him. Lastly and most enjoyable is how Heather creates a story out of his stay with them and their precious dog Gordie! He has more adventures in a weekend stay than we can in a two week vacay. He’s been all over our town and has made friends all over establishments and on him and Gordie’s “patrols!” We are so blessed to have them as his sitter and friend. He is always smiling in their pics they post and having the time of his life and that is what all furbaby parents want while they are away from them.
