Pet care experience

Pleasant Valley Farm

As the proud owners to two wonderful little rescue dogs, a cat, some chickens, guinea fowl, goats and sheep, we know how hard it can be sometimes to find care for your pets and farm animals while you are away. We will provide the same level of care and kindness that I would want and expect for our own spoiled pets. Trust is an important part of pet care and petsitting, and we want you to be able to confidently, and without worry, leave your pampered pups and kitties in our care. We live on a small farm in rural Western Maryland, about 20 minutes west of Frederick. We have experience with all kinds of animal care, from horses, cows, goats, sheep, and poultry. We are currently able to provide drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals, as well as house or farm sitting, and in home boarding, as well as hourly dog park style use of our large fenced yard. Your pets will be a happy addition to our family in our home! Our whole property is fenced by 4 ft or taller board and wire fencing, with smaller areas sectioned off in the front and back yards. The driveway is gated and secure. We want your pets to feel as safe as our own. Leah and Andrew are both available for petsitting services.

Marshmallow was well loved and had a great time playing with his new friends while we were gone. Thank you Leah!

Leah was just fantastic! I had a situation arise that precipitated the need to find someplace for my two boys a.s.a.p. and I am so thankful she was available. She treated them like her own, and they got along well with her two little fur babies too. They must've had a LOT of fun pn her beautiful property because they basically slept for the next 24 hours. So happy to have found Leah and it's great that she is so close too.
