“Gaye was incredible with our anxious dog. She was patient and calm and made him feel safe while we were away. Now he LOVES her. We will definitely be using her 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!”


“Robin took care of our cats for a week while we went on our first vacation. We were so nervous to leave them for that long. Once again, she was the best and we are so grateful for her. Not only did she send pictures, updates and took care of them, but we came home to the house in order and cat trash taken care of. She is by far the best!!! Thank you Robin for everything!”



“As always, Gizmo looks forward to her visits with Katherine. There is plenty of play time, love and attention so I feel comfortable going on vacation. 10 out of 10!!!!”


“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.”


“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.”


About: I've taken care of pets professionally since I was college-aged, worked in 2 kennels with additional care given via baths, nail trims, etc. Have also owned dogs and cats all throughout my life. Comfortable with all sizes. I work from home, so I'm available all day to take care of your pet! I have a 1 year old black Labrador who is so sweet and loves to play, so hopefully they can wear each other out! I have a fenced yard and a black Lab that is very sweet and friendly to keep your pet company! She's probably more excited to see them than I am! You can expect frequent potty breaks, administered medicine I'd needed, and lots of playing!

“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!”


About: I've had animals since I was little, cats, dogs, reptiles, ferrets, and I've loved them all as if they were my children, specific dietary or exercise needs is no problem for me. A pet to me is a part of the family. I'm currently working part time, available Monday through Friday on most weeks, I'll house sit for up to a week and a half. I currently don't have a license because of covid slowing me down, but I am working on it and someone can drop me off at the location. I have a fenced backyard and my childhood dog had many issues later on in life so dietary or medication is no issue for me. The family dog I have now is the most stubborn dog I have ever met, having to work with him has taught me how to deal with stubborn or slightly aggressive dogs.

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 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: I am reliable, loving, and attentive, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I feel pets are part of the family and I do allow them on my furniture and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I have over 26 years of experience raising my own pets to identify sickness and can administer meds (including insulin shots) if needed. Your fur babies will be my top priority and I promise to care for them like they are my own. I am available for watching your fur baby in my home to include overnight or coming to your house (not overnight), walks, or other care you may need. My schedule is flexible and will accommodate your needs. I have a privacy fenced yard and 4 sweet pups of my own to keep your dog(s) company. My property has multiple video cameras for security and I can send you photos and videos while you are away or FaceTime with you so you can see your babies are having fun and being well taken care of and loved. I understand pet care very well as I have had 8 fur babies previous to the 4 I have currently from big dogs to little dogs. I am very aware of changes in behavior or if fur babies aren’t feeling well and will communicate with you if I think your baby is not feeling well.

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 dropped in on my 3 boys while my sitter was working and she was absolutely wonderful. She gave the boys report cards each visit to update me with lots of photos, and provided reassurance that they were okay when left alone overnight for the first time ever. She was even willing to make an additional visit when I thought we were going to be home later than anticipated. Will 100% be booking with Leah again!”


“Yolanda was absolutely wonderful. We had an unexpected event and had to put one of our dogs down right before we left. We were so worried about leaving our other dog alone with without the other one. When we told her about this and Yolanda made sure that our little girl was taking care off. She went over and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable. I can tell that our dog Mixie had the best time. Highly recommend Yolanda she’s the absolute best.”


About: I have had cats in my family for about thirteen years and I’ve had a dog for seven. My first dog was a German shepherd/lab/pit bull mix, and my second a full bred GSD, so I’m used to lots of long walks. I also love to play with dogs whether it be tug of war or fetch and am also able to do basic obedience training with your pup while in my care. As far as grooming goes, I have experience clipping claws and brushing the dreaded double coats. What sets me a part from the average sitter is I’ll do my best to make sure your pet enjoys its time with me. I will do my best to learn their personalities, likes, and dislikes. I’m also able to provided any medications as needed! If you as owners are gone for an extend period of time it can be stressful for pets, I do my best to ease any potential stress they may have. I work as a Personal Trainer as well, so I availablity throughout the day based off my clients schedules. Especially during those early afternoon times when let’s haven’t been walked since morning. I would treat my clients pets the way my clients would treat them. Adhering to any special instructions and making sure the pets are healthy and happy. I own my own business and am able to check/take care of your pup during the day. They will never be left alone more than a few hours to help reduce boredom and stress I am building a fence here soon and am able to provide your dog with walks, fetches, and hikes. I am able to adapt to your pets needs

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 14. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, and senior pets who need a gentler approach. I always take the time to get to know each dog's personality so I can give them the attention and care they deserve. Whether it's a long walk or quiet cuddle time, your dog’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I’m a recent college grad with 8 years of pet care experience. I love helping people and their pets feel at ease; whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. I’m flexible, reliable, and here to keep your furry family happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! Whether in my home or yours, I always prioritize the safety and comfort of your pet.

“Larissa aka Lacey is absolutely wonderful with any sort of pet. Whether it be dogs, cats, reptiles, or even ferrets.....she has years of experience in pet care. Give her a shot, I'm sure you will be more than pleased with the care she'll offer!”


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.”


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 overnight sat for my dog. I have a very protective and reactive Australian Shepherd who barks and lunges every time someone enters the home. We have a very short list of people who can help with him because it takes confidence to not be intimidated by his antics. She does very well with Roo and follows all instructions on his care, would definitely recommend!”

Mount Lena pet parents share their Rover experiences
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Mary as our pet-sitter for the past five years. During that time, Mary has provided drop-in visits during the day and home stays when we’re away. She takes amazing care of our golden retriever and three outdoor cats. Mary is incredibly reliable, flexible with our sometimes last-minute scheduling needs, and has a natural understanding of animals. It gives us real peace of mind knowing our pets (and home) are in such capable hands while we're away. She's not only great with animals—calm, confident, and clearly experienced—but also reliable and easy to work with. We highly recommend her as a pet-sitter.
