“Emma was absolutely a blessing!! We booked Emma for pet sitting in our home with overnight stay!! Maggie has severe separation anxiety. Emma stayed with her 24/7 for 4 days and provided the best care and companionship for Maggie. She keep us updated with pics and check ins. She cleaned up after herself, even washing towels and sheets without being asked! I swear our house looked and smelled better than when we left! Emma is a beautiful soul who will care deeply for your pets. We will 100% book Emma again ❤️”
“I can't say enough great things about Katherine. We have used her services a few times now and she is wonderful. Whether it's for dog walking or pet sitting, she always sends us constant updates and pictures so we never have to wonder how our boys are doing. She goes above and beyond every time! I would definitely recommend Katherine to anyone in need of a sitter. She is fantastic! ”
“Evangeline was very accommodating to adjusting to the small time change i made. She was on time and stayed the whole time. Left the house spotless as well. Always answered any questions through text. She was great for my girls.”
“Lindsey was amazing with our dogs and she took great care of our house during her stay. She provided some training and reported their progress to me. The house looked the exact same as I left it (she left no mess behind). She washed the sheets on the bed and remade the bed. She cleaned all towels that she used and folded them for me. She was quick to respond every time I messaged her. I highly recommend Lindsey for any pet sitting or house sitting. You will not be disappointed.”
“Briana was great with our pups! She stopped by for a home visit before the dog sitting, and was great with communication before and during the stay. The pups looks happy and well cared for when we returned.”

“Virginia took care of our cat snd home while we were away for a week. She kept us updated about our kitty with daily photos and messages. She left the house tidy. We are very pleased with Virginia and will ask her to care for our cat and home in the future.”
“Leah was an incredible dog sitter! She is very friendly, and loving to animals. She came by first to meet my dogs and learn where everything is in my house. She took great care of my puppy Lilly who requires a lot of attention, and took great care of my Flip!! She sent me multiple updates throughout the day including pictures and video. She even taught Lilly a new trick while she was here, and that was just one day!! 10/10 recommend Leah.”
“Tiffany did so well with our girls! They were just as fat and happy when we got home as when we left! She sent pictures regularly and was excellent with communication! We will definitely be re-booking!”
“Lauren was friendly and even came a little early! I left for work knowing Diego was a happy pup in good hands. He greeted her with lots of kisses and even took the initiative to find out where cleaning supplies were after I mentioned Diego happy pees and cleaned up after him without needing to be asked. We will definitely be repeat customers! Thanks Lauren :)”
“Halee is wonderful! She is communicative and detail oriented. Both the pups and our house were well cared for while we were away, plus she even kept an eye out for our chickens. We’ll definitely book her again!”
“Billie has been amazing with my new Pup. She suffers from Separation Anxiety so having Billie Hope come and sit with her while we work through this has been a God Send. I HIGHLY recommend her.”
“Kat was exceptional with our dog Wrigley while we were on vacation abroad. She treated him as if he were her own pet, providing the utmost care and attention. Communication was smooth and efficient throughout our time away. We wholeheartedly recommend Kat to anyone in need of a reliable house or pet sitter!”
“So happy to have worked with Julia. She took care of our dog and left out house in great order. Sent us pictures and updates too! Will certainly hire her again if she is available.”
About: On Saturdays and Sundays I am free after 2pm due to work I treat every animal as if it were my own Either letting a cat sit on my lap until I can’t feel my legs Or training in basic commands and manners To throwing a ball or stick until my arm is numb I love animals and all the fun that goes with it ** I did have to raise my rates due to rovers fee** I have been taking care of animals since I was little but really got into it around 7th and 8th grade Walking peoples dogs and putting up flyers at my local pool I have many repeat clients for over 3 years so many great pups(had to stop because of highschool) I helped a lot of them loose weight from daily 20-30 minute walks I still remember every dog I walked and boarded Nothing has changed except now I work morning shift as a security guard but my wife is home to take care of any dogs kept with us After I’m done with work I then take over with walks and playing in the backyard Everyone will get plenty of water If anyone gets dirty then it’s bath time or at least a good thorough wipe down Your pets will be treated like my own kids while they are being taken care of with the Diamond family After I’m done with work at 2pm I come home and spend all the time I have until bed time with my animals or as I call them my kids Walking playing in the backyard playing fetch and tag and even keep away which never lasts long for me I have a fenced in yard and plenty of toys to offer When it’s very hot we do some playing in the yard and then it’s time for a walk and then we take a 45 minute to an hour break for a nap or rest and then we do it all over again All animals should feel welcome in my home and spoiled decently as my animals are All animals that stay with me must have a collapsible crate brought in with them so that nobody gets into anything they shouldn’t at night Night time is crate time as we have cats we let wander at night

Savannah was absolutely amazing with all 3 of my animals. Our one dog is very timid of people and Savannah did amazing with her and kept me updated throughout the entire week on the progress and how all of them were doing. Definitely recommend her for anyone in the Hagerstown area!
