“I used Rover for the first time for doggy day care over the 4th of July weekend 2022 while on vacation. I chose Janel based on her excellent reviews and the fact that she was conveniently located in DeepCreek/ McHenry, MD. I also loved that the dogs had full access to her home and even allowed on the furniture. Janel and her family welcomed my 50 pound female labradoodle with open arms as one of their own. I received photo's of My girl on walks and relaxing at the house which reassured me that she was in good hands. I previously used different company in the area and when picking up my dog she was very stressed and anxious. I assumed she may have been crated for some length of time. Not a good situation for an active 2 year old. She was the total opposite when I picked her up from Janel's home. Her tail was wagging and she was in good spirits. I am very pleased and feel fortunate to have found Janel and her family. I am a frequent visitor to the area and hope Janel's home will be a second home for Maya.  I'm so grateful for dog loving families like Janel's! Yolanda”

“We left our dog with Jessica for the day while we went rafting. The time we could pick her up at was pushed back multiple times, but Jessica was so flexible, kind, and understanding! Would definitely recommend her services”

“Thank you, Faith! Maybellene had such a great time and I knew she was in great hands while I was visiting family in the area. She was very responsive and flexible, and her home is a welcoming place for your pup. Looking forward to next time!”

“Amber was fantastic, very responsive and helpful for our trip on the GAP trail! Highly recommend, will be a repeat customer. Thank you”

“Megan was a total life saver when we needed unexpected coverage around the holidays! She’s great with communication and clearly experienced based on how she cared for our pup. Our dog even smelled better after spending the afternoon with her! Highly recommend!”

“Brian was super generous to accept us last minute. All interactions were positive. Brian was out on training but offered his spouse Erika (also here on Rover) to look after our dog Stella. Erika was amazing! She met us when we pulled up and greeted us. She is warm, kind and welcoming. Brian and Erika’s property is incredible. They have fenced in areas for runs and agility. Stella had the time of her life and I would return without hesitation. My only regret is we don’t live closer so we can come back my often. It was a great experience.”

About: I have had dogs & cats my entire life—all shapes, sizes & colors. I am passionate about providing loving and attentive support to pets of all kinds. I have experience administering medications, watching puppies, caring for seniors, you name it! Most notably, I pay close attention to those special pets who may need specific care. I am dedicated to making each pet's experience enjoyable and stress-free. I believe every pet deserves the best, and I will always strive to provide that with the utmost compassion and professionalism. My schedule is pretty flexible since I’m a student. I only have class on Monday-Wednesday leaving my schedule open almost entirely. I also have time those days too. I understand that some pets need fed on a certain schedule or let out more often than others. My open availability allows me to provide that. I understand the trust needed to allow a "complete stranger" into your home. I promise to make sure as though you and your pet don't feel as if I am a stranger. That being said, I prefer always meeting you and your pet before providing care. I will also treat your pet, and your home, as my own. Giving them and it the utmost care and respect.

“I originally came across Erika while looking to board my dog and cats before a work trip. Was lucky enough to secure the boarding and also come back for training for my dog. Erika was extremely helpful”

“Shayna did a absolutely fantastic job with Ruger. He is a big boy at 95 lbs. And can be Very intimidating....she handled herself like a complete professional. Highly recommend. Will use again”

“We live in VA but need a place for our dog to stay for the day in PA while we picked up my daughter at camp. Kristina was very flexible with some time changes since we were driving all day and Benson was well taken care of while we were at camp. We would definitely use her again if in the area.”

“Outstanding care - would definitely recommend Megan and ask for her exclusively when back in her area -”

“Kind women my dog loves her she really cares about animals my dog couldn’t have a better sitter she has a lovely yorkie beautiful dog well trained and mannered”

“Nichole is a very animal devoted person. She takes care of her animals and any animal she has contact with just as she would her own children and even considers them to be her children. She is very loving toward all animals that come into her life and would go above and beyond to make sure all animals on earth feel loved and cared for. She really does put her pets and children above her own needs.”

“Callie is a dear friend of mine for over 15 years now. She loves all animals and has her own fur babies, two dogs and two cats. She has veterinary technician schooling and really knows her stuff about animals. She is looking to work for herself and has decided to do what she does best and care for animals. She does really well with dogs and has always cared for all dogs as if they were her own. She would be an ideal candidate for any dog sitting or walking for your and your pets.”
