“I couldn't ask for a better experience than what I had with Mandi. I very much enjoyed reading her care card notes! She genuinely cares about pets and is an all around very kind hearted human being. ❤️ I would 100% recommend her to care for your babies in the event you need to be away from home. Thank you again for everything!”

Danielle M.

“Gaye was a fantastic! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and took great care of my shy cat during my trip. Even though my cat tends to hide from visitors, Gaye was patient and really put in the effort to make her feel comfortable. It was reassuring to know my cat was being well cared for while I was away. I would definitely recommend Gaye and plan to hire her again for my next trip!”

“Katherine was very responsive and communicative. My pet was very well taken care of while I was away. I’d recommend Katherine and would have her watch my kitty again, if she was able.”

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.

“I've been with Rover for over a decade and have been on both sides--needing pet care and giving pet care. Deann sets a new standard for care, communication, dependability, knowledge, and being a joy to work with. She was exceptional in every definition. I will be a regular with her!”

“Payten was on time for visits, and contacted me with questions when needed. I will use her again.”

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.

“Emily was awesome in reporting what was happening with my THREE cats, and in making needed changes in their routine. Knowing she was here really gave me peace of mind for my 9 day vacation in Ireland.”

About: I have over 25 years of dog breeding experience and I would love to care for your loved ones in our home. Large home and plenty of running room in our spacious yard. I cannot take care of male dogs over 30 lbs due to a female dog in the household. I can take care of female fur babies of less than 30 lbs. I work from home and have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention he or she needs. Taking care of dogs are my specialty. I have a fenced in yard and a female lab who loves to go for walks and play. Your fur baby will have plenty of friends caring for him or her.

In my home cats get daily litter scoop, meds, two feedings a day and ample cuddles. I have cats with severe anxiety and require more care. When watching other’s cats I treat them like they are my own and give them all the love they deserve.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I watch neighbors and family members dogs on a regular basis(feeding, walking, etc.). I love animals and being outdoors. Dog walking is one of my favorite activities that combines two areas of life I love! I am currently a full time college student and work part-time. My schedule allows plenty of flexibility, especially this summer without school! Mornings and evenings are preferred, but I am able to switch around my routine to accommodate your pup(s)! I have two cats who are very pet friendly! I am fully capable to accommodate anything your pet may need to ensure they are safe and loved while their owner is away!

“Carley was wonderful to work with...very attentive, punctual and caring. We will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I have had all kinds of animals, including cats, hamsters Bunnies, and dogs. My dog Meera has glaucoma. This means I have given her eyedrops three times a day since she was one. Giving medicine and other pet care is not always an easy task, but I’m always up for the challenge! I’m currently available any time after 3:30 on weekdays and anytime on the weekend but I am looking to be a lot more flexible Monday-Friday in the near future. Right now I have one cat and dog. My dog needs medicine in her eyes three times a day and is sensitive to most people. My cat is an indoor only cat but is able to go out in our closed in patio when the weather permits. They eat at the same time twice a day, half a can of wet food for each.

“Matthew is a wonderful pet sitter. He is friendly, easy-going, respectful and considerate of your pets’ needs and any worries. Matthew did everything we asked to take the best care of our cat. We will definitely use him again!”
