“Thank you so much for taking such phenomenal care of Snoopy! You completely put our minds at ease from the start. The daily photo updates were great and put our minds at ease. It was clear that he was in good hands. Snoopy came home happy and relaxed and we will definitely be booking again!”
“I couldn’t have asked for more loving people to keep my fur baby while we were away! They treated Tater as though he was part of the family, and sent frequent photos and updates. I never had to worry about Tater’s happiness or wellbeing. Thank you all so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy! ❤️❤️❤️”
“We recently had to board our dog, Coco, with Joyce on very short notice due to a family emergency. We can’t thank her enough for her incredible care and support during this difficult time. From the moment we dropped Coco off, it was clear she was in good hands. Joyce was attentive, kind, and made sure Coco felt comfortable and loved. We truly appreciate the extra effort Joyce put into making our pup feel at home. We’ll definitely be returning for future boarding needs. Thank you, Joyce, for being such a wonderful host!”
“Bristoe had a ball! Thank you for having him! I loved the texts throughout my stay away from my boy. Theresa was very accommodating and easy to work with. Thanks again!! We look forward to future stays.”
“Our "teenager" Irish (1 yr old standard poodle) is an energy dynamo. Lora was his match with her loving attention and patience in the ideal environment she offers for the care of her guests. Her regular reports with photos and videos showed us Irish in play heaven with her, her husband, and the other guest dogs. He had a blast! And then after, thoroughly played out, Lora showed him to us in content in the place he chose to rest and sleep. We were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries and Irish certainly enjoyed his! And, there's no doubt, Lora enjoys being the host.”
“Candace is amazing at giving updates of my baby and making sure he is comfortable. Being a last minute booking, Candace still took my baby in and she’s very reliable. I will continue booking with her.”
“Heather was awesome. I was worried about Nova because I had no idea how she would respond to being put in doggy care while I was away on business to California as this was her first time and I worried about her size. She did great, Heather was wonderful. When the meet and greet went well, I was relieved. They took to eachother immediately. She, her husband and daughter made her feel like she was with family and let her be... I think she misses Heather and the goats and other diversifications she had on the farm. I will definitely be using her again, and this time Nova's sister Nala will be with her...”
“Phyo is a patient and excellent sitter! My dog, Tony can sometimes be a bit difficult, and Phyo was patient during our first meet and greet. He also lives in a great neighborhood, so you can be rest assured that you furry friend will have a great time staying with him. I will be using Phyo again!”
“Jena was AMAZING! My dog thoroughly enjoyed himself the week he stayed with Jena. She sent lots of pictures throughout his stay and kept in contact with us. I highly recommend her. She also has a very spacious backyard and there was a ton of play time and time outdoors. Cannot recommend her enough. We definitely will be booking with her in the near future.”
“Oliver was so loved by Svitlana and her family. I had regular updates and photos, and my dog seemed so comfortable and happy while there. Svitlana was very communicative, and I highly recommend her. We will be repeat customers for sure.”
“Rodney and Marissa were awesome with Bella, she was nervous, but they made her feel right at home. She had a good time with them meeting new friends and was able to be her playful self! Thanks so much guys”
“Silvia and Roberto were fantastic with Penny! The daily photos of Penny getting comfortable really put us at ease. We definitely plan to board her with them again.”
“Simon had a great day with Lonnie and the other dogs. He was so tired from playing, he didn't even hop on the couch with us that night. Lonnie was quick to reply, sent pictures and you can really tell he just loves dogs like his own. He also sat with Simon in a quiet space so S could eat his dinner. He has a tendency to not eat when he's busy busy with other doggies, so we really appreciated that. Would definitely recommend!”
“Mila was absolutely fantastic and treated Fluffy like her own dog! Our flight was delayed and we couldn't pick him up as scheduled. She was so accommodating and kept him another day. Mila even made him chicken soup for the extra day!! She went above and beyond. Fluffy loves his new grandmother, he barely looked at me when I saw him after a week :)”
“James and Mary were amazing with Scooter! They sent an update with photos throughout his stay! Scooter enjoys human attention and they showed genuine care. He also made a lot of dog friends. We will definitely be taking Scooter to Mary and James again and highly recommend them to others looking for a good place to leave their furry family member.”
“Curtis and Lindsay were great, sharing pictures and communicating the whole time we were away. Our pup appeared content, happy and tired out when we brought her home. Would definitely recommend!”
“Can’t thank Brandon enough for watching our dog when we went on vacation. Ace had some trouble adjusting to a new home but Brandon was patient and kind. Brandon is very responsive and gave updates just as requested.”
About: Simply put, I truly LOVE animals. I have always enjoyed spending time with, and playing with pets of all kinds. I will put your pets' needs above my own. I'm currently working full time, but I am usually home when not at work. I live 5 minutes away from my job, so I will always be available for your fur babies even while working if I need to be. I care for pets the same way I would care for a baby. Their needs are always more important than mine, and I will always make time for them. They also get plenty of attention and play time! Please note: I will have to crate them while at work. This is the ONLY time they will be crated. I will also be home around 1:30 for lunch to take your pet out for a potty break.
“We had a wonderful experience with Ayanna and her family! She was incredibly attentive and treated our boy with so much love and care—like he was part of her own family. You can tell she genuinely enjoys what she does. We’ll absolutely be back and highly recommend her services!”
“Terry was phenomenal! Our dog warmed up to him right away, and he kept us updated with pictures every day that she was with him. Would absolutely book him again the next time we're out of town!”

About: I have been in a home with dogs all of my life, as well as volunteered for shelters in my area. I am comfortable with caring for basic necessities and can administer certain medications if needed. I owned two dogs myself, who are the highlight of my life. Unfortunately, my cattle dog mix passed away in January 2025 due to unforeseen health problems, and I miss him every day, but I focus on making sure my surviving dog has the best life possible. 🖤 I am a basic obedience dog trainer, too. If your dog pulls on the leash while walking, we can talk about ways to fix that too. Being as I focus currently only on basic obedience, I can not assist with behavioral problems and will recommend a trainer who is more suited to help you. I know that you only want the best for your dog, and I could not agree more! I want to help you get the best dog you can out of your companion. I can work any day, anytime. I am new to Westminster and am getting to know the area but look forward to getting out there I have never had any issues with a pet escaping. If your dog has those kinds of impulses, I am prepared to teach them impulse control to help curb that behavior.
“At the last minute request, Kelly did a wonderful job taking care of our cats. She kept us in the loop with daily check-ins and pictures. She is very punctual, highly respected and honest. I highly recommend her.”
“Lani was wonderful with our two cats, Ruby and Pearl, while we were out of town. She sent us lots of pictures, which I love, and even watered some plants I wasn't able to get planted before leaving. She was always on time, as well - we're glad to have her as the kitties' sitter!”
“Wonderful is the best description. I have three dogs that they cared for at my home, while I was out of town. My oldest dog was treated with the needed TLC she required. The other two are very high energy and were given the attention they demand. I do not hesitate to recommend their services to others! My dogs have been complaining that I had to come home and stop their visits... :)”
“John is always so attentive and considerate! He asks for all the right info for your pets to be treated well while you're gone - which is always my (and I'm sure everyone else's!) biggest concern when I have to go out of town. He's great with cats!”
“Courtney was a perfect first-time Rover experience for our family! She sent frequent updates and went above and beyond with our cat's care. Courtney even went as far as to offer to check on the house after a particularly nasty storm. Thank you so much for your care and attention!”
“Impressed with Jordan’s ability to get my shy cat to warm up to her. My other cat has special needs and she handled it like a pro. She also sent detailed updates after every visit, which I loved. Will definitely hire again!”
“Noah is awesome. I was nervous to leave my kittens for the first time but Noah made sure I was comfortable. While I was away he sent lots of updates and pictures. I would definitely use him again.”
About: While I have no cats of my own, I've been around these sweet creatures my whole life! From barn cats to itty bitty foster kittens, to the skittish and "velcro" cats. I'm experienced with giving cats injections for things such as diabetes and oral medications for heart troubles. I also know how important it is to come back to a nice smelling home, so trust the litter box will be cleaned!!
About: I’ve been around cats my entire life. I grew up with a cat who lived to 22 years old, and on our rural property I also helped care for outdoor cats. My family rescued two different feral kittens over the years, and both became beloved indoor cats who lived more than 15 years. I understand that cats each have their own personalities, routines, and comfort levels—especially shy, older, or former outdoor/feral cats. I have also been cat sitting for years and know how important it is to keep their feeding, litter, playtime, medication, and attention routines consistent while their people are away.
“I was so happy to have Meghan (and her girls) take care of our cat while we were on vacation. They are fantastic. I highly recommend Meghan for your pet sitting needs!”
“Max was great! We felt at ease knowing our fur babies were in good hands while we were away. He exceeded our expectations and his love for animals is palpable 🥰 we will definitely rebook!”
“Lindsey was awesome! She stopped by a day prior to meet my feisty pet that doesn’t really let anyone touch her. The next day Lindsey started her shifts and my dog acted like she knew Lindsey from before! Awesome person. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Shaelin was awesome. She watched my 2 cats for the week of Christmas. She communicated well throughout the week and I came home to 2 happy cats. Would definitely use her again”
About: I’ve always helped out neighbors, coworkers, friends, and family friends with their pets. My simple pleasure is taking dogs on long walks and being outside. I’m currently working part time so I’ll be free for walks and playing with your animals very often. I’m easy to schedule if you need mornings, afternoons, or both! I take dogs on long long walks (at least a mile) I can of course do less if your dog isn’t up to the challenge. I love to play after a walk as well.
About: I grew up with a cat as part of the household. I've taken care of cats since I was 12. I have two cats that I rescued from my local shelter, they were the most difficult to place because of prior abuse before coming to the shelter. Now, they are among the most affectionate and friendly cats I've known. They get along with other cats after a couple of sniffs and a hiss on their part.

“Lora is such a great sitter, so responsive and knows my dog well. She’s got a great location and even on days where she’s busy she’s often got a helping hand to make sure all dogs are taken care of”
“I have never felt more comfortable with leaving my precious Corgi, Lugnut, than with Jim and Mary. It is evident as soon as you talk to them that they understand your dog is a family member. They are flexible with pick up and drop off times. The best part is they send pictures of the fun times throughout the day. I have used them many times, and are the first people I contact when we need someone to watch our pup. I could not sing their praises enough. Oh, and they have a fenced in back yard with a fence down the middle to create two play areas in case you have a shy dog, like my own. 5 stars isn’t enough to describe the wonderful experiences we’ve had!”
“Brianna was a joy to work with. We dropped our pup off in the morning and we were sent photos and updates which was wonderful. I strongly recommend Brianna if you’re looking for an engaged and thoughtful dog sitter. 10/10!”
“Sam was great! Greeted us on arrival and Arthur immediately bonded with her. Sent us photos during the day and he had a relaxing day. We would definitely have her watch Arthur if we were in the Gettysburg area again. Thanks Sam!!”
“Lonnie was great! He was so good with our dogs and I felt so comfortable leaving them with him knowing they were in good hands! They had so much fun and didn't even want to leave. We couldn't ask for anyone better for our dogs!”
“This was the first time my senior Cavalier was taken to “doggy daycare.” Susan was so wonderful with him and sent pictures mid-day to reassure me. She was very conscientious to understand any of his special needs as a senior dog. He is already scheduled to go back next week.”
“Rodney and Marissa are wonderful! They took such good care of my Benji. Benji is rather shy and does not have many opportunities to socialize with other animals. When I told Rodney about this he assured me that they would help Benji to be comfortable around their pets, and they did just that. They sent photos of Benji running in the yard with his new furry friend. They also made sure that Benji stayed on his eating and napping schedule. Benji will definitely be visiting Rodney and Marissa again.”
“Where do I begin? Superior experience from start to finish! Communication about Trixie’s stay included pics and info. I felt at ease and confident that my pup was in good hands being well taken care of. I highly recommend Terry if you need a safe, welcoming place for your pet. 5+ stars!!”
About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs for the last 15 years. I have raised pets from babyhood to seniorhood. I'll love your pets as if they were my own. After 12pm, your schedule is my schedule. I'm free when you need me, generally within tree days' notice. I'll even water your plants. and feed your fish, if you have any. When I am sitting for someone, I'll fallow all your instructions. If they need special accommodations, I will abide by them. I'll make them feel loved.
“Milo was nervous when I dropped him off but he quickly adjusted. Thank you Phyo for caring for him and taking him for walks. I would definitely recommend as I see you have a gentle way with pets.”
“So glad we found Lydia! Freya has had limited exposure to different sitters and was quite anxious when I dropped her off but Lydia and her children put her right at ease. She had a wonderful time, didn't even want to go home! I will definitely use Lydia again!”
“Arly has been going to Francine's for 2 weeks now and its been Great, she seems very happy and we're very satisfied with her quick transition there. Thanks Francine for your TLC of our baby girl :)”
“I love bringing Katara over for daycare! She always has a blast and never wants to leave. When I bring her home she is so tired from a long day of play. Thank you so much Sandra!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. My childhood cat lived to 22, and I grew up with Golden Retrievers, including helping care for a litter of puppies. I also worked as an assistant manager at a large pet daycare facility and now have two rescue dogs of my own. I’m very active and love walking, so I’m happy to give dogs plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention based on their needs. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work part-time in a flexible office role and can also work remotely, while I am building my real-estate career. That gives me the ability to plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and staying consistent with each pet’s routine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fenced yard, a large back porch, a walkable neighborhood, and a park nearby for walks and playtime. My two rescue dogs are used to sharing the furniture, so visiting pets will have plenty of comfortable places to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medication instructions, and any house rules—while keeping you updated with photos and messages. As a former college coach and admissions counselor, I have spent most of my career in trusted, responsibility-heavy roles, and I bring that same attentiveness and care to every pet.
About: Loving, Experienced Pet Care You Can Trust! With a lifetime of experience around animals, 2 years as a professional dog groomer, and two happy pups of my own, I provide compassionate and reliable care for your furry family members. Whether it's walks, grooming, or just quality time, your pet will feel right at home. As a mom of two animal-loving kids, caring for pets is naturally woven into our daily routine. Whether we’re out for a walk, heading to the park, or spending quiet time at home, animals are always part of the mix. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve—just like family. With us, your pet becomes part of an active, loving environment where they’re never just a task on a to-do list—they're a priority. I care for pets in my client's home the same way I care for my own—by being intentional, flexible, and tuned into their needs. I plan their day around the weather and our household routine to make sure they get the right balance of exercise, rest, and attention. For example, if I know we’ll be out for dinner, I make sure my puppy gets plenty of playtime earlier in the day so he’s relaxed and ready to rest while we’re away. On hot days, I shift our schedule to enjoy cooler morning hours outside before the heat sets in. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with thoughtful adjustments made to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy.
“Ellen is great! She has a big heart and is an animal person through and through. We started out with a few boarding visits and now go to Ellen for day care every week. She’s very easy to work with and has a great location for dogs to run around/play/hike. Thanks Ellen!”

“Jen and John are so reliable! We needed a dog walk with only one week notice. They responded within a day. The dogs love them! They walk and play every time.”
“Courtney is fantastic with our high energy dog. She takes her on a nice long walk and makes sure to give her plenty of time to sniff as she goes. Our dog is noticeably better behaved in the evenings when Courtney has taken her. It’s obvious she gets great exercise and mental stimulation on those days. I recommend Courtney wholeheartedly!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for many years, and used to have a senior dog. My love for dogs and cats sets the bar so high and I love playing and taking care of them.

I have lots of toys and love to play with my dog and cat. I love taking my dog out for walks, and love meeting other people’s dogs and cats!

About: Hello! I am Camryn F., I am currently a veterinary assistant at a Veterinary Hospital in Frederick and am in veterinary technician school. I have always loved being around any animal/caring for them! I can commute and I am easy to get ahold of! I am so excited to be helping those in need of a responsible and reliable caretaker. I do have pets in my home, but they are loving and open to meeting new animals as long as the feeling is mutual between the animals as far as drop offs. Although I may only have 5 years of professional experience I have years of personal experience as I have owned various animals throughout my life time! I look forward to getting to know you and your animal and helping you in any way possible! Thank you I do work full time, and a couple days a week I do have long hours. I have every other weekend off as well as Thursdays. Saturday I have a half day and every Sunday is guaranteed off. I also have major Holidays off. I have many pets of my own at home and often find myself feeding them and caring for them before myself most days! Some may call that crazy, but it’s just the way I roll! I love all animals big and small :)
“Lindsey is extremely chill and the exact perfect fit for our reactive Kevin. Kevin is excitable but as soon as he sees Lindsey he calms down and is ready for a walk. I highly recommend!!!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life. From the littlest of fish, to the largest of cows and other farm animals! I have 3 dogs of my own, two Colorado mountain dogs and a medium pittie mix. I also have 4 geckoes (2 leopards, a giant Madagascar day gecko, and my newest boy, a harlequin crested gecko!).

I always make sure to keep my client's homes clean and organized, and pay special attention to any extra tasks I'm giving, such as watering plants (I have dozens of plant babies!), changing the temperature, emptying dehumidifiers, and retrieving packages. Anything you need, I will do to the best of my abilities! I like to update my clients daily on their pets to ease their mind.

If your dog has those kinds of impulses, I am prepared to teach them impulse control to help curb that behavior.
“Joanna was a pleasure working with and my dog truly has taken to her. Joanna communicates very well and accommodates where needed. She notices if my dog needed some extra love and spent time with her in effort for her to eat. I highly recommend, in fact… I booked again ◡̈”
About: From house sitting and petting sitting for neighbors when I was young, to fostering pets for the past 5 years, and caring for friends pets when they go away, I have always enjoyed meeting new dogs & cats and caring for them, feeding them or administering medications, playing with & walking them, or just sitting & talking with them, even bathing them! I have a calm and friendly personality that animals gravitate to. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible. My kids are 17 & 18 so they drive themselves around. I can help on weekends, overnights, weekdays, nearly any time, as well as on short notice. I would offer my own home as well but I have a cat and a dog so sometimes the guest pets don't get along with other animals. In your home I can sit with them and talk to them if they're a lazy pet, or take your pup for a walk or running if they're high energy. I could also take him or her for car rides to get a pup cup at Starbucks or to my large fenced in backyard to run around. I live off Sunshine Way in Westminster near the Wal-mart.
“Amber has been a life saver for our happy little family! My husband and I both work long days and at times travel pops up last minute. I was able to request Amber’s help at 3:00 AM while getting ready for a long day and a few hours later Amber had confirmed she could help out. She asked intelligent questions, was prompt, followed directions on home security entrance perfectly, took lots of pictures and spent time walking and entertaining our fur-babies. We will definitely be re-hiring her!”
About: Thanks for looking at my profile! I'm looking for pet sitting/walking/care jobs. I've had two dogs that I've taken care of for 12 years, so I'm comfortable with any tasks. I also regularly sit/walk dogs for friends and family members. I had several cats growing up as well, so I'm happy to care for them. Additionally, I grew up next to a neighbor with a horse farm who I would help, so I can groom, muck, and ride horses. I'm a big animal lover, and a very active person, who enjoys playing, running, walking, and hiking with all animals. I'm happy to house sit as well. I'm looking for owners who need immediate help, and I'm very flexible, so I can accommodate whatever pet needs you have. Thanks for reading this, hope to hear from you! Saturday through Monday my schedule is open to care foe your pups! Tuesday and Thursday I am available from 12:30PM, and Wednesday and Friday from 2PM onwards. My complex has a dog park where I can regularly take them for bathroom breaks. I don’t mind dogs on furniture or beds but I am happy to adjust my style to however you care for your dogs at home. I have a trail very close for long walks and play time.

“Jena was AMAZING! My dog thoroughly enjoyed himself the week he stayed with Jena. She sent lots of pictures throughout his stay and kept in contact with us. I highly recommend her. She also has a very spacious backyard and there was a ton of play time and time outdoors. Cannot recommend her enough. We definitely will be booking with her in the near future.”
“Rodney and Marissa were awesome with Bella, she was nervous, but they made her feel right at home. She had a good time with them meeting new friends and was able to be her playful self! Thanks so much guys”
“Silvia and Roberto were fantastic with Penny! The daily photos of Penny getting comfortable really put us at ease. We definitely plan to board her with them again.”
“Simon had a great day with Lonnie and the other dogs. He was so tired from playing, he didn't even hop on the couch with us that night. Lonnie was quick to reply, sent pictures and you can really tell he just loves dogs like his own. He also sat with Simon in a quiet space so S could eat his dinner. He has a tendency to not eat when he's busy busy with other doggies, so we really appreciated that. Would definitely recommend!”
“James and Mary were amazing with Scooter! They sent an update with photos throughout his stay! Scooter enjoys human attention and they showed genuine care. He also made a lot of dog friends. We will definitely be taking Scooter to Mary and James again and highly recommend them to others looking for a good place to leave their furry family member.”
“Curtis and Lindsay were great, sharing pictures and communicating the whole time we were away. Our pup appeared content, happy and tired out when we brought her home. Would definitely recommend!”
“Can’t thank Brandon enough for watching our dog when we went on vacation. Ace had some trouble adjusting to a new home but Brandon was patient and kind. Brandon is very responsive and gave updates just as requested.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Ayanna and her family! She was incredibly attentive and treated our boy with so much love and care—like he was part of her own family. You can tell she genuinely enjoys what she does. We’ll absolutely be back and highly recommend her services!”
“Terry was phenomenal! Our dog warmed up to him right away, and he kept us updated with pictures every day that she was with him. Would absolutely book him again the next time we're out of town!”
“We booked Kyla and Cody not just for boarding our pup, but for drop-in visits with our other critters. Kyla and Cody were fantastic! We had some unique instructions, and nothing fazed them. They were great about providing updates and photos, asked questions when appropriate, and overall just gave us a sense of relief that our babies would be in good hands so that we could truly relax while we were away from home. Plus our pup found a great new friend in their dog while in their home.”
“Melissa took care of our fur baby for a week, and she was great! She was flexible, and sent pictures every day. Chewie looked comfortable, and had a blast with the other dogs.”
“10 out of 10! We will not hesitate to use Kim again to take care of our two girls. Every step of the process was easy and simple: Responsive to the booking request, great meet and greet, pictures and updates during our week vacation, to a seamless pick up and drop off. Kim is extremely available and convenient for meetups. Bane is a big well mannered sweetheart. He has the perfect host temperament to welcome our younger rescue dog who can be nervous in new situations. Kim will be out go to for any dog sitting.”
“Sam is such a wonderful dog lover and knew exactly what our dog Dublin is like and how to introduce him to other dogs. We didn't know this prior the drop off, but she had a few other dogs in different sizes, including her own dog, so it was wonderful for Dublin to be able to play with them and socialize. Her house has a huge fenced yard, surrounded by a woody area, which I think was perfect for Dublin. This is just a one-time boarding opportunity, as we were traveling through the area, but we'd certainly board our dog with ther again if we could.”
“Casey and Marwa are the most accommodating and caring dog sitters, we have ever had. They do their best to keep with the routines that Indiana knows and then add extra long walks, treats, brushing, playing, and lots of love. Their Pug Kevin is so cute and friendly. On top of that, they are super-flexible with drop off and pick up times and took Indy in on very short notice. Will definitely be back”
“Karen and Patrick are the best! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with them and the pictures they sent showed that he was having a wonderful time. We will definitely use them again!”
