“Renee always so loving to our dog Lily. She offers plenty of opportunities for play and cuddles. I recieve frequent updates and Lily always seemed to be right at home! Love that she has experience with pet sitting and it very aware of each individual dog in her care! :)”
“Charlie was amazing to work with. Quick to respond to messages and flexible with drop off and pick up. My two pups came home tired and happy. Will definitely use Charlie again for future services. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Emily is incredible! My dogs stayed with her for a full week and came home well cared for, loved, and happy. They exercised every day in a safe, wide-open yard, and she really went above and beyond when they refused to eat at first, giving them soft food and diligently encouraging them to make sure they were comfortable. I cannot thank you enough, Emily!!”
“I feel that words are far too limited to express the help and support we received from Ellen during such a difficult time! I had to travel to another continent and left my cat at the Kittie Room in Ellen’s home, and out of the blue, he needed emergency eye surgery. Ellen was constantly present through it all—strong, incredibly supportive, and providing post-surgery care filled with love, dedication, and countless medications like I had never seen before. I thank God every single day that when all this happened, my cat was with Ellen. In such a hard moment, Ellen, you were a true beacon for my family, and I will never forget it. You are a living miracle, moving seamlessly between the world of animals and the world of humans, with pure love and success in both. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!”
“Jesse was fantastic! She watched Canyon over Christmas and sent the most pictures I’ve ever gotten. It was very easy and canyon loved playing with the other dogs she was sitting.”
“Payten was amazing. I will definitely be using her again. It was my baby's first time being with a sitter. He is very reserved and stubborn, but he really warmed up and trusted her. That right there shows me that she is a person to be trusted. She kept me updated regularly, even sending pictures. Thank you Payten!”
“Adrienne was so great with our dog. She was very responsive and communicative every day. I enjoyed seeing the updates with photos that she sent day. Knowing that Lexi was happy and well taken care makes a world of difference when you’re traveling and have to leave your dog. Thank you Adrienne!”
“Tina was amazing with taking care of our dog Kiwi. Kiwi felt right at home with her and her Husband. I definitely recommend letting your furry family member to stay with them.”
“Mandie was AMAZING! I 110% recommend her for your pet sitting needs! This was our first time leaving our girl Nova for an extended period of time and she made it the most comfortable experience. She sent pictures and videos daily which eased our mind so much! She is very active with the dogs she watches and her own! She worked on commands with my dog and her home was very dog friendly! We couldn’t have picked a better sitter for our dog Nova!”
“Sarah was amazing! Our dog felt completely at home with her and was loved and spoiled rotten. We received photos and updates throughout the stay which was greatly appreciated. Definitely be using her again!”
“I’ve had two of my fur babies stay with Legune & Michael. They are so amazing!! The updates they give are wonderful and my puppies have such a fun time with them! I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you again for taking such great care of my babies!”
“Melissa and her family were such a great place for Harper. She was able to spend time outside and off leash, as well as cozy up to the boys on the sofa - all of her favorite things.”
“John and Jess were the most amazing and best sitter I have had so far..! They were most attentive sitter and were sending multiple videos and photos thru out the day during Shiners stay. I also had to extend one night for him and they were flexible and adjusted it right away. Overall.. shiner enjoyed the stay there with ease and I’ll be booking John and Jess again for future Shiners stays.”
“We cannot recommend Jaclyn enough! She has always been an amazing caregiver for our pup, treating him like part of her family with love, attention, and plenty of playtime. But what truly sets her apart is her incredible kindness and flexibility. When our flight was unexpectedly canceled at the last minute, Jaclyn didn’t hesitate to extend our pup’s stay for a few extra days, giving us one less thing to stress about. It's rare to find someone so reliable, caring, and genuinely dedicated to both pets and their owners. Our pup always comes back happy, well-cared-for, and loved. If you’re looking for the best, Jaclyn is it! Thank you, Jaclyn! You’re a lifesaver! 🐶❤️”
“Terri had great communication and we were able to do a meet and greet before the stay. She sent us great pictures and updates and would greatly recommend her to watch your pets!”
“Chris & Gerry are simply THE BEST! I couldn’t say enough great things about them. So many beautiful updates every day while on vacation with heartwarming messages and adorable pics of our little Lexi. I was completely relaxed my entire vacation knowing Lexi was in such great hands! Can’t thank you enough!”
“Rachel and Jason took great care of our little Shi-Chi overnight. Pepper is usually such a creature of habit that we didn't know what to expect, but seeing the photos of her while we were away really put our minds at ease. Rachel even went the extra mile cuddling our little lap dog and seeing that her ponytail and bow were straight. Highly recommend!”
“This is an amazing family who all deserve the highest marks for caring for my senior dog. The three sons even drew me a great picture of Hank! The pictures they send show a happy, “smiling” dog having a good time with either their dog., with family or resting. I feel so confident about his well being while I am away. Thank you all!”
“Jennifer is a true professional and so clearly enjoys what she does! We have had poor Rover experiences in the past, but she put me at ease from our first meeting. Our dog has a super sensitive stomach and she assured us that she’d be kept away from any food and toys that we didn’t bring. Aside from her great care, Jennifer was super responsive and sent pictures at least twice a day without a fail. I didn’t worry about Ivy at all while we were away. Will definitely be using Jennifer in the future!”

“Charolette is an amazing pet sitter. We have an outdoor cat who is skittish, she was petting him 24 hours later. I refer to her as the Mary Poppins of cat sitters.”
“Deann is kind, thoughtful, reliable, and prompt: all things you want in someone taking care of your furbabies in your absence! Our shy cat took to her almost immediately--an impressive feat! She followed our cat's special dietary needs to a T.”
“Amber did a wonderful job with our pets. The cats especially seemed to warm up to her within a day when they normally take several days to warm up to someone. Her communication was great throughout and she left our house spotless. We would definitely have Amber stay with our pets again.”
“Christina sent daily updates to let us know how Zoey was doing. Everything seemed to go great while we were gone and when we came home everything was in place and Zoey was a happy girl. Thanks Christina!”
“Cari is the absolute best. I’m able to travel without worry knowing she’s checking on my babies. Unfortunately they left her a mess one day. I felt so bad but she made light of it knowing they are coming out of their shells and mingling with her which I truly appreciate! Great communication as well!”
About: Hi, I’m Ashley! I provide attentive, reliable care for your four-legged family members. Whether your pet needs an afternoon stroll, engaging yard playtime, a gentle drop-in visit, or quiet companionship while you’re away, I ensure they feel safe, engaged, and well cared for. My Background & Experience I’ve shared my home with cats my entire life and currently care for two beloved felines of my own. Two of my family's cats were diabetic, giving me hands-on experience administering feline insulin. I understand subtle body language, strict feeding schedules, and how to help reserved pets feel at ease. When it comes to dogs, meeting neighborhood pups while out on my daily delivery routes is always the highlight of my day—I always keep treats on hand to make fast friends! My hands-on dog experience includes: Playful walks & companionship: Great with friendly, moderately active dogs who enjoy neighborhood strolls, interactive playtime (fetch or gentle tug), and backyard sniff sessions. Senior dog fostering: Fostered an older pup through the Humane Society, providing patient, medication-aware care suited to a relaxed pace. Sitting for friends & neighbors: Experienced handling reliable feeding routines, potty breaks, and check-ins. Midday flexibility: Operating as an independent courier allows me to easily accommodate midday walk breaks and playtime drop-ins during prime work hours. What You Can Expect Safety & Respect: I always confirm dietary restrictions before offering treats and adhere strictly to your leash, feeding, and house rules. Clear Communication: Photo and status updates with every visit so you know your pet is happy and secure. Grounded, Caring Energy: Attentive company for friendly dogs and a gentle, quiet presence for cats. I’d love to schedule a meet-and-greet to see if we’re a great match! I am an independent contractor and online student, which means I don't work a rigid 9-to-5 desk job. My schedule allows me to quickly adjust to your pet’s routine—whether you need regular mid-day potty breaks while you're at work, evening visits, or flexible weekend care. I focus solely on drop-in visits and walks at your home, keeping stress low for your pets. I respect your home's security, follow your exact feeding and care instructions, and practice careful door awareness so indoor cats and pups never slip out. Your pet receives my undivided care and attention.
“Kelly was great to have. She arranged to come meet Rowan prior to the scheduled days. She always gave some feedback on how he was doing. Also used her vet skills to give advice or recommendations to make things easier for Rowan. Planning on using her again!!”
“Hania was amazing with our kitties! We always worry a little bit about them since some of them can be a little skittish and one has special dietary needs. She did a great job and the kitties loved her!”
“I can’t recommend Katie enough as a dog sitter! She is responsible, caring, and truly loves animals. From the very beginning, Katie was reliable and communicative, always keeping me updated with messages and photos so I knew my dog was happy and well taken care of.”
About: Since I can remember, I have been caring for animals. If people know me, they know there is no Emilee without pets. Whether it's caring for the 3 dogs of my own, my Bengal cat, my 40 chickens, or a friend's/family's/colleague's animals, I am always excited for bonus time around fury loved ones. I have a background and degree in Animal Science and specific skills pertaining to diabetic animals. I am comfortable with all breeds, ages and temperaments.
About: I was born and raised on a family farm. From the time I was born I have been riding in tractors and taking care of all sorts of animals. Growing up we always had dogs and cats in our home. I have always loved rescuing strays and rehabilitating injured animals of all shapes and sizes. I now have three fur babies of my very own and they are my life! If you entrust your pet with me I will not take it lightly as it is a deep honor and privilege. I love spoiling animals and giving them all the love. If I ever won the lottery I would adopt all of the oldest animals at the shelter and take them to my pet sanctuary. Please consider booking me so that I can continue to stay at home with my human baby as much as possible! 🐾 I am very part time right now since I stay home with my little one. I pick up evening shifts here and there but I am fairly free in the evenings once my husband gets home from work. Let me know what you need and we can work out a routine! I typically work with children and for that reason I understand the importance of trust, flexibility, and kindness. I will always uphold your privacy and I promise to do my best in every situation. I like to call myself an “over communicator” so I will always share details on your pet and I’m pretty good at taking pictures of fur babies too!
“Natalie is fantastic! Very communicative and I could tell from the questions she asked that she was going to provide great care to my cats on her drop-in visit. Everything went smoothly and I will definitely rebook!”
“Payten was amazing. She got great pictures of my cats. Even the outside community cats were coming to see her. My foster kittens were a challenge and ahe handled it beautifully.”
“Suki was great doing drop ins with my two cats, Mischa and Charlie. She listened to my instructions and gave my needy cats all the attention and love they would allow. I will definitely rebook - so thankful to have access to trustworthy sitters as a paranoid cat mom!!”
About: I have personally owned cats for the past 20+ years. I rescued my first cat Amos, as a stray kitten. He was my first pet that I had on my own after moving into my first apartment. We spent 17 wonderful years together. I have since rescued many other pets, including senior cats and I am very comfortable with medication administration, physical ambulatory assistance, and incontinence support. I currently have 2 cats: 7 year old siblings, Henry & Dinah - also 2 stray kittens dropped off at my old farmhouse.
About: I never had a dog of my own growing up, but I always had a blast watching animals for my family and friends! Taking dogs on walks and simply playing with them is so much fun. I love to be able to bond with pets and really get to know them. I’m not a professional dog trainer, however I’ve attempted to crate train and teach other simple tricks to dogs and was successful. I have experience with senior dogs as well as high energy puppies. I am able to adapt to any dogs personality to ensure they have a great time while their owner is away! Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I am currently available full time, Monday-Sunday. I make sure to set aside time for walks, feeding, and playtime with the pets I care for. I also ensure they have regular check-ins and any necessary medication or grooming is done on time. I prioritize their needs around my other commitments, and I’m always flexible to adjust my schedule to accommodate their care. I am not currently able to have pets in my home, however I can travel to your home if dog sitting or an overnight stay is needed!

“Lejune and Michael were beyond awesome! This was my first leaving my doggie with someone other than family, and it was the best experience. I loved getting pictures of my fur baby. I would def recommend booking with them!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys caring for both dogs and cats. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and comfortable while you are away. I have experience caring for energetic puppies, independent cats, and animals with different personalities and needs. I am attentive, patient, and treat every pet like family. I am happy to provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My home has a large backyard that is partially fenced, along with a smaller fully fenced area for safe outdoor time. We also have a finished open basement where pups can run, play, and relax comfortably indoors. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home full time and enjoy spending time with animals. Dogs receive regular potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I am able to follow your pet’s normal feeding and activity schedule so they feel comfortable and settled while you are away. I am also happy to send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Our home has a large backyard that is partially fenced, along with a smaller fully fenced area where dogs can safely spend time outside.

“Ridge just finished his 2nd stay with Charlie and had a ball. He loves his new friends and Charlie is so good and patient with him! As a lab puppy Ridge was CRAVING socialization and Charlie offers the perfect set up and outlet for him - fields to run and friends to run with - all while we know he's well supervised and getting great care!”
About: My Experience My experience caring for dogs goes back well before I started doing this full time. In high school, I walked dogs for people in my community to earn extra money, so getting paid to grab a leash and spend time with dogs is actually something I’ve come back to years later. Since then, I’ve continued gaining hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels through years of owning and caring for dogs myself. I’m comfortable with everything from a dog that wants to stop and investigate every mailbox to a large, energetic dog that genuinely needs to put some miles in. What started as a way to make money in high school has developed into something I take much more seriously today. Pet care is now my full-time focus, and I approach it professionally—learning each dog’s routine, keeping individual notes, communicating with owners, and working to build a relationship with every dog I regularly walk. I don’t just want experience walking dogs. I want experience knowing your dog—what they enjoy, what they avoid, how they communicate, and what makes them excited when I show up at the door. My Schedule & Availability: Open 24/7/365 | ASAP | rain☔️, snow❄️, or shine☀️ | hot🥵 or cold🥶 Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule is built around the dogs I care for—not around another work schedule. I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Early mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnight, weekends, and holidays—rain, snow, or shine, hot or cold. I especially welcome recurring clients who want to make exercise a consistent part of their dog’s routine. Because this is my full-time focus, I can accommodate regular weekday walks, multiple walks per week, longer walks, high-energy dogs, and owners who work overnight or unusual schedules. I also understand that life doesn’t always happen on a schedule, which is why I accept ASAP requests whenever possible. If I receive an alert at 2:00 AM, for example, my goal is to be at your pet’s door by 4:00 AM. ASAP requests are always subject to my current schedule, location, and travel time, so immediate arrival can’t be guaranteed, but I aim to respond to ASAP requests within two hours of receiving the alert. Weather doesn’t automatically mean a canceled walk either. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get outside. Dogs still need exercise, bathroom breaks, mental stimulation, and attention when the weather isn’t perfect. Safety always comes first, so extreme heat, dangerous cold, thunderstorms, ice, or other hazardous conditions may mean adjusting our distance, route, pace, or time outdoors rather than putting your dog at unnecessary risk. I also leave enough time between scheduled clients so your dog’s visit doesn’t feel rushed. Consistency is important to me, and regular walks give me the opportunity to learn your dog’s personality, routine, favorite places, preferred pace, and individual needs. Whether it’s 2 PM or 2 AM, a beautiful sunny afternoon or a snowy morning, my goal is to be someone you can depend on—and someone your dog gets excited to see because they know it’s time to go explore. Safety, Trust & Environment: Your dog’s safety will always come first, but I also believe dogs deserve to experience the world outside. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get them outside and moving. I’ll always adjust our pace, distance, and route to your dog and the conditions rather than automatically canceling a walk because the weather isn’t perfect. Throughout every walk, I pay close attention to your dog’s body language, breathing, energy level, paws, traffic, other animals, and our surroundings. On hot days, that means watching pavement temperatures, prioritizing shade and water, and recognizing signs of overheating. In cold or snowy conditions, I’ll monitor their paws and comfort and follow any instructions you have for coats, boots, or other gear. Weather won’t scare me away, but unsafe conditions will change the plan. Extreme heat, severe storms, dangerous ice, or conditions that could put your dog at risk may mean a shorter outdoor walk with the remaining time devoted to safe indoor attention and stimulation. Trust matters just as much. You’re trusting me with a member of your family and, in many cases, access to your home. I’ll respect your property, follow your instructions, communicate with you, and make sure your dog is safe and secure before I leave. I also want dogs to have the opportunity to be dogs. I’ll give them time to sniff, explore, investigate their surroundings, and experience what’s happening around them instead of treating every walk like a race. Every dog is different, and I’ll learn yours. Rain, snow, or shine. Hot or cold. My goal is to become someone you trust—and someone your dog gets excited to see walking through the door.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with more than 50 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, chickens, hamsters, gerbils, and fish, giving me a deep understanding that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience administering medications and providing attentive, individualized care. My goal is to give your dog a safe, comfortable, and loving home away from home while you’re away. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care each day. I maintain a consistent routine to make sure pets in my care are comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I enjoy spending time with animals and will provide regular interaction, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you can stay connected and know your pet is happy and doing well. Pets staying in my home become part of the family. We have a friendly Boston Terrier and a secure fenced-in yard where dogs can enjoy safe outdoor time, play, and fresh air. I provide a calm, loving environment with attention to each dog’s individual needs, including their feeding schedule, exercise routine, medications, and comfort preferences. I keep my home safe and welcoming so your dog can relax and feel at ease while you’re away. For additional peace of mind, we live just two miles from a highly respected veterinary clinic should an emergency ever arise.
“Emily is a wonderful, intuitive care person for dogs. She has two dogs of her own and a couple of other dogs that board with her. I have a non-altered female and she cares for a non-altered male. I won't be back because of that, but no fault of Emily's.”
“We were so lucky to have Ellen watch our dog, Ziva! She has separation anxiety, and we were nervous about leaving her with someone new in a new environment. Ellen was so reassuring from the start, promising to take good care of her. And she absolutely did. Her sweet dog, Cleopatra, was so friendly and helped Ziva feel comfortable right away. Our first impression was unforgettable- Ziva followed Ellen, which is rare for her with someone she doesn’t know. Ellen took extra care to comfort Ziva when she was anxious and sent us picture updates that really put our minds at ease. Because of Ellen, we were able to enjoy our event without constantly checking our phones. This was such a relief, especially since we’ve had a bad experience with a previous sitter who never sent updates. Ellen went above and beyond, and we could truly feel the difference in Ziva’s comfort. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Ellen, for caring for Ziva like she was your own!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats. We do tend to spoil them. I have lots of room for them to run and play in our fenced in yard. We walk them on a leash through our nearby cemetery. I currently work part time with Amazon flex. I will always be available if I have any pet jobs as Amazon flex is very flexible. I’m available for home and pet sitting. I have a fenced in back yard and currently own 1 miniature Daschund female 2 years old to help keep your furry friends playing or if needed I can use a crate with permission only.
“We are new with Renee, Kuro has been consistently going in for day care for the past 3 weeks and I must say he has a blast. He is happy to go there, gets to play with other pups. Renee is patient and very attentive. She accommodates requests and also goes that extra mile to care for our pup. Thank you Renee.”
“Our dog Buddy seems to have had a great time. Chloe kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and texts. I’m sure he’ll want to come back soon. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”
“Maia had such a great time! She was tired out when she got home from running all over the property. I enjoyed the videos and photos that were sent during the day! We will definitely use Sandra again.”
About: I have experience, taking care of cats, dogs, and chickens. I am willing to take care of smaller animals, such as hamsters, birds or guinea pigs as well. During the summer, I am home most days of the week. I am a full time teacher so I am off during the summer. Therefore I am very reliable and flexible with times. I have a fenced in yard that’s big enough for dogs to get some exercise. I have two kids who enjoy seeing and meeting new animals.
About: I've been taking care of my own animals my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and family started hiring me for pet care when I was still in high school. I love the stark difference in pet personalities and learning how each of them likes to be cared for. Examples of my past & present clientele: - A family with 7 chihuahuas of varying ages and levels of crazy - A brand new hyperactive Bernedoodle puppy whom I still care for regularly (she's 4 now!) - A sweet lab who liked long, slow walks and bananas - A moody cat who could not care less about me (I have slowly earned the blessing of giving head pats to them now) - A tortoise who inspires me to slow down and eat more greens *my home is a safe space for people and pets from all walks of life* I am currently working from home, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pet(s)! I love being and walking outside and having an animal companion to join me is always a pleasure. We have a large back porch and yard for sniffing around. If your pet requires extra exercise, we have a quiet neighborhood to walk around in. We have a dog bed in almost every room, space for you to bring a crate, or an area that can be closed off overnight if necessary or requested. There are few places in the house that the dogs don't have access to out of an abundance of safety. Otherwise, they are welcome to make themselves at home! If I care for an animal in your home, I will let you and your pet take the lead!
“If I could give 10 stars, I would. Heidi made Louie part of her family while he was there. She sent me pictures and videos all day of him being loved and spoiled. Fantastic communication and care.”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. I love animals, as they are the most loving and authentic little beings.

Your pup will be in good hands and loved! My household always has an adult home for walks or ability to go out in the yard at anytime.

About: Ever since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. My Grandma was very influential in teaching me to love and care for them and how to read their body language. I started pet sitting when I was in elementary school, when our neighbors would go on vacation I would care for their cat and fish. I have had many beloved pets growing up, including; cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, lizards, hamsters, and a mouse. Currently, I have a previously feral, cow cat named queenie. I have taken a veterinary science course at hcc, where I studied animal anatomy. I also worked as a volunteer and fostered at the humane society , a non-profit no kill organization that works with Petsmart, to get animals into forever homes. I am currently in school to get a Bachelors Degree in Biology, with a focus on Zoology. My goal is to study and work directly with wild animals in order to preserve them! :) If you guys have any questions feel free at ask! My schedule is pretty open just let me know when you need me :) Thank you sooo much! My whole house is cat and pup proof! Your furbaby will be safe and happy here with me while you get the things you need done!

I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for during their stay.
About: I LOVE DOGS!! What more can I say? I have had dogs in my family, of my own and taken care of family dogs practically since I was born. I've been around dogs of all shapes and sizes and love all of them, no matter what! I have had experience with special diets, dog walking and even diabetic dogs (using diabetic test strips and glucometer). Sometimes I like to think of myself as a dog whisperer: I can get along with all dogs and read what they need or want. I'm also great at helping dogs to heal or get over their fears! I especially love giving and receiving loves (hugs, kisses and lots of cuddles and petting)! Give me your doggie babies! :D I would love to take care of them!
About: I am a 22 year old woman, who lives with two days of her own! I love and adore every animal i see. No matter where i am! I’m currently unemployed, so I can love and care for your animals anytime they need! Im available anytime/ any-day of the week you need me to be! I’ll always be around or they will always be in eye sight of me! Constantly loving and giving them attention! My cats love cuddles and food!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 15 years now and love doing so. Experienced with all ages I’m very active so long walks is no problem. I work from home which gives me the flexibility to adjust to many schedules when needed. So I’m open to many different changing schedules weekly I’m very respectful of your home and how you choose to take care of your dog. I’m happy to go by your ways of doing things but also giving advice as well
“I messaged Jaden and she was able to come that same evening for a meet and great, and start walks as early as the next day. I highly recommend her! Jaden has been walking my puppy Toby for 3 weeks now. On time, great communication, super flexible and has great availability. Will continue to work with Jaden moving forward.”
About: Hello, I’m Kirsten. I have been actively dog sitting for the last 5 years in and around Washington county and Frederick county. As well as the surrounding areas. (Mount airy, woodbine, Frederick, smithsburg, Hagerstown. etc) As of September 2026 we do have a newborn. I do both overnights in your home and boarding opportunities in our home. I can work from home most days which allows a very flexible schedule. I am willing to accommodate for what ever needs are present and will make sure your pet is well taken care of. Thanks for your consideration ! I work full time, I can provide care before and after work. I also have the flexibility to work from home as needed. Thank you! I do have a fenced in yard, no restrictions at my home as far as where the dog can go, they can sleep in my bed if they would like.
“Hania does an excellent job with my Malory. Would highly recommend others use her services. She takes beautiful pictures of my pet while I am away and also makes sure her food and water are topped off. Our cat has also grown fond of her.”
About: My Experience My experience caring for dogs goes back well before I started doing this full time. In high school, I walked dogs for people in my community to earn extra money, so getting paid to grab a leash and spend time with dogs is actually something I’ve come back to years later. Since then, I’ve continued gaining hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels through years of owning and caring for dogs myself. I’m comfortable with everything from a dog that wants to stop and investigate every mailbox to a large, energetic dog that genuinely needs to put some miles in. What started as a way to make money in high school has developed into something I take much more seriously today. Pet care is now my full-time focus, and I approach it professionally—learning each dog’s routine, keeping individual notes, communicating with owners, and working to build a relationship with every dog I regularly walk. I don’t just want experience walking dogs. I want experience knowing your dog—what they enjoy, what they avoid, how they communicate, and what makes them excited when I show up at the door. My Schedule & Availability: Open 24/7/365 | ASAP | rain☔️, snow❄️, or shine☀️ | hot🥵 or cold🥶 Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule is built around the dogs I care for—not around another work schedule. I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Early mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnight, weekends, and holidays—rain, snow, or shine, hot or cold. I especially welcome recurring clients who want to make exercise a consistent part of their dog’s routine. Because this is my full-time focus, I can accommodate regular weekday walks, multiple walks per week, longer walks, high-energy dogs, and owners who work overnight or unusual schedules. I also understand that life doesn’t always happen on a schedule, which is why I accept ASAP requests whenever possible. If I receive an alert at 2:00 AM, for example, my goal is to be at your pet’s door by 4:00 AM. ASAP requests are always subject to my current schedule, location, and travel time, so immediate arrival can’t be guaranteed, but I aim to respond to ASAP requests within two hours of receiving the alert. Weather doesn’t automatically mean a canceled walk either. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get outside. Dogs still need exercise, bathroom breaks, mental stimulation, and attention when the weather isn’t perfect. Safety always comes first, so extreme heat, dangerous cold, thunderstorms, ice, or other hazardous conditions may mean adjusting our distance, route, pace, or time outdoors rather than putting your dog at unnecessary risk. I also leave enough time between scheduled clients so your dog’s visit doesn’t feel rushed. Consistency is important to me, and regular walks give me the opportunity to learn your dog’s personality, routine, favorite places, preferred pace, and individual needs. Whether it’s 2 PM or 2 AM, a beautiful sunny afternoon or a snowy morning, my goal is to be someone you can depend on—and someone your dog gets excited to see because they know it’s time to go explore. Safety, Trust & Environment: Your dog’s safety will always come first, but I also believe dogs deserve to experience the world outside. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get them outside and moving. I’ll always adjust our pace, distance, and route to your dog and the conditions rather than automatically canceling a walk because the weather isn’t perfect. Throughout every walk, I pay close attention to your dog’s body language, breathing, energy level, paws, traffic, other animals, and our surroundings. On hot days, that means watching pavement temperatures, prioritizing shade and water, and recognizing signs of overheating. In cold or snowy conditions, I’ll monitor their paws and comfort and follow any instructions you have for coats, boots, or other gear. Weather won’t scare me away, but unsafe conditions will change the plan. Extreme heat, severe storms, dangerous ice, or conditions that could put your dog at risk may mean a shorter outdoor walk with the remaining time devoted to safe indoor attention and stimulation. Trust matters just as much. You’re trusting me with a member of your family and, in many cases, access to your home. I’ll respect your property, follow your instructions, communicate with you, and make sure your dog is safe and secure before I leave. I also want dogs to have the opportunity to be dogs. I’ll give them time to sniff, explore, investigate their surroundings, and experience what’s happening around them instead of treating every walk like a race. Every dog is different, and I’ll learn yours. Rain, snow, or shine. Hot or cold. My goal is to become someone you trust—and someone your dog gets excited to see walking through the door.
About: My appreciation and respect for animals started when 1 day my extended family came home with the cutest Pomeranians who then had puppies and then those puppies had pups! They became family and we would babysit each other's fur baby. I loved having a dog because I love being outdoors, running, and exploring. I'm looking forward to making new memories and exploring more beaten paths with your fur baby :) I appreciate all animals, that being said, I've enjoyed the company of some adorable cats. My approach is to give them space and let them come to me when they please. My baby boy, Simba is 7 years old, he is baby friendly, and protective of my girls around strangers, he adores my daughters! He sleeps next to them every night and during the day he follows them around and enjoys watching them play. I love how each animal has a unique personality and you can be sure that I will be attentive to those traits so ensure the best possible care and love for them. I have a flexible schedule working from home for our local family owned Coffee Business. I am happy to accommodate my schedule to your baby’s needs. Life Happens and when you need someone to trust, that’s where I like to fill that need. I am a caregiver at heart and treat every living creature with respect and quality care. I prefer to care for pets in their homes, so they are more comfortable and less anxious. Also, I reside in a small apartment that's not compatible to care for animals besides my 1 cat. In each client's home I am respectful of belongings and careful to keep everything as clean as possible when serving pet's food and water. I'm comfortable changing litter boxes, picking up after dog's stools and discarding appropriately. I am comfortable administering pet's medications as well. I'm more than happy to give your pet an appropriate amount of affection and love because I'm sure they are anxious to see their parents soon. Pets are like family members and will be treated as such, under my care.
About: I'm Hannah! I have two boys, ages 3 and 7. My kids are great with dogs as we have been doing Rover for over 6 years. We are dog lovers and we would love to have your doggy in our home while you are away! I can offer as much or as little outside time that’s needed. Your baby will be in great hands while you’re away and you won’t miss a beat with all the pictures that are sent your way. Your dog will get a lot of outside time, exercise, play time, snuggles and freedom. Please feel free to message me with any questions or special requests. (: I have a flexible work schedule and work from home 3 days a week. We love to be outdoors playing but are also completely fine staying inside and relaxing. We treat any dog in our home like family. We try to make them feel as comfortable as possible as we understand that being out of their home and away from their owners can cause different behaviors such as anxiety, sadness, hyperness, etc.
About: I have experience, taking care of cats, dogs, and chickens. I am willing to take care of smaller animals, such as hamsters, birds or guinea pigs as well. During the summer, I am home most days of the week. I am a full time teacher so I am off during the summer. Therefore I am very reliable and flexible with times. I have a fenced in yard that’s big enough for dogs to get some exercise. I have two kids who enjoy seeing and meeting new animals.
“Going away, always stresses me out leaving my dog. I was able to go away and relax knowing Corrinna was helping with my dog. I would definitely recommend her and use her again.”

“Charlie was amazing to work with. Quick to respond to messages and flexible with drop off and pick up. My two pups came home tired and happy. Will definitely use Charlie again for future services. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Emily is incredible! My dogs stayed with her for a full week and came home well cared for, loved, and happy. They exercised every day in a safe, wide-open yard, and she really went above and beyond when they refused to eat at first, giving them soft food and diligently encouraging them to make sure they were comfortable. I cannot thank you enough, Emily!!”
“I feel that words are far too limited to express the help and support we received from Ellen during such a difficult time! I had to travel to another continent and left my cat at the Kittie Room in Ellen’s home, and out of the blue, he needed emergency eye surgery. Ellen was constantly present through it all—strong, incredibly supportive, and providing post-surgery care filled with love, dedication, and countless medications like I had never seen before. I thank God every single day that when all this happened, my cat was with Ellen. In such a hard moment, Ellen, you were a true beacon for my family, and I will never forget it. You are a living miracle, moving seamlessly between the world of animals and the world of humans, with pure love and success in both. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!”
“Tina was amazing with taking care of our dog Kiwi. Kiwi felt right at home with her and her Husband. I definitely recommend letting your furry family member to stay with them.”
“Mandie was AMAZING! I 110% recommend her for your pet sitting needs! This was our first time leaving our girl Nova for an extended period of time and she made it the most comfortable experience. She sent pictures and videos daily which eased our mind so much! She is very active with the dogs she watches and her own! She worked on commands with my dog and her home was very dog friendly! We couldn’t have picked a better sitter for our dog Nova!”
“Sarah was amazing! Our dog felt completely at home with her and was loved and spoiled rotten. We received photos and updates throughout the stay which was greatly appreciated. Definitely be using her again!”
“Melissa and her family were such a great place for Harper. She was able to spend time outside and off leash, as well as cozy up to the boys on the sofa - all of her favorite things.”
“We cannot recommend Jaclyn enough! She has always been an amazing caregiver for our pup, treating him like part of her family with love, attention, and plenty of playtime. But what truly sets her apart is her incredible kindness and flexibility. When our flight was unexpectedly canceled at the last minute, Jaclyn didn’t hesitate to extend our pup’s stay for a few extra days, giving us one less thing to stress about. It's rare to find someone so reliable, caring, and genuinely dedicated to both pets and their owners. Our pup always comes back happy, well-cared-for, and loved. If you’re looking for the best, Jaclyn is it! Thank you, Jaclyn! You’re a lifesaver! 🐶❤️”
“Terri had great communication and we were able to do a meet and greet before the stay. She sent us great pictures and updates and would greatly recommend her to watch your pets!”
“This is an amazing family who all deserve the highest marks for caring for my senior dog. The three sons even drew me a great picture of Hank! The pictures they send show a happy, “smiling” dog having a good time with either their dog., with family or resting. I feel so confident about his well being while I am away. Thank you all!”
“Jennifer is a true professional and so clearly enjoys what she does! We have had poor Rover experiences in the past, but she put me at ease from our first meeting. Our dog has a super sensitive stomach and she assured us that she’d be kept away from any food and toys that we didn’t bring. Aside from her great care, Jennifer was super responsive and sent pictures at least twice a day without a fail. I didn’t worry about Ivy at all while we were away. Will definitely be using Jennifer in the future!”
“Our puppy, Lulu Belle, spent 4 days and 3 nights with Sandra last week and she absolutely loved it. Sandra has a large yard, with all kinds of outdoor furniture and platforms, for the dogs to enjoy climbing on, as they race each other around the property. We loved the photos and message updates, Sandra sent us throughout each of the days, from early morning to bedtime. We appreciated these regular updates showing our dog was safe and having fun.”
“Suki was great with my two older dogs. Suki was flexible and attentive to their needs. She communicated with me regularly, sending photos and updates every day. She was very patient when one of my dogs had separation anxiety. I was really thankful, and knew the dogs were in good hands!”
“We highly recommend Joel & Janelle! They helped us in a pinch when our sitter had to cancel super last minute. This was our first time using Rover and it definitely won’t be the last. I was really nervous going out of our comfort zone especially while being out of town but Joel and Janelle responded quickly, answered all questions and took great care of our girl. We even got super cute pictures! They both were very kind and accommodating. Highly recommend! Thank you again Joel and Janelle! We really appreciate everything!”
“Thank you, Ashley. Ashley communicated with us frequently, sending photos throughout Isla’s visit. Isla came home happy and tired from Playing all weekend with her new “Wolfpack” in Ashley’s large fenced in yard.”
“Anna took such great care of our German shepherd, was communicative and understanding when we had an unexpected travel change. She was more than accommodating and went above and beyond to help given our travel issue. Anna’s house is great for any dog, her dogs are very sweet and her family is awesome. I cannot recommend enough and we will book with her again 1000%”
“Shaynna was awesome. She was willing to take Kelce on a last minute basis. She was also able to tell when Kelce was stressed and was able to give her the attention she needed. She gave updates and sent a picture. I will definitely book with Shaynna again when the time comes about.”
“Chloe did great with our year-old rambunctious Olde English Bulldogge pup. She shared regular updates with photos and videos, and took great care of him. Our Saber made new friends and was well taken care of with Chloe. She even let him borrow a jacket on one of the coldest days this year. I'd definitely recommend her.”
“Matt was super easy to work with and took good care of our Aussie, who was hesitant to leave him when we went to pick her up! It’s so nice to find a dog sitter who works from home like we do. Highly recommend Matt.”
