Personalized care for your dog or cat - Frederick

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Frederick
“Adrienne went above and beyond for us during an extended trip, even picking up our custom dog food order when we forgot to leave enough for the pups during their stay. Highly recommend!”

“Terri was absolutely wonderful. She let us do a meet & greet before leaving my pups which really gave me peace of mind. She had a nice & clean environment. Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”

“Chris and Gerry are so nice, loving, and kind. My girls felt at ease while staying with them. It helps that they only take one client at a time. If you are looking for someone to love your babies like their own, look no further. Definitely book with Chris and Gerry!”

“Renee and her husband were great sitters for our 18-month old, very anxious rescue dog. They were very accommodating - we needed to adjust dates and they were fine with that. Maggie had a great time with them - they gave her time to feel confident and comfortable before introducing her to the other dogs in their household. I received a picture and a happy update each day of Maggie's stay. They were comfortable administering Maggie's daily medicine.”

“Words cannot express my satisfaction having Annette look after Axel. Learning of her experience with fosters it was a no brainer to book with her. My experience dropping off and picking up, seeing her interact with my boy and hearing how she handled situations with him, solidified she will be my go to sitter. It was wonderful peace of mind to know Axel would be taken care of in a lovely home environment.”

“Awesome and lovely dog loving family. Knight had a great time. I appreciate their flexibility and accommodations when I had a delayed travel flight departure, that affected my pick-up time.”

“Mango really seemed to enjoy her stay with John. He seemed to connect with her immediately and his own calm, well-behaved dogs welcomed her as well. Throughout the day he sent photos and videos of her adventures. I will definitely call on John again.”

“Kacy and Justin took excellent care of our anxious senior dog and kept us throughly updated with pictures. Will definitely keep them as one of our go to options for boarding.”

“We are incredibly grateful for the care Ellen gave Dugger and Maya this week. We had a last minute change in our schedule and needed to extend their stay by a day. Then on pickup day, I was going to arrive very late. She kindly and lovingly kept them an extra night without hesitation. While they were with her, she prepared delicious dinners for them, sent us videos and photos, and cared for them with so much love and attention. It is very clear that she truly loves what she does. Dugger and Maya absolutely love going to her farm, and we always feel at peace knowing they are in such good hands. We could not ask for better care.”

“Nat &Ally are amazing, this is by far the best Rover service that I ever had and I have been using Rovers for more than 3 years. They are very attentive, they do a meeting before the drop off day, they truly want to make sure my furbaby will feel welcome and safe. They asked all the right questions, food, timing, snacks, what is he allowed or not to do and so on. They have a backyard which is great for my chocolate lab to play and they have a playful dog that was perfect for Rocco. We even got a drawing from Rocco, from one of the kids, that made me cry…Happy cry! They are all super sweet. Love their vibe and respect. I recommend them 100%. I would be looking forward to work with them more often.”

“Rene is a warm, professional and knowledgeable pet care provider. Buddy took to her immediately (as did I.). He received lots of warm attention and plenty of exercise and fresh airl! I highly recommend Rene!”


About: I recently lost my 14-year old bulldog and I am looking to reconnect with dogs before committing to another long term companion. I have experience with senior dog care, to include dogs with cancer and dementia. I work full-time from home. During the day, I would be able to offer 2 15 -minute bathroom visits/walks during my breaks from work. I also have flexibility when other needs arise. In the evenings, I am free to give your dog as much love and attention as they desire. I only accept 1 dog at a time (unless multiple dogs are from the same owner and the dogs are pair bonded). I was single handedly responsible for my own dog for 11 years before she died of old age, so I know what it takes to compassionately care for a dog. I have also watched my friends’ dogs and my parent’s dog for weeks at a time. Taking care of dogs is not a new experience for me. I work from home and have complete control over the flexibility of my schedule. I can take breaks from my work to attend to your dogs needs 2 times per day during my 15-minute breaks. I am free evenings. I can also use my breaks to give walks/pet stop-ins if within close proximity to my house. I am willing to take care of dogs who prefer free play in a fenced in yard or those that prefer longer leash walks or park outings. I have no problem with free roam in the house or crating, whichever fits best with the dog’s regular routine. I have a big fenced in back yard and live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and a park 1 block away. I also have a good relationship with a local vet in case of emergencies.
“Chrissy is the BEST sitter on Rover. She takes AMAZING care of our dog when he stays at her house and does a great job with drop ins for my senior cat. They always get new treats and toys as long as you tell her it's okay! Our dog loves her and her existing pet family and is always excited when he gets to have a sleep over with Chrissy. Do yourself a favor and book her whenever you can!”

“It was a awesome experience. We were nervous to leave our six month old dog Bella with anyone since this was our first time leaving her for a vacation. They took her in and treated her as if she was their own dog. I received pictures daily of her to reassure me that she was doing good. I would definitely recommend their services.”


“Jill is amazing. She loves your dog like you cannot imagine. I have never used this site nor had I ever left my dog with someone who was not family or a close friend. We had plans to go away for a week and plan a and b fell through last minute. I needed to find the right dog sitter quickly. I am very particular about how my dog is cared for and who is caring for him so we "interviewed" people whom we felt would be best from this app. Jill was our second interview. She was the one and we quickly knew it. Her energy is calm, genuine and compassionate. She far exceeded our expectations, even to the detail of her questions about caring for Brody. She is loving, caring, and really knows a lot about dogs. She wanted to make sure my dog was comfortable and we were comfortable with leaving him with her. I got regular picture updates and communication. Her love and care for Brody made this experience more than amazing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was with Jill. I cannot thank her enough. I thank God for connecting us with Jill.”

“Marzipan had a great time at Linda's! She was flexible and it was clear he was well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely trust her with Marzipan again for future trips away. Thank you!”

About: Greetings! I am an experienced dog owner and pet sitter, and recently just lost my wonderful lab of 14.5 years. I'm experienced with puppies, adults, seniors, and everything in between, including any dog size petite to massive! I can administer medicine as well. We have a home about 4 blocks from Baker Park in a quiet neighborhood that is good for walks, and we have a fully fenced in backyard as well. I work from home M-F 8am to 5pm, and am generally home at all times. Occasionally I may step out for dinner with my wife or friends. I work from home Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, and am generally home at all times. My schedule is fairly flexible during working hours, so I can take our furry friend out for many breaks and walks. I have a fenced in back yard in a quiet neighborhood that's good for walking as well, with parks close by. We love dogs, small to large, and would be happy to host yours.
“Dorian took care of our senior dog with special needs during our travel out of state. I am really thankful to Dorian for his attention and care of Nina and for going above and beyond to make her comfortable and well cared for.”

“I think Mack had more fun with Marne and her family than she does at our house! Mack was a recent family addition and this was her first time away from us (a two week stay). Marne sent daily updates and sent Mack home with Christmas gifts since she stayed over the holidays. I am so glad we found a place for our girl when we go out of town!”

“Sophia was good for my cat. She is only a year and 4 months old and very timid and shy. She did not come out of hiding for a few days but gradually showed her face just a little bit. Eventually she let her pet her and brush her and play with her. I was so relieved. It took a lot of patience.”


“Justin is awesome. He cares for my kitty any time I’m away - very attentive to her needs well beyond what I outline for her care. For example, noticing that despite having a water fountain she likes still her water bowl, so he refilled that even though I’d said not to worry about it. He asked follow up questions to make sure Maggie was well cared for, and got great pictures of her, which showed he was clearly laying on the floor to hang out with her because she’s not much of a lap kitty and doesn’t tend to jump up on chairs or anything to make it easier to pet her. In addition, he kindly brought in a package that was delivered during our absence. Also, I have a severe food allergy that he is careful to accommodate while caring for Maggie the cat. Finally, it’s a huge plus and great to know that if needed, Kacy can step in if Justin isn’t available for some reason. Love the team of Kacy and Justin!! Recommend.”


“Amazing!!!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Lauren! She was so kind and attentive, and it was clear she genuinely cared for our cat. We appreciated the updates and photos—it really put us at ease while we were away.😊 I’d absolutely recommend Lauren’s services to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter. 10/10!”


“Sarah was just what we were looking for! She loved on our cat so much while we were away. Super responsive and we had an extra peace of mind knowing that our girl was all taken care of back home.”


“Shelby was such a pleasure to work with on short notice. She took excellent care of my boys and even got my scaredy cat to come out of hiding. Highly recommend and would definitely work with her again!”


“Delores was absolutely incredible! She took great care to gain the trust of my typically timid kitten, Dixie, and was even able to (repeatedly) help get her collar back on when Dixie had accidentally pulled it off. Delores was consistently easy to contact, exceptionally patient with the cats, and overall a wonderful pet sitter. She made leaving my pets home alone for the first time completely stress free, and I will definitely be asking her to watch Maisie and Dixie again in the future!”

“Kristy was on time and left thorough notes and photos to document her visit. She even got a photo of our very shy cat! She thought of every detail that I typically worry about while we're away, and her updates put my mind at ease. Definitely recommend!”


“Leslie is absolutely amazing!! Can’t recommend her enough!! She is extremely communicative with everything from her daily visits or issues that arose. Very prompt responses. We will be rebooking her for future visits.”

“Rose was a great cat sitter. She made sure our skittish cats were well taken care of and sent us daily photos (despite their attempts to hide). She even disposed of the remains of an unfortunate mouse that our cats had caught. Would definitely use her again.”

“Kim is so great with my two cats! And her daily notes with her pics and updates are so nice and thorough! I know my cats were taken care of and happy with Kim while I was on vacation for two weeks”


“Grace checked in on our cat twice a day for a week, feeding him his wet food, playing, cleaning his litter box and leaving fresh water. She was very communicative and always on time for the early morning feeds. She cleaned all of our cat’s food dishes and swept up any crumbs from his food and litter box. We very much appreciated her looking after our guy. It was nice not worrying about him while we were gone. Thank you!!”

“Lauren went above and beyond taking care of our cats! Our cats have 3 very different personalities and she did a great job making sure they were comfortable with her. She’s very thorough and left great report cards for us while we were away, I would definitely recommend Lauren for your pet care needs!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Frederick
About: Hi, my name is Adrienne. My husband Nick and I live in a row home in downtown Frederick. I am an animal lover and will treat your pets like my own! I have been providing pet sitting services for friends and families for over 20 years. And for over 16 years, I raised dogs from puppy to adulthood. I volunteer at humane societies and have experience carrying for dogs with medical and special needs. No breed or size is off limits. I have a lot of experience with small dogs. I have used rover as a pet parent and strive to be the best sitter for you. I will provide daily updates via phone, text, or email depending on your preferences. I love sending photo updates of your pet doing fun things. We have a fenced yard for your pet to play in. I offer a complimentary meet and greet before your booking to become acquainted with you and your pets. This meet and greet is important to ensure I am the right fit for you and your pets. Im currently working part time so have plenty of time to play with your fur baby. I am available throughout the day to check in and walk your pets and am available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends. Your pet will have freedom throughout our row home and the fenced in yard. If they prefer their space, they will have a bedroom and floor all to themselves. If they like to make friends, we have one really friendly 7lb yorkshire terrier that would love to be their new friend. Our dog is crate trained and can be kept separated based on the client’s preference.

About: my goal is to provide the best pet, dog and cat sitting service. Read on for how I set out to be that special caregiver for your pets. I came to pets and pet sitting “later in life,” and discovered, with great gratitude, a passion and a gift for taking care of your precious animal companions… because that is what they are, for you and for me. I’m not a casual caregiver, or a friend; I’m not walking your dog or feeding your cat or talking to your bird as a favor to you or as a part-time job or hobby. Nor am I in a hurry to get out of your home, or to ‘fit you in’ between errands. My total focus is your two most precious possessions: Your pets and your property…all day long, usually 7 days a week! I’m a full-time professional pet sitter, dedicated to the loving details of caring for your cats, dogs, birds and even chickens! I believe that pets should be as happy with a sitter as they are when their owners are at home (or close to it!). As one Asheville cat owner put it: “I enjoy your notes immensely. I feel like you know my cats as well as I do after a few short days.”
“My girl Ozzy had a great time with Rachel and her poodles. She made her feel welcom and Ozzy quickly settled in with everyone. She was flexible with my schedule and even watched her an extra hour when my event ran over. I am greatful Rachel was available on short notice and would happily book with her again.”

“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!”

About: My name is Chrissy and I am an avid animal lover that will treat your pets as they were my own! I have been providing pet sitting services for friends and families for 20+ years. I offer a complimentary meet and greet before your booking to become acquainted with you and your pets. This meet and greet is beneficial to ensure I am the right fit for you and your pets. I will take special care to keep your pet happy and healthy. Throughout your pets' stay with me, I will follow your instructions down to the tee, communicate with you throughout the day with updates or pictures through text, calls, or even email! Note: I do accommodate pets that require special care due to age, chronic illnesses, post-surgical recover, and/or other medical reasons. I understand the importance of your pets' needs. Please don't hesitate to ask any and all questions to ease your mind and let us know every detail necessary to meet your needs! I am currently working full time but I’m off on weekends, holidays and will be available for the summer (June-August). Your furbaby will have a wonderful vacation with Lucy and me! I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your furbaby company. I can allow a crate as needed. I always take my dog and rover dogs out for long walks.
“Marne, Bailey, and her family welcomed Leah last minute. Even though we both prefer meet and greets, they opened their doors to Leah for a full 10-hr daycare. They alsl addressed all my questions before booking, and before and after daycare. Loved, loved, loved the full communication between us about Leah's day and took great care of all Leah's need in a very structured manner. Based on the report card, leah had a blast with them. As a first time customer to them, I'm beyond happy to call them my first official dog sitters in their area, especially since I move all the time around the District of Columbia and the surrounding states. Thank you so much! We'll see you again!”

“Nova had a great time with Renee today. Renee was responsive, shared updates throughout the day, and made scheduling very easy. She was flexible and it truly felt like she treated Nova as her own. I will definitely use Renee and her husband again.”

“I left Joe and Bunny with Nat and Ally for day care and couldn’t have been happier with their updates and responsiveness. The pups came home tired but happy. Will definitely use the again.”

About: I've taken care of pet dogs for thenlast 15 plus years I owned 3 Rottweilers and competed them in the akc so I can take care of small or big dogs I currently work from home and am available all the time to take care of dogs and actually have the time to play and take care of the needs of the puppies or older dogs I have a fenced yard and are capable of taking great care of the pet I also would provide play time for them where they can play inside or outside
“Xiaoyi is so friendly and kind and considerate, she was very responsive and flexible, and took great care of my dog with lots of photos and videos. And she has a really nice home in a nice neighborhood in a Sage and convenient location. Definitely recommend her!”


About: As the go-to person for friends in need of dog-sitting, I recently figured "Why not expand?", hence my decision to register with Rover. Setting dogs and their people at ease brings me joy! I've had two dogs over the past 20 years: one slightly demonic and requiring special precautions, and the other a big, gentle galoot. Both absolutely stole my heart. I work from home and am available for walking (give me allll the exercise) and sitting (give me allll the cuddles). I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I'm around to give attention as needed, 7 days/week. I'm an early riser (6:30 give or take), so early walks or breakfasts would be no problem. I have a fenced yard that would be secure for all but the most accomplished escape artists. Your pet would have full access to all parts of the house (including furniture). That said, if crating, furniture restrictions, etc. work better for you and your dog, I would happily honor your typical rules and routines.

About: I have always had dogs around my whole life. My family currently has a German shepherd named Zuni however, I have moved out and live in an apartment with no furry friends of my own. Zuni however is always spoiled and I am willing to spoil your pups as much as my own! Including hikes, walks, treats, a bath, cleaning their ears brushing their teeth/ hair! Whatever you and your pup need to feel happy and comfortable! I am currently at home studying for a certification exam to become an occupational therapist and could use to get outside more! I love to walk and go hiking and would be more than happy to take a furry friend with me! I live in an apartment with stairs. My apartment building is dog friendly so some other residents do also have dogs. I would want to make sure or be aware if your pup likes to meet new friends or would need accommodations to prevent/ limit interactions with other dogs. Here dogs are of course allow to hangout on our furniture and snuggle up! Anything else feel free to reach out and I would hope to meet your pup soon!

“Maureen was amazing with my boy Tidus! He has a lot of energy and can be quite a handful sometimes, but I dropped him off for daycare and by the time I got to work, she already sent me pictures of him playing fetch with his favorite ball! He definitely made a new best friend! He obviously had a great time with how worn out he was all night after I picked him up! I trust very few people with my dog, but I will gladly have Tidus stay with Maureen anytime! Thanks so much!”

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels — from playful young labs and doodles to senior dogs and cats needing extra patience and attention. I’m naturally calm and gentle, but I also love matching a pet’s energy through play, walks, and engagement. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Since I’m home from college for the summer, I have a very open and flexible schedule that allows me to fully focus on pet care. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, exercise, and regular updates for owners throughout the day. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and companionship while adapting to each pet’s personality and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos for owners while they’re away.

“Kristen walked our black lab every day for two weeks while we were on vacation and he absolutely loved her. It was such a relief to know he was well cared for. Kristen sent detailed updates about their walks, which were super helpful, and she was very patient and caring with our dog. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Adrienne is thoughtful and caring and very very good at communicating. This is my 3rd time leaving my dog (a somewhat demanding pug) in her care. It will certainly not be our last.”

About: 🐾 About Me Hi there! I’m Kiara — a lifelong animal lover with over 14 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. From tiny, timid pups to big, energetic adventurers, I’ve learned that every dog has their own unique way of showing love — and I adore getting to know each one. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through professional services, friends, and families, providing everything from daily walks and cuddle time to medication administration and overnight stays. My priority is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 🐶 What You Can Expect • Reliable, communicative, and attentive care • Plenty of photo updates so you can relax while you’re away • A calm, loving environment with playtime, snuggles, and routine care • Experience with senior dogs and pets who need medication Whether your pup loves a long walk, a cozy nap, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to give them the same love and attention I’d want for my own fur babies. Can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member! 💕 I’m currently focusing on school, because of that I have a very flexible schedule which gives me a bit of extra time to take care of your pets weather is at your home or overnight at mines. I always ask the pet owners what is their daily routine with their fur babies and I will of course continue on with that same daily routine in my own home. I have a small dog and cat who love to cuddle and play! Your fur babies won’t be bored one bit!
“Grace was great with our energetic puppy Darcy. He was anxious to meet someone new, but she calmed him down with treats and pets. She was very communicative and arrived right on time. Would definitely recommend her as a dog walker!”


“Maureen is wonderful with our dog Vinnie! He doesn't like other dogs and she takes great care when walking him around the neighborhood. He really likes her too! Maureen is responsive and always prompt and sends us lots of pics with updates. Highly recommend!”

About: House Drop-Ins: I currently am a dog-mom to the cutest rescue Chihuhua/terrier pup, and plan to treat your pet just like my dog, Charli! I’ve also grown up with both dogs and cats and empathize with the apprehension you may feel before leaving them before work, errands, or another obligation. That's where I can help! I will treat your animal with kindness, respect, and love - as if they were my very own! Dog-Walking: I love to walk - especially with a cute, furry companion by my side! I've walked my fair share of animals growing up and am very confident in my ability to protect your pup while also giving them adequate exercise and time outdoors. A walk is so critical to a dog's physical and mental health, and I'm happy to fill in when you have prior obligations to tend to! So, rest assured your pup is in good hands. I currently work remotely, and have a lot of flexibility to care for your pet! I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure I can provide care during the times that work best for you! I have a spacious and safe backyard, and a very friendly 6 year old dog, Charli! She has never met a dog she doesn’t like :)

“Terri was absolutely wonderful. She let us do a meet & greet before leaving my pups which really gave me peace of mind. She had a nice & clean environment. Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”

“Renee and her husband were great sitters for our 18-month old, very anxious rescue dog. They were very accommodating - we needed to adjust dates and they were fine with that. Maggie had a great time with them - they gave her time to feel confident and comfortable before introducing her to the other dogs in their household. I received a picture and a happy update each day of Maggie's stay. They were comfortable administering Maggie's daily medicine.”

“Words cannot express my satisfaction having Annette look after Axel. Learning of her experience with fosters it was a no brainer to book with her. My experience dropping off and picking up, seeing her interact with my boy and hearing how she handled situations with him, solidified she will be my go to sitter. It was wonderful peace of mind to know Axel would be taken care of in a lovely home environment.”

“Kacy and Justin took excellent care of our anxious senior dog and kept us throughly updated with pictures. Will definitely keep them as one of our go to options for boarding.”

“We are incredibly grateful for the care Ellen gave Dugger and Maya this week. We had a last minute change in our schedule and needed to extend their stay by a day. Then on pickup day, I was going to arrive very late. She kindly and lovingly kept them an extra night without hesitation. While they were with her, she prepared delicious dinners for them, sent us videos and photos, and cared for them with so much love and attention. It is very clear that she truly loves what she does. Dugger and Maya absolutely love going to her farm, and we always feel at peace knowing they are in such good hands. We could not ask for better care.”

“Nat &Ally are amazing, this is by far the best Rover service that I ever had and I have been using Rovers for more than 3 years. They are very attentive, they do a meeting before the drop off day, they truly want to make sure my furbaby will feel welcome and safe. They asked all the right questions, food, timing, snacks, what is he allowed or not to do and so on. They have a backyard which is great for my chocolate lab to play and they have a playful dog that was perfect for Rocco. We even got a drawing from Rocco, from one of the kids, that made me cry…Happy cry! They are all super sweet. Love their vibe and respect. I recommend them 100%. I would be looking forward to work with them more often.”


About: I recently lost my 14-year old bulldog and I am looking to reconnect with dogs before committing to another long term companion. I have experience with senior dog care, to include dogs with cancer and dementia. I work full-time from home. During the day, I would be able to offer 2 15 -minute bathroom visits/walks during my breaks from work. I also have flexibility when other needs arise. In the evenings, I am free to give your dog as much love and attention as they desire. I only accept 1 dog at a time (unless multiple dogs are from the same owner and the dogs are pair bonded). I was single handedly responsible for my own dog for 11 years before she died of old age, so I know what it takes to compassionately care for a dog. I have also watched my friends’ dogs and my parent’s dog for weeks at a time. Taking care of dogs is not a new experience for me. I work from home and have complete control over the flexibility of my schedule. I can take breaks from my work to attend to your dogs needs 2 times per day during my 15-minute breaks. I am free evenings. I can also use my breaks to give walks/pet stop-ins if within close proximity to my house. I am willing to take care of dogs who prefer free play in a fenced in yard or those that prefer longer leash walks or park outings. I have no problem with free roam in the house or crating, whichever fits best with the dog’s regular routine. I have a big fenced in back yard and live in a neighborhood with sidewalks and a park 1 block away. I also have a good relationship with a local vet in case of emergencies.
“Marzipan had a great time at Linda's! She was flexible and it was clear he was well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely trust her with Marzipan again for future trips away. Thank you!”

About: Greetings! I am an experienced dog owner and pet sitter, and recently just lost my wonderful lab of 14.5 years. I'm experienced with puppies, adults, seniors, and everything in between, including any dog size petite to massive! I can administer medicine as well. We have a home about 4 blocks from Baker Park in a quiet neighborhood that is good for walks, and we have a fully fenced in backyard as well. I work from home M-F 8am to 5pm, and am generally home at all times. Occasionally I may step out for dinner with my wife or friends. I work from home Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, and am generally home at all times. My schedule is fairly flexible during working hours, so I can take our furry friend out for many breaks and walks. I have a fenced in back yard in a quiet neighborhood that's good for walking as well, with parks close by. We love dogs, small to large, and would be happy to host yours.
“Dorian took care of our senior dog with special needs during our travel out of state. I am really thankful to Dorian for his attention and care of Nina and for going above and beyond to make her comfortable and well cared for.”

“I think Mack had more fun with Marne and her family than she does at our house! Mack was a recent family addition and this was her first time away from us (a two week stay). Marne sent daily updates and sent Mack home with Christmas gifts since she stayed over the holidays. I am so glad we found a place for our girl when we go out of town!”

“Thank you Miranda for taking such great care of my corgi. The regular updates with photos were a great comfort knowing my 4 footed friend was safe and having a great time!”


“I knew after our Meet and Greet that Gordon would be in good hands with Jennifer. She is obviously a dog lover and realizes the level of trust and responsibility required to be a good dog sitter. She asked all of the appropriate questions, making sure she understood Gordon's needs and my expectations. While "on the job", she sent several pictures each day, keeping me posted on Gordon's activities, and Gordon came home a very happy camper. I will definitely leave Gordon with her again and again.”

“Samantha was absolutely amazing! She has a love for dogs that was immediately obvious by the way she interacted with my dog Maestro. I received frequent updates with heart warming pictures and felt connected the entire time. I would 100% recommend and will be rebooking Samantha for any future needs.”

“She did an excellent job and let us know how our dog was doing everyday. We appreciated the pictures that she sent us to let us know that our dog was doing ok. Highly recommend and will be using her services again.”


About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for years. I previously worked at a veterinary hospital, where I cared for pets in a kennel setting and assisted with appointments, giving me experience with animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and also currently furthering my vet med education. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am a stay at home (expecting) mom, and my schooling is also done at home. You can rest assured knowing that your fur baby will get constant attention and affection I have ample house space and yard space for your fur baby. I also make walks apart of my daily habit so you can rest assured knowing your baby will get all the exercise they could dream of
“We were so lucky to find Nancy to help with our dog! She kept us updated with information and pictures. We felt very comfortable with our dog in Nancy’s care and will happily bring our girl back for another stay!”

“Kathleen and her family were great with Barkley! Her daily texts and pictures were very reassuring that he was having a great time! I will definitely use her again and recommend her to care for your pet as her own!”
