Personalized care for your dog or cat - Hyattstown

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Hyattstown
“Amazing!!! Samantha and her family watched our corgi, Momo, for two whole weeks. We got daily pictures and videos and updates, which we LOVED. She took great care of him and treated him like her own <3 He really fell in love with them (and with Winston, their friendly family dog). I’m not sure Momo wanted to come home hahaha. Best experience I could’ve asked for!”


“Sophia provides outstanding dog care! We were very pleased with how should took such great care of our dog and highly recommend her. She offers great communication and is eager to know how she can provide the best care for your pup.”

“Ivan did a great job taking care of our dogs Hank and Duke. They both have a lot of energy and Ivan made sure they got the exercise they needed on a daily basis. Ivan was kind enough to send pictures of the dogs to us on a daily basis while we were away. They always looked happy and entertained. We can't thank Ivan enough for the care and attention he showed our dogs. We would definitely use him again.”

“Our dog loves staying with Nat and Ally! She has the best time running around with their dog and they take great care of her. Thrilled to book with them again and would/will do so again in a heartbeat!”

“Our dog loved her stay with Lily! She especially loved the big fenced backyard and playing with Lily’s Pomeranian Ted. Lily was wonderful about sending us updates and lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Lily and we are so happy that we found a home away from home for our dog!”

“Priscila (and her mom) did an awesome job with our two pups! We got pictures and videos and updates on our week-long vacation and our boys looked very happy. You can really tell they are animal lovers. I would not hesitate to book with her again!”

“Amazing with our dog —she loves them both. Very kind, caring, and communicative. This is our third stay with Marne and John. It was really nice to know she was safe and happy while we were away.”

“Cameron did an amazing job with Zeke! I will absolutely be using him again. He was responsive, sent photos, kept me updated. I could not have asked for a better Rover. A plus is that Zeke was totally wiped after spending a few days at Cameron's place. Cameron has a huge backyard which Zeke took full advantage of! Thanks again, Cameron.”

“This was our puppy’s second time staying overnight with Rachel and Jason, and we couldn’t be happier. They send pictures and updates, which brings us so much peace of mind while we’re away. They give him so much love, and it’s clear he has the best time with them. We will definitely be back and can’t recommend them enough!”

“Batman had a wonderfully fun stay with Christina! We had a last minute boarding necessity and she was able to take our 70lb lab/pit for a few days and night. It was his first time being away from home and we were a little worried about how he would do, but she kept us updated and was in constant communication with us throughout his stay!”
“Marylee was wonderful. Our girls loved going there. She has a wonderful LARGE back yard that the dogs loved. I have moved out of the area so unfortunately, we can't use her anymore, but if we were close enough, we certainly would.”

“Mindy has been great! We are getting tired of commercial daycare places where your dog spends 90% of the day in a kennel by themselves. We were looking for a person who takes care of dogs in their own home where they can be out and about with other dogs. Our dog is always excited to go to Mindy's and she is always tired when she gets home which is perfect! Thanks again Mindy!”

“Sandra did a great job watching Nala. She has a big yard and an outdoor area designed specifically for dogs to play. Drop off and pick up was easy and convenient. Will definitely book again!”

“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!”

“Carol was an excellent host to my dog Coco. Coco seemed to have a lot of fun playing with her and didn't miss me at all. Carol regularly sent me pics and videos of coco playing which was very assuring. I would definitely go back to her and also recommend her to my friends in case they need someone to take care of their dogs. Thanks Carol once again for taking such good care of Coco :)”

“Christina was great! She was very communicative and sent me pics of my sweet pup throughout his stay. She was careful to introduce him to the other dogs slowly which I'm very grateful for. I accidentally forgot my dog's food when I dropped him off and Christina was nice enough to grab him some from the store (which I reimbursed her for). That kind of willingness to go above and beyond is rare and deeply appreciated! I will definitely be using Christina and Alex again when I'm in the area!”

“Raghavi and her family were great. From the start, they made sure to get to know Archie and understand his needs, and Archie was very comfortable with the family as well as their dog, Simba. If you’re looking for a sitter who will love and care your pet like their own, I highly recommend Raghavi!”

“Rene was lovely. She was kind, timely, responsive, and I very much trusted her with my cat. My cat was a brat, and she was very sweet about the situation. I would absolutely book her again and recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter.”


“Leslie was amazing with my cats while I was away for a week. She was always punctual and sent me daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my cats were well cared for, and I came home to happy pets. I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again!”


“Lauren did so great! She was thorough and went above and beyond. She communicated and let us know on all the animals happenings. We will definitely use her services in the future!”

“Candice took exceptional care of our cat, Mirza, while we were away. Her kindness, attention to detail, and genuine compassion put us completely at ease. It was clear from the start that she truly cares about the pets she looks after. Throughout the booking, Candice kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which made us feel so reassured that Mirza was in great hands. We returned home to a happy, relaxed cat, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her care. I highly recommend Candice to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We’ll absolutely be reaching out to her again for future trips!”


“Rosie took great care of our kitties while we were away for the holidays. She shared notes to keep us updated and to check-in with any questions or news. Her help was greatly appreciated!”


“Once again an awesome experience with Misty and Fiona. They sent notes and pictures from every visit and we could clearly see that our girls were comfortable and well taken care of. This is the second of many more bookings in the future. Highly recommend- 5 stars”

“Rebecca was very professional when she communicated with us. She sent me pictures and described what she did during the visit. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Rebecca check on our cats again when we’re away.”

“As always, Nicole was super friendly and professional. She gave our little diva cat all the attention she needed and we were very happy Nicole was available. This is our 2nd booking with Nicole and we would gladly rebook in the future.”

“Regina is such a great house and pet sitter. She takes the best care of our senior cat while we’re away, even for long periods of time! I recommend Regina for your pet sitting needs!”


“Riley gave me lots of peace of mind that Bun was being taken care of, looked after, and getting the attention she loves. She left a little summary on the rover card of what she did and how Bun was, and included a few photos for each drop in so I could see that Bun was doing well. I would definitely recommend booking Riley!”


“She took care of my Kitties last minute, and one of them I adopted a week ago and they weren't quite on hospitable terms yet. She allowed them to interact gently while being ready to separate in case of throwing paws. She also followed special feeding directions for my elderly cat who needs stuff mixed in and her pate in an extra soupy mash.”

“Brooke did fantastic taking care of my cats while I was away! She made sure to keep me updated with pictures and messages of how they were doing. They loved their play time and treats while mom was away :) Thank you Brooke!”


“Ameneh was so easy to work with! She provided great daily updates on our loves as well as an unexpected update on our home- a neighbors tree fell and blocked our driveway! Our little loves were well cared for and I will definitely look to book her again!”


“When we returned for vacation, I noticed that my dog was well-trained. It seems that I not only hired a pet sitter but also a pat trainer. My neighbor informed me of her exceptional skills with my dog. Now they like to have her as pat sitter as well. She was very responsive and on time every time”


“Absolutely THRILLED with the excellent care given to our orange tabby by Eva over the Thanksgiving holiday. We found Eva via Rover and were especially drawn to her because of her profile photo with her own kitty. (Seems that most Rover caregivers are focused on dogs. Eva takes care of dogs, too!) We had a meet and greet with Eva along with a second advance meeting to turn over the key. In both pre-visits, Eva was punctual and professional, as well as warm and personable. She is also conscientious and respectful. For example, although we didn't ask her to do so, she removed her shoes at the front door. She was careful approaching our cat, allowing him to meet her on his terms. Eva took all of our instructions and asked great questions so we were all on the same page. She even asked for a sweeper to clean up the kitty litter. In addition, we asked Eva to bring in our mail and newspapers. She left the papers carefully by the door and the mail in a neat pile on the counter. She had washed the bowls and utensils and everything was so tidy when we returned. We had great communication with Eva during the visit, and we really like Rover's check-in/check-out procedures and photos. All of this is to give Eva high praise and big thanks and kudos for exceptional service. We would hire Eva again without hesitation. She is terrific!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Hyattstown
“This was Jax's first time with Nat and Ally and it was fantastic. They kept me updated most of the day with very fun-loving photos of the other dogs playing...Jax was smiling in every photo or just chillin'. The icing on the cake was the family's son handing me a drawing of Jax's name in big beautiful letters. I will definitely be sending Jax here again! :)”


“Caden is an incredible sitter. He kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy started off shy, and Caden knew exactly how to support him — even hand‑feeding him to make sure he ate despite being nervous. His home is welcoming, and his mom is just as sweet and attentive with the dogs. I highly recommend him and will definitely book again. 10/10.”

“Israel took such great care of my puppy! They sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. They kept me informed about how he was doing, responded quickly to my messages, and were incredibly friendly. It was clear that my puppy was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book with Israel again and highly recommend them!”

“Ingrid was fantastic with Zazu! Also very responsive and accepted last-minute booking and sent tons of pictures and videos. If I am ever in the area again, I will surely be going to her.”

“Ellen is wonderful and very reliable. Warm and friendly. My girls had a good time and even met some new friends. I would definitely recommend Ellen as a dependable pet sitter.”


“We have used Sophia twice now for daytime services and each time, our dog came home safe and happy. It's obvious Sophia has a lot of experience with pet care and gives me confidence in her ability to keep our dog happy. Sophia responds quickly to texts and provides pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sophia to any pet parent. In fact, we already have Sophia booked for a long term stay while we go on vacation.”

“Renee took great care of our dog at daycare! Good communication and sent pics/updates. Our fur baby came home happy and tired from a day of fun playing with Renee and her two dogs. Would recommend to anyone in need of doggie daycare and will definitely use her services again!”

“Yuhui took great care of Miso, played with her, and gave Miso a lot of attention. She gave us a detailed report on what Miso did during her time there and took her out on multiple walks. Miso enjoyed spending her time there.”
“Dawn was an incredible sitter! She kept me updated throughout the entire process with great communication, photos, and videos of Scooby. She even gave him three toys- so thoughtful! I’d definitely recommend her.”

“Thank you both for watching my dog. I appreciate the transparency and how well Rocky was taken care of. I would definitely recommend you for anyone looking for great dog sitters.”


“Jennifer is always wonderful with Sami. When Sami visits I’m always confident she’s being well cared for. I’m grateful that Jennifer provides photos and updates. I would highly recommend Jennifer.”

“Sriju is a wonderful person. She gives fantastic care to my dog when Daisy stays on Wednesdays. I'm very happy to have found Sriju. I know my dog will be well cared for when I'm at work. 🐶🤗”

“Mocha is a regular client of LaurieBeth's since we adopted her a few months ago. Mocha is always so excited to spend the day with her and gets lots of affection and exercise. I am also super appreciative of LaurieBeth because Mocha is working on her obedience training and LaurieBeth didn't hesitate to help us reinforce the behaviors. So grateful!”

“She is the BEST!! Can't imagine what could have done without her in this weather. Every morning Chico waits for her. She is always on time and flexible. We love her!!”

About: I have raised my own dog since she was ten weeks old, mentored by my father who has raised three litters of puppies throughout his life. I have also done pet-sitting for friends and family for dogs as small as beagle puppies to as large as a Labrador. I am a Graduate student, but I manage to take six- mile walks every morning year-round. As my classes are in the evening, I can fit dog-walking into my schedule in the mornings and early afternoons. I am attentive and responsible for my pets needs, and take pride in ensuring that the animals I care for are happy and healthy. I have a nine-year-old mixed breed dog who enjoys her daily walks and sunbathing on the deck, but does not enjoy the company of other dogs very much.

“Rosie is awesome! She loves and cares for my dog Stormi every single day! She definitely makes me feel calm and worry-free knowing my dog is getting a great walk, extra play, and love!”

“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.”

“Ashley has wow’d again!! She held down a job that was booked pretty late and did it with such excellence. We were across the Atlantic in West Africa and she kept us updated every day, every step of the way. We highly recommend Ashley!!”


About: i’ve been walking/ taking out dogs since i was 13 for friends and family. i love dogs so much, they deserve the care and attention they need. i enjoy bonding with new dogs and learning more and more about each breed. i can’t wait to be your dogs best friend! currently searching for a job to fit me, but in the meantime would love to take care of some furry friends! i am available pretty often and i have my own little dog at home, so im used to taking care of her! i have a dog named willow. she is the sweetest king charles cavalier spainel ever! she loves meeting new friends. i don’t have a fenced in yard because we have a big back yard with a lot of woods, but there is a dog park near me with a big open field fenced in that my dog loves!
“Sheila has been walking my dog Violet since July. She is trustworthy, reliable, flexible and caring. She has lots of expirience with dogs and can handle walking a dog that doesn't have the best manners on a leash! My dog Violet seems to really enjoy her walks with Sheila! She has been able to fit in a walk for Violet every single time I have asked, even if I have contacted last minute due to a scheduling conflict on my end. Sheila is very detail oriented and observant and will notice and alert you if something seems off/different about your dog. I can't say enough good things about Sheila!”

“Julia did a great job with Oakley! She took for a nice long walks and he seemed super happy in the pictures she shared. She had good communication and I would definitely used her again.”

“Misty is fantastic. Caring about your pup…treats like her own. On time, just wonderful to work with, and my dog never looked back as he went out the door. Instantly knew he was loved.”

“We’re so glad we found Alyssa. She was easy-going and stayed in great communication throughout, which meant a lot to us. Aoife and Klay can be a little particular and don’t always warm up to new people quickly, but Alyssa handled them effortlessly and they clearly adored her. It’s a relief to know they were in such good hands. We’d book her again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation.”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I’m currently going to school to become a professional dog trainer. Because of my flexible school schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. For the past 11 months, I’ve worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My job has taught me how to safely handle group play, recognize canine body language, administer basic care, and ensure every dog feels comfortable and secure. I’m currently going to school to become a professional dog trainer. Because of my flexible school schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve.

About: Have had dogs all my life, small/large and medically complex needing meds, love to train, have done cat sitting for medical cats and normal ones I am currently a student in college but only have 2 classes a per week, also am active and am willing to change schedules around :) I am currently not taking pets for boarding as I have my own dog now, but would love to take care of your pets at your home and provide them with enrichment whenever you need/want.
“Candice is a dog whisperer. She is intuitive, compassionate, kind, very down to Earth, and reliable. I am a picky dog and human mom, and I completely trust her with my sweet but anxious reactive Navi. I am beyond grateful to have found Candice.”

“I have been extremely satisfied with the dog walking services provided by Cornell over the past months. He has consistently demonstrated exceptional reliability, arriving punctually for every scheduled walk and maintaining clear communication throughout our arrangement. His genuine care for my dogs has been evident in the detailed updates and photos he shared after each outing, ensuring they received attentive, safe, and engaging exercise. I highly recommend his professional and trustworthy services to any pet owner seeking a dependable dog walker.”

“Jessie has been wonderful with our pup Sadie. She is a great communicator and texts updates if there are any changes to the schedule. It’s fun to see all the pictures she adds to the daily report. We appreciate all she does for Sadie.”

About: HAWKINS DOES NOT LIVE WITH ME FULL TIME, HE LIVES WITH MY FATHER :) I've been a dog lover since childhood! I've been watching, walking and giving lots of love to my own dog (Hawkins) for about 3 years now! However, I was asked to walk and check-in on dogs several times in my complex and neighborhood! This happens especially in my family, as a lot of my family members have one or more dogs they ask me to take care of when they go out of town, or just need a break! I've been caring for a diverse range of breeds, from a Shih Tzu to a Golden Retriever since I was basically 10 years old! I love to work, play with dogs, and save to pay off my student loans! I'll have some availability on the weekends when I don't have class, usually starting around 12pm! There are plenty trails, parks and squares around Maryland, which will provide your dog plenty of room for extra exercise, plenty of playing, and exploring! I will happily take your dog for long walks, play with them however your living space will allow, and play with them as long as you are comfortable with in the parks!

About: Experience With 10+ years of professional dog-walking experience and 15+ years as a dedicated dog owner, I bring both hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. I prioritize safety, patience, exercise, and companionship, while making sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pup company, I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. 🐾❤️ About Me I’m currently going back to school and looking for a flexible, part-time opportunity to fill the time between classes, studying, reading, and staying active. I’m a dependable, hardworking, and energetic person who enjoys staying busy and helping others wherever I can. Outside of school, I love playing sports, staying active, reading, and spending time with animals. I’m looking for a part-time position that allows me to contribute my time and skills while also getting more involved in and giving back to my community. I’m happy to help with the odds and ends that keep things running smoothly and bring a positive, reliable attitude to whatever I take on. 🐾📚🏐 My Commitment to Your Pets & Home 🐾🏡 When you’re away, you can feel confident knowing that your pets and your home are in trustworthy hands. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable caring for the things you love most. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care I would want for my own, keeping things clean, organized, and secure. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routines, provide plenty of attention and companionship, and make sure they have everything they need while you’re away. My goal is simple: happy, well-cared-for pets and a clean, secure home when you return. You can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and respectful every step of the way. ❤️🐶🐱

“I would not hesitate to recommend Yuhui to anyone. Chester had a wonderful time with her! She is super attentive and takes great care of my dog.

“Our fur-baby Charley looked like he enjoyed his stay with Terry and Shep. Because they provided daily updates, pictures, and videos we could see he was happy and content. I would highly recommend Terry and Shep to anyone looking for a pet sitter. They have a very nice house and yard so we felt very comfortable leaving Charley there. We can not thank them enough for taking such excellent care of Charley and reducing our anxiety due to leaving him with "strangers". We will definitely be reaching out to them again when we need a pet sitter.”


“Evvery was wonderful with our dogs. We knew that she would have another dog with her and wanted to test our foster dog in that situation. She met us outside and took all 3 dogs on a walk until they acclimated. We received several videos and pictures of how they were getting along. Other sitters may skip out on that last walk before the dogs are picked up but Everry kept to the schedule. I highly recommend her and will use her in the future.”

“Outstanding care was provided for my Golden retriever. I'm eager to book another reservation because my dog was so happy when she was with this very kind family! She enjoyed meeting their friendly dog, Dell, and she loved playing with Dell in their large backyard. Communication with James and Nicolette was also great and they were very accommodating when I arrived late to pick-up, due to a snowstorm.”

“Asher and Olivia had a wonderful time with Jason! We really appreciated Jason's frequency of communication. This was our first time boarding our puppies and we couldn't have asked for a better experience!”

“Zia absolutely loved her stay with Iwona. We were given daily updates and photos and Iwona was very responsive. Nubi and Zia were so cute together. I will definitely rebook with Iwona. Thank you so much Iwona for taking care of Zia so well when we were out of the country. Really gave us peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands.”
