“Terri and Chuck are so caring and so thorough with their fur guests. They welcomed our pup Sienna with open arms, and followed all of our instructions for care. Terri genuinely loves animals and it shows in the care she gives them. We loved the many pictures and video updates during our trip. Thank you Terri!”
“Lucy was well taken care of at Renee's. I had peace of mind while I was away and Renee communicated when she needed advice about Lucy. I would recommend Renee for anyone needing a place their dog.”
“My pups had a great time with Adrienne, who accommodated us last minute. Our pups are high anxiety and they settled in quickly and happily for a couple of nights at her place. She’s great about providing the amount of updates you feel comfortable with, and was thoughtful with how she prepared for their stay. I would definitely recommend!”
“Jon and Mary took great care of our Faye. We haven't left our puppy with anyone before so we were very nervous. They put us at ease by talking to us for a while about their rover experience. They have two adorable, friendly, fun loving labs that played with our little Faye. Their family all pitched in to keep Faye happy and active. We will definitely be using Jon and Mary again. Highly recomend!”
“Thank you so much for taking such phenomenal care of Snoopy! You completely put our minds at ease from the start. The daily photo updates were great and put our minds at ease. It was clear that he was in good hands. Snoopy came home happy and relaxed and we will definitely be booking again!”
“Our dog loves going to stay with Jolene and her family. They communicate in a timely way. Our dog always comes home happy. I trust Jolene and am so happy to have found her!”
“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!”
“Annette is the best! I actually hesitate to leave a review because I don't want all of her spaces to fill up! Your dog will be welcomed into the fold and Annette will ask you about - and then pay attention to - their needs. She has been fostering for so long, she has literally seen everything – and can deal with everything. Teddy had a great time, and I left with new insights into her behaviors. Annette is a gem.”
“5/5 Stars – Exceptional Care for Bella! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our sweet Bella during our trip. Dorian was great, responsive from the start, and he sent updates as soon as possible when I requested. Bella came home happy and relaxed. We definitely will book with him again in the future. If you're looking for someone who treats your dog like family, Dorian is your person, we highly recommend!”
“If you're at all apprehension about leaving your pets with a caregiver, message Michelle!!! This was our 1st experience with a stranger caring for our pets and we were extremely happy with Michelle and her family. She often sent photos and videos of our pets playing with her dogs and also her sweet little girls. They have a large fenced in back yard for the dogs to run and play. We would not hesitate to have Michelle care for our pets in the future. Thank you so much!!!”
“Oliver was so loved by Svitlana and her family. I had regular updates and photos, and my dog seemed so comfortable and happy while there. Svitlana was very communicative, and I highly recommend her. We will be repeat customers for sure.”
“Karen was amazing with Jazzy! Our dog has significant separation anxiety, but Karen immediately understood her needs and knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable and secure. The farmland is a huge plus offering plenty of safe, private space for dogs to play and explore. Best of all, Karen and her family treated Jazzy like one of their own. We had complete peace of mind knowing our fur baby was so well cared for, and we're incredibly grateful to have found a sitter we trust. The ample pictures and videos were an added bonus! We'll definitely be back again and again!”
“I left my baby girl for a week with John and they were the best. They really took a great care of my baby and gave constant updates with pictures and videos. They answered any questions I had. I could enjoy my vacation cause I could trust them with coco. I would definitely recommend them.”
“Sandra is our favorite! Went away for Thanksgiving and luckily Sandra was available to sit my baby, Irma. Sandra sends many photos everyday and makes me feel like my Irma is having a great time! When I picked up Irma, she looked like she would have rather stayed! 100/100 Sandra is the best around!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She sent me daily pictures so I could see Nyx on walks, cuddling, or playing. I use Rover because I like the indivualized attention and updates, and Jennifer did great. She was flexible with drop off and pickup times, too!”
“Wow! My family and I felt and knew we left our pups in great hands with Michelle. She sent daily updates and photos. One photo looked like my dog was literally smiling. I would book again in a heartbeat with Michelle!”
“Candace is amazing at giving updates of my baby and making sure he is comfortable. Being a last minute booking, Candace still took my baby in and she’s very reliable. I will continue booking with her.”

“Jennifer was lovely! She house sat for our three cats, which includes two rambunctious kittens. She followed instructions and provided updates, and left our house in great condition.”
“Our cat loves Milena. She always takes great care of him and allows lots of playtime. Her daily visit recaps show how much she understands his personality and her pics show how happy he is to see her. She makes leaving him home so much easier.”
“Rylyn took great care of Mimi. She even got her to come out of hiding. No one else besides me has been able to since Dec, 2023. Great accomplish. Rylyn jumped in to pick up extra visits - left earlier & delayed getting back on time. I will definitely use her again.”
“Justine has watched my cat twice now. She is always friendly and my cat seems to be pretty comfortable around her! I love how she hides treats for Skittles. Highly recommend Justine!”
“Jessica and her daughter are a wonderful team! We had an unexpected last minute trip and she was able to come out and meet us straight away. They both came to care for our 3 cats and 2 guinea pigs. When one cat wouldn't eat, she texted right away and worked with us to get her fed separately. They played with our babies, took care of all the feeding and cleaning, and left our house spotless - even cleaning the animals food bowls! I highly recommend Jessica for your pet sitting needs. Thank you both for taking such great care of our babies!”
About: All my life I’ve grown up around dogs, rabbits, fish, and most recently cats! So I’m no stranger to the cuddly, silly, and sometimes unpredictable behaviors pets can throw your way. I have experience volunteering at the Carroll County Humane Society working in the cat room to socialize kitties, and in the dog area providing them with enrichment activities! As a longtime pet lover and owner I understand that every animal is unique and has their own quirks and personalities, and I’m capable of learning your pet and giving them the best care I can! I always treat my clients homes and pets with care and respect. I’m sure to clean up after myself and the pets. I’m not just a pet sitter I’m also a house sitter so I’m willing to get the mail, take trash out, etc…
About: I’ve dog sat for a few family friends and absolutely loved it! I love animals (especially dogs) and would be happy to care for your doggo. I currently work part time but I set my own hours! So evenings or early mornings could definitely work out for me. I also am a college student starting back up in the fall semester of 2025 but my schedule is very flexible. I don’t think I would be able to care for your pets in my current living situation but would be happy to come to you when needed! I love walking and I’d be thrilled to bring a friend along with me (your dog).
“Having just moved to a new area, I was extremely anxious about lining up a cat sitter for an pre-planned vacation. Dollie didn't disappoint! She came for a meet-and-greet to get to know the cats and understand my expectations about their care. She then followed those instructions to the tee for the 8 days we had her scheduled for. She was very communicative each day and let me know how everything was going with texts and pictures. I will definitely book Dollie again next time I need a cat sitter!”
“Abby did a fantastic job taking care of our kitty Marbles and our apartment while we were away. She always sent us pictures of her visits and made sure that Marbles was given lots of attention and cuddle/play time. You can definitely tell that Abby is an animal lover and would take excellent care of any animal. We will definitely be using Abby again in the future for any sitting needs!”
“Sofia did a great job with our two dogs while we were gone for the week. She sent pictures every time she was there. She communicated very well and did everything we asked of her. Will definitely rebook and recommend Sofia.”

“Kelly did a fantastic job of taking care of my cats while we were away! She took great pictures of everything while she was visiting, contacted me right away when she had questions about some things, which I greatly appreciated, and even pulled packages and mail inside so it wouldn't pile up while we were away.

“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 taken care of cats and dogs for the past 30 years. In the past 10 years have enjoyed taking care of my senior Beagles. I'm off for the summer so just about any day works! In the fall, my schedule will allow Mon- Fri after 3pm. Can't wait to help out! I can help you in your home with feeding, walking and playing with your pet. If your pet just needs snuggles, I'm there for it.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was little. I can really connect with them easily! It makes me happy that your pets are taken care of! Anytime, just let me know! I take time in my schedule to go to the gym as well, but that can be moved around if anything pops up! I have a fenced yard, so for my dogs I usually get toys out and play with them for a good bit. Maybe throw in some training treats for new skills. I can walk your pets, and learn what they love doing in your home! Even if that means cuddle time too!
About: I have had dogs all my life. I currently have 3 dog's now and just enjoy their company because they make me happy. We like them more than people at times. A dog will always be in my life. Even have tattoo of 3 my best camping buddies I have currently retired from government serves after 36 years. Now I have fun jobs. Dog sitting and DJing. I have no kids just dogs , but my dogs and your dogs are my kids and I just love love having new joys to watch. I had 5 doggies at one time,but we are now down to 3 pups. I will always have fur babies as part of my life. I care for my pets as if they were my kids. I have no kids. So they are spoiled. Even when I watch other people’s dogs they are treated better than their own homes they don’t want to go back. Our own pets are under my Carroll county kennel Lic #60 Pryors pawls palace! Your pets are treated as if they are mine. Big yard to play in and to play with my dogs if they like them. If they don’t I have plenty of rooms to keep them safe. And if your the type that would prefer to have someone stay at your place so you dog doesn’t get upset i can work with you as well and follow all your dogs needs. I’ll even pick your mail up and take your trash out.
“Jen and John are so reliable! We needed a dog walk with only one week notice. They responded within a day. The dogs love them! They walk and play every time.”
About: Ive been taking care of my neighbors, friends, and families pets for a little over 6 years now. Over the years I have learned many things about pets and how to calm them down and gently direct them in the right path. I also have lots of experience with senior dogs who need more attention to detail than younger dogs. Pet care fits into my daily routine quite well. Im a sophomore at frederick community college taking only one in person class, so my hours are almost always completely available! I am the dominant pet care taker in my home with two dogs (my angels). I care for pets in my clients home by greeting them and let them get to know me. If the client has a fenced in yard for me to take the dogs out and play thats amazing, but if not I take the dogs for nice walk to get them exercise and some entertainment. I am all for following directions so just let me know what you need and ill handle it!
About: First I just want it to be known that I am willing to work with clients on pay rates and negotiate to a rate that fits for both of us. The rates listed are not set in stone. I have cared for cats, small-large dogs in various breeds (Beagles, Pitbull's, Labs, Shelty's, and more) for several years now for close friends and family near the Frederick area. I also have experience with smaller animals like Guinea Pigs, Gerbils, Bunnies, Fish, Turtles, and Hermit Crabs. I myself have a 6 year old Beagle and have been taking care of her for the passed 5 years now. I am home from college for summer break and will be available most weeks days in the evenings and some weekends. Other than work and preparing for school events I will not have much on my plate, giving plenty of time to care for your pets. I care for my clients pets with upmost care and love while maintaining expectations of what the client needs or prefers for their pets. This may include taking your dogs for daily walks, playing with them, making sure they are fed, bathing them, cleaning up any potty accidents, and spending quality time with them to keep company while their owners are away. For cats this may include keeping their litter boxes clean, making sure they are fed of course, playing with them, and quality time as well. I rely on clients to give me information on their pets routines so the pets themselves aren't as confused with a new person taking care of them.
“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: I have had dogs since I was 5, and I started working at a doggy daycare when I was 18. My senior year of highschool I was an intern at a local animal hospital and I loved it! I would love to spend the summer with your dogs and provide whatever services and help you may need! I am currently unemployed for the summer, so I can spend any time needed with your dogs. I have applied for jobs, so if my availability changes you will be notified but as of right now I am free to do anything. I have a huge (not fenced in) backyard. Since working at the doggy daycare, I have experience in helping dogs into crates, doing specific food for the dogs, attending to their personal needs, and making sure they have hours of entertainment and love.
“Matthew was extremely flexible and patient managing the needs of our Siberian Husky, Bristol. He showed experience and good instincts managing Bristol's challenging behavior. We asked him to take Bristol for 30 minute walks each day and Matthew went above & beyond that request to make sure Bristol got sufficient exercise. We enjoyed our time away even more knowing Bristol was in good hands! 10/10 would recommend and use again!”
“Lauren was a pleasure to work with and having her help was greatly appreciated and our pups enjoyed her visiting ! She's very responsive and takes in feedback very well! I would recommend her to others.”
About: I have always had a cat and dog of my own growing up but I love all animals big and small. Whenever my family, friends, and neighbors need pet care I am always their first call! I have many years of experience, practically my whole life, because I am known as a trustworthy and reliable caretaker. I make sure to give any animals love and attention and treat other’s animals as if they are my own. I always go above and beyond when caring for animals making sure they are happy and healthy. I have walked, fed, and cared for animals of many kinds. I love keeping them company while their owners are busy and I am willing and able to clean up after them.
About: I'm a stay at home mom (during the summer) of 2 teenage boys and would like to interact with some furry friends as well. I love playing and cuddling with all furry animals. I feel pets should have fun and interact during the day, just like you. I'm a lover of all breeds, sizes, shapes, colors, and ages. I got my first dog over 30 years ago and have had them in my life ever since. If you're looking for a passionate caretaker for your dog(s) and/or cat(s), then I'm the person for you! Please consider me for taking care of your furry children! I'll love and care for your pet just like you! I’m currently off from school, so I’m looking to fill my time with caring, playing, and cuddling with your furry friends during the summer time. I have a fenced in yard with gaps, so I would not be able to have any pets at my home. Also, I have 2 cats of my own…who are slightly skiddish.
About: I have an 11 year old goldendoodle named Taffy who I have raised since she was a puppy. I have walked dogs and house sat for friends and family since I was young and will always take the opportunity to spend time with animals of all kinds! I recently graduated from UMD and I am taking a summer class to finish up my double degree. Otherwise my schedule should be fairly open and I should have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I can follow any directions needed for caring for your fur babies. I can go for long walks to provide exercise, play (of course), cuddle, reinforce tricks/training, administer oral medicine, etc.. Just ask and I will probably be willing to accommodate any requests! I always make sure that your pet has access to fresh water and feed according to instructions.

“Terri and Chuck are so caring and so thorough with their fur guests. They welcomed our pup Sienna with open arms, and followed all of our instructions for care. Terri genuinely loves animals and it shows in the care she gives them. We loved the many pictures and video updates during our trip. Thank you Terri!”
“Lucy was well taken care of at Renee's. I had peace of mind while I was away and Renee communicated when she needed advice about Lucy. I would recommend Renee for anyone needing a place their dog.”
“Jon and Mary took great care of our Faye. We haven't left our puppy with anyone before so we were very nervous. They put us at ease by talking to us for a while about their rover experience. They have two adorable, friendly, fun loving labs that played with our little Faye. Their family all pitched in to keep Faye happy and active. We will definitely be using Jon and Mary again. Highly recomend!”
“Our dog loves going to stay with Jolene and her family. They communicate in a timely way. Our dog always comes home happy. I trust Jolene and am so happy to have found her!”
“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!”
“Annette is the best! I actually hesitate to leave a review because I don't want all of her spaces to fill up! Your dog will be welcomed into the fold and Annette will ask you about - and then pay attention to - their needs. She has been fostering for so long, she has literally seen everything – and can deal with everything. Teddy had a great time, and I left with new insights into her behaviors. Annette is a gem.”
“5/5 Stars – Exceptional Care for Bella! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our sweet Bella during our trip. Dorian was great, responsive from the start, and he sent updates as soon as possible when I requested. Bella came home happy and relaxed. We definitely will book with him again in the future. If you're looking for someone who treats your dog like family, Dorian is your person, we highly recommend!”
“If you're at all apprehension about leaving your pets with a caregiver, message Michelle!!! This was our 1st experience with a stranger caring for our pets and we were extremely happy with Michelle and her family. She often sent photos and videos of our pets playing with her dogs and also her sweet little girls. They have a large fenced in back yard for the dogs to run and play. We would not hesitate to have Michelle care for our pets in the future. Thank you so much!!!”
“Karen was amazing with Jazzy! Our dog has significant separation anxiety, but Karen immediately understood her needs and knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable and secure. The farmland is a huge plus offering plenty of safe, private space for dogs to play and explore. Best of all, Karen and her family treated Jazzy like one of their own. We had complete peace of mind knowing our fur baby was so well cared for, and we're incredibly grateful to have found a sitter we trust. The ample pictures and videos were an added bonus! We'll definitely be back again and again!”
“Sandra is our favorite! Went away for Thanksgiving and luckily Sandra was available to sit my baby, Irma. Sandra sends many photos everyday and makes me feel like my Irma is having a great time! When I picked up Irma, she looked like she would have rather stayed! 100/100 Sandra is the best around!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She sent me daily pictures so I could see Nyx on walks, cuddling, or playing. I use Rover because I like the indivualized attention and updates, and Jennifer did great. She was flexible with drop off and pickup times, too!”
“Candace is amazing at giving updates of my baby and making sure he is comfortable. Being a last minute booking, Candace still took my baby in and she’s very reliable. I will continue booking with her.”

“They were very accommodating to a last minute request! The communication was fantastic and thorough. We got a lot of great pics. Overall it was a great experience and would definitely use them again in the future.”
“Robin is awesome to work with! Our pup loves spending weekends with her and her family. She always sends pics and notes of what they were up to during the day and lets us know if there is anything we need to be aware of with our pup.”
