“April and her family took great care of our dog Tulip while we were at a family reunion at Deep Creek Lake. They sent pictures and communicated quickly when we needed to. We felt confident that Tulip was well cared for and we will try to have Tulip stay with them again if we are up this way. They are just a really nice family.”
“Jessica took care of our good boy like he was her own! She was great at communicating and sending pictures and videos. You can feel good that your pup is in good hands!”

“My dogs were happy and content when we arrived to pick them up. Jessica sent us pictures and they seemed perfectly relaxed . She was able to fit us in for the last minute call and I was very grateful. We will definitely contact Jessica , the next time we head out of town .”

“Kaity was a lifesaver after our usual Rover pet sitter was unable to keep Suey for us while we were away. She was kind and welcoming to Suey at drop off & sent me photos and updates during her stay. I’d definitely recommend Kaity & wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future. Thanks again, Kaity!”

“We are extremely pleased with the care Hailey provided for my dog, Milo. She was attentive, and you could tell she genuinely cared about his well-being. Milo seemed happy and well-looked after when I picked him up. Hailey kept us updated throughout with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind. The place was clean, and Milo had plenty of space to play. I would highly recommend Hailey for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”

About: My name is Misty and I would love to help you care for your pets. I live in Maysville and will travel to surrounding areas. I grew up in a family that bred and trained Golden Retrievers and Chocolate Labrador Retrievers to duck hunt. I have also leash-broken hounds, German Shepherds, and Siberian Huskies. The leashes I use are gentle-leaders. I do not use any other form of leashes as I use the pack leader training method. I reward pets with positive reinforcement and do not punish animals. I’m a disabled veteran so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I love spending time with dogs and cats. I do crate training at my home and I have a 1 acre yard with a creek. Your fur babies will be happy and protected with me.
“Kristina and Mark were great. They were very accommodating with drop-off and pick-up schedules and always kept in touch with us, sending pictures. Our small mixed hound dog loves kids so she had a good time and enjoyed the extra attention from the girls. Next time we are in the area we'll definitely use them again.”

“Thea is an amazing pet sitter and person! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is completely cared for and comfortable. We’ve found our sitter and won’t hesitate to use her again and again!!”


About: I have expertly provided consistent and loving care for cats throughout the years, managing their feeding, playtime, and health needs. I've done so in pet hotels vet clinics and in homes for people who have needed it.
About: I was a professional pet photographer for many years, and I have worked at a luxury pet resort. I started accepting Rover bookings in June of 2025. I will be with your dogs during the day as well as overnight, but I will need to be able to leave during the day to meet ongoing commitments. I will travel out of my area (Deep Creek, Alpine Lake) for an additional fee. I will stay with your pets in your home, where they are most comfortable. If they are used to cuddling on the couch with you while you watch television, I will do that. If they are used to being outside a lot, I will take them out (weather permitting of course).
About: Animals have been a constant in my life and career for over a decade. I spent 5 years working in veterinary medicine, starting as a kennel attendant in a boarding facility and working my way up to a veterinary receptionist while continuing hands-on care with boarded pets. That experience gave me a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, and daily care routines. While still in vet med, and continuing after, I ran my own pet sitting and dog walking business for nearly 6 years. I cared for pets in their homes, built long-term relationships with clients, and managed everything from daily walks to extended stays. I stepped away due to a demanding work schedule, but caring for animals has always been where my heart is. I’m experienced with special needs pets, administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable), managing behavioral challenges, and following detailed care instructions. I’m comfortable with senior pets, high-energy breeds, shy or anxious animals, and multi-pet households. Currently, I work as a 911 dispatcher for the county, which has strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, and handle unexpected situations responsibly. Reliability, attention to detail, and safety are second nature to me. I’m excited to reconnect with what I’m most passionate about; providing dependable, knowledgeable, and compassionate care for your pets as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work 3–4 night shifts a week, which gives me several full days off dedicated entirely to pet care. On my workdays, I’m intentional about scheduling visits around my shifts so pets still receive consistent, reliable attention. Because I work nights, my daytime schedule is flexible. I take short rest breaks throughout the day, very much like your pets do lol, which allows me to stay energized while still being present and attentive during visits. I’m used to structuring my time carefully, and I prioritize reliability and routine so your pets feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s early morning drop-ins, mid-day visits, evening walks, or overnight care on my off days, I build my schedule around providing consistent, dependable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household preferences exactly as outlined. My goal is to maintain consistency so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I provide plenty of enrichment, affection, and supervision tailored to each animal’s personality, whether that’s high-energy playtime, structured walks, or calm companionship for more anxious or senior pets. I’m experienced with administering medications, monitoring for health or behavioral changes, and handling special needs with confidence and care. I also treat your home with respect. I keep things clean, secure, and organized, provide regular updates with photos, and communicate clearly so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities.

About: Started caring for pets since I was 10. Mostly dogs and cats along with some awesome rabbits. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to walk, feed, play, administer medicine, clean liter boxes and give good lovin' to their beloved pets ! Lots of experience staying with pets in their home (sometimes for several weeks at a time) or coming to their home several times days for care. Realized that I was born with a natural rapport with animals. Grateful for this ability and nurtured these skills all my life. I'm currently applying for full-time work, so I'll have plenty of time (flexible hours) to love-up on your dearest dogs with walks, play and treats. Of course, belly rubs are included! Haven't had my own pet in awhile, but lived with housemates who have wonderful animal spirits (dogs, cats and bunnies) to brighten their lives and mine. When I've lived with pets, always check they have plenty of clean water and food and, depending on how they are housed, make sure they are safe in their crates or curled up in their favorite spots before I leave. Always make sure that I know where list of emergency contacts and vet info is located.
About: I have had dogs for my whole life. I volunteered at an animal shelter and learned all about dog behaviors. This has helped me better understand them. I currently have a part time job with a very flexible schedule. I can easily work around it to fit your schedule better. Message me for more schedule information! At this time I am only able to care for pets in your home. I will ensure they have regular bathroom breaks, play time, and lots of cuddles!!
