Personalized care for your dog or cat - Oldtown

“Michelle was awesome - she spent so much time with Copper and kept me posted with lots of pictures I’d definitely contact again when I’m in the area”

PJ G.

“Thank you Faith for doing a great job with both my dogs! They’re not typically inside dogs (more like farm dogs), but she accommodated them and was flexible through the weekend. Photos or videos were sent daily. Thanks!”

“This was my first time leaving my 8 month Cockapoo Phoebe with a sitter. After reading reviews about Beth on line & then talking to her by phone, I felt confident my little friend would be in good hands - and she was. She had 1-2 other dogs to play with which helped socialize her & provide much needed play time. Beth is obviously very knowledgeable about dogs and, as a certified trainer, knows many simple but effective ways of handling dogs. I feel sure that Phoebe had excellent care and warm and loving attention while at Beth’s. I would definitely call on Beth again.”

“Yogi enjoyed his stay. I like that there are options. Dogs can stay in the house. But if they are more comfortable outside, she has a deck with access to a fenced in grass area. Good communication. No problems.”

Greg G.

“Great communication and took great care of our dog.”

Deborah H.

“I really like the fact that Lucy only watches one dog at a time. No cages or kennels were used, and our dog was allowed to be on the couch which is what she does at home. I would recommend Lucy”

Amie H.

“Amber was the perfect pet sitter when we couldn't travel with our dog Khyro during the holidays. My wife and I loved the daily updates and pictures/videos. It made us feel markedly better knowing he was enjoying his time away from us. Khyro definitely didn't make it easy on her, because he was prescribed an antibiotic and a topical cream for an open wound the day of dropoff! But Amber had no problem administering the drugs, and his wound was all healed when we got back. Khyro can't wait until the next time he spends time with Amber and her wonderful family.”

About: I’ve always grown up around animals and had countless pets throughout my life! I love love love big dogs, but also every other critter I meet! I’ve dealt with puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and picky pets. I’m not scared of messes or hold grudges against pets that aren’t the biggest fans of other people. My goal is just to make sure your pet is comfortable! I’m currently a full-time college student working a few hours each week at the college, so I’m busy most mornings but never for more than a couple hours at a time. I’m usually very free on weekends and can make myself more available during the week if need be. My biggest concern is how comfortable your pet is! So, I’m all for doing whatever they want to do! If your pet loves going on walks, car rides, and outside adventures I’d be more than happy to do so. On the other hand, I’ve dealt with some reactive and picky pets in the past and we still figure out how to have a good time without crossing any boundaries your pet might have. Since I’m in school right now, I am not able to house a dog for sitting. I don’t mind pets with strict diets, exercise routines, medications, or anything of the sort and will make sure they get the care they need.

About: I've had pets all my life cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, Bunnies, and taken car of horses. I love animals and am not afraid of their messes. During the summer I have plenty of time to take care of pets though during the school year certain times of day I won't be available due to classes. I've learned to come at pets with the caution they need. I'm very friendly and always want to be sweet to pets but I can be tough if the situation calls for it to not let animals walk all over me. I love animals and like taking the time for their needs.

About: Grew up with all types of animals dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, I am more than capable of taking care of your animals as long as needed. I am very free, I am home all the time, you will not have to worry about your animal, they will receive plenty of love or plenty of solidarity if they want that. I am a very loving and understanding pet watcher your animal will be very safe in my home, I am a firm believer in cuddling and playing with animals so they will be entertained

About: I've taken care off two dogs before inside my home and other persons home. I still do inside my home but only for small dogs. My one cat dont like big dogs I can do any days depending on my work schedule that I have. I need 2 week in advance just for that reason so I know what times and day that I need available I take care of feeding dogs and cats, cleaning litter box, and walking the dogs and playing with them and Bonding with them. I also took care of farm animals too before

“If you're ever looking for a place for your fur kids to stay while you go out of town, I highly recommend Laura. I have 2 neurotic cats; 1 has CH that does not like getting confined in crates/small place and the other is spicy/moody. The stay was short with a (somewhat) unusual request, but Laura took them all in stride and went the extra mile to look after Sam and Cloud. Definitely one of my best rover experience and would not hesitate to ask her again in the future.”

About: I’ve been in the general field of caretaking for about 6 to 7 years. I was a full time nanny to a family of 7 children and 3 dogs for a few years before I married, and before that, I had multiple families for whom I watched their little ones, including the family dog/dogs. I also did some exclusive pet sitting apart from my previously mentioned work experience. I managed both kids and pets at once. I’ve gotten to know a variety of dog breeds. Growing up, we always had dogs. We’ve had a labradoodle, a few small mixed breeds, and a bernedoodle. Our bernedoodle, Rocco, I trained myself. He is the gentlest dog I’ve ever met and so smart. I taught fun tricks but also some useful ones like how to ring bells to indicate he needed to potty. I have loved being around dogs and having them in my life. We don’t currently have a dog since my two kids are young, so we can’t afford our own pup right now, although we certainly will get one in the future. That’s why I’m so excited to be able to provide other people’s dogs a warm and welcoming home away from home where they will be loved on and feel at ease. I’m a full time stay at home mom, so I’m almost always home. Apart from grocery shopping, minor errands, church on Sundays, or the rare trip to families, we are home all the time. Dogs that stay with us will have pretty much constant companionship and attention. We will be available for drop offs everyday except most of Sunday. Sunday evenings will be open though. Dogs that love a family environment will thrive here. We are usually up for the day around 7:00 am. My son loves dogs and will happily have a full conversation with them. He has grown up around many dogs because my mom has dogs and is a seasoned rover sitter herself. My husband works in the evenings so dogs will probably stay up and hang out with me as we unwind. We have a fenced in backyard so I can sit on our deck and let the dogs run, play, and potty easily and frequently. We live on a very quiet and friendly Cul-de-sac in the mountains of West Virginia, near Winchester. Dogs that come here will have a peaceful stay and have a lot of fun!

“First time using a sitter that wasn't family. My cats are generally very skittish. I figured she'd never see either one. Turns out she got them cat whispering skills and she handled them both. Highly recommend and will use again if she wants to.”

Sharice g.

“Very communicative and professional! Our cats were happy to have her”

Isabelle K.

“Sarah is understanding and engaging with my kids. She asked questions if she wasn't sure about a situation which I appreciate very much. I would recommend her to take care of your pet as she takes care of mine.”

Mary Ann G.

“Great communication and service, highly recommend!”

Kristen B.

“Lauren does a great job. One of my cats seems to love her. The other one is standofish but will come around. We will definitely book her again!”

Lynn C.

“Bethany was absolutely wonderful! She sent us photos and kept us up to date on our Ollie. We will definitely use her again!”

Amanda H.

“Aly was so communicative and took extra care to interact and snuggle with our cats. We really appreciated her willingness to sit for us last minute and enjoyed our trip knowing she was updating us with pictures of her sleepovers with our girls and Pookie. She was able to administer insulin for our diabetic cat and ensure her dietary needs were met. We were so lucky to find her!”

About: I am a dependable and compassionate pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for dogs and other household pets. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to build trust while providing attentive, personalized care. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, cleaning up after pets, providing companionship, and maintaining consistent routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. I am proud of my commitment to treating every pet like family. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being so I can quickly notice any changes that may need attention. I communicate regularly with pet owners, provide updates and photos, and always strive to give them peace of mind while they’re away. I am patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether caring for energetic puppies, senior pets, or shy animals that need extra patience, I provide loving, responsible care that keeps pets happy, healthy, and safe. I work from home with generous breaks. While my schedule is 9-5, I wake early to go on walks in my neighborhood, and my work day includes 1.5 hours of breaks. After work is much like “before work”. A pet would work perfectly in this schedule I have a 3 story townhome and garage! I recently installed a fence! I will keep the pet entertained with fetch, and other stimulating games and puzzles

“Michelle was terrific! She went out of her way to put our shy dog at ease and make him feel comfortable. She kept in touch with pictures! Highly recommend.”

Betsy M.

“Lucy is fantastic and sooo patient. I was very late picking my guy up and she was so kind and forgiving. Book her with confidence!”

Erik K.

“Faith was an excellent sitter! Marlie enjoyed her stay playing with the other dogs and cat. Faith was very attentive and took pictures of Marlow the throughout the time. Highly highly recommend.”

BRANDIS O.

“Amber was fantastic, very responsive and helpful for our trip on the GAP trail! Highly recommend, will be a repeat customer. Thank you”

Valerie M.

“Lucy always does an amazing job with Molly. Her and Christian have really helped me with watching Molly as I prepare for a move, but I will still keep them as my go-to dog sitters for when I take a trip, even if they will live an hour away. The dog's excitement as I approach their house to drop her off with them tells me how well she's cared for while there.”
