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.”
“Marieliz was fantastic with our dog. We have a larger breed dog, and she was confident and able to handle him with no problem. She made us feel very comfortable while traveling, keeping us up-to-date with a daily summary and photos and videos of how he was doing and what they did throughout the day. She kept his routine, and feeding schedule the same way we have it at home. She gave him a great deal with love and he came back happy and healthy. We would definitely use her again.”

“Ellie was WONDERFUL. She was super accommodating, always came on time (even for the early morning visits), and made fantastic “Rover cards” with photos and notes about our kitties daily mischiefs and fun. She played with our kitty every time she visited and even brought a package that got delivered inside for us. Absolutely will be booking again next time I travel!”
“Rose took excellent care of our pets while away for 5 days. She checked in daily with pictures and traveled up our long driveway in not so great muddy conditions due to all the melting snow. Thank you Rose!”
“Justine was absolutely wonderful. My cat is very shy, and usually hides from Catsitters and other people she doesn’t know. She did not hide from Justine, which I see as a major good sign. Justine also made a game with my cat of hiding the treats I said to give her so my cat could find them, which helped keep my cat entertained. I would absolutely hire Justine to watch my cat again!”

About: I have deep experience caring for cats of all ages. I have prior background working as a veterinary intern, multiple years in a grooming and boarding facility as well as being owned by 4 cats of varying ages currently. I am proficient at nail trimming and grooming as well! I have also successfully worked with groups so help kitties recover from and survive FIP including my own beloved cat; Smalls. I have a relationship with Frederick Cat Vet. Animals are naturally drawn to me! I am extremely meticulous about caring for cats and ensuring that they have the same type of care and hygienic conditions that I would want for myself. I also have taken the pet CPR course!
“Shelby has been so thoughtful and so caring while taking care of my two cats. She is very communicative, which I love from a pet sitter, because I treat my cats like my children. She shared feedback about my cat’s behavior, appetite, and sent photos too. I will definitely be requesting her assistance with drop in visits in the future!”
“We had a great experience! She stopped by twice to let our dogs out while we were away and was reliable, communicative, and very caring with them. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Dominique does a great job. She communicates well during my travel and let's me know how my baby is doing. I've used her over three years and would recommend her to anyone .”
About: I am a dependable and experienced cat sitter serving the Frederick and Walkersville, Maryland area. I bring over 30 years of professional experience in training, leadership development, and organizational support, where reliability, attention to detail, and clear communication were essential. These same qualities define how I care for cats and respect my clients’ homes. My career involved extensive travel, which gave me a deep appreciation for how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets and home while you’re away. Having relied on friends and professional services to look after my own property, I understand the peace of mind cat owners need—and I take that responsibility seriously. I have lifelong experience with cats. Growing up with my three brothers, our home always included animals, with cats being a central part of our family. We often had up to three cats at a time, representing a variety of breeds. In fact, my family raised Persian cats for sale, which meant hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages—from young kittens to senior cats. This included feeding routines, grooming, litter care, and monitoring health and behavior. Alongside cats, I’ve also cared for dogs, a parakeet, a turtle, hamsters, and goldfish, giving me a well-rounded understanding of animal care and behavior. My background has taught me that cats thrive on consistency, calm environments, and attentive observation—especially when their owners are away. At 55 and newly retired, I’m active, energetic, and excited to spend time doing what I love. I live in the Walkersville area and maintain an active lifestyle, currently training for another triathlon. My schedule allows me to be flexible, attentive, and fully present for the cats I care for. My Cat Sitting Services Include: Personalized in-home cat care Feeding, litter box maintenance, and fresh water Playtime, companionship, and routine monitoring Medication administration (if required) Clear communication and updates while you’re away Respectful and reliable house care during visits I treat every cat as an individual and every home with care and respect. Whether you’re traveling for business or vacation, you can feel confident knowing your cat is in experienced, calm, and caring hands.
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).
“This was our third opportunity to have Sarah M. watch over (drop-by) our two cats while we were away -- this time for two weeks! As has been the case every time, we were extremely satisfied with her work, especially her proactive steps to keep us informed (notifications, texts, and photos). She goes the extra distance to make sure we are comfortable being away from our furries, and we definitely hope to continue with her services. Thank you, Sarah!”
“Connie was great! She was good with every instruction I gave, seemed to enjoy spending time with my two cats, and they did too :) I appreciated getting good notes and cute pictures from her while we were on our trip.”
“Per usual, Sara was wonderful and very communicative while dropping in on our 3 cats for a couple of days. We know the house and animals are always in great hands with her!”
“Ms. Maureen is the only person we trust to take care of our two cats in our home while we go out of town. Every time she is punctual, caring, kind, and goes above and beyond for our two babies. She is so thoughtful with everything she does. We can’t put into words how much we appreciate her. If you are looking to have great care for your pets, book with Ms. Maureen. You will be happy you did. ❤️”
“Hannah did such a wonderful job with our mini Aussie. He is very timid and anxious with strangers because he has been bounced from shelter to shelter before we adopted him. Benny warmed up to Hannah and allowed her to give him belly rubs!”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“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 have over 45 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages as well as many other types of animals that have honored me with living with me over the years (cats, horses, gecko, Madagascar hissing cockroach, parrots, flying squirrel, rabbits). My original dream was to become a vet so I have a background interning with veterinarian, working multiple years in a grooming and boarding facility and had my own very successful animal care and sitting business as a teenager. I have great nail trimming skills as well! Animals are naturally drawn to me and sense my love and respect for them. I work remotely so am pretty flexible with schedules. I also have taken the pet CPR course! I work remotely from home so am flexible in what I can offer. I feed my own pets multiple times a day and am able to monitor what is consumed. I also live in a beautiful community near parks for nice walks. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs who live next door who are always interested in playdates if desired. I work remotely so have flexibility in what I can offer clients. I do have a crate on premises if you do not have although I prefer (as do pets) for them to have their familiar one! There are friendly cats who live with me although I would likely gate off my kitchen / sunroom area where my office is so that I can supervise and ensure harmony with unknown pet if in my home.
“I needed a place to take my three little dogs during my open houses. I found Robin on Rover and am so happy I did! She and her two boys hosted my dogs so well. It was the best play date for them! They loved them like they were their own. I wish I had found Robin and her boys sooner!”

“Rebecca's has been wonderful with our Baby Girl. I have never left Baby Girl with anyone due to her high level of separation anxiety but we are in Maryland for my husband's 50th High School Reunion so we didn't have a choice. I'm so glad that I chose Rebecca because she has been amazing. Baby Girl has had a good time at her house and went with Rebecca willingly Friday (her first day in doggy day care) which I knew Baby Girl sensed that Rebecca loved dogs and that she was safe with her sitter. Thank you Rebecca for putting us at ease and knowing that our fur baby is in good hands! I would highly recommend Rebecca and if the opportunity arises to book with Rebecca again we definitely will!”

“Our puppy loves spending time with Ben and Alexa! Their farm is perfect for allowing her to run out energy and get used to a variety of animals - horses, chickens, etc. Honestly, we're jealous of the time she gets to spend there! Ben and Alexa clearly love her as much as we do, and treat her like family. They send lots of photos so I always know what she's up to. She comes home completely exhausted :) We'll absolutely continue to book stays with them and highly recommend them for anyone else looking for wonderful, caring sitters!”

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!
“Becky was easy going and quick to respond and sent plenty of photos during her walks. She is also good at asking questions to be sure the visit goes as desired. She’s added to my favorites list :)”
About: I am a reliable and caring pet and house sitter serving the Frederick and Walkersville, Maryland area. I bring over 30 years of professional experience in training, leadership development, and organizational support, where trust, responsibility, and attention to detail were essential to my success. These same qualities guide how I care for homes and pets. My career involved extensive travel, which gave me firsthand appreciation for how important it is to have a dependable person caring for your home and animals while you’re away. I’ve often relied on friends and professional services to look after my own property, so I understand the peace of mind pet owners are seeking—and I take that responsibility seriously. My wife and I, along with our two children, are longtime animal lovers. We currently care for a part-time “loaner dog” named Tobi, who stays with us while my mother-in-law travels. Growing up with my three brothers, our household was always full of pets, including dogs, a parakeet, a turtle, hamsters, goldfish, and Persian cats that my mother bred and raised. This lifelong exposure has made me comfortable caring for a wide range of animals and following specific routines and instructions. At 55 and newly retired, I’m active, energetic, and excited to dedicate time to passions I couldn’t fully explore while working full-time and raising a family. I live a very active lifestyle—currently training for another triathlon—and I enjoy staying engaged, dependable, and helpful in my community. As your pet and house sitter, I provide: Attentive, compassionate pet care tailored to your pet’s routine Reliable house sitting, including mail collection and light household oversight Clear communication and regular updates while you’re away Respect for your home, privacy, and detailed instructions I treat every home and pet as if they were my own. Whether you’re traveling for business or pleasure, you can feel confident knowing your pets and property are in experienced, caring, and trustworthy hands. At 55 and newly retired, I’m active, energetic, and excited to dedicate time to passions I couldn’t fully explore while working full-time and raising a family. I live a very active lifestyle—currently training for another triathlon—and I enjoy staying engaged, dependable, and helpful in my community. My schedule is very open with my wife still working (a teacher), and my kids both grown. I provide pet care with the same level of professionalism, responsibility, and attention to detail that I brought to my 30+ year career in training, leadership development, and organizational support. I am a reliable and caring pet and house sitter serving the Frederick and Walkersville, Maryland area, and I understand that caring for someone’s pet also means caring for their home and routines. When caring for pets—whether in my home or in a client’s home—I start by learning each pet’s individual needs, habits, and preferences. I closely follow all instructions related to feeding schedules, exercise, litter or potty routines, medication, and any special care requirements. I believe consistency is key to helping pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and care, maintaining routines and ensuring the environment remains calm, clean, and safe. I monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health and communicate proactively if anything seems out of the ordinary. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. If pets are cared for in my home, they are welcomed into a calm, structured environment with close supervision, appropriate activity, and plenty of attention. Safety, cleanliness, and comfort are always priorities. Above all, I care for every pet as if they were my own. Trust is at the core of what I do, and pet owners can rely on me to be attentive, communicative, and dependable ensuring their pets and homes are well cared for at all times.
“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.”
“Danielle is amazing!! She has been walking my two pups on a regular basis for a few months. She is always on time and so communicative in how my pups did on their walk. I can tell Danielle cares for them like they are her own. I highly recommend her!”
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.
About: My family and friends have entrusted me to take care of their pets many times these last few years. The last 3 summers I have been lucky enough to do long-term stays with my friend's 4 dogs and cat to help build my experience with pets. Additionally, my family has 2 Rhodesian Ridgebacks of our own, so I am no stranger to larger dogs! I am currently working part-time on the weekends so my week is normally pretty free. Since I am an incoming college student, I have some commitments throughout the summer, but have no problem talking about those with clients! I will treat your pets as if they were my own and make them as comfortable as possible while you are away. I know it can be a stressful time for them while your gone, so I hope to be a calming presence where they can relax and have fun!
“Tracy took excellent care of our dog! She very clearly loves animals and they love her back! Tracy provided great updates and photos throughout her time with our dog which made us feel at ease that she was in good hands!”
“We are so grateful to have found Shelby! It's such a relief to know that my pup is getting exercise and attention while I am at work all day. I highly recommend Shelby!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, as well as a few cats, for years in a more casual setting. I usually sit for friends, family friends, and neighbors, usually through check-ins, and only a few times with boarding in my own home. I have two dogs of my own, ages 5 and 9mo who were both raised from puppies, so I have basic puppy training and grooming skills. I also have experience with dogs who need regular medication or who have specialized/specific diets. I am open to caring for any pets except birds, special needs/sensitive reptiles, and insects. I am currently a student at Penn State and I am looking for summer job in my hometown. I would most likely be free at almost any time during the week and would be open to over night stays as well with prior notice. I would be open to set a meeting with you and your pet before house sitting or check-in dates to discuss schedules and specifics as well as to meet your pet. I am currently unable to sit at my own house. My contact info will be provided and I will be available for call at all points during my care for your pet.
“Dominique was a fantastic sitter and responded quickly to my request on short notice. My dog warmed up to her immediately so I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. My fur baby had the runs and she communicated often and was very understanding. I would definitely refer her and book Dominique again.”
“I could relax all day at work knowing my pup was going to get a visit full of love and a nice long walk! Copper is laid out snoring tonight- noted by both myself and my teen! Thank you crystal!”
“Nancy is fantastic. She takes my dog for a walk multiple times a week. She's very reliable and gives me feedback on my pet after each walk. She's on time and keeps my mind at ease to focus on work when I'm at work. Nancy and my dog really seem to enjoy their time together each day. I would definitely recommend Nancy to anyone needing a kind and responsible person to care for their pet.”
About: My experience and education ensures the safety of animals of varying temperament levels and backgrounds. I enjoy the process of building trust and confidence with animals through approved training methods/mental enrichment activities and using non verbal cues in a playful and meaningful way. Because I don't own any pets of my own I'm able to assist pet owners when they're away from home. I often accept requests up to 3 months ahead of time but, if possible, I will accept same day requests. Many clients value how I communicate and ask if I'm a trainer (I'm not certified yet) because I handle animals so well. You can expect detailed observational updates twice a day accompanied with photos and videos.

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.”
“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.”
“Marieliz was fantastic with our dog. We have a larger breed dog, and she was confident and able to handle him with no problem. She made us feel very comfortable while traveling, keeping us up-to-date with a daily summary and photos and videos of how he was doing and what they did throughout the day. She kept his routine, and feeding schedule the same way we have it at home. She gave him a great deal with love and he came back happy and healthy. We would definitely use her again.”
“Dorian really helped us out of a bind when our little boy, Taysom, needed coverage when our situation for having fiends watch him changed within a couple of days of us leaving on a week long trip. He and his daughter kept Taysom busy while we were away. He was quick to respond to inquiries and send pictures and a video to us. He also administer medication for two days. We even had a pre booking visit with him with short notice and Dorian was very accommodating. All in all we were pleased with the service he provided for our little guy, Taysom. 😊”
“We had a great experience with Nicole taking care of our pug, Memo, for about a week. She was super nice and easy to work with from the start. From the meet and greet, we knew Memo was going to love her. She kept us updated every day on how Memo was doing, and we really like the photos and videos she sent. It really made it a lot easier being away from him. You could tell right away that Memo was comfortable and happy with her and her husband. They treated him like their own and made sure he got plenty of attention and walks. We’d definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their dog.”
“Robin (and her kids!) were absolutely awesome! Our two dogs were both well cared for and happy when we picked them up. We totally plan on using them to watch our furry friends next vacation and many beyond! R. Allan Ferrell”
“My sweet girl, Pearl, can be wary of strangers upon first meeting them. But she took an instant liking to Dan and his pup. His large fenced yard provided the perfect environment for Pearl to freely roam and expend her energy, keeping her happy and content. The pictures and video that Dan sent me truly captured Pearl's joy and excitement. It is evident that she felt comfortable and at ease in his care. His thoughtful updates and the love he showed her mean the world to me. I am grateful to have found such a caring and responsible person like Dan to look after Pearl. His kindness and dedication have not gone unnoticed, and I have full confidence in leaving Pearl in his care in the future.”
“Linda is an amazing petsitter and I'll definitely be using her again for my Maggie. While I was away, she sent me multiple updates about how my girl was doing daily. When I went to pick her up, I could tell how much her entire family enjoyed having her at their house and how much Maggie enjoyed being with them. Having Maggie stay with Linda definitely allowed me to enjoy my time away more fully as I felt confident that she was in caring hands.”
“Highly recommend Kinsey! She did a great job watching my dog Cooper. She provided text updates with photos and is very responsive to text messages. Will use her services again!”
