“Payten was amazing. I will definitely be using her again. It was my baby's first time being with a sitter. He is very reserved and stubborn, but he really warmed up and trusted her. That right there shows me that she is a person to be trusted. She kept me updated regularly, even sending pictures. Thank you Payten!”
“Donna and Scott are AMAZING. We needed a last minute sitter and they welcomed our pup with open arms. Our dog is very nervous and barked when he arrived, but Donna and Scott knew exactly what to do to make him feel comfortable and at home. They sent multiple pictures of our dog at their house, and I had no doubt he was in the best hands. Thank you again for your flexibility, patience, and love for our dog!”
“Jesse was fantastic! She watched Canyon over Christmas and sent the most pictures I’ve ever gotten. It was very easy and canyon loved playing with the other dogs she was sitting.”
“First time using Rover. We boarded our 4 dogs with Briana for 3 nights. She sent updates and photos and we could see that they were comfortable and content. So glad we picked Briana. Yes, 5 stars!”
“I had a great experience with Lejune & Michael G. I used them as a boarder and they keep me updated on his status several times daily, making me feel secure with his care. Thank You Both”
About: I have had the honor of having dogs my entire life. Recently, helped my daughter potty training her rescue puppies. They have become the protectors of my grandchildren. As an Empty Nester, I enjoy the simple things in life and would love to offer my services for walks during the early mornings and evenings. Additionally, if you need overnight care, I can provide that service in your home upon request. Currently, I do not have pets in my home, as I do not have a fenced yard that would allow them to safely play and enjoy outdoor activities.
“Shaynna was awesome. She was willing to take Kelce on a last minute basis. She was also able to tell when Kelce was stressed and was able to give her the attention she needed. She gave updates and sent a picture. I will definitely book with Shaynna again when the time comes about.”
“Rocky was terrific watching our sweet Zoe! Taking her on walks, the beach and even inviting her to watch a playoff football game with him (she is an Eagles fan). We could tell by the pictures and video he shared that we were not missed. We truly appreciate his kindness and care. He is Highly Recommended! From Zoe: “Thank you, Rocky, for taking such good care of me!” Steve & Teena.”
“Kelsie is great! Welcomed my dog into her home and treated her like family. Communication was quick and easy and she was more than willing to give me updates/pics. I will 100% use her again :)”
About: I grew up in a dog-loving home—there was never a time we didn’t have a furry friend in the family. Since my very first pet, I’ve enjoyed caring for animals. Now as an adult, I have a dog and a cat of my own. My pup is a high-energy guy that I’ve raised since he was a puppy. We went through all the training together—lots of patience, consistency, and treats!—and now he’s a well-behaved, happy companion who keeps me on my toes. My cat is curious and full of personality, always finding new spots to nap and new ways to charm everyone. Fun Facts Just About Me: I moved to Hagerstown with my husband, 2 dogs and cat a few years ago. My husband and I recently got married in May 2026. I play adult softball and kickball. I love to be outside whether it's walking the dogs, attempting to garden or being on the water. Since I work from home, I’m lucky to spend lots of quality time with my pets throughout the day, and I’d love to extend that care and attention to your furry family members too. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a feeding routine, or just offering companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm, secure environment with a fully fenced yard that offers plenty of room for pets to run and play safely. We also have sidewalks throughout the neighborhood perfect for walks, a puppy play pen for supervised fun, and plenty of space to crate pets comfortably if needed. All areas are pet-proofed to prevent accidents, and I carefully manage food, toys, and any medications. When visiting a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure doors and gates are secure, hazardous items are out of reach, and I maintain open communication with owners about any special needs or behaviors. Building trust with pets and their families is important to me, so I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs.
“Our 1.5yr old puppy, Birdie, was in the very best hands with Melissa during a recent boarding! Melissa is thorough in her intake, noting Birdie's food allergies and current schedule, and is warm and gentle in helping pups acclimate to a new environment. Melissa maintained Birdie's schedule, giving her plenty of outdoor and play time, and administered Birdie's medication, giving us peace of mind to focus on family. We enjoyed the handful of photos Melissa sent along the way and always appreciate her responsive communication. Melissa is deeply professional and the most thorough and warm caretaker and our expectations are always surpassed when Birdie is with Melissa!”
“We all love Catherine and her family as pet sitters for Harry! Catherine sends us updates with pictures so we can see that he’s happy and feels right at home!! Harry is always happy to see his “other family” and go on new adventures with them!”
“Diana takes great care of our girl, Tricksey! She sends us pictures of her and updates every day of how she's doing. When we drop Tricksey off with Diana, we know she will be loved and well taken care of.”
About: **please note I have a day job that takes me away from my house M-F from 5:30am until 4:15pm…all boarded pets will be let out to potty immediately upon returning home ** I have been taken care of dogs for over 15 years. My first dog 2 when I adopted him and I cared for him until he crossed over the rainbow bridge when he passed at 10yrs old. I also raised two puppies from 8 weeks until they crossed over as well. I work full time away from home Monday thru Friday, so your pet would be alone for about 8hrs week days. I will make sure they are let out before I leave and let out again immediately once I return home. I am able to walk dogs / check in on family pets after 4:30pm on week days. I have a deck and a 6ft tall fenced in yard. I do not have small children in my home. I also do not have any other pets that may not get along with another dog. I will always care for your pet as if it were my own.
“Danny was great. Kept me informed and sent pics of Finn. This was the first time I left Finn for such a long time, but I think I missed him more than he missed me. I will use Danny in the future to take care of Finn.”

About: I grew up on a farm and have lots of experience with small and large animals. I have 4 years of veterinary experience- from kennel work, reception, and vet assistant. I love animals and being able to care for them! I currently work three 12 hour shifts from 2pm-2am. My schedule is different every week. I have 4 days off and I would love to spend those to help take care of other peoples animals! I would prefer coming to your house and caring for them but would not mind bringing them to my house.

“Jenna takes great care after my cat everytime she drops in. My cat is very shy towards everyone, and she managed to become best friends with him! I would recommend Jenna to anyone needing a pet sitter!”
About: I've cared for not only my own pets but I've been pet sitting for friends, family and neighbors since I was about 12yrs old. I currently care for my own dogs, fish, and several reptiles. I know what I'm doing and if you choose to book with me, rest assured your pets are in great, caring and knowledgeable hands. I currently work full time as a dog trainer, and part time as a pet caretaker for a few friends. I have a fairly flexible schedule, and would be happy to do drop ins or take your fur babies out for a walk when needed. My days where I have full availability are Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. I ask plenty of questions about the animals ahead of time, if any meds need administered, any routines to stick to, ect. I don't ever wanna put stress on a pet or throw off any routines. I've worked with just about every dog breed imaginable, and am always up for a challenge.
About: Hi! My name is Kat, but I get it if that’s a dirty word in your house. I’ve been lucky to grow up with dogs of all levels; Huskies, Mastiffs, Pugs, etc. I started watching friends, family, and neighbors pets in 2019 and in 2021 I rescued my beautiful Cane Corso! I love all animals and can be trusted to treat your fur-baby with the upmost care and attention. I’m very active so I’m happy to play/hike/walk all day, I’ve even roller-skated with a pup. As I mentioned, I have a rescued giant breed. With her being a tougher rescue she has taught me how to handle almost any situation. She is reactive on walks so I’ve done training to continue to get her exercise with as much ease as possible. That being said, I can handle most dogs at all levels, no matter the size. Currently, I work 3 evenings a week with open daytime availability. I can drop in or take your pup for a walk anytime during the day and most evenings. I exercise often and go on lots of walks through the day, so if you have a high energy dog it’s no challenge for me. I wait a bit between exercise and feeding but I will prepare the food exactly how you and your pup prefer. I’m comfortable with crating and have done crate training.
About: In my 18 years of caring for my "fur children", 4 of them have been done professionally during summer, winter, and spring breaks of my college life. I have cared for my neighbors dogs, family and friends dogs, and have even booked some Pups from the previous "dogvacay". I absolutely love dogs and other animals and treat them all as family. I am very observant when it comes to my doggos. I make sure to conduct full body checks to make sure there are no ticks or unusual lumps or defects and the pup gets a great massage while I am at it. As dogs strive to be our best friends, I too strive to make sure I become their best friend too! Thank you

I am experienced in walking, cleaning, feeding, and loving them on a daily basis. I have two dogs of my own and I absolutely love them! I am used to big breeds, but I am comfortable with any type of dog. I'm a very friendly, patient, and easy going individual with a passion for life and love, and of course... pets.

“Jackpot was so happy to play with other ACDs! Charlie did a fantastic job at wearing her out. Once I picked her up, she didn’t make a peep for about three hours! Charlie had lots of toys, dog beds, an automatic water bowl, for a hot summer day. I knew Jackpot was in great hands!”
“I would highly recommend Lejune for your pet sitting needs. She communicates well, sends lots of pictures and videos, and from the first interaction, I could tell that Bella would be in good hands. I will be continuing services with her indefinitely.”
“Jesse helped us out with a very last minute request to watch our dog for the day and we’re so glad we found her! Our dog had a great time at doggie day care with Jesse and her family. They provided her with lots of exercise and play, as well as lots of love. I showed up to one happy dog at the end of the day. Jesse is a good communicator and provided updates and pics from the day. We would recommend Jesse for any dog sitting needs!”

About: I am currently doing Rover part-time, I’m also working 2 other part-time jobs, however, for one of them I get to choose my own schedule.

I am no longer able to do house sitting because I now have a baby to take care of, but if they are good with kids and cats, your pet is more than welcome to come stay with us!

Your pets are treated as my own when they are here, we take long walks around my apartment complex, I have treats for both cats and dogs, and many toys! Let me know if your pet has any allergies or dietary restrictions so they can be as healthy and happy as possible

“First off, Nadia is the sweetest! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and by speaking with her you learn she has our dog’s best interest at heart. We wanted daycare on days we both worked overnight and Nadia is very flexible. This was Daisy first ever day/time away from us and we woke up to so many updates and pictures….not sure how we got so lucky.”
About: I’ve had years of experience caring for my own dogs and cats of all ages and sizes.

I also have experience giving medications, including injections, and always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’m currently working from home so my daily schedule is very flexible. I may need to take calls and meetings during random times of the day, but this does not effect my work office environment or pet needs.

I can provide neighborhood walks multiple times a day. I own two dogs and two cats. My dogs are experienced in meeting and sharing a space with other animals.

About: I've had pets (cats, dogs and bunnies) for as long as I can remember. (40 + years) I have taken care of peoples animals many times throughout my life. I'm known for being an animal lover and have been told that I have a way with them. Even when other people's pets have been afraid of other people their pets have felt comfortable with me. I work from home, and am there most of the time. Our little toy poodle that we've had for 12 years just passed away and we slept with her, held her as we were doing school/ work and took her everywhere with us. So I'm very happy and comfortable having fur babies by my side throughout the day and being with me whatever I am doing. We have a five unfenced acre farm with a horse and a sheep. We don't live on a main road. I'm fine with your pets being out of a crate.
About: Experienced, reliable sitter with multiple repeat clients. I prioritize safety, structure, and lots of love. Animals have always been a part of my life whether it’s caring for my own pets or helping friends and family with theirs. I bring a calm, nurturing energy that pets respond to naturally, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, reliability, and the extra love I give whether it’s sticking to a pet’s specific routine, sending thoughtful updates, or taking time to build trust with shy or anxious pets. I understand how important it is to feel confident your pet is in good hands, and I go out of my way to make sure both you and your pet feel completely at ease. I work full-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive and consistent care throughout the day. My mornings start with taking my three children to daycare and school, after which I return home to begin my desk job. This setup allows me to check in on pets regularly, provide companionship, and stick to feeding, walking, or playtime schedules with ease. In the evenings, I do take my children to sports practices during the week, and when appropriate, I’m happy to bring pets along for a change of scenery and extra attention. Overall, my routine is structured yet flexible, and I’m committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my top priority is creating a safe, calm, and loving environment that meets your pet’s needs and routine. In my home, pets are treated like family. They’ll have a cozy, clean space, plenty of attention, and time for play, rest, and outdoor breaks as needed. I keep a consistent routine and ensure they feel comfortable, especially if they’re away from their usual environment.

I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience, comfort, and attention.

I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through reliability, communication, and compassionate care. I love getting to know each pet’s individual needs, favorite activities, and little quirks. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering extra TLC to anxious pets, or making sure your furry friend gets plenty of cuddles and playtime, I always go the extra mile!! My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and spoiled while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands! As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner, caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine!

In My Home: When caring for pets in my home, I strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions provided by their owners! Pets in my care receive plenty of attention, affection, enrichment, and supervision. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, or simply relax, I make sure they feel right at home and are treated like part of the family!

I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications (if needed), walks, playtime, and household routines to help pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their furry family members are happy and well cared for. My goal is always to ensure pets feel loved, safe, and cared for in the comfort of their own home!!

I am experienced in walking, cleaning, feeding, and loving them on a daily basis. I have two dogs of my own and I absolutely love them! I am used to big breeds, but I am comfortable with any type of dog. I'm a very friendly, patient, and easy going individual with a passion for life and love, and of course... pets. I enjoy brisk hikes, walks, and runs of any sort, as is part of my daily regimen with my two dogs. If your dog needs a run, walk, cleaning, feeding, or love, please don't hesitate to ask for my help! Thanks so much for choosing me to care for your pup! I work from home as a game developer, so I'm very flexible and can make time to fit in care for your pets. I take daily hikes and runs in the morning or whenever I can. I live in a slow road, and a field for my dog to run in. I would leash up any and all pets anytime they are outside.

“Jesse was fantastic! She watched Canyon over Christmas and sent the most pictures I’ve ever gotten. It was very easy and canyon loved playing with the other dogs she was sitting.”
“First time using Rover. We boarded our 4 dogs with Briana for 3 nights. She sent updates and photos and we could see that they were comfortable and content. So glad we picked Briana. Yes, 5 stars!”
About: I have had the honor of having dogs my entire life. Recently, helped my daughter potty training her rescue puppies. They have become the protectors of my grandchildren. As an Empty Nester, I enjoy the simple things in life and would love to offer my services for walks during the early mornings and evenings. Additionally, if you need overnight care, I can provide that service in your home upon request. Currently, I do not have pets in my home, as I do not have a fenced yard that would allow them to safely play and enjoy outdoor activities.
“Shaynna was awesome. She was willing to take Kelce on a last minute basis. She was also able to tell when Kelce was stressed and was able to give her the attention she needed. She gave updates and sent a picture. I will definitely book with Shaynna again when the time comes about.”
“Rocky was terrific watching our sweet Zoe! Taking her on walks, the beach and even inviting her to watch a playoff football game with him (she is an Eagles fan). We could tell by the pictures and video he shared that we were not missed. We truly appreciate his kindness and care. He is Highly Recommended! From Zoe: “Thank you, Rocky, for taking such good care of me!” Steve & Teena.”
“Kelsie is great! Welcomed my dog into her home and treated her like family. Communication was quick and easy and she was more than willing to give me updates/pics. I will 100% use her again :)”
About: I grew up in a dog-loving home—there was never a time we didn’t have a furry friend in the family. Since my very first pet, I’ve enjoyed caring for animals. Now as an adult, I have a dog and a cat of my own. My pup is a high-energy guy that I’ve raised since he was a puppy. We went through all the training together—lots of patience, consistency, and treats!—and now he’s a well-behaved, happy companion who keeps me on my toes. My cat is curious and full of personality, always finding new spots to nap and new ways to charm everyone. Fun Facts Just About Me: I moved to Hagerstown with my husband, 2 dogs and cat a few years ago. My husband and I recently got married in May 2026. I play adult softball and kickball. I love to be outside whether it's walking the dogs, attempting to garden or being on the water. Since I work from home, I’m lucky to spend lots of quality time with my pets throughout the day, and I’d love to extend that care and attention to your furry family members too. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a feeding routine, or just offering companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm, secure environment with a fully fenced yard that offers plenty of room for pets to run and play safely. We also have sidewalks throughout the neighborhood perfect for walks, a puppy play pen for supervised fun, and plenty of space to crate pets comfortably if needed. All areas are pet-proofed to prevent accidents, and I carefully manage food, toys, and any medications. When visiting a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure doors and gates are secure, hazardous items are out of reach, and I maintain open communication with owners about any special needs or behaviors. Building trust with pets and their families is important to me, so I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs.
“Our 1.5yr old puppy, Birdie, was in the very best hands with Melissa during a recent boarding! Melissa is thorough in her intake, noting Birdie's food allergies and current schedule, and is warm and gentle in helping pups acclimate to a new environment. Melissa maintained Birdie's schedule, giving her plenty of outdoor and play time, and administered Birdie's medication, giving us peace of mind to focus on family. We enjoyed the handful of photos Melissa sent along the way and always appreciate her responsive communication. Melissa is deeply professional and the most thorough and warm caretaker and our expectations are always surpassed when Birdie is with Melissa!”
“Diana takes great care of our girl, Tricksey! She sends us pictures of her and updates every day of how she's doing. When we drop Tricksey off with Diana, we know she will be loved and well taken care of.”
About: **please note I have a day job that takes me away from my house M-F from 5:30am until 4:15pm…all boarded pets will be let out to potty immediately upon returning home ** I have been taken care of dogs for over 15 years. My first dog 2 when I adopted him and I cared for him until he crossed over the rainbow bridge when he passed at 10yrs old. I also raised two puppies from 8 weeks until they crossed over as well. I work full time away from home Monday thru Friday, so your pet would be alone for about 8hrs week days.

I have a deck and a 6ft tall fenced in yard. I do not have small children in my home. I also do not have any other pets that may not get along with another dog. I will always care for your pet as if it were my own.
“Danny was great. Kept me informed and sent pics of Finn. This was the first time I left Finn for such a long time, but I think I missed him more than he missed me. I will use Danny in the future to take care of Finn.”

“Sastuki was excellent with our two dogs! She handled our very anxious older dog incredibly well and was very patient with our younger dog who is still full of puppy energy. She gave us many regular updates and pictures throughout the stay. Overall, she was an excellent sitter and we would definitely use her again!”
“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”
