“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.”
“Huck had such a great time! Communication was great and we loved the picture updates. Definitely felt at ease having our boy with Sarah. Already looking at our calendar for his next stay with her!”
“Diana always takes the greatest care of our daughter’s doggie Potato. She adjusted our dates to add another day at last minute due to an oversight on our end, which made our first cruise experience a great time for us all and that’s priceless. We are blessed to have her.”
“Charlie is the best sitter I have encountered on Rover. The set-up he has for the dogs allow great exercise, monitored socialization and tons of love. I have never had a bad experience with him and will continue to rebook with him for his services. He is extremely flexible and communicative throughout the entire stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Ellen is terrific. Her beautiful spacious farm provides a great change for dogs like mine who are inside an urban house. She is kind, thoughtful, and flexible.. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Emily was great and handled our 100 pound Doberman effortlessly. I never felt so comfortable going out of town. Our Doberman Zeus is cautious of new people and immediately loved Emily. She took him on long walks everyday and sent pictures. We will definitely be boarding him again with Emily.”
“Kelise was amazing with Trooper. He is very skittish so we were nervous about how he would adjust. She was great with him and he appeared to be comfortable, so much so that he wasn't ready to come back home yet. Lol She was communicative and sent lots of pictures. We look forward to using her again in the future! 10/10!”
“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”
“Melissa and her family were such a great place for Harper. She was able to spend time outside and off leash, as well as cozy up to the boys on the sofa - all of her favorite things.”
“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.”
“Donna and Scott are simply the best! They spoiled our Lexi girl and treated her like their own. Donna kept me updated with so many great pics of Lexi and what she was doing. I will not”
“Heather and her family are the absolute best! We feel totally comfortable when Brady is in her care and can enjoy our vacation to the fullest. She also sends the cutest pics. :) Thank you so much Heather!”
“Ms.Rosa and her family are excellent sitters!! They welcomed and cared for our dog as if he was a permanent part of their family. We will definitely use them again when we go away. 😊”
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.
“We booked her at the last minute and she was very flexible and helpful! She and her family took really good care of our pup. We loved the photos that she sent us of our dog playing.”
“Julianne is great. Her and her husband were very caring and accommodating. She sent pictures of our pups multiple times which alleviated the stress of leaving them. Would definitely have her watch our dogs again.”

“Amy was so helpful! She was professional and went above and beyond for us and our kitties. We needed some special help with watering plant seeds while we were away, and she gladly accommodated our needs! She sent lots of pictures and did everything we asked of her. She also responded to communication quickly. We definitely recommend Amy!”
“Amanda was communicative, polite, and professional. She let me know about a concern with my pet immediately and provided pictures to help figure out the problem right away.”
About: I have been providing consistent cat care for my Tabby Cat for 10 years! I understand that cats have an even wider range of moods and unique personalities than their canine counterparts. Their behavior can be a little trickier to read, but this doesn't stop me from providing felines with optimal care. In fact, understanding that cats and their needs can be different from dogs has taught me the importance of evaluating cat behavior and adjusting my caregiving approach accordingly.
“Jasmine has been wonderful. She does all the things that a Rover sitter is supposed to do. She loves my dog and two cats. She takes cute pics of them. She's on time. She's reliable. She's trustworthy.”
“Ally did such a great job taking care of our cat. She shared so many pics and videos of Kismet, so we knew she was always in great hands. We will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Logan was absolutely fantastic! She took wonderful care of our cats, Blue and Noa, while we were away. Communication was excellent, and his visit notes were detailed and reassuring. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely book Logan again and highly recommend here to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much, Logan!”
“Danielle took excellent care of our little kitten Penny. We were nervous about leaving her alone, but Danielle eased our fears with constant communication, lots of photos, and flexibility. Penny was a little sick the day we left, so we were hoping to add another drop in visit and Danielle worked overtime to accommodate and make sure Penny was OK. Also, Penny can be a little skittish, but was so friendly and warmed up to Danielle instantly, she must be a good just of character! You’ll have to plan your vacations around mine, because we will definitely be using Danielle again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments since I was around 12 years old. Working in a school setting has also strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to handle different personalities, skills I bring into caring for every pet. I work for CASD, so my schedule is very consistent during the school year, with availability after 3:45 PM on weekdays and open weekends. During the summer, I have full availability, which means I can provide more flexible scheduling, extended stays, and extra attention for your pets throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always supervise interactions and can separate pets if needed. I’m comfortable with crating if that’s part of your pet’s routine, and I’ll follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions closely to keep everything consistent and stress-free.
“Tammi is lovely she took great care of Callie during her visits, filled out the report card and left purposefully feedback and photos too! 10/10. I would not hesitate to rebook when needed. Thanks again Tammi for all your care and being you!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of our furry kids. She sent photos of play time with one and a check in with the other (he hides). Will certainly book again as she is right around the corner.”
“Courtlyn did an outstanding job. She had a meet and greet with our dog before the actual date. When taking care of Maverick she was always punctual. She sent pictures and comments so we could see that he was being walked and fed. I would certainly use Courtlyn again. I highly recommend her to care for your pet.”
“Caylene came every day as scheduled & took her time trying to find my shy kitties!! Was even able to send a couple pictures. It was a big relief to know we had her to rely on & didn’t have to worry while we were away.”
“Abby was fantastic! I had not used Rover before so I was a little nervous. From beginning to end Abby was extremely professional and great with Ella! I loved getting the texts when she got to the house and left, the pictures made our day! I highly recommend Abby!”

“My dog loves to stay at Danny's house. This has been such a help since my doggy day care closed. Keeps me informed and sends pictures. I'd recommend him as an excellent care giver.”
“Cheryl made me feel at ease about leaving my very anxious baby. Her system to introducing the dogs really put my mind at ease, and she sent me pictures while we were out to let me know my pup was okay. I would recommend her. Thank you Cheryl!”
“We have an older dog who has anxiety being left alone so I’ve been looking for a doggy day care type of care for her when I can’t be home. The Rover app was recommended to us and we found Diana online who was highly rated. Wonderful experience and will book again. Thank you.”
“Lejune provided soooo many pictures and updates, she made me feel like I was there every moment. Fiona haf a blast and was ready for bedtime by the time we came to pick her up. Great service and will definitely come back when I’m in the area again.”
“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!”
About: I've been taking care of my own animals my whole life. Neighbors, friends, and family started hiring me for pet care when I was still in high school. I love the stark difference in pet personalities and learning how each of them likes to be cared for. Examples of my past & present clientele: - A family with 7 chihuahuas of varying ages and levels of crazy - A brand new hyperactive Bernedoodle puppy whom I still care for regularly (she's 4 now!) - A sweet lab who liked long, slow walks and bananas - A moody cat who could not care less about me (I have slowly earned the blessing of giving head pats to them now) - A tortoise who inspires me to slow down and eat more greens *my home is a safe space for people and pets from all walks of life* I am available for early morning or evening walks and drop-ins during the week. I am available on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday unless I have a family or social event. However, I am always open to working around my schedule and offering as much flexibility as I can - just shoot me a message! We have a large back porch and yard with a fenced area for sniffing around. If your pet requires extra exercise, we have a quiet neighborhood to walk around in. We have a dog bed in almost every room, space for you to bring a crate, or an area that can be closed off overnight if necessary or requested. There are few places in the house that the dogs don't have access to out of an abundance of safety. Otherwise, they are welcome to make themselves at home! If I care for an animal in your home, I will let you and your pet take the lead!
“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!”
“I left my French Bulldog Bonnie with Juliane for the first time and we had a fantastic experience. Bonnie seemed to have a great time playing with her dog. Juliane was a great communicator giving us updates, and I felt like Bonnie was getting safely looked after. I would highly recommend Juliane for daycare!”

About: Although we are new to the area, we are definitely not new to caring for dogs. We recently purchased the well-known dog kennel in Smithsburg and are in the process of restoring it. Parts of the kennel are already fully functional, and we’re excited to begin welcoming dogs while we continue improving the property. It’s a place many people in the community already know, and we feel lucky to be able to carry on its history. Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with them and honestly can’t remember a time when I didn’t love being around them. That same love has followed me into adulthood. Over the years I’ve naturally become the neighborhood go-to pet sitter. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me with their pets for years, and I always care for them the same way I care for my own dogs — with patience, attention, and lots of affection. One of the things I’m most proud of is the therapy work I did with my dog. I trained and certified her as a therapy dog, and for 10 years we volunteered together in hospitals and nursing homes. That experience actually inspired my career path, and I went on to become a certified occupational therapist. My sweet therapy dog has since passed away after a long and wonderful life. She was incredibly special to me. I’m now starting that journey again with my new puppy, Merango, and hope to continue therapy work in the future. Right now I’m taking some time away from my occupational therapy work to focus on renovating and restarting the kennel. It’s something I’ve always dreamed about doing, and I’m excited to bring new life to a place that so many people in the community already know. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with medical needs, including giving medications like insulin injections. Our property has large outdoor fenced runs that give dogs plenty of space to move around and enjoy the fresh air in a quiet farm setting. injections. I’m currently focused on renovating and restoring the kennel property, which allows me to be home most of the day and provide consistent supervision and care for the dogs staying with us. We are early risers in our home and typically start the day around 7 AM with potty breaks and breakfast. Mornings are usually spent outside enjoying the property — going on walks around our 20-acre farm or spending time in the fenced runs while I do morning chores. Around lunchtime everyone, animals included, usually settles in for a quiet rest period. I check that everyone has fresh water and food if needed before nap time. In the mid-afternoon we head back outside for more activity. Depending on the dog, this may include running in the fenced fields, exploring the property on a guided walk, or simply relaxing in the fresh air. Dinner is around 6 PM, followed by a calm evening inside. We finish the day with a final potty break and check-in before bedtime around 9 PM. My goal is to give dogs a peaceful farm stay with plenty of space to move, fresh air, and a consistent routine so they feel comfortable and relaxed while they’re away from home I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. When I first started using Rover for my own dogs, I remember feeling nervous too. I always appreciated sitters who kept me updated, so I make a point to do the same. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can see how your dog is doing and feel confident they’re happy and well cared for. On our property, dogs have access to spacious individual indoor/outdoor kennel runs where they can relax comfortably. We also have several large fenced areas where dogs can safely run, play, and explore. Safety is always my top priority, and dogs are supervised during outdoor time to make sure everyone stays happy and secure

“Ashley was incredible with my dog and super flexible. We unfortunately dealt with flight delays/cancelations and it was a relief knowing someone was there and willing to not only adapt to changes but genuinely cared about our dogs wellbeing. She sent me photos everyday and regularly corresponded with me which made me feel way more comfortable. 10/10 definitely recommend and will use again in the future.”

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats, puppies and kittens for many years. I have raised my own dog from early puppyhood to mature adulthood and her social but controlled behavior and level of training quickly caught the eye of other dog owners with young dogs. I had spent years researching dog and cat behavior, dog training, and everything related to dog breed history and care. This knowledge, along with my passion for animals, allowed me to offer services like dog training, walking, sitting, and drop-in visits with confidence and excitement even as a young teenager. This confidence and excitement along with my knowledge has only grown since then. I have experience with large breeds like Dobermans and Great Danes as well as smaller breeds like Cavaliers. Energetic breeds like Labradors and high-drive breeds like Coonhounds. When I provide you my services, its not just taking care of you and your pet(s) needs, its a reassuring peace of mind. It's a genuine relationship built on trust. Its a pleasant interaction between you and I and a lavish experience for your pet. It's knowing that I am not only making your pet's day but he/she is making mine as well. That's the difference between simply getting a job done and ensuring the care that's provided is at the next level. The level I'd want for my own sweet pets. I am currently in a season of life that allows me to be flexible and able to go the extra mile in providing the best service around! I just graduated high school and am taking a gap year. Even though I am working another job as well, now is a good opportunity to get involved in caring for your pet's various needs. I am a quick learner and am able to follow your instructions for how you prefer your pet to be cared for in your home. I can crate a dog if needed. I am able to fill your 30 minute time slot for drop-in visits with cuddles, playtime indoor and outdoor (whichever is preferred) and I understand that exercising your dog mentally is just as important as physically so I enjoy incorporating mentally stimulating factors into my visits. Training, finding treats, playing games etc.
“Amanda showed up 5 minutes early which I really appreciated. She was personal yet professional. Zoey can be a challenge to walk because of her puppiness, but she came back exercised and ready to nap. I would definitely recommend Amanda!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years, starting in middle school and continuing through college and grad school. I have experience with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and caring for both dogs and cats. While in school, I regularly pet sat for families in Pennsylvania and built lasting relationships through reliable, attentive care. I’ve worked with pets of all ages and sizes—including dogs with health issues who require medication, special routines, or extra attention. What sets me apart is my lifelong connection to animals. I grew up in a home with pets throughout my childhood—including 4 dogs (labs and pointers), 6 cats, and 10 bunnies—so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love making animals feel safe, happy, and cared for. I recently started a full-time role, but the great news is I only work three days a week! That means I still have plenty of availability during weekdays and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting. I'm happy to work with your schedule and provide consistent care for your pets while you're away or at work. Feel free to reach out with any questions or requests—I’d love to help! I take safety and trust seriously and always aim to make both pets and their owners feel at ease. I care for pets in their own home to help maintain their routine and comfort, which I know is especially important for animals who may get anxious in unfamiliar environments. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it's feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, or playtime preferences—and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy while you're away. I treat every pet like my own and every home with the utmost respect, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. You can feel confident that your furry friend is in caring, trustworthy hands.

I am attentive to their needs, from feeding and walking to playtime.

I’m currently home from college and have a very open flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention, care, and love they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’m available throughout the day and can easily adapt to your pets routine. I have spent years caring for my own dogs and truly love being around animals. At home, I walk them twice a day, make sure their bowls are clean, and always give them fresh food and water. I also brush them and wipe them down when it is raining to help keep them clean and comfortable. I do my best to keep a routine that makes them feel safe and happy. I’ll bring the same level of love and attention to your pets treating them like my own with lots of patience, playtime, and care.
“We are so incredibly grateful for the care Kathryn provides our babies. She is punctual and reliable and enables us to go to work without stressing over how our babies are doing at home. The pictures are like the cherry on top! 🥰”
About: Hello, I’m Kirsten. I have been actively dog sitting for the last 5 years in and around thurmont and the surrounding areas. (Mount airy, woodbine, Frederick, smithsburg, Hagerstown. etc) I do both overnights in your home and boarding opportunities in our home. I can work from home most days which allows a very flexible schedule. I am willing to accommodate for what ever needs are present and will make sure your pet is well taken care of. Thanks for your consideration ! I work full time, I can provide care before and after work. I also have the flexibility to work from home as needed. Thank you! I do have a fenced in yard, no restrictions at my home as far as where the dog can go, they can sleep in my bed if they would like.
About: I’ve been a life time animal lover! I grew up with two dogs, a German Shepherd and a Westie. I currently live on a 300 acre farm with 9 cats. We have a guest house where I will board your pet, so no need to worry about any interaction with my current pets. I can offer a relaxing atmosphere and all day care on weekends along with morning and afternoon care on week days. I can also board or do drop-in visits for fish, hamsters, or horses. Your dog will love a relaxing mountain retreat! Your cat can enjoy a quiet vacation! I work full time as a teacher. I can board your pet all weekends or in the afternoons. I can take crate trained dogs anytime during the week but could only provide potty breaks every 6-8 hours. I am available for dog walks or drop-in visits any day in the afternoon or evening in the Chambersburg, Gettysburg, and Hagerstown areas. Your pet would live only with me in a private guest house. We have 300 acres to go for walks or chase balls! My husband and 9 cats live in the main house. Our cats don’t mind other animals but I can keep your pet away from the cats if you prefer. As a 15 year high school teacher, I am very trustworthy, authentic, and kind. I admit to being a bit of a “crazy animal person” as I try to pet every animal I see! I can be trusted with your animal for an extended time or just an afternoon walk! I can also board hamsters or horses.

“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.”
“Huck had such a great time! Communication was great and we loved the picture updates. Definitely felt at ease having our boy with Sarah. Already looking at our calendar for his next stay with her!”
“Diana always takes the greatest care of our daughter’s doggie Potato. She adjusted our dates to add another day at last minute due to an oversight on our end, which made our first cruise experience a great time for us all and that’s priceless. We are blessed to have her.”
“Charlie is the best sitter I have encountered on Rover. The set-up he has for the dogs allow great exercise, monitored socialization and tons of love. I have never had a bad experience with him and will continue to rebook with him for his services. He is extremely flexible and communicative throughout the entire stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Ellen is terrific. Her beautiful spacious farm provides a great change for dogs like mine who are inside an urban house. She is kind, thoughtful, and flexible.. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Emily was great and handled our 100 pound Doberman effortlessly. I never felt so comfortable going out of town. Our Doberman Zeus is cautious of new people and immediately loved Emily. She took him on long walks everyday and sent pictures. We will definitely be boarding him again with Emily.”
“Kelise was amazing with Trooper. He is very skittish so we were nervous about how he would adjust. She was great with him and he appeared to be comfortable, so much so that he wasn't ready to come back home yet. Lol She was communicative and sent lots of pictures. We look forward to using her again in the future! 10/10!”
“Melissa and her family were such a great place for Harper. She was able to spend time outside and off leash, as well as cozy up to the boys on the sofa - all of her favorite things.”
“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.”
“Heather and her family are the absolute best! We feel totally comfortable when Brady is in her care and can enjoy our vacation to the fullest. She also sends the cutest pics. :) Thank you so much Heather!”
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.
“We booked her at the last minute and she was very flexible and helpful! She and her family took really good care of our pup. We loved the photos that she sent us of our dog playing.”
“Julianne is great. Her and her husband were very caring and accommodating. She sent pictures of our pups multiple times which alleviated the stress of leaving them. Would definitely have her watch our dogs again.”

My pets get along very well with other animals. I have a yard, a large field across the street, and a dog park near by I can take dogs to if allowed.
“Christina is amazing! From start to finish, she went above and beyond caring for Boss and Chipper. She was wonderful with communication, sending regular updates and photos that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She even stepped in to help at the last minute, which was such a relief. I could tell she genuinely loves dogs—both Boss and Chipper were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the entire time. I felt so relieved knowing they were in such capable hands. I can’t recommend Christina highly enough and will definitely be booking her again!”
