“We love Sarah! And so does Colt! We have been very blessed to find a sitter like Sarah, she is always so kind, we love receiving pictures from her while we are away. We know he is in good hands when she has him.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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 :)”
“Jesse provided excellent care and socialization for my one year old pup while I was out of town for a week. She kept me updated with lots of photos and videos each day, and let me know of any concerns. The daily feedback gave me peace of mind that my pup was safe and happy, and I could enjoy my trip. I highly recommend Jesse for pet boarding.”
“Lejune always treats our boy like he's her own. We never have any worries, and he loves playing with her son and their pupper. She's worth every penny. She noticed Rowan had itchy paws and got him some meds, played in the kiddy pool, and sent great updates and photos. We dont use anyone else.”
“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. 😊”
“Lillie and Dawson had a great time with Joel and Janelle. We know our babies and happy, safe and very well taken care of. We have already booked again! 🐾❤️”
“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!”
“Shaynna and her children took such good care of Teddy, yet again! Shaynna is so kind and amazing and she always takes care of Teddy’s needs perfectly. I have no worries when my baby boy is with her and her family and I’m beyond grateful for them! ❤️”
“Emily was wonderful. Very responsive and took great care of my dog. She also was very accommodating when I arrived back later then expected to pick up my dog. Will definitely use her again.”
“Tyson was well taken care of while we were on vacation for a week. Renee sent me photos everyday showing how spoiled he was getting! He had an amazing time and was exhausted after I picked him up. Thank you!”
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.
“The whole family was amazing towards sascha and so caring and gentle with her. She was beyond scared and they took their time and made her feel welcome even when she was anxious and so forth. I cant recommend them enough, they are the family you want watching your dog.”
“Brisket got to play with other dogs every day and he was so well socialized and so cared for. I would highly recommend Ellen to any others that need to board a dog for a week. I will definitely be using Ellen again.”
“Tina has been wonderful with our dog. He has a great time with her. We really appreciate that she's available on holidays and we don't have to make other arrangements.”
“Briana was an absolute lifesaver - I had a last minute cancel and she was not only able to take on my dog for a week, she made sure he had an amazing week full of fun adventures! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Satsuki was great! She asked all the relevant/pertinent questions before our dog’s stay, kept our dog entertained, happy, and safe during his stay, and kept us updated on how he was doing! We would definitely recommend Satsuki!!”

“Corrinna did a wonderful job caring for our cat while we were away this week. Coming home, it was clear that our cat had been well cared for, happy to see us, but relaxed and content, which tells us all of her needs were met while we were gone. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. We truly appreciate Corrinna’s care, reliability, and attention, and we would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Angela always does a great job with our kitties. We appreciate the updates and many pictures we get each day that she visits our home. Never had an issue or concern. We only book with her and will continue to do so.”
“Kayla is such an amazing pet sitter. Our high energy 2 year old GSP just LOVES when she visits for a potty break and to play. This is evident from the photos that she sends after each visit. I feel so secure with her entering our home and taking care of our beloved dog. I would give her 10 stars if I could! She is so responsive to requests and is the perfect substitue in our absense. She follows up her visits with a detailed account. Book a visit with Kayla... you will be elated with the results!”

“Susan does a fantastic job with my cat! Looks after other little things in the house just to make it wonderful to come home and make my cat's life a little better too. He's not mad at me for leaving anymore.”
“Ashli did a great job dealing with a challenging situation that came up with my cats’ microchip feeders. She was communicative and worked with me to find a solution. I appreciated her willingness to go the extra mile to make sure my kitties would be safe. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and hope to call on her again.”
About: I have personally owned cats for the past 20+ years. I rescued my first cat Amos, as a stray kitten. He was my first pet that I had on my own after moving into my first apartment. We spent 17 wonderful years together.

I currently have 2 cats: 7 year old siblings, Henry & Dinah - also 2 stray kittens dropped off at my old farmhouse.
About: I love animals and have grown up taking care of many different pets. From foster kittens a few days old up to an again mastiff, I'm comfortable taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. Today I have 2 dogs at home, and would love to care for your pets!
“Alexis was awesome! She stopped by on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day to take care of our 3 sweet kitties. She went above and beyond - pet them, played with them, and made sure they were happy! Even our shy furbaby came out to play when Alexis was here. I highly recommend her, we will definitely be reaching out again in the future. Thanks again!! ?”

“Sami had a great visit with Charlie! She was very relaxed even with the other dogs! Charlie provided great written feedback which eased any concerns I had with our first-time visit. Charlie sent pictures of Sami during her stay. It was a great experience. Will definitely have Sami stay again!”
“Dulce loves Lejune!!!! I know she is in good hands and always has fun! I always appreciate how communicative and prompt she is.

“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: My wife Jessie and I have been around dogs all our lives. You can trust and rely on us to make sure your dog feels safe, secure, and at home while you are away. We take care of your pets as if they are our own! Unlike kennels and certain doggy daycares, we do not utilize crates or cages. We provide them with extra attention to make them feel at home and relaxed while you are away. This is especially important for dogs with separation anxiety. Being left in kennels or crates all day can leave your dog with heightened anxiety and traumatic stress. When you bring your dog to us you can be assured that we will make them feel at home and treat them as a part of our family while they are here. We will not crate your dogs and leave them like some doggy daycares and kennels, unless you request that they are crated. We will give your dogs the extra attention they need while you are away. I work different days throughout each week, but my wife Jessie is home full-time with the dogs and our kids. So one of us will always be here with them the majority of the time. We pay extra attention to your dogs so they feel at home. Feed them regularly as specified, as well as taking them outside to get exercise at least a few times a day.
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.
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. If given enough notice (usually a week) I can take off the days you’d need from one of my jobs, and then just schedule my other around it! I’ve had and taken care of dogs/cats since a young age. I love all animals and caring for them! Ive taken 2 pre-vet classes and would love to have a job working with animals full-time, no matter the job! As of now, I am caring for my 2 cats and leopard gecko! I only work Thurs-Sun, never more than 8 hours + my other job I can pick my own schedule! I am free all other weekdays to be able to take care of your pets! 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! I prefer having the option to crate in case I need to go out for a bit, but I have taken care of pets who didn’t need one! 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.”
“Could not be happier with the love and attention my dogs received during daycare with Kelli ??? Oodles of wonderful photos were provided to capture their fun and adventure!”
About: Hi, I'm Suzie and I'll turn 62 this month... That is almost how long that I've been a pet owner from dogs, cats, horses, ponies, chickens cows, peacocks.. I'm also a Registered Nurse who worked critical care for 11 years and have been an RN for 35 years. I'm very comfortable with injections, and giving meds, assessing the animal and knowing when to call a vet. I have a Newfoundland here and a newfie/great dane cross, 3 house cats, and then the rest of the animals outside. The dog yard has a pet door that leads into a small area in my kitchen that is currently fenced off so no one gets free run of the house unless supervised. They can come and go back and forth as much as they want to. My back yard is lined with 4 board fencing that also has American wire in the inside to keep little ones in. I'm currently working flex at the hospital so I'm actually home almost all the time. I have a roommate that helps with the farm and the dogs when I'm not here. I'm a home body so I'm home here almost all the time. I have a 4 board fenced in yard that is also lined on the inside with American wire for my yard and have chains on the gates leading into and out of the yard. My fence is 5 ft high. There is a pet door leading into the kitchen which has a small fenced in area inside the kitchen so that the dogs can be contained just in case they are wet. I allow them into the house once they are dry.
“Rosa did an excellent job taking care of my boy, she took him outside on plenty of walks, fed him the exact right amount, and sent me pictures throughout the day! I would highly recommend her to anybody who needs care for their pet.”

About: I have about 10 years of experience caring for dogs. From working at a doggie daycare, to an animal hospital Ive always found myself caring for other people’s pets.

About: I took care of my shih tzu for 12 years, he recently passed of old age. I had dogs growing up but Oreo was the first that really attached to me. He whined if he couldn't get into the bathroom with me. He slept in my bed with me until he got too old to be that high up without supervision. I gave him embarassing mom haircuts for 10 years because I knew he hated the entire experience of going to the groomers and I wanted to spare him the discomfort. I was always looking for ways to make that dog more comfortable. I have experience in caring for senior dogs, so you can rest assured I will do everything I can for your senior furbabies' comfort. I'm currently working part-time weekdays caring for children but my weekends are open for watching your fur babies!! I usually wake up around 10-11am so I can be available any time after that Friday-Sunday! I always check the water after being gone to make sure there's still enough in there and that it's clean, and feed the cats 3 times a day when possible. Some days just twice usually when I have work. I am happy to follow whatever feeding schedule you have for your fur babies! I also try to brush the cats once a day to cut down on shedding. If you have brushes I am happy to give your pets all the brushin's! We also play with chew toys, cat wands, laser pointers, and socks! Whatever toys you have I'm sure we will have a blast!

“Amazing person! Gave multiple picture updates and told us everything she did with our dogs! Came over to meet the dogs to see if she would be a match, listened to everything we needed to say about them! We have a huge yard that they can play in but she still took them on walks in our neighborhood!!! Taught the dogs some new tricks and gave them so much love when we were at work!! Highly recommend Shannon! You will not be disappointed and your dogs will love her just like ours do!!”

About: I'm certified in CPR emergency vet services and have watched dogs in my home for years. If you are working long hours and or regular hours and need someone to take care of your dog while you're at work, I'm the one. Sometimes when we leave our dogs alone at home while we work they can get into a lot of things. They can get bored. They can be destructive and they get very lonely. Most of the clients that I work with have a job work long hours and their dogs at times have torn their house, their furniture or whatever they can find completely up and then they have such a mess when they get home. We love our dogs. We love them more than anything and it's hard to come home like that. So if you're tired of it and need someone to help, I'm the one for you. I'm retired. I have two dogs that are so used to other dogs. They don't get out of my sight. Believe me. I have leashes harnesses beds. Anything they need? Lots of toys and lots of activity. I don't have a fenced-in yard but that's why I take small dogs and I can walk them two to three times a day. Whatever you would like to have done. They are allowed on my furniture and in bed with me if they happen to spend the night. They have full run of the household just like mine does. My two dogs are small and they love other dogs after their first initial visit. My dogs are used to other dogs in my house that are not mine and we all get along. Meet and greets are essential. I love animals of all kinds, but I find that dogs are my ones that I can handle the best. It gives the owner peace of mind knowing that their dog is with someone that will take good care of them. So if you need somebody like me just me know. We'll see what we can work out. Randomly I will be able to watch them overnight. If something happens you have to work late or the weather gets bad and you can't make it to my home. That's not a problem. I've got a big bed and lots of blankets and lots of pillows and lots of dog beds if that's where they like to sleep. 🐾 All dogs must be up to date on shots and flea and tick medicine. All dogs will be checked when they come to my house to make sure that there's no fleas. If they do have fleas then I will bathe them And let you know that they need flea and tick medicine before they return. I have plenty of references if you request. I’m retired and am home all day. I’m prepared ahead of time for hosting dogs. The reason I have a one-day notice is so I can prepare my house with anything I may need so that there is no leaving the dogs by theirself. All pets free roam my home. They get to sleep wherever they are used to. They are fed according to the pet parents instructions. All pets get two to three walks a day .Lots of potty breaks, water provided outside and of course inside. They get lots of hugs and treats if aloud by pet parents.

“We love Sarah! And so does Colt! We have been very blessed to find a sitter like Sarah, she is always so kind, we love receiving pictures from her while we are away. We know he is in good hands when she has him.”
“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!”
“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 :)”
“Jesse provided excellent care and socialization for my one year old pup while I was out of town for a week. She kept me updated with lots of photos and videos each day, and let me know of any concerns. The daily feedback gave me peace of mind that my pup was safe and happy, and I could enjoy my trip. I highly recommend Jesse for pet boarding.”
“Lillie and Dawson had a great time with Joel and Janelle. We know our babies and happy, safe and very well taken care of. We have already booked again! 🐾❤️”
“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!”
“Shaynna and her children took such good care of Teddy, yet again! Shaynna is so kind and amazing and she always takes care of Teddy’s needs perfectly. I have no worries when my baby boy is with her and her family and I’m beyond grateful for them! ❤️”
“Emily was wonderful. Very responsive and took great care of my dog. She also was very accommodating when I arrived back later then expected to pick up my dog. Will definitely use her again.”
“Tyson was well taken care of while we were on vacation for a week. Renee sent me photos everyday showing how spoiled he was getting! He had an amazing time and was exhausted after I picked him up. Thank you!”
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.
“The whole family was amazing towards sascha and so caring and gentle with her. She was beyond scared and they took their time and made her feel welcome even when she was anxious and so forth. I cant recommend them enough, they are the family you want watching your dog.”
“Brisket got to play with other dogs every day and he was so well socialized and so cared for. I would highly recommend Ellen to any others that need to board a dog for a week. I will definitely be using Ellen again.”
“Tina has been wonderful with our dog. He has a great time with her. We really appreciate that she's available on holidays and we don't have to make other arrangements.”
“Briana was an absolute lifesaver - I had a last minute cancel and she was not only able to take on my dog for a week, she made sure he had an amazing week full of fun adventures! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Satsuki was great! She asked all the relevant/pertinent questions before our dog’s stay, kept our dog entertained, happy, and safe during his stay, and kept us updated on how he was doing! We would definitely recommend Satsuki!!”

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.”
“THE BEST! Michelle and her son are the SWEETEST. So easy to talk to and very communicative. We are so happy we found Michelle . Unfortunately, our previous sitter can no longer watch dogs. So we have tried to find a sitter that matches her love and treated our girl like her own. Our doggo was even so sad when she got home. I'm sure she missed Michelle and her sweet son. She had such a great time being spoiled and playing all day.”
“I am so very pleased with Cheryl and her furry family. Cheryl was very meticulous about assessing my dogs needs and care right from the start. My dog is quite skidish about new dogs, new environments and new people. This was no challenge for Cheryl. She was able to ease my dogs insecurities right away and allowed her 2 dogs time to meet our little girl on her terms and very cautiously. Cheryl was flexible with my drop off and pick up times and communicated with me throughout the entire stay with updates and photos. She also provided my dog with medications for her skin and gave us great feedback on how I may be able to better care for her allergies. Cheryl is a very responsible dog owner and it certainly carries into her ability to care for my dog as well. My dog was happy and stress free while in Cheryl's care and I will definitely be using her again! If you're looking for a caretaker that will provide top notch care and treat your furry companion with the love and respect they deserve, then look no further and reach out to Cheryl.”
