“We are new to the country and Rover app . Therefore had fair share of doubts with regard to leaving our pet Madder . Our experience with Emma has rested all our doubts. Her skills, smiling and affable demeanor instantly lifted our spirits and our confidence bounced right back. Emma updated us with pics and videos of our pet and her reassuring words made our day out, stress free and delightful. We look forward to her services again. Thank you Emma and team Rover .”

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs all my life (basset hound and dachshund mix) and now a yellow lab! I just moved back to Bucks County from Arlington, VA where I walked two dogs consistently (on the side of my corporate job). I also volunteered at a dog shelter where I would take dogs out for short fosters, which I loved! I did both of those things for about a year. I’m comfortable administering medication and making dogs feel safe and at home. My sister’s dog—dachshund mix—is very anxious and reactive and my lab is 133 pounds and full of energy, so I have seen a lot! I am currently in-between jobs and not entirely sure what the future holds as I take a break from corporate America, but I hope that doesn’t stop you from requesting my services. With that being said, my schedule is flexible! I would love to find dogs to take care of/walk regularly, but I am also open to sporadic drop-ins. For the foreseeable future, I will be taking a class in North Wales on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Fridays, 10am-12:15pm but I can walk/tend to before and after. *As you can see, I change my hair cut a lot. Right now I’m rocking a blonde buzz cut. (Who knows what’s next!) I am committed to keeping your dog safe, happy, and comfortable. I will pay attention on sidewalks and around other animals, people, and cars. One of my dogs is reactive, as I mentioned, and can nip, so I am familiar with holding him back to keep everyone safe. On the other hand, my 133 pound lab wants to say hi to everyone, and I recognize that not everyone likes that, so I am also familiar with keeping him back. When visiting homes, I am respectful by staying in the designated space I am welcome, taking shoes off if doing a visit, and not meandering around. I have experience having possession of a key with past clients and am very responsible with it! I contacted my past clients through another app, but if I had their phone numbers I would ask for a testimonial! I’ve also worked with an older dog that needed diapers! If there is anything I haven’t mentioned but is a need for you, feel free to ask. I am more than willing to learn. 😃

“Wendy watched our shepherd mix, Dakota, while we were abroad for 8 nights. Prior to our trip, Dakota got diagnosed with an illness that required twice a day antibiotics to be given. Wendy made me feel at ease that this would be no problem. I received many updates and knew that Dakota was being very well cared for! Wendy is very thoughtful and kind. She has a very sweet manner with dogs. On a windy day she double checked that Dakota’s outdoor fence had no damage. I greatly appreciate Wendy’s care for my girl!”

About: With a full year of Rover experience and a strong base of repeat clients, I bring reliability, consistency, and genuine care to every booking. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, including my own 80‑lb senior lab, and I understand how important it is to maintain routines, provide calm structure, and keep pets comfortable. Whether your pet needs playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience, I’m committed to giving them attentive, high‑quality care. A meet & greet is required for all first time clients. I want to make sure this is a good fit for everyone! Pet care is a core part of my everyday life because pet‑sitting is my full‑time job. My days revolve around maintaining consistent routines, giving each pet plenty of attention, and making sure everyone feels comfortable and cared for. I’m home throughout the day, which means I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and companionship without rushing or squeezing things in. With my own 8‑year‑old, 80‑lb lab by my side, caring for dogs is simply part of the rhythm of my home and my week. Pets staying with me get reliable structure, lots of interaction, and a calm environment where they can settle in and feel at ease. I offer both in‑home boarding and in‑home sitting, and I tailor my care to whatever helps pets feel the most comfortable. When pets stay with me, they have full access to my fenced‑in backyard for safe outdoor time, plus daily walks either through downtown Lambertville or along the quieter D&R towpath depending on their energy level and personality. My home is set up for dogs to relax, follow familiar routines, and enjoy plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to stay in a client’s home when that’s the best fit. In those cases, I adapt completely to the pet’s existing schedule, environment, and household routines—whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, maintaining training habits, or keeping their usual walking routes. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, understood, and cared for, no matter which service their family chooses.

“We had Danielle watch our pup for a weekend at our home and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was completely stress free with her watching our dog & house!”

“Giavanna was amazing! So communicative and had my dogs playing and well cared for. One of my pups is extremely shy and she must be a miracle worker because he was a normal pup with her!”

“John (Jack) was fantastic. Tobi and Lea loved him. We will definitely use him in the future. I have used many Rover sitters in Colorado and now here in Pa. John is the best! Thanks!”

“Bonnie was absolutely incredible! She’s reliable, sweet, and has such great energy, and she treated our pup so well. We have a senior pup with cancer and recently moved to NJ, so I was really stressed about leaving the country. In Clyde’s 13 years, we had only ever left him with family, but we ended up needing care for him last minute. Bonnie went above and beyond to make sure Clyde was taken care of the whole time we were away, and she was amazing from the start. She sent updates, pictures, and videos, which meant the world to us and helped me feel so much less anxious about being far from my pup. Her love for animals shines through in the way she cared for him. We’re so happy we found Bonnie and look forward to using her again! What a relief as a pet parent to know your animal is in great hands while you’re away. That’s truly priceless. I highly recommend booking Bonnie for pet care. Thank you for everything, Bonnie!! 💕”

About: I am an animal lover and live in the New Hope area. I have over 10 years experience walking and caring for pets. My husband and I are frequent travelers and know the importance of finding a sitter who cares for your animals just as you would. I have experience watching all size and breeds of dogs, as well as cats and other pets and am happy to do so in your house or mine. I only take in one dog (or multiple from the same family) so that they can get all the attention they need while you are away. I treat your dog(s) as if they were my own. We have a large house and yard for your dog to take advantage of. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!! I work from home and have the flexibility to be with your pets during the day and night. My schedule is also flexible for walks if that is what you need! My number one priority is the safety of your pet. I love to take walks with them and am happy to let them out to play in your fenced yard.

About: Hi! I am a college student with a lifelong love for animals. I grew up with cats and currently have 2 of them. I also have a sweet dog who has epilepsy, so I am experienced with giving medication and handling pets with special needs. I am responsible, caring, and understand how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pets, so I will treat them as if they were my own. I have a pretty flexible schedule for walking and staying with your pets. It will vary week by week, but I will always have time at some point each day. As a sitter, my top priorities are your pet’s safety and comfort, especially in their own environment. I always follow any specific instructions you provide, including routines, feeding schedules, and medication needs. I make sure your pet is never left unattended for extended periods and I’m attentive to their behavior and well-being at all times. I treat your home with the utmost respect by keeping it clean, secure, and leaving it just as I found it. I will also provide regular updates and photos so you can see that your pet is happy and in good hands. My goal is to make your time away stress-free, both for you and your pet.

“Yana took the time to visit with our family before staying at our home with Charlie. He had instantly taken to her gentle manner which made us feel so comfortable. She exercised patience with his sometimes stubborn but lovable manner. We loved her daily texts with pictures outlining how the day went. I feel at ease knowing she is caring for our Charlie.”

“I will begin with my last paragraph: I highly recommend Vanessa as a pet sitter and would absolutely have her care for my dogs again. I feel very comfortable knowing that they—and my home—are in her hands. If you need more information, read on! I reached out to Vanessa to pet-sit in my home, including overnight stays, for three days. Given her background working at the EASEL shelter and her interest in special education and social work, I thought she would be an especially good fit for my two dogs: my eight-year-old, 80-pound poodle mix and my four-month-old, 15-pound Miniature American Shepherd puppy.
 I was somewhat anxious about leaving a young puppy with a sitter. At four months old, puppies are still learning, and I knew that inconsistent handling could easily lead to the development of unwanted habits. From our very first meeting, however, Vanessa gave me confidence that my dogs were in good hands.
 At our Meet & Greet, my large poodle mix approached Vanessa with his big, loud, deep bark. It was the first time he had ever met her and she handled the introduction beautifully. Rather than immediately trying to engage with him, she remained calm and allowed him the time and space to figure out that she was not a threat. She didn't overreact or become nervous, and the interaction went very well.
 When she met the puppy, who immediately started jumping on her, I said, "Off," at the same moment Vanessa said, "Down." She immediately adjusted and began using "Off" as well. That small moment told me a lot. It was clear that she was paying attention to the puppy's development and understood how important consistency is when training a young dog. She listened carefully to my concerns and gave me thoughtful feedback, which reassured me that she truly understood what I was looking for.
 While I was away, Vanessa sent me pictures and videos of the dogs eating both breakfast and dinner. This was especially reassuring with a four-month-old puppy because it confirmed that they were being fed at the appropriate times. I trust the sitters I hire, but I also appreciate having confirmation that they've arrived and knowing that important parts of the dogs' routine are being followed. I've had sitters in the past who didn't provide that kind of communication, leaving me wondering whether they had arrived or whether something unexpected had prevented them from getting there. A simple picture or message eliminates that unnecessary anxiety for me, and Vanessa was excellent about keeping me informed.
 After I returned, I asked Vanessa if she would be willing to sit again in a couple of weeks. She adjusted her schedule to accommodate my dates, which I thought was incredibly considerate and definitely above and beyond the call of duty!
 As I watched Vanessa interact with the dogs after spending three days with them, I could see that she understood the importance of correcting the puppy when necessary and, just as importantly, knew how to do it appropriately. She didn't overreact, but she also didn't let things slide. She was consistent about using the correct commands, which is particularly important with a puppy who is learning what is expected of her. I now have a list of obedience commands that I can leave for Vanessa on her next visit, and I have complete confidence that she will use them consistently.
 When I returned home, I found the house exactly as I had left it. Vanessa had even stripped the bed in the guest room, making it easier for me to wash the sheets. That small gesture was another example of how thoughtful and considerate she was throughout her stay.
 Vanessa is attentive, thoughtful, responsible, and genuinely caring. She clearly understands dogs, but what impressed me most was her attentiveness to my puppy's development and her willingness to follow through consistently with the training and routines I had established.
 I highly recommend Vanessa as a pet sitter and would absolutely have her care for my dogs again. I feel very comfortable knowing that they—and my home—are in her hands.”

“Wydia was so awesome with our puppy. She’s extremely personable and accommodating. I was impressed by her timeliness and level of commitment. She offers great suggestions without being pushy. She gelled so well with all the family members and this is huge because it’s our first dog and we’re nervous about everything. So grateful to have found her, it definitely inspires confidence in us to know that we could use Rover to reach out skilled and loving pet lovers who live up to their great reviews and provide reliable service.”

Lulu E.

“Ethan was great! Called ahead of time to make sure it was a good fit. When he got here, our dog took to him right away. He was communicative and shared pictures with us afterward. We felt a lot better on our trip knowing our dog was in good hands!”

Brittany H.

“Emily was fantastic. When my work travel unexpectedly extended she was able to continue sitting my pup. She was extremely communicative throughout the entire sit and gave me peace of mind and heart while I was away.”
