“the absolute best! we have a difficult dog who needed help with feeding, insulin, and a lot of other medications for 2 weeks and she was more than capable of taking care of him (even stayed extra time some days when he wasn’t cooperative). great with communication and always super sweet to our boy. cannot recommend her to enough!”
“Mirella did a fantastic job pet sitting our two guinea pigs over Christmas. One of our pigs is elderly and has health issues, and Mirella handled them very professionally and compassionately. We felt so much better traveling knowing that our pigs were in good hands at home. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in third grade when I got one of my own. I have two now and have dealt with multiple different breeds. Friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I am currently a post graduate student in search of a job. As of right now, I do not have a job and I am looking to care for pets in the meantime. I have plenty of time to walk, feed, or play with your pets! I am available any weekday and most weekends! I have a fenced in yard as does most of my family who I’ve cared for their dogs. I respect all rules ensuring all pets are safe. I have experience with dogs who are pet aggressive and make sure she is never with any other pets.
“I truly cannot say enough good things about Sharyn, and am so incredibly glad to have met her. From the moment I reached out, she responded quickly and warmly -- very approachable, friendly, and professional. She made time to meet in advance, even on short notice, and came prepared with thoughtful questions, taking detailed notes on every detail of my cat's routine. She was incredibly thorough and conscientious, and it was obvious how much she cared. During the actual visits, she was communicative, reliable, and kind. Her updates were not only reassuring but lovely to read; she is incredibly caring and treated my cat like one of her own. And most importantly: my cat warmed up to her immediately with no hesitation at all! Sharyn is a wonderful cat sitter, extremely kind, communicative, and trustworthy. I feel very lucky to have found her and will absolutely be booking her again!”
“I have been very happy to have found Rebecca. She is extremely caring and a true dog lover. She’s very reliable and makes my life much easier. I have great pleasure working with her and will definitely book her again. I highly recommend her service. Your dog will love her.”
“Honor goes above and beyond and really cares about her relationship with her clients. She is dedicated to providing the best care. She knows my dog very well and communicates any concerns or issues. We deeply appreciate her!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a child, living with no less than 3 dogs at a time growing up, including other animals such as rabbits, Guinea pigs, turtles, bearded dragons, diamond tale doves and my current dog and cat. I’ve rescued 2 dogs from SPCA and trained them to be happy, healthy, content companions. I’ve taken care of cats, reptiles and dogs for neighbors in my hometown for over 10 years. I have experience with puppies and new litters so I’d be able to help out with that as well if needed. Everyone in my household is an experienced animal lover/owner as well :) I’m currently out of work and home for now so I have quite a bit of free time to help out with the local pets in need! I can coke for house visits in the day to feed, walk or entertain your pets as needed. Id be willing to stay and play with them a bit and or walk them.
“Karren did a wonderful job caring for our senior dog Daisy while we were away. She sent us photos and detailed reports after every visit, which were so wonderful to receive. In addition to feeding and watering and letting Daisy out for pees and poops, Karren administered Daisy's medication, cleaned up a mess, and brought in our packages. We will most definitely use her again.”
“Such a nice saver and excellent pet sitter. Ryan went over and behind the call of duty to ensure my trip was stress free and the 3 dogs and cat were well taken care off much love”
About: Years of experience, including 6 on Rover, but took a hiatus recently. Excited to be back to enjoy my adorable clients! Available to watch medically complicated clients. I work full time but am flexible with visit times and care and can make most clients’ schedules work! Looking forward to discussing your pets needs! Flexible based on needs of clients. For home visits, can offer walks, medical treatments, specialized care. We have a fully fenced in backyard and no access to unfamiliar pets.
About: I’ve been around dogs for over 10 years and have owned two dogs myself, so I understand the care, attention, and patience pups need. I’ve also helped walk and care for several extended family dogs over the years. Friends and family always consider me a “dog person,” and dogs naturally seem to warm up to me quickly. I love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company, and I’m excited to meet more amazing pups through Rover! During the school year, I balance classes with a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for dog walks and check-ins, especially on weekends. In the summer, I have even more availability and regularly fit dog walks, playtime, and pet care into my daily routine. I’m used to spending time with my own dogs before and after work or other responsibilities, so making sure pets get attention, exercise, and companionship is already a natural part of my day. I always aim to make pets feel comfortable and safe in their own home by sticking closely to their normal routine. I’ll follow any instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, or crate routines. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean and organized, and make sure pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I also like to send updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Alex and Brian are wonderful pet sitters. My cat Jasmine was very happy in their care. I received multiple pictures and updates at each visit and came home to a happy kitty. Thank you!”
About: I've been trained as a dog groomer for about a year and a half, so if your dog needs maintenance on its coat I'd be more than happy to help. I've worked with many kinds of dogs from 4 month old puppies to 15 year old seniors. I also have a senior dog, a yellow Labrador, 13 yrs. I'm currently on pursuit for a part time job, so have more time to take care of any animals right now! The only day that doesn't work for me is Sunday or anytime after 6:30 pm on Thursdays and Fridays. I would love to know your pets daily routine, likes and dislikes in order to provide the best service I can for your furry friend.
About: I have owned a couple of dogs, along with caring for families and neighbors animals. I have experienced caring for animals with medical issues as well. I am a new mom looking for some extra work where I can bring my little one with me. I have a very flexible schedule. I do have a fenced yard along with a pool, which wont be a problem as I own a smaller fence to secure pets. Along with parents who are animal lovers as well.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years, both in my own home and in clients’ homes. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also experienced with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique routine and comfort level. I believe pets deserve to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone stick to their normal routine, I’m happy to provide personalized care that fits their needs. I’m reliable, responsible, and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel like they’re with family. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet care. Throughout the school year, I work as an elementary school counselor, so I’m typically available after school on weekdays, as well as evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I’m very easy to communicate with and happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. Whether you need regular care or last-minute help, I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of affection. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic medications if needed, and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment.
“Nicole took excellent care of my 3 dogs and cat. My dogs are senior and she took the extra care and attention a senior dog needs. I will definitely have Nicole return to take care of my pets and I highly recommend her for your petsitting needs.”

Another great experience with Meena. She was available for a Friday night and Saturday am/pm drop in schedule. My dog Cocoa is a total diva and now on a special diet. Meena followed the feeding instructions and treated Cocoa with patience and care. I look forward to working with her again. Thanks, Meena!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Allentown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Allentown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Allentown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
