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 am a nursing student who has always loved dogs and taken great care of them! I grew up with an eskipoo and cockapoo, and now I am raising my fur-baby Auggie! With my goldendoodle, Auggie, I have trained him and we have successfully graduated two puppy training classes at PetSmart. I have pet sit for friends and family over the years as well. I work as a Patient Care Technician and Nurse Extern, so my typical experience is with the elderly. I love animals, and I love caregiving so being able to help out families in my area is my overall goal! I am currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule! Friday-Monday is my typical availability. However, I sometimes get cancelled from my weekday shifts and would be available for some same-day bookings! I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. As a nursing student, I'm dependable, attentive, and comfortable following detailed care instructions. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime, a quiet companion, or extra patience, I'll make sure they feel safe and cared for while you're away. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine as much as possible.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. From playful puppies to senior pets needing a little extra patience and attention, I’ve cared for them all—and I truly treat every animal like family. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a fun, energizing walk or a calm, reassuring visit, I adjust my care to fit your pet’s unique personality and needs. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. During visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, medication (if needed), and lots of affection and attention. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. I’d be honored to care for your pet as if they were my own! I'm currently working part-time on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I can usually pet walk/drop in or pet sit on the other days. I prefer to care for pets in their own environment because that's where they feel most comfortable. The safety of your pet is the most important thing to me.

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.

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.

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.

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.
