“David was the perfect sitter for our pups! Especially with my senior dog who requires more attention and medicine. Both dogs took to him really well. I would highly recommend him for any pet sitting!!!”
“Gabrielle did a great job with Maggie! Gabrielle is very responsive and easy to work with. Maggie got lots of exercise and I got lots of pictures. I would definitely use Gabrielle again!”
“Melissa was amazing with our baby Zelda! We were in Florida for a week, and she kept us up-to-date on everything twice a day. She kept our house nice and tidy as well. It was such a relief to have someone so kind, reliable, and respectful watching our Zelda, and home, while we were away. We look forward to having her back! :)”
“Justina has housesat for us twice now (once for about two weeks and once for a weekend) and watched my two pups and cat. She’s done an awesome job, kept us informed, sent pictures, and left the house very clean. We’ll be using her again anytime we travel!!”
“We couldn't be happier with the way Eren and Luca cared for our two young cats while we were away! They gave them so much love and attention, and were very patient with our skittish kitty, monitoring him carefully to make sure he was getting enough food when he was too anxious to eat at regular mealtimes. They were great about checking in and sent us lots of video and photo updates, making it easy for us to relax during our trip in the confidence that our cats were being well taken care of. They followed our instructions carefully and left our house just as they found it. We highly recommend them!”
“I was initially hesitant to use Rover, but I'm so glad I did! Casey was absolutely fantastic—great communication throughout the entire stay and super responsive to my questions. She sent us pictures, which I appreciated so much! It was clear my dogs were well taken care of and happy. I am so happy to have a responsible and trustworthy care taker for my fur babies. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Phoebe house/dog sat for us. She took excellent care of Rocket and sent lots of pictures. She paid attention to all of our instructors and set our minds at ease that all was going well. Phoebe is a true animal lover and I won't hesitate to request her services again”
“Out of all the dog sitters we’ve had, Kelly is my favorite! I completely trust her and she goes above and beyond when she watches my pets. She takes them for multiple walks and will take the extra time to add some healthy additions to their raw food instead of just going with the bare minimum. One of my dogs doesn’t do well with other dogs, and I feel she is 100% capable of being mindful of this on walks. My dogs are also very high energy and this doesn’t faze her at all! I highly recommend Kelly.”
“Crystal is great with my very senior dog. She is trustworthy and dependable and puts my mind at ease when I am away. I would absolutely recommend Crystal for overnight care in the home.”
About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages and energy levels. I'm comfortable with walks, feeding schedules and giving lots of love! I'm reliable and will treat your pet like they're my own! I'm currently a college student at Shippensburg University and am home for summer break. I work part time as a lifeguard so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! I am very adaptable to every pets needs. I'm very detail oriented and attentive, if you have any specific instructions on how to care for your pet you can be sure they will be followed!
“David R. Is by far the finest Dog Sitter I have encountered in my 30+ years as a pet owner. David cared for my two French bulldogs, Alma and Jessup, for five nights while I attended a conference. David sent comprehensive daily updates along with adorable pictures of my pups. He promptly responded to any questions and all inquiries! I would recommend David to anyone looking to pamper their pets!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and loved the little critters a ton, I sometimes show too much attention, but that’s fine by me :) I’m available at any time so I can watch them how ever long or walk them and check on them all day long so everything works! I have a kind puppy that would love to play with your dog and a yard to play in and we can run around the neighborhood if you doggy enjoys that!
“Hands down, Guinevere has been the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She responded in a very timely manner, kept us updated on how our three dogs were doing and sent many pictures. Two of our dogs normally go on a hunger strike when we leave, but this was no problem with Guinevere there. She even won over our crabby dog! House was left cleaner than when we left. We’re excited to book with Guinevere again in the near future.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years and have been around all kinds of dogs my whole life. I’m experienced with different temperaments, routines, and care needs, and I always provide patient, attentive care. I mainly have experience with older dogs (1 year to senior) and don’t shy away from the many needs dogs require in their twilight years. I primarily have been dog sitting for a close friend with two beagle mixes and can tell you they gave me enough experience to be able to handle the high energy and stubbornness that comes with their breed. I’m a huge animal lover so it’s all worth it in the end when our furry friends are happy and thriving! I work a full time job 3:30 to midnight so my hours of availability are mornings until 2PM and I have off on weekends so I have plenty of time to play with your pups on those days. I take the time to double check with pet parents booking with me to see if my schedule works for them so I can make sure I am the best fit for you and your pets! I take great care in respecting the homes of pets and owners when I’m providing care. I strive to prevent messes when possible and make sure pets are fed, watered and their spaces are well maintained and home owners spaces are left the same or better than when they departed.
“M has been wonderful with our new puppy, and helping our older dog acclimate to all the energy! In addition to daily care, M has worked on training and extra activities to help our puppy learn basic behaviors. We are so grateful!”
About: I've pet sat since 2014, I've taken good care of their pets for my family and friends.I have a wealth of knowledge of all breeds and love to spoil and play with dogs and cats. I'm looking to work as a full time as a dog walker or pet sitter. I have an open and flexible schedule to provide the best care. I have a questionnaire that helps me learn your pets needs so that I'm ready to step in and make vacations or work days easy on your pet(s).

Absolutely wonderful! This was our first stay with her and already booked her to watch our dogs again in the future. She put us at ease with leaving her with our anxious girl but she gave them both so much love. Great at communicating and sending updates/photos!
Justina was an absolute dream while watching our dog and our apartment. She took exceptional care of both our pup and place while sending regular updates and pictures to let us know how she was doing. She is kind, responsive, gentle and careful with animals, and great to work with. We had complete peace of mind working with her and we would happily rebook her anytime we were in need!
He was really great to work with. Very communicative and took good care of my dogs, keeping them on their usual routine. He was also easy to coordinate with and very responsive, which I really appreciated. He does have some daytime commitments, so just something to keep in mind and talk through ahead of time depending on your needs. Overall everything went smoothly and I would definitely book with him again.
Jackie blew my expectations out of the water. I simply thought I was going to find a pet sitter to watch my 4 pets. However, Jackie has become a friend. My dogs and cats absolutely love her and she stayed and cared for them more than I ever expected someone would. She treated them like her own, and I was so happy to know that they were well taken care of while our family was away. She was even flexible in schedule when our flights it a major delay. We will definitely be seeing you again Jackie!!!😊 thank you so much!!
Melissa was fabulous. In advance of our trip, Melissa came to meet Wally, Poppy and Rosie (our dog and cats). Melissa was very comfortable with all three of them. Rosie pretty immediately climbed in her lap. We knew we needed somebody special since Rosie, one of the cats, needs special care including oral and transdermal meds. Melissa was prepared to handle that. While we were gone Melissa sent daily updates and photos. Seeing the way all three of them around her, I knew they were in great hands. I really do think Melissa is the best.
Kendal was on time and connected right away with my dogs. She stayed at our home and everything was clean and straightened out when we arrived. We received texts and pictures and saw that our dogs were happy and well taken care off. I will definitely re-book her and recommend her highly.
Tracy is amazing! We had to go to West Virginia for the weekend and I didn’t have to worry one bit about our pups getting the best care! Not only did she feed them and let them out, she took time to do some training / games with them and even taught them new things! She was very attentive; sent lots of pictures and videos! Also, when the girls were playing one of them got hurt. She took super good care of her by keeping an eye on it and washed her face daily to ensure no infection! Not only did she take super good care of the pups, we came home to a perfectly maintained home! She did all of the dishes, mopped the floors (since it was snowing and there was salt and marks all over) and even replaced our milk because she used it! We didn't even require any of these things! To say Tracy is awesome is an understatement! We will definitely be using her again!
Ines is an amazing sitter! She stayed at our home to care for our two dogs and did a fantastic job. Her communication was excellent and thoughtful, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in good hands while we were away. She was respectful of our home, and our pups were safe, happy, and so comfortable with her. Highly recommend!
Makayla was great. I used her for house sitting for my blind dog for a 5 night stay and used her again for a separate 1 night stay. Included giving my dog medicated eye drops. My dog loved her, she sent pictures, and was patient with my dog coming down stairs. She was able to give my dog her eye drops. No complaints here would certainly use her again if needed!
Amanda is incredible! She cared for my pet like they were her own, kept me updated the whole time, and left my home spotless. I felt completely at ease while I was away. I’ll absolutely book her again! She’s trustworthy, kind, intuitive, and clearly takes pride in what she does.
