“Gabrielle is amazing. Left our house in better condition than we did! And my pups absolutely love her. She was great with my cats, too, who rarely show their faces to anyone but our family. I hate to recommend her so highly, because I want to make sure she is always available for us when we need her! But she is amazing. I do highly recommend.”

“Kate was absolutely FANTASTIC!!! My cat adored her, and she took such good care of him. She sent lots of updates while I was gone, and was super conscientious, especially in regards to my special care instructions. 10000% recommend. Absolutely wonderful!”

“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!!”

“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.”

“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! :)”

About: I (Eren) have been a veterinary technician since 2023, working in a variety of settings including a clinic, shelter, and university research hospital caring for special-needs dogs. Through this experience, I’m comfortable with medical care, senior pets, administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and handling animals with unique behavioral needs. I’ve also had animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to exotics, so I understand how different every species (and every personality!) can be. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with shy or anxious animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My partner Luca is also part of our Rover profile and shares this same passion for animal care. We have multiple pets together and work as a team to provide attentive, reliable care. Luca previously worked at the same clinic I’m at as a receptionist and veterinary assistant, and now works in a science lab where he also helps care for lab animals. His experience makes him calm, capable, and very comfortable handling a wide range of animals. What sets us apart is that we combine professional veterinary experience with genuine, everyday love for animals. Between the two of us, your pets will always have attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. We currently have cats, ferrets, mice and 1 bearded dragon of our own, and we hold ourselves to the same high standard of care that we would want for them. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine because animals have always been a huge part of our lives. I work full-time, but I schedule my Rover services around my work hours so that every visit gets my full attention. I’m typically available before or after work for drop-ins, walks, and evening check-ins, and I always communicate clearly about my availability. My partner Luca helps provide additional flexibility. He is a full-time student and works part-time in a lab, with a schedule that tends to stay consistent for longer periods. Because our schedules often complement each other, one of us is usually available when the other is not. This allows us to offer more consistent and reliable care throughout the day. Even with busy schedules, caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy and make time for, and we never take on more than we can fully commit to. We primarily care for pets in our clients’ homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. As a veterinary technician, safety is always my first priority. We follow your pet’s normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and playtime, while also keeping an eye out for any early signs of stress or illness. We’re respectful of your home, trustworthy with your space, and committed to creating a calm, clean environment for your pets while you’re away. We provide regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pet is doing.
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!
“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!”

“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!!”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and reliable pet lover who has grown up caring for animals my whole life. I’ve had a dog, cat, and hamster over the years, and currently I have a dog of my own who keeps me active and smiling every day. For the past 8 years, I’ve consistently dog sat in my home for a friend while she’s away on vacation, giving me lots of hands-on experience with daily care, routines, and making pets feel comfortable in a home environment. More recently, I’ve expanded my services to include in-home pet sitting, walks, and drop-in visits for friends and family in my area. I work from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, so I’m available for pet care before and after those hours. I’m dependable, attentive, and always treat every pet like they’re part of my own family! I make sure to give pets tons of attention and make sure they are properly feed and taken out on time! They’ll never feel like their owner isn’t home!
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as i could remember. I currently have 3 cats and I take care of my grandmothers dog from time to time when i go to new york . I love my animals so much and they mean the world to me. I take care of my cats everyday, i make sure they have food and fresh water. I get in some snuggles and cuddles with them everyday and make sure every one feels loved. I make sure their liter box is changed so they have a great place to use the restroom and so the house won’t stink. With my experience with caring for children , i realize that animals are similar with care in some ways. Some animals need a lot of attention so it requires you to be there for them , while some animals are just really chill. I make sure that every animal i take care of doesnt have a place where they can potentially escapee, have food , keep all breakable things away, and make sure they are not chewing on anything that is dangerous.
“She showed up and Jaxx was immediately comfortable with her. She stayed till my daughter got back from school which was a few minutes before scheduled time because I was running a few minutes behind. She kept me updated throughout as well. As food as it gets for a sitter. Jaxx loved her. Highly recommended”

“Great experience! This is our second time booking Andrew to housesit. We can trust him to keep our elder dog safe and happy at our home. He’s very communicative; providing frequent updates and photos. He’s also courteous and respectful of our home. Couldn’t ask for a better pet/housesitter!”

“Monica was such a great sitter! Juice gets some anxiety when we leave him and she made him feel right at home! She was very diligent with Juice’s schedule and made sure he had enough play time and stimulation for his high energy personality.”

“We had an unexpected need for a dog sitter, and Rob stepped in without hesitation. From the moment we met him, he was incredibly receptive, knowledgeable, and immediately got along with our dogs. Managing five dogs is no small task, and Rob handled everything flawlessly. Despite the last-minute request, he was more than willing to help with little to no questions asked, which truly put our minds at ease during a stressful situation. Knowing Rob was at our home allowed us to focus on what we needed to without worrying about our dogs. He was communicative throughout the stay, sending updates and photos without us even needing to ask. When we returned home, everything was exactly as we had hoped—our house was spotless, and our dogs were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. We absolutely plan to use Rob again in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with both their pets and their home.”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was able to walk. My mom ethically bred Rottweilers and provided feral cat colonies socialization and food in Brooklyn since I was a kid. Growing up I worked in animal shelters to help breeds that were discriminated against to socialize them so that they can go to their fur-ever homes until after college. I fostered several cats while living in NY and have fostered and taken care of friends and family's pets since moving to Allentown. I like to provide the best environment to reduce stress and promote fun and healthy environments for all fur-babies who come through my home. I have extra toys, bowls, beds, and an extra large crate for those who are crate trained. I currently work full-time from home in IT and love taking frequent breaks to walk or sit on my patio to get away from my computer screen. I'm a single mom and we spend our weekends walking through the neighborhood and socializing with friends. For my kitty friends we have cat trees and enclosed spaces for them to get cozy and relaxed. For my doggy friends, my complex offers an enclosed dog area for free play and interaction with other dogs as well as nearby dog parks. All pets are welcomed on soft surfaces!

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.

We have used Monica more than once for house sitting in our home and she has been absolutely awesome! We even had an unexpected delivery which she handled without an issue. We will definitely ask her to watch our fir babies every time we need a sitter! Highly recommend!

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.

This was our first time using Rover and Daisy and Teddy enjoyed their time with Casey. We are pleased to have had Casey stay with our pets and we were able to relax on our trip, knowing that they were well cared for. We returned to a neat and tidy home. All instructions were followed as requested and we would definitely use Casey again.
