“CK was great with my dog and cat, and very communicative! He was even able to come back and check on the animals later than planned when we were delayed coming home. Would definitely book again!”
“It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience! Ericka sent regular pics and updates. When we got home our dog was happy and content. When we’ve had to use something more like daycare in the past, he just gets really stressed and barely eats. We will be using rover again in the future for sure.”
“We loved having Mariah dog sit for us! She took the time to come by and meet Bruno before the scheduled date which is always so helpful. She sent lots of updates and pictures and even helped clean up the guest room after her stay. I could tell Bruno was so comfortable with her and he enjoyed having her around. I hope to work with Mariah again soon!”

About: For the past two years, I've had the pleasure of pet sitting for family members, treating their pets like they’re my own. Growing up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, I've been around them my whole life and have cared for them through all stages — from playful puppies to loving senior dogs. I love going the extra mile by helping with things like fetching the mail or taking out the trash, so your home is just as you left it when you return. Your pets will feel safe, loved, and cared for in my hands! I’m currently working part-time and studying to return to the healthcare field, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate time to caring for your pets. I’m available every day of the week and can adjust my schedule to fit your pet care needs! I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own because I know how important it is to have someone who is caring, compassionate, trustworthy, and reliable looking after your fur babies. Whether it’s a drop-in visit or house sitting, I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, watering, and giving medications. I make sure to take pets on daily walks (weather permitting and based on their age and abilities), and I engage in playtime every day to keep them happy. I always respect the owner’s home, leaving it exactly as it was, and I’m happy to assist with tasks like fetching the mail or taking out the trash.
About: I have 4 dogs and have taken care of 2 of them since they were puppies. I got my first dog in 5th grade as a gift and it was my responsibility to take care of her. Then I got my second dog when I was in 9th grade and I have taken care of both of them since. I take care of my dogs daily by feeding them, taking them out, and for walks. I also play with them and make sure that they have what they need. I am able to accommodate for what each dog and their owner needs and I can let them out or take them on walks if needed.
“Sent pictures, followed instructions, my animals and my house have little particulars that she listened to well, too! My house was clean, animals were well taken care of and happy when I got back ❤️ Would recommend Cayla and will use again! Thanks again.”
“Everything was just great!!! Really appreciate the care for Penelope!! 😀👍❤️”
“Emmaline was so thoughtful and on top of things! We had a last minute booking that she was able to make work which we really appreciated. House was left in great shape and we know our pup was well cared for. Already looking forward to our next booking!”
“Sydney has taken care of my two, high energy boys twice now and has done an amazing job! She sends updates and pictures daily, lets me know if anything out of the ordinary happens, and is very responsive. She cleaned and left my house just the way I'd left it. She also stuck with the dogs' routine and training, which is so helpful. I love that she spends so much time with them, and also seems to really appreciate their quirky personalities! They were happy and relaxed when I got home. It's so nice to know I can trust Sydney to take such wonderful care of them!”

She cares for my cat the way I would which has been hard to find with other sitters. I would 100% recommend Allison for your sitting needs!”

Allentown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Natalie was great with my senior dog. Being my only “child” combined with her age and some health issues I am very detailed with my instructions and Natalie handled it all with grace. She provided the perfect amount of communication along with pictures each day. Our flight home was cancelled and Natalie immediately offered to help by staying overnight again if need be. That was such a relief that my dog would be cared for when it was uncertain when we’d be home. Would love to book Natalie again!
Sarah was absolutely wonderful with our sweet staffy Violet while we were away for a few days. She provided updates daily with photos of a very happy and well taken care of dog. Couldn't be happier and will absolutely invite her back into our home again.
Maddi was awesome to have watch our senior pups! She was so thorough and kind and I felt very quickly at ease with our dogs in her care. Would highly recommend anyone considering care for their fur babes to book with her and I personally hope to have her again with our pups the next time we need a sitter!
Laura is wonderful. Very responsive -- loves a good walk with Stella -- and very flexible. Love working with Laura (and Stella loves when she visits, too!)
CK was great with our two adorable, but anxious pups while we were away. He took lots of pictures and sent us updates. Would highly recommend and would book again!
Maya was extremely responsible and a great caretaker for our pups! She communicated extremely well and left our house like no one had ever been there! I can’t recommend her enough!
Jessica was great with our furry kids. Our 2 Cavaliers and our cat were well taken care of and we would definitely use her again.
Jenna was able to watch my dogs in under two weeks notice and was very attentive to the notes I left her. She gave my dogs lots of attention and kept me updated with pictures the whole time. I highly recommend Jenna and would definitely book in the future!
Emmaline was truly a stellar dog sitter! She gave us such detailed reports on how our pup was doing throughout the week, provided ample photos or them hanging out and relaxing together, and I would recommend her to anyone who wants to know their pup is well loved.
Gretchen always does a wonderful job for my boy Comet! She takes great care of him and he's always happy to have a weekend with her when we need a little help from a sitter 😊
Our dog has special needs. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing that she was in competent and loving hands
Chelsea was absolutely outstanding! She was incredibly responsive, punctual, kind, and professional. She even came for a meet-and-greet to help our pup feel comfortable and stayed longer than scheduled to ensure she was okay. Flexible, caring, and clearly passionate—highly recommend!
Emma has been amazing! We have used her numerous times and will continue to do so! She is prompt, always sends updates and is amazing with sending pictures! I have zero anxiety being out of town when Emma is around (which is hard when you love your pets so much!) highly recommend her services!!
Katelyn was AMAZING! It was our first time doing an in home sit but she was so accommodating with coming to meet them first and get comfortable around them. They warmed up to her immediately and were snuggled up to her the whole time. She sent frequent updates and was so quick with her responses. We will deff be using her again!! Thank you Katelyn :)
Malik was awesome! He went above and beyond to watch our dog and home while we were away for the week. Pablo had a great time and we could tell he was happy while we were gone. Even though he’s high need and has lots of health issues, Malik took care of him so well that even with the stress of us being away, Pablo’s ailments continued to improve. Don’t hesitate to book with Malik!
Alyssa was such a great cat sitter! Our cat has a weird medicine routine, and Alyssa was able to help us out. Not only that, but we even learned new techniques on how to administer meds from her! While we were away, Alyssa was communicative and always sending cutie pics of our sweet girl. Would highly recommend!
Sydney was a great sitter. Our dog was well cared for and happy and healthy when we returned. Sydney’s communication was excellent, continually keeping us informed on our dog’s day and any issues or concerns that arose. I will happily book again in the future!
Lia did a fantastic job taking care of my pets! She was very kind and spent tons of time with them. I was very pleased with her work and she went above and beyond what was asked.
Lindsay took great care of our senior cat while staying at our house overnight. She left the house spotless and was great at communication. Would absolutely recommend!
Kwame was great! He was communicative and friendly! He takes his responsibilities seriously, which was evident in the questions he asked, and how he made sure we were on the same page about the window of time he would take our dog on a walk. He kept us updated and took great care of our dog. Thank you so much Kwame, we'll definitely reach out again when we go out of town.
