“Justin was amazing! I’m so grateful he took such great care of my baby Nittany. She’s on multiple seizure medications, so I needed someone truly reliable to give them on time, and Justin absolutely delivered. He even kept a close eye on her sneaky ways of trying to avoid them (not surprised, lol)! I would 100% book with Justin again and recommend him to everyone on this app. Thank you, Justin!”


“We felt so much more at ease knowing Rhonda was checking in on our newly adopted cat. She did a great job feeding him, sending us pictures, and answering all our many questions.”


About: Ever since I was a child, I have always owned pets of all sorts. Though, as I've grown older, I have made it my goal to provide them with the best care I can through extensive research and their own personal needs! I have cared for pocket pets such as rabbits, and currently I have a hefty pup of 130 pounds, and a senior kitty who is 18 that I have had since her birth! I am extremely flexible and I'd be more than happy to discuss your needs and figure out how to work you into my routine! I am available most hours of the day throughout the week and weekends as well! I care for pets within your home and am glad to abide by any rules you have and routines your pets or you like to follow! Feedings, walks, overnight stays and potty visits are all things I'm capable and willing to do!

“Rebecca was so nice and communicative! We reached out only a couple of days before we needed a dogsitter and Rebecca was willing to come meet our dogs beforehand so we knew they would all be comfortable. She was very comfortable with our 2 medium sized dogs and made sure they were well taken care of! She sent pictures when she was leaving and gave us updates as her visits were completed. We are happy to have her be a regular sitter for our girls.”

“Felicia did a great job checking in on our cat and loving on her while we were out of town. She checked in with us via text every day and sent us pictures. Would recommend her to others, she is a caring and professional sitter!”


About: I’ve grown up rescuing animals from unfortunate events my entire life. I currently have 6 cats and 3 dogs , all rescued. They range from 7 months - 9 years in age. I work Fulltime from home, 9-5 Monday - Friday with plenty of down time to help everyone with their littles !! I have plenty of free time to help with necessities. My cats are indoor / outdoor , so they get out just like my dogs. My cats stay out longer then my dogs. But my dogs get let out every 1-2 hours. Depending on their needs. My puppy is every hour because she’s young and my older dogs prefer every 2 hours.


“Kara was great to help with my best girl, Mavis. Communicative and flexible with us. Sent lots of pictures and helpful with minutes changes to Mavis’ eating routine. Would have her back anytime!”


About: Growing up from an early age my family and I have always had dogs and cats. The first dog I was around consistently was my grandmothers, Buddy. I loved her with all my heart as a child and followed her around constantly. When I was young I got my first cat Oscar. He was a calm but talkative orange tabby. My mother then got Adam to give Oscar a friend. My first dog I got from a local shelter, Lulu. Over the years I had a few more. A newfoundland Bernie who would wait patiently at the water bowl for the cats to be done. Norman, a black cat who had an old man meow. A German Shepard mix, Guthrie who was a ball of energy from day one, and 2 dachshund mixes, Joe and Axle who look completely different from each other but follow each other everywhere. After moving out of my mother's house eight years ago I slowly kept taking in cats, currently with four, Charles, Maddie, Dexter, and Luna. I firmly believe having pets to love is one of the best parts in life. I currently work full time on a split second/third shift job but am looking at schooling for a trade. I have three days off a week where I do most around the house and garden. Mornings and early afternoons are always available for me. I have a four foot high fenced in yard, chain link with a latch for any dogs I may be watching as well as tons of cat toys and a new 6 foot cat tree.

About: I’ve had dogs every since I was little. I currently don’t own any cause I just moved out of my parents and into my own home. I’ve cared for every age dog between puppies and seniors. Dogs are truly and mans best friend. I’m currently unemployed house wife living with my fiancé so I have plenty of time to take care of an animal. My schedule is very flexible to fit what’s best for you! I live in a two story home with my fiancé we have a fenced in yard and a park just right across the street. I also have custody of my 11 year old nephew who will give the dog plenty of love and affection as well.

About: Hi there! My name is Reg, and any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, I had my Scottish Terrier, my Chihuahua, my toy poodle, and my cat. I also helped my parents with the animals on our farm. We cared for chickens, ducks, pigs, and rabbits. From pet sitting, long or short walks, playing at the park, and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all! I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Our pups were rescued as well, with little training, so teaching them tricks was always a fun time! I am not currently working. Both my children will be going to school this year, so I will have some free time from the hours of 8 am and 4 pm to take care of all of your pet's needs! Follow the guidance the owner has given me. Carefully go over any special accomidations needed, and medications that may be needed, and ask questions if I dont understand. I like to stay in contact with the owner to give updates on their fur babies so that they know they are safe and happy.

About: Not only am I a mother of three furry friends, but I also take the time and effort to consider each pets needs based on their age, comfort level, and personality. Please don’t be worried that because I’m new to Rover I won’t be able to carry out good care. Caring for animals (even farm animals), has been something that’s been carried throughout my family. I will make sure your pet gets stimulated the way YOU want. Whether that’s walks or relaxation. Or whether that’s helping a puppy get adjusted to the leash correctly. I have passion for this field, as well as love for the animals. My average day consists of not only caring for myself, but my furry friends as well. Taking care of animals helps me get set up for my future career, (vet tech) as I’m currently enrolled in colleges courses. My pets travel with me, but when I’m assigned to others care I will occasionally leave them at home. When I’m at home, my babies get all of my attention and as many belly rubs as they want. Safety around animals is a huge component of sitting. I would not just trust anybody with my babies. Supervision 100% of the time I’m in charge of the furry friends. I never want to overstep an animals patience, so learning to trust and cater to the animal is something I’ve adapted to doing. When I’m at others homes, I always take into consideration each pets comfort levels and needs so I can make sure they’re taken care of as much as possible.

Summer W.
“Summer is great with pets. I have an elderly, cranky English bulldog who is beyond spoiled and Summer would take care of her while I was away. She would sometimes stay a week or more and was excellent with my pup's ridiculous demands and pharmacy of meds. Mrs. Hudson was always happy and healthy when I returned. She was always excited to see her friend Summer when it was time for me to go away. In fact, now that we have moved, my dog is just a little less happy with any other sitter. You can be sure that your pets will be well taken care of and even a bit spoiled when you can't be there. I know how hard it is to trust someone with your furry family members but don't hesitate on contacting her. Your pups (or kitties) will be in great hands.”
