House Sitting in Ben Avon

“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.”

“Brianna was fantastic! She stayed in my home from Thursday until Sunday to watch my nine-year-old Vizsla and three year-old cat. Not only was she extremely responsive, but proactive about communication as well! She sent photos and kept me informed of things going on at my house like bad weather that caused a power outage and my lawn care company coming to cut the grass. She also kept my home extremely clean during her stay, honestly going above and beyond in several ways! My dog can be quite needy, and Brianna was not phased by that. She made me feel very comfortable about trusting her in my home and with my animals, which says a lot about her professionalism and level of care. While I would love to gate keep her so she is available whenever I need her, I figure she needs more than 1 “regular.” 10/10 highly recommend!”

“I usually use Rover's boarding option, however, I wasn't able to find anyone in close proximity during this busy summer. With this being my first time using the house sitting service, I was nervous about leaving my dog and opening my home to someone I had just barely met. However, Mahle made this experience less stressful. We established a meet and greet a few days after I initially requested the days I needed a sitter for my dog. She responded promptly to my messages and showed up right on time. She was friendly, interacted and played with Koa as we discussed Koa's schedule and personality. When we were away, I did have to message her to see how everything was going and she responded quickly with updates of my dog and a picture. She was very respectful of my property and most importantly I came home to a happy dog. I feel more at ease using this Rover option and will definitely ask Mahle if she can sit for my dog in the future. Thank you, Mahle!!”

“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!”

“We booked Bri to watch our 6 year old doodle for the weekend while staying in the house overnight. She did an amazing job and far exceeded our expectations. We could tell Cooper had a good time and really got along with Bri. She sent us updates in the morning, day, night with lots of pictures and details. She not only left our house in good order once leaving, but also cleaned the house. We will for sure be booking Bri in the future and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”

“Heather took great care of my 2 fur babies. I was able to enjoy my first family vacation in years because she made me so comfortable with the care she gave them. She sent pictures everyday and kept me updated in all of their activities. She will be my Rover go to for future trips.”

About: Because I’m in medical school I have a unique perspective on pet care in the sense that I am calm, thorough, and empathetic! I also have a dog of my own with medical needs so I am equipped to care for any pet. I’ve had large dogs, small, dogs, cats, and fish all my life and I would love to help care for your pets too:) I’m currently in medical school so my schedule varies during the weekdays (which I will frequently update) but I can come swing by to take on walks, check-ins, or house-sit. I have most weekends free as well. I am experienced in caring for food aggressive pets, dog-aggressive pets, as well as medically needy pets. I can take large dogs 100+ lbs on leashed walks as well as play in yards with them. I love animals and I know how to keep everyone safe and happy:)

“Stellar! Sydney took very great care of my two dogs, including the diabetes dog/shots on while staying in my home while I was away! She communicated with me daily-even sent cute pics! House was just the way I left it! Great communication! Very capable young woman! Definitely booking her again, and gives me a lot more freedom knowing that I can trust someone with my pets!”

About: Howzit 🤙 I’m excited to shower your pets with love! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, always treating them like family—with patience, consistency, and plenty of love. Over the years, I’ve built real-life experience from long walks, silly play sessions, cozy couch naps, and learning the little quirks that make each pet one-of-a-kind. Whether it’s boarding, daycare, or house sitting, my goal is simple: to make your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for—just like they’re at home. Because when your pets are with me, they’re family too. 🐾 I work full time from home Monday thru Friday, with weekends typically spent at the dog park, hiking, or camping (with my doggies). Pet care isn’t just a task in my day—it’s part of my rhythm. I start and end my days with walks, play, and feeding routines, and I naturally build in time for snuggles, potty breaks, and play sessions throughout the day. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I keep a flexible schedule so I can give your pets the attention they deserve. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily life, so fitting your pets into my routine feels like second nature. Whether your pets are with me in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, the routine is built around comfort, safety, and fun. That means sticking to their feeding schedules, giving them the right balance of exercise and play, and making time for cuddles and rest. I treat your pets—and your home—with the same care and respect I give my own.

“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.”

About: I work from home so this allows me to give a lot of time and care to your pup. I am happy to take your pup along with me on my multiple walks per day and play in the yard. My son and I take a lot of joy out of hosting dogs and have so much fun with our Rover guests! Please note the dogs in our pictures do not reside with us and will not be present in our home when we have puppy guests. We only host one guest at a time (unless it’s a family pair). We would love to host your pup if it is house trained, friendly to all humans and other dogs, and does not have any history of aggression, separation anxiety or destructive / behavioral issues as we would not be equipped to handle. Meet and greet prior to boarding is our request to ensure a great experience for all. Thank you in advance for your transparency on these requirements! I work from home and am an avid walker, plenty of availability. Your dog would not be left alone for more than a few hours when I have to run out for errands or appointments. I’m a homebody! I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood in the north hills with flat, easy loops for walking. I also have a fenced in, flat backyard that dogs love to play in. I have a 12 year old son who loves dogs and will gladly play with your pup.

“I was so comfortable leaving Reina with Serena, she sent pictures everyday to ensure that she was happy. I highly recommend and will be using her in the future.”

“Tessa was great with our boys while we were away. She communicated everything really well with us and sent us daily update pictures. Will definitely be using her again next time we are going out of town.”

“Katelyn did a great job house sitting for our three cats and one dog! We got frequent updates and pictures. The house was left as clean as we had left it. She really put us at ease while we were out of town!”

About: Hello! My name is Jasmine and I live on the North Shore. I have a lot of pet care experience as I've grown up with dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, guinea pigs-you name it-for most of my life. I have an unparalleled amount of energy as a person, so being with pets is a perfect match. I love physical activity, so whether it’s going for a walk or throwing the ball, it all works for me. Some of my favorite activities to do with pets include going to the dog park, playing fetch (with dogs or cats), darting a laser light around the room, playing hide and seek with cats, watching the cars drive by (very intriguing), and anything else your pet loves to do. Even if that means just simply relaxing and soaking up the sun. Whatever pace your pet prefers is the one I will adapt. All in all, working and playing with your animals will be the highlight of my day! I currently have a minimum workload, so I will likely be available at any time of your convenience. I can work in the mornings, midday, and evenings if necessary. This includes weekend availability as well. Depending on what service you’re looking for, I can easily get your pet suited up for a walk, any medication necessary, feeding, crating, cleaning litter-boxes or cages, snuggling, treats…

“Nikki was amazing!! I have a small farm without a farm, haha. All five of my animals really liked her. Even the super shy one. Nikki sent pictures and daily updates. Highly recommend and will absolutely use her again!! Thank you!”

Megan L.

“Portia was fantastic. She provided continuous updates and even stayed with Waylon longer than requested. She responded instantly the entire weekend and even let me know there was a tornado warning and asked if there was anything else she needed to do because of the weather. She was great to work with and was very flexible and organized with her scheduling. I would highly recommend Portia and will be using her again.”

Michael L.

“We needed a sitter last minute. Taylor was great! She followed all instruction perfectly. Was great with communications and pics. The house and animals we very happy when we got home.”

Joe M.

“We absolutely loved Sarah! She cared for our pats as if they were her own. She sent pictures and updates often. We never had anyone stay at our home during a vacation or pet sit and she made us feel very comfortable about it. Things were in order and clean when we got home. 10/10 would definitely rebook and recommend!”

Alexandria

“Kristen was great! She took care of my pup through some rough storms and helped keep her calm. Communicated with some cute pics as well. Also took the trash out when she was done with house sitting which she didn’t need to do! Would definitely recommend her :)”
