“Kat has stayed with our pets while we were on vacation, now for the second time. She’s been great both times and we could not recommend her more! Kat will always be our first choice in pet sitters, she gives updates and sends pictures and takes such good care of our animals!”

About: Hi my name is Katrina, or Kat for short. I truly have a passion and heart for animals! As a teen i started pet sitting and knew I wanted to always work with animals so as an adult I went to school for dog grooming. I was a pet sylist for 15 year with my own shop but had to retire due to injuries and health. I have a lot of experience, patience and care with many types of dogs and animals. I did schooling for dog psychology and training methods and continue to further my education. I also have two dogs, a westie and a pittie rescue mix, three cats and several reptiles so i'm always surrounded by animals which I love! I do also have experience with rescue work, raising bottle fed kittens. ♡ I have studied dog behavior and believe in using positive reinforcements and redirecting. I am able to do short training sessions focused on mental stimulation. If you have topples or puzzle toys i can provide your pup with that as well. ♡ I am cpr trained and am able to give medication. ♡ I will meet your dogs needs wether it be mental stimulation with fun games, a short walk or just hanging out together. ♡ I will provide photos as well updates if requested ♡ I will refresh water bowls, do feedings, take out for potty time or scoop litter. ♡ I will respect your home, time and privacy and provide your pet(s) with the utmost care and attention. I am pretty flexible, i'm avaialble during weekdays as well as every other sunday. I will keep my times available updated on the calender here at rover. I am able to feed your animals, take them out to potty, short walks as well as spend time giving them attention and play with them.

“I wanted to share my positive experience with Caylin. She took excellent care of our cats while we were on vacation. We really appreciated her attentiveness and the fact that she sent multiple pictures each day, which truly gave us peace of mind while we were away. We also encountered a travel delay, and she was very flexible and accommodating, which was incredibly helpful. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

About: I have been rescuing dogs and cats for the last 25 years with my husbands help. I love cuddling and loving on just about any animal. As of right now I have a Rottie/English Mastiff rescue named Demo and a calico rescue named MoMo. I frequently sit my granddog Kaito who is a Shepherd/Pyrenees. We briefly tried to live without animals and quickly realized that's no life to live. Pets have a special kind of love and affection you can't find anywhere else. I am currently working less than part time and my schedule is fairly flexible. I can fill in as needed usually with a few hours notice but do prefer at least 24 hours I cannot host any pets at my home as we are still not sure if my dog is reactive. I am more than willing to attend to your pet in whatever fashion you request in your home within reason.

“Marlena stayed at our house for a week watching our 2 dogs and 2 cats. I couldn't be happier with her service and professionalism. It's exciting to discover a sitter you can trust and that your animals love! While they were happy to see us come home - our furs really missed Marlena when she left.”

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, and birds, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs, whether your pet has feathers, fur, or scales. I specialize in senior pet care, puppy & kitten care, and even exotic pets. I was honored with an award on my Vet Science Team, and I'm currently a psychology major with a biology minor at Millersville University. I combine empathy, reliability, and science-backed insight to give your pet personalized, compassionate care while you're away. Your pet becomes a part of my family. I'm currently a college student on summer break, which means my schedule is wide open for pet sitting, drop-ins, and extended stays. With plenty of time and flexibility, I can give your pet all the attention, playtime, and care they deserve, whenever you need it. Your home and your pet’s well-being are my top priorities. I treat every client’s space with the same care and respect I would my own, clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I’m dependable, communicative, and take professionalism seriously, whether I'm doing a quick drop-in or an extended stay. You can count on me to follow instructions with an attention to detail, maintain a calm and safe environment, and provide regular updates so you feel confident and at ease while you're away.

About: Our dog children deserve the best of my experience as a trainer, caregiver and animal lovers will give you safety, I care for my dog angels like mine because they are my happiness therapy. I have plenty of time to play and exercise for your best friend and free him from the strees of confinement on Sundays, fully available or during the week, your comfort is my priority. I have a fenced garden and a beautiful park next to my house and I can take care of it in your house for your safety and confidence. I know many games that puppy and senior dogs like.

About: I have been around animals all of my life, from cats and dogs to horses and cows. I love walking and hiking, and would be happy to have your pet come along, if that is ok with you. I am a teacher so my schedule is pretty flexible over the summer. I can board your pet during the school year if needed, especially on the weekends. I live on almost an acre of property that is not fenced in. I live 1.5 miles east of Lampeter-Strasburg High School. I am 1 to 2 miles away from walking trails. I do have one cat and two daughters 10 and 13.

“Daniel did an excellent job with my dog and guinea pigs who were happy and at ease upon my return.”

About: Since 2014, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and pawsonalities — from shy kittens to spicy dogs, plus chickens, bunnies, and even a hermit crab. 🐶🐱🐔🐰🐟 Fostering over 200 pets has made me fluent in body language (pet edition). Whether your pet wants snuggles, space, or serious playtime, I tailor each visit to what makes them happiest. I’m comfortable giving medications and teaching basic obedience. I also make the experience great for you! I’m a reliable communicator, send plenty of cute pics, and if your pet’s up for it, you’ll come home to a handmade surprise “from your pet.” Pet care fits naturally into my routine — it’s something I genuinely enjoy! I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends, with a flexible schedule that allows me to adapt as needed. I am able to care for about a dozen pets per week and I only book one house-sitting family at a time to ensure each pet gets my full attention. Walks and drop-ins can easily be added into my day, especially Monday through Friday. Pet care is both relaxing and rewarding for me — I love building relationships with the pets I visit, and I think they look forward to our time together just as much as I do! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, starting by learning their pet’s established routine to ensure they feel comfy and happy. I gather all the important info — like vet contacts, emergency numbers, and where cleaning supplies live (just in case!). I’m a tidy sitter too: I take out the trash and scoop up any yard “presents” to keep things fresh. Most importantly, I listen closely to both owner and pet to discover what makes each furry friend feel safe and loved, then tailor my care to their unique personality.

“Felt completely comfortable leaving my guy with Kelsie for the long weekend. Came home to a happy pup, no issues. Would definitely recommend and book again!”

“After moving to a new town, it was important to us to find a pet sitter we can trust. After searching around town and meeting a few people, Foxy was the obvious choice. Our dog, who is generally afraid and reactive upon first meeting people and dogs, was comfortable with her immediately. She was gentle with him and had a calming/reassuring tone. We were nervous about booking, but she instilled confidence that we could go away without worry. Throughout our trip, she sent pictures and communicated their adventures every day. Where normally when we come home Prince acts like we abandoned him, this time he was just happy to see us. It was like he genuinely had an enjoyable visit with Foxy. She did what she said she would do and more. We will absolutely use her again!”

“I was very pleased with the care Madison provided to Dillon. She followed the time schedule. She understood his allergy problems. She kept me informed with Dillon's activity. I know Dillon will look forward to having Madison visit again”

“Ivy watched my dog Lenny for 3.5 days and did an incredible job. It was my first time using ivy and rover and I would not hesitant to use her again. Very prompt and communicative!”

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs my entire life. From training crazy puppies, to walking very large dogs that pull, to administering medication to senior citizens, I have handled it all. I also have a 5-yr old indoor cat and have lived with multiple cats for years, so anything your feline friends need will be well-taken care of. I keep my calendar updated & am usually free for Rover visits when not at my part time job 2-3 days/week! I will always follow up ASAP to confirm availability for your desired dates/times. I have a large backyard that my friendly, medium-sized dog Diana loves to play and hang out in. There is ample space indoors and everything is pet-proof. Indoor kitties (like ours) are always watched carefully when opening and closing doors.
