We're grateful we found Stephen! He came to our hotel to pet sit, putting our dog immediately at ease. By the time we got back, they were best buds. Highly, 100% recommend.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs and cats, and now having two rescue dogs of my own, I just can't imagine life without them. I haven't used Rover before, but I've spent years watching friends' dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I've raised puppies, cared for kittens, and even handled medications when needed, so I'm no stranger to what animals need to feel safe and loved. I come to your home so your babies can stay in their own space, in their own routine. Every animal is different and I take the time to get to know them. Big or small, they all get the same gentle, attentive care. I just genuinely love animals, and that's something you'll see the moment I meet your pet. I'm always happy to set up a meet-up before booking so we can connect, your pet can get comfortable with me, and we can make sure it feels like the right fit for everyone I recently graduated from Arcadia University with my Master's in Physician Assistant Studies. While I study for my boards and prepare to move back home to Washington, I have time on my hands and want to spend it doing something I truly enjoy. Right now my days are completely open, which means your dog gets my full attention. No rushing off, no squeezing them in between a busy schedule. I'm there as long as they need me. As the mom of two very needy rescue dogs, I completely understand wanting your babies to have someone around as much as possible, and right now, I'm in a position to give exactly that! Since I will be in your home, my first priority is to respect whatever routine and rules you have in place for your pet. I am happy to provide as much or as little entertainment, snuggles, or space as your fur baby needs. When it comes to walks, I'm no stranger to dogs that pull on the leash or get reactive around other dogs. I've handled strong, reactive animals before and I feel confident and calm managing them.

Jen and Matt are the best! It was our first week away with an in-home sitter. They went above and beyond in every way. They took in the mail and trash cans, brought Ellie special treats, and even fed the fish! We are so grateful for their kindness. Thanks for being accountable. I didn’t worry once the entire trip!

About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for pets for years, including raising my own dog since he was a puppy. I’m very involved in his daily care, including feeding, walks, routines, giving lots of attention, and helping manage medical needs when needed. Because of this, I understand how important patience, consistency, and trust are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m also very comfortable with cats and enjoy spending time with different personalities, whether they’re playful, shy, energetic, or need extra comfort and care. I’ll always treat pets like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I recently graduated high school and will be starting college soon, so I have a very open and flexible schedule this summer! I do work part-time, but outside of my work schedule I’m available most days and have plenty of time to give pets attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. Since I don’t have many major summer plans, I’m happy to be flexible and work around your pet’s needs and routine. Since I will be caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to help them feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible by sticking to their normal routine. I’m very attentive to instructions and will make sure your pet gets the care, attention, exercise, feeding, potty breaks, and affection they need while you’re away. I also have hands-on experience with crate training through my own dog, who is crate trained and comfortably sleeps in his crate when prompted. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and making pets feel secure in their environment. I will always treat your home and pets with respect and care as if they were my own.

Kevin was excellent. We highly recommend him. He took great care of our two dogs and of the house. It was very easy to tell how much he cared about the dogs and how much they cared about him. He communicated very well throughout the whole process. We will absolutely use Kevin's services again in the future whenever we are traveling and able. He made us feel perfectly comfortable that our dogs would be well cared for, and it was apparent they were upon our return.

Taylor was amazing. I went away for the weekend and have literally never left my dog without anyone but family before. I was so nervous. But Taylor came over for a meet and great before and gave me complete confidence. I was able to enjoy my weekend without worrying about my dog or what was going on at home. She even got my pup out of the apartment when the fire alarm suddenly went off! So sad she is leaving the area after graduation or I would definitely book her again!

Our fur babies loved her! Julia stayed at our house for a week to watch our two dogs and cat. We did a meet and greet in our home about a month prior to our trip and immediately knew that she would be perfect. We also felt that we could trust her and liked that she was thorough and asked many questions. We will definitely be asking her to pet sit for us again and would highly recommend her to anyone in our area.

This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone outside of my family for a trip. I and my pups (especially Papas) were nervous. However, Rachel was super understanding and patient! She consistently communicated throughout the entire process. Eventually my pups were feeling more comfortable which was super helpful as I had multiple flights canceled due to a snow storm. Thankfully, Rachel was gracious enough to extend her stay! I felt such an ease of mind knowing that my animals were safe and sound with her especially during a snow storm. Would definitely recommend and utilize again!

Matthew took good care of our very large, reactive dog while we were away. He sent us photos daily and was good at communicating if he had any questions. We will definitely be asking Matthew to watch our pup next time we go away.

About: Hi my name is Rachel i’m 21 years old looking for pet owners who need pet assistance. I’m currently studying business at del tech community college and i’m a third year. I have babysat dogs and cats before and overnight sat as well. I enjoy being around animals they make me happy. I also own a doggie named Teddy of my own he’s 6 years old and he’s a shitzu. Caring for a pet requires consistency, time management, and attention to their physical and emotional needs. Depending on the type of pet, daily tasks may include feeding, providing fresh water, exercising, grooming, cleaning living spaces, and monitoring health and behavior. I walk my dog Teddy, a shitzu everyday twice and he doesn’t have an open yard. Caring for pets at a clients home depend on the space and environment.

About: I have 4 little dogs that I’ve helped to take care of since I was little! This includes being left at home for full weekends making sure they are fed, medicated, let outside, and of course loved! I also have some experience with taking care of cats although I’ve only ever had barn cats. There are a few weeks during the summer that I wouldn’t be able to do. These would be June 1st, June 22-June 26, June 29-July 10, and July 13-July 24. Other than that I can start as soon as May 25! I’m very friendly with animals and would be fine with feeding, walking, bathing, medicating, etc. All I ask for is detailed instructions of what to do!

We had Elizabeth watch our 2 dogs for 2 weeks and she was fabulous. Elizabeth stayed in contact with us on a daily basis and sent us pictures of our babies. She took such good care of them when we came home they were not stressed at all and we’re happy to see us. I would definitely use Elizabeth in the future. I cannot say enough about the Care she gave our pups.

Maiya took excellent care of the pets and the house while we were on a week long vacation! She sent plenty of update photos and videos to let us know everything was going well. She took great care of our pup, including taking her out to the local park for a nice outing. I can tell she kept our dog so busy, she barely had time to miss us! She kept the house very clean (probably better than we left it) - I would absolutely have Maiya house/pet sit for us again!
