“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.”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the start, Katherine was incredibly attentive—asking all the right questions and making sure every detail of our dog’s routine was followed perfectly. Our home was left spotless, and it was clear how thoughtful Katherine was in every aspect of the stay. We came back to a happy, well-cared-for dog and even a few sweet updates while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommend!”


“Kat is amazing and our dog Fergus loves her. This was her first overnight visit And everything went perfect and Fergus did so well. We will definitely use Kat again. 🩷”


“Deborah watched our girls NYE. She was very responsive and provided a good number of updates. Highly recommend her, we know we will definitely use her for any future sitting needs!”


“Trisha was AMAZING! She stayed for a week with my 14 y/o dog and two cats. She sent me updates with photos throughout the day, was able to give my dog his medicine and was so attentive with playing with them. I highly recommend and would absolutely book her again.”


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.

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.

About: I treat every pet like family—providing dependable care, belly rubs, and happy tails. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first with me! Book with me for reliable service :) I’m currently working part time - so I have plenty of flexible time to give your pet the care it deserves and needs. :) Let me know what schedule you need and I will make it happen! Safety and trust come first. I’m respectful of your space and treat your pet and home like my own—always gentle, dependable, and focused on what matters most.

“Kailyn has stayed and watched my three goldens and kitty on two occasions now. She took care of my fur babies and our home like they were her own. She is so kind and considerate with her communication and we will certainly use her services again. We would certainly recommend her to anyone on the hunt for someone to help out and take care of any of your pets!!!”


About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals from dogs, cats, horses, goats, reptiles and more! My entire life has revolved around animals, from owning 2 horses and 3 cats currently and previously dogs as well. Ive got a pretty flexible schedule with having my own business currently just mostly unavailable on weekends. I am always available midday during the week I always devote my full attention to the care of the animals, giving them all the personalized care and love that they could want :)

About: Pups within my care are ensured to be well cared for and happy waggers! Many people like to walk dogs as a way to pass time but for me caring for pets and making sure they get all the help and care that they need are essential to my day to day! I have several years experience in pet sitting, from day to day walks and exercise, to keeping company and helping with food and medical tasks! I am a college student who loves animals and am looking to give some pups some exceptional care! Caring for dogs is my passion and now that i have even more time to give i would like to lend a hand in pet sitting! I am available for Check-in, walking and feeding services! And although i have some time off as of current, even while in classes I am able to do on-going part time care routines! I am able to feed, walk, bathe, and play with your pup! If your pup has a set schedule I am able to work with it and ensure that your pup is safe and healthy and happy! I never like to leave a client dissatisfied with my care so each pup gets their own unique play and care schedule that changes up each day so that it doesn't feel repetitive for them! It can be stressful having to leave your pup with someone new but I always ensure that you will be updated at every moment to know how your fur-baby is doing!

About: I have cared for dogs for over thirty years. I have experience with many different breeds of many different sizes and temperament. I have been dog parents to the following breeds: Fox Hound, Pug, Great Dane, Mastiff, English Bulldog, American Bully. I have also volunteered at local shelter. I am currently a High School teacher at a district in Chester County. My summer availability is quite flexible. Availability during the school year would be more limited. Can be adaptable to any routine that works best in the client's home. I can provide service to whatever setting - fenced in yard, not fenced in, urban, suburban, rural setting.

“Lauren took such good care of our senior golden retriever, Boh, while we were away for several days. We came home to a squeaky clean home and a very happy boy. Will definitely contact Lauren again for future sitting needs, highly recommend her!”


About: I’ve had experience with a yellow lab growing up and raising my Shiba Inu, Maverick. Many may say that I attract dogs and I will do anything to make sure they are living their best, healthy, fun life! As a teacher, I have the summer off so I am able to watch dogs, check in, and go on walks. I have the friendliest Shiba Inu, Maverick who is always looking for a new friend! I have a doggy-door and fenced in yard for your pet to play in if boarded! In your home, I will be sure to comfort your dog with their preferences.

About: offer a safe, caring, and fun environment where your dog will be treated like family. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or walks, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels right at home! I'm available most weekdays and weekends for dog boarding. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most days. Just reach out—I'd love to care for your pup! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and calm environment where your pup can relax and feel at home. I treat every dog like my own—with love, patience, and close attention to their needs. You can trust they'll be in safe, caring hands!


“Lucilla was amazing! She accommodated a very last minute holiday request for a dog who isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. She met him so we could make sure it was a comfortable match and then was able to watch him the very next day. While away, she let me know how he was doing, cuddled him up and showed him lots of love. Definitely book her if she’s free!! P.S she cleaned up around the house and took care with our home. AMAZING”
