About: Grew up with dogs in the family. A collie and a husky. Currently have a beagle that is 6 years old. Had her since she was 9 weeks old. We walk every day. Care is a high consideration on very cold days as well as hot and humid summer afternoons. I don't work during the summer months. Have time to care for a pet for someone or a family who needs help so they can plan a vacation or time away. Or for those who have a demanding time schedule. I only have one pet, dog, in the house. A fenced in yard and a wireframe crate that is 2 feet x 3 feet and about 2 - 2.5 feet high.

About: I’ve had pets since I was 5. I’ve always been in charge of their wellbeing. I currently have 4 pets so handling a couple more fur babies isn’t a problem for me. Either they’re big or small. I’ll treat them as my own. I currently am not working so I will be with your fur baby 24/7. I am very strict with feeding times, potty breaks and play time. I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to run. I also live a block away from the park so a nice walk would be able to happen as well. My family has a total of 4 cats and three dogs but not to worry all dogs are very friendly and I will be there at all times during interaction if anything where to happen. Our cats are super chill too they don’t want nothing to do with our dogs or humans.

About: I have a boxer of my own and no one or anything else gets better treatment them him. I love animals as much as you can and treat each like my own. I enjoy playing/walking them as much as they do. You will never hear me complaining about any animals! Ive had 2 dogs of my own and also watched both my sisters dogs. In the past I have volunteered at PAWS animal rescue when they were located in petsmart and also have watched multiple dogs in my neighborhood . All consisting of walks, feeding, medication, baths, overnight stays, weekends and weekdays. I enjoy my time with animals and like i said before treat them like my own and trust me i treat my boy like a prince! Officially Active Thanks! I'm currently self employed and have very flexible with times and can set my own hours. Always open for new clients! Easy to maneuver my time. I always treat dogs as they are my own and follow any guidelines ive been told. ETC keep dog on a leash at all times
About: My whole life I grew up around animals. We had many dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. I had dogs from 5 pounds to 100 pounds. I’ve had chihuahuas, Shepherds, mastiffs, and Rottweilers. We also had guinea pigs and rabbits. I was taking care of my dogs and animals at a young age. I was also around a police dog growing up, so I knew at a young age how to be calm and gentle. I’ve had puppies to seniors who I’ve had to put down. I’ve been around dogs who are very protective of their food and their belongings. I’ve also been around dogs who have needed to stay separated because of them not getting along. I’ve taken my friends dogs to vets before. I also have two cats so I am completely okay with them as well. I own a 60 pound German Shepherd who Is very friendly towards my cats. I am in the middle of training him. He is a puller when we go on walks, so I do have experience with strong animals. I am not a picky person at all, so if your animal has any sort of disorder or illness, I will not judge nor mind at all. I am also very flexible with anything, so if you have any certain requests, please feel free to ask! I currently take care of family & friends animals on the side! They all are super satisfied with my work! I had one client who continued to book me outside of this app, it was easier for her & I watched her kitties at a 2 year duration! I am able to play with high energy animals, along with just chilling on the couch if they like to snuggle or need to sleep

About: I have over a decade of practical, hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, having been raised in a multi-pet household. This lifelong exposure has provided me with a strong foundational understanding of animal behavior, dietary routines, and socialization needs across different life stages.In addition to caring for my own pets, I serve as the primary point of contact for family and friends requiring reliable pet sitting and drop-in services. I am adept at maintaining established care schedules, administering precise feeding routines, and ensuring a safe environment for all animals in my care. My approach is structured, reliable, and focused on maintaining the safety and well-being of your pets while providing clear communication to owners. As a graduate student with a highly flexible, hybrid academic schedule, I am at home for the majority of the day. This routine allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily workflow, ensuring that animals in my care receive consistent attention, timely potty breaks, and structured exercise.Rather than balancing a traditional 9-to-5 job, my routine is anchored around my studies, which I complete from my home workspace. This environment is ideal for pet sitting, as it allows me to maintain a quiet, predictable atmosphere for anxious pets while remaining fully available to accommodate midday dog walks, specific feeding schedules, and routine drop-in windows without conflicts. My drop-in visits and dog walking services are structured entirely around maintaining your pet's safety, comfort, and established routine within their familiar environment. During drop-ins, I precisely follow all feeding guidelines, refresh water, manage cat litter boxes, and provide focused socialization, concluding each visit with a secure home check and a detailed Rover Card update with photos. For neighborhood walks, I utilize your preferred secure gear to ensure safe handling, pacing the exercise strictly to your dog's age and stamina while maintaining high situational awareness. Before concluding my service, I ensure your pet is wiped down, rehydrated, and comfortably settled back into your home.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life and truly adore them all. Whether they are big, small, furry, or fluffy! I’m experienced and comfortable with both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I share my home with one sweet standard poodle and two lovable cats who are my whole heart. Whether it’s dog walking, drop in visits, or house sitting, I’m here to provide your pet with lots of love, care, and attention like they are my own! I am a college student and have a remote internship this summer so my schedule is flexible. I am comfortable with early mornings as well as late nights. Whether it’s in my home or yours, my goal is to make your pets as comfortable and happy as possible. I will follow your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules and walks, to playtime and cuddles! I also want parents to feel as comfortable as possible! I love to provide pictures and updates so you can relax while away.

I understand how important routine and comfort are for pets, and I’ll make sure your cat feels safe and cared for in your absence Im available for evening pet visits after 5 pm , free schedule on weekends. Greet for feeding , litter changes ,playtime ,walking and check ins I understand how important trust is when it comes to caring for your pets. I follow detailed routines, respect your home and rules, and prioritize safety at all times. You’ll receive regular updates so you can relax knowing your furry family members are in reliable hands.
About: I've taken care of all sorts of dogs ranging in size and need! I've given pills and insulin injections to some of the dogs I've watched and am very comfortable with those things. I've also watched chickens, turtles, and cats! I am a stay at home mom to 2 wonderful little boys! So I am readily available for your pet! We cannot wait to play and meet your pet! I have a fenced in yard. I have a small 8 lb dog that is unamused by other dogs and will keep his distance. Your dog can be crated if you'd prefer.

About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies. I’m currently in college, I’ve always loved animals and I lost my job in March, I’m just trying to find better things for myself. Reach out anytime ☺️ I have open availability so pretty much let me know what you’re looking for, if you want me to just stay at yours or even if you just want me to pop in and out from time to time! I have a fenced yard so I’m always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot
“Kayla is detail oriented and clearly loves animals. We had a great meet and greet where she took notes, and she was very patient with my high energy dog. She filled out the rover card with very pertinent details and supplied several photos. I look forward to having her back and would happily recommend her to any other doggy family!!”

“Kayla noticed that one of my cats was struggling to finish their food during her visits, which resulted in my other cat trying to eat it. Her response to this dilemma was truly above and beyond: Kayla would hide the leftover food and make a second trip over later in the day (even though only one daily visit was requested) to make sure my cat ate the remaining food and didn't go hungry!”

About: I have cared for my family's pets for over 30 years, I love meeting new animals and getting to know their personality! I have experience at every stage of a pet's life, from puppies and kittens to elder pets. I have experience administering mediation, caring to your pet's specific needs, assisting disabled pets, training puppies and crate training. I am dedicated to being a caring and thoughtful pet-sitter. I love animals and can't wait to meet your special friend! I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats. My dog, Zoey, is a 2-year-old puppy that I got at 12 weeks old, so my puppy training skills are fresh! I also have 2 cats, Archie and Theo, who are brother cats from the same litter. I've had them since they were kittens. Zoey grew up with the cats, so she is well trained with cats and she is very well behaved. Zoey and the cats get along with other animals very well. They are sweet, loving pets that play together and nap side-by-side. I work from home full time, so I am always at the house. I am very flexible to whatever your pet's routine is. Whatever they need, I can incorporate it into my day. At booking, I will provide a questionnaire and you can advise me of any needs or requests for your pet's routine, and I will make their routine a part of mine! In my home, I provide pets with several comfortable areas for them to lounge and sleep in, with bedding and blankets. I also provide several toys and chew toys that are usually left out for them to play with (unless requested not to). Meals are kept on schedule and any mediation or vitamins are administered on-time. Water is always filtered and clean, changed daily (or use a continuous running system). Safety is my top priority. I want to ensure that your pet has a safe and relaxing time during their stay, I will provide a separate room for your animal if needed or requested, with their own bedding and play-area. I have several rooms in the house that are not used, so I keep this space reserved for your pets. I will collect your vet information at booking and take your pet to their vet if necessary; I also am a member of the local Dauphin County Animal Hospital, which I can use if needed for emergencies. I will maintain communication with you and check-in daily with photos; I am also open to take any inquiries, if you would like to check-in on your pets.

I own a rabbit named Thor who my husband and I spend a lot of time caring for and loving in our apartment in Camp Hill, PA. I’m currently a grad student and I have a very open schedule to walk and take care of your dog this summer and beyond. I look forward to meeting your dog or cat soon!

About: As a lifelong owner of dogs & cats, I’ve provided care for all of my animals when it comes to feeding, grooming, walking, and companionship. For pets that are not my own, I’ve provided assistance to friends and family when it comes to walking, feeding, and pet-sitting (10 years of experience). I have experience with pets of all ages (puppy to senior, kitten to adult) and love them all the same! I work a full-time job (typical working hours) with lots of flexibility after 4:30pm during the work week. On the weekends, my schedule opens with availability of mornings afternoons & nights! Safety and trust are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I maintain a calm, structured environment where pets feel secure and cared for. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as provided and always keep pets supervised indoors and outdoors. I double-check doors, use secure leashing practices, and never introduce unfamiliar animals without clear permission. I also can provide consistent photo and video updates so pet parents feel fully informed and at ease while they’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and stress-free!

“Paul was wonderful! We were looking for a pet sitter last minute and he came through. Followed our instructions perfectly and sent updates including photos and videos with every drop-in visit. I could tell from the videos that my cat loved having him around. Thank you, Paul!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dauphin stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dauphin choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Dauphin with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
