About: I have watched all kinds of animals I have been trusted by family neighbors and friends since I was 10 to watch & care for there pets! I have one person I recently start watching for and he told me I am one of the only people he trust with his animals and house🥰 I normally do it around my work schedule! I will make sure they are left out before I go to work and as soon as I get out of work if it’s on a work day! I have a 1 year old German shepherd she is a big loving baby and gets along with everyone and all animals! She is very energetic and she has a big yard to run around in!
“Jessica was absolutely awesome. We will not hesitate to have Jessica take care of our dogs in the future. As the day progressed we received updates and pictures which really put our minds at ease. The whole experience was better than we ever expected .”
“Ashley was FANTASTIC! She was extremely flexible and understanding when my plans were a little chaotic and changed on the fly. Both of my kiddos were taken excellent care of! I will absolutely be calling on Ashley again and again.”
About: My husband and I have both owned dogs all our lives and find them to be a very important part of a family. We currently have an adopted pit bull mix named Maizie who we adore and volunteer for the organization Pitties Love Peace. We also house sit for our parents and neighbors when needed. We are very loving of all breeds and sizes as long as they are good with other dogs and kids and look forward to spending time with your pet when you are not able to. Both of our schedules are flexible, and I work from home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. If your dog enjoys walks, I would love to take them during the day or afternoon to burn off some energy. We also have a large open yard to run and play in during the day (on a lead) and enjoy lots of cuddles and belly rubs at night. I work from home Monday, Wednesday and Friday. My husband’s schedule is fairly flexible. We’re usually available on weekends and most holidays. I keep our calendar up to date. We are dog lovers, we have one pitbull mix, who is higher energy, but gets along with all dogs. Dogs are not allowed to sleep in our bed, but they are allowed on the furniture. We can also put them in a crate if that is what you prefer.
About: Animals are my "safe people." I enjoy giving them love and receiving love in return. I've taken care of many pets including dogs, cats, chickens, bunnies, guinea pigs, lambs and rats etc. I'm experienced in administering medication and am trained in supervising many dogs at once. I recently moved back to the area and would like pet sitting to be my full-time job. I am accepting new clients and ready to fill my schedule. I am able to care for pets in their own home. I want them to feel comfortable and secure in their normal routine as much as possible.
“Amy and Patrick were absolutely wonderful! They took care of Wray and Rudy so well and were very consistent with sending updates and pictures. I will definitely be using them again.”
About: I've haven taking care as long as I can remember since youth. I have experience working with pets of all ages. I treat every pet like my own family. I live in a smoke free home. No kids or children live with me. I have a back yard with ton of space as well as a front porch with ton of spacing for play area. I currently do not have any pets at the moment since March, since my dog passed away. I taking the time to learn their personally, routines, and specific needs so they feel safe and comfortable. I'm reliable, communicative, and detailed oriented. I can provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can always have peace of mind. I make sure your pet gets personalized care and attention every step of the way. I'm currently working part-time during the weekend remotely from home. I'm extremely flexible with early mornings, evenings and weekends. Which allows me to accommodate different routines and last-minute needs when possible to accommodate your schedule and your pets schedule. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or my clients home, always focusing on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. In my home I create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I prioritize maintaining the pet's normal routine since they're most comfortable in their own environment. My goal in both setting is to make pet feel safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own.
About: I have been an animal lover since I was young child. I even save bugs stuck inside! I have lifelong experience providing care to all sorts of pets including rodents, dogs and cats, both inside and outside. I have very strong beliefs about taking care of animals. I feel we are blessed to have animals in our lives and should treat them with love and dignity. I highly value kindness and compassion towards humans and animals alike. I am a very patient and loving person. I enjoy spreading that love and patience to all animals. I have owned 2 dogs, both of which with severe anxiety and leash reactivity. I met with a dog trainer and learned specific ways to help dogs dealing with those. I love to be outside and walk, especially with a dog. Exercise is so important to animals. I would adore getting to know your pets! I will give them all the snuggles they deserve! During the summer, I am available almost all of the time, even on the weekends. I am a teacher so, once school starts back in the fall, I will still be an active pet-care giver, but unfortunately my schedule will change. I am not able, at this time, to care for pets at my own home. I am MORE than happy to come to your home, walk your dog, and feed and give water to your pets.
“I can't say enough about Denise !! She treated our dog like it was her own. Eyedrops were required and she didn't hesitate (we have a Rottweiler) I don't want any other pet sitter! SHE'S THE ONE!!”
“Once again, such wonderfully loving care for my cat :) I have never had such piece of mind! Brandy is thorough, consistent, and very patient. I feel more than comfortable leaving my animals in her care.”
About: I’ve been passionate about working with animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, our family always had pets, and we spent years fostering dogs and volunteering with rescue organizations. As I got older, I expanded my experience by volunteering at an animal shelter, working with both cats and dogs. This led to a job as a dog daycare attendant, where I had the opportunity to facilitate group play, monitor behavior, and ensure both safety and cleanliness in a busy environment. In addition to my professional experience, I also created my own dog sitting business, building a loyal clientele over the past several years. With more than a decade of experience raising family pets, fostering dogs, and working in pet care, I’ve developed a deep understanding of animal behavior and a strong commitment to providing compassionate care. Whether it’s providing individual attention or managing group play, I’m dedicated to ensuring every pet feels comfortable and loved. - 10+ years raising family pets - 10+ years fostering dogs - 9 years pet sitting - 4 years as a dog daycare attendant My availability varies. Feel free to message me so we can work out a schedule! I work full time in a hybrid position and am typically free on weekends. Your pet's safety and comfort is my top priority! Due to my extensive experience with animals, I am completely comfortable with any scenario that may be presented. I have worked with all sizes, temperaments, and ages of animals.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Elizabethtown
Haley is very reliable and went above and beyond. Our dog is one who can be a bit leery of new faces but warmed to Haley after the first visit because Haley took the time to make Elsa feel at ease. We lost all of our worries of leaving our pet behind and recommend Haley to anyone.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Elizabethtown 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 Elizabethtown 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.

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.

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.
