“Dina has been amazing with our puppy and senior dog. They both really like her and I'm sure they appreciate her as much as I do. Dina goes above and beyond to fit me into her schedule even at late notice and I know our dogs are well taken care of. I could not be happier with my Rover experience because of Dina!”
“Gabby is wonderful . The dogs took to her quickly. She is punctual. We were so nervous this being our first time leaving our dogs home with a sitter …. Gabby is a definite big YES! We already have her booked for upcoming dates . As long as she’s available, she is our go to sitter for our fur babies ❤️”
About: I raised my own dog and best friend from when I was just a little girl! She lived until 16 years old so I have experience with my own pup from puppy to elder! I’m also a former but recent manager at a doggy daycare and boarding center with experience in medications, special feeding, some behavior issues and lots of dogs (and cats) in all shapes and sizes! I also have guinea pigs of my own and pocket pet experience. Full time RN so I have plenty of free time and MISS my daily dose of animals! Please let me love on your babies 💗 I work full time but usually have quite a bit of free time to hang out with pups (or cats or pocket pets!) who need that extra love and care! My own home does not allow animals but I am happy to offer any other services for your animals! I have experience in all kinds of situations through my pet care manager job of several years.
About: Hi, I'm Bob – a retired non-profit professional and lifelong animal lover based in Ephrata, PA. With over 50 years of experience caring for dogs and other pets, I offer reliable, compassionate pet sitting services right in your neighborhood. Whether it's daily walking the dog, feeding or long-term caring, I am anxious to care for your pet. As someone who now has the time and flexibility to focus on what I love, I treat every pet like family. Over the years, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments – from energetic puppies to senior companions – and I'm happy to provide references from longtime pet owners who trust me with their beloved animals. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my lifestyle as a retired individual with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. Without the demands of a 9-to-5 job, I have the time and energy to provide dedicated, one-on-one care to pets in a calm and comfortable environment. Whether it’s daily check-ins, overnight stays, or long walks, I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine and needs — and I truly enjoy the companionship they bring into my life. For me, this isn’t just a side job — it’s a meaningful way to stay active, helpful, and connected to the community. Some pets are happiest in their own surroundings — and I’m happy to come to them. I offer drop-in visits, walks, or extended stays depending on your needs. While you're away, I’ll keep your pet’s routine consistent and provide updates, photos, and peace of mind. I respect your home and your pet’s habits and will treat both with the same care and responsibility I’d expect for my own.
About: For my senior year of high school I went to a trade school to get my vet assistant certification. I graduated and received my certificate. In the program I was taught basic grooming nails, ears, and even shaving. Everyday we would walk the classroom dogs and interact with them. After high school I worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months before I ended up without a car and wasn’t able to drive the distance to work anymore. Looking for something to do on the side as I work a full time job but never wanted to give up working with animals as it’s my passion. I have a almost year old Pitsky puppy (pitbull/husky) named Dior. He is my such a sweetheart and loves to be around other dogs as well. Over the years I have watched my coworkers dogs, my uncles dog when he got fixed and had to wear a cone during the day so my uncle wasn’t able to watch him since he had to work, etc. I can’t wait to meet and interact with your furry friends and give them a special place in my heart as well💕 I work full time during the week but I always have evenings available to drop ins or walks. Days I am fully available would be Sunday and occasional Mondays as I now babysit as well. Weekends vary but I’m willing to be flexible. I have a nice area that I walk my dog to, to go to the bathroom and there’s also a development I walk through on nicer days, I have an extra bedroom for a crate if your dog needs to bring theirs
About: Hi! I’m Maryjane. I’ve grown up with animals of all kinds—cats, dogs, pigs, birds, and more—and have been caring for my own pets as well as friends’ and family’s animals for practically my whole life. I truly love animals, big and small, and want to continue caring for them because it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m currently a training hairstylist at Coppertree Salon with a passion for helping people feel confident and cared for. When I’m not doing hair, you’ll usually find me caring for my own animals, working on projects around the house, or enjoying nature. I’m hardworking, dependable, and enjoy staying busy, which is why I love offering pet care in my free time. It gives me the opportunity to earn extra income while doing something I genuinely enjoy. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and unique needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. During visits, I’ll provide fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, lots of attention, and keep the environment clean. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. 🐾
“Kathy did a wonderful job not only caring for my cats as if they were her own, but her communication with me was above and beyond. I felt very secure that my cats were well taken care of during our vacation and she made a sincere effort to befriend and nuture our pets when we couldn’t be there. I would highly recommend and will be booking Kathy again on our next trip!”
“Carissa was so mindful and caring with my kitties, and was so gentle with giving my 20yo kitty her meds. She even took out my trash when I forgot, and sent lots of pictures every day I was away. Absolutely will be booking again, thank you so much!! 💙”
“Blayze was very accommodating and professional. She took care of both of our pups above and beyond expectations, and our one dog is a bit of a trouble maker. If you need a reliable dog sitter don’t hesitate to contact Blayze, 10/10 would recommend.”
About: I have grown up having dogs in my life, as well as the luxury of being able to watch friends and families pets over the past 3 years. I have experience with not only dogs, but cats as well. I'm also experienced with watching multiple dogs at the same time. Because I work from home, I'm able to work anywhere, which has always come in handy. Currently I'm not able to have dogs of my own, because of my apartment, but the goal is to find a place that will allow me to have my own fur baby. I currently work remotely, so I have the flexibility to have my schedule work around what's best for you and your pets! So your pets will get the love and attention they deserve! I don't want any pet to feel anxious while their owner is away, so I make sure to take the time to best understand the needs of each client, so I can make sure the transition goes smoothly.
About: I volunteer at a local pet shelter while at college! I helped walk/feed and did daily visits. I helped out with puppies to senior dogs. Whenever you need a dog sitter or walker I would love to help out anytime. I love pets and love helping people out. I would love to get to know you and your animals! I am a very safe person with animals. I always want to make sure that they are happy and healthy. I love taking them on walks and doing daily check up visits, to get close with the animal.
About: Animals are my passion. I’ve taken care of many different types of dogs/cats of different ages and sizes. Through my years of experience, it’s easier to coax the most timid of animals into being my buddy. I like to learned and study what each animal needs or wants! So they are the most comfortable with me and on walks. I currently work super early in the day. I can check on animals midday through the afternoon and night. I’m free most weekends so any overnight stays would be fine with me. I would traditionally prefer animals to be in their own home. I know it can be stressful enough for an owner to leave their animals so I’d like for them to be the most comfortable in their own home.
About: Hi! I am a college student looking for opportunities to earn some money while doing what I enjoy most-hanging out with animals! I have sat for family, friends, and anyone else who needs help, and would love to be trusted enough to walk/sit/watch your dog. Being a student creates lots of flexibility, specifically mid afternoon to night! I also can do early mornings and weekends if they are planned ahead. Respecting animals space and reading body language is incredibly important when going into their home and walking them! Understanding what they are comfortable with and creating a safe environment is top priority. Lots of treats are required lol!
About: I’ve had multiple dogs and cats ever since I was young. I love taking care of them. I have so much love in my heart for animals I try to put pets as my first priority. They are like humans. They need as much attention as we people do. They need love and time with you Any pets I have taken care of have always been loved and cherished. No pet left behind. When I had my dogs they would always get so much attention from me
“Michael was the most caring, considerate, punctual, and responsible person we could have ever imagined to watch over our dog. We booked him for two days of three visits. He put such thoughtful consideration into every visit. Each visit was perfectly on time, all instructions followed, and a thorough summary of his visits were provided consistently. I’m so relieved to have found a responsible person to care for our pup. We will be rebooking with Michael again!!”
About: I have taken care of pets for over ten years. I have earned the trust of repeat clients and the love of dogs AND cats. I take my job very seriously; I know what a privilege it is to come into someone’s home and to be responsible for a family member. I am a self employed artist who can take my work anywhere. My time is not restricted and therefore walking, meal times and potty breaks are not a problem to maintain. My availability in general is optimal for long stays or last minute bookings. I am extremely respectful of my clients’ homes and adhere strictly to their instructions. I treat the environment as a place of employment; and I aim to leave the home clean, neat and as the clients left it.
“As always Rachel made our pups day! Lexi gets so excited and Rachel zeroes in on her wants and definitely spoils her. Makes our time away soo much more enjoyable knowing she is well cared for!”

I am attentive, kind and patient with my little, furry brothers and sisters I came from Ukraine, write music and work at part-time job with kids. spending time with animals is like a breath of fresh air in every day for me I give all my love, I make sure that the animal is in moral and physical safety.
