About: There’s nothing better than fresh air, open skies, and a wagging tail beside me. I focus on creating calm, enjoyable walks where dogs can explore, exercise, and feel completely cared for. You can expect thoughtful attention, lots of encouragement, and walks how you like them - whether that’s a pup who needs to stay close and away from everyone to letting your social dog say hi to everyone. I live in Erie and work from home. My job is flexible and I work east coast hours - so I’m up early and get off early. This means I’m more flexible to your needs. I know every animal has their own needs and I’m here to listen to yours. I hope to meet your four legged family member soon!
About: Hi, I'm Lindsey, I am a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience caring for playful pups, energetic working breeds, and sweet senior dogs. I currently have a 4-year old mini American Shepherd named Mochi! He’s a trained frisbee dog and the friendliest little shadow. Before him I raised two Australian Shepherds from puppyhood through their senior years. I’ve cared for: Puppies Senior dogs High-energy and working breeds Anxious and shy pups Dogs needing oral medication I believe every dog deserves patient, structured care with plenty of love, enrichment, and outdoor time. I treat every dog like my own. I live on a greenbelt that connects to Coal Creek trail, there are miles of of walking and sniffing at my back door! I work outside the home from 12–3 PM, Monday–Friday but have the option to work from home. ( I will be home full time starting in June 2026), and my husband works from home MWF so your dog will rarely be alone. I’m fully available: Early mornings Late afternoons Evenings Weekends Daily walks, trail adventures, enrichment, and playtime fit easily into my weekly routine. Your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. I offer boarding,walks, and drop-ins, and I maintain a calm, respectful environment for all dogs in my care. My home setup: -Fully fenced yard backing up to a greenbelt connected to Coal Creek Trail (endless sniffing and exploring!) -Dogs welcome on furniture -Two kind, dog-loving daughters (ages 9 & 11) -Just Mochi, a playful mini American Shepherd -Calm home environment Safety practices I follow: -All dogs leashed outside the fenced yard -Crate available if preferred or required -Follow all pet parent routines + special instructions -Frequent photo updates and check ins for peace of mind I do not accept aggressive dogs, but I’m very comfortable with high-energy, playful, or anxious pups.

“Erika and I never met in person, but I was never worried about her being at my home with my pets! She communicates and takes care of pets very well. She was always very sweet and she was in too of her things on her end with modifying schedules when needed. You should book her!”


“We have booked Kaitlyn as a petsitter a few times now. She always takes good care of our pets and home. She is trustworthy, caring and punctual. We recommend her to anyone who might need help while they are away.”

“Our boys loved Sloane! Sloane communicated with me in a timely manner and always let me know if the visit times were going to be a little different. She was very easy to work with and I received the cutest pictures of my smiling boys and her while I was on vacation. I felt like I didn’t need to worry with her. Look forward to booking Sloane again when the time comes!”
“Hanna did an amazing job checking in on my dog and cat with my last minute check-in request. Followed my instructions to a T and left the house in great shape. They also went above and beyond, taking care of our foster dog esp. with some complicated health stuff/instructions. Great communication. Will rebook again in the future.”

“We met Tara to introduce Tucker to her and give her the keys to the house prior to leaving. It was as if we had known her for years. Tucker is not one to make up to people but he loved her instantly. Tara sent us pictures of him when she was there which was great. We could not be happier with her and hope to be able to have her back next time we are gone. Thank you for having such a caring attitude.”

About: I’ve owned 3 dogs over my life time and my parents just now adopted a 4th one I will be taking care of part time. Two of the boys passed at the same ages of 13 and Pete is now 11 doing great. Reggie is 15 weeks old and is the best boy in the world. I am free every day right now as I’m off from school for the semester. I can wrap my schedule around your and your pups needs. Morning, noon, or night I can be there. When it comes to taking care of other people’s dogs, I treat them as if they are my own. I make sure they are taken care of in any way I need to or feel needs to be done.
“Sara did amazing with my cat! She did drop in visits to administer oral and topical medication and had no problems. I also got an update picture from her every day and she communicated amazingly! I would definitely book again :)”

About: We’re longtime Rover users, but new Rover sitters. Here’s why that should not scare you off though. ... 1) No-cost meet and greet before booking. You can interview us in person, tour our home and yard, poke around, and decide if we’re a fit before committing. ... 2) Ryan is certified in Red Cross Canine and Feline First Aid/CPR, and Fear Free Canine and Feline Daycare, Boarding, and Administering Medication. ... 3) Two adults working from home and no children = no schedule flakiness or overbooking. ... 4) Only one guest pet at a time for a) focused attention and b) flexibility in the event of illness or injury. We can drop everything in an emergency and YOUR PET IS NUMBER ONE PRIORITY. ... About Us: We each grew up in dog and cat households. Today we’re proud pet parents of our lady husky Fen, and our cats - brother and sister - Loki and Freya. We’ve cared for our own pets from youngster to senior phases, some who needed meds, injections, extra patience, and lots of vet support. We board dogs and cats for friends and family; now we’d like to do it with Rover. ... As mentioned above, we both work from home. But Ryan, will be primary contact since his freelance work gives greater flexibility. We adore animals and shower affection, but also treat pet care as a job. As IT enterprise software project managers, pet parents get an avid practitioners of scheduling and task management apps for reliable time-management, routines, care tasks, communication, and status and photo updates. ... 5:30 am - 6 pm Weekdays, 10 am - 6 pm Weekends 6 pm is latest pickup or drop-off time. Calendar kept up to date. We start with a no-cost meet and greet to learn your pet’s routine, triggers, rewards, meds, and walking style. And most important, to see that we're a good fit. We keep it calm, read body language, and let them warm up on their terms—no barging in like Kramer on Seinfeld. For daycare and boarding, the meet and greet is a visit to our house. We'll introduce ourself and our pets. You and your pet can tour the house and yard. We'll ensure everyone is comfortable and if the fit isn't right, we'll completely understand. Dogs stay with Ryan downstairs with space to settle in. Our husky and two older cats will be upstairs when we can't supervised interaction and play (if welcome by you and your pet). We feed dogs separately, manage food and toys carefully to prevent friction, and keep the whole setup calm, predictable, and drama-free. Dogs get two walks a day unless you ask otherwise - and that can be with or without our dog.

Erie pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jessica was wonderful with our two elderly dogs! We were a bit concerned about leaving them for the weekend because they do have accidents due to age and one of our dogs has difficulty navigating our house. Jessica came over for a meet and greet before watching our boys, she was so kind and you can tell she truly loves dogs. Jessica provided regular updates to let us know our doggies were doing okay. She made sure to give them some extra love and attention and made sure they got outside. We came home to our house just as we left it and we really appreciate her flexibility regarding the older dog's accidents.

Alex is fantastic! She swooped in after we made a last minute request and made us and (most importantly) our dogs feel so comfortable. She’s clearly a huge animal person and has that special combination of caring and competence that’s needed, especially with puppy. She’s a great communicator and sent the best photos. We’ll definitely be working with Alex again!
