“Hannah did a great job with our pets, and was very communicative. We also enjoyed seeing all the photos of our pets. She made sure they had everything they needed.”
“Leann was a great house sitter and I would highly recommend her. She was very responsive and gave me updates throughout the stay. She left my home in the same condition as I left it and I could tell my animals felt comfortable with her from the photos she sent me. I’m very happy overall and would book with her again.”
“Asia was great with our house and animals. We could tell by the way our dog acts when she see Asia that they are friends. Our requests were taken care of and our house was the way it was when we left it in her hands. We highly recommend her.”
“Hilary watched my two cats for a total of 11 days, spending the majority of each day at my house because my two cats are needy and quite particular at times. She was perfect for them. They loved her, updated me daily with pictures to prove it, and were so healthy and happy when I returned home. She followed directions carefully, even the silly and the confusing. I will absolutely rebook with her should I need this service again.”
“Jude is amazing! Our little girl got sick while we were away and Jude worked closely with me over the phone to be sure she was doing okay. She was creative with care and feeding, and decreased our anxiety about being away from our baby. She sent lots of pics and plenty of assurance. We love her and feel great about our next booking!”
“Briana was available on short notice when I had to be away for a funeral. I appreciated her willingness to be flexible. She took all my instructions in stride. She was very communicative and sent several photos. And most importantly, I came home to a happy, healthy dog! Briana is definitely on my go-to list in the future.”
“Our third time using Julie. Very happy, she is very responsive to our text messages, so we know we can always be in touch if there are problems, which so foar there have not been! She is a pleasure to work with and our dog Uli loves her!”
“Melissa did a great job. We came home to a happy and calm little dog who is usually nervous when we go away. The house was left clean and in order. Melissa was pleasant and reliable. We plan to use her again. Having someone in the house while we were away worked so well for us. We could tell that she was a natural with dogs and cares about them.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs/cats my entire life. I have checked in, played, fed, given meds and potty breaks to dogs of two other families before. STARTING AUGUST 18: I will be starting my clinical rotations at WellSpan hospitals and other sites. This means during weekdays I will not be available from 6am-3:30pm or even later depending what site I am at that day (i have rotations in Gettysburg). Weekends I am available unless said otherwise! Thank you! I’m a college student on summer break, so I’m available a lot of the time! I let out and play with another dog during weekday mornings, so anytime after that! Although I have an unfenced yard, I live on a dead end road with not a lot of traffic. I have a huge field behind my house where I can play with your pets. I have a friendly Springer Spaniel who can keep your dog company. I can easily crate if needed. Will not walk or let dogs out to potty without a leash. Will play unleashed in field.
“Caylin was great!!! We are so happy she was able to sit with our girls…. She kept me updated on how it was going and sent pictures of them during the day…. My husband and I were able to enjoy our day out…. Thank you again Caylin! I hope we will be able to use you in the future….”
About: I’ve have been watching friends dogs (2 or 3 at a time) for the last 4 years. I also helped care and walk my sisters dogs when we lived together for 4 years. I am always flexible with the schedule the dog is use to, but I am use to walking dogs in the morning and in the evening. I have a crate if needed. I have a small fenced in yard. No pets currently live in the home. I will care for your pets as you do.
About: I have 5 years of experience with pet sitting. I grew up around dogs and cats and love them both equally. I currently have 1 dog and 7 cats, due to this I can handle different animals and different situations as well! I am currently working part-time, but I currently have open availability due to it being the summer months and not having college classes at the moment. When I am taking care of pets I make sure they have enough of food and water before leaving the house, and if they need to be in a certain room of the house or in a crate I make sure they are secured in that area of the home.
“Our pets loved Sabrina and she clearly loved them right back. She was incredibly respectful of our space and was right on time! She walks a friend of ours dog as well and she has been incredible to both of them”
“Absolutely amazing, such a sweetheart and very communicative, took amazing care of my baby boys and did it last minute for me which I appreciate so much. She is so amazing and genuinely cares for the pups. House was clean, pups were happy, and they were fed 🤍🤍”

Farmdale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Our dog is a very anxious dog and had never been left with anyone else, but she quickly warmed up to Patience! Patience communicated with us throughout our trip and sent us pictures, which we really appreciated. Our dog also takes several medications and Patience did an amazing job making sure she got all of her pills on time. She left our house clean, which was great to come home to. I would highly recommend her and we will be using her again in the future!
I can't say enough good things about Sabrina as a pet sitter! From the moment I booked with her, I felt completely at ease. She was not only incredibly communicative, but she also sent tons of pictures and updates, making me feel like my dogs were in the best hands. Sabrina went above and beyond by always cleaning up after them, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and loving pet sitter, and I'll definitely be booking her again in the future. Thank you, Sabrina!
