“Shelby is an excellent sitter. We burdened her with a litany of tasks for our three cats: litter boxes, food, water, water fountains, meds, and she handled them with professionalism and efficiency. She got her share of surprises too, including some cat vomit. Again, not rattled. Shelby did everything we asked of her, and was so attentive to our cats, playing with them in between tasks and sending boatloads of pictures. Her report cards are detailed and yet concise. Highly recommend her.”


“I’m so glad for that I found someone in my neighborhood who loves my for people as much as I do! Lulu the labrador loves Jen! I’m so glad that I can be at work during the day and trust that someone will be there to check in on my chunky monkey Lulu.”


“Cindy is so polite, respectful, and kind. She's been helping me for awhile (1-2x daily) with my 8 month old golden retriever puppy since I broke my leg. She is very calming and soothing with an energetic pup, and has great training suggestions. She has also offered to help beyond just walking the dog since it's been hard for me to move around, which is so sweet of her. I highly recommend Cindy for any of your pet care needs!”


“Amy did a really great job in taking care of our dog and 2 cats. We got regular updates and pictures which we loved! She went above and beyond and took extra time in caring for the pets!”


“Jody is a wonderful cat sitter. She fed, played & cuddled with Cheeto daily for close to a month, sending frequent pictures. It was obvious to us that Cheeto was quite comfortable with her as well as enjoying visits from her 8 yo son. Jody communicated when a battery in our water shutoff system needed to be recharged. And moved a few unexpected packages into the house. We would highly recommend her services as she is extremely personable & trustworthy.”


“Matthew was great checking in on our pups and providing us with some peace of mind while we had to head into the city. During the meet and greet, Matthew was so polite and asked very thoughtful questions about the hopes/expectations for our drop-in visits. We came to home to happy dogs and wouldn’t hesitate to request him for future services. Thank you Matthew.”


“We solely have Kimberly watch our cat Luna. She has been the best sitter for the past year and we can always leave reassured that our girl will be in the best hands. Luna has become very good friends with Kimberly and looks forward to her visits when we are gone. We just love Kimberly and will continue to keep booking with her.”

“Naiomi was great with taking care of our pets. She got along well with my high energy dog and 2 shy cats! We loved the regular updates and professional portrait level pictures we got. She went above and beyond and did a really great job in patching Moira when she got a scratch.”


“Amy did an amazing job watching my two bengal cats. She sent pictures and updates and was very thorough. She took the time to play with them and gave them lots of love. I will for sure be booking her again next time I am out of town. Thank you Amy for taking such good care of my kitties.”


“She is amazing!! The dogs loved her. All the pictures they had the biggest smile! While we weren't able to meet before and introduce her to the dogs, she listened to all our instructions about feeding and playing. A perfect sitter! 10/10 recommend and will be using again! 💜”


“10/10 Great guy. Took his time with my dogs while I was away and showed them plenty of attention. Was very respectful in my house and even went the extra mile to clean up any messes my dogs made. Highly recommend.”


About: I've grown up with both dogs and cats and have always loved animals. I started out just watching pets for friends and family as a favor, but now have a work from home job with a flexible schedule. So Im always looking for a reason to get out and go for a walk! I am always looking for more reasons to get out and go for walks. I have a young daughter who has some medical complications, so I wear her in a front pack when we walk with dogs. I love the exercise, she loves being outside, and we both enjoy a good snuggle with our Corgi, Frank, or any new furry friend! I am happy to take your furry friend on a walk around the block or up to 3 miles at a time! I am comfortable using a variety of collars and training tools, and like to keep treats on hand for positive reenforcement. :)

About: I have had dogs all during my childhood. My "brother" was a miniature poodle named Jo-Jo. I have had several dogs, cats, bunnies, and birds in my adult life and have experience caring for farm animals (pigs, sheep, goats, horses, cows and chickens). I was an assistant Dog 4-H leader and know basic dog obedience training and grooming. I have owned up tp 50 chickens at one time and sold eggs to restaurants. I have recently volunteered at a local animal sanctuary caring for farm animals. I am available every day of the week. I am retired with a part-time remote accounting practice so I take my work with me on pet sitting engagements. I only offer care in my client's home. I am not able to care for pets in my home. I would love to take your dog to a local park and walk.

“Allison has done a great job of taking care of my boy for drop in visits. Shes dependable and I look forward to her reports she fills out with pictures. I don’t have to worry when I’m away!”


“Elizabeth is amazing!!! My pups looked so happy in all the pics she sent! She did amazing with instructions! She even made sure to ask questions before to provide the best services she could! She gave us peace of mind while we left for the weekend! Couldn't ask for a better sitter!!! 💜”


“This was our second time booking with Alexandra! She did great with our dogs the first time and we loved having her back! She is now even more familiar with our dogs and the dogs with her as well.. which makes me feel safe and calm knowing my dogs are in good hands! With this visit, I unfortunately gave Alexandra a very short notice but she was still able to come through and help me by stopping by my house to let the dogs out! Will for sure be booking with her again in the future!”


About: Hi, my name is Winter and I love all animals! Growing up I have always had a large variety of pets including: dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rats, mice, ducks, birds, and even a jumping spider! I currently still own quite a few pets as well and am a responsible pet owner. I currently work at a dog kennel, so I take care of 30+ animals on days I work, which includes tasks like: playing with dogs/cats, taking them on walks, feeding/watering, and cleaning up any and all messes they may make. I am very passionate about animals, and would love to get to know yours! Currently I work my full time job on Saturdays-Mondays. I am available for house visits/walking pets on Tuesday’s-Fridays. I can do boarding at your home anytime, as long as I am given at least a days notice! I have house sat for dogs in a clients home a few times before and am very comfortable with it. I can get a dog into a crate if needed, and I will use any and all commands/release words you need me to.

About: I grew up with dogs, and have been a dog sitter for friends and family for as long as I can remember. As a teen, I didn't babysit much, but I would often dog sit for the neighbors. I can't wait to go for walks, play fetch, and cuddle up with your fur babies. Dogs have always loved me, and I love dogs! I'm very good at understanding a dog's body language and reading their moods. I'm very patient and know your dog will be missing you, and I know how important it is that they feel loved while you are away. I am available to walk your dog at least twice a day, minimum 30 minutes each session. And I'm available for potty breaks all day.

About: I have been taking care of neighbors pets and plants for many years. I am a reliable worker with good references. I have taken care of rabbits, fish, hamsters, dogs, cats, ferrets and goats. I currently teach summer camps during the day but I am available in the mornings, afternoons, and weekends as well as evenings. I would be able to check in on pets multiple times through the day. I am not able to care for pets in my own home, but I will go to clients homes to feed pets, walk and exercise them, do any necessary cleaning, and spend time giving animals love.

Gilberton pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sunny and Pebbles liked being cared for by Danielle so much that they barely recognized us when we came home. She made sure they enjoyed lots of play time and even treats. Danielle also thoughtfully looked after our plants during the heat wave. We happily recommend Danielle and look forward to seeing her again. 🐾

Jennifer is amazing!! She has watched my cat before and I felt so much better leaving town, knowing she was going to be there to check in. Jennifer sends detailed notes about how your animal is doing and sends great pictures. Highly recommend going with Jennifer for her services!
