“Charlotte did an excellent job with my dogs and I could see in the pictures how comfortable they were with her. This was the first time I had someone come in to help and I was instantly amazed at how much the dogs liked her. I would recommend Charlotte to anyone looking for assistance and hope to use her again in the future.”

“Mackenna was great with my two cats, giving some extra time for the one when the other had a medical issue and went to stay with my sister who was running him back and forth to the vet. Raven was lonely without him. She kept me up to date with texts and photos — I would highly recommend her services!”

“Sabrina is a gem. Rocky immediately loved her. She's incredibly sweet and knowledgeable about animals. Clear communication, she asked the right questions during the meet and greet, and we felt completely comfortable with her watching our boy. We will definitely look to her for any future dog sitting needs. 💯 Recommend.”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life but in the previous 5 years is when I started to watch and take care of them more often I have plenty of time during the week and or weekends to watch 1 or multiple animals. I can stay overnight or do multiple drop in visits a day. I will make sure I have eyes on them on the whole time and tend to their needs when they need something. I will never walk them without a leash and steer away from other dogs being walked when I’m walking yours.
About: I have been taking care of my friends dogs for years now. I never had my own but I am very passionate about playing, feeding, walking, and bathing doggies! I have had plenty of my own cats over the years! Currently I have a two young cats who I have had to provide medicine too due to surgeries. I love playing with my own cats and would be happy to play with yours when needed! During the weekdays, I work til 3pm and will be available after 4pm to care for your animal. Weekends are more open and flexible to tend to your pet. During the summer my schedule is more open because I have off of work since I’m a teacher. I have a nice size backyard for your dog to play in! I also have two cats that can keep them company. I am open to support your pet and their needs however I can.

About: I have taken care of dogs and had cats for many years. I understand not every pet is the same and would love to get to know your furry friend(s). I am working full time, a mother of two. I am going to work this in and use my vibrant 6 year old to help! I will treat your house with respect and treat your pets like they are my own. I am happy to offer cuddles and play time.
About: We have owned, rescued, and fostered many fur babies, including seniors and those that have medical needs and hospice care. Fur babies are unconditional love! I am retired and have a lot of time for fur babies. Taking care of fur babies are what keeps me active and, on the go. I have a fenced yard and three smaller dogs that love to play and cuddle. My home is more suited for fur babies then humans!
“Tom was incredible! Great communication. We needed a last minute sitter and Tom came through in a big way. He was great with check ins and tons of pictures! Our dogs looked very healthy and happy upon our return!!”


About: Hi My name is Meghan, and I have been caring for dogs since I was little. I have 3 bigger dogs of my own, English Mastiff Pitbull Mix (9), Smooth Fox Terrier Lab Mix (5), and a French Mastiff (2). I have been volunteering for a dog rescue and helping to foster dogs in home for over 10 years. Due to my French Mastiff having diabetes, I am trained on how to give a dog an insulin shot, and am able to medicate your pet as well! I also have 1 cat and just love being around animals! I’m currently a college student and I have 1-2 classes every day from 8am-12pm and I only go to classes so I would not have any outside conflicts or commitments to have to go to. I have experience in giving shots, pills, and light grooming if necessary. I would take your dogs for a walk, give them food/water depending on the time, and just spend time with them to make them feel less alone.
“Skye was amazing with all 4 of my cats while I was away for a few days. One of my kitties is very anxious and skittish, and Skye was so patient with her and was able to get her to eventually come out for dinner and even pets. She is responsive and easy to communicate with, and even went above and beyond by checking on my turtle and feeding her! And she sent me lots of pics of my kitties, which I love!! Skye will definitely be my go-to cat sitter moving forward.”

“Erika was excellent with my fur babies! I got pictures and updates on every visit. She took great care and was so polite and professional. She takes excellent pictures and put your mind at ease while away. Highly recommend her and will be using her again when we travel! Thank you!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently share my home with a lovable Labrador and a German Shepherd who are treated as a cherished member of our family. Watching friends’ dogs has become a natural extension of my love for animals, and every dog that stays with us gets the same care and affection as my own. Our whole family shares this passion for dogs. My young son loves spending hours playing with our pups, ensuring that any dog in our home is not just cared for but actively engaged and loved. I’m committed to making this a worry-free experience for you, knowing your dog will have their best time with us. I even offer meet-and-greet sessions before bookings to make sure we’re a great fit. Plus, I can pick up and drop off your dog within a 10-mile radius for your convenience. Special treatment is my promise—I care for every dog as if they were my own, giving them all the love and attention I’d want for my pup. We’re true dog people, and we genuinely enjoy welcoming furry friends into our home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I care for my own dogs daily with regular walks, meals, and playtime. When sitting for other dogs, I adjust my schedule to include their specific needs, ensuring they feel loved and comfortable. I also offer pick-up/drop-off and meet-and-greet sessions to make the process seamless for owners. I provide a safe, loving, and engaging environment for every pet in my care. In my home, dogs are treated as part of the family, with regular feeding, walks, and plenty of playtime to ensure they feel happy and at ease. I follow any specific routines or preferences provided by the owner, from dietary needs to favorite activities. For pets in their own home, I maintain their usual routine to keep them comfortable, including feeding, walking, and giving them personalized attention. Whether at my home or yours, my priority is ensuring every pet feels loved, secure, and well cared for.

Gilbertsville dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a fantastic experience with Audrey! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she was incredibly flexible. We loved receiving lots of pictures and updates during her visit. It was reassuring to see Buddy happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The updates and responsiveness made us feel at ease while we had a nice night out. Most importantly, Buddy was happy and excited to see her, which says it a lot! We highly recommend Audrey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. We will definitely be booking again!

Doris was took excellent care of our Labrador Retriever in our home! She set up a meet and greet meeting with us and asked about our dog’s likes and dislikes. She shared some stories about her own dogs so we knew she was experienced with all kinds of dogs and we were comforted that Sable (our dog) would be in good hands since this was the first time Sable had ever had a dog sitter. During her visits, Doris played with Sable, sent us pictures & updates, took her for walks and fed & watered her at the scheduled times. I highly recommend Doris as a pet sitter!!
Olivier did a wonderful job with our two Cairn Terriers. He spent extra time with them walking through the gardens, collected eggs from the chickens, and made sure everyone was happy. We got lots of doggie pictures while on vacation of them roaming around the gardens and bonus pictures of the chickens, too. We'd recommend Olivier to anyone!
