About: I enjoy taking care of animals and making sure they are happy. I love taking pets for walks and playing with them when needed. I have two of my own that I love very much. One is small sized dog, and the other is a medium sized dog. I have also been watching a family friends dogs for years. I currently am working part time. I work when I am scheduled which can be any day throughout the week. The hours I work work well with me and my dogs as I usually work 6 a.m. - 2:30 p.m., or 10 a.m. - 6:30 p.m. With that I lots of time to still take care of pets! I take my dogs for daily walks (weather permitted) and I will take the dogs into my back yard where there is a field behind me where they play. I make sure to watch them carefully. I care for other individuals pets with what they feel comfortable with.

“We always love Colleen. She does such a great job with our fur babies (who can be kind of difficult at times) and she always leaves our house nice and tidy. She also has great communication through out the entire sit with pictures and updates on the pups every day. She is absolutely wonderful. ❤️❤️”
7. Belinda W.
“Belinda is a lifesaver! For the past 12 years anytime my husband and I both traveled out of country my mom would stay with my three tiny pups. Unfortunately, my mom died a few months ago. My husband and I decided to use Rover to find a sitter for the first time so that we could go on a vacation to celebrate a big anniversary this year. We would be gone for 11 days. I really needed to get away but was worried because my dogs are older and my tiny 2lb dog has many special needs and requires a lot of extra care. Belinda was only person I interviewed. We knew immediately she was the one! She has a calm, quiet demeanor, was up for the challenge, and was wonderful around my pups. She came to visit a few times before I left to get to know them and then stayed with them at night until I returned. I received updates and pics/videos twice a day and never once did I feel worried. She took excellent care of all of them and went above and beyond to make them feel loved and cared for. They all had a great time and from videos and pics seemed very happy with her care. I highly recommend Belinda and will definitely utilize her services in the future if she will have us again.”
8. Ashley S.
“We reached out very last minute for someone to watch our 3 dogs for a weekend and Ashley was kind enough to accept! She sent through photos of the dogs and kept us updated during our time away. Our girl dog is super nervous around new people but she seemed to have had an amazing time and didn't seem stressed in the least when arriving back home. We will definitely keep Ashley in mind if we need a sitter again amd wpuld 100% recommend ?”
9. Mary V.
“Mary is a fantastic pet sitter who really enjoys animals. She spends quality time with each one of my five pets and even has "coffee with Ribs" when my very needy dog requires extra attention in the morning. My reclusive cat (Mini Meow) even comes out Mary's pet sitting, that says a lot about Mary. Mr. Kitty requires daily medication and Mary doesn't bat an eye at it. She makes sure he gets his pills and eats his special food without any issues. That's not easy to do with cats! Mary is one of the few people that I trust my pets with. She's caring, compassionate, responsible, and trustworthy. I highly recommend Mary as a pet sitter.”
10. Vonda L.
“Vonda took great care of our two pups and home while we were out of town. The doggies loved her!”
11. Victoria C.
“Victoria is amazing! I am very particular on who I allow in my home and who can take care of my cats and I ABSOLUTELY MUST sing Victoria’s praises!!! Of my 3 cats, 1 needs medications daily and she does NOT like people. Victoria was not only able to give Sophie her meds safely and easily, Sophie never ran from her nor put up a fight! She stayed to spend time with them, snuggle them and give them attention they needed while we were out of town. Victoria is very sweet, kind and such a great person and I trust her very much with my “kids”. She even text us cute pictures and updates daily. We will absolutely be asking her to take care of them again anytime we leave town! Thank you Victoria for treating my kids as your own!”

I’m a student working a full time rotation so my evening are free to walk/let out the pets I’m watching! My weekends are completely free so I can hang out all day with the pets. I love to take the pets for walks to go potty outside or just burn some energy. I do not have a fenced yard at my location.

“Andra is the most caring person and when it comes to animals especially dogs she excels. She took our two wild labradoodle on daily walks and they looked forward to her coming in the afternoon. We have gone on multiple overnight/ weeks away and we always had the utmost trust in her going to our house and taking care of our dogs day and night. You will not go wrong when hiring her to care for your fur babies!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for my aunt’s dog grooming/boarding business on and off ever since I was 13 years old. I enjoy animals so much that I made it my degree at Penn State with the intention of going pre-veterinary, with a strong interest in pet nutrition. Soon after graduation, I worked at a local pet health store where I learned even more about companion animal nutrition. (Feel free to ask me any questions about this, I’d love to discuss food brands if your pet is suffering from allergies or any other issues. I will also gladly address any digestion issues your pet may have while you’re away by adding yogurt and pumpkin to their diet, or ground beef and rice if necessary (with your permission of course).) God had better plans though and my husband and I began our family soon after we got married. I also took up pet sitting while my husband was active duty military and had regular customers on base for boarding and house sitting. We’re very blessed and I’m just looking for a way to make some extra money to help my husband out and pay off our debt faster while being able to stay home and homeschool our children. I absolutely love dogs and cats and always love taking care of them (I think it’s the mother in me) and would love to make sure your sweet pet is well cared for while you are away! I stay at home full-time to homeschool my kids so my schedule is extremely flexible, especially during summer and holidays when we are off school. Last-minute bookings are happily accepted! For the pet’s safety and my children’s safety, I do crate overnight and while I am outside the house for grocery shopping, kids’ sports, etc. I would never want anything to happen to your pet! I do ask that your pup be crate trained if you would prefer to book with me. Dogs are let out for potty breaks every 2-3 hours during school breaks where we play fetch and let them stretch, especially if it’s a beautiful day out! I let them roam the house as much as I am able and I’ll play tug of war or rub their belly if they ask. ☺️ My children especially love animals and will offer so much love and attention to your pet while you’re away.
