“Sarah was great! It is never easy leaving your pets behind but Sarah helped me feel at ease with it. My dog had a good time with her and even my elderly cat popped out to say hi. Sarah communicated well and truly cares about animals.”

“We usually have family take care of our dog, but everyone who would usually watch him was unavailable. Sherry dropped in to care for our dog, chomper, 3 times in one day while we were at a wedding. You can tell she really cares about dogs and treats them like she does her own. We'll definitely book her if we need someone to take care of Chomper in the future!”


“Tina has been caring for my cats for the last three years and it is always such a weight off my mind to know that there’s someone I trust to watch my most precious babies (I’m a bit of a crazy cat parent). She’s dependable, conscientious, trustworthy, oh yeah, and my cats ADORE her (when Tina comes to the door they immediately swarm her)!”


About: Hello! My name is Lisandra and I am excited to be able to have the opportunity to provide love and care to your fur babies. Since my teenage years I have been taking care of dogs as I grew up in a household with a Shih Tzu and Chihuahua. Once I moved on my own I decided to continue that care by becoming a dog mom myself. Over the last 15 years I have been a dog mom to 2 wonderful dogs! At the moment, I have my Boston Terrier lover boy Scooby who is a spoiled happy boy. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as if they were my own. I can provide regular updates on your pet’s while also ensuring they get the love, care, play, exercise, and the cuddles they need! I’m currently working from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available for boarding 7 days a week and can provide doggy day care from 8am-6pm on those 7 days. To provide the upmost care for your pets, I can ensure they have a consistent routine that includes potty breaks every 2 hours, regular exercise with a 15 min daily walk 2 times a day (once in the afternoon and once in the evening), access to fresh water and food, a safe environment, plenty of attention and play time as well as a in home play mate! I also will maintain open communication with you regarding any concerns or changes in your pets behavior.

“We are so happy with Brooke! She far exceeded our expectations - she is the person you hope to have care for your babies. Not only did do the things she had to do to care for our cats, she took the time to connect with them and ease their fear of us being gone and her stepping in. The next time we go away, I hope she's available, because we'll definitely book her again with confidence. Thank you so much, Brooke!!”


“Maura did a wonderful job taking care of our special needs senior cat and our two younger ones. They are usually pretty shy with new people but by the second day warmed right up to her. I’m glad that we have found someone that takes such good care of the kitties so we can travel without worry.”


“Kellen was great with my 2 pups! One is young and can be an energetic handful, and he had no problems with him. Also helped me out with a last minute traveling work need, very much appreciated!”

“Jazzlyn is amazing! I can't give her enough praise. My dog can be a difficult one to win over and he took to her almost immediately. She's warm, caring, responsible, trustworthy, intelligent and responsive. She's everything you could hope for to care for your family pets while you are away. Jazzlyn kept me updated every time she stopped by with pictures and notes. To add to her myriad of talents, she's also an incredible photographer. She took the most stunningly beautiful pictures of my dog and cat, that I actually changed their profile pictures on Rover using her photos. My dog is like one of my children to me and I loved having Jazzlyn care for him and same for my elderly cat, not to mention my son's turtle. She's truly a gem.”


“Kayla is detail oriented and clearly loves animals. We had a great meet and greet where she took notes, and she was very patient with my high energy dog. She filled out the rover card with very pertinent details and supplied several photos. I look forward to having her back and would happily recommend her to any other doggy family!!”


“Christian did a great job with my puppy Hutch. I would definitely recommend him for other people who need assistance with making sure their dogs get what they need. Plus Hutch had play time which is great.”


“Andy accepted our booking last minute and was flexible with a time change. When she came over, she let us know one of our dogs didn’t want to go out so she offered to come back later. I really appreciated that! She was on time for both check ins and sent pics and great updates. We will definitely book with Andy again.”


About: I have lived with dogs all my life. I have 2 Boston Terriers and a Persian cat who I adore and spoil. If chosen to care for your pet, I will be sure to keep them safe and happy during my visit. I’m a full time nurse Monday through Friday, so am currently only available on the weekends, for drop ins and walks. In the near future, my schedule may change so that I can be available during the week. I am trustworthy and respectful of your home and will treat it and your pet as if they were my own. I will also keep them safe during walks outside.

About: I have a B.S. in Animal Science from Delaware Valley University and have lots of experience working with and owning all types of animals, from huge horses to tiny fish. No animal is a challenge, and I hope to meet them all! I know Rover does not offer “exotic” animal (rabbits, reptiles, fish, etc) or livestock (horses, cattle, chickens, etc) pet-sitting, but I understand that lots of people have more than one pet, so feel free to ask about my exotic animal pet sitting as well and we can figure it out! My weekly schedule changes all the time, but I always have weekends and a few days here and there to do whatever you need for your precious pet! I will always, no matter how difficult or unique, do whatever is needed to make sure your precious pets are cared for in the most loving and safest way. Nothing is too much for me, and I will always communicate with you!


About: Hi I'm Megan!. I have a reputation for reliability and excellent communication and do whatever it takes to ensure your pets receive the attention they deserve.

I often help family and friends by feeding them, walking them, giving them medicines, and spending time with them when they're not around. When you entrust me with your pets, you can expect a commitment to maintaining their routine and regular updates on your pet's well being while you're away. Pet care is a regular part of my day to day routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule and have reliable transportation. That’s why I can offer scheduling to fit your pet’s routine. I’m committed to creating a safe, reliable, and nurturing environment for your pet, while being mindful and respectful of your home and privacy. With a strong focus on organization and attention to detail, I closely follow all instructions to ensure your pet’s routine remains familiar and stress-free. You can count on me to care for your pet and home as if they were my own. My goal is to give both you and your pet a smooth, worry-free experience.

Tandi is a wonderful person and pet sitter. She has checked in on my 2 kitties many times over the last couple of years. Tandi has a strong sense of service and cares deeply for my kitties and home. She is thoughtful, sweet, reliable and overall a 5 star pet sitter on every level! Thank you, Tandi!

Sydney was amazing with my guys! I booked last minute and she was able to still make the request work! She fed, took them out and made sure they had water! She even got my German shepherd to eat a little which he never does when I’m not there! I would definitely recommend her if you need a drop in visit!

Hana provided exceptional care for Pasha and Benny. From the initial consultation, it was evident that she is dedicated to providing the best care and enjoyed spending time with my cats while I was gone. She was incredibly communicative, sending daily updates and photos, which provided peace of mind. Upon return, the cats were happy and healthy. Hannah is professional, attentive to detail, and clearly has a special touch with cats. I would definitely recommend Hana to take of anyone's kitties.
