About: I’ve been the go to pet sitter for my friends for 5 years now, including full week house and pet sitting. Love playing and walks! I currently work from home! So as long as I am not tied up with a meeting at work I’m free to take some time out of my day to help out! I have no probably going to clients location to walk animals or visiting them in their home! Happy to keep animals in their recognized locations!
“We love Keandra. She’s watched our two Great Danes a few times now and is reliable and responsive. We’ve recommended her to our friends and neighbors and will rebook her again in the future.”
“This was my first experience using Rover, and to be honest, I was initially worried. After asking a couple of pet sitters, I believe I made the best decision in choosing Amaya. I had the pleasure of having Amaya take care of my beloved cat, Baloo, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and dedication she provided. Throughout her visits, Amaya went above and beyond to ensure Baloo's well-being. She consistently updated me with detailed messages, keeping me informed about Baloo's meals, water refreshments, litter box cleaning, and even the extra effort to engage him in play and brushing. What truly stood out was Amaya's patience and understanding of Baloo's shy nature. She took the time to let him come out and get used to her presence on his own terms, resulting in heartwarming progress. The updates she provided, such as Baloo coming out for pets and brushing, truly reflect her commitment to creating a comfortable and trusting environment for him. Amaya demonstrated not only professionalism but also genuine care and affection towards Baloo. Her efforts to make each visit a positive experience for him were evident, and I'm grateful for the progress she achieved in getting him to warm up. I highly recommend Amaya for her exceptional pet sitting services. Baloo and I are fortunate to have found someone so dedicated and caring. Thank you, Amaya, for your outstanding service!”
About: I have been a dog mom for 2 of my own and have fostered dozens of large dogs, sick or healthy, many from kill lists that I help to heal. It's not just physical, but mental healing and manners, inside the home or out in public. All my fosters have gone on to be adopted by loving families! I primarily do boarding, and can walk your dog (s), keep your dog in my home where I have a huge fenced yard. House sitting, drop ins and walks are good if you live close to my place. I am mostly retired. I’m allergic to cats, so no house sitting your dogs if there is a cat present. My experience with foster dogs has taught me how to easily handle dogs with positive re-enforcement. I don't demand that your dog(s) submit to me. I give praise every time I catch them doing well. I train house manners when in my home to eliminate counter surfing, attempts to push through a door first and they get to practice their obedience commands. Lots of walks and a prolific amount of play engage their minds allowing them to work mentally and physically to become a happier pet. I believe all dogs are good dogs, it's the people that need to bring out the best in them. Your dog(s) will be happy! I appreciate the generosity of happy pet owners and all cash tips support my dog foster efforts :). Thanks!
About: Growing up on a small farm in rural Texas, i’ve been surrounded by animals by entire life, yet our little furry friends that we allow to live in our homes always have been my specialty. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 5, have taken many vet-med classes, and even have interned as a small animal veterinarian. I love an active, rowdy dog who is down to run laps and play all day, or even a relaxed gentle pup who just wants cuddles. I have intensive experience with senior dogs, I am able to administer any medicines/vaccines your puppy may need! I currently work at home so I am available to love your pup all around the clock!! I do online classes at CSU, so I am only away typically for errands and gym! I live solo in a pet-free, child-free apartment that is spacious and has an unfenced backyard, however there is a park nearby to take any runners out in!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Johnstown
May was absolutely wonderful with my chickens while I was on vacation! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, safe, and well cared for. She even brought them a special pinecone treat to play with, sat and read to them, and went the extra mile by checking on them an additional time when we had stormy weather. 🥹🐔 It was so clear that May genuinely cared about my chickens, and knowing she was looking after them gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I came home to happy, well-loved chickens, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I would absolutely recommend May and would love to have her care for my flock again!

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Johnstown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
