About: I have done both dog and cat sitting for multiple people over the years, in addition to volunteering with a dog rescue center during the time i lived in Mexico. Ive also done my part in rescuing and helping animals in my own time. I am an avid cat lover, but also very comfortable with all dog breeds and am sure to make sure your pets feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work part-time in hospitality, and have a decently flexible schedule. I always have time in my day for outside time and walks. I am happy to listen to my clients' concerns on schedule needs and adjustments. We have 3 cats and a dog in my household, so i am used to the happy chaos. I know how to stay on top of feeding times, litter box cleans, and outside time. I am happy to listen to my clients specific instructions on how their pets live, and how I can make them the most comfortable during my stay.
“Melissa was great! This was my first Rover experience so I really had no idea what to expect but melissa went above and beyond my expectations! She put me at ease while she watched my babies and provided updates while I was away!”

“Avah was so good with my dog Tank. When we first met her he was already pulling towards her like he knew she was “pet people.” He’s an old man but a good judge of character. She sent pictures daily and made she he got plenty of walks to keep him moving.”

“It's very comforting to know when you leave your special friend, that someone will take good care of them. Amelia was wonderful, very caring, she sends lots of pics and Kenzy told me they had a great time!!!!”

“Phoebe was the absolute best, I seriously could not recommend her more!! She constantly sent updates and pictures of Tito while I was gone. He usually doesn’t eat when I am not home and he was eating every meal with Phoebe and was so calm and relaxed with her. It made being away such a breeze to know Tito was in such good hands. Phoebe went out of her way to frame a picture of Tito for when I got home. She truly loves all animals like her own! I am SO happy to have found her!!”

About: I have loved animals from birth and have always had pets. From the time that I was a little girl, I've cared for different types of pets. I have experience with rodents, lizards, snakes and bunnies, to cats and dogs. I've worked in several veterinary clinics and currently have 4 cats Charlee, Gia, Hendrix and Moon) and a rabbit named Apollo. They are all spoiled rotten! I currently have lots of free time and would love to help my neighbors in need! I am very flexible and love to get a bit of sunshine from the fur babies in my care. ****Due to a current medical issue, I am only able to help with cats**** I am able to provide services such as walks, bathing, grooming and even medications, including injections. Our pets are well taken care of and are always kept clean and healthy.
About: Had my first pet at a young age and I have always shown them love and attention. Love how much they just want to be Love and be Loved. Work part time and have lots of time to Pet Sit. Very flexible with my schedule and this is something that will be perfect for me to do as I love and do well with our Fur Family. I've got a yard with fence around it and for my cats they have a cat litter box on each for so they have easy access to it. I'm very attentive to making sure their cat litter gets scooped up daily to keep them happy, healthy and comfortable.
“We couldn't be happier with the way Eren and Luca cared for our two young cats while we were away! They gave them so much love and attention, and were very patient with our skittish kitty, monitoring him carefully to make sure he was getting enough food when he was too anxious to eat at regular mealtimes. They were great about checking in and sent us lots of video and photo updates, making it easy for us to relax during our trip in the confidence that our cats were being well taken care of. They followed our instructions carefully and left our house just as they found it. We highly recommend them!”


“Kaela was amazing with our babies! We have one very shy girl who takes awhile to warm up to new people. Kaela went above and beyond to help our Maggie feel comfortable with her. Our girls had a great week with Kaela and I think they missed their new friend when we came home! So thankful to have found a great sitter to watch our babies when we travel!!”
About: I’m familiar with almost every breed, and have been training them since I was 10 years old.

Will walk daily and play with them depending on age etc. I have a fenced in yard with no other pets.

I don’t like crates, but that’s me, and will respect your wishes. If at your house, you make the rules and I follow them, willing to FaceTime etc. whatever you need.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Kutztown walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Kutztown maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Kutztown 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!

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 .
