“Madeline was absolutely fantastic and took amazing care of our senior dog Audrey who was experiencing some health problems at the time. When another sitter cancelled on us last second, Madeline took our pup on and took incredible care of her. I cannot stress enough how grateful we are to have found her. We will absolutely be booking with her in the future!”


“We had left Willow with Meghana for about a week and she and her partner were super accommodating to our dog! She constantly gave us updates and pictures on how our dog was doing. Our dog is a rescue so she is a bit timid and shy upon first meet. Meghana made sure Willow was comfortable and relaxed - they respected her space and she opened up to Meghana right away! They also frequently updated us on how Willow was doing, and it seemed like Willow made some new friends. We appreciate her service and her ability to care for our Willow for the week. Will definitely be reaching out again for your services! We really appreciate the care you provided. Thank you!”


About: I have taken care of my own family dogs and cats for my whole childhood and adulthood life. I have been given the experience of watching my neighbors and friends' pets. It has ranged from hamsters to dogs. I also have experience with training and watching after puppies. I work full-time as a teacher so am home by midafternoon. I take a mile walk before I leave for work and when I get back, so your pet will receive adequate exercise and stimulation. I have a dog to keep your furry friend company! He is very calm and loves other animals. I have space if your animal needs separation or to be crated for any reason.

“Extremely pleased and appreciative of the level of care that was provided for our four legged family member. This was a new experience for us so we were very nervous but Rebecca made us feel very at ease. Dyno had a great time and we will definitely be back in the future!”

“Rylee was fantastic with Puppa. She took him for walks and played with other dogs while she was dogsitting. She fed him some chicken and rice, such a treat! Rylee updated me every few hours and send me videos of him having a wonderful time. I would definitely recommend her to dog sit and hope that Puppa can stay with her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Amy — your pet’s new favorite auntie! 🐾 Since growing up with big dogs, small dogs, and cats - I have been a lifelong animal lover living vicariously through pet sitting for friends. I’ve always been the one that friends, roommates, and coworkers call when they need someone they can trust with their pets—and now I’m here for you too. Whether your furry family member is a playful pup, a chill cat, or a quirky critter, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I live an active lifestyle and love long walks, playtime, and cozy cuddle sessions. I’m happy to care for pets with all kinds of personalities—high-energy dogs, shy cats, and everything in between. Whether it’s boarding at my place or house sitting at yours, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I know how much your pet means to you, and I’ll always follow your care routines, send regular updates, and create a stress-free experience for both of you. I currently work from home on Fridays and am available on weekends for daytime or overnight dog sitting in my home (small and medium size dogs) or house sitting/drop in visits/walks for any pets between Friday 1 pm and Sunday 8 pm. Your home or mine, I love to be active or cuddle - whatever your pet’s personality is! My backyard is not fenced in, but does have a nice space for potty breaks. I am close by Delaware park for long walks. I don’t mind if pups use a crate or roam the house - whatever you prefer, but in my home I will ask that your pet is house trained.

About: Hi, I’m Grace! I love animals and have years of experience caring for pets. I treat every pet like my own, giving them lots of love and attention. You can count on me to keep your fur babies happy and safe while you’re away! Pet care is truly a part of my everyday life. Since I work from home, I’m available throughout the day to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. My routine is centered around making sure they are happy and healthy. We start the day with a morning walk, if you prefer that, where they can get plenty of exercise. Throughout the day, I ensure they have a mix of playtime, feeding, and rest, always keeping an eye on their well-being. I am home 90% of the time besides when I leave to go to the gym, not leaving more than an hour or two tops! In addition to outdoor adventures, my home offers a spacious, backyard where pets can run and play safely. I believe in creating a comfortable and engaging environment, so your pets will feel like they are part of the family. Whether it's a quick visit, daily check-ins, or overnight stays, I am dedicated to providing a loving and secure experience for your furry friends. I start my day early, around 6 AM, to let the pets out and ensure they get a good start to their day. I stay up until around 10 PM, making sure they are comfortable and settled in for the night. You can rest assured that with me, your pets are in caring and capable hands, enjoying a routine filled with love, activity, and safety.

About: I grew up with Dogs, and had a highly reactive dog with separation anxiety for 5 years who recently passed away. Prior to having my big sweet old guy, I dog sat frequently. I work for myself so I have a flexible schedule and can spend lots of time hanging with your pup. I love taking long walks so your pup will get plenty of exercise if needed too. I work for myself so I have an extremely flexible schedule and can be with your pup as needed. I’m rarely gone for more then 3 hours at a time during the day. I have a fenced in yard and a long lead. I also live near a large park and close to the outer harbor which both make great walking spots.

Lackawanna pet parents share their Rover experiences
Im very impressed with how attentive leah was with Mia. At 1st I felt guilty leaving her behind. But then leah was sending me updates with photos. Leah, put my mind at ease i felt like Mia was being well taken care of. Then i worried that Mia was having so much fun she wouldnt want to return home. I dont have to look no further, Leah checked off everything on my list, for a graat dog sitter. I would book again. I am so Thankful i found hrr..

Erika and her husband took fantastic care of my little senior chihuahua. They made sure he got all his medicine and special diet. I knew he was in the right place when he seemed so comfortable at their house. ( He is generally very shy around new people and pets.) He got his daily walks in their fenced yard. It was very comforting to know he had a secure place to wander around since his vision and hearing is impaired. They are also genuinely sweet people who obviously love animals. Also fantastic that they are generally home during the day to supervise the pets. A+++ experience. Will definitely use their services in the future!

Denae and Mark were wonderful hosts for our dog, Cooper. Denae was a great communicator and provided us photos and messages to let us know how Cooper was doing during his brief weekend stay. We will be using them again!

Denise and her daughter are absolutely fantastic with my Keeley. She loves going there. It's like a resort vacation for my pup...getting pampered and loved...swimming in the pool. Keeley had a great time!

Megan went above and beyond to help me and my family get to Canada for my niece's wedding. I had to make arrangements to drop Charlie off late in the evening before crossing the border. Megan was very helpful in making a complicated system of travel plans effective. She took great care of our dogs, and the dogs had a great time playing with the neighborhood kids and enjoying the fenced in back yard and the frequent walks. Megan is a fantastic dogsitter and I will book with her again. Charlie and Dolly say "thanks for the fun vacation!"

Chris was great, easy to communicate with very flexible with drop off/pick up time. We got updated throughout our trip about Caesar/nice photos. Everything was smooth would recommend for anyone.

Jillian was so awesome to work with! She was easy to communicate with and was flexible with making plans for our last minute booking. She treated our cat like a king and sent video/picture updates the whole time we were gone! I will only be using Jillian for all my cat’s sitting boarding needs in the future.
