“Kayla was great! From the first time she stopped by to meet Luna, I felt comfortable leaving Luna in Kayla's care. She took photos to show me anything important and Luna seemed happy and healthy when I came back. I'm very happy and would definitely recommend Kayla. I will absolutely be rebooking her next time I go away.”
“Callia was a wonderful caretaker for my cat while I was away for the weekend. She was punctual and reliable. She was also flexible to some last minute changes that really helped me out! I definately recommend her for your fur baby!”
About: I have been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, having grown up in the countryside where caring for them was a natural part of daily life. My childhood was spent riding horses and sharing my home with Great Danes, pugs, and cats. For the past five years, I have provided attentive and reliable care for dogs and cats throughout the Nay Aug Park, Scranton, Clarks Summit, and Lake Ariel areas. At home, I care for my own animals on ten peaceful acres near Moscow, Pennsylvania, including an Arabian horse, five ducks, and two cats. I am deeply committed to the well-being of every animal entrusted to me and take great pride in treating them with the same love, patience, and attention as I do my own. I would be delighted to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you are away. I work independently from home in documentary film, which allows me a highly flexible schedule throughout the mornings and daytime—one that I am confident can be tailored to meet your needs I take great care to follow each owner’s specific instructions, recognizing that every pet and household has its own unique needs. I am diligent about maintaining established routines, understanding how important consistency is for animals and their well-being.
“Logan was wonderful with our two kitties. They are very shy and skittish and Logan was patient and kind and wisely waited for them to make friends in their own time. Now they love him! He was great at keeping us informed, dependable, and helpful. He did everything we asked and spent lots of time with our pets. He even took care of some outside snow and ice for us! We will definitely request Logan again. Very happy pet parents!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I was the little kid that visited the neighbors just to see their dogs. I have dog sat on many occasions. I am very detail oriented and love abiding by schedules. I do not mind the size of the dog either. The more dogs you have the better. I will gladly meet the dog(s) beforehand to see if they are comfortable with me. Other pets are also welcome too! The most animals I have watched at one time was three dogs and one cat. I am not opposed to light cleaning for the animals when necessary. Any routines you have for feeding or walking will always be followed. If you have any questions please ask me. I look forward to meeting your pets!
About: Having been around animals my entire life, I recognize that every pet has their own special personality. Sometimes, beautiful personalities require more attention, love, or patience than others. Every pet I have owned has been rescued in some form or another, whether from a shelter or right off of the street, and each one has brought their own challenges, but also their own beautiful ways of showing love. I have no problem with jumpy, hyper, or "mouthy" pets, or any other behaviors that might be deemed "problematic". My life with all sorts of animals has allowed me to gain valuable skills, including being comfortable around pets of all sizes and shapes, handling "pushy" behaviors, and caring for senior pets with specific health issues. Allow me to offer a loving hand when yours is not available. While I do work full-time, my schedule outside of the office and ability to travel allows me the flexibility to accommodate for any pet's needs. My number-one priority has always been safety. I've worked in professional environments with animals, such farms and shelters, and carry with me the valuable lessons I gained from those jobs.
“Madison took great care of our boys when we were out of town. She knew exactly how to win their trust. All instructions left for our doggies care were followed. We will definitely reach out to Madison for any future doggy sitting needs. Thank you for looking after are boys. Yoda and Panda say HI!”
About: I currently have a dog and have had both dogs and cats my whole life. I love walking and animals so I figured this would be great second job. I am willing to discuss any arrangement that works for you and both of our animals. I am currently working part time and have time to drop in for walks, water plants, etc. Evening shift is better for me . Weekends anytime. My schedule varies. If you work 3 to 11 weekdays I am a perfect fit. I will care for your pet in your home. If walks are needed that is fine. If just outside play.. that will be fine. I am flexible
“Nicole is absolutely amazing! She was so patient with my dog, who is scared of just about everything. It’s clear she’s a true animal person—my dog doesn’t take to many people, but he warmed up to her right away. She’s trustworthy, upfront, and honest, which gave me so much peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and understands animals, I highly recommend Nicole!”
About: My name is Matthew and I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 100lb Labrador who’s not just my pet—he’s my best buddy. We walk, hike, play, and explore every day, rain or shine! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own—with love, patience, and plenty of exercise. Whether you need regular walks, help on busy days, or just want your pup to get some extra attention, I’m here to help! Reliable. Experienced. I currently work full time from home but I’m very active so I keep my dog active with me. We are up at 5am everyday going for runs/walks. On breaks we always get outside to enjoy the weather and allow him to use the bathroom if needed. After work if I’m not busy I love to take him to the dog park or on another walk around the neighborhood. So I’m available every weekday from 5am-8am and after work from 6pm-9pm I have a big open yard that I have an electric fence for my dog to go out as he needs with or without me. When leaving the yard he gets his harness put on and a leash with poop bags. We walk on the sidewalk at all times. We stop and sit before looking to see if we can cross the road.
About: I have grown up with lots of dogs from small to large! I own a dog myself, a turtle and fish! Most of my experience is with dogs but I’m a fan of all animals! Willing to care for any needs you require. I am a stay at home Mom that has lots of availability! I am available morning, afternoon and evenings! I have a car of my own to get to your pet whenever needed! I do not do any in house care. I am willing to do all of your needs at your home! Walks, feedings, cuddles, playing, etc!
“Lori is excellent! She is patient, kind, thoughtful and treated my pup and home as if it were her own. My boy loved his visit and I loved knowing he was in good hands when I was away from home. Highly recommend Lori as your pet sitter!”

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lake Ariel on Rover is $20.33 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lake Ariel stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
