“Debra is so loving and caring to our elderly cat and dog. She drove through ice and snow and made sure our old guy didn't slip on the ice outside. She is an angel. Thank you so much Debra 💚”

“Miranda is amazing! She always takes excellent care of our cat and home. Our cat looks forward to her visits and we can go away with peace of mind. Would definitely recommend her to friends and family.”

“Alexandra is so thorough and helpful! We have a special needs dog who needs several medications and she helped us feel very confident in leaving him under her care. I love the pictures she sends!”

About: While I’ve never had my own dog, I have many dogs in my life who I adore, and who adore me. Dogs always approach me in public because they can sense how much I love them! I’ll love your pup as if it’s my own! I'm a PA student and my schedule is different everyday. If you request something a week in advance, I should be able to arrange something! Whether your pup just needs a buddy to hang out with or needs to be fed/walked, I’m in! I’m respectful of your space and can do whatever you need, as long as detailed instructions are left for me. I will go above and beyond to care for your pet as if it’s my own.
“Wonderful with my Colby! Highly recommended. Heather is reliable and was available in a pinch when my sitter was unavailable. She bonded with him quickly and I feel secure with him in her care.”

“Did an absolute amazing job would absolutely book with Leeland again! Very communicative, absolutely no hassle, and was flexible. Marley 100% loved him and I came back from the holidays to a happy doggo and mess free home. Marley is a big pup weighing over 100lbs and Leeland cared for him like a champ!!”

“Hannah did an amazing job taking care of our kitties over the holidays! She got to know them and their quirks/personalities very quickly, and did a great job with our senior cat. Provided excellent updates and photos, and a lot of peace of mind for us while we were out of town!”

“Merrisa was a fabulous sitter!! Her dedicated care and thoughtful communication left both our beloved Diego and us at ease! Highly recommend!!! Thank you for everything 🫶🏾”

“Rachel is wonderful! Leaves a detailed summary of her visits, has clear communication - just an overall great sitter! I think she loves my cat just as much as my cat loves her! 💖”

About: I have been dog sitting dogs since I was a teenager. I have experience with many different breeds both big and small. Since I don’t have any pets of my own right now I love being able to go meet new furry friends and play with them I have a pretty flexible work schedule. I can make my own schedule based off of the needs clients may have. Depending on when your pets need care I can adjust my schedule accordingly It is my pleasure to keep your pets company while you are away. I am happy to help out with whatever is needed. I am reliable and will keep your pets company while you are away.
“Rachel was outstanding and patient with my great Dane. She followed every single step we went into her during the meet and greet and followed instructions without a problem. She also left everything exactly as I left it was great when it came to cleaning up a couple messes he made. I’m really looking forward to having Rachel dog sit my huge, anxious dog again. ☺️”

“Casey is the best! Any time Casey drops by the check on the cats while we are away, we come home to very happy kitties. Casey also always takes time to play with them and send pictures! 🐈🐈⬛”

Lancaster pet parents share their Rover experiences
There is no one I trust my pets (cat and dog) with more than Freedom. I can tell she cares deeply for them and goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of. I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies whenever you need someone you can trust!
Juliana has actually been checking on my dog Luna and my cat Lami for several months now! I encouraged her to join Rover so other lucky dogs and cats could have her visit them too. Highly recommend her services. Great communication and sends photos and updates!

Deb is an extremely dedicated, reliable and caring pet sitter. We have used her multiple times for our cat, and every time we are so impressed by Deb's care. And our cat absolutely adores her!! Deb goes above and beyond with sending the cutest pictures and updates-- we even come home to a spotless apartment. We have full confidence each time that our cat is in the best hands while we're gone. Deb's truly the best!

Katrina did a great job taking care of our five sweet kitties! She was prompt, friendly, and sent pics of our kitties each day. She handled our asthmatic cat's inhaler like a champ and sent helpful updates about our cats that put our minds at ease while we were away. We felt comfortable having her in our home after a very pleasant and thorough meet and greet and we're looking forward to working with her again soon. Thank you so much, Katrina!

Did an absolute amazing job would absolutely book with Leeland again! Very communicative, absolutely no hassle, and was flexible. Marley 100% loved him and I came back from the holidays to a happy doggo and mess free home. Marley is a big pup weighing over 100lbs and Leeland cared for him like a champ!!

Patrick did a great job with communication regarding my pet during his visits. I have an American Bully who weighs over 100 pounds who forgets he weighs that much and Patrick kept the right temperament to get him to relax before his walks. Highly recommend his services.
