“Cassidy really helped us out last minute when other plans for a sitter fell through. The pups immediately liked her when she came for the initial meet and greet. She asked really good questions regarding their care and routines and sent frequent updates with pictures. We definitely recommend her and will be using her again.”
“Amanda was a great sitter for our zoo of animals. She had her hands full with puppy energy and multiple cats and dogs. She provided pictures throughout our trip and communicated quickly even before our trip for our pre-trip introduction.”
“We had a great experience with Rachel! She came to our hotel and stayed with our Luca, for about four hours while we were out. She walked him, kept him hydrated, and made sure he was entertained the entire time. She was so sweet and gentle with him—truly wonderful. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

Her patience and gentle approach made my cats feel comfortable, and they even ate treats from her (which one definitely does not usually do).

“We were looking for someone to not only treat our pets as their own but someone we could trust and feel comfortable having them house set with our pets. We were fortunate enough to find that in Wendy. She’s thoughtful, conscientious, and friendly. She took good care of our pets and provided updates throughout the week. She gets 5 stars from us. We will definitely use her again.”
About: No discrimination here! I love all sizes, breeds, and ages. With over 20 years of experience, I have grown up with dogs pretty much my entire life. Your dog will be treated as if they were my own. We like to start and end every day with potty breaks along with atleast two walks per day. We allow your children to sit and sleep wherever they like. I am currently working full-time (about 15 minutes away from home), but my boyfriend (also a Rover sitter) works from home and can do daily potty breaks if needed.
“I have a very anxious pug, Ellie, she has a lot of quirks but Meghan was able to deal with all of them. She even said she “ had fun with both my dogs” I would recommend Meghan with a 5 star and will definitely use her again Thank you Meghan”
About: I started caring for pets in college (~2015), I am now a Medical student at PSCOM. Pet care is a great way to raise funds for my education and do something I love! My dedication to my education and my responsibilities as a pet caretaker go hand-in-hand. I will apply my time management skills to ensure your pet gets the upmost care and I succeed as a medical student. I grew up with dogs: chihuahuas, german shepherds, saint bernards, and pitbulls. I have cared for small-to-extra large dogs. Loved each experience! I love to run/walk near-by trails and hikes. If you are comfortable with me taking your pets, I would gladly do so! I always send photo updates. I have two Jack Russel mixes of my own, they have taught me everything (I didn't know) about pet ownership and responsibility! I walk them 1-2miles daily, if your dog is pet friendly and you are comfortable with it, I will walk them with your dog! If you want me to house sit, I will be studying most of the time and would appreciate a well-lighted desk and/or kitchen table! Would love to get to know your fur-baby! Happy to answer any questions. I am a medical student on clinical rotations so this varies. But I am an early morning riser, and can fit in a 1-2 mile walk/run (whatever you& your pet are comfortable with) before starting my day. If the location is near my area, lunch visits to your pets are possible. I would never schedule pet care if I could not get to your pets within 4-8hours (my calendar will be updated accordingly)! Afternoon care would involve me studying and going to the gym, everything modeled around whatever routine you& your pet are used to. At my home, my sun room is converted into a fenced area for my dogs. Small & Medium sized dogs are welcome to join. (fence is too low for a large+ dog) I have an unfenced yard, dogs would only go on there as I prepare them to go on a neighborhood walk. Pets would sleep on their individual beds inside the home. If I am house sitting and your pet is used to sleeping on the bed, that is okay with me. If your pet is staying in my home, I will be placing their bed inside or leave outside per your decision. (pet must be pad-trained or able to retain until morning)
“Queen was great taking care of our 3 furbabies while we were away. We appreciated all the updates and came home to happy and healthy babies.”
“Amelie truly came in clutch when another dog sitter canceled 5 days before my trip. I couldn't have asked for a better person! She was amazing with my HUGE grumpy older dog and my HYPER younger 2 year old...and did I mention they are Rotties?!! She was amazing from start to finish. This is truly the first time I came home from a trip and the dogs seemed well loved and taken care of, no anxiety from them at all. Thanks, Amelie! Rover friends, look no further and book her now...just not when I need her ; )”
“I cannot say enough good things about Liz. She went over and above anything we could’ve asked for when watching Luke. That included staying late because my flight was delayed coming back from a business trip given the opportunity I would definitely select Liz again.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for over 2 years now! I would love to take care of your fur babies! Let me show you’re fur baby some fun!! I currently have free time on my hands and would love to take care of your fur babies!!! I love taking care of pets and will show them all the love in the world! I make sure that the pet has everything they need in order to feel safe and making sure the pet is happy and satisfied with everything!
“Kaylyn was great with our puppy Teddy! It was our first time leaving him overnight. She sent us updates and photos of how he was doing to ease our minds.”
About: People have always told me that I am comparable caring even to pets. They deserve every bit of kindness just like people! A safe and reliable environment at your home! I am able to walk and feed the animals before I go to work and after I come home. As well as having off on Monday& Tuesdays. I can walk and feed your pets in the morning, throughout the day when I’m off I can show them the attention and love they need. I will make sure they always have fresh food&water. As well as making them feel at home when They are away!

Linglestown pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were looking for someone to not only treat our pets as their own but someone we could trust and feel comfortable having them house set with our pets. We were fortunate enough to find that in Wendy. She’s thoughtful, conscientious, and friendly. She took good care of our pets and provided updates throughout the week. She gets 5 stars from us. We will definitely use her again.
Jaden quickly won over both our doggos and cats. He even managed to get our super duper scaredy cat to like him! He diligently provided the additional care we requested like watering plants, taking them for walks, and playing with their favorite toys. We also came home to a well kept home. We will be using him again and highly recommend.
Mary took excellent care of my puppy Ginger and my home while I was away on vacation. She sent lots of photos and she was reliable. My plans changed a few times last minute and she was flexible with me on that. Thanks to Mary I was able to have a stress free vacation. I absolutely recommend Mary for any pet sitting and housesitting services.
Brandy did an excellent job watching my boxer, Walter, while we were out of town for a few nights. Would definitely book her again for future trips!
We recently had the pleasure of hiring Savannah to care for our sweet but spicy girl, while we were out of town and we couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. She was punctual, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. We highly recommend Savannah to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and responsible dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future! Thanks again Savannah!
We were so grateful that Jessica was able to accommodate us last minute. She took great care of our dog and sent lots of updates. We would definitely book her again in the future!
