“Taylor was gracious enough to accept a last minute assignment having never being to my house to meet the dogs. Upon arrival she found my one dog abt aggressive at the door. She called me and suggested asking a neighbor knee the dogs to help her the first time and that was the ticket. I loved her assertive nature. Took care of my pups and communicated every time. Would highly recommend Taylor in the future”
“Becky was absolutely fantastic with my cat, Captain. She took excellent care of him while I was away and gave me many photos while I missed him. Could not speak higher of her”
“Mae did an amazing job stopping by to watch our dog Theo! She was reliable, caring, and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated and made sure Theo got plenty of attention and care during her visit. We’d definitely have Mae watch Theo again and recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Isabella was fantastic! The pets loved her like they loved her. She communicated very well with me, always answering my messages promptly. I hope she is always available to take care of my pets.”
“Kasandra was so kind to help me with a last minute drop in. Great visit Kasandra was very kind to my 4 legged child and very respectful to our home. Could not have asked for anything more!! We definitely would use her again. If you need a sitter… no need to look further Kasandra is great!”
“Taylor was great with our 2 dogs, one of which is a senior with dementia. She was a huge help and went above and beyond what was expected with drop-ins. I highly recommend her.”
“Chentel came highly recommended by a good friend of mine and I see why! She goes above and beyond to ensure my fur baby is happy and content. She is extremely communicative and keeps me in the loop. My pup can be challenging at times, but Chentel has been so patient with her. It is evident that she has had a LOT of experience with animals. She has a great energy about her and it’s so comforting to know my dog is safe with her!”
“Very friendly and a fantastic pet sitter! Lynn went above and behind to come out and meet our dog ahead of time and to send multiple videos and photos while we were away so we could see how he and our cat were doing! We only needed someone to let the dog out and make sure he was fed, but she stayed a bit and played with him so he wouldn’t be lonely. Thank you!”
“David took great care of our pup! She warmed up to him quickly and was very happy on his visits. He had great communication and shared lots of photos from his visits! Will definitely book him again and would recommend to anyone.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve spent about 20 plus years caring for both dogs and cats. I’m very patient, reliable, and attentive, and I know how important it is for pet parents to feel comfortable leaving their pets in someone else’s care. I’ll always treat your pets like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m available on evenings and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m also able to provide overnight care on weekends and weekdays if needed. During the week (Monday–Thursday), I do work in an office during the day, but I’m able to stop by regularly for potty breaks, walks, feeding, and quality time with your pets throughout the day to make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. While I won’t be offering boarding in my own home, I always treat my clients’ homes with the utmost respect when providing overnight care. I make sure to clean up after myself and any messes your pet may make, and I care for your home as if it were my own.
About: I am very patient and treat every dog like they’re my own. I will give them a lot of love and respect. Thank you !! I have a lot of extra free time and will be willing to make some time for your doggies!! Whenever you need me:) thank you!! I have a huge green grass area in front of my house, a great backyard at my gma’s house and a great neighborhood for walks!
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have been pet-sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since age 12. I have taken many dog training classes and understand dogs’ needs and body language. I am a therapist so I have a good understanding of behavioral principles and understand how to be patient while building trust. I require a meet and greet before confirming a booking so your dog is familiar with me/my house and we can ensure they get along with my dogs. I work from home full-time, and typically take a break every 3 hours, at which point the dogs are let out into the fenced-in backyard. I can walk dogs in the morning (around 8 or 9) and/or the evening (around 5 or 6). I have a fenced-in yard and two very friendly and easy-going dogs (50lbs and 75lbs). I am able to crate dogs if needed (you provide the crate) or separate dogs in different areas of the house if any dogs need a break from the others. As I view dogs as part of the family, they are allowed on furniture and beds and receive plenty of attention and snuggles.

Mechanicsburg cat parents share their Rover experiences
Lynn was great to work with. She really seemed to enjoy taking care of my cats. Her daily updates and pictures were much appreciated. She even got the shyer Inky to socialize. She even accommodated a last-minute schedule change due to the weather. I would definitely hire her again.
Elena was fantastic with our kitties. She did all that was asked of her and when we returned home after a week away, our cats were very indifferent to our arrival home which shows us they were well taken care of and given lots of love in our absence. We will definitely be using Elena again to watch our fur babies when needed!
