Top rated Mercersville pet sitters


“Gaye was incredible with our anxious dog. She was patient and calm and made him feel safe while we were away. Now he LOVES her. We will definitely be using her again!!”


“Mandi was incredibly perfect for my family! I booked her for my parents while I was a few states away, and Mandi was awesome at communicating and setting up a visit with my parents! Their cat (was originally my cat, but my other cats would chase her) has a habit of grabbing her tail which leaves some minor scratches and requires some ointment application. Mandi applied it as needed and let us know when that was! She was also able to adjust her visits as my parents ended up leaving later than anticipated, and got back a day early. I would most certainly recommend Mandi for your pet sitting needs!”


“Heather has done an amazing job with my pup Courage. Since he's so young, i have her dropping by twice a day while I am at work, and she sends me video and photo updates of my pup. Courage seems to be warming up to her and I appreciate that he's in good hands.”


“Robin took care of our cats for a week while we went on our first vacation. We were so nervous to leave them for that long. Once again, she was the best and we are so grateful for her. Not only did she send pictures, updates and took care of them, but we came home to the house in order and cat trash taken care of. She is by far the best!!! Thank you Robin for everything!”


“Kristen has been so amazing with Sulley! He is normally hesitant around new people and he took to her so quickly! She is great at playing with him and respects my instructions. She is empathetic and goes beyond to help — even my sweet four year old cat who is afraid of everyone immediately walked out to greet her! She is going to be a regular visitor for Sulley and myself. ❤️”


“Rebecca was amazing! She was flexible with a short notice change and it was much appreciated! Dependable and right on time! I loved the feedback and pictures! Will definitely book with her again!! Thank you so much, Rebecca! 🌟”


“For our first time using rover we were very pleased with Cari and the services provided. I felt comfortable with leaving my animals in her care. All her visits were right at the time agreed upon and the dogs were well taken care of with updates at every drop in.”


“Dianne gave our pup the VIP treatment! She went above and beyond our expectations for drop in visits. She treated him with special Santa treats for Christmas! I felt comfortable knowing I was leaving him in good hands. She included videos in her Rover cards and was on time, every time. Blu can’t wait to see her again soon!”


“Kelly is amazing and my GSD King loves her. She is timely and flexible and gives the best love to my main man. I receive pictures of her visit and that makes me happy. I would HIGHLY recommend Kelly with your fur baby.”


“Arnie is incredible! He came over a few days before my first booking to meet my 2 dogs. My senior dog warmed right up to him, and my 3 year old rescue even allowed some scratches and to be held. I was able to tell they both felt safe and secure with Arnie around. My senior needs a little extra help up and down the stairs, and I’m still working on leash confidence with the 3 year old. These things didn’t faze Arnie or stand out as a problem. He was ready to tackle them head on. This made me feel safe and secure knowing my babies would be in goods hands with him. I’m so thrilled that Arnie will be a buddy for my pups, and give me some peace of mind when I have a long work day!”


“Karen left a great first impression with my kitty and I! She asked and answered all our questions, spent some nice cuddle time with Mister, and gave me confidence about her future visits. Many thanks Karen!”


“Lindsey is extremely kind, prompt and very meticulous about her work with animals. Our dogs both enjoyed their time with her, especially our boy Max who was treated to a walk to his favorite location in Martinsburg. We are looking forward to future visits with Lindsey, and would definitely recommend her. 😊”


About: Hi I’m Kate! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life! Dogs, Cats, Birds, Reptiles, Ferrets, Rabbits, Hamsters, Chickens, and Goats! My childhood dog was a toy poodle and now I have 2 German shepherds! All raised from pups. I’m comfortable working with all pet animals size or age doesn’t matter I love em! Im currently in college studying sports medicine, im hoping this can become a part time job for me! I am available Monday-Friday anywhere from 8am to 3pm. Your fur baby has my best interests! Whether we’re on a walk or just checking in, I’ve worked with harnesses and collars. My animals are my life and I 100% understand that they’re your’s too!

About: I grew up with dogs and have trained up two puppies in the last five years, one of them was a hunting dog. Currently I have a four-year-old tabby named Coco! I love to be active and play outside but I’m also happy to just sit and love on your fur babies, throw around toys or whatever makes your animals happy! I typically work Monday through Thursday until about 3 PM. I’m happy to do evening care if you’re working late or if you need someone for a long weekend to pop in! I am a big fan of the philosophy, meet people or in this case pets where they are. I pride myself on being respectful, and will essentially do whatever is asked of me, to make your animal or fur baby the most comfortable!

“Thanks Teri! You did a terrific job! I would highly recommend Teri to watch your pets. From the first time she met my boys they took a liking to her and I could tell they were going to be friends. I don’t like to leave my pets with just anyone, they mean to much to me, but I will leave them with Teri anytime! Thanks again Teri!!”


About: I have stepped up and taken care of pets from family members since I can remember. I am very active and love walking and engaging with any dog and being a companion to any furry friend. I have always valued dogs being an integral part of any family. I am a college student but at nights and weekends is when I am most available. Throughout the day I am available in between classes to stop by and check in. Whenever I am home I will offer companionship and am all for frequent walks and/ or playing. I live with 3 other responsible people who love animals and can keep them company as well.

About: I have been a dog sitter and walker since I was 12. I had a senior pup at home who required a lot of care, so I consider myself knowledgeable with older dogs. I am a recent college graduate looking to walk dogs on the weekends. I have plenty of time to play with your pup(s) between study sessions for my board exam! I have a cat who roams freely about the cabin, so I would prefer to play with your dog at your home or outside. I will respect any given boundaries for a walk or ride to a park.

“Stephanie was an absolute DREAM for my babies. I went out of town for a few days and normally my babies get a bit of anxiety when I leave for more than a day. When I came home, they were as happy as can be and we’re not distraught at all. She took such good care of them and always kept in contact with pictures. This is more than a job for her, she truly will love your babies and treat them as her own!”


“Kirsten did an excellent job. Responded to any question I had. We felt comfortable having her in our house. We had a good time while away, and did not worry about our kitties care.”

Katelyn O.
“While she hasn't watched my pets for me before I can say that she is beyond devoted to her own. All I ever hear about is how her pets are doing, how they're vet trip went, what she has to do next for their health, and what she wants to do next for they're wellbeing and enjoyment. If given the opportunity and materials she could and will care for any pet.”


Taylor G.
“Taylor has overnight sat for my dog. I have a very protective and reactive Australian Shepherd who barks and lunges every time someone enters the home. We have a very short list of people who can help with him because it takes confidence to not be intimidated by his antics. She does very well with Roo and follows all instructions on his care, would definitely recommend!”

Amanda B.
“Amanda B is one of the most responsible, caring and animal loving individuals I've ever known. In middle and high school, she took care of many of the neighborhood pets while neighbors were away. They trusted her implicitly with their dogs, cats, ferrets and even hamsters. Her services were in high demand! She grew up with 2 dogs from the time she was 8 years old and loved them with all of her heart and soul. She bathed, fed, walked and played with them throughout the course of their lives. It broke her heart when she was not home for the loss of one of her 2 dogs, Cosmo, because she was away at college, so she always gives extra love to the remaining family dog, Henry. I would trust her with the lives of all of our animals.”
