“Chance is THE BEST!! Highly recommend him. My cat is normally pretty shy but Chance is like the cat whisperer. This was a repeat booking and I plan to continue to use him in the future.”
“Heather did an amazing job of watching my 3 cats while I traveled. They were well taken care of and loved. As a first time Rover user, I believe she went above and beyond what I expected and I will definitely rebook with her.”
“She Came through for me when I needed it most with life threatening issues that required an ER visit and in need of a cat sitter to care for my 5 month old Maine Coon Kitten even asking 4 visits a day scheduled at an hour a piece. Very easy to work with.”
“Emily F did a superb job of catsitting my cat for a week. I've had other sitters in the past, but Emily was by far the best. She texted me everyday with an update of how Kitty was doing. That sounds like a minor thing, but it is appreciated immensely. Good job Emily F, and thankyou!”
“It was great to get to meet Anna and have her watch my dog Millie. Anna was great with her and was very detailed when filling out the rover care card so I knew just how well Millie was doing (photos and comments). Will absolutely be rebooking with Anna in the future!”
“Denise was great with my 2 cats! Very responsive, friendly, and provided photos and comments for every drop in visit while I was on vacation. I felt at ease knowing my girls were taken care of! Would definitely use her again in the future!”
“Ivy did a unique request for me by bringing my dog to my wedding venue for pictures. She was very professional and kind. I would recommend for her for pet services of any kind!!”
About: I have experience with puppies thru senior care. I understand the anxiety of your dog being home alone and I'm happy to entertain them in my home and show them love and attention. I'm a stay-at-home dog/cat mom. My schedule is wide open. My day is focused on quality time with my furry kids. I'm available to give your furbabies all the attention they deserve. I have a fenced in yard and a dog that lives to spend time outside in the sun. And lots of space/furniture for furry babies to lounge on.
About: Hi, my name is Sara Fox! I’m 30 years old! I’ve had dogs in my family since I could walk. I’m very flexible and if something comes up, I let you know ahead of time. I’ve done pet sitting for many years. My family and I have a boxer with lots of energy. I have a huge heart for dogs and dogs have been a huge part of my life. I enjoy doing anything outside and would be more than happy to take your dog(s) on hikes. I hope that you take into consideration what I have provided you and look forward to hearing from you soon! Enjoy your day! Thank you! I currently don't have my own animal. I take care of other's animals and have always been good with that. Hope to hear from you! I would treat any clients home like my own. I want to leave it the way the it was when I arrived at your home to take care of your animal(s).
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10, and cats a little less, whether that be walking, pet sitting, or just overall care. They really are a mans best friend! I am currently a student with a flexible schedule. I am able to work around owners schedules to give their pet the best. Weekends and evenings are also good for me. When it comes to caring for pets I always follow the owners lead. I love to treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they have a fun time.
About: I’ve taken care of animals, including dogs, cats, & fish for family members, family friends, and I have always been given good reports! I love animals so much! I’m working part-time, so I’m mostly available whenever! I’m almost always available to love on and care for your pets, just communicate with me on when and how your pets need care and we’ll make it work ◡̈ Safety and Trust: I always prioritize a Meet & Greet before booking. It lets me learn your dog’s specific quirks, house rules, and exact feeding or medication routines directly from you. When we go out for walks, my phone stays in my pocket and my eyes stay on your pup. I don't let strange dogs approach us, and I always double-check that collars and harnesses are securely fastened before opening the front door. Because I am house sitting, your pet gets to stay in their own comfortable, familiar environment, which naturally keeps their anxiety low while you are away. My Approach in Your Home: Since I don't have pets of my own, your pet gets 100% of my undivided attention and affection. I treat your home with total respect by keeping it clean, quiet, and secure exactly how you left it. When I'm in your space, my main goal is to maintain your dog's normal day to day routine so they barely even notice you're gone.
About: I've had dogs of all sizes since I was young! I'm currently a mom to a very active senior pitbull and two cats. I have experience with giving medications including injections and I know the importance of preserving a stable routine for pups when their parents are away. I'm frequently the go-to dog watcher in my group of friends! I'm working part-time remotely and part-time in person in the evenings. I'm an early riser so that means I'm available for care throughout the day until about 4 and then available for evening care from 8pm on! I know daily routines are important so I will strive to keep your pet's routine the same to the best of my ability! I can check in for potty breaks, walks, playtime, whatever your pet needs!
About: I volunteer at the SPCA walking dogs and caring for the cats. I'm a lover of all animals. I'm very clean and responsible and care for all animals as I would a family member. I'm currently working full-time, but I'm available after 4 and all weekends and holidays. I have a dog and fours cats of my own and this seems to work for them. They are very happy. I take my dog on long walks and provide him enrichment treats and toys. I always check when leaving to make sure that nothing is out he can hurt himself with. I'm also very strict on cleaning the cat boxes as I don't want them to get sick or smell up the house. I will clean up after your pets and I will make sure they are safe and happy.

About: I have had dogs and cats all of my life, and I haven't found a pet that doesn't like me. I currently own a German Shepherd dog and a Jug dog. Dog walking is my forte. I am originally from PA, have lived all over the country (when I was in the Air Force). I am available primarily in the morning and afternoons. Other times available upon request. I am able to handle all types of animals, including big and smalll, young and old, aggressive and timid. At the moment, I am available most days. I will make sure that your pet is taken care of with the upmost professionalism, as well as the personal touch that is needed with our babies. Available most days, I currently have Sundays and Mondays off of work. I work 1st shift, and can come home on my hour long break My dogs are well fed and always have water available. They get treats periodically. Outside breaks occur ever few hours that I'm home, and outside play is always a great time
About: Large Animal Science graduate, have completed the vet tech, dog grooming, and agility courses at BCAHS. Experience with diverse/exotic animal caretaking rolls, canine cpr certified, lots of experience with difficult dog breeds. My schedule with work is very flexible. Usually I tend to walk my dog for a 1-2 hours a day. It is extremely important that my dog Nala gets exercise each day to make sure she stays happy and healthy. Sometimes I also take my cat on the walks as well (he loves spending time outside with his sister with his harness and leash on!). Weekends have much more flexibility with my schedule. It is extremely important to make sure that any animal feels comfortable in their environment. Giving them the opportunity to take bathroom breaks and keeping pets on their normal schedule is very important. Giving pets access to fresh drinking water, specific foods, and medications as needed is also crucial. Providing proper exercise and mental enrichment only helps to further improve an animal’s experience in their surroundings as well.

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 .
As of September 2026, there are 168 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Montoursville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Montoursville 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.

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.
