“Ashley took great care of my home and my pup Rue while I was out of town for a few days. She followed all of my instructions and kept to Rue’s typical routine, and was very accommodating to some last-minute schedule changes. I will definitely keep Ashley in mind for my next trip out of town!”

4. Cydney E.
“Cydney is my most reliable and trusting pet sitter. My fur baby absolutely loves when Cydney cares for her, knowing she’ll be showered with the same love, attention, and exercise as normal. I can always count on Cydney to lend a hand with my fur baby when in a jam! I have referred her to many pet families and have always received positive feedback.”


5. Megan P.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats of my own for the past 18 years, and offering services on Rover since 2021. I love going for long walks with the pups and cuddling with kitties. My last pooch crossed the rainbow bridge at 14 years, so I am familiar with senior dog care and administering topical and oral medications. I’m home on weekends, and working a 9-5 during the week. Dogs who are not kid friendly would be more of a challenge, but feel free to message and we can see how to make it work. I have a 2 year old tuxedo cat named BingBong at my home in New Castle and 1/2 custody of a very friendly 5 year old lab/Australian shepherd mix dog named Onyx. I work a full time 9-5 Monday through Friday, but happy to stop by before and after work. My schedule is pretty open on the weekends! I prefer drop in visits and walks in your pet’s home, environment with limited availability for boarding, house sitting, and doggie day care upon request.


6. Daniel S.
“Daniel is a caring devoted and very responsible pet caregiver. He is an avid runner and hiker and would be the ideal companion for energetic pups. He also takes great care of our high maintenance kitty. I feel completely confident knowing our pets are in great hands with Daniel. I highly recommend his services. Katie Monahan”

8. Alexandra M.

“Alexandra was amazing! She is super sweet and communicative, sent lots of updates and photos/videos and was great with our dogs. Our two dogs seemed really content and happy with her around—even our Akita. I was a little stressed out having a stranger watch them while we were traveling, but she soothed my fears with all of her updates and asking questions about anything I’d missed in our notes about them. I’d definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs and would be happy to have her watch our doggos again.”

“Grace was outstanding! I did a meet and greet to make sure my dogs liked her and my one dog that does not like people loved her. She petted her during the entire meet and greet. She was very responsible, professional, and attentive to my dogs. She even had to give medication to one of my dogs and that went flawless. She sent me lots of pictures and responded to me when I checked in (worried fur-mom). My house was spotless when I returned. I would definitely recommend her and I will be booking with her again!”
