“Linda was a wonderful sitter for our two high energy pups. We booked her over the holidays and she went above and beyond. She gave them all the care and affection they needed and was very open in her communication with us. Her dog Nio enjoyed the company of our dogs and was a great play mate for them. Based on how happy our dogs looked in the many photos she sent us, we would highly recommend Linda for your pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve gained abundant experience from pet sitting numerous dogs and cats over the past years along with raising our family pets. I have a decently flexible schedule, so I am able to step in on short notice if needed. I graduated from the University of Scranton earning my bachelor's degree in Biology. I also earned my associates in Medical Laboratory Technology at Penn State in 2025. I currently don’t have any pets, but I look forward to adopting a dachshund in the future. I would consider myself an organized and responsible individual. I am able to comfortably recognize an animal's behavior and their needs whether that is giving extra cuddles or just love from a distance. While I am taking care of your pets, your home will be in good hands. My goal is to make your time away from home as stress-free as possible by providing daily, detailed updates. I am looking forward to spending time with your fur babies! - Brittany I currently work day shift at UPMC as a Medical Laboratory Scientist. My schedule is fairly flexible, especially during late evenings and on weekends and holidays! I want your pet to feel comfortable in their own home with a complete stranger. I take my time with each animal learning and accepting their boundaries. My goal is to provide mental stimulation and to give them love while their loved ones are away.
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.

“I had a fantastic experience with Laura and it was such a blessing coming across her on Rover! From start to finish, she was incredibly professional and caring. My two fur babies took to her and her family right away, which put me at ease immediately. It’s very clear that she has a genuine love for animals, and my pups were well taken care of during their stay. Her communication was excellent throughout the stay as well! She kept me updated with many photos and messages, which I really appreciated! It was reassuring to know things were going well. I would highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable, kind and caring dog sitter!”

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
