About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages and energy levels. I'm comfortable with walks, feeding schedules and giving lots of love! I'm reliable and will treat your pet like they're my own! I'm currently a college student at Shippensburg University and am home for summer break. I work part time as a lifeguard so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! I am very adaptable to every pets needs. I'm very detail oriented and attentive, if you have any specific instructions on how to care for your pet you can be sure they will be followed!
“Sheila was great! I’ve never used Rover before and never left our pets with someone other than family. Sheila came for a meet and greet before we finalized the booking (I was afraid our wild pups might scare her off) and all my anxiety was instantly relieved. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. She had great questions and explained her usual process, making it very obvious that she has plenty of experience. I didn’t have any worries about leaving our pets and home in her care. Sheila sent updates and pics during the week and everything was in perfect condition when we got home. I can’t imagine anything that would have made the experience any better! Thank you Sheila!”
“Phoebe house/dog sat for us. She took excellent care of Rocket and sent lots of pictures. She paid attention to all of our instructors and set our minds at ease that all was going well. Phoebe is a true animal lover and I won't hesitate to request her services again”
“Gabrielle did a great job with Maggie! Gabrielle is very responsive and easy to work with. Maggie got lots of exercise and I got lots of pictures. I would definitely use Gabrielle again!”
“Andrew pays great attention to my fur babies and when I come home I can tell that he has paid attention to them and given them the best care. So grateful to have someone to rely on when I travel and work late”
“We couldn't be happier with the way Eren and Luca cared for our two young cats while we were away! They gave them so much love and attention, and were very patient with our skittish kitty, monitoring him carefully to make sure he was getting enough food when he was too anxious to eat at regular mealtimes. They were great about checking in and sent us lots of video and photo updates, making it easy for us to relax during our trip in the confidence that our cats were being well taken care of. They followed our instructions carefully and left our house just as they found it. We highly recommend them!”
“I was initially hesitant to use Rover, but I'm so glad I did! Casey was absolutely fantastic—great communication throughout the entire stay and super responsive to my questions. She sent us pictures, which I appreciated so much! It was clear my dogs were well taken care of and happy. I am so happy to have a responsible and trustworthy care taker for my fur babies. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“We can’t recommend Alexandria enough! Her first time sitting for us involved rain/snow and she was flexible with everything that comes with dogs and weather! She was very communicative and took great care of our dogs. Was a huge relief to know they were well taken care of and happy with her! We will defiantly book with Alexandria again!”
“David R. Is by far the finest Dog Sitter I have encountered in my 30+ years as a pet owner. David cared for my two French bulldogs, Alma and Jessup, for five nights while I attended a conference. David sent comprehensive daily updates along with adorable pictures of my pups. He promptly responded to any questions and all inquiries! I would recommend David to anyone looking to pamper their pets!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years and have been around all kinds of dogs my whole life. I’m experienced with different temperaments, routines, and care needs, and I always provide patient, attentive care. I mainly have experience with older dogs (1 year to senior) and don’t shy away from the many needs dogs require in their twilight years. I primarily have been dog sitting for a close friend with two beagle mixes and can tell you they gave me enough experience to be able to handle the high energy and stubbornness that comes with their breed. I’m a huge animal lover so it’s all worth it in the end when our furry friends are happy and thriving! I work a full time job 3:30 to midnight so my hours of availability are mornings until 2PM and I have off on weekends so I have plenty of time to play with your pups on those days. I take the time to double check with pet parents booking with me to see if my schedule works for them so I can make sure I am the best fit for you and your pets! I take great care in respecting the homes of pets and owners when I’m providing care. I strive to prevent messes when possible and make sure pets are fed, watered and their spaces are well maintained and home owners spaces are left the same or better than when they departed.
“Justina has housesat for us twice now (once for about two weeks and once for a weekend) and watched my two pups and cat. She’s done an awesome job, kept us informed, sent pictures, and left the house very clean. We’ll be using her again anytime we travel!!”

Tracy is amazing! We had to go to West Virginia for the weekend and I didn’t have to worry one bit about our pups getting the best care! Not only did she feed them and let them out, she took time to do some training / games with them and even taught them new things! She was very attentive; sent lots of pictures and videos! Also, when the girls were playing one of them got hurt. She took super good care of her by keeping an eye on it and washed her face daily to ensure no infection! Not only did she take super good care of the pups, we came home to a perfectly maintained home! She did all of the dishes, mopped the floors (since it was snowing and there was salt and marks all over) and even replaced our milk because she used it! We didn't even require any of these things! To say Tracy is awesome is an understatement! We will definitely be using her again!
David R. Is by far the finest Dog Sitter I have encountered in my 30+ years as a pet owner. David cared for my two French bulldogs, Alma and Jessup, for five nights while I attended a conference. David sent comprehensive daily updates along with adorable pictures of my pups. He promptly responded to any questions and all inquiries! I would recommend David to anyone looking to pamper their pets!
We were totally comfortable leaving our home and our pets in Kylie’s care while we were away. The photos she send every day kept us feeling close to our fur babies. We returned home to find two happy pets, a neat and tidy home and Kylie even went a step further and watered my flowers and picked the ripe tomatoes! We would definitely use Kylie again. We were comfortable with her upon our first meeting.
Amanda is incredible! She cared for my pet like they were her own, kept me updated the whole time, and left my home spotless. I felt completely at ease while I was away. I’ll absolutely book her again! She’s trustworthy, kind, intuitive, and clearly takes pride in what she does.
