“Another great experience with Crystal! Our kitties came home bright eyed and with shiny coats to tell us they had a grand time. We couldn't ask for more! Communication throughout their stay was daily and let us know how well the stay was progressing. We are thankful to have Crystal as a host for our cats!”
“Michaela is very friendly to deal with. She took good care of our pup, and she was communicative about how he was doing and also about any changes in her schedule. She is close by for us, so I'm sure we'll take our dog to her again.”
“Emily took care of our Yorkie (fleabite) while we were away for 2 weeks. I can’t thank her enough. She kept us informed daily and sent pics. She went out of her way to pick up meds at the vets. I highly recommend Emily if you need a pet sitter.”
“Erin is awesome. We have a Golden who gets very anxious and likes to be near a human at all times. Erin took amazing care of our dog. Excellent communication with us. Beautiful fenced yard & our dog had a blast playing with her dog. Highly recommend and have already made another booking.”
“This was the first time we’ve been away from our pup and Mandy made sure she’s well taken care of. Thank you for accommodating our little Bebon! ♡ You are like a family to her. God bless!”
“Dannah is amazing! My anxious little guy warmed to her immediately and had a fantastic stay. Dannah is extremely communicative and responsive - she is truly one of the best sitters I've worked with.”
“Deanna was an amazing dog boarder. She was extremely responsive to all communications and flexible in accommodating any changes. Spencer and Mia had a blast and settled right into a safe, welcoming, and loving home. Deanna sent copious amounts of picture and video updates. Deanna will absolutely be first on my list of boarders if we return to Lewisburg.”
“Our dog Charlie had another great stay with Debbie! It is clear from the pictures and videos she sends that he is happy and well taken care of while we're away. We never need to worry about him when he stays with Debbie.”
“We are so lucky to have Celestia and Ryan to take care of our senior dog Fiona. Pictures were sent several times a day easing my mind. Fiona takes medicine and I am never worried about her welfare while we are away. Thank you for always taking care of our sweet girl.”
“Instant karma. Bronx quickly became a velcro dog to Jen and she got roped into his boo boo eyes. He adapted to her 3 little ones (and they to him) such that they could lounge in proximity on the deck out back. Jen will most certainly be a go-to sitter for us in the future. She was also quick to accommodate my day-early departure. Thanks, Jen!!”
“Alexandra has walked my dog for me in the past and just boarded him for the weekend for me too. If I could give her more than five stars- I would. She’s a sweetheart and I know my dog is always safe & entertained with her. She even went above and beyond and came and picked him up for me to make things easier. She sent pictures & videos throughout the whole weekend which we loved! I’d definitely recommend her and will always use her in the future. Thanks again Alex!!! ☺️”
“We found Megan on Rover and after we met her for a meet and greet prior to our trip, megan was so kind and knowledgeable since she has 5 of her own dogs, trains dogs and had a great way of how she would care for our dog during trip. She sent us pictures and updates daily that gave us peace of mind she was in great hands. And we will be certainly be asking Megan for our all future trips to care for our dog.”
“Heather was absolutely amazing!! I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to watch my fur baby! She has such a kind soul and her love for animals is so easy to feel and a joy to witness. She sent me daily updates, pictures and videos without me having to ask! My mind was at ease the whole time I was away and I know she ensured Booboo was comfortable as he could be. I can’t thank her enough. I’m so happy to have found her, she’s truly a gem 🩷”
“Kerrie was GREAT! She was so engaged and responsive, and treated my pup just like the rest of her family. I appreciated her specific questions around care and all of the pictures and updates she sent to me. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quality sitter. 5 stars.”
“We had such a great experience with Rosa. Upon meeting her, she had such a warm approach towards watching animals. And when she met our Baxter, it was just the same. While we were away, she sent us pictures of him to give my wife and myself comfort that we made the right decisions. She also abided by our food parameters for Baxter's health. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to leave their pet in good hands.”
“Nicole has watched Koba 3 times and always available even at the last minute, she takes good care of Koba and very reasonable if you need an extra few hours or day. Would recommend all day”
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.
“Liz and her family did an amazing job accommodating my Beagle Pitbull Mix Mollie ♥️. Sent lots of pictures and we're flexible with travel delays. I could tell she had a great time and was in safe, welcoming hands ✨♥️”
“Amy was great!!! We were in town for a wedding and we were able to enjoy the l wedding knowing Charlie was well cared for and loved on. I would recommend Amy to anyone who wants the best for their furry friends. If we are ever in Williamsport area again we will definitely use Amy again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Oaklyn home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Oaklyn.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Oaklyn sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
