About: I have been house sitting and watching animals since I have been in middle school. I have also had a dog since I was in kindergarten with my family adopting a new puppy there years ago which I helped train. I am a college student taking a summer class at Lebanon Valley College which leaves me free all day on the weekends and on Wednesdays in which there is no class. I am also available to stop by for a bit in the evenings after class lets out. I love playing with dogs and would love to any type of dog on a walk/run and promise that I will be able to tire out the dog before I do. I very familiar with how to clean up after pets and will maintain a safe and clean environment
About: I enjoy going for walks. I've had all sizes of dogs and don't mind the larger ones who think they're still lap dogs! I always enjoy trying to teach the floofs new tricks. Don't mind giving the occasional bath and a good brushing too. I currently am a stay at home mom during the days. I coach volleyball 2 nights a week and travel some weekends for tournaments. I would much rather put my time to good use by playing or spending time with your fur baby. In your home your rules will be respected. Messes will be cleaned. Pets will be fed, played with, taken out and whatever it is you would require of me during my time with your pet.
“Lauren took such good care of our boxer Walter and our home while we were away. Very thorough and communicative leading up to and throughout the stay. Would definitely book with Lauren again.”
“AMAZING!!! Susan was wonderful, and so accommodating. She took fantastic care of our furry family members and our home. I had so much peace of mind knowing they were in wonderful hands. Thank you so much Susan!!!”
About: Hello, My name is Hailey and I love pets. I was a nanny for two years and during that time I pet sat for the familys dog. I loved him so much that, with the owners permission I brought him to my house to say for a while when the family was away. Currently, I cannot take care of pets at my current residence but I would love to help pet sit at your residence and make your pet feel safe and at home. I can either walk or do check ins after 3:30. During the weekend I would be more then happy to do the same or pet sit overnight or however long you need. The care expectations and routine you have for your pet are extremely important to me. So please let me know if any specific care needs your fur baby needs and I will be happy to accommodate.

Palmyra pet parents share their Rover experiences
Got it! Here’s a revised version that leaves out any mention of your dog liking her, while still making Amanda look great: ⸻ Amanda was an excellent dog sitter professional, responsible, and incredibly communicative throughout our time away. She followed all the care instructions we left and kept us updated regularly, which gave us real peace of mind. One thing we especially appreciated was her honesty. When our dog had an upset stomach and threw up one day, Amanda let us know right away. She handled it calmly, cleaned it up, and made sure everything was okay without making a big deal out of it or trying to sugarcoat the situation. That kind of transparency really stood out and made us feel confident that our dog was being well looked after. Even when things weren’t going perfectly, Amanda stayed on top of everything and kept us in the loop. We’d absolutely use her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who is both reliable and honest.
