“I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Katherine. She takes such good care of my babies while we are gone. She gives me constant updates and pics because she knows I'm a nervous mom. Don't know what we'd do without her.”
“Chelsea was an absolutely wonderful sitter to our dog and three cats! Our dog is anxious and reactive and from our meet and greet to the actual day of sitting, Chelsea respected his space, followed all of our instructions, and went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. She also was great with our cats that all warmed up to her so quickly. We are so grateful to Chelsea for the updates she gave us, as we were actually able to enjoy our weekend knowing our pets were in good hands. Will definitely be hiring Chelsea in the future and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“We happily had Laurie spend a long weekend with our 2 dogs at our house and everything was great! She sent lots of photos of the dogs and they seemed very much like they enjoyed themselves. She even got my picky dog to eat. Respectful with the house and we returned to happy dogs and a clean house.”
“Brenda is conscientious and cares about keeping me informed about how my Luka was doing with a new sitter. She is generous and takes the time to visit to get to know me, my pet, and her needs. I will definitely have Brenda back to care for my fur girl!”
About: I've had animals since I was little, cats, dogs, reptiles, ferrets, and I've loved them all as if they were my children, specific dietary or exercise needs is no problem for me. A pet to me is a part of the family. I'm currently working part time, available Monday through Friday on most weeks, I'll house sit for up to a week and a half. I currently don't have a license because of covid slowing me down, but I am working on it and someone can drop me off at the location. I have a fenced backyard and my childhood dog had many issues later on in life so dietary or medication is no issue for me. The family dog I have now is the most stubborn dog I have ever met, having to work with him has taught me how to deal with stubborn or slightly aggressive dogs.
“This was the first time we left our puppy Fiona. We left her with Evangeline and couldn’t be more pleased. Fiona loves her. Our puppy and home were very well taken care of. We would definitely use Evangeline again!”
“Christine put us at ease about leaving our pups with her. She communicated with us multiple times leading up to it to make sure there were no problems. She provided multiple updates throughout. Our dogs were clearly content and well taken care of. We will absolutely continue to book her. Thanks again, Christine!”
About: Hello!! My name is Briana, but I go by Bri :). I’ve been caring for animals most of my life. I”ve had guinea pigs, hamsters, cats, dogs, and fish. I have my own cat for over 5 years and have regularly helped friends and family with their pets while they are on vacation. Whether that’s walking them, feeding them, playtime or cuddles. I’m all about giving your fur babies a comfortable and loving space as well as giving you a peace of mind! :) I currently work a full time job Monday-Friday. I get off around 4:30-5 each day (depends) and I’m pretty much free on most weekends :) I prefer not to care in my home since I still live with my parents. However, in your home, I would make sure your pet gets the love and care they need and deserve! I will make sure they stay hydrated, fed, loved for, play with them, even take them on walks or cuddle and watch a movie! :)
About: Hello, my name is Hayley. I have 14 years plus experience with pet care. I have experience in feeding, taking walks, administering medication, and giving animals all the love and attention that they deserve. I have watched 10 animals at one time including goats, dogs, cats, birds, and fish. Feel free to reach out and ask any questions. Can talk about price too! I have a lot of open availability, not currently working right now. I'm gearing my way towards spending more time with animals, ensuring their happiness, having a fun time together, and learning something new from every animal in my care. I will ensure that your furbabie(s) will get the best care, attention, and love that they deserve. Knowing about an animals behavior ahead of time helps me ensure they they will not be stressed but stress free.
“McKayla did wonderful with my chows! She was attentive with all 3 and careful to keep the two females apart since they do not get along. She kept them on their feeding schedule and on their potty schedule and won Simba over immediately! I will definitely reach out to McKayla in the future when I need a sitter! Highly recommended!”

“Matthew is a wonderful pet sitter. He is friendly, easy-going, respectful and considerate of your pets’ needs and any worries. Matthew did everything we asked to take the best care of our cat. We will definitely use him again!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was five years old. I grew up with a cocker spaniel, who really tied our family together with love. In grad school I rescued a mix breed and named her Eirene, which means peace. She brought a lot of peace to my life. We have doodles now, who are perfect family dogs. When we go away we like to know our dogs are being well cared for. I enjoy offering that peace of mind to families. You can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is in a loving home environment and being well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom to two teenage boys. Our days are usually spent at home and our evenings are full with various activities. We would welcome your dogs in our home and treat them as part of our family. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and explore. We go on two walks every day, one in the morning and one in the evening and offer endless ear scratches and belly rubs.

Pondsville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Matthew was friendly, professional, and reliable. Our three dogs met him with wagging tails (which is the best judge of character!). Matthew kept us updated, sending pictures while we were gone to make us feel comfortable during his first visit with us. We came home to happy dogs and a clean house, and are happy we have a new trustworthy and reliable sitter for our fur babies (and fish!).
