About: Hello! My name is Amanda and I am 32 years old. I have always had a strong love and passion for animals of all species starting at a young age. I have worked in several animal shelters and have worked as a veterinary technician, as well as being a certified dog groomer. Animals will always and forever be my passion. In the past I have owned fish, dogs, cats, and a variety of reptiles and pocket pets. As of now I have 2 cats and 1 dog! Your fur babies are my top priority while you are away, treating them as if they were my own and making sure they are spoiled and in the best hands! Please consider me as the pet sitter for you; I promise you will not regret it! My schedule is mostly flexible. Being able to leave for a couple hours a day is a must for me since I have other obligations. I keep my schedule on here up to date as much as I can. I take care of pets in their own homes with the utmost respect. I want them to be comfortable with me so I will try to keep their routines going to help out with making them feel at ease.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and have been caring for them my entire life. I have experience with both large and small dogs as well as cats. I’m currently home from college for the summer and working part time so I have a good amount of time on my hands, especially on Sundays and Mondays. I experience with almost every type of pet care you can think of including things like bathing, crating, playing, walking, feeding, and even giving medication.

About: I been taken care of dogs since I was 13. My friends and neighbors have relied on me I'd say I'm pretty good at taken care of them. I'm currently working. Only 2 days a week sometimes Tuesday and Wednesdays I work. I'm trying to make extra money so I can pay my bills. I have a fenced in yard. my dog is really nice sometimes doesn't like men bc he was abused. My neighbors dogs are mean and aggressive.

“Melissa did an amazing job with our cats! She went above and beyond while taking care of them. Definitely someone you want to watch your pets!!”

“Jessica was very good at communicating and even sent me pictures of my cat while I was away. I was able to enjoy my trip more knowing that Nala was being cared for! I definitely plan to use Jessica again when I am out of town in the future.”

“Michael was very attentive and communicative while my husband and I were away for Christmas. We highly recommend him and would definitely hire him again!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I’ve grown up around family pets and understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m available 24/7. I have 4 dogs at home and am willing to pet sit at any point of any day! I’m just getting started on rover and would love to get my name out there! I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through both personal and professional settings. I previously worked for a local groomer as a dog bather, where I became comfortable handling dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. In addition, I regularly care for my family’s dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, spending time with them, and pet sitting when family members are away. I also help care for pets for extended family members, including my aunts and uncles, who trust me with their dogs while they travel or need extra help. I truly enjoy being around animals and am looking forward to expanding my services to help more pet owners feel confident their dogs are safe, cared for, and treated like family.

About: I believe our pets deserve the best care especially in times where pet moms/dads have to provide and take care of themselves, that’s where I come in to help focus on your pet and give them the same energy you would, so you can think about you! Patience, perfectionism, calmness, consideration, these are all things I take pride in. I am a very loving, gentle care taker (who loves to burn some energy off too through play!) I will focus on making sure your pets every need is met while going above and beyond to ensure they feel emotionally happy, safe, and respected by me. I have a very flexible schedule and am available any day, any time! I have reliable transportation and am available last minute if you need me I always start with a clean & sanitary space by ensuring food bowls, water bowls, beds blankets etc are all sanitary. Enrichment activities, brain stimulation, exercise, massages, cooking homemade dog/cat food, outfits/shoes for heat/cold protection, etc.

About: I currently work a hybrid schedule with Carnegie Mellon and I love having a canine companion to explore the outdoors with! I was raised with a variety of large dog breeds in the home and worked at Beaver County Humane Society throughout college. For drop-in visits in your home, please provide me with specific care instructions and how your animal(s) prefers to be interacted with (lots of love or do they keep to themself, specific feeding requirements, etc.) For stays in my home: I have a large home and yard with plenty of room for play and naps. Smoke-free living space where cuddling on the furniture is encouraged! Potty breaks are usually as often as needed since I'll be home throughout the day on most days (I will provide my schedule during your pet's stay with me). I use a tie in the yard for bathroom breaks and outdoor running since my yard is unfenced, though leashed walked can also be used if your dog prefers that. I have never used a crate for any of my animals, please let me know if your pet is more comfortable with one. I've also owned/cared for horses, birds, snakes, chinchillas, iguanas, goats, pigs, and a variety of other mammals. Frequent updates and pictures will be given to you throughout your companion's stay with me. Currently unable to take any large breed dogs for boarding. My lab/collie mix does well with smaller breeds. My cats interact well with dogs since they have been raised with one. My dog is on Frontline, and I require an active flea and tick prevention method be used for your pet as well. I work a hybrid schedule (remote about 3 days/week), so potty breaks and walks can occur at nearly any time throughout the day, depending on your pet's needs. If your dog needs a crate for comfort and "their space," please bring their own for use. I have an unfenced yard so leashed breaks and outdoor ties will be used.

“I had a sitter cancel, and then couldn’t reach the her replacement, and George agreed to check in on my kitty cat on short notice. George proved to be very reliable in spite of coming from further away. I intend to hire him again if he’s still available to cat-sit.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up with cats and because we were never allowed to have a dog, I would take care of dogs in the neighborhood. I would dog sit, walk them constantly, and would even bathe them. When I was little, I wanted to be a veterinarian. However the thought of having to put an animal to sleep, kept me from fulfilling that lifelong dream. With two Golden Retrievers of my own Duke 7 years old and Enzo 7 months old who I adore more than life itself, and a cat my life is full. Looking forward to adding more fluffy friends to my life, and maybe even adding some excitement to my dogs life by adding new friends. I currently work full-time, but the majority of my days at work are spent working from home, so my schedule is flexible. The more dogs the merrier ! I will do whatever is necessary to provide the best care when someone else’s baby is in my care. I know what I would want for my dog, so I would treat each animal that is in my care the same way I would treat my own dog with lots of love, treats, walks and playtime!

“Lilly was great with my cat Ria. It was the first time Lilly cared for Ria and she did a wonderful job not only with the feeding, litter box detail, playtime, and photos, but her communication with me during her visits was awesome.”

About: 🐶 Having been surrounded by dogs my entire life, I’ve developed a deep understanding and appreciation for their care. Growing up with dogs and raising my own, Harlow 🐾, from a puppy, has given me firsthand experience in fostering their well-being. My passion for animals extends beyond personal experience—participation in clubs at the Pittsburgh Zoo 🦁 provided me with valuable insights into animal behavior and care, further enhancing my knowledge. Being from Pittsburgh, I am fluent with many resources for me to enjoy with pets. 🐕‍🦺 My pet care journey started in 2014 with my first job at a dog care store on Butler Street, where I honed my skills in providing attentive and compassionate care. During my internship with the Water Authority in Bradford, PA, I dedicated my lunch breaks to volunteering at the local SPCA 🏠, offering love and attention to animals in need. These experiences have shaped me into a dedicated, knowledgeable, and empathetic sitter. 💛 As an alumni M.S. engineering student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for my pets. I can easily fit dog walks, feeding, and playtime into my routine, ensuring each pet gets the attention it deserves. My love for animals and adaptable schedule make it easy to prioritize their well-being. I currently care for two dogs, my mother's and her boyfriend's, and have hands-on experience managing their daily needs. At home, I ensure a safe environment with our fenced-in yard and always prioritize the pets' well-being. For my clients' pets, I’m adaptable to their specific routines, whether that involves feeding, walks, playtime, or creating a comfortable space. Every pet in my care receives love and attention tailored to their unique needs.

About: Does your dog prefer to be in its own environment? Then allow me to spoil your pup while you're away! You might be thinking to yourself 'Well why should I pick this girl to watch my dog?' Let me tell you why! .... I bake homemade dog treats and love to run/walk with a loveable dog by my side! And snuggling up with a pup is probably one of the best feelings ever! I have an 8 year old cockapoo at home who is pretty awesome, if I do say so myself! I love to meet other dogs and spend time with them so I'm hoping I get to meet yours soon! I am a part time student (taking online classes) and I work part time as a florist so my schedule is pretty open to take care of your 'furry child' while you are away! For the last couple of years I have been watching my parents pets while they go on vacation along with friends animals. I am just looking to broaden my horizons by using Rover! I also feel as though having someone come to your house to care for your dog/cat is a lot less stressful for your pet and you have someone who is able to bring the mail in, water any plants, make sure the trash cans are taken to the curb, and just to make sure the house is still standing! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life. I grew up with at least one dog always in the house. When I moved out one of the first things I did was buy a puppy. He means the world to me and I would pretty much do anything for my cockapoo, Ramsay. And yes, he is named after Gordon Ramsay! My experience administering medication Yes, I am quite comfortable with administering medications. My pup takes allergy medicine and puts up quite a little fight so it does not scare me.

“Beatriz was attentive and caring when she did drop-in visits for my cat. She want at or beyond expectations, and was extremely responsive in communication, looking out for everything. She did a great job and I am happy to rebook her in the future.”
