“Lisa is such a joy ! Our Maccabee had a fabulous time with her at our house! He had a smile on his puppy face when we got home! Lisa took such great care of our doggo! We are looking forward to having her stay with him again when we have weekend plans! 5 Stars for certain!”


“Beth was incredibly patient and caring while dog sitting our two pups, one of which is very fearful of new people. Beth helped her to accommodate by spending lots of time outside. She also worked to built trust with positive reinforcement and treats. She was also very considerate of the house demonstrated by making the bed and washing the sheets for the next dog sitter. All around, she was outstanding. Highly recommend.”

“Lauren was awesome! She demonstrated during our meet and greet that she had thoroughly read our bio, which made things much easier. She asked thoughtful questions to make sure she was prepared. She communicated throughout her stay and was flexible with start and end times. The dogs clearly took a real liking to her and enjoyed being with her. When we got home, our house was spotless and the dogs had been very well taken care of! I highly recommend Lauren!”


“Marian is very experienced with dogs and provided some basic training and tips for the few hours she watched our dogs! One of our dogs is nervous and has separation anxiety and Marian worked well with him. She was professional and communicated well with us. We would highly recommend her for others.”


About: No discrimination here! I love all sizes, breeds, and ages. With over 20 years of experience, I have grown up with dogs pretty much my entire life. Your dog will be treated as if they were my own. We like to start and end every day with potty breaks along with atleast two walks per day. We allow your children to sit and sleep wherever they like. I am currently working full-time (about 15 minutes away from home), but my boyfriend (also a Rover sitter) works from home and can do daily potty breaks if needed.

About: I gave been around dogs and cats for 16 years! My neighbors, family members, and friends always relied on me to take wonderful care of their pets!

I always let my dog out and walk him, make sure he always have water and food. I love to walk dogs and make sure to watch for other pets to see if they are friendly or not.

About: I've been dog sitting for the past 4 years since moving to PA, after having a dog for the majority of my life. Most of the dogs I watch are high energy so I am no stranger to long walks and finding fun indoor enrichment activities. I'm willing to work within training plans to ensure consistency with behavioral expectations. I am able to provide the following: - food bowl - water bowl - lead for back yard - dog crate (large and small) I currently work full time, Monday through Friday, but have most evenings open, as well as weekends. I also have a flexible work schedule and can plan accordingly to morning and mid-day needs. Safety is my top priority. I like to take the initial meeting slowly and let the dog familiarize his/herself to their surroundings or myself. Before a dog is over, I ensure my house is dog friendly, and do have a food and water bowl that can be utilized. While my yard is not fenced in, I have a lead to ensure the dog is able to be outside and can run around. We also have a lovely walking trail that can be utilized. While at other's houses, I make sure to follow any and all instructions to make your dog comfortable.

“We’re so grateful we found Kalea. She stayed in our home and took amazing care of our two Labs while we were away over the 4th of July. She stuck to their routine, which really helped keep them calm and happy, especially during a stressful time. It was obvious they got tons of love and attention while we were gone. We came home to two very content pups! We’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!”


“Brendan is the best! He took great care of Fred, our cat. He kept in touch with us all week. I hope he's available next time we need a caregiver for Fred. We'll definitely hire Brendan!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 14; I’ve trained and cared for my golden as well as the four cats in my household. I’ve also started taking on strays! I work full time over the week and I am more than capable making any stops from work or even filling up my weekends taking care of your pet. I am very flexible with instructions if need be. I’ll take care of your dogs or cats with care and diligence. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have a wonderful neighborhood that I can walk your pet in.

“Nicole is awesome! She house sat for me and my 2 dogs for a weekend. She did a wonderful job with them. She is very nurturing and keeps you updated on your furbabies throughout the time you're away. She knew it was my first time leaving them so I definitely appreciated it! I highly recommend her. I will be using her again in the future. ?”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind for 10+years. Friends, families, neighbors they have all relied on me to take care of their pets and still it’s really not like a job but a dream. I currently don’t work , so I am available literally 24 seven to take care of pets of all kinds except Sundays but text or call at anytime. I have a big yard away from the highways I live in the country and I have two friendly dogs to keep company with any kind of other pet visitors we might have.

“Maria was enthusiastic, kind, caring and patient during her two nights of sitting for us. One of our dogs can be difficult to care for due to intense anxiety but Maria navigated this well. She made sure our anxious girl got lots of time outside, which helps her to calm down. We were impressed to see Maddie’s improvement with Maria after only two days. Maria was also very considerate of our house and property. Highly recommend”


“Absolutely perfect person to care for your pet(s) and/or home. All the buzz words apply. Dependable. Caring. Trustworthy. Super care of our home. So comforting to walk into a clean house and love on a happy dog. Even took our trash cans to curb. You can’t go wrong with Austin and Jarris.”
