“Very impressed with Lisa. She is very conscientious, communicative, and responsive. I have a special needs 3-legged lab and she handled him beautifully. She texted to let me know when she arrived, sent pictures each day, and stayed connected with me. I trusted that she had everything under control and I could enjoy my time away without worrying about anything. I highly recommend Lisa.”


“First time using Beth and we could not be more pleased! New to the area and have only boarded at our vet. Last minute booking, she saved us! Helped with a booking charge error with Rover (multiple animals) Came for a pre-visit, always super responsive to communications, daily photos, in touch about the details. We love that our pets could be more comfortable in their environment with the disruption in their routine. She treated our pets as her own. We had in-home care and she took care of our home as if it were hers too. She (as long as she will have us!) is our #1 pet sitter! ?”


“Alicia was so incredibly kind to our fur babies We went away on a day trip and she came to hang out at our house, She is very thorough and loving to our two pups, very attentive and professional! 10 out of 10 recommend”


About: Over 10 years of experience with cats and dogs. I am clean, quiet, and will keep your pets safe. I am flexible depending on your pets’ needs (walks, no walks, feedings, meds, little box cleaning). The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them. So please share as much detail as you’d like about your pets! I have one cat of my own right now, but have watched cats, dogs, and even birds. I am extremely flexible with dates/times. I can accommodate frequent walks or letting your pets out to go to the bathroom. I will be present and engaged with your pets while you are away and treat them like my own! I am willing to stay in your home or do drop-ins. I am not able to allow your pet into my home as my cat is very selective with who I bring in. I am clean and pick up after myself.. you don’t have to worry about the place being a mess when you get home.

“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!”


“Jackie is fantastic! She goes above and beyond to take care of our pup. He needed some special attention this weekend due to an illness. She made sure he got everything he needed - extra meds, attention, special diet, etc. We knew he was in good hands.”


About: Hello pet parents of wonderful pups and kitties of all shapes and sizes! 🐾 My name is Alexa, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life: dogs, cats, and even jellyfish (yes, really - I used to care for them in a marine biology research lab during my undergraduate at Penn State!). I've personally owned three dogs and three cats over the years, including my current family pets: a sweet German Shepherd named Willow and a spunky tortoiseshell cat, Hazel. I’ve cared for pets both big and small, from a 100-pound shepherd to a tiny 17-year old yorkie named Harley. As a remote project manager in kidney disease research, I have the flexibility to provide consistent, responsive care. In 2023, I spent extended periods of time in Virginia caring for the sweetest pets, Ellie (a golden retriever) and Harley (the yorkie), and I regularly help friends and family with pet care. Since I’m staying put in Pennsylvania for the next few months, I’ve decided to officially open up my availability on Rover again! I’m also an avid hiker and trail runner, so if your dog has energy to burn, I’m more than happy to help with that! Whether your pet enjoys long walks, quiet companionship, or a structured routine, I’m happy to adjust to their style and needs. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and cat care. I do not offer boarding or care in my own home at this time. I’m comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a little extra TLC. As a project manager, I understand how important communication is. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I am a full-time remote project manager, so I have a relatively flexible routine. My meetings are mostly from 11:00 AM - 5:00 PM ET, but I have the availability to step outside to take a walk, feed animals, etc.. I take safety, trust, and respect very seriously when caring for pets in a client’s home. While living on my own in Virginia, I cared for two dogs, one of whom was a senior with special needs, for extended periods, treating their home as if it were my own. I maintain a clean and calm environment, follow all care instructions closely, and make sure pets feel secure and loved in their familiar space. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I make sure to familiarize myself with local veterinary clinics, emergency contacts, and any specific care instructions before starting any visit. I believe preparation is key to providing dependable, responsible care, and I’m always just a message away with updates and photos to keep you in the loop.

“Rae was amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She took the time to get to know our dog’s routine, quirks, and favorite activities. While we were away, we received regular updates and adorable videos, which gave us total peace of mind. Truly above and beyond! We’ll absolutely be booking again.”

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.

“Alexandra was very professional and took excellent care of our dog, sent pics, kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away for the weekend. Could not ask for anything better when it comes to taking care of our pup!”


“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”


About: Growing up I’ve always been around dogs. Taking care of them has been in my daily routine since I can remember. Throughout my high school years I dog sat frequently which allowed me to get experience with all types of breeds. I am currently a college student & miss having animals in my daily life & will care for your pets like they are my own. In the summers I am a giraffe attendant at a wildlife park & my past two years at school I have worked at a dairy farm. I am currently a student at Delaware Valley University. I am also a student athlete, I run cross country & track & field. So my schedule varies weekly. But I have lots of flexibility to make visits. I will treat all pets like they are my own. I will meet all the requirements the owners ask of me & make their animal my number one priority when I am with them.

About: I've always had a love for animals ever since I could remember i love spending time with them I have a puppy of my own Sadie who I adore I am a stay at home mother so I have plenty of free time that I can spend caring for your pets i can be available when needed I have a very decent sized yard with lots of room to run I have a friendly puppy who would love to keep your pet company

“Amanda has taken care of our dog for several trips, and I cannot recommend her enough. She was great at sending us updates on how our dog was doing. Our dog always got excited to see her when she would come take care of her. Our dog at times was on medication for certain things, and Amanda always made sure she got what she needed. She has a gift working with animals, and you could not go wrong having her be your dog sitter.”

Not only is it clear that she succeeds within her major (which is an incredibly hard major compared to most Penn State students), but all of the clubs I know she's involved in, she consistently gives back and puts in a noticeable amount of effort. Definitely someone an employer could rely on to get the job done!”
