“Cassidy is an AMAZING walker for my Millie girl! She gives her all the love and I trust she’s in capable hands every day for her midday walk. Millie can be a bit of a puller/barker on walks and Cassidy handles her perfectly. She is a great communicator with anything going on (even random repair people showing up at my house). I so much appreciate the love she shows my baby.”

About: I have had dogs ever since I was a little girl. Growing up, we had Pitbulls and Dobermans in the house. I was responsible for taking care of the family pets, as my parents wanted all of us to be involved. My neighbors had dogs that I would take while they were away. This would consist of walking, feeding, and cleaning up after their dog. I used to walk dogs in my old neighborhood, and I have taken care of my friends' pets on several occasions when they went away. My husband and I adopted two little kitties and it was the best thing we have ever done! They bring so much joy to our life and we love them dearly I am a third grade teacher, so I am looking for post-work pet care or weekends when I am free. My evenings would open around 4:00, where my weekends are usually open all the time! I can easily crate a dog as needed, clean out a litter box for cats, provide food for either type of pet. Or simply, give company to a pet that has been home by themselves for awhile!
“We have been so happy using Rover! Our dog walker Raeann is very sweet, communicative, loves animals, and best of all, takes excellent care of our puppy! She is extremely friendly and is a great match for our little guy! We are so lucky to have her, and are so grateful for the ease and flexibility of the Rover app! Thank you Rover, and thank you Raeann!”

“Jessica was absolutely fantastic! She was prompt in her responses, incredibly reliable, and took great care of my pups. From the start, her communication was clear and professional, and I always felt confident knowing my dogs were in good hands. She showed genuine care and attention, which means a lot as a dog owner. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Jessica again and will absolutely look to book her whenever possible. Highly recommend!”

“Siyani is absolutely AMAZING! My rescued pup is a reactive dog, and it’s usually very difficult for him to warm up to new people,!especially when it comes to walks or being cared for by someone new. But with Siyani, he felt safe right away!! She has such a calm, kind energy that made Toby comfortable and confident, which is something I honestly didn’t think I would find outside of our family. Finding someone who can handle a rescue pup with patience and love is rare, and Siyani has completely earned my trust. This experience gave me the peace of mind I needed, and now I know I’ve found my go-to sitter for Toby, not only for dog walks but also for when I travel. I couldn’t recommend her enough!!”

About: Ever since I was a kid, I've been an animal lover. I've taken care of animals (both for myself and for others) for over 15 years. I've dog-sat, cat-sat, and chicken-sat for many friends and family members in that time. Since many of the pets I grew up with have begun to leave my life due to old age, I've found myself wanting to spend time with critters more. I figured why not look here to see what people may need help ensuring their pets get the proper care and attention they deserve. I am naturally a cat person, but have also learned how to work with, train, and play with dogs as a result of being around them so often. I try to balance being fun + compassionate along with being a calm but stern presence when necessary. And I'm happy to offer any and all pets a little extra playtime or attention if they need it as well (: I work from home, and have a relatively flexible schedule at least half of the week most of the time. I have time to shift my schedule around to accommodate pet care throughout the week. My only limit is often how many days out of the week I can work, but not what specific days I can watch someone's pets. My weekends can happen whenever during the week! It's important to me to start slow and develop a connection with someone's pet before acting too comfortable around them. Having ample play time, walk time, relaxation time, and a healthy amount of treats help get that process in motion. Ideally I'd love to find people I could work with regularly, strictly because I value developing a solid relationship with people's pets more than just "showing up and doing my job" - though I am very capable of doing that as well!
About: I've had pets my whole life. Growing up, my family had several dogs and cats amongst other animals. I am a cat mom of 3 (had 4 but lost my guy 3 years ago). And will one day be a doggo mom!! I love animals and believe when you take on the responsibility of owning a pet, that's it for their life. My guys live a fun, spoiled, laidback life and I would do anything for my guys. I unfortunately due to my oldest having diabetes and CHF, am familiar with administrating medication as I had to give insulin and he was on several meds (pills and compounded). I love all animals and will love them like my own. I will send photos/videos of your pet (anytime). Your pet will get my 1000% undivided attention!! I am super excited to watch/take care of your pet!! My schedule is very open currently which means more time for me to love on your pet(s)!! As my schedule changes, I'll do my best to be as accommodating as possible!! My pets are my world and come first. I make sure my pets are taken care of (fed, water, litter box cleaned etc) and put their needs over mine. Put in perspective, I tried dozens of options of foods and such when my oldest was diagnosed with diabetes and gave my all to find answers before he passed. My pets are my children LOL and your pets will get the exact kind of care and love that I provide my guys.
“So thankful for Dani! We had something come up last minute and she quickly replied that she was available to walk our dog. She was great at communicating about their trip. Will definitely confide in her in the future to take care of our pup!”

About: I am a loving and caring dog Mommy that loves to walk. My Morkie Molly and I would love to find some friends to walk with us. I work from home primarily and I’m only looking to do drop ins or walks. The primary times that I would be available would be weekend mornings weekend evenings weekday evenings, anytime during the day, Mondays and Fridays My primary interest will be dropping in and walking. I’ll be sure that your pet is in their harness securely. I have a hip leash that will have waste bags and a pet water bottle if they get thirsty, The length of the walk will be depending upon the needs of the dog. I can feed them if they need to be fed spend up to one hour each visit if needed..we can play, give hugs and kisses and make sure they are tired out and happy before leaving.
About: I have taken care of pets for my whole life! I grew up on a farm with at least three dogs and five indoor cats at a time! I have worked at Dr. Mimnagh’s office as a veterinary assistant since 2020. With years of experience, I am more than qualified to care for, feed, and administer all medications to cats and dogs. I am comfortable with handling all sizes and personalities of cats and dogs. I have a dog and two cats of my own that I care for on the daily! I love to have fun with the animals and play with them but safety for all involved is the main priority. I am currently a student at the University of South Carolina and am looking to make some extra money over the summer! I personally have five cats and three dogs which I care for daily. I also work at a local vet clinic at least four days a week as a veterinary assistant. I do my best to volunteer at the Harrisburg humane society weekly for shelter skip day! My personal pets are fed by me, cleaned up after, walked and given attention daily! Unfortunately due to my pets, I will not be taking clients pets to my house. However, I would be giving the clients pets a great deal of attention whether that include playing with them, walking and feeding them etc.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet owner currently owned by three cats—Chewy, Peanut, and Tigger 😸 With 30+ years of hands-on animal care experience, I know every pet has their own personality, routines, and very specific opinions. I’m comfortable caring for cats and dogs with a variety of needs, including medical support—my cat Chewy has asthma, so I’m experienced with daily treatments and paying attention when something seems off. I’ve also cared for dogs of different sizes, from my own growing up to helping with my brother’s Great Dane. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I’ll care for them with patience, reliability, and the same attention I’d want for my own pets. Since I work from home in Hummelstown, I have flexibility in my schedule that makes pet care a great fit. I intentionally keep my service area close to home so I can reliably stop by in the morning, during lunch, and after work for visits, walks, feedings, or check-ins. I’d rather provide consistent, attentive care to nearby pets than overextend myself. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routines and feel safe in their own environment. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any little quirks or preferences that make your pet comfortable. Safety is very important to me, whether that means double-checking doors and gates, following leash safety, being mindful of food restrictions, or simply paying attention if a pet seems stressed or not acting like themselves. As a longtime pet owner—including caring for a cat with daily medical needs—I know how important attentiveness and consistency are. I also understand the trust involved in having someone care for your pets and enter your home, and I take that responsibility seriously.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals. I’m a huge pet person. I find joy in meeting new animals and being able to spend my free time taking care of them. I love being able to help others so I’m always open to find any time I may have to help you with your pets when needed. FYI- I live 5 mins away from Hersheypark… bring your dog for to me for doggy daycare if you plan on taking a weekend/daytrip to Hershey or Hersheypark! I’m currently working full time. I pet sit and dog groom on the side of my full time job. Weekends is when I have the most time to spend with the dogs. During the week I still give them plenty of loving but it’s before work and after work due to my schedule. I will always make sure they are on a leash when outside if there is no fence. I can will take care of your dog in your house or mine whichever is prefered.

About: I have been an animal lover all of my life, and was raised with 5 huskies. Since then, I’ve had a variety of animals, including a salamander, chinchillas, ferrets, dogs, cats, and hamsters. I'm looking for clients who will not mind if my son tags along for a visit or a walk, and an excuse to get us both out of the house (walking is a bonus!). I have experience working as a dog trainer with shelter and rescue dogs, so difficult behaviors are no issue! I would love to take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I currently work 3-4 days a week and have availability Fridays thru Mondays (sometimes Tuesdays) to help care for your critters while you take long weekend getaways :) I treat a client’s home with respect, and do my very best follow routines as closely to what you do as I can. My goal is to provide safe, secure care thag you can rely on.
About: I’ve been caring for various sized dogs and cats since I was a small child. From feeding, to going on walks or just providing them company while you’re away I’m bound to be your pets new best friend! I’m available most week days but please try to give me a few hours heads up if you’ll be needing me to avoid schedule conflicts! Each animal requires their own specific care. Please let me know what services you are looking for PRIOR to booking to ensure everything goes smoothly for everyone
About: I was working in a Dog daycare for 5 years before I started my own business. In that time I also received my dog training certificate. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs in my time working with animals. Pet care is my full time job. All I need are the days you're looking for and I can add you onto my schedule. I also offer limited services on the weekends I travel to my clients for the services requested. Depending on the set up of the clients house determines how I go about looking after the animal. I always request that vet information be readily available just incase anything happens and I generally like to meet the animal first to make sure they are comfortable with me before I commit to working with them.
