“Katy was fantastic! She was so communicative and was the best caretaker of our dog Josie. She took our directions very considerately and keep us informed daily over the week she watched our dog. I would absolutely hire her again in a heartbeat.”

“This was our first time using Rover for watching our 5 Yr boxer for a long weekend getaway. As most pet owners would agree that leaving your pet with someone can be stressful. Well, it could not of gone better for us. Belle was watched over and all instructions were followed and she was a happy dog on our return. We will use Taylor and Trenton again when we need to leave her behind.”
About: Hi! I’m Nia, a lifelong dog lover based in the 27030 area. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own: Indi, my 2.5-year-old Chihuahua/Italian Greyhound mix, and Bear, my 6-month-old Poodle. Because I travel myself, I truly understand how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else. That’s why I focus on communication, safety, and making sure both you and your dog feel completely comfortable. I’m experienced with puppies, small breeds, high-energy dogs, and slower senior dogs. Whether your pup prefers a relaxed stroll, a jog to burn off energy, or a day at the park, I’m happy to match their pace and personality. I can work on keeping up with basic commands and training but I am not certified in any dog training. If you’re interested, I can also safely introduce your dog to Indi and Bear for socialization, only with your permission and after making sure it’s a good fit. Safety is always my priority. I carefully check harnesses and leashes, follow all feeding and water instructions, and stick closely to your dog’s normal routine. I treat every dog like they’re my own. I have very open availability, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute bookings and I’d love to meet you and your pup! 🐶🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my daily life since I have two dogs of my own, Indi and Bear. I plan my days around walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and outdoor time, so adding additional pets into my routine feels natural and easy. I have open availability, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m flexible with mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Because I’m used to a consistent routine, I’m dependable and organized when it comes to providing reliable care. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and preferred walking routes. I double-check harnesses, collars, and leashes before walks and monitor pets closely at all times. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and structured environment with plenty of supervised playtime and rest. Any introductions to my dogs are done slowly and only with owner permission. I pay close attention to body language and energy levels to ensure every pet feels safe and secure. However, most of the time I will provide sitting in clients home and dog walking outside.
“Suzanne was a loving, caring and joyful person who took great care of our dog while housesitting. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone in need, and we will certainly be a repeat customer of hers. Thank you, Suzanne!”

“We have 3 dogs and 3 cats and were traveling for 10 days. CJ took amazing care of our zoo and communicated with us daily about their antics and how they were doing, complete with pictures. We highly recommend her and will definitely book her for our next trip.”

“Emory has watched our pup three times now and has done a wonderful job each time. She is punctual, great a communication, and follows all of our instructions. We will definitely be using her again!”

About: I have experience working as a kennel technician at a local animal hospital and have been caring for my pets for several years. I have also taken classes on pet care and how to work with different types of animals. I am currently working a part-time job, but i am able to accommodate what is best for you. Since I have a very flexible schedule I am open for just about everything! I have experience with kenneling dogs while also being on a timely feeding time and hourly walks, and play times. I care for my pets by crating and having scheduled feeding times along with plenty of fenced-in outdoor time!
About: I have a 2 dogs (5 and 2 years old) who I love dearly! I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and I am the volunteer pet sitter for all my friends and family. I am currently working as a pharmacist most of the time but I have a couple days off during the week and do not have other responsibilities before and after work. I have a medium sized yard and 2 other friendly dogs to keep your pets company. Your pets safety and happiness are my top priority!
“We had the pleasure of having Heather take care of our sweet golden at the last minute on a holiday weekend while attending a family funeral. I was a nervous wreck to leave my girl with someone strange but Heather took the leash and handled everything professionally. Her communication (pics included) put me at ease. She was great - went above and beyond - and if I lived in that beautiful area I would hire her often and feel right at ease.”

“Wonderful sitters! Joyce and her husband took such good care of our 4 dogs. We were really happy that they were able to come to our home multiple times per day in order to feed water and play with our 4 sweethearts. And Joyce was able to take 1 dog to the vet to look at an injury that occurred PRIOR to her starting; the dogs paw got caught in something right before we were scheduled to leave for vacation. Luckily, his paw was fine. I cannot say enough about how pleased we were and are with the house/pet sitting by Joyce!”

“I was kind of in between a rock and a hard place.. I had to go out of town in a week, and didn’t want to leave my dog in a kennel again.. he has special needs and kennels have too many dogs to pay special attention to him so I tried Rover... My request for assistance was accepted right away. I was always able to reach the sitters and they sent me updates and statuses ... definitely recommend Cheyannes assistance if you need a sitter”

“This was our first time leaving our dog for a few days we felt so reassured knowing Jess was taking great care of her. She sent updates and pictures each day and gave her lots of walks and attention. Our dog warmed up to her quick. She definitely put our mind at ease, which was invaluable. We’d recommend her to anyone!”

About: I have taken care of all pets and animals of many kinds throughout my life. Dogs, cats, horses, etc. have been a part of my life since my childhood. Raised on a farm where all our animals were our family members as well, from cows and chickens to even goldfish. Dogs and cats were usually the pets we had inside the house, where each one live a comfortable life with a healthy lifestyle. We trained our inside pets to use the bathroom outside on the lawn (besides our cats). I have experience with puppies and kittens as well. As of now, I am away from my animals since they live with my family back in PR. So any pet I meet in the meantime, is going to be treated with the same kind of love as if they were mine. I work full-time at a door company, but I’m available to care for your pets on weekdays after 3:30 PM and anytime on weekends. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your schedule to ensure your pets are well cared for. Their happiness and comfort are my top priority! As of now, I don’t have any pets since I moved here a year ago, which means your pets will have my full attention. Depending on the service—whether it’s house sitting, dog walking, or visits—I provide a safe and loving environment. My home has a spacious yard perfect for dogs to run around, and I keep it clean and secure. Cats will feel comfortable indoors with plenty of cozy spots to relax.
About: Experienced kennel technician. Humane society volunteer. Cat mom. Aspiring dog trainer. There's no breed I can't handle on a leash and no behavior I'm not willing to be patient with. I'm currently working part-time in the evenings at a training kennel, leaving most of my daytime hours to play with your pets. My schedule comes out on a monthly basis. When it comes to animals my patience is endless and I firmly believe in positive reinforcement over training via punishment. Respect is earned through love, not fear.
About: I have lived with animals my whole life. Big dogs, small dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters. I have always loved animals and I have taken care of them as if they were my bestest friend. Spending time with animals makes my day and I have never met a pet that hasn’t loved me! I am in college part time. When I come home the first thing I do is walk my dogs and feed my cats. I make sure all of my animals have everything that they need. My schedule is pretty open for the most, and I always find time to take care of pets. The first thing I would do with your pet or pets is make sure they’re comfortable with me, and that they are happy. Afterwards, I would make sure they are fed properly and have plenty of water. I would try to play with them, and make them as happy as possible.

About: I have prior experience in taking care of all different types of animals for many years. I have had puppies, kittens, rabbits, hamsters, smaller lizards, small and large animals, along with elderly dogs and cats. I also have experience in sick animals and giving medicine to them along with special diets. I would watch friends and families animals as I grew up and have learned over the years animals are my passion. I am currently enrolled in a veterinarian technician program to further my education in animal care. I am available at any point to watch your precious babies. I currently have open availability for whatever need may arise or for anything you may need I would care for your babies as I would for mine with all the love and attention they could possibly want. They would either be in a fenced in yard or on a leash for outside time and monitored while they are inside with plenty of snuggles and attention.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. My parents always said you want it, you take care of it. My love for animals started from a young age with my first kitty Indie, and my dog Coco. I’ve had multiple animals over the years ranging in size and age. I have house sit for Family and friends and love the fuzzy creatures company! I’m currently enrolled in Community college, during the day and work part-time at night. The weekends Would be the best but I can still house sit on the weekdays depending on the needs of the pet and owner! Our two doggies Bear and Blue spend most of their time inside, and in our big backyard playing with the ball. I am capable of ensuring the animals are played with, fed, and taken out! With my dogs I usually feed them separately incase if food aggression, but I can follow any rules that pet owners need for their furry friends.
Sheltontown pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were the luckiest pet parents in the world to have found Ida! She is now our official dog-whisperer! (geckos too) Our 2 dogs are well-behaved, but my one rescue is terrified of anything and everyone. So much so that we have been unable to go anywhere without her. (My son and daughter-in-law visited for a week and barely got close to her!) Being that our 40th wedding anniversary was coming up. we needed a parent-only vacation. Ida spent 3 visits, prior to her house/pet sitting, just making the pets feel more comfortable. She arrived to stay while we were still there, and immediately settled in with our dogs. (cats were elusive until day 2) In the past, I have asked sitters (prior to Shia) to please leave notes or let me know how everyone was doing. I did not need to do that with Ida: she texted, called and sent progress videos. I think she was more worried about them than I was! I don't know how she did it, but after a while, Shia became a different dog: calm, loving and eating with a virtual stranger! I also got lizard and cat updates, in addition to her taking care of our home! (garbage out, mail, etc). Not only were my animals content when we got home, the house was spotless and Ida left us 2 plants. Needless to say, Ida is my Gotta. Ida know what I did without her. Ida - we love you! Thank you so much.
