“Brittany is clearly an expert when it comes to pet sitting. She took such great care of my dog Eddie, was quick to respond, and even took the time to clean the place before she left! It brought me such peace of mind to know Eddie was in such good hands!”

“Bayleigh stayed in our home for 5 days with our two golden retrievers and we were thrilled with how happy our dogs were and how clean our home was. We got daily updates with photos, she brought in our mail, and we returned to a spotless house. I could see she even vacuumed before leaving! We travel a lot for work and I am so excited to have someone to call again who will take good care of our dogs and our home!”


About: I have taken care of pets all my life. Family, friends, and colleagues. I love to serve all those around me and help to make their lives simpler and less stressful I am a graduate physical therapy student at Messiah University with a predictable class schedule. I am available most mornings, evenings, and lunchtime hours for dog walks or quick let out visits so your dog can get outside and stay comfortable. My current housing does not allow me to keep pets in my own home. However, I am available for overnight stays in your home to provide consistent care and support for your dog in their familiar environment.
“Becky was so great with our senior dog and three overly friendly kitties while we were on vacation. She didn’t hesitate to reach out with questions and sent tons of updates and pictures. Our critters were so happy and well cared for. She gave us peace of mind and we are so grateful to have found her! Thank you a million times, Becky!”

“Hannah was great with Jax, our 7 year old greyhound. She took great care as she sat with him at our home for two nights. Already looking to book for for a week for our family vacation next month!”

“Andy was great! She stayed at our house for a week and even cleaned and organized while she was there. Our dogs were very happy and didn’t seem to notice we were even gone. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Lauren was so kind and went up to our dogs right away to greet them and get to know them. She sent us photos and updates while we were away. We would definitely use her again!”

“Isabella was amazing! She went above and beyond with our pets. I enjoyed receiving daily updates and pictures. When I got home, the house was clean, the animals were very happy and very well taken care of. Isabella definitely went the extra mile. I absolutely recommend her.!!”

“This was our first experience with Rover, and it was great!! Allison had terrific communication, and she was wonderful with our best boy! He loved her so much after just one visit, he cried when she left. We will definitely ask Allison to sit with Henry again!”

“Kaylene Is awesome she played with Eli, took on walks, water pkants and took great care of our house. Eli looked so happy in the pictures she sent. We will definitely use her again and recommend her.”

About: I have had dogs all throughout my childhood, and whether it’s small pups or big fluffy ones, I love them all! I also love the outdoors and being active. I am currently a student and I have a lot of free time with only one job working Saturday evenings. I commonly go to the gym in the late morning but I am available mostly every day! I offer pet sitting at your own home, along with stop ins and dog walking, keeping your pet cared for and comfortable! I will carefully follow provided instructions for your pets needs.
“I booked with Morgan to have her stay at my apartment for the weekend with my cat. She was very professional and attentive to details. I appreciated that she would check in and let me know my pet was doing well and sent photos. Would 100% book again with Morgan!”

“Really happy with Sydney's house sitting services. She was very communicative and trustworthy in our home while we were gone... and our pup really seemed to have enjoyed her company! We will definitely book Sydney again, and would recommend her to others as well!”

“The bestest!!!!! If you want someone to watch your cats and feel secure they’re being well taken care of, get Hanna!! She is so caring and makes the extra effort to make our babies feel comfortable and content. One of our kitties is very shy and Hanna did a great job of respecting her space but also making sure she’s fed/doing well. The other kitty that loves attention, Hanna made sure to give it to him! In addition, she made sure the water fountain was filled and the litter box clean! We are so appreciative of her and will definitely work with her again and recommend her care!!!”


“Elizabeth is excellent. When our last sitter moved away, we thought it was going to be hard to find a replacement. I have to say that Lizzy has exceeded our expectations. She is reliable and communicates with us often I wish she would spend a few more pics... We will absolutely use Elizabeth again.”

“Victoria was wonderful. She was very communicative and sent pictures. She also reached out with questions she was unsure of or have question about. Rocket seemed to like her a lot and highly recommends booking with her.”

About: I have had dogs and puppies all my life. I understand the importance of keeping pets active, and well taken care of! I’m ready to help any pup! I work at night, usually from about 3-9pm. Sometimes I work midday, but it’s never more than 5 hours. My work schedule is pretty flexible so I can usually move things around to provide the best care for your pup! Lots of walks, feed them on time, play dates, snuggles, and overall spending time with your fur baby to make them feel comfortable and loved!

As always, happy to have Allison over to sit with Henry. He was so happy to see her again and sad to see her go. He loves the long walks she takes him on! Allison is the first sitter we check availability for on Rover. She’s super nice, reliable, and great at communicating!

Lila was great! She stayed at our house with our 3 dogs for about a week while we were away. The dogs were well taken care of. We have an elderly dog with mobility issues and Lila was able to help her get up. She left the house very tidy and even offered to do drop in visits after our flight was unexpectedly cancelled. Will use again!

How is this instead? This was our first time using the Rover app and we were so grateful to find Karen!! She was extremely responsive during for our week away from our dogs. Returning home our flight was delayed 3 times for being back and she was very supportive and understanding in taking care of the dogs. Our kiddos were very well taken care of and hit it off with Karen right away. Karen is very knowledgeable and trustworthy in taking care of the dogs in our home. We highly recommend Karen and she will be our go to next time we need any kind of dog services!!!

Xavier was absolutely amazing with my dog Bear! From the very first message, he was kind, communicative, and genuinely excited to take care of him. He took the time to read all of Bear’s care instructions (which were very detailed!) and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Throughout the day, Xavier sent me updates and photos, which helped me relax knowing Bear was happy and comfortable. Bear can be a bit reactive on walks and had just started antibiotics the day before, but Xavier handled everything with such patience and care. He followed all of Bear’s routines perfectly, kept him company, and even snuggled with him the way Bear likes. It’s so clear how much Xavier loves animals and wants to do right by them. I would 100% recommend Xavier to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and caring dog sitter. We’d love to have him watch Bear again!
