“Thank you so much for your wonderful care! Thank you for helping us as long as you did! I always knew Rubi was in save hands with you! I am forever thankful for everything you’ve done. Thank you for being so incredible with her ❤️❤️❤️”
“Tammi is lovely she took great care of Callie during her visits, filled out the report card and left purposefully feedback and photos too! 10/10. I would not hesitate to rebook when needed. Thanks again Tammi for all your care and being you!”
“Danny did a great job checking on calamity and mikey. Even though they hid when he came, as I knew they would, I could tell they were well taken care of while I was gone. I will use him in the future when I need to go away.”
“Alexandria is always so wonderful with our cat. This time around, she had the added task of administering medicine, and she had no problems whatsoever. Highly recommend!”
“Jess took amazing care of our dogs while my wife was working long hours and I was out of the country. Highly recommend, we will ask for her help again the next time we need it. Thank you, Jess.”
“Jasmine has been wonderful. She does all the things that a Rover sitter is supposed to do. She loves my dog and two cats. She takes cute pics of them. She's on time. She's reliable. She's trustworthy.”
“Christa was amazing, my dogs are a little nuts and she was very well equipped to make them feel safe and happy! No issues and she took sweet photos of both my awkward dogs!”
“Morgan did a great job with caring for my Golden Retriever and my cat. My cat is diabetic and she tested his glucose and gave insulin when needed. My cat doesn’t always allow new people to take care of him but he did with her. She even took my Golden for a sleepover at her house so my dog wouldn’t need to be crated for a long time. I would love to have her sit again for my animals!”
“Ashlynn is an absolute living angel. Both Bailey and Blu were so happy to see us when we returned, but also well cared for while we were gone. I loved the daily pics of our baby’s while we were gone. Thank you Ashlynn for all you did. I’ve already booked for our next vacation. I will recommend you to anyone looking for a loving caring sitter for their pets.”
“Nicole was absolutely amazing! We were updated on ever visit, took our pup for walks keeping him active, bought him toys and left doggy tv on to keep him company! We will use her on every occasion that requires a dog sitter!”
About: Hello! I’m Amanda, and I am thrilled to offer professional, compassionate pet sitting and dog walking services. With a lifelong passion for animals and a home filled with my own "zoo"—including a Doberman, a Boxer, a Boston Terrier, and a bird—I understand firsthand that pets are not just animals; they are cherished family members who deserve the highest standard of care and attention. My Experience and Approach Having grown up with horses and spent years training off-the-track Thoroughbreds, I bring a wealth of experience in animal behavior, patience, and handling. I am comfortable with dogs of all temperaments and sizes, and I am happy to accommodate specific needs, whether that means high-energy exercise or calm, gentle companionship for a senior pet. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for your pets while you are away. I offer: Energetic Dog Walking: Engaging, outdoor walks to keep your pup healthy and happy. Reliable Pet Sitting: Providing companionship, feedings, and plenty of TLC in the comfort of your home. Routine Maintenance: Ensuring your pet’s schedule remains consistent to reduce anxiety. Professionalism and Availability I pride myself on being organized, reliable, and deeply committed to the safety of the animals in my care. Because I maintain a full-time career in the housing industry, I approach my pet care services with the same level of professional discipline and accountability that I bring to my real estate and mortgage work. I am generally available during the evenings and on weekends, and I am happy to work with you to find a schedule that suits your needs. My home life is deeply integrated with my pets, so I understand the importance of clear communication and updates—you can always count on me to be punctual, communicative, and transparent about your pet's time with me. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry, feathered, or four-legged friends to see how I can best support your needs. Let's make sure your pets feel loved, active, and right at home while you're busy with your day! Are you looking for recurring walks, or are you hoping to schedule care for an upcoming vacation or trip? Reliable morning & evening care! With my flexible remote schedule, I’m available for drop-ins before 7:00 AM and after 5:00 PM to keep your pets happy and on track. I provide high-quality, reliable care through twice-daily drop-in visits. Each session covers essential needs—feeding, fresh water, and dedicated playtime—to ensure your pet feels loved and secure. I also offer professional dog walking services for an additional fee to keep your pet active and happy
“Emily was fantastic. She was timely and communicated everything. She went above and beyond in caring for my dog Nala while I was away via Drop-Ins. Thank you so much Emily for giving me invaluable peace of mind while I was away! Would book again and again :)”
“Courtlyn did an outstanding job. She had a meet and greet with our dog before the actual date. When taking care of Maverick she was always punctual. She sent pictures and comments so we could see that he was being walked and fed. I would certainly use Courtlyn again. I highly recommend her to care for your pet.”

About: I’ve helped care for pets of my own and my family since I can remember. I adopted 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own almost 8 years ago now. I absolutely adore my fur babies and helping others care for theirs brings me so much joy. I also have now taken on chickens and fish as well, so I have a variety of experience. I’m currently a SAHM homeschooling my oldest and caring for my youngest. I enjoy animals of all kinds, they are my passion and would love to share that with others. Being a SAHM gives me more availability to do drop ins, walks, and care for critters. I have a fenced in yard, which is how I’ve always pottied my dogs, but I’m also happy to walk them on a leash, and have gone back and forth crating my own dog and am happy to do that as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Shippensburg on Rover is $15.54 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 650 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Shippensburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Shippensburg stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Shippensburg. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
