“Jamie did a great job dropping in for a visit to take care of our puppy Wally! He was in great hands and we felt very comfortable with her looking after his needs. Great communication. We can’t wait to rebook in the future!”
“Margaret went over and above to take care of Blackberry. While we were out of town, she drove her to an emergency vet visit and waited with her, then brought her back to our niece 's house who is watching her for us. We were very grateful for her help, and she was very nice to deal with. Highly recommend!”
“Second time with Alison and Robert and they did a great job again! Would happily rebook again. Kitties were well taken care of and everything was in order when we returned. Thank you both! Highly recommend them.”
“Karlie was amazing, she made us feel so comfortable leaving our girl with her to watch while we were away. She was very informative and communicated well with us and sent plenty of photos for us to enjoy while we were away. I definitely would book her again in the future. Thanks Karlie :)”
“Cori and Jamie are absolute professionals at their job and took the welfare of our pets as seriously as we do.

Highly recommend their services!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 8-9 years old, taught proper care and handling as well as respect for all. I have experience giving medicine regularly and as needed, bathing and brushing, assessing comfort levels and giving good ol’fashion belly rubs. I am familiar with strict meal plans and the importance of keeping up their established routines. I follow your furry friends lead, never forcing unwanted attention and respecting their boundaries. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to help watch your lovable puppers and cats! I am available 6AM-1PM everyday with my afternoon/evening availability changing weekly, only requiring a few days notice to work out our game plan. I am currently available for in-home visits and walks, and am fully capable of running around with your dog when needed! I respect all house rules and keep clients updated upon arrival and when I’m departing.
About: I've never been without a pet--my family has had Labs and Goldens since before I was born, so I was raised taking care of and training dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to find a trustworthy person to look after your pet, so please don't hesitate to ask me anything that will help you and your fur babies feel more comfortable :) I work part-time 3 days a week, so I have plenty of spare time to visit and walk your pets! My schedule is flexible, so if you ever need to make an adjustment, just let me know! I've taken care of pets with a wide range of personalities, so I understand that different pets need different types of care. You know what's best for your pet, so let me know how you do things and I will do my best to keep things consistent, familiar, and comfortable for your dogs!
About: I volunteered at the animal shelter Wanderes Rest all throughout high school. I have experience with many different kinds of animal behaviors. I work as a vet assistant for my job. Which means I know how to handle and take care of your precious fur babies. I can teach new commands if requested. I have experience with giving oral medication to both cats and dogs. I have experience with taking care of both senior cats and dogs. I will be attentive and detail oriented to their needs and care. I have experience with responding to emergencies in a calm and efficient manner. As well as keeping you updated about your pets wellbeing with LOTS of pictures. I've had stray dogs and cats approach me. Without doing anything to get their attention. Animals seem drawn towards my energy. Which is why I believe I'm the best choice when choosing someone to take care of your fur babies with Love and Attention while you are away 💕 I currently work weekends which means I am available during the week Mon - Fri. To drop by and check in on your precious babies. The only times I'm not available are 1-2:30pm since I walk dogs during those times. I am attentive and detailed oriented. I will follow your instructions word for word. Treating your fur babies like my own fur babies with Love, Attention, and Playful energy.
About: I’m new to Rover but not to dogs! I have worked in a veterinary kennel, a daycare/boarding center, completed a PennVet summer program, and volunteered at the SPCA for years. Let me walk your doggies! I love them all. I am free daily until late August, barring my 5-8 pm tutoring shifts, a few weekly appointments, and random engagements. I have lots of energy in the morning so I can do early morning walks if needed. I am very respectful and caring towards others’ animals, spaces and belongings, and would love the opportunity to take care of your pet in your home so that both of you have the least anxiety possible.
“Mary demonstrated absolute resilience in providing care for Nyla, a pet requiring SIGNIFICANT attention, successfully navigating challenges through extremely innovative approaches. We absolutely appreciate Mary never giving up and insisting on making it work! Thank you so much, Mary!”
About: I've been taking care of animals since 7th grade. My family had their own dog and I used to care for animals around the neighborhood including cats and other animals. I take care of my former co workers dogs and my dad's dog. I'm a very active person, so I love to play outside and go for walks. I work as a teaching assistant full time and school gets out at 2:15 so I have plenty of time in the afternoon most days and could always take time off if needed for a long weekend. Plus school breaks I have plenty of time. I live in an apartment that has small dog parks outside. I'm very comfortable with letting dogs out in fenced in areas and taking them on leash for walks.
“Best sitter you could ask for in the area! Responsive and will treat your pets like her own. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take care of their babies with the most love and attention as possible!”
About: Over the years, I've taken care of many animals. From our family dog (Yellow Lab) to our 3 cats, I've lived with animals my entire life. I have 8 years of experience caring for dogs, and I've cared for cats my entire life (21 years). All ages. Puppies, teens, elderly dogs... Kittens, cats, and old felines. At the moment, I'm living in a house away from my family pets. I also have experience administering medicines via treats and lotions. I'm available most of the time excluding around 12pm-6pm weekdays. I can do all holidays besides Christmas and Thanksgiving. I can do walks any length between 10 minutes and 2 hours. If need be, I can stay at the home overnight UP TO 2 NIGHTS IN A ROW. But other than that, I can come by to check up anytime during the day or night. I am comfortable with larger dogs as long as they are trained well enough not to jump on me or potentially injure me. For both cats and dogs, I am comfortable with them being outdoors as long as the area is either fenced in, it is not near a busy street, or they are trained enough to not wander far. I have experience administering medicines via treats and lotions.

Jadyne M.
“Jadyne is an absolutely amazing and very considerate pet sitter! I went out of town to visit family for over 2 weeks, and she was fantastic with coming in daily to check up on my cats. She stayed for a few hours at a time every day to check up on their automatic food and water feeders, as well as clean up their litterbox. I was especially appreciative of her attention to detail with the litterbox, since one of my cats is quite picky with the litterbox setup. Jadyne was able to accommodate her pickiness with no issues, which gave me enormous peace of mind on my trip! I was also grateful that Jadyne was willing to stay for a little bit during each visit to spend time with my cats and play with them so they wouldn't get too lonely. She frequently sent photos and videos so I knew they were doing okay, and communication was a breeze.”

“Jacob was a pit sitter for our dog Myth many times. Myth is a friendly chocolate lab, who was about 3 years old when Jacob looked after him. Myth got all the attention he needed! We felt very good leaving Myth in Jacob's care from regular feedings, walks, and playtime. We also appreciated Jacob's attention to other details (like taking out our garbage on garbage day!), and was very easy to communicate with. We recommend him highly.”
