âEric is polite and genuinely cares about your pet. He visited a few days before our booking to get acquainted with our dogs. They liked him right away! He stayed at our house and left it clean. Thank You!â

âHaley watched our two pups and she did a fantastic job! I felt very comfortable with her staying in my home and she was very respectful and caring of my home and pups! I will absolutely be using Haley in the future! My dogs are pretty quirky and she was great with them!!â

âLobo, our 12 year old 10lb rescue chihuahua mix approves! Matthew was so patient with him even though Lobo takes a bit to warm up to new people. By the end of their first day together they were buddies. Matthew sent us photo updates daily which really calmed my anxiety about having a new sitter. He paid good attention when touring the house and meeting Lobo for the first time, asking lots of good questions. We came home to a clean kitchen and the guest room already put back together after his stay too! Heâs definitely our new top pick dog/house sitter from the area!â


âOur pets are always happy when we return to the house after Lauren has taken such good care of them. The cat has had her medicine and the dog has been entertained. Thank you, Lauren.â

âStephanie was great with our 3 dogs. She stayed overnight, made sure our 1 dog got the 2x daily meds he needed, and sent lots of pictures and updates. She clearly loves animals, and we never have to worry when sheâs our sitter.â

âNikki did such an amazing job caring for our two pups during a 4 day house sitting. As littermates, they needed someone with extra patience and experience handling their occasional reactivity. She really took the time to get to know them and understand their individual behaviors. Nikki made us feel so comfortable with regular updates, and adorable pictures. She even managed to leave the house cleaner than when she arrived! Next booking is just weeks away, twice as long, and we have no doubts that she'll be fantastic with them again!â

âAndrea was amazing with my dog Parker. She was very loving and spent a lot of time with him. Parker can be picky when it comes to food and she was great, she made sure he ate all his meals at his time. He was also healing from a hotspot and she took great care of it, it was all heal by the time I came back home. I could tell Parker had a good time with her. I would recommend Andrea 100%. We will be booking again with her for sure.â

âIf we could give Jeni 10 out of 5 stars we would! She is an incredible sitter, and we know our dog was in the best hands. Great communication and attention to detail! We could tell even from the photos she sent that our dog was having the best time. Thank you Jeni!!!â

âAddy was amazing! She helped me out when I was in a bind and needed someone to house and dog sit for me with short notice. She saved the day!! She took amazing care of my dogs and my home! Iâll definitely be reaching out to her in the future to help care for my dogs!â

âAriel cared for our pups inside our home for 5 days while we traveled out of the country and I canât speak highly enough of her! She checked in and sent pictures almost daily. Our 3 dogs had the BEST time and we already have her booked again in Novemberâ

âEmily was great with our dog while we were out of town! She took her on lots walks, gave her puzzle toys and made sure she was well taken care of. We would definitely book with her again!â

âAva provided exceptional care for my dogs and followed all instructions thoroughly. She was attentive, compassionate, and genuinely kind, taking the time to cuddle with them and ensure they felt comfortable and loved. I felt completely confident leaving my dogs in her care and would absolutely book her again without hesitation.â

About: I grew up on a farm in Northeast PA & throughout my life & have cared for hundreds of different animals, everything from horses & cows to orphaned opossums & baby fox. I currently have one cat, Annie, sometimes Iâll go several days without seeing her, so she doesnât have any effect on boarding different animals. Depending on the cat or dog, theyâll get along and play, but most times just completely ignores them. My family bred German Shepherds for several years growing up, so training puppies and dogs isnât something Iâm necessarily new too. I try to make it a fun experience, I spoil them with walks & treats, & lots of playtime, especially when my kids are here. (I promise my children will have more energy than your dog) Here's the deal, I'm not claiming to be the dog whispering Caesar Milan, but I feel I do possess the knowledge & skills to not only watch your furry friend but to actually care for them. Every animal is different & I will alter my approach and handling in different ways. If your dog loves to play with other dogs than they can play & party until the break of dawn, or if you've got yourself a bit of a lazy bones & they like to sun themselves on the deck all day, well that's fine too. I understand that I'm not only going to be caring for your pet, but a member of your family. I appreciate that some pet parents love & care for them as if they are their children. In fact, some may secretly like their pets more than their children, if that's the case that's just fine I'm not here to judge. (Either you've got some exceptionally awesome pets or some exceptionally terrible children) Jokes aside, I understand how important taking responsibility of your pet is & how important they are to you. I will not take charge of your four legged companion without all parties, including your pet, being as close to happy & content as paws-ible because let's face it, there's nothing I can do to make them as happy as they are then when they're with you. I try to be as flexible as possible because I do know that things change & I will do my best to accommodate your requests. If you would like to book a stay, & would like to do a meet & greet I recommend doing it at my house, I find it makes the most sense to have you & your pet come to the place where they will be staying. However I can make exceptions I understand being cautious about going to somebody's house or if it's a long distance we could possibly meet somewhere, We can also do a video chat & we can always text or make an old fashioned phone call. Please let me know what I can do to help alleviate any concerns or questions you may have. Iâm a disabled veteran, and I work several nights a week overnight, but most of the time Iâm home for most of the day. Iâm able to provide frequent potty breaks and usually take two long walks a day, depending on the size of the dog. Iâve owned German Shepherds and Great Danes and a Cocker Spaniel. My girlfriend likes to bring her dog over and play with the different dogs I have under my care, and we like to take them to dog parks or dog bars and let them mingle and socialize with. When I have my kids, my son especially, loves to hug and cuddle dogs, and they tend to always sleep on the floor in front of the kids bunk beds. As I previously stated I will tailor my approach to your pet by taking cues from them and their behavior as to what they may want or need. Some animals are so easy & take separation from their owners as if they were never there. While some however do not take the initial separation well. However, I do feel possess the adequate knowledge, skills, & experience to help lessen those puppy cries. I have slept on the couch during a four night boarding because she did not like to sleep downstairs alone and would cry all night long. I will go above and beyond and do my best to provide usually 2x daily pictures or video, progress reports, and again I realize and understand that plans change. Itâs not uncommon to modify a booking either shorter or longer depending on the circumstances.
âChrissonna is so amazing with our animals! Our crew can be a handful, but I always feel confident and comfortable leaving them all with her when we go away!â

âShelby took great care of my babies during the 4th of July weekend. She responds promptly and sends photos daily. I know my babies were given lots of love and snuggles while being watched. Thanks Shelbie!â

âAdam did an awesome job taking care of my fur babies. All three of them loved him, even my grumpy 12 year old. Adam left my house in perfect order. I highly recommend Adam and will reach out to him again!â

Starmount Forest pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nikki did a wonderful job pet sitting for our dog and cat. She maintained great communication including daily updates with photos which I really appreciated. My dog and cat both take medication and have some quirks and she dealt with all of it with confidence. My house was just how I left it when I returned, she even washed the towels and sheets! I felt very comfortable leaving my babies with her and will definitely be using her again in the future.

Ava was absolutely wonderful with my puppy! Sheâs my first puppy and Ava was my first sitter and Iâm so happy with everything! I even got a text from my neighbor telling me how good she had been with my girl :) will definitely use Ava again! Ps- she even got my scaredy cat to come out of hiding and get some scritchesss

Meredith really went above and beyond on this most recent trip for us! We went out of town just before the big snowstorm in Charlotte, and she was very consistent and timely taking care of Daisy despite the weather. Weâre so grateful to have her travel across town in less than ideal conditions, especially on a steeper hill nearby. Daisy got to play in the snow, and always got her treats and meds on time. So grateful for the help!

Kelsey is absolutely phenomenal! She is so responsive & amazing with our pets. She was accommodating when our travel plans were changed due to bad weather & stayed an extra day to make sure our pets werenât alone. You couldnât ask for a better, more reliable & competent sitter!

Reagan is incredible! It was our first time having someone dog sit at our house, but she quickly put us at ease. She took great care of the pups and our home. She had excellent communication and sent fun updates and pictures. We definitely plan on booking with her again!!

Lobo, our 12 year old 10lb rescue chihuahua mix approves! Matthew was so patient with him even though Lobo takes a bit to warm up to new people. By the end of their first day together they were buddies. Matthew sent us photo updates daily which really calmed my anxiety about having a new sitter. He paid good attention when touring the house and meeting Lobo for the first time, asking lots of good questions. We came home to a clean kitchen and the guest room already put back together after his stay too! Heâs definitely our new top pick dog/house sitter from the area!
