“Joanne was amazing!!! She took excellent care of our babies and sent lots of pictures from each visit. I loved that! She was communicative, reliable, and punctual. Our kitties seemed to love her. I would definitely recommend!”


“Rebooked with Kacey and Kelly a second time and they did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats while we were out of the country! It made our trip much better to know they were being well cared for and to get updates on them. Highly recommend!”


“Freya was amazing! She went above and beyond to take care of our cat who had some special medication requirements. She stayed in contact with us and sent us plenty of pictures and details about the care of our kitties. We could not be more happy with the care we received! I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pets.”


“Kendra was really great! I was nervous about using the app again since the last person I booked was a disappointment. However Kendra followed all my instructions, came to the checkin on time and communicated early when the schedule needed to be adjusted. Most of us understand the trepidation of inviting a stranger into our home to check on our fur babies but with Kendra I have no issue. I will definately be booking her for future drop-in!”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life from small to big, Terriars, Rottweilers, German Shepard, etc. I currently have a yellow lab named Rory. I have experience with all age dogs from puppies and elderly dog. I currently work full time 8-4:30 on weekday so I would be willing to come early morning, late afternoons, or nights. I am free anytime on weekends. I have an overly friendly Labrador at home who is very well trained. He goes on a walk at least once a day if not more but absolutely loves his big side yard where he gets to sunbathe! He has his spot on the couch where he naps most of the day away.

About: As a dog lover, I know how important it is to make sure your fur baby is well taken care of. I am more than happy to spend time playing with and walking dogs, or if theyre more docile, I'll sit with them and make sure they have the love they need daily. I love all dogs and will not turn down based on breed. I'll make sure the dogs are fed properly (adhering to scheduled eating times), have plenty of fresh water, and get nice long walks in! I'll gladly take them to a dog park so we can play! I also dont mind walking dogs in winter. I currently work full time Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm. I am able to check on any pet before work, between 5:00-7:00 am and after work from 5:00pm on. On the weekends I am available any time! I will follow any rules set up by the pet parents. I can easily crate dogs, and I can administer medicines to them with ease.

About: I’m new to Rover but have always loved animals! I’ve helped care for family pets by feeding them, taking them on walks, and giving them attention and love. Even though I don’t have professional experience yet, I’m super responsible, gentle, and quick to learn. I’m calm and patient, and I always pay close attention to your pet’s needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, treat your pet like my own, and keep you updated so you feel at ease. I work a part-time job, but I’m available on weekdays in the mornings and afternoons. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to spend time with your pet—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely and keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I respect your space, stay tidy, and give your pet my full attention while I’m there. Safety is always a priority—whether that means double-checking doors, using leashes properly, or making sure they’re never left unsupervised. I want both you and your pet to feel completely safe and cared for!

“Eileen was great! She took care of my kitten (Charlie) for 20 days and updated me with pictures and information about him throughout his stay with her. At first she was slow to respond to my messages before taking Charlie in but was great during his stay. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone.”


About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover based in Scranton, PA with years of experience caring for cats of all personalities and needs. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, medication, or just providing comfort and companionship, I know how to make feline friends feel safe and loved. While my primary experience has been with cats, I'm excited to expand my care to include dogs and other animals as well. I'm always eager to learn, and I approach every pet with patience, kindness, and respect for their unique needs. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and detail-oriented. I’m more than happy to follow your exact instructions to ensure your pet’s routine stays just the way they like it. And if I ever have any questions or concerns during a visit, I’ll reach out right away—your peace of mind is just as important as your pet’s well-being. Looking forward to meeting your furry family members! I am currently a full time hairstylist but have early morning, afternoon, and evening times available throughout the week. I am off Sunday and Monday so I have full availability those days! I am currently only able to care for your animals at your own home as my apartment does not allow dogs. But I will be sure to leave your home just as you left it and treat your pets like they are my own!

About: Hi neighbors! 🐾 My name is Matthew and I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 100lb Labrador who’s not just my pet—he’s my best buddy. We walk, hike, play, and explore every day, rain or shine! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own—with love, patience, and plenty of exercise. Whether you need regular walks, help on busy days, or just want your pup to get some extra attention, I’m here to help! Reliable. Experienced. Dog-obsessed. Let’s chat! 🐶💬 I currently work full time from home but I’m very active so I keep my dog active with me. We are up at 5am everyday going for runs/walks. On breaks we always get outside to enjoy the weather and allow him to use the bathroom if needed. After work if I’m not busy I love to take him to the dog park or on another walk around the neighborhood. So I’m available every weekday from 5am-8am and after work from 6pm-9pm I have a big open yard that I have an electric fence for my dog to go out as he needs with or without me. When leaving the yard he gets his harness put on and a leash with poop bags. We walk on the sidewalk at all times. We stop and sit before looking to see if we can cross the road.

About: I have an older female dog who needs help with daily activities and I will go on runs with your dogs to get them exercised and play with them for hours! Never miss a good brushing either Sitting for pets for perfectly with my schedule by I can go up to houses in the morning to visit and do their needs before going into work in the morning and go back at 12 to visit them again do my school work and come right back later after my second job to hang out once again! I tend to watch my animals 24/7 if I let them outside, make sure they are safe and there is no danger around. I personally pick up stuff that could harm or endanger them

About: Having pets since I was 7, I have long understood the importance of animal care. Since I was in high school, friends, family, and neighbors have asked for my help in pet sitting and house sitting. Over the years I have taken care of horses, goats, sheep, rodents, reptiles, insects, fish, birds, and of course dogs and cats. Needless to say, I am not afraid of any animal and believe all living creatures deserve the top quality care. I have two years of experience majoring in Wildlife Care, and have taken many courses in animal husbandry. This, along with my Dog and Cat first aid certification through the Red Cross, has made me fantastic at caring for the medical aspect of animal care. I can administer medication and handle emergencies with a clear head and a focus on the animal's well being. In the past, I have taken care of my own elderly/disabled dogs as well as those of my friends and family. This includes dogs in hospice care that have needed to be carried. While I have less experience with puppies than I do elderly dogs, I have raised and trained my own current dog from 1 y.o.. I am not afraid of the mess or energy level of puppies and puppy teeth don't bother me! I am a barista and am returning to school in the fall. With odd hours for a regular job, I know I can lend my services to someone who needs it! I take care of animals in the way the owner sees best, whether that's yard time, or walks, or both! I have no problem crating a dog, cleaning up after an animal, and giving medications or food.


About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I was the little kid that visited the neighbors just to see their dogs. I have dog sat on many occasions. I am very detail oriented and love abiding by schedules. I do not mind the size of the dog either. The more dogs you have the better. I will gladly meet the dog(s) beforehand to see if they are comfortable with me. Other pets are also welcome too! The most animals I have watched at one time was three dogs and one cat. I am not opposed to light cleaning for the animals when necessary. Any routines you have for feeding or walking will always be followed. If you have any questions please ask me. I look forward to meeting your pets!

About: I’ve grown up with many animals in my life and have always been surrounded by family and friends with cats and dogs. I promise to always treat your pet like my own and give it unconditional love like it deserves. I am a full time hairstylist just looking to hang with some cool cats & fun pups on the side while being able to help pet families in need. My cat Blue is treated like a Princess in my home- as she should. She rules this place. We love to sit near the window especially when the sun peeks through for sun bathing purposes. Dont even get me started when she hears a churu bag open- she becomes an Olympian sprinter. I am more than willing to do what is most comfortable for you & your pet! When it comes to cats I like to know which toys are their favorite so I know how to play with them comfortably. When it comes to dogs, just let me know which is the favorite ball & I’ll take it from there! All pets have their own quirks, so I like to make sure to go over everything with my clients beforehand so I can ensure to give your pet the best care possible.

“Tara is absolutely amazing! I had anxiety about leaving my kitten with someone for the first time and Tara made me feel so much better with regular updates and images! Will definitely be a returning customer to her.”

Victoria K.
“Victoria has been a wonderful caregiver for my German Shepherd, who normally struggles to trust new people. Her calm and caring nature quickly won him over, and now he lights up every time he sees her. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly loves animals. I feel completely at ease knowing my dog is in such good hands. I highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”


Emily S.
“Emily went above and beyond caring for my cat, Smokey, while I was away on vacation for two weeks. I had only asked her to stop by every other day, but she chose to visit him daily. She sent me regular photos and videos, fed and watered him, cleaned his litter box, and spent quality time playing with him. It was clear she truly fell in love with my cat, and I could trust her completely in my home. Her dedication and care gave me peace of mind while I was gone, and I’m so grateful. I will absolutely be asking her to help again next time!”

Kayleigh M.
“Kayleigh watches my dog and three cats for a week every summer and she does an excellent job every time. I knew she was great from the moment I contacted her. She came to the house, met the animals and asked questions about each of them. The most impressive thing, is that I can tell that my pets are well taken care of when I get home. They’re relaxed and show no signs of missing my family. This tells me what a great job she did. It’s one thing to throw some food out and make sure a litter box is clean; it’s another thing to make sure my pets felt loved and well cared for. If you’re looking for someone that’s conscientious and will treat your furry family members like they are her own, Kayleigh is your gal!”
