I would give her a six star rating if I could.”

“Liliya and her family were great with Sophie. This was Sophie’s first experience staying with a sitter so I was a bit nervous how she would do. During Sophie’s stay Liliya sent many pics and updates about Sophie’s routine. This really put my mind at ease and Sophie seemed very content. I also love that Liliya, her husband and two young kids played a role in the sitting which means Sophie got lots of attention. I highly recommend Liliya! I will be using her again next time I travel.”
“Peppa is a small Chihuahua and can be shy and cautious with new people, but Michael handled her with great patience and understanding. He was able to gain her trust the very same day, which truly impressed me. He kept us updated with pictures almost every day, and it was wonderful to see that she felt comfortable enough to go outside and even play with his dog. He made sure she was safe and at ease at all times, which gave me real peace of mind. I truly appreciate the care and effort he put into looking after her. I would definitely book with him again 💯. Great service!”
“My dog Fiona Loves Lingwen she was great with Fifi and she is good with all her dogs in general I was very impressed she took the time to keep me updated sending me pictures of Fifi about all the fun stuff they were doing I was almost afraid my dog would not want to come home with me.

I was unusually anxious, but he came over to meet me and them and learn their routine, and made me feel comfortable right away. He was very patient with Biscuit, who's shy, and I could tell Mango felt comfortable around him. Will definitely book with him again the next time I need a cat sitter.”
“This is my first time trying Rover and Ann Marie was great! She stopped by a few days before the scheduled dates to learn the specifics of taking care of my cats. It was also a good chance to get to know her and she provided references. The care she gave my cats was superb!”

“My dog was in great hands with Vicky! Very easy to schedule and coordinate with, and Rosie seems to have had a great time. I would definitely trust her to take care of Rosie anytime!”
“Lee was really fantastic with August. He was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and even some videos of August which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Lee if you're in the Worcester area and I will definitely be rebooting with him next time I'm in tbr stra.”
“Melissa and her family took very good care of my pups when I needed last minute help. I was very grateful for their kindness and quick communication throughout the day. Will definitely use again when needed. Thank you!!”
“Our pup has enjoyed spending days with Dawn and it is especially nice for us to have a place where she can comfortably interact with young children, as we don’t have that opportunity to offer her at home. Dawn also has a great fenced in backyard with lots of interesting things to smell and ways to run around and work off energy, which is great for both our pup and for us when we pick her up and know that she’s had a fun filled active day!”
“Meli took such great care of my fur baby! From the moment I was in touch with Meli, I felt safe and excited about the opportunity to have Ollie spend the day with her and her pup Nina. She was warm and assuring, and very quick to respond to messages! When I met Meli in person to drop Ollie off, I was happy to find such a friendly and kind person in real life, too! She sent me photos and updates throughout the 6 hours that Ollie was with her for “day care” (without me even needing to ask!) and I could tell he was having fun and being taken care of so well! I would absolutely recommend Meli and would love to have Ollie stay with her again if we need a sitter in Bloomington. Thanks Meli! ?”
“My pup, Beau enjoyed his time with Victoria and her two dogs a lot; he was very happy when I picked him up and will look forward to spending much more time with Victoria and her lovely home with a fenced-in yard.”
“Elaine & Ken are wonderful. Their dog Brady is a great companion too :). So glad to have found them ! I have peace of mind when working when my pup Gator is with them. Very kind , reliable & responsible. My pup always looks forward to seeing them.”
“Rhadika is a wonderful sitter! She took great care of Bruno and she communicated with me many times during the day with details and photos! Very much appreciated! We will use her again.”
“Once again, Joy didn’t want to leave! She thinks visiting at Swetha’s is Doggy Disney. I had something come up at the last minute and Swetha was very understanding and accommodating. Thank again for taking such great care of Joy!”
“Anastasia was fantastic!!!! She was professional and very detailed on how their visit would be. I felt very confident leaving my two dogs with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter in a comfortable home.”
“Here’s a warm, genuine 5-star review you could leave: We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Lingwen! She took exceptional care of Max and treated him like he was part of her own family. Throughout his stay, she kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from every update that she genuinely cared about his happiness, comfort, and well-being. Max came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. We truly appreciated her kindness, attention to detail, and the personal touch she brought to every aspect of his care. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated to caring for their pet. Thank you so much, Lingwen! 🐾❤️”
“Delia was absolutely fantastic taking care of our nine month old puppy Oakley. We had to travel from out of state to Massachusetts for a funeral and she kept our puppy for most of the day, keeping us updated with pictures and videos along the way. Very conscientious and easy to communicate with. Highly recommended!”
About: In my house or yours! What sets me apart is that I offer truly personalized, low-volume care in a calm home environment. Mine or yours. I only take one or two guest dogs at a time, so your dog gets lots of individual attention, affection, and supervision — not the chaos of a large kennel or crowded daycare setting. I’ve cared for six dogs of my own throughout my life and loved every one of them through all stages of life, including senior years and end-of-life care. I understand how important routines, patience, comfort, and trust are when caring for someone’s beloved pet. I love all dogs, but my home is especially well-suited for: • Dogs who prefer a quieter environment • Dogs needing medication or special routines • Dogs who don’t do well in large group settings • Dogs who are not friendly with other dogs* • Owners looking for flexible pickup/drop-off times Your dog will enjoy a fully fenced backyard, one daily leash walk, personalized feeding and medication schedules, and lots of companionship throughout the day. Plus flexible pick up and drop-off times. My goal is simple: I want your dog to feel safe, relaxed, loved, and at home while you’re away. I am willing to take 3 dogs, but only if they all come from the same home. *If you require your dog to be the ONLY dog in the household, please reach out to me before booking. I work primarily from home, so dogs in my care receive lots of companionship, supervision, outdoor time, and attention throughout the day — not long periods left alone. In my home, dogs are treated like part of the family with plenty of supervision, companionship, outdoor time, a daily walk, and personalized feeding or medication schedules. I only care for one or two dogs at a time to maintain a calm, low-stress environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away.
About: I have lot's of experience in pet care. I walked dogs, pet and house sat for many years in my 20s and after moving to Lancaster a few years ago began pet-sitting again here. My wife and I work from home, which allows us to spend all day with our beloved Havenese Geordi. We all enjoy having other dogs come to play and stay! My wife and I both work from home. My office has a back door out to our fenced in yard so I am able to let the dogs out pretty much anytime they like. I can't even count how many times a day my dog goes out back. I also like to take the dogs on a stroll around the block before and after work. As mentioned I have a fenced in yard and a Havanese who loves to have dog guests to play with and stay over. We give all the dogs lots attention and always make sure their needs are met.

About: I grew up taking care of dogs since high school! Friends have always called me the dog whisperer. Extremely patient with dogs and worked at a dog salon as a dog bather for 4 years. I do currently have a dog of my own, Bob, a Brussels Griffon. My partner, Dylan, and I work at home 4/5 days. We stagger our days so that someone is always home with the dogs and are never left at home alone. We both work together to make sure my dog and yours are interacting well with each other and are having a good time! We are happy to accommodate any dogs that need extra TLC during the work week from 8/8:30AM to 5:30PM. We are unable to do pick ups later than 5:30PM at this time. Your dog will be able to join us on our morning and midday walk! We only take one dog at a time to provide the highest quality care. I have an unfenced yard, but will always take your dog out leashed. Your dog will be a part of our family during the stay and is allowed on all furniture.
“Glad we found Michael for our Shepsky for a week stay. He took great care of our dog. Updated about our dog well being and just cared like a family member. Michael responds very quickly and would recommend without hesitation.”
“Marlowe loves going to Melissa’s for daycare. He gets socialized with other dogs and plays outside. Melissa is always flexible and understanding if I’m running behind a little.”
“I had to find someone to watch Archie last minute and Paola took him right in! She sent so many pics and updates it was fantastic! And unbelievably, Archie is tired!!! He is a very high energy pup so it's great to have a sleepy pup after a long day at work. Thank you!”
About: I have been taking care of the dogs and cats since I was a very young, the age of 14 and I absolutely love animals. I’m home full-time. So taking care of your pet with love cuddles is no problem i have a large yard and part of it fully fenced in. I do have security cameras inside and outside to protect all animals in my home. I am very good about sending lots of updates so you can see your pet having lots of fun. I pride myself on being a home away from home! I’m full time at home so i have nothing but time to spend hanging out, playing and spoiling your pet when you are away! I love being outside I have a big house they can come in to cool off or warm up depending on weather. I have a large yard mostly fenced and a smaller area fully fenced.

“Ben has been taking excellent care of my puppy Dexter. He is only 9 weeks old and has a crazy amount of energy. He has been going in 2 times a day which is a lot! He always quickly responds when I reach out to him. I love the pics he sends because Dexter looks super happy. Thank you Ben!”
“Alexandra was great! She responded quickly for availability and kept me updated frequently. Zeus loved her as well and he can be tricky sometimes! I would definitely book a walk with her again.”
“Louca worked wonders for us and our super reactive miniature dachshund. His patience, knowledge, and professional and positive attitude were a huge relief after searching for and failing to find someone to look after our dog when we were away for short periods. Louca has given us so much hope for our little puppy’s future and we look forward to working with him again! Thank you Louca !!”
“Ann Marie has been wonderful with our pup. She is kind, professional, and trustworthy. I feel comfortable allowing her into our home. Her updates and photos brighten my day everytime and she is very sweet to our girl.”
About: I've worked at a dog daycare for over a year now. I drive dogs home and pet sit as well. Always making sure all the pops get as much play, exercise and love as possible!! I am available any time Monday through Friday after 1pm to take care of your pups. I am available for weekends too! Whatever you need! For pet and house sitting I always make sure the dogs are loved and cared for. I feed them, let them out to use the bathroom, walks, play time, and hangout with them!
“Logan is awesome!! She did a great job walking Stella. Stella was so excited for her walk each day, and I loved seeing the pictures and updates. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you, Logan!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience caring for both children and pets. I have two dogs of my own and regularly dog-sit for a variety of breeds, so I’m comfortable with different temperaments, routines, and energy levels. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to individual needs—whether that means helping with basic puppy training, following detailed care instructions, or providing extra support for senior pets. My experience and nurturing approach help me create a safe, loving, and reliable environment for every family and pet I care for. I’m currently working at an elementary school during the week but I am available late afternoons/nights and some weekends to come play with your pets! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the routine and instructions provided to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, and receive any needed medications or special care. I keep the home clean and tidy, respect the space, and provide updates to owners so they feel confident their pets are safe and happy. My goal is to treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: I’ve owned pets since my daughter was young and brought her first kitten home. I’ve been helping her to walk dogs for a couple years now. I’m retired so my schedule is fairly open. It gets me walking and outside, two things I enjoy. It helps my health and makes me feel good. Happy to walk your dog! Cannot have pets stay at my house as I have a kitty cat of my own. His name is Toby and he’s a real pain in the butt! 😂
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life and love animals more than anything! I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and can even help take care of your other small pets if needed. I have 10 years of experience working with/training dogs and would love to help you out with your furry friends! I currently have open availability! I have a few dogs who have long standing daily spots in my schedule but there is still plenty of time for me to help out with your fur babies! I will be giving your pets my undivided attention the entire time they are in my care. I never walk multiple dogs together (unless they are from the same household) and only let them off leash in a well secured fenced in area. The rest is up to you, let me know what you are comfortable with and I will happily abide.
About: Grew up with animals, cats and birds and reptiles in my house, farm animals at grandma’s. I have a cat now, fostered a senior dog for a while years ago, and have lots of family and friends with dogs/cats. I also volunteer weekly at my local animal shelter. I work full time as a scientist but my hours are flexible and usually done around 3-4pm I’m currently working full time. However my hours are early and flexible, i usually leave between 3-4pm and will try to accommodate clients based on my availability and work Safety is always a priority.that means House doors locked behind me, windows closed, making sure your pet is fed/walked/played with and are happy when i leave them

I promise to provide exceptional service.

Due to weather we needed to adjust our stay and she quickly responded to my messages and helped work through how to navigate the Rover site ? We are looking forward to having our dog stay with Julie again soon.”
