“Jessica was amazing. Took such good care of our two dogs and has expertise in grooming! I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with her and she made sure to update me everyday which made me feel better. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone!”
“We can’t say enough amazing things about Renee, she was truly our angel during a very stressful moment while we were on vacation in Florida. The place where our dog was staying unexpectedly call us and rudely demanded that we pick up our dog immediately. Being out there of state with no one nearby to help, we were completely panicked and heartbroken. My husband remember about Rover and he find Renee, she responded very quickly asking the situation and accept our booking. Without hesitation, she stepped in and went out of her way to pick up our dog for us. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and compassionate, exactly what we needed in that moment. She treated our puppy with so much love and care, like he was her own, and kept us updated and send us pictures of him smiling and acting like he is at home. We are beyond grateful for her kindness and will never forget what she did for us. Thank you, dear Renee, you are truly one of a kind!❤️🐾”
“Terri was amazing. So chill and relaxed around our sensitive dog. She is one of those rare sitters that does not have her own dogs or cats and is 100% dedicated to yours. She has a house and yard that are peaceful and quiet and in a great neighborhood for interesting walks. I would 100% recommend Terri, she is an absolute gem.”
“My pups had a great time with Adrienne, who accommodated us last minute. Our pups are high anxiety and they settled in quickly and happily for a couple of nights at her place. She’s great about providing the amount of updates you feel comfortable with, and was thoughtful with how she prepared for their stay. I would definitely recommend!”
“Sandra and her family are extremely loving. I just used her October 22nd-25th. This was the first time my first baby and I have been apart outside of dog training. I was extremely nervous. I went over about a week prior for a meet and greet. Her property is large and plenty of room for animals and kids to run and play. The amount of pics and updates I received each day was amazing. I knew Sam was having an amazing time making new friends and enjoying his mini vacation. I would highly recommend her and I will use her again in the future.”
“Great communication throughout the stay. She was also able to accommodate us when our flight was cancelled and we had to extend Jessie’s stay by a day. Very understanding”
“Annette is the best! I actually hesitate to leave a review because I don't want all of her spaces to fill up! Your dog will be welcomed into the fold and Annette will ask you about - and then pay attention to - their needs. She has been fostering for so long, she has literally seen everything – and can deal with everything. Teddy had a great time, and I left with new insights into her behaviors. Annette is a gem.”
“My 14 y o dog has never been happier! Received pictures daily and he was smiling throughout. Best accommodations ever. The family is extremely nice and the boys even drew a picture of the happy dog. I’m already booking another date. So happy to have found them!”
“Casey was awesome with Coda! She had a great time hanging out and running around with her dog Jojo. She’s already been sleeping most of the day just from all the fun she had there.”
“Samantha is truly a gem and cared for my dog like her own. She sent regular pics and videos. My dog felt at ease for 5 days with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”
“We booked her at the last minute and she was very flexible and helpful! She and her family took really good care of our pup. We loved the photos that she sent us of our dog playing.”
“Chris and Gerry are so nice, loving, and kind. My girls felt at ease while staying with them. It helps that they only take one client at a time. If you are looking for someone to love your babies like their own, look no further. Definitely book with Chris and Gerry!”
“Emily was wonderful. Very responsive and took great care of my dog. She also was very accommodating when I arrived back later then expected to pick up my dog. Will definitely use her again.”
“Oliver was so loved by Svitlana and her family. I had regular updates and photos, and my dog seemed so comfortable and happy while there. Svitlana was very communicative, and I highly recommend her. We will be repeat customers for sure.”
“Rosa stepped in at the last minute to care for our pup when another Rover sitter had to cancel! Very easy to communicate with. She's a former dog breeder so very experienced with dogs. She took great care of our Aussie.”
“Thank you so much for taking such phenomenal care of Snoopy! You completely put our minds at ease from the start. The daily photo updates were great and put our minds at ease. It was clear that he was in good hands. Snoopy came home happy and relaxed and we will definitely be booking again!”
“Extremely happy with the level of care and updates from John and Jess. They asked and followed all the care instructions specifically our dog required. Their house is spotless and their backyard is big, safe and well kept. We can travel with confidence knowing our dog is getting excellent care and company. Their dogs are friendly. We will use their services again. We highly recommend them.”

“Jessica and her daughter are a wonderful team! We had an unexpected last minute trip and she was able to come out and meet us straight away. They both came to care for our 3 cats and 2 guinea pigs. When one cat wouldn't eat, she texted right away and worked with us to get her fed separately. They played with our babies, took care of all the feeding and cleaning, and left our house spotless - even cleaning the animals food bowls! I highly recommend Jessica for your pet sitting needs. Thank you both for taking such great care of our babies!”
“Isela was absolutely fantastic with my cat, Gracie! She took great care of my girl, gave her medicine, and gave her plenty of attention. Gracie warmed up to Isela within the first hour of her being there. I came home to a clean apartment and a happy cat. I would definitely recommend Isela to watch your fur babies!”
“Poncho kitty and I are very grateful to have found Linda through Rover! She is kind, dependable, and trustworthy. I can tell my (often sensitive) boy was very comfortable when she visited with him while we were away. Linda sent pictures and was easy to communicate with during the whole process. Thank you, Linda!”

“Chelsea, is extremely reliable, polite and earnest about her responsibilities! I will most definitely be booking her for future visits!

About: I’ve dealt with dogs of my own of all sizes and breeds, as well as other animals such as chickens, goats, turkeys, and cats. I bond well with dogs and enjoy they’re company. I work full time and my usual days off are Tuesday and Saturday. I am usually off by 3 pm every day if not earlier. I have 2 dogs of my own but I don’t feel comfortable bringing outside dogs in with them on a regular basis, however I feel very comfortable watching/ playing with your pets in your home
About: Hi there! Currently doing repeats only, but feel free to reach out with inquiries to confirm whether my schedule might allow for a new booking. I’m most eager for drop ins and walks, yet offer sitting and boarding as well. I’m happy to offer a complimentary meet & greet ahead of services to ensure that it’s a good fit for all. I’ve had family pets of all species and sizes ever since I was born, growing up in 4H/ with large animals so I know a thing or two about general animal care. My experiences are varied and have lent to an above average animal sense. I’ve cared for senior pets, pets with advanced medical needs and my own animals during post-op recovery. One unique perk is that my sister is a veterinarian of 15 years and offers me an additional wealth of knowledge. Many might consider me a helicopter pet parent, which I’m proud to claim. No unsupervised grass/ twig chomping or foreign body scares with me around! I own two senior dogs: Remi and Paisley. They love everyone and everything but are at the age where sleep is the ruler of their day. I’m joining Rover semi selfishly because they have less ability for adventures now, yet unselfishly as any boarding time that your pet spends with us means spoiled vacation time with grandma and grandpa for them. However, I’m happy to keep them around if you have a puppy who needs socializing/ wise knowledge gathering from their elders. My schedule is currently limited to biweekly availability. Repeat clients are able to reach out to inquire about specific dates even if they are not listed. I’m currently customizing my calendar week to week and will open days up as needed. Feel free to inquire. In my home/ in life, pets are considered cherished family members. I am attentive, interactive and just overall excited to meet some new furry pals. I can keep up with any personality from frantic ball chaser to subdued couch potato. I know that every pet is different just as any human is different and am happy to accommodate in whatever way makes all happy.
About: Hello my name is Chelsea. I am a surgical veterinary technician at a busy animal hospital and online college student studying to become a registered veterinary technician. I live in Fairfield PA with my boyfriend and pack of rescue animals. This includes a blind kitty named Hank, a little orange tabby cat named Phoebe, a pitbull mix named Harper, and a foxhound named Roger. I have a passion for helping pets in need and so they have all come to live with me through different but unfortunate circumstances. Work, volunteering at rescue, and caring for my own animals has made me comfortable giving medications, feeding animals, and bathing animals with various medical needs. Please reach out to me with any questions. I work full time Monday to Thursday, 10+ hour shifts but am typically free Friday, Saturday, and Sunday as well as most national holidays (unless I am on call for work). Due to my very small house and other animals I cannot provide in home pet sitting or boarding at this time. I can however come to you if you live relatively close by. I can provide walks, play time, feeding/watering, etc in a clients home instead.
“I was so happy to have Meghan (and her girls) take care of our cat while we were on vacation. They are fantastic. I highly recommend Meghan for your pet sitting needs!”

There are farm animals as well that are kept in their own pastures and farm dogs that live with the other farm animals.
“Karen is awesome! The dogs responded really well to her. It was a hot day but she made sure they got enough outside time and gave them lots of pets and treats inside. She sent me updates and made sure everything was done just right before heading out. I'd definitely book with Karen again.”
“Candice was absolutely perfect. She always gave me detailed updates and was very responsive with her messages. She went above and beyond my expectations. My boys were very well taken care of and very loved while I was gone. Will definitely be working with her again the next time I’m away.”

“Will definitely use Sydney again. I don’t trust very many people with my baby but she did an amazing job with him :) very attentive to my pup. He was very excited to be dropped off in the morning. He came home tired and happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave him with❤️”
“Ellen is great! She has a big heart and is an animal person through and through. We started out with a few boarding visits and now go to Ellen for day care every week. She’s very easy to work with and has a great location for dogs to run around/play/hike. Thanks Ellen!”
About: Experience with multiple breeds of dogs ranging from Toy Poodles, Rottweilers, Shepards, Mastiffs, etc. experience with other animals as well ex. Goats, baby pigs, ferrets, etc. I have a work from home schedule, with an occasional in office day during the week, so majority of my time is spent at home. I have a fenced in yard with room to play, along with two of my own friendly dogs. Relaxing environment and great area to take walks in the neighborhood if your pet likes to be active.Based off your preference of your pets being allowed on furniture beds/couches I will go by to make them feel as close to home as possible.
“Sandra is amazing with the doggers. Very attentive and her place gives them plenty of run/play room. She is always making sure all the dogs get along with each other and gives them all a fair chance to play with each other. Very accommodating day and time wise and very affordable too. She is always willing to make suggestions and answer questions concerning care and behavior dilemmas I may have with my pup. If he could talk he would say “I love going to Ms. Sandra’s for play dates” and gets very excited when I ask him if he wants to go see her. Give her a try you will keep going back.”
About: I have a wide variety of experience with all sorts of animals. I’ve had large and small dogs, cats, rodents, amphibians, and lizards, I even had a pot belly pig, sheep & duck as a child. I also volunteered at a local vet when I was a teenager and gained a lot of hands on experience caring for many types of animals! I’m a stay at home mom and I homeschool my two teenage daughters. They absolutely adore animals as well. I feel this will allow me to spend a lot of one on one time with your pet. Your fur baby will be well cared for and interacted with while they’re here! (Please note that Rover doesn’t consider my children’s ages to count towards, “children being present in our home.” However, I think this information should be available to those who choose to put their pets in my care. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby to run! I also have separate family room in my house where our dogs sleep at night, and that is where I would put crates if they need to be crated at any time.
“Pamela did a fantastic job with Kiera today! Her knowledge And her previous work with rescues is such a bonus since she has that second sense on how dogs will react together! Kiera can be a bit standoffish with new dogs but she did excellent with Ruby, thanks to Pamela! Thank you Pamela!!”
About: Although we are new to the area, we are definitely not new to caring for dogs. We recently purchased the well-known dog kennel in Smithsburg and are in the process of restoring it. Parts of the kennel are already fully functional, and we’re excited to begin welcoming dogs while we continue improving the property. It’s a place many people in the community already know, and we feel lucky to be able to carry on its history. Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with them and honestly can’t remember a time when I didn’t love being around them. That same love has followed me into adulthood. Over the years I’ve naturally become the neighborhood go-to pet sitter. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me with their pets for years, and I always care for them the same way I care for my own dogs — with patience, attention, and lots of affection. One of the things I’m most proud of is the therapy work I did with my dog. I trained and certified her as a therapy dog, and for 10 years we volunteered together in hospitals and nursing homes. That experience actually inspired my career path, and I went on to become a certified occupational therapist. My sweet therapy dog has since passed away after a long and wonderful life. She was incredibly special to me. I’m now starting that journey again with my new puppy, Merango, and hope to continue therapy work in the future. Right now I’m taking some time away from my occupational therapy work to focus on renovating and restarting the kennel. It’s something I’ve always dreamed about doing, and I’m excited to bring new life to a place that so many people in the community already know. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with medical needs, including giving medications like insulin injections. Our property has large outdoor fenced runs that give dogs plenty of space to move around and enjoy the fresh air in a quiet farm setting. injections. I’m currently focused on renovating and restoring the kennel property, which allows me to be home most of the day and provide consistent supervision and care for the dogs staying with us. We are early risers in our home and typically start the day around 7 AM with potty breaks and breakfast. Mornings are usually spent outside enjoying the property — going on walks around our 20-acre farm or spending time in the fenced runs while I do morning chores. Around lunchtime everyone, animals included, usually settles in for a quiet rest period. I check that everyone has fresh water and food if needed before nap time. In the mid-afternoon we head back outside for more activity. Depending on the dog, this may include running in the fenced fields, exploring the property on a guided walk, or simply relaxing in the fresh air. Dinner is around 6 PM, followed by a calm evening inside. We finish the day with a final potty break and check-in before bedtime around 9 PM. My goal is to give dogs a peaceful farm stay with plenty of space to move, fresh air, and a consistent routine so they feel comfortable and relaxed while they’re away from home I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. When I first started using Rover for my own dogs, I remember feeling nervous too. I always appreciated sitters who kept me updated, so I make a point to do the same. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can see how your dog is doing and feel confident they’re happy and well cared for. On our property, dogs have access to spacious individual indoor/outdoor kennel runs where they can relax comfortably. We also have several large fenced areas where dogs can safely run, play, and explore. Safety is always my top priority, and dogs are supervised during outdoor time to make sure everyone stays happy and secure
“Rosa did an excellent job taking care of my boy, she took him outside on plenty of walks, fed him the exact right amount, and sent me pictures throughout the day! I would highly recommend her to anybody who needs care for their pet.”
About: I have over 45 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages as well as many other types of animals that have honored me with living with me over the years (cats, horses, guinea pigs, gecko, Madagascar hissing cockroach, parrots, flying squirrel, rabbits). My original dream was to become a vet so I have a background interning with veterinarian, working multiple years in a grooming and boarding facility and had my own very successful animal care and sitting business as a teenager. I have great nail trimming skills as well! Animals are naturally drawn to me and sense my love and respect for them. I work remotely so am pretty flexible with schedules. I also have taken the pet CPR course! I work remotely from home so am flexible in what I can offer. I feed my own pets multiple times a day and am able to monitor what is consumed. I also live in a beautiful community near parks for nice walks. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs who live next door who are always interested in playdates if desired. I work remotely so have flexibility in what I can offer clients. I do have a crate on premises if you do not have although I prefer (as do pets) for them to have their familiar one! There are friendly cats who live with me although I would likely gate off my kitchen / sunroom area where my office is so that I can supervise and ensure harmony with unknown pet if in my home.
About: I have experience, taking care of cats, dogs, and chickens. I am willing to take care of smaller animals, such as hamsters, birds or guinea pigs as well. During the summer, I am home most days of the week. I am a full time teacher so I am off during the summer. Therefore I am very reliable and flexible with times. I have a fenced in yard that’s big enough for dogs to get some exercise. I have two kids who enjoy seeing and meeting new animals.
“Our puppy loves spending time with Ben and Alexa! Their farm is perfect for allowing her to run out energy and get used to a variety of animals - horses, chickens, etc. Honestly, we're jealous of the time she gets to spend there! Ben and Alexa clearly love her as much as we do, and treat her like family. They send lots of photos so I always know what she's up to. She comes home completely exhausted :) We'll absolutely continue to book stays with them and highly recommend them for anyone else looking for wonderful, caring sitters!”

About: I have a strong love for animals, and have grown up with many different species my whole life. I currently have 3 cats, but I love dogs as well and hope to get one of my own someday. I have worked at multiple doggie daycare/boarding facilities and have worked at a veterinary hospital for over 4 years. My goal is to become a veterinarian someday so I can continue helping animals lifelong. I have been dogsitting and dogwalking for years but I would like to expand into having more customers around my area. I am a very responsible caretaker and do the tasks I am asked to do readily and on time. I also love to take pictures of pets so you will get lots while you’re away (if you elect so). I hope to meet you and your wonderful pets sometime soon! I graduated college over a year ago with a bachelor degree in biology and currently have some free time on my hands while continuing my education further online. I always check over the environment in which the animal is staying in beforehand to make sure there isn’t anything they could get their self into.
About: In my opinion, animals are the best thing in the world! Especially when they become pets. I am a nurse at Johns Hopkins Hospital, but I have always had other passions. One passion would definitely be my love for animals and nature! When I am not at the hospital I would love to get to know you and your family pet! I love all animals so much ... I got allergy weekly/biweekly shots (2 in each arm) to prove it!! I am super interested in caring for your family pet and making them feel like you never left home! I am interested in walking, sitting, home visits and boarding animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, cows, chickens, pigs, rabbits, hamsters, hermit crabs, etc! I am skilled at taking care of many different animals. I currently own a dachshund and a Bichon poo. My dogs are my world!! If you want someone who will treat your pet like family I am your girl! I work night shift so I am available most days and some night to help out when needed! Feel free to contact me!

I have a blind/deaf pug as well. I do a lot of housesitting and dogsitting it’s always a joy! My home is on an acre. I have my own business out of my home, and so I am home all day and your pet will not be left alone! I am home all day running my health coach business. Pet care will keep me busy and your animal happy..and the resident dogs will love having playmates! I do have a portion of my yard fenced in so the dogs have lots of room to run and play and be dogs. Dogs are rarely crated unless they are used to that and the owner request that they have time in their crate. I am home the majority of the time. I work from home on a part-time basis so I am with the dogs the majority of the time. When the dogs come to my home, it is like they are on their own little vacation. They have a good time playing with the other dogs and go home tired.
About: I’ve always been drawn to helping animals, regardless as to if it’s simply taking them outside to walk, potty or even down to the medicine side to helping with emergencies & simple annual visits. I currently am a Vet Technician at a Vet hospital in East Berlin, Pennsylvania. I just want to be more involved with my days off on the more simpler side of animals. I rceently moved out of a home with 3 dogs, 3 cats and a tortoise. So my experience with animals in home is endless, but now I currently live with my three cats that are very well loved.
“Matthew is responsive, conscientious and clearly experienced in working with animals. He walks our three dogs, including managing our dog-reactive German Shepherd. We will absolutely continue working with him and consider ourselves lucky to have found such a great person to care for our animals.”
About: Ive taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. From watching the neighbors dogs to my own family pets. I will spoil them with love and attention as well as making sure their needs are met, like daily walks, playtime etc. I’m currently working Monday-Friday 8:30-4:00 pm. Weekends I’m full availability. Will actively communicate with pet parents to ensure animals needs are met. Reach out if this works out for your needs! I have a fenced yard and watch dogs as they are actively in the yard. Can do walks for active dogs, and play time. Whatever is best needed for that animal I will provide.

“Jessica was amazing. Took such good care of our two dogs and has expertise in grooming! I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with her and she made sure to update me everyday which made me feel better. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone!”
“We can’t say enough amazing things about Renee, she was truly our angel during a very stressful moment while we were on vacation in Florida. The place where our dog was staying unexpectedly call us and rudely demanded that we pick up our dog immediately. Being out there of state with no one nearby to help, we were completely panicked and heartbroken. My husband remember about Rover and he find Renee, she responded very quickly asking the situation and accept our booking. Without hesitation, she stepped in and went out of her way to pick up our dog for us. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and compassionate, exactly what we needed in that moment. She treated our puppy with so much love and care, like he was her own, and kept us updated and send us pictures of him smiling and acting like he is at home. We are beyond grateful for her kindness and will never forget what she did for us. Thank you, dear Renee, you are truly one of a kind!❤️🐾”
“Terri was amazing. So chill and relaxed around our sensitive dog. She is one of those rare sitters that does not have her own dogs or cats and is 100% dedicated to yours. She has a house and yard that are peaceful and quiet and in a great neighborhood for interesting walks. I would 100% recommend Terri, she is an absolute gem.”
“Sandra and her family are extremely loving. I just used her October 22nd-25th. This was the first time my first baby and I have been apart outside of dog training. I was extremely nervous. I went over about a week prior for a meet and greet. Her property is large and plenty of room for animals and kids to run and play. The amount of pics and updates I received each day was amazing. I knew Sam was having an amazing time making new friends and enjoying his mini vacation. I would highly recommend her and I will use her again in the future.”
“Great communication throughout the stay. She was also able to accommodate us when our flight was cancelled and we had to extend Jessie’s stay by a day. Very understanding”
“Annette is the best! I actually hesitate to leave a review because I don't want all of her spaces to fill up! Your dog will be welcomed into the fold and Annette will ask you about - and then pay attention to - their needs. She has been fostering for so long, she has literally seen everything – and can deal with everything. Teddy had a great time, and I left with new insights into her behaviors. Annette is a gem.”
“My 14 y o dog has never been happier! Received pictures daily and he was smiling throughout. Best accommodations ever. The family is extremely nice and the boys even drew a picture of the happy dog. I’m already booking another date. So happy to have found them!”
“Casey was awesome with Coda! She had a great time hanging out and running around with her dog Jojo. She’s already been sleeping most of the day just from all the fun she had there.”
“Samantha is truly a gem and cared for my dog like her own. She sent regular pics and videos. My dog felt at ease for 5 days with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”
“We booked her at the last minute and she was very flexible and helpful! She and her family took really good care of our pup. We loved the photos that she sent us of our dog playing.”
“Emily was wonderful. Very responsive and took great care of my dog. She also was very accommodating when I arrived back later then expected to pick up my dog. Will definitely use her again.”
“My pup always loves staying with Robin and playing with her dog and kids. He comes back to me happy and I get some nice photos and videos while I'm gone. Looking forward to repeat business.”
“Marieliz was fantastic with our dog. We have a larger breed dog, and she was confident and able to handle him with no problem. She made us feel very comfortable while traveling, keeping us up-to-date with a daily summary and photos and videos of how he was doing and what they did throughout the day. She kept his routine, and feeding schedule the same way we have it at home. She gave him a great deal with love and he came back happy and healthy. We would definitely use her again.”
“My Dog had a great stay with Kacy. They took great care of him and kept him company. Provided me with updates and photos which was great while we were away. I recommend Kacy to anyone. Her and her fiance did an amazing job. My dog will be going back there again soon.”
“Jennifer was awesome! This is our 3rd time using her services. My fur baby, Apollo, stayed with her over Thanksgiving. Jennifer was very accomodating and sent us pictures daily. She also takes extra precautions to make sure the dog is safe. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!!”
“Karen was extremely nice, very welcoming of our pup Milo! she kept me updated with videos and pics which really showed how happy and safe Milo was! I really recommend her and will definitely keep booking with her in a future😊😊”
