She was very communicative and kept me up to date on how he was doing. Definitely recommend. I will be booking with her next month as well.”

She will be my default whenever we need to board our dogs going out of town.”

About: I am a firm believer that pets are family members and should be treated as such. I grew up always having a dog in the house. I am a very loving and caring person and have always found comfort in having a pet around and taking care of them. I have two dogs of my own and two guinea pigs. They are my world and are very spoiled. I have experience in giving medication or special care as mine require that as well, feeding, bathing, and walking. I work three 12 hour shifts a week and one weekend a month so I have plenty of open opportunities to take care of your fur babies! I am committed into following any certain order or instructions you are willing to give me in taking care of your pet. I am passionate in keeping your animal comfortable in the environment that they know and love.

About: Hi, I’m Natalie! — a lifelong animal lover and devoted pet parent to birds and a tortoise who both have their own rooms which allows for complete separation while your animal(s) are here! With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds, I know every animal deserves personalized attention and love. Because I do have epilepsy, I provide pet care at my home, where your furry, feathered, or scaled friend will be safe, happy, and treated like family while you’re away. Although I do only take 1 CLIENT at a time, if your house has more than 1 animal, I ABSOLUTELY allow all animals from the same household at the same time! I do work from home which allows me full attention to be able to play, feed, let outside, and anything else that your pet may need, want or require! Although I do only take 1 CLIENT at a time, if your house has more than 1 animal, I ABSOLUTELY allow all animals from the same household at the same time! I have a fully fenced in backyard which allows for lots of outside zoomies, and also a couple balls for some outside fun! I do have a XL- “Kong” crate if needed, I also have food and water bowls, I never mind if dogs are allowed on furniture and or beds. I also have experience with senior dogs, administering meds and dogs that may need to be diapered!
“Lauren was ABSOLUTELY great with King! He took to her right away and after the Meet and Greet, I was comfortable and convinced that King would be well looked after, and he was. Lauren is very attentive which is great since my fur baby is a Senior dog. You will not be disappointed if you book with her! Thanks Lauren!”

About: My experience includes caring for cats and doggies, including pups, with a variety of personalities and energy levels. Super comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining feeding and medication schedules when needed, managing puppy potty breaks and exercise, and providing the same attention (and cuddles) for kitties. I prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions to ensure pets feel well cared for! I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to do drop ins when needed as well as at home care/boarding attentively. I also live with my partner who can offer a second set of eyes in the afternoons and evenings! As part of our normal routine to stay active, my partner and I regularly like to step out for sun and take brief walks around the community area—so unless specified otherwise, we are happy to take your doggo along with us on our short walks (during boarding services). We have a two bedroom apartment where pets can roam and hang out in the common living space and guest room, as needed. Pets will not be allowed in our primary bedroom.

About: My name is pronounced like Taya. I have been providing pet care personally and professionally since I was in high school. When I started, I genuinely just loved being around animals and wanted a way make an income while doing something I enjoyed. Years later and I still hold the same sentiment. My family and I have always welcomed dogs and cats into our homes and cared for them as additional kids in the household. I took a break from pet care to focus on building myself and my goals, but now as a homeowner of three years, I want to extend my home and services again to your fur babies. I work full-time, 100% remotely from home for a law firm located in Pennsylvania. I am always at home, especially during the weekdays, with my six pets (two dogs and four cats). I have a flexible schedule and can arrange my work day accordingly. I am able to work with you and your pet's needs, so just communicate with me! I have a 0.3 acre fenced yard that my two dogs absolutely love to race around in. They get great exercise out there and are able to release their high energy. I am attuned to my animal's needs and provide a lot of supervision and care since I am usually at home. The same way that I would treat my own pets/home is exactly how I would treat and respect yours. I am reliable, punctual, and compassionate.
About: Fortunately, I was born into an animal loving family so I was blessed to have and care for animals of all kinds. Includes but not limited too: hermit crabs, gerbils, fish and more. Since birth I’ve been fascinated about learning how to care for all animals especially mammals/dogs. I truly believe that dogs are a humans best friend and I’ve been potty training, house training, walk training and more since having my first fur baby Tyra (full blooded German Sheppard) at the age of 12 who just passed this last year. I’ve been rescuing animals since I can remember and I’ve been volunteering at shelters and in the community since middle school. Pets are truly my passion & I believe in caring for those who are sometimes unable to care for themselves. If God grants me the opportunity, I would be more than honored and grateful to care for your fur baby as well. Thank you for your time & consideration. Fortunately, I was blessed with a work from home job so I can give most of my time, attention & affection to the fur babies I need. With my own fur baby and when I baby sit others we stick to our schedule and routine throughout the day so they can be physically enriched and mentally stimulated; such as but not limited too 4-6 times of walking, a kiddie pool on hotter days, fruit and or peanut butter treats, new toys and more depending on the specific needs of your fur babies. Thank you for your time & consideration. Regardless of the environment pets are my passion and I will treat your fur babies like my own. Depending on the specific needs I’ll be more than happy to provide extra play time, extra treats or toys depending on trainings such as potty training or walk training so your pup no longer pulls you while you walk. I also don’t mind providing bath time, medications or even taking your pup to the vet or their favorite park for a pup play date. Lastly, I will be sure to provide hourly and or daily checkups so you can relax, unwind and have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe, happy and is in blessed and gentle hands. Thank you for your time & consideration.
“Isa took such great care of our puppy! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my puppy with a sitter instead of a doggy daycare. Isa answered all of my questions about the process and gave me the chance to come meet her first. She was also very flexible as I had to book it sort of last minute and didn't have an exact time of when we would be picking up our puppy. Also our puppy was still finishing recovery from a recent surgery, and Isa was very understanding of this and made sure he got enough Rex. I really appreciated Isa's updates and pictures throughout the day, and I know our puppy had a lot of fun as he was very tired when he got home! Thank you again Isa, we will definitely bring our puppy back in the future!”
“Our first time using Rover. Meet and greet was very nice and felt like we just made some new friends. I think Charlie was treated like a king. Will definitely be our go to when we need a sitter. 🙂”

About: I have taken care of so many different dogs and cats and other pets since I was 10 years old. I have watched for friends and family and really enjoy spending time with pets. I work on reduced time at amazon so I work on Sundays, Monday and Tuesdays and then on thursdays and fridays I work at a dog boarding facility.

I’m dependable, caring, and would treat your fur babies like they’re my own. I’d love the opportunity to help with walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting! 💕 I have a nice-sized home and prefer pets who enjoy being indoors. Your pet will have their own comfortable space in my home, and you’re welcome to bring a crate or kennel if they’re more comfortable with their own setup. I can also provide their usual food if needed. I have two children, ages 2½ years and 7.5 pmonths. My older child is very mature and understands boundaries and directions. I’ll always gradually introduce her to your pet and only allow interaction if you’re comfortable with it. Otherwise, your pet can have plenty of quiet space downstairs with me. I also have safety gates on my stairs to help keep everyone safe and comfortable.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ pups of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve looked after everything from 14-week-old puppies to senior rescues. I’ve also worked with dogs who need medication, have special needs like blindness or anxiety, or just have tons of energy to burn. I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and personalized care — as if they were my own. As a full-time student with a light class schedule — just a few hours in the evenings Monday through Thursday — I’m available nearly all day, every day. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent care, timely check-ins, and plenty of attention for your pup throughout the day. When boarding dogs in my home, I provide a peaceful, dog-friendly space where your pup can relax and feel at ease. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that's perfect for regular walks and sniff breaks. I maintain a consistent routine, supervise playtime, and ensure your dog always has a cozy spot to rest — just like they would at home. Being welcomed into someone’s home to care for their pet is a responsibility I take seriously. I’m clean, respectful, and always follow care instructions closely. I create a calm, safe environment for each dog, keep communication open with regular updates, and do everything I can to make sure both you and your pup feel secure and supported.

About: I have taken care of all types of animals from dogs and cats to iguanas and everything in between! I got my first dog at 14 years old. Her name was pumpkin, she was a mutt. I taught her how to sit, roll over, shake, and much more. She was very well trained. I could let her walk with me with no lease she would stay by my side. I had her for almost 15 years. I currently have an Australian cattle dog/English coon hound mix, her name is Phoebe, she is 3 years old and has energy of a puppy! I am currently unemployed, so I will have plenty of time for walks or boarding or even house sitting. I'm looking to help families in anyway I can and enjoy the fun and loving animals. I have a 1.5 year old Australian cattle dog mix named phoebe. She is full of love and lots of energy! We play Frisbee all the time! I will show your animals the same love and attention I show my very own!

“Excellent pet sitter! She boarded our puppy for two nights and took great care of her. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. Great communication and a caring environment. Highly recommend!”
“I highly recommend Sonya and her family for pet sitting! I recently left my dog, Macario, with them while I was away camping for several days, and they took excellent care of him. It was clear from the updates and photos that he was comfortable, well-loved, and treated like part of the family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great stay. They were easy to communicate with, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure both Macario and I felt comfortable throughout the experience. As a dog mom, having peace of mind while you're away is priceless, and that's exactly what they provided. I'll definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Macario!”

“Katie and her family took wonderful care of our Samoyed, Teddy, while we were away for five days. He can be a handful at times, but Katie kept us updated with daily photos and messages that reassured us he was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend her and would gladly book with her again!”
“Our dogs have enjoyed every stay with Rachel and Katee! I like that they do an initial meet up with the pups before you stay and they send lots of pictures and updates to let you know your pups are doing well! Our dogs have stayed overnight twice now and it has been a great experience. They will continue to be our go to place to board our dogs. I highly recommend!”

“I can't say enough about how amazing Lauren was! From the moment I dropped off my pup, I knew he was in great hands. Not only did she provide lots of love and attention, but she also kept me updated with an adorable photo. The one picture she sent of my dog curled up and relaxed really put my mind at ease. I could tell felt completely comfortable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to their furry friend! Thank you, Lauren, for taking such great care of my dog!”
“Wonderful experience. They treated my babies like one of their own. They sent a bunch of pictures and provided updates regularly. I had no worries about my pups care, I knew they were in good hands. I would definitely book with them again.”
“As always Raina is the absolute best and Tater Tot always has a great time. She was also super accommodating when I mistakenly booked for the wrong date and was able to squeeze Tater in last minute.”
“Evan and Kaleigh are amazing! I was delayed on the drop off day. They were so patient and encouraged me to take my time getting there. We received pictures and updates throughout the duration of our vacation and were playing with the dogs when I picked them up. My pups were so well taken care of that they barely greeted me, which I took as a great sign! Thank you Evan and Kaleigh for giving us the peace of mind during our vacation!”
