“Adriana was fantastic! Her home is a perfect setup. She has multiple spaces for the dogs inside and out. She is also a very good communicator. Sent lots of pictures and video every day! My dog Rocky was cared for like he was her own. Thank you!”
“Carissa was a great sitter for Lennox - he seems to have enjoyed her care and the company of her pet, Judge. He came back happy! During his stay with her, Carissa kept in touch with me with appropriate updates, including photos and a few short videos. She was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which was great because my return home was delayed a little bit with traffic. I’d recommend her for sure and already booked Lennox for another stay with her in a few weeks!”
“Joelene is great. Our Boxer Frannie was staying with her during an awful heat wave and I trusted Joelene would keep her safe and cool! As a bonus she’s always quite tired when she gets home so I know she’s had a lot of interaction and play!”
“Bee was a very nice and welcoming dog sitter! She has a very friendly dog, a huge beautiful yard and home that was perfect for my Mastiff to play in. She took notes on my feeding routines, sent pics during the stay and responds quickly to messages for any questions or concerns. She has a great connection with dogs that made my dog feel right at home and I'd definitely use her service in the future.”
“Chester was great. He sent us many pictures and videos of our puppy. He had a great play area setup. We felt like our dog was in great hands. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking or a reliable dog sitter!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog overnight and Kerri made me feel so at ease! She was very responsive and sent plenty of updates. Kobe had such a good stay and enjoyed spending the night with her and her family! I will definitely use her again!”

“I cant say enough about Sairy. To see how much my dog loves her time there makes my Heart happy. She sends me videos and pictures keeping me engaged with her daily activities. She is forever Remy's keeper when I need her in the future. She luvs luvs luvs her Aunt Sairy. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Jamie was great with our 2 dogs--we will definitely be repeat customers! We got updates, and pictures so we knew they were having a good time. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands.”
“Tara is great! She is very kind and easy to communicate with. My dog is a clingy and nervous chihuahua, and he felt very comfortable with Tara. She did a great job making him feel relaxed while sharing pictures with me while I was away. I appreciate her dedication and patience for making my dog, and myself, feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while I was out of town. Thank you Tara!”
“Kaitlyn was very nice to work with. Maddie had a good stay and I felt very comfortable leaving her there. Kaitlyn kept us updated on how Maddie was doing and even sent pictures. I will definitely use Kaitlyn again to watch Maddie.”
“Wonderful experience with Emily and Andre. They took such great care of our two babies while we were out of town. They sent updates and pictures every day, and really went above and beyond. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets and have experience with special needs animals, seniors and kittens/puppies. I can administer medicine and am very cognizant of a pet’s personality. For example I have a timid cat, a menace cat and a love bug cat. My Siberian husky is more cat than dog too. I can do drop ins or board dogs in my home. I can also stop by for walks. For the board ins I prefer to take in only dogs because I don’t want to stress the kitty crew out, but I’d be available to come do drop ins for the cats. My yard isn’t completely fenced so I’d probably take the doggos to the park at apple grove and for walks around town. I have three friendly cats and my husky also loves dogs.
“Mary did a great job. She sent us regular pictures and kept our energetic dog active and entertained. We picked our dog up much later in the day than we thought but Mary was very flexible w our schedule and stayed up till we arrived. I'd say she went above and beyond to take care of our pooch!”

About: Hello! My name is Baylor, and I've been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with both dogs and cats. For the past four years, I've worked as a veterinary technician, giving me extensive experience caring for animals and ensuring they stay happy, healthy, and safe. My veterinary background allows me to confidently administer medications, recognize changes in behavior, and provide attentive care for pets with special needs. In addition to my clinical experience, I've been pet sitting for many of my veterinary clients over the past few years. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am currently taking care of pets as my full-time job, allowing me to be very available and have widespread flexibility to fit your scheduling needs. I am able to care for your dog or cat in whichever way feels most comfortable for you, whether that is a puppy who needs training, walks, and crated time, or a senior cat that requires more frequent, attentive visits and a strict schedule of medication. Given my background, I am also happy to provide additional services such as baths, nail trimmings, and gland expressions when necessary.
“Amber was excellent, excellent, excellent! She was on time morning and evening giving our cat his food and insulin injections. She communicated with us frequently complete with photos. I highly recommend Amber.”
“Darcy was outstanding. She was great with the dogs, sent lots of pictures, even offered to stop by extra if the dogs were afraid of thunderstorms. She communicated promptly and was willing to bring in the mail for us. I can certainly recommend her, and will contact her again should the need arise. Thank you, Darcy.”
“Colleen checked in on my cats while I was out of town. She refilled food and water supply, and changed the waste bin for the automated litter box. She gave me photo updates of my cats greeting her at the door. I appreciated her services and would book again for whenever I am out of town.”
“Brittney was truly the best!!! She kept us updated every day, multiple times a day, with pictures and messages about our 3 kitties. She went above and beyond for us and put our mind at ease while we were away for the weekend. We couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Lori is a great sitter. Gracie (the cat) pulled her antics as normal and Lori was concerned with her well being. Thank you for the great overall concern and the cute pictures she took. Lori is in my book for future bookings. Thank you again!”
“Nate took good care of my 2 senior cats while I was away on vacation. He did daily drop in visits, litter box, fed/watered, gave 1 daily medication, and spent time with them. He also sent pics and gave me updates. My house was clean when I got home. Nate was prompt to respond on the site, we met in advance at a public eatery to get to know each other, and he came to my house after to meet my cats and get a basic run down on their needs. He was very pleasant, easy to talk to, and my cats took an instant liking to him. I would highly recommend him to others and will hire him again in the future! It's so hard to find good, reliable yet reasonable pet care. Thank you so much Nate!!!”
About: Hi, Everyone! My name is Cara. Thank you for visiting my page. My strong admiration for animals has only grown more with the more animals I meet and as a result, it brings me genuine happiness. It is a rewarding experience to be able to take care of any animal that needs it while their owner is away. Since starting Rover in August 21’, I’ve had 10+ repeat clients and have established great friendships with families/people in the community as a result. I have a M-F teaching position 8am-4pm and summer months off. I am currently a part time Binghamton University graduate student studying for a masters degree in early childhood special education. A little history: I grew up with a miniature schnauzer (Zoie) whom towards the end of her life, needed constant supervision and was administered medicine 3x/ day, grooming/washing daily. I was always there to comfort her until the end of her life and spoiled her beyond belief. Myself and my family provided care to my mini schnauzer for over 12 years. As a child, I never had a dog sitter to send updates, pictures/videos for my sweet Zoie when my family would travel, so I strongly understand the importance of quick and reliable communication/sending updates while you’re away to ease your anxiety. Experience - administering medicine/injections - cats, big dogs, small dogs, senior animals, special needs pets, pigs, cows, chickens. -exercise/run with your pet -hospice/end of life care (Repositioning every hour, hand feeding, massages, cooking packs, frozen bone broth snacks on warmer days, the list goes on) Pets and animals deserve to be spoiled but most importantly, they deserve to be loved. I have a white pitbull fur baby (Minnie). Shes a loyal, sweet and well behaved dog, I’m so lucky and thankful for her every day as she brings me so much happiness. She stays at home with her other best friend, my significant other while I’m away. If you think I’d be a good fit for your fur baby or have any questions or concerns, I’m here to answer them all and hope you will consider me to take care of your pet. I work M-F through a nearby school, being able to provide supervision to animals while I am home. Check my calendar for the most up to date availability, please 😌 House sitting: Provide overnight care, 24/7 care, other responsibilities to care for your home while you are away (watering plants, picking up mail, cleaning, etc.) Always love to send picture and video updates 2-3x/a day of your furry one to ensure you are comfortable and know that your animal is well cared for and happy in my care!

“Aurora had a lovely retreat in the country with Amber in a beautiful setting with plenty of care and cuddles. I immediately felt comfortable with Aurora spending the day with Amber who is warm, friendly and clearly has a special way with animals. She kept me posted on Aurora’s adventures throughout the day. Hope Aurora has a chance to visit again!”
“Allawr took great care of our dog aura during a two night stay at her home. Allawr gave us plenty of updates, pictures, and was quick with communication. Aura made friends with her sweet pup, mellow, and did not want to leave. We definitely recommend Allawr for dog sitting!”
About: I have been a pet owner for 30+ years (currently own no pets) and a pet sitter from the 80's and 90's when it was new to have someone in your house taking care of pets while traveling. I am new to Wayne County, after living in Delaware County, PA for 50 years. I am looking for a part time work from home job, but in the meantime thought I could fill my days with dog lovin. I miss having my own pet, so loving and caring for others would be a great fit. My home is spacious, with plenty of room to play, sleep and be crated (if necessary). I live on 2 acres, with access to 10k+ acres of woods out my back door. There is plenty of walking and exploring to do out my back door.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds both small and large and everything in between. Over the years, I’ve learned that every breed and every individual dog has its own personality, energy level and unique needs. I take the time to understand each dog’s communication style so they feel comfortable, safe and loved while in my care. Dogs are truly my favorite thing in the world, and I treat every one as if they were my own. Your pup will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and personalized care. My home is a safe, dog-friendly environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. My 2 French Bulldogs love having canine visitors and can provide companionship and play if your dog enjoys being around other dogs. I’m home throughout the weekends and pride myself on being dependable, whether you need care planned in advance or have a last-minute schedule change or emergency. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your dog is happy, safe, and cared for like family. Although my Rover profile is new, my experience with dogs is not. As a Rover customer myself, I realized there was a real need for reliable, loving pet sitters in our area. After seeing how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, I decided to become a caregiver myself. I am home all weekends so your pup will fit right into our crew and enjoy the weekends being well cared for. We will have plenty of play and plenty of naps. I have a secured fenced yard and 2 pups to keep yours company or if your pup is crate trained I can accommodate whatever their needs are.
“Kathryn was great. This was the first time leaving our pittie with a stranger, and we were very pleased with the way everything was handled. Kathryn met our expectations, and we look forward to working with her in the near future.”
“Honestly I don't think I could find a better person to care for my baby when we aren't home. Serena seemed to have a good time and was able to relax and not be nervous. She even ate some dinner (which she usually doesn't when we aren't around).”
“Tara was amazing with our sweet girl Piper! She kept us updated and sent pictures and updates throughout Friday and Saturday. We could not be more pleased! Piper loved her and we will not hesitate to book her again!! 🐶♥️🐾”
About: As a dedicated pet sitter with a special love for large breed dogs, I bring both experience and confidence to every stay. Whether it’s a gentle giant or a high energy powerhouse, I understand the unique needs of big dogs from exercise and structure to affection and safety. Your pup will enjoy personalized care, plenty of playtime, and a calm, secure environment while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm I prioritize structure, attention, and affection in every interaction. I schedule walks, feeding, and playtime around my work from home flexibility, which allows me to give dogs consistent companionship and supervision. For large breeds especially, I make sure they get the exercise and calm leadership they need to thrive. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening wind downs, caring for dogs isn’t just a task it’s a lifestyle I genuinely enjoy. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, structure, and comfort tailored to each dog’s personality and needs. In my home, large breeds enjoy a spacious, secure environment with plenty of room to stretch out, daily walks, and calm leadership. When staying in a client’s home, I maintain their routines feeding schedules, exercise habits, and preferred commands to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I treat every dog like family, with a balance of affection and attentive care that keeps tails wagging and owners at ease.

Your dog will be lovingly cared for and closely supervised on our peaceful 8-acre property, complete with a beautiful creek and plenty of space to explore.

“Kerri was great with our little guy! She sent a lot of pictures for the short few hours that we needed her to watch him and we could tell that he was happy and having the time of his life! I highly recommend Kerri, and we will definitely book her again if we are ever in the area”

About: While I'm more experienced with cats in my home, I have always been the go-to pet sitter for all friends and family. I appreciate that they get just as excited to go for a w-a-l-k as I do. It helps that my schedule is extremely flexible since I'm a bartender who works odd hours. I can do early mornings, late nights, and a mix of anything you need in between. I'm a bartender, so I am available early mornings, late nights, and a good mix of anything in between. The bar I work at is also closed on Sundays and Mondays, so scheduling on those days is completely flexible. My cats are fairly active, so we spend quite a bit of time playing fetch or hide and seek (cats are so odd). I also take them on bike rides with my bike trailer attachment. I'm also equipped to handle medication needs. I don't crate my cats when I'm not home, so that would have to be provided by the client if there is a requirement for one.

Full-Time, Experienced Dog Caregiver | Safe, Loving Home with Built-In Playmates About Me: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s my full-time job and my passion. I provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care for every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup needs structured routines, playtime, or just a calm and safe place to relax, I’m here to make them feel right at home. My home is already built around dogs, creating a comfortable environment with plenty of supervision, affection, and positive interaction throughout the day. A typical day includes walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and supervised potty breaks. Our partially fenced yard and dog door give safe 24/7 potty access. Every schedule is customized to your dog’s personality, energy level, and needs, so they feel happy, safe, and loved. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, structured, and loving environment where every pup feels at home. Your pup will be part of our family routine alongside our girls: Sylvanas and Kaiya. Both are well-socialized, friendly with people and other dogs, and help create a welcoming, balanced environment for visiting pups. With full-time care, we can give attentive supervision, love, and companionship all day. I’m also experienced in administering medication, following dietary instructions, and providing enrichment activities to keep your dog happy, healthy, and engaged. Your dog will enjoy a safe, fun, and nurturing home where they are treated like part of the family while you’re away.

“Jamie was great with our 2 dogs--we will definitely be repeat customers! We got updates, and pictures so we knew they were having a good time. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands.”
“Kaitlyn was very nice to work with. Maddie had a good stay and I felt very comfortable leaving her there. Kaitlyn kept us updated on how Maddie was doing and even sent pictures. I will definitely use Kaitlyn again to watch Maddie.”
“Wonderful experience with Emily and Andre. They took such great care of our two babies while we were out of town. They sent updates and pictures every day, and really went above and beyond. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets and have experience with special needs animals, seniors and kittens/puppies. I can administer medicine and am very cognizant of a pet’s personality. For example I have a timid cat, a menace cat and a love bug cat. My Siberian husky is more cat than dog too. I can do drop ins or board dogs in my home. I can also stop by for walks. For the board ins I prefer to take in only dogs because I don’t want to stress the kitty crew out, but I’d be available to come do drop ins for the cats. My yard isn’t completely fenced so I’d probably take the doggos to the park at apple grove and for walks around town. I have three friendly cats and my husky also loves dogs.
“Mary did a great job. She sent us regular pictures and kept our energetic dog active and entertained. We picked our dog up much later in the day than we thought but Mary was very flexible w our schedule and stayed up till we arrived. I'd say she went above and beyond to take care of our pooch!”
About: I have been a pet owner for 30+ years (currently own no pets) and a pet sitter from the 80's and 90's when it was new to have someone in your house taking care of pets while traveling. I am new to Wayne County, after living in Delaware County, PA for 50 years. I am looking for a part time work from home job, but in the meantime thought I could fill my days with dog lovin. I miss having my own pet, so loving and caring for others would be a great fit. My home is spacious, with plenty of room to play, sleep and be crated (if necessary). I live on 2 acres, with access to 10k+ acres of woods out my back door. There is plenty of walking and exploring to do out my back door.
About: I truly love animals and treat every pet like part of the family. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter and have cared for dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, reptiles, bunnies, and pets that require medication. Since I work remotely, I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’ll send you as many pics as you’d like :) Since I work remotely, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Walks are already a regular part of my schedule, and I’m available throughout the day for feeding, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions. Whether they’re in my home or theirs, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, with plenty of attention and updates for their owner!
About: Hi! My name is Brooklin, and animals have been a huge part of my life for over 18 years. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I previously worked with the Charleston Animal Society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs. My background has given me the skills to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while you're away. I am comfortable administering medications when needed and have experience monitoring pets' health, feeding schedules, water intake, bathroom habits, and overall well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I strive to make them feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My goal is to treat every animal as if they were my own and provide pet parents with peace of mind through dependable care and communication. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! At the moment I have a full time job, but have weekends off. I plan to entail doing this on my weekends and even after work days. This is more then just making it my routine. I adore animal(s). I have a fenced in yard, I as well have a crate. Plenty of opportunities for walking adventures. I enjoy going to the dog park, as well with adventuring outside anywhere with the animal(s). Whatever you set for rules or boundaries I’ll always continue to respect them, and always follow. I enjoy working with animal(s)
