“Anna was able to get my boy Timber in on short notice and he had a fun day getting tired playing with all the other pups (supervised 1 on 1 play). Convenient location, and good communication. Would call again if the need arose.”

“Amber is wonderful. She cares so much about my Dakota and she does a great job watching her! I am lucky to have found Amber and grateful that I can feel comfortable when my dog is with her.”

“Adriana was great! We had to book at the last minute because we were traveling through and accidentally booked a hotel that didn’t allow pets. She was very accommodating. She sent us lots of photos of our dog during his stay. He clearly felt very comfortable at her house based on the photos. She is very friendly and her own dog is so sweet. If we ever need a dogsitter when traveling through Scranton again, we will definitely use Adriana.”

“Adam was wonderful with Scout! I was a little nervous about boarding him since he usually stays with family, but Adam and his family truly made it feel like he was staying with relatives of his own. He sent regular updates and pictures throughout Scout's stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Every photo showed Scout looking happy, comfortable, and cozying up to everyone. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention and affection. When we picked Scout up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. Adam made it so easy to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing Scout was in great hands. We're incredibly grateful for the care he provided and would absolutely trust him with Scout again in the future!”

“My dog Jazzy loves Glenn! When I drop off my dog I know he is well taken care of!! Glenn takes care of his every need and I get notifications throughout the time he has Jazzy. Highly recommend!!”


“Laura watched our treeing walker coonhound while we went to Myrtle Beach for a long weekend. She sent regular pictures so we knew Copper was doing well and having fun! She was also very accommodating about drop off and pickup times, which was truly appreciated. Also, Copper is still young and can be quite a handful and she was patient and loving with him. I HIGHLY recommend Laura! Thank you!”
“This is the 3rd time we have left our pup with Debbie and Phil and I cannot speak highly enough of them and our experiences! They take such wonderful care of our dog and really treat her like their own. They give us piece of mind so we can enjoy our time away without worrying. They have wonderful communication and are very flexible. Would highly recommend!”

“We never have to worry when our Kal is with Jennifer! She takes great care of her, truly as if she is her own dog. Happy to be a repeat client! Would recommend to anyone ☺️”


“Karen and Donald are great. Griffey loves going there and playing with their boys, Wilbur and Edgar. They send us updates and pics of Griffey regularly! Another super satisfied repeat customer!”


“Fatima took care of our 75lb high energy Pitbull like it was her very own dog. We left for a vacation for 16 days and Fatima took over as both Mom and Pack Leader. She walked, fed, gave medication, cleaned ears, bathed, played with, etc. We got photos and vids daily, which gave us peace of mind that Leo was in great care. Highly Recommend!”

“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!”

“Jack and Joanne are the best! Our Brittany Spaniel had the best time at their home while we were away, and we felt relaxed knowing he was in such good hands. It can be hard to trust others with your fur babies, but with Jack and Joanne, we knew he was being loved and taken care of just as if he was home. We can not recommend them enough!”

“I was very nervous to leave my new puppy with a sitter for the first time, but they made it a seamless and stress free process. They are so kind and welcoming and sent so many updates and pictures! 11/10! Thank you again!”

“Chrisie was a huge help! She is so clearly a dog person that even our shy Doodle settled in at her home with her pack. She sent photo updates so we could rest assured, and was flexible with our traveling timing. We are so appreciative and will recommend her to anyone with a small dog.”

“Had Jennifer care for my cats the last 2 times we were away and she was great! My cats are very comfortable with her and enjoyed their time. It’s really reassuring to know that when I am away they receive excellent care. Thank you, Jennifer!!!”


“Gia was absolutely amazing! She cared for my two dogs over 3 days—17-year-old River, who is handicapped and in diapers, and 5-year-old Teddy, who’s very skittish—with incredible patience and love. She handled diaper changes with ease, gave Teddy the gentle attention he needed, and was always punctual. The thoughtful updates and sweet photos gave me total peace of mind. My dogs were happy, safe, and clearly loved her. I couldn’t have asked for better care. Truly five-star service!”

“I would rehire Adam for any Pet related service I need in the future. He took good care of my two cats, one with special needs. He followed directions and did what was asked of him and kept me updated. Couldn’t ask for anymore. thanks Adam. I’ll keep you in mind for the future.”

About: I’ve helped care for my family dog, Shadow, since he was a puppy, giving me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining a consistent routine. Spending so much time caring for him has taught me how important patience, reliability, and positive attention are for every dog. I truly love dogs and enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just wants some extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my own family and always provide the love, attention, and care they deserve. As a graduate student, my schedule gives me the flexibility to fit pet care into my day. Since moving into an apartment, I don’t get to spend as much time with dogs as I used to, so I’m excited for the opportunity to care for pets and make them part of my weekly routine. I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule, whether that means morning walks, afternoon visits, or evening check-ins. At this time, I’m unable to host pets in my apartment, so I focus on caring for dogs in their own homes and through walks. I’m happy to follow your house rules and your dog’s regular routine, whether that means specific walking routes, feeding schedules, potty breaks, or any other care instructions. For walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and safe, enjoyable time outside. During drop-in visits, I’ll provide fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of affection so your dog stays happy and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing dependable care that’s tailored to your dog’s needs.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ So grateful for the amazing care my pup has received! Thank you Bri for being so accommodating on short notice and for always responding so quickly. She made everything feel easy and stress-free. I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in loving, attentive hands. We truly appreciate you and will definitely be booking again!”

“We booked Kennedy for drop in visits for our two young cats. First time using this service, and we were very pleased! Kennedy took wonderful care of our kitties, sending photos and feeding and activity updates each day. She washed up pet dishes and even brought in our mail, going the extra mile and putting our minds at ease while we were away!”

“Jill was amazing! She was very thorough with ensuring she covered all of Izzy’s routine while she was here. She communicated with me the whole time and gave me updates. I also felt very comfortable having her stay at my home. We will definitely be using Jill again to care for our kitty!!”

About: Hi, I'm Missy! I've been caring for animals my entire life and owned my own pet-sitting business, Pet Sitting by Missy, since 2014. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and special needs. I have experience administering medications, caring for senior pets, and providing comfort to anxious animals. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, reliability, and dedication to treating every pet as if they were my own.

I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care, attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and strive to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, or overnight care, I make sure each pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and any special needs. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, companionship, and updates so owners can feel confident their pets are safe and well cared for while they are away. Safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention to pets' behavior, ensure doors and gates are secure, and make sure they are supervised appropriately. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.

“Anna was so great watching our two cats. Very communicative and went above and beyond to ensure my cats were comfortable. Will book with Anna every time we are out of town!”


About: I’ve loved and owned cats and dogs through every phase of my life, making animal care second nature to me. As an extremely empathetic and caring person, I treat every pet like family. I absolutely love snuggling kitties and promise to give your fur baby all the patience, warmth, and attention they deserve! I work from Monday to Thursday each week, so I'm available after 5pm on those days. On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I am always free to spend time with your furry friend. As a pregnant mom living in an apartment, I'm currently only available for walks and drop-in visits with cats and dogs (up to medium size). I'm also open to caring for small animals and exotic pets - feel free to message me and ask!

“Thank you so much Jessica for taking such amazing care of my babies. Your messages were so funny and well written. My trip was very peaceful and relaxing and all the more so because I had someone so caring it made me feel such peace of mind knowing someone like you was looking after my fur babies! I looked forward everyday to reading your daily updates in the notes on rover. I'm glad my cat Gizmo got the chance to boss somebody else around for a change lol.”

“Devaeh was super communicative, punctual, friendly, and most importantly, so sweet and kind to my babies. We booked with her after an injury sidelined me from being able to adequately care for my pups during the day, while my husband was at work. She was such a big help!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was eight. Not only my own personal pets, but also those of friends and family members. I do not currently have any pets, but I love animals, so this is my way to interact and spend time with them! I currently attend school, but my classes are spread out and only on certain days so I have plenty of time to take your dog on a nice, long walk. I'm really good as being able to tell if an animal is comfortable in a situation or not, so after our first walk, I can find the most enjoyable route for your dog!
“Andrew is the best! He was very attentive to our cats and send photos daily. We weren’t worried at all! Communication was wonderful and no issues at all. Would highly recommend him.”


About: Hi, I'm Kelly and am a big animal lover! Whether you're busy with work, school or just everyday life - It's tough leaving your pups home alone all day. I would love to help you out with your pets, so they can keep getting the love & attention they need :) From dogs, rabbits, reptiles & birds - I have grown up around animals my entire life! My husband & I currently have a 2-year old Golden Retriever named Abby, who we ADORE. I also have around 4 years of volunteer experience at our Luzerne County SPCA. I would help clean animal cages, play with or walk dogs to give them exercise, and help drive up dogs to monthly adoption events so we could help the available dogs find their fur-ever homes! Thanks to the SPCA, I also have received proper training on how to handle, walk & train dogs of many breeds & personalities. Feel free to reach out to me so your fur babies can get love, playtime & exercise while you're away! With Dog Walking, your dog will get a 30-minute walk around your neighborhood. I also offer Drop-In Visits, where I can stop by your home for 30 minutes to feed and play with your dog. I can give them medication as needed, with your direction. I'm currently working part-time and have the flexibility to help care for your pup and/or other pets in your home! We have one golden retriever in our own home who loves to play fetch outside and go on a 20-30 minute walk in the afternoon. I have a few years of experience volunteering at the SPCA, where I helped with dog walking. I am happy to help walk your pup or play outside in a fenced-in area.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats as pets, so have lifelong experience caring for animals. My family owned a small farm for a period of time, so I also gained experience with horses in addition to cats and dogs. We owned a German Shepard and a cockapoo, so I do have direct experience with both smaller and larger dogs. In high school, I took 4 years of animal science, which further advanced my knowledge of pets and gave me hands on experience in a pre-veterinarian science atmosphere. I plan on returning to school in the near future to further my studies in the animal sciences field and pursue a career as a Veterinarian Technician. I have had a life full of loving animals and live to care for them any way I can.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of having Christina take care of my two fur babies, Atlas and Arya, and I couldn't be more grateful for her exceptional service. This was the first time I've ever had someone watch over them, and naturally, I was quite nervous. However, Christina's professionalism and genuine care quickly put my mind at ease. From the moment we met, Christina was warm and attentive, immediately forming a bond with both Atlas and Arya. Throughout the day, she stayed in constant communication, sending me multiple updates and adorable pictures of my pets enjoying their time with her. These updates were invaluable in easing my anxiety, and it was clear from the photos that my pets were happy and comfortable. Christina's dedication and attention to detail were evident in every interaction. She followed all my instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to ensure that Atlas and Arya were well taken care of. Her thoughtful updates and consistent communication turned a potentially stressful situation into a very positive experience. I highly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. She truly understands the importance of trust and communication, and her love for animals shines through in everything she does. Thank you, Christina, for taking such wonderful care of Atlas and Arya and for making their first experience with a pet sitter so positive and enjoyable!”

About: Hi! I’m Bri, and I believe every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve someone who will love, respect, and care for them like family. 🐾 I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is to make both you and your furry family member feel completely comfortable from the very first meeting. Whether your pet is joining me for boarding, daycare, a walk, or a drop-in visit, they’ll receive the same love, patience, and individualized care I give my own dog. I proudly provide personalized pet care throughout the Back Mountain and Dallas area. Every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their personality, routine, favorite activities, and comfort level so they feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I especially enjoy caring for puppies and senior dogs, but I welcome dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, sniffing every tree in the neighborhood, or curling up for quiet cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to what makes them happiest. I’m Pet CPR certified and participate in ongoing Professional Pet Sitting education to stay current on pet safety, behavior, and best practices. Your pet’s well-being is always my highest priority, and you’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in loving, capable hands. When staying with me, your dog will enjoy a large fenced yard, daily exercise, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My sweet mini Labradoodle, Ellie, loves making new friends, and I also have separate rooms and crates available for pets who prefer a quieter environment or need their own space. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is seeing dogs remember me and run to the door excited for their next visit. Building lasting relationships with pets and the families who love them is the most rewarding part of what I do. To provide the highest level of care, I intentionally limit the number of pets I accept at one time. This allows me to give every guest the individualized attention, affection, exercise, and companionship they deserve instead of simply supervising multiple dogs. Whether you’re planning a vacation, need dependable daycare, regular walks, or drop-in visits while you’re away, I’d be honored to care for your best friend. Because to me, pets aren’t just clients—they become part of the family. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, companionship, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I welcome planned vacations, repeat local families, and long-term relationships with my clients. When availability allows, I’m also happy to accommodate occasional short-notice requests. I care with absolute passion.I have separate rooms for your pup/ cat and a large crate when needed. I have a fenced in yard for lots of room to roam and play. As well as a furry friend to play with Ellie my mini labordoodle.

“Fluffy had a wonderful time with Amber! It's not often that Fluffy has the opportunity to play with other dogs her size, so this was certainly a treat for her. Judging the by the pictures from her Rover card, it's evident that Fluffy was spoiled with attention and love during her stay. I will DEFINITELY be booking Amber again in the future and recommend all others to do the same!”

I love to play and cuddle with my dogs and would love the opportunity to have your love one stay with me in a loving home environment. I have watched the neighbors dog from time to time and had the care of my granddaughter who is a cat off and on for 2 years.

About: “From tail wags to soft purrs—and even tiny paws and eight legs—I love helping pets feel happy and cared for. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other pets, including ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, and even tarantulas. I’ve walked, bathed, and trained animals (including a dog that became a service animal), so I know patience, attention, and trust are key. Every pet in my care gets love, safety, and companionship, just like they’re part of my family.” My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m able to provide walks, playtime, or overnight care whenever your pet needs it.

About: Hi, I’m MJ, and dogs have been a part of my life since I was a little girl. I've cared for a variety of breeds and even some exotic animals, including a wild rabbit and an armadillo. I have a wealth of pet-sitting experience, and while living in the Lehigh Valley, I built a large clientele, earning 5-star reviews for the love and attention I gave to every pet in my care. My heart shattered when I lost Bella, my beloved 13-year-old Miniature Schnauzer, on 9/28/2024. Bella taught me more than I could ever imagine about caring for senior dogs. Through holistic methods and homemade nutrition, I extended her life and kept her healthy for 13 beautiful years. Bella needed special care, including gentle exercise, frequent bathroom breaks, a comfortable resting environment, and close monitoring of her health and behavior. I administered medications when necessary and worked hand-in-hand with her vet to ensure she had the best life possible. What sets me apart is the personal experience I gained from caring for Bella. I know how to tailor care for senior dogs, understanding the importance of mobility support, dietary restrictions, and health conditions. I always stay in close communication with pet owners to ensure I am meeting all of your dog’s specific needs. I pride myself on creating a safe, hazard-free, and chemical-free environment (aside from essential cleaning products in the bathroom and kitchen). Your dog will never come near harmful chemicals in my clean, cozy apartment, where they’re free to snuggle on the couch or bed. Also, I have plenty of experience feeding according to strict dietary instructions and administering oral medication as needed. Since Bella crossed the rainbow, my heart has been heavy, but the presence of other pets has helped me heal the sadness. I would love the opportunity to share my affection with your furry family member and care for them as if they were my own. Whether your dog is a playful puppy or a senior needing extra attention, I'll give them the same love and devotion I gave to Bella, with the hope that one day, I'll meet her again. We wanted to share a small update about our schedule. Recently, David’s work situation has changed, and he is no longer home full-time. While I still work outside the home and we continue to coordinate our part-time jobs on different days, there may now be occasional times when neither of us is home for short periods. That said, we’re always happy to talk through any questions you may have, and we’re committed to working with you to find a solution if needed. Pet care remains an important part of our daily routine, and your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness continue to be our top priority. We truly appreciate your trust and are excited to keep welcoming your pets as part of our family. In our home, we provide a cozy, safe, and loving environment for your dog. While we don’t have a yard, we live in a quiet apartment complex with plenty of green areas for walks and outdoor play. We enjoy strolling around the peaceful neighborhood, ensuring your dog gets the exercise and fresh air they need. Rest assured, we always keep dogs on a leash to maintain their safety, and we carefully monitor their surroundings to avoid any potential hazards. Inside our home, your pet will have access to all the comforts they deserve—whether it’s relaxing on the couch or snuggling up on the bed. We take extra care to create a stress-free, hazard-free space where your dog can feel at ease. Our goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and happy.

About: I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up there’s always been at least 1 dog and cat in our home. My fiancé and I currently have two pups of our own, including one with epilepsy, so I’m comfortable with medications, special care, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I’ve cared for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and my goal is always to become your pet’s new best friend (with plenty of treats, walks, belly rubs, and a few silly conversations along the way). I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! I work a hybrid schedule, so on the days my calendar shows I’m available, I’m working from home and have plenty of flexibility throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, meals, and lots of attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I treat them like they’re my own. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, so I try to keep their normal routine as much as possible — same feeding schedule, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. In my home, pets become part of the family! I have two pups of my own, so I understand the importance of making sure everyone feels comfortable, supervised, and included. I’m happy to provide a calm environment with lots of playtime, cuddles, and attention. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping things familiar and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely, keep your pets on their usual schedule, send updates and pictures, and make sure you come home to happy, well-cared-for pets.

“I requested an ASAP walk and Brittany was a complete lifesaver. She responded immediately, arrived right on time, and treated my dog like one of her own. I could tell from the photos and updates that my pup was happy, calm, and well cared for — exactly what you hope for when you’re in a pinch. She followed all instructions perfectly, gave thoughtful updates, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was secure before she left. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable, loving hands. If you ever need someone dependable at the last minute, Brittany is the person to book. I will absolutely be requesting her again!”

“Kim was amazing with Milkshake! Not only did she respond quickly, but she fit us into her busy schedule last minute. Kim was kind and took such good care of my pup.

I will be caretaking in the clients' homes.Whether I am house-sitting or pet-sitting, I can assure to follow requests, be invested in seamless check-ins, and be dedicated to taking them out to experience nature and fresh air. I'd like to give pets and owners a comfortable and stress-free environment.
“Adam provided an outstanding care to my dog. He also feeded him and followed all instructions. I had an emergency and as a last minute request he immediately responded. Adam was very friendly with my dog after checking camaras inside and outside my home.”

“Jared and Karen are excellent with Wally. Wally already loves them and looks forward to his daily walks. Both Jared and Karen are huge animal lovers and it shows. I feel very comfortable with them walking Wally because I know they take great care of him.”

About: “From tail wags to soft purrs—and even tiny paws and eight legs—I love helping pets feel happy and cared for. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other pets, including ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, and even tarantulas. I’ve walked, bathed, and trained animals (including a dog that became a service animal), so I know patience, attention, and trust are key. Every pet in my care gets love, safety, and companionship, just like they’re part of my family.” My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m able to provide walks, playtime, or overnight care whenever your pet needs it. I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve. “I deeply care for every pet in my care, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I keep their space clean, comfortable, and secure, and I pay close attention to their needs so they always feel nurtured and well-cared-for.”
About: I have health care experience from my daily career and I've been taking care of all kinds of pets since I was a little girl. This includes several kitten rescues and rehoming. My little girl abby was a recue. Feeding, grooming, litter care needs, emotional support, love, time, and attention all go towards my cat at home on a daily basis. It's a labor of love. I would approach each clients needs with focus on respect, reliability, attention to details, and loving care towards each clients pet. I understand each clients needs will be individual.
“We've got Kayla booked for a week of dog sitting. She came over to meet and walk my dogs prior to. The dogs liked her right away and my daughter as well. I think that says it all :-)”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages for over a decade. Relatives, friends and acquaintances have relied on me keep their pets safe and happy while they are away. I love animals and am passionate about giving your pet the best care possible. During the summer I am available to pet sit and dog walk anytime, my schedule is very open and flexible. A perfect fit for someone looking for a dog walker during the work day or a dog sitter while you are on vacation. When I pet sit we usually spend a lot of time playing and walking, or sometimes with senior dogs a lot of time just chilling out. I am capable of administering medication to older pups who take medication. It makes me happy to engage in activities my pets love like fetch, playing with toys, or just relaxing in each others company.
About: I’ve taken care of and loved dogs for as long as I can remember! My favorite part of the day is seeing their tail wag! I am currently working part time with a very flexible schedule! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I start and end my days by making sure pets are fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention. When at a clients home, I treat the space with respect and make sure to stick to the pets routine. I am willing to provide regular updates and pictures to make the owners feel as comfortable as possible!
About: I was raised around all kinds of animals, and have cared for cats, dogs, snakes, and rabbits. I love them all unconditionally and believe they should be raised to know full bellies, warm cozy nights, and endless love. I have experience working as a groomers assistant and a kennel attendant professionally for about 3 years as well, so I know how to handle special needs ranging from anxiety to aggression. I also understand what it's like to be tight on funds, and the need to budget tightly in order to properly care for your furry friends! If my Rover prices are too high for your budget, shoot me a message and I can help you stay in your range! I'm flexible, especially since all pets are different and require different amounts of work! I'm currently transitioning into working a typical full time job, so my once very wide open schedule has slimmed down a lot. I can best typically do check ins and walks in the early morning and in the evening. I'm assuming that I'll be doing a typical 9 to 5, so anything before 9am or after 5pm is within reach for me to make sure your pets are well cared for and loved while you're away. ❤️ You can reach out to me with any schedule questions and I can try to work something out with you! I always do my very best to be as gentle as possible with all pets! I tend to avoid using "alpha" proving tactics unless it is necessary for my or your pets safety (ex. scruffing, using chokers tightly, using the shock option over the buzz option on an electric collar). I see these options as only being necessary when the pet is acceptionally aggressive and may hurt myself, itself, or others. I'm also very cautious around doors as I know many pets would take the opportunity to bolt it into the street if they could. I can handle bruises and scratches well from excited pets! I'm usually always covered in them from my own fur babies.
About: I have taken care of dogs for about 2-3 years now. I have worked at animal shelters and now currently work at an emergency veterinary hospital, so I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds and cats. I have also been fostering and rescuing dogs for about 6 years now alongside my mother. I work full time, 3 days a week however, on my days off, I would be able to care for them at any hour needed. My mother and I have a fenced in yard and 6 small dogs of all ages for your dog to play or relax with. They would never be crated unless given instructions to do so and will be treated like a member of the household and given unconditional love and care.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the past year. I do have a full time job. I am available to do a quick lunch time walk (location is a factor for a lunch time walk) after 4pm M,T, Th,F. Sorry I’m not available on Wednesday’s I volunteer at a local animal rescue 😊 Saturdays and Sundays I am flexible I’d be happy to work with you regarding any specific safety needs for your pet(s)! I would go over everything with you at our meet and greet.
About: I work from home in a dog-friendly apartment complex with a flexible schedule so I am available all day to care for all your dog’s needs. I try to go for my own walks a few times per day so it would definitely be nice to have a little company. Located conveniently very close to the beautiful Schyulkill River Trail in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania and we also have a large fenced in dog park behind our apartment building as well. We have no other dogs in the apartment. I have a lifetime of experience of taking care of dogs at home but we have too hectic of a schedule to get one of our own. I’m very excited to be able to assist you and your dog.

“Anna was able to get my boy Timber in on short notice and he had a fun day getting tired playing with all the other pups (supervised 1 on 1 play). Convenient location, and good communication. Would call again if the need arose.”

“Adriana was great! We had to book at the last minute because we were traveling through and accidentally booked a hotel that didn’t allow pets. She was very accommodating. She sent us lots of photos of our dog during his stay. He clearly felt very comfortable at her house based on the photos. She is very friendly and her own dog is so sweet. If we ever need a dogsitter when traveling through Scranton again, we will definitely use Adriana.”

“Adam was wonderful with Scout! I was a little nervous about boarding him since he usually stays with family, but Adam and his family truly made it feel like he was staying with relatives of his own. He sent regular updates and pictures throughout Scout's stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Every photo showed Scout looking happy, comfortable, and cozying up to everyone. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention and affection. When we picked Scout up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. Adam made it so easy to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing Scout was in great hands. We're incredibly grateful for the care he provided and would absolutely trust him with Scout again in the future!”


“Laura watched our treeing walker coonhound while we went to Myrtle Beach for a long weekend. She sent regular pictures so we knew Copper was doing well and having fun! She was also very accommodating about drop off and pickup times, which was truly appreciated. Also, Copper is still young and can be quite a handful and she was patient and loving with him. I HIGHLY recommend Laura! Thank you!”
“We never have to worry when our Kal is with Jennifer! She takes great care of her, truly as if she is her own dog. Happy to be a repeat client! Would recommend to anyone ☺️”


“Fatima took care of our 75lb high energy Pitbull like it was her very own dog. We left for a vacation for 16 days and Fatima took over as both Mom and Pack Leader. She walked, fed, gave medication, cleaned ears, bathed, played with, etc. We got photos and vids daily, which gave us peace of mind that Leo was in great care. Highly Recommend!”

“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!”

“Jack and Joanne are the best! Our Brittany Spaniel had the best time at their home while we were away, and we felt relaxed knowing he was in such good hands. It can be hard to trust others with your fur babies, but with Jack and Joanne, we knew he was being loved and taken care of just as if he was home. We can not recommend them enough!”

“If I could give more than five stars, I would—honestly, this was one of the most above-and-beyond experiences we’ve ever had with any service, not just dog sitting. From the very beginning, she was kind, communicative, and incredibly professional—but what truly blew us away was everything that happened *after* we booked her for what was supposed to be just a single day. Due to unexpected circumstances on our end, that one day turned into three… and she handled it with nothing but grace, flexibility, and genuine care. Not once did she make us feel like it was an inconvenience. In fact, she reassured us the entire time and treated our dog like her own. She kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. You could tell our dog was not only well cared for, but truly happy and comfortable. It’s rare to find someone who connects so naturally with animals, but she absolutely does. And then—when we thought we couldn’t possibly be more impressed—she somehow raised the bar even higher. She went out of her way to return our dog to us, taking not one but TWO Ubers to make sure everything worked out smoothly. Who does that?! That level of dedication, effort, and positivity is almost unheard of. The entire time, she maintained the most amazing attitude—warm, patient, and completely unbothered—when most people would understandably be stressed or frustrated. It’s hard to put into words just how grateful we are. She didn’t just “watch our dog”—she showed kindness, flexibility, and a level of commitment that genuinely meant a lot to us during a stressful situation. If you are even *considering* booking with her, do it immediately. She is reliable, compassionate, communicative, and truly goes the extra mile (literally and figuratively). We would trust her again in a heartbeat and will absolutely be booking with her in the future. Thank you again for everything—you are truly one of a kind!”

About: Hello all, I've owned cats, dogs, and horses for over 20 years now and was their main caregiver starting at 8 y.o. I've worked at many horse barns and pet sitter for many many friends over the years. I have skills in pet healthcare (administering medication, baths, cutting nails, etc), young animals, dog & horse training, rescue animals, and elderly animals. I do my best to provide stress free care for your pets. I am currently working from home full-time! So there is always someone around to take care of your pet! My husband and I mostly like to relax and unwind at home with the occasional dinner date or movie, but are flexible and will be upfront with owners if their pet’s needs cannot be met! When pets are in my home, I always take note of the their state of wellness, looking for stress or anything out of the ordinary. I also will inspect the environment to ensure dangerous items (small items/chocolate/other) are out of reach. While we do not have a fenced in backyard we do have a lunge line that will allow your pet to enjoy running around in the backyard but provides a limit so pets do not go near the back alley road! I make sure pets have access to water at all times. I am able to administer medications easily whether it is as simple as pill pockets or even injections. We also have two dogs of our own as well as a cat! Geordi is a 10 year old Australian Cattle dog who is energetic but respects other pets space, Thor is a 1 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi who loves other playmates, and Wynnona is that our 4 year old cat who tends to mind her own business!
“My little guy has a new best friend in Patricia, her family and her pups! Our experience with rover and Patricia was even better than I could have imagined! Our dog was well cared for, happy, and felt at home. Rocky will definitely be back!”

“Lisa was great and took care of my pup! I had never left her for so long and it was comforting knowing she was in good hands. She sent updated throughout and I know she was well taken care of.”

About: Hi! I’m Julie. I grew up on a hobby farm surrounded by a menagerie of animals from a young age. Everything from chickens and goats to rabbits, cats, and dogs, and the occasional bit of wildlife, were welcome in my families home. As a high school student I became increasingly involved in agriculture and milked cows and cared for livestock. This turned into a love that led me to college in rural Maine where I earned a degree in Agriculture and Sustainability, all while working on a dairy farm each day. Currently, I homeschool my two children and am blessed with the ability to work from home. We live on a wooded property and have access to a small lake which is boarded by a wooded dirt road. Additionally, we have a small walking trail system directly on our property. We share our home with a Newfie doodle, Arlo, who is 1.5 years old, a Sulcuta tortoise, and a cat that lives under the bed. We have a large red deck with a fenced in space off of this for easy bathroom access and unleashed roaming space for your dog. I work from home and homeschool my children. Our days have built in flexibility and can be arranged to accommodate the needs of any pet staying with us. We enjoy time outdoors, and can often be found working remotely or “out schooling” from our backyard or a hiking trail. In our home, the pets are people too (and we will narrate their thoughts based on their expressions 🤪). Pets are allowed on the furniture and in all rooms. We have a large front porch for slow mornings and evenings that stretch well past sunset. We also have a large deck in the rear which has a fenced area off of it to allow plenty of space for unattended bathroom breaks or unleashed space to roam. My children are well versed in animal care and also understand giving space to a new animal, calm energy, etc. I will always setup a meet and greet prior to booking to ensure everyone feels comfortable and welcome. Medications can be distributed, and special diets can be managed.
“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!”
