Personalized care for your dog or cat - Coalmont

“Wish I could give more than 5 stars! It was our first time using Rover for our 9 month old pup and Michael and Melanie completely exceeded expectations. Walks, hikes, pictures, and so much love! They truly made our pup apart of their family. We couldn’t thank them enough. Also want to mention their sweet, patient lab Mojo for being so good to our pup. If you’re looking for the best care for your pup, look no further!”

Lexi V.

“This was my first time using the app, and it was a bit of a last-minute booking. We have a large puppy, so I was nervous about how he would do without us. Mariah made me feel completely reassured that he was in great hands. He came home tired—I could tell he was well loved and played with a ton, judging by his long nap afterwards. I’m so appreciative of knowing our big baby was in great care while we were out of state.”

Aly S.

“My dogs had a great time with Michelle and her family! I received lots of photos and updates. Even my super nervous girl was settling into her home just fine♥️”

“Amber and her family are such wonderful people. My boy Kane is perfectly happy and I am confident he is well cared for. They are highly recommended and we are repeat clients.”

Carol R.

“Allie came thru when I needed her most. Flight delays made it impossible to be home in time to pick up my pup. Allie graciously agreed to keep Sami another day. So grateful that Allie was able to help make this uncontrollable situation manageable.”

“Ashauna was the best dog sitter! She took such great care of our dog, and kept us updated all the time, and sent multiple pictures daily. I never worried once about him, because I knew he was in such good hands. She truly has a love for dogs and all animals. If you want someone you can trust with your pet that you love, please don’t hesitate to contact Ashauna, because she will treat your pet like he/she was her own, and give him/her plenty of love, affection, exercise, and care. She was in one word - awesome! And I would not hesitate to have her watch our dog again. N. Wesner”

About: I have been taking care of fur babies for well over a decade. I used to be a full time dog walker/house sitter until I went into healthcare. Whether your pet has many needs or just likes to chill out, I’m more than happy to help. As a pet owner myself, I know that animals are not just pets... they’re a part of the family and I treat them so. Please do not hesitate to ask about my experience or any other questions you may have. I have a full time job in healthcare and am usually off Friday to Sunday while the other days vary a little bit. I update my availability regularly. I have two dogs who are friendly and love to play. They interact with big and small dogs well. As far dog walking and visits, I treat your place like my own. I’ll tidy up after myself and let you know how my visit went :)

About: I used to run my own successful pet sitting business out of the Hollidaysburg veterinary clinic with the help of Dr. Kendra. I had many happy, recurring clients and really enjoyed working with local families and their pets. I have experience working with all types and sizes of animals (as well as personalities). I currently own 3 German Shepherds, 3 cats and 3 parrots. I look forward to meeting your family and fur babies! I currently work full time but I’m available anytime time on my off days and both before and after work on any other day. I can stay overnight at your home or stop in through the day, depending on your needs. I’m also available for dog walking or other care services such as bathing. I am available for overnight and drop in services as well as pet care services such as walking and bathing.

I believe in utilizing all of the space available to provide the most optimal experience for the pet and for the family returning back home

About: I’m a loving pet sitter who is ready to walk the walks and bark the barks. No dog too big or too small. No pooch too young or too old. Pets are a daily important part of my everyday schedule. I have taken care of animals for over 21 years and excited to become apart of your pets lives as well I have a super sweet, very friendly dog and he can will happily stay in our big beautiful sunroom if he makes your baby uncomfortable

About: I have cared for many different types of animals since I was a child. Dogs, cats, bunnies, rats and hamsters. Fostered and lived with many dogs. I currently have dogs and cats. They are the joy of my life especially since the kids (and grand dogs) have grown and moved. Couldn’t imagine life without them. I have two dogs and 2 cats to keep the fur guests company. Lots of play time in the fenced back yard. And snuggles on the couch.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. Anywhere from small, medium, to large dogs. I’ve had mini dachshunds, Dalmatians, St. Bernards, and German Shepherds. Currently right now I have a 3 Golden Retrievers named Willie, Waylon, and Hank. I also have a cat named Cash! I current work full time Monday-Thursday. I can be available later evenings if needed, we would just have to work things out in advance. I am generally free Friday-Sunday for any needs as well but also with notice. We have a 2 acre yard that my pups are free to roam via a underground fence. But we also have a lead for my moms dogs when she brings them over to play. We have a big house with a good sized living room and kitchen where all of my pups play as well when we have to be inside.

“Diesel had a great getting to play with David's two Shepards and a Burmese Mountain dog. He was very easy to communicate with and took awesome care of my pup. Will definitely use again in the future.”

Michelle B.

About: I've walked dogs, as well as watched them while the owners were away since I was little. I don't currently own any larger animals, but I have always handled them. Any dog wouldn't be an issue I currently could fill pretty much any need! I have a few hours of every day that I am busy, but I can be available pretty much anytime! I have an unfenced in yard that I would keep the dog leashed within, but I also know many of the dog friendly hiking trails within the Altoona area. I would be will to do whatever your most comfortable with!

“Alexis was very nice & reliable. She took care of our dog for a week.”

Christine & Patrick B.

About: I’ve been a life time animal lover! I grew up with two dogs, a German Shepherd and a Westie. I currently live on a 300 acre farm with 9 cats. We have a guest house where I will board your pet, so no need to worry about any interaction with my current pets. I can offer a relaxing atmosphere and all day care on weekends along with morning and afternoon care on week days. I can also board or do drop-in visits for fish, hamsters, or horses. Your dog will love a relaxing mountain retreat! Your cat can enjoy a quiet vacation! I work full time as a teacher. I can board your pet all weekends or in the afternoons. I can take crate trained dogs anytime during the week but could only provide potty breaks every 6-8 hours. I am available for dog walks or drop-in visits any day in the afternoon or evening in the Chambersburg, Gettysburg, and Hagerstown areas. Your pet would live only with me in a private guest house. We have 300 acres to go for walks or chase balls! My husband and 9 cats live in the main house. Our cats don’t mind other animals but I can keep your pet away from the cats if you prefer. As a 15 year high school teacher, I am very trustworthy, authentic, and kind. I admit to being a bit of a “crazy animal person” as I try to pet every animal I see! I can be trusted with your animal for an extended time or just an afternoon walk! I can also board hamsters or horses.

“Chelsea is awesome!! I will definitely have her watch my cat for my next vacation! Very happy with her communication and updates throughout.”

Linzi B.

About: I have had pets my entire life! My family adopted a Terrier-Maltese mix from the Central PA Human society when I was in elementary school and we also had a lab growing up. Currently my wife and I have three Yorkies and a cat. We also used to foster Yorkies through “Save a Yorkie” rescue where we ended up adopting one of our pups! I typically travel for my full-time job on Mondays and Tuesdays, although I typically have mornings and evenings available. I am almost always in the area for the remainder of the week. When dog sitting for friends I always try to spend as much time with their pups as possible so that they are not lonely. I enjoy playing with and walking dogs the most!

About: With having a profession in animal care and living with dogs and cats my entire life, I have lots of experience taking care of pets. I, regularly, handle very friendly and very unfriendly/anti-social dogs and cats, which is very fun for me! I work full-time taking care of animals, but will be available after hours for at least a few hours most days and have most of Friday and Saturday available. I do not offer services in my own home, but I am able to offer every service in yours. I can walk, play with, and just interact with your animals in whatever way you need and if they do not socialize in those types of ways, that's alright too!

About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as I can, just comes second nature for me! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having! I’m hoping to make Rover a full-time career! That’s how much I love animals! I’m very flexible with all your pet caring needs so if there’s anything I can help with, please let me know! Although I'm unable to watch your pups at my home, I'll make sure they're safe at yours! I make sure I understand the pups needs, routine, and any specific care instructions provided by you, the owner. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring their environment is safe and clean, exercising them, and administering medications or treatments if required.

“Watson had a great experience with Mike and his crew. I was looking for a sitter to keep watch of Watson for an afternoon while I explored the mountain bike trails at Raystown lake. Mike lives super super close to the trailhead so that was very convenient. He took great care of Watson giving him multiple walks and kept me informed with regular updates. Will definitely be reaching out to Mike next time I am back to the area.”

Paul P.

About: I have taken care of a reactive dog for 2 years and have been dog sitting since age 12. I have loved every minute of it and cannot wait for more opportunities to do so! I work from home 7am-3pm every day. My house is spacious and comfortable. Working from home every day allows me to have free time to let the special pup I luckily get to watch out into the yard to play and give them the attention they need whenever they need it. I have all the necessities for pet care at my own home such as a bissell pet vacuum for messes, dog bowls, a sand box for digging, treats… etc. I have a large yard and a deck behind the house so they can have ample outdoor time.

“Suzanne and her family were absolutely wonderful for my dog, Toast! They were super accommodating and I would definitely let them watch Toast again! Toast had a great time and I felt completely comfortable leaving her with Suzanne for the day! :)”

Parks are close by and I have a dog myself who can keep others company and make them feel more comfortable.
