“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I don't have much experience with dog care. My family briefly had a dog or two when we lived in Trinidad and Tobago for about 2 years. And my oldest brother briefly lived with a Husky. I've been surrounded by cats most of my life since I was about 15 years old and now I'm 42 years old. I plan on being the sole pet caregiver in my household for your pet(s) and I will treat your pet or dog like an extended part of the family. Whatever rules you wish for me to follow with your pet or dog I will follow and respect them. I have a deep compassion for animals and will treat your pet or dog with love and care. I'm currently a part-time home health aide or caregiver for my Autistic 14 year old son which takes place at our home. I have a family of 5 including three kids and I'm looking for a way to make extra income. We live with 4 cats who spend most of their time outdoors. We have a fenced up yard with plenty of room for your pet(s) to roam around in and play.
“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!”
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!
“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 ☺️”

“Vivienne was wonderful and my cats absolutely loved her. She was respectful of our property and kept me up to date on all of her visits. I'll be reaching out to her in the future for any of my pet sitting needs and I would recommend that you do as well.”
“Eileen was great! She took care of my kitten (Charlie) for 20 days and updated me with pictures and information about him throughout his stay with her. At first she was slow to respond to my messages before taking Charlie in but was great during his stay. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I was the little kid that visited the neighbors just to see their dogs. I have dog sat on many occasions. I am very detail oriented and love abiding by schedules. I do not mind the size of the dog either. The more dogs you have the better. I will gladly meet the dog(s) beforehand to see if they are comfortable with me. Other pets are also welcome too! The most animals I have watched at one time was three dogs and one cat. I am not opposed to light cleaning for the animals when necessary. Any routines you have for feeding or walking will always be followed. If you have any questions please ask me. I look forward to meeting your pets!

“my dog stayed with Patti for one week while we were overseas on vacation. Patti sent pictures and videos each day to me and I could see that Milo was being taken good care of and seemed happy at all times. Patti has 3 dogs already in her house that all had good personalities that automatically got on well with Milo. I felt really comfortable and happy that Milo stayed with Patti.

“Kora was very patient with my super shy cat and took very good care of her. My husband and I visited Wilkes-Barre and inherited the cat.

“We had a great experience with our pup Precious staying with Danielle. Her lovely place was very pet friendly. The location was very convenient for our day trip to Camelback Mountain.”
“Our dog had a great time at Adriana's. Between pictures and updates we could see he had a lot of fun with other dogs, including her dog Milo, who is super friendly and playful. The nice backyard set up she has for them to play around and constant supervision made Zync's stay pleasant.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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, 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!

About: Peace of mind pet care! Hi there! I'm Noelle! I'm a 35 year old animal enthusiast. I have years of personal experience being a dog and cat guardian. I have also worked with animals in a retail setting and a shelter setting. I bring to the table knowledge of pet behavior, basic care, food, toys, treats, health and wellness products, accessories, and more (a little of everything). I believe all pets are family members and will treat them as though they were my own. I will try my best to accommodate any special needs or requests you may have. I'm always receptive to questions or concerns so feel free to ask! I'm trying to earn money to help support my furry family by spending some time with yours! I look forward to making some new fur friends! Please allow enough time before your furbaby is under my care for a Meet and Greet. I will not accept service requests without a proper meeting! I want to confirm your baby, my babies, and myself will be safe and comfortable during our interactions! Don't hesitate to ask me questions if your booking falls outside my normal availability. I will do my best to make your needs work with my schedule! Currently trying to make this my main kibbles and bits! I'll consider any request and try to make it work! I take clients on weekdays and am NOT an early riser! Afternoons and evenings are perfect! I am hypervigilant with my own furbabies and will be with yours as well! Potty time will always be supervised (if you have a fence) and a leash is a must for walks! I will stay by their side the whole visit!
About: I’ve always grew up taking care of our family dogs. Friends, bosses, and family have always trusted me with their pets to walk them, feed them & just hang around with them for hours giving them love and attention. I am currently unemployed so I have a lot of time on my hands right now, plus I have a strong love for dogs and animals in general so why not spend my time with something that makes me happy and that I enjoy doing! My fiancé & I have a passion for fur babies, we live in a smaller condo but the neighborhood is dog friendly with plenty of walking trails to take your pup on a nice stroll, so chances are your dog will make new friends and lots of love & attention from us and neighbors!
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 connect with dogs just like people. I'm loving and caring. I grew up caring for my pets and family friends pets. So I know how to walk, feed and clean after pets. I work full time but get off early so I am available after 130pm. Weekends I will determine at the time of booking. I normally rest on weekends but would consider work if I am free. I will make sure your pet is safe while in my care. I will follow directions that are given to me by owners. Feeding and daily care are not a problem and play time is the best.
About: Hello! My name is Rachel and I’m 32. I am a real estate agent and also a bartender so I have a lot of flexibility during the week in the daytime. I love to get out and take some time to go for walks. Hoping to be a great help to someone needing the extra hand getting their fur babies out for walks whenever they may need. I just love animals and always treat them with all the love. Thanks for reading about me. Hope to meet your fur babies soon ! I am working part-time so I have plenty of time for daily or weekly walks. Only day that doesn’t work for me right now is Saturdays. I have an Australian shepherd with a lot of energy and specific needs for walking and hiking, so I am very understanding of all pets having different needs for walks and keeping them safe.
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.

“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
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!
“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 ☺️”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Right from the start, Kerri was so great to us. She came over to meet our dog beforehand and sent us messages with pictures while we were away. She really put us at ease, and we appreciate that so much. We recommend her 100%.”
“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.”
