“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Brooke and Jeremy were excellent hosts! It was nice receiving updates and pictures during our dogs stay and by the looks of it he had a great time! We would highly recommend them and would certainly use again!”
“Jennifer was so understanding, kind, and compassionate with my anxious senior dog. I used her for an overnight visit and my quickly felt comfortable at her home. I highly recommend her and hope to use her services again!”
“CoCo stayed over for 4 nights and there was definitely lots of TLC! I recieved a daily picture and update on how he was doing which kept our minds at ease :) thank you!”
“Sunny had an absolute blast and they were so communicative and sent me updates and photos throughout his weekend stay. They made sure to be careful during feedings of the other dogs as Sunny has a poultry allergy. They are definitely recommended by me to any dog lover as they treated him as their own while he was with them.”
“Johanny is super sweet and pleasant and I can tell she loves dogs. She sent me updates and pics to let me know how Scout was doing. I will be a return customer for sure!”
“Loved loved loveddd Maria and her family! From the beginning she was very open and communication was great! She kept me updated and loved on my dog like she was part of the family. My dog is definitely sad to leave but I will be rebooking with Maria the next time I need help! Thank you and your family for loving my girl she had a blast!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
About: To me, pet sitting is never just a job; it is a commitment to keeping your best friend safe, happy, and loved. I know how deeply difficult it is to leave your dog behind. That is why my primary goal is to provide a seamless "home away from home" experience where your pet becomes a cherished part of my family. With over six years of dedicated dog care experience and as a proud parent to my own friendly 3.5-year-old dog, I understand canine behavior and companionship deeply. Your pup will instantly have a built-in playmate and a comforting routine. Your pup will never be lonely here, as I am home full-time to provide constant care, attention, and companionship, meaning our guest dogs enjoy round-the-clock supervision and love from dedicated adult. I maintain a reliable, active routine where our dog, Bruno, enjoys a 20 to 30-minutes walk twice every day, and your dog will be happily included in all of our daily strolls. While I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor exercise and socialisation. Inside, I offer an incredibly spacious layout designed for canine comfort. I have a dedicated separate room and a large, finished basement where guest dogs can freely play, run around, and sleep securely. To ensure a safe, healthy, and clean environment for our young toddler, our own dog, and your pup, I ask that all guest dogs be fully potty trained and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Beyond offering a fun environment, I bring peace of mind. I am highly experienced in administering oral medications, so you can rest assured that any specific healthcare routines your dog requires will be handled safely, accurately, and on time. Because we have a toddler, I maintain a very clean, structured, and safe home environment where all interactions between dogs and children are closely supervised. I treat every guest dog like a member of our own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and personalized care!
“Emmanuel was a super doggy care taker. From the moment I took my dog to him, he made sure my dog was comfortable. He took my dog for a little walk to get my dog used to the yard. Manny sent pictures and I can see my dog was having a good time. I appreciate the care that I received”
“Scott was very communicative and easy going. Benny came back happy and tired from all the exercise Scott was able to give him. We will definitely book with him again!”
“George was excellent with my dog Mojo. Mojo is a very timid dog and George was perfect for him. He would regularly send us videos and Mojo was happy and having so much fun. George is great and I would recommend him for anyone.”

She arranged a meet a greet prior to booking which allowed us to see how our dog interacted with her and the environment, provided numerous daily updates and photos while we were away, and returned a happy pup to us at pickup. Will definitely use her again for future needs!”
“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”

“Cassie took over our cat's care at the last minute and was exactly who we needed. Our cat is pretty temperamental, and she understood how to work with him and keep him comfortable. Since he likes her, we would definitely hire Cassie again.”
“Dani was pleasant and kind. That went a long way to our decision to have her look after our cat. We are quite satisfied and would certainly ask her to make daily visits again when the occasion arises. We are very”
“I cannot say enough about our experience with Liz. My dog always looked out the window for her when she wasn’t there to take her for a walk. I trusted her with not only my fur baby, but the key to my place so she could take care of my pup while I was at work. She never disappointed!! 5 stars isn’t enough…definitely deserves a 10!”

“OMG, Jeanne is sooo amazing!!! Always there when I need her... my PayPay loves to hang with her and her husband!!!! That alone, says a lot to me.... because he’s picky with the friends he chooses.... whether it’s take care while I’m at work or a week or two while I’m away… I’m never concerned bringing my little guy to them...”
“Brooke and Jeremy were amazing for doggy daycare. They were incredibly accommodating with my early work hours, which made everything so much easier for me. My pup tends to be pretty anxious, but they handled him with so much care and patience-it really gave me peace of mind. I truly appreciate the attention and effort they put into making him comfortable. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“We are so grateful to Michael and Perla for providing such wonderful care during our pup’s first two days of doggy daycare. As a first-time dog owner without family nearby, I was feeling quite anxious, but Michael reassured me every step of the way and kept me updated. His care and communication gave me such peace of mind. I’ve already noticed positive changes—our pup now plays more confidently and independently in the garden. We’re truly looking forward to many more daycare and boarding stays in the months ahead. There’s simply no better family to trust with your dog’s care!”
“INCREDIBLE! Christian from the minute we did our meet and greet made us feel so confident with leaving our Callie with him. He demonstrates an outstanding understanding of dogs, their behaviors, and needs. It was immediately clear how seriously he takes this. This isn't a side gig, this is his full time job. He sent us frequent picture and video updates throughout the day of our Callie girl hanging with his pack, out on walks, and lounging with the family. I do worry that if we keep bringing Callie that she won't want to come home!”
“Scott has been taking wonderful care of McClane and Miss Watson. He has a very calm demeanor and has helped them both to relax while I am away. We will be booking with Scott again. Thank you so much!”

“Absolutely Wonderful- I felt very comfortable leaving Cooper there for the day. I met Maria upon arrival, was introduced to her family and her dog. Maria was extremely nice/friendly. She sent me multiple photos after I left- letting me know he was doing well and was settling in. She was able to ease my dogs anxiety when I left by providing a loving environment and giving him a calming treat (provided by me-owner) I would definitely book with her again. Great experience!”
“Jackie was amazing looking after my dog! She and her family treated my dog like he was part of the family! Jackie was very easy to work with, very professional, and it’s easy to tell she has a passion for animals! I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Lori is the sweetest person I have ever met!! She was extremely kind to not only me but my dog as well. She went above and beyond and was incredibly flexible and understanding. She treated my dog like it was her own. I will always book my dog at her place because I know my dog has a great time there :)”

About: I’m David, a dedicated Pet Pawtrait Photographer 🐾📸 and the owner of Charlie’s Pet Pawtraits & Boutique in the Lehigh Valley, PA. Caring for dogs isn’t just a job for me—it’s a heartfelt passion inspired by my beloved pup Charlie, who was with me for over 11 wonderful years. Losing him was tough, but it left me with an abundance of love 💙 I’m eager to share with other dogs through both personalized care and capturing their spirit through photography. I offer a boutique, home-like dog care environment 🏡 where I never take in more than 1–3 dogs at a time, ensuring your dog receives plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime in our spacious indoor gallery, and adventures on the nearby D&L Trail as well as numerous local parks 🚶🌳🐕. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and peace of mind are my top priorities—I treat every pup as if they were my own family. I’m also a proud dad to a mature 9-year-old who lovingly helps me care for dogs, adding to the warm and nurturing atmosphere 👧❤️. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a calm senior, or anywhere in between, I’m patient and adaptable to their needs. As a special thank you for choosing my care, I’ll send you beautiful photos of your dog enjoying their stay—and if you’d like, high-quality non-watermarked downloads of these photos are available upon request 🎁✨. This way, you get to see just how happy and comfortable your pup is during their time with us! In addition to care, I offer pet portrait sessions either in my studio or at your favorite location—and many pet owners enjoy choosing one of our recommended local spots near the studio for a special outing and photoshoot 🎞️🐶.

As the owner of our pet photography boutique and photography studio 🐾📸, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pet. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I prioritize making sure every pup in my care feels loved and well attended to 💙. My 9-year-old daughter, who is mature and gentle 👧❤️, is often excited to help out and meet new furry friends, adding to the loving, family-like environment. Pet care is truly integrated into our daily life and brings so much joy to both of us 😊. This balance allows me to provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime 🐕🎾, and peaceful rest moments for every dog, while also continuing to grow my photography passion and business. Your pets will be treated with the same love and care I gave my own beloved pup 🐕❤️—a love that was abundant and unconditional. I create a safe, nurturing environment 🏡 where every dog feels comfortable, valued, and truly at home. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with attentive, compassionate care that puts their well-being first 🐾😊.

About: I have owned animals all of my life. I currently have 4 dogs (2 labs, one rat terrier mix, and a corgie), a cat. In the past I've owned labs, Samoyeds, birds, fish, and a multitude of cats. I have a huge heart for animals and love to spoil them. The joy and love that animals bring to our hearts is unmatched. I work for a school, so I do have summer's off; meaning that I will have plenty of time to play with pets. During the school year, I am available after 3pm for afternoon walks. I will always choose what you prefer and what is best for you dog. I am not offering to have dogs stay in my home, due to the chaotic nature of my home. I will gladly walk your dog or play with them during the day. I will be sure to monitor wheather conditions and make the best choice for your pet.
About: I’ve grown up around all different types of dogs: Maltese poodles, labs, Frenchies, bulldogs, and more! I’m an occupational therapy assistant looking to make some extra income and share my love for furry friends! Currently I am on summer break and I am available for walks and visits any time of day. I am also available on weekends with booking in advance. I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and strengths! I am very aware of my surroundings on walks and will take any precautions to ensure your furry friend is safe!
About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I bring over 50 years of hands-on experience working with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a former veterinary technician, I’m comfortable with everything from giving medications to caring for senior pets and puppies who need extra attention. I know how to spot signs of stress, discomfort, or illness early, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, training reinforcement, or simply making sure your furry friend feels safe and loved, I go the extra mile to keep tails wagging and owners at ease. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily routine — it’s second nature to me! I work full-time, but my evenings (after 5pm), Tuesdays, and weekends are dedicated to spending quality time with pets. At home, I share my life with two sweet cats of my own, so there’s never a day that doesn’t involve a little extra love, play, or purring. I also volunteer regularly at my local cat sanctuary, so even when I’m not with Rover pets, I’m surrounded by whiskers, paws, and wagging tails. Pet care isn’t just something I do — it’s truly who I am. I specialize in caring for pets right where they’re most comfortable — in their home! This means your pets get to stick to their normal routine, sleep in their favorite spots, and enjoy all the comforts they’re used to. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick check-in, feeding, playtime, or walks, or staying overnight to keep your pets company, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My focus is on giving them the kind of attention and care they’d get if you were home yourself.
About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life, but started taking care of dogs around the time I was 12 and moreso with cats around 13. We adopted a dog when I was 12 and I fed her, walked her, bathed her, taught her tricks, played with her, we'd even cuddle! We fostered a dog from a hoarder and had another dog after the loss of the last one and I continued to repeat the cycle with this big crazy whippersnapper! Where I was working part-time just closed for the season, so I have plenty of free time for playing with your pups and kitties!!! When I'm not in school, I'll be taking care of my pets and helping my mom out with them around the house, she does Rover too and recommended I get on it. For drop ins, I like to meet the pet first and learn about their likes and dislikes and where to find all of their things. I like to ask questions on how to make sure they feel most comfortable with a new person and try to follow that advice to make sure they feel their best. For walks, I like to get an idea of where they like to walk and any behaviors I can expect while walking them before we head out on our adventure!
“Tim came over for a meet and greet before our requested walks. The three times Tim walked Dozer, he was punctual, friendly and attended to Dozer’s needs. This is the first time using a dog walker. We would definitely ask Tim to do it again.”

About: Hi, I'm Marla! I've always been an animal person, with having a cat of my own as well as two dogs, so I'm experienced with taking care of animals. Seeing pets is always a way to brighten my day, they bring me lots of joy! I've pet sat many dogs and a few reptiles! I'm looking to pet sit dogs, cats, fish & other animals as well. I know people have their own lives and need some assistance in taking care of their animals, and I am always here to help! If you need someone to walk your dog, feed your animals, clean up after them, or even just keep them entertained, I am the girl for you! I am a college student, so I am available from May 24th through August 31st. I've worked with animals practically my whole life, since my family has had cats and dogs since I was young. I started taking care of other animals in the past few years, this past summer I pet sat for many families. I’m experienced with pet sitting puppies, as I pet sat for two puppies recently. I’m also experienced with older dogs and giving animals medication. In my spare time, I read, hike, hangout with friends, or just watch a new movie/show. Excited to work with you! I am available practically everyday this summer to pet sit your animals! I do go back to college in late August, so I’m available until then. I prefer pet-sitting over boarding animals. I’m also comfortable with overnight care. I make sure the pets are happy, entertained, and fed. I clean their food bowls after each meal to ensure safety and cleanliness. I provide as many walks as the owner feels is appropriate. I’m also comfortable taking care of accidents, as I’ve pet sat puppies that were learning to be potty trained and have pets of my own.
About: My name is Cassy and I’ve been recommended for dog/cat sitting. I’m excellent with instructions, and have a warm heart for furry friends. Pets are the heart of the home! Medication administration is a important process that I take very seriously. I’m currently working as a Special Education teacher’sand would love to take care of animals in my free time. My work schedule starts at 9:00 am until 3:15 pm Monday through Friday. Let’s communicate our schedules and we’ll make it work for us and your furry friends. Thank you for opening up your home! I will come in and let your pets smell my hand to make a positive association while we have a chat about the best schedule for your fur baby. I will take care of your beloved pet in the comfort of your own home and the sidewalks of your neighborhood. Your best friend will be in good hands with me. We can go through your four legged companion(s) detailed plan together so I can give them the best care possible.
About: I have had pets since childhood and currently own a two-year-old German Shepherd who is both affectionate and energetic. Caring for her has given me hands-on experience in handling, training, and providing attentive care for large dogs. I am passionate about working with dogs and would be delighted to provide the same level of care and attention to yours. I currently work during the day; however, I maintain a flexible remote schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care needs, including walks and outdoor breaks, at various times throughout the day. This flexibility enables me to support pet owners with more demanding or less adaptable schedules. I have fenced in yard and plenty of space for play time! I also have a patio where pets can relax out of the sun
About: I’ve grown up with birds, a beautiful pit and now a rescue kitty! I enjoy playing with animals and learning their personalities. I’ve taught my cat many tricks and would hope to keep teacher her more so I can keep her happy and lovely. Im an online college student, co' 29! I have lots of time and flexibility to do walks and check-ins that accommodate you and your pet. I groom my cat once a week! She gets her suggested meals and I make sure she has her playtime to keep her happy and healthy!
“Elizabeth is reliable, friendly, punctual, and professional, and my stubborn dog took to her immediately. She brings a lot of positive energy and love with her, and I know my pup is in good hands with her. Looking forward to continuing to have her walk him on a weekly basis!”

“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Brooke and Jeremy were excellent hosts! It was nice receiving updates and pictures during our dogs stay and by the looks of it he had a great time! We would highly recommend them and would certainly use again!”
“Jennifer was so understanding, kind, and compassionate with my anxious senior dog. I used her for an overnight visit and my quickly felt comfortable at her home. I highly recommend her and hope to use her services again!”
“Sunny had an absolute blast and they were so communicative and sent me updates and photos throughout his weekend stay. They made sure to be careful during feedings of the other dogs as Sunny has a poultry allergy. They are definitely recommended by me to any dog lover as they treated him as their own while he was with them.”

About: To me, pet sitting is never just a job; it is a commitment to keeping your best friend safe, happy, and loved. I know how deeply difficult it is to leave your dog behind. That is why my primary goal is to provide a seamless "home away from home" experience where your pet becomes a cherished part of my family. With over six years of dedicated dog care experience and as a proud parent to my own friendly 3.5-year-old dog, I understand canine behavior and companionship deeply. Your pup will instantly have a built-in playmate and a comforting routine. Your pup will never be lonely here, as I am home full-time to provide constant care, attention, and companionship, meaning our guest dogs enjoy round-the-clock supervision and love from dedicated adult. I maintain a reliable, active routine where our dog, Bruno, enjoys a 20 to 30-minutes walk twice every day, and your dog will be happily included in all of our daily strolls. While I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor exercise and socialisation. Inside, I offer an incredibly spacious layout designed for canine comfort. I have a dedicated separate room and a large, finished basement where guest dogs can freely play, run around, and sleep securely. To ensure a safe, healthy, and clean environment for our young toddler, our own dog, and your pup, I ask that all guest dogs be fully potty trained and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Beyond offering a fun environment, I bring peace of mind. I am highly experienced in administering oral medications, so you can rest assured that any specific healthcare routines your dog requires will be handled safely, accurately, and on time. Because we have a toddler, I maintain a very clean, structured, and safe home environment where all interactions between dogs and children are closely supervised. I treat every guest dog like a member of our own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and personalized care!
“Emmanuel was a super doggy care taker. From the moment I took my dog to him, he made sure my dog was comfortable. He took my dog for a little walk to get my dog used to the yard. Manny sent pictures and I can see my dog was having a good time. I appreciate the care that I received”
“Scott was very communicative and easy going. Benny came back happy and tired from all the exercise Scott was able to give him. We will definitely book with him again!”
“George was excellent with my dog Mojo. Mojo is a very timid dog and George was perfect for him. He would regularly send us videos and Mojo was happy and having so much fun. George is great and I would recommend him for anyone.”
“David R loves my baby Luther and they had an absolute ball hanging out together. David goes above and beyond making your pet feel loved and well cared for. Plus he takes really nice pictures of your dog and keeps in contact regularly so you won’t worry about a thing. Highly recommend.”
“As a first time Rover user, Missy provided such a wonderful experience start to finish. She arranged a meet a greet prior to booking which allowed us to see how our dog interacted with her and the environment, provided numerous daily updates and photos while we were away, and returned a happy pup to us at pickup. Will definitely use her again for future needs!”
“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”
“Carol was great. Responsive to all inquiries, kept us up to date on Rufus and sent pictures daily. Rufus had a blast. He came home happy and relaxed. We would definitely use Carol again and highly recommend her services.”
“Timothy took excellent care of our dog. He fed her as requested and gave her daily morning walks of up to 3 miles. His fenced in back yard was enough for her to play with his dog, and they got along great instantly. During the hottest week of the summer so far, Tim gave her lots of indoor A/C time to ensure our fur ball remained cool. All-in-all it was a great week for Gemma and you could tell when we picked her up that she really liked Tim.”
“Our dogs had a very nice stay with Kim. She was easy to schedule last minute and was very quick getting back to us and communication was excellent. She kept us up to date with pictures and how they were doing. One of our dogs had a potty accident when we first arrived from the excitement, but Kim was very understanding and thought nothing of it. Definitely recommend the care she gives. Thanks Kim!”
“Christian was wonderful with Marley. He was also very accommodating to me with my drop off and pick up schedule. Marley clearly loved his stay since he didn’t seem to want to leave Christian’s side. I highly recommend Christian and will definitely book again.”
