“Repeat customer here. Gwen was a huge help with my 16 year old cat Polly. While away, we got a notification that our power went out. It was easy to get in touch with Gwen through the Rover App to discuss the situation. She made sure Polly was safe and secure during the outage and even asked if there was anything else she could do for us during her drop in visit. I’m so glad that Gwen was available to watch Polly while we were away; I could rest assured that Polly was in good hands.”
“Jenna communicates so well! Inga is a rescue who had a rough 2 years as a pup. It has taken Inga 14 years of TLC from us to get to where she is - lovable and sweet. Jenna is experienced and knows how to approach Inga and win her over her affection. Kudos to Jenna❣️”

We came home to two happy kitty cats and could not be more grateful for what she did as it eased our anxiety and concerns. We will definitely rebook for Jennifer all events and future vacations due to the compassion she exhibited. Thank you for all you did/do.”

About: My family has owned a pet sitting business in Stroudsburg, called IOU Pet Care, for 15+ years. The first job I ever had was going to people’s homes and walking their pups for an hour, checking food and water bowls as well as litter boxes, or even staying the night there. For the past 15 years, since I was 15 years old, I’ve cared for almost every species of house pet you can think of, in just about every way that the owners needed.
About: I love all animals, especially cats! I love discovering their personalities and earning their trust. I have had my own cats for 5 years, everything from litter box cleanings to hair ball tips and tricks to FIV medication administration.

About: As a nurse and experienced rescue volunteer, I bring a unique blend of medical knowledge, compassion, and hands-on pet care experience. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to sweet seniors needing extra patience and support. I’m comfortable with medication administration, post-surgery care, and recognizing signs of distress. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As the founder of a dog rescue and a stay-at-home mom, my routine is centered around caring for both animals and people. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medications, or giving extra cuddles, I make time every day to meet each pet’s unique needs. I also keep a flexible schedule to accommodate drop-ins, overnights, and last-minute bookings. Providing a safe, loving environment for animals isn’t just a routine—it’s my passion and purpose. In my home, pets are treated like family. They have a cozy, calm environment where they can relax, play, and feel safe. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walks, playing in a fenced in area and bathroom breaks, and I tailor care to each dog’s needs—whether it’s crate training, senior support, or giving extra attention to anxious pups. In clients’ homes, I follow all instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. Cleanliness, safety, and lots of love are always my top priorities—no matter where I’m caring for your pet.
“Awesome!!! Dasher made a new best friend! On our second day, he was wagging his tail and super excited as we drove up her driveway. He had a second home.

Joann’s attention to detail and genuine love for animals really showed. Highly recommend and will definitely book again! Thank you for treating Minnie like family! She misses Remi already !!!!”

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 🎞️🐶. I’m excited to meet your pup and provide a personalized, loving experience that truly sets us apart from typical kennel-style sitters. 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 🐾😊.

We host both puppies and elderly pets and are accustomed to their needs. We encourage meet and greets as well to allow you and your dog to become familiar with us beforehand and to answer all questions you may have. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Whether your pup is sprightly or senior, playful or shy, I tune into their personality and pace. I offer more than just care—I offer connection, trust, and peace of mind. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer consistent, reliable walks throughout the day. I’m happy to communicate updates, photos, or notes so you always feel connected and confident. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I bring a calm, attentive presence to every walk, always keeping a close eye on surroundings, leash safety, and your fur baby’s well-being.

If you have cats that are part time outdoor cats and also indoor cats -- I will only let the cats out, while I am at the house 100% of the time and supervising them, as I want to ensure that your pets are safe.

I believe through compassion, love, and the pure joy of my love for animals, I am able to work with any animal giving them, alongside their owner, a true peace of mind. I have experience with senior dogs who may need a little more time to walk or some extra help up on the bed. I am able to provide medication (liquid, tablet, topical, ointments, etc.). I am very thorough and detail oriented and am able to provide that same form to both the pet and for the owner in their own individual ways. They say if you love what you do you will never work a day in your life: I have yet to work as I LOVE what I do. I look forward to providing the best environment, form of love, and any other need they may have, in order to provide an exceptional service to you and yours! Animals know when they are truly cared for and yours will note that from the moment we meet and it will shine through to you to see first hand and provide the high level of confidence in me with your loved ones! I am very thankful to have a job that is work from home so I am able to provide 24/7 care, many walks, and endless potty breaks! I have 2 amazing boys of my own: Hercules - French Bulldog and Leo - Old English Bulldog. These boys are my world and needless to say very spoiled. From laying in bed with me, to an endless supply of toys and treats, these boys get birthday parties and much more! I allow the pets to lay in bed, utilize the sofa and chairs, and have free roam of the house. I follow the client's routines to a T as well in order to maintain consistency as consistency is key!

“We boarded our 60lb Golden Doodle with Kathy for 7 nights. She was very well looked after, happy and healthy when we returned. kathy is great to work with and sent updates and was very careful to ask questions and follow suggestions of our dogs care. She's also a lovely lady and good communicator”
“Shantel pulled through for us on a last minute boarding. Kai seemed to enjoy her best life at Shantell's based on the pictures we got back. Great communication, would choose her again if we needed to.”
“Parcha stayed overnight at Dawn’s for two days. Dawn sent me progress reports with plenty of pictures. I could tell that Parcha was enjoying her stay. Dawn and her family played and interacted with Parcha. Her two boys played with her, gave her hugs and kisses. There were two other dogs that Parcha was able to socialize with as well. She also was able to run and exercise in the yard. Parcha came home and fell fast asleep. She was on doggie vacation with Dawn. Two fun filled days. I am very pleased with the service Dawn provided. She is a real dog lover. I highly recommend her.”
“My pup came home happy and tired!!! Ana was incredibly communicative and responsive throughout the whole process and made sure to send me a picture of my girl every day!! I would absolutely bring her back and recommend Ana to anyone!!!”
“Zeus loved his stay. I enjoy receiving multiple pictures of my fur baby during his boarding. Abner went out of his way to pick up Zeus, for which I appreciated, and reduced some of my pre travel stress. I will be using him again.”
“Kim watched our two dogs and made our first rover experience simple. She responded to all of our questions quickly and kept us updated daily on how our pups were doing. Would recommend to anyone living in the area!”
“Laura and her family is the sweetest dogsitter family! She kept me updated on how Momo is doing and took pictures for me. She was super accomodating to my last minute extension. I would highly, highly, highly recommend her to anyone in the area! Thank you, Laura and family for taking such good care of my princess while I was away.”
“We were a little nervous since we’d never used Rover before, but everything went so smoothly. Owen & Emily took great care of our precious girl overnight, sent us updates, and made us feel completely at ease.”
“David is very awesome, had a great time with my dog and my dog had a great time with him, plus he is an amazing photographer. The pictures he took and sent to me from his stay are truly beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful memories.”
“I was very satisfied with the service they provided. I loved the fact that they sent over photos of how my Bella was doing. I would recommend them and I plan on using them again.”
“I highly recommend Johanny. She send me videos/photos of my two doggies everyday, sometimes multiple times and they were enjoying every minute. Definitely I will rebook with her.”
“Kaipo loved Scotts home. He was so excited to be there. Nice big yard to run around in and other dogs to play with as well. One of the biggest changes I noticed after Kaipos' stay was that he now returns the ball to me when we play fetch. He would never do that before. Keep away was his favorite game. Took him to dog park and I was throwing the ball for him for nearly an hour. He bought it back every time, dropped it and waited for me to pick it up and throw it again. That was a nice change and I want to thank Scott for fixing that. I had fun.”
“Once again, Nala had a great time at Jack and Joanne's. And we were able to go away for a few days knowing she was being lovingly cared for! Thank you so much Jack and Joanne!”
“Joan was a great sitter for our baby, Nimer. I loved receiving daily updates on how he was doing as well as pictures and videos. We chose the boarding option, and Nimer had the best time at Joan's house, sleeping on her bed, playing in the cat tunnels, and climbing the cat trees. He also got along so well with her ferrets! Her house is free of any harmful products and is a safe space for just about any pet. Nimer will definitely be coming back when we go on our next trip. Highly recommend!”
“What an amazing experience! It felt like I left my pup with family. They kept me in the loop and I could tell my pup was happy. What more can you ask for. Amazing. Thank you.”
“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.”
“Stefi took great care of my dog, was accommodating of her raw diet, sent pictures, and gave regular updates. She was communicative and very flexible when my trip was unexpectedly extended and even worked with my later pickup time. The only thing I’d suggest is confirming any requirements (like rabies certificates) earlier in the process to avoid last-minute stress. Overall, very very thankful for her help and would book again.”
