Highly-rated overnight sitters - Freeland
“This is the second time Amber has watched my pups. It is such a relief to be able to go on a vacation and not be stressed about leaving your pups. She updated me and sent pics daily. My pups really enjoy the stays and its like a vacation for them too. Thank you again, Amber”
“Debbie and Phil have watched Zola numerous times and always treat her like their own! I never have to worry about her when she is with them. Their house and yard is an absolute retreat for Zola. Five stars all the way and highly recommend them!”
“Christy and her family were great with our dog Bucky, who is an excitable one year old Australian Cattle Dog. I got regular updates and felt very good leaving our pup with her.”
“My wife and I are very protective of our little dachshund Wella. When we read Julie's first response to our request, we knew right away that she and her family were the mature and responsible people we could trust to watch our dog. Julie sent multiple updates and photos to us while she had Wella, and that was very nice and reassuring. They did so great with Wella that she seemed to want to stay longer! The kids played so much with Wella that she needed to sleep in the next day! Great experience with Julie and her family and We are looking forward to using her again !!”
“Laura did a wonderful job in caring for our dogs. It was very nice to receive updates on how well they are doing along with pictures of them bonding with her family. This had allowed my husband and I to enjoy our honeymoon knowing our babies are in good hands. We will definitely book her again the next time we need a dog sitter. Thank you Laura!”
“Glenn took fantastic care of our pups while we were away. It was reassuring to know that they were in good hands while we were out on vacation, would definitely recommend having him watch our fur babies in the future!”
“Highly recommend Lorraine! We rescued our dog Westley from a kill shelter so he is very timid and skittish around new people. We also have never left him with anyone before. Lorraine was very patient with him and extremely compassionate and caring. She is prompt with message responses and updates. I couldn't have chosen a better sitter for Westley and plan on using Lorraine in the future!”
“Anna was the best! In the few moments I got to meet her I could tell right away she's a very empathetic, kind and caring person. She is passionate about animals and is great at understanding their behavior and adapting to it. She has her own dogs which are very well taken care of and better trained than my Bara, mine is an only-puppy so it helped with socializing her! She gave me daily updates with very detailed info on my puppy's day and tons of photos and videos. She played with her, gave her tons of treats, took her out on walks and even had movie night with her! I didn't have to worry at all. She completely won my Bara's heart.”
“Wonderful people with hearts of gold! They cared for our dog like he was their own—he had an incredible time filled with long walks, playful moments, and lots of love. We couldn’t have asked for better care.”
“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!”
“We were very nervous about leaving our dog with a new sitter. Jahada-Heaven provided us with daily pictures and updates to help ease our anxiety. Tanner was well cared for and will certainly use Jahada again.”
“I would highly recommend Karen and Donald if you love your pet and you do not want to worry about them while you are away. I received daily reports and photos of my dog. If I had a question, I got an immediate response. They have a fenced in yard and their house is partitioned off to give dogs their own space. Thank you! Carol and Rosie”
“This is my second time booking with Gwen. Each time was a phenomenal experience. Gwen was extremely thoughtful, provided frequent updates, and several pictures of my pup's vacation. Always appreciated, thank you!”
“Megan is a very experienced dog person who knows just how to put new Rover users at ease. She took very good care of our energetic young dog and updated us often with pics during our week long vacation. Her big yard and pond down the road is an excellent setting for most active dogs. We will be back again!”

“We appreciate Heather so much! I love the peace of mind knowing my pets are receiving great care while I’m gone. Thanks for being so patient while I learn to use the Rover app, Heather! You’re the best!”
“Jule was a God-send for me while I was on vacation! She made sure their food and water was filled, scooped the litter boxes, swept up around the litter boxes, and stayed and played with the kitties for awhile. She took lots of pictures to send to me while I was away. My white cat, Tigger, hides whenever anyone comes over (he only stays out for me) and she had pictures of him laying on the couch!!! He was relaxed and didn’t feel scared. It’s so nice knowing I have someone I can depend on because in the past I have struggled to find someone that I could 100% depend on. Thanks Jule. The kitties thank you too!”

“We had a great experience with Lynne as our sitter. This was going to be the first time seeking pet care and the longest we’d be away from our two cats. Before our trip, we had a lovely meet and greet which immediately put us at ease. During our time away, she completed the drop in visits exactly as requested/agreed upon and kept is up to date with notes and photos each time.

“Jannan did a wonderful job watching my cat, Callie. Callie warmed up to her right away and it seemed like she really enjoyed her company. I would recommend Jannan to anyone looking for a kind and caring pet sitter! I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: I used to hate cats when I was a kid until I got my first cat, Sombra. She was found on the side of the road as a kitten by a friend and asked if my mother and I could take her in. I was hesitant at first, but decided to give her a chance. 9 years later, and I love her to death, despite her feisty attitude. Most recently,2 years ago, I found 2 more black kittens in an abandoned building, a brother and sister. We took them in with the intention of fostering them until they were old enough to adopt out, but unfortunately, since black cats aren't popular, no one wanted them. I decided to keep them for myself, and now Milan and Marcille are happily living together, with Sombra. (all of my cats are indoor cats)

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.
“Jule was amazing! She exceeded any and all expectations we had. She was prompt with pickup and drop off. I received pictures and updates throughout the day. All in all we had an AMAZING first experience and look forward to using her for future doggie sitting needs.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I have also assisted in helping senior dogs. I truly enjoy taking dogs for walks. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend lots of quality time with the dogs in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pup feels right at home! Available most weekdays I will take great care of all pets. I have a very large yard for exploring and the pets are welcome in my home. Most importantly I will focus on what the owners think is most important for their pet.
“My puppy was very happy when I picked her up so I know she had a great time. I was so worried about having to leave her home alone for so long while at work so I was happy to find this website. I know my puppy had the time of her life playing with her dog. I trust Amber with my puppy anytime and I hope she is available if needed in the future. Thank you.”
“Rielly was friendly and did a wonderful job updating me on how my fur baby was doing! Taking care of a 4 month old puppy is no easy task and she did amazing! She even bathed him and gave him a cute little bow tie! I will definitely use her services again!”
About: Since I was born, I’ve always had dogs! Over my life, I’ve had seven dogs of my own. I currently have 3 large dogs, one medium. Since I was ten, me and my family have been fostering dozens of dogs of all different kinds! Newborn puppies, seniors, and every puppy in between. I’ve dealt with aggressive dogs, skittish dogs, and nervous nellies. I love dogs no matter what! Since beginning to foster, I’ve had to train many dogs, both younger and older. I’m skilled in leash training, commands (sit/lay/come), and much more. As of right now, my schedule is completely open! I am happy to accommodate to early mornings, late nights, and everything in between to fit you and your puppy’s needs! I live in the woods, far from dangerous, busy roads. I have PLENTY of room for running, playing, and walking. I have multiple walking trails behind my house, as well as a pond that my puppies love to play in. I currently have two very friendly dogs at my house, who can be separated need be via a soft gate I have in my home. I have multiple crates available if your puppy needs it. My house is full of toys, treats, and dog beds. A dog’s paradise! If not in my home, I will be sure to abide by all house rules set by my client!
“I was very nervous leaving my new puppy for an entire day, but had no other choice. I found Lorraine on Rover.com. She was so very sweet to Bella, and I felt confident that Bella would have a great time spending the day with her and her husband. I know she treated Bella as if she was her own and loved her the way I do. I will definitely use Lorraine again and have no reservations in recommending her to others.”
“Very attentive to my dog. Sent me pics of her playing and resting. First time visit and my dog seemed comfortable. She made sure to check for allergies and preferences (allowed on furniture, etc).”
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.

About: When it comes to what sets me apart from other sitters, it's all about my passion and experience in training dogs. I am a force-free dog trainer who is also currently pursuing my degree in Animal Health and Behavior Science. I've been in the dog world for over 8 years! During this time, I have attended many webinars/seminars to learn more about dogs and developed a deep understanding of their body language and how they communicate, as well as how to help them navigate the world around them. In summer of 2023, I began taking on dog training clients, as well as reaching out to animal shelters to volunteer. I have found myself to be skilled in many areas of dog training such as: Socialization, leash manners, reactivity, potty training, puppy training and more! I am able to switch around depending on the dog to perfectly match their needs and behavior. One more thing that sets me apart is how willing I am to change around depending on your dog. I am very active and a very avid hiker, so if your dog enjoys a hike, then we will absolutely go hiking. If your dog is a couch potato and would rather sleep all day we can then chill at home on the couch and watch movies together! I am also a photographer so your pets will go home with professional photos that will last a lifetime! When you entrust your precious pup to me, you can be confident that they'll receive top-notch care and guidance. I'll create a safe and positive environment where they can thrive and be their happiest selves. They’ll return home to you happy, well-cared for, and fulfilled. 🌟 I am currently still working my way through university (which is online), which means that I am available every day of the week the exception of some weekends! I have a friendly, but neutral, 2 year old border called named Vena, and a shy 5 year old cat named Cali, who typically likes to stay to herself. My dog is very well trained and is able to ignore dogs. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a potty area where the dogs can go out on leash. I live right near the walking trail that goes along the susquehanna, and a short drive from Seven Tubs, which I visit frequently. All dogs will be safely restrained in the car, either in a crash tested harness or crate, which I provide! When visiting homes, I will be sure to follow all house rules. I will make sure to introduce myself to the dogs/cats in a safe and positive way!

I haven’t even needed Audrey except for a couple times - but I keep her regular twice a week because CoCo loves her so much. I’ve called Audrey a couple times at the last minute or to add an extra day and she always come through for me.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and Golden Retriever owner, I treat every pup like family — with patience, structure, and plenty of love. I have experience raising puppies (including crate training and managing food sensitivity) and caring for senior dogs who need a gentler touch. What sets me apart is my calm, consistent approach and attention to each dog’s personality and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and I truly enjoy building trust — not just with your dog, but with you too. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or keeping routines on track, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine — I have two lovable Golden Retrievers of my own, so walks, playtime, and structured care are already built into my day. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday exercise, or evening snuggles, I’m used to providing calm, attentive care throughout the day. Pet sitting isn’t just a side task — it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. Whether in my home or yours, I care for pets with the same love, structure, and attention I give my own dogs. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment with room to play, structured routines, and plenty of snuggles. I keep a consistent schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, and downtime, and I’m happy to accommodate crate training or special needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free — feeding, walks, playtime, and medications (if needed) are all handled with care. I respect your space, follow instructions closely, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety.
About: I have never been without an animal. A portion of my home is now empty and I am able to take on some pet sitting duties so you don’t have to have strangers coming into your home! I also do overnights at your home as well and can give references. I generally work dayshift m-f based on the school calendar so days we have no school I am off as well and off weekends of course. Any other times needed just ask. :-) Your pets will have free reign of the area unless you want otherwise. Walks, treats, meals, schedules are based on what you tell me they need.

I will care for and love your fur babies as if they were my own (which I’m sure you have heard before) but allow that to speak for itself… you won’t regret it!

“My wife and I are very protective of our little dachshund Wella. When we read Julie's first response to our request, we knew right away that she and her family were the mature and responsible people we could trust to watch our dog. Julie sent multiple updates and photos to us while she had Wella, and that was very nice and reassuring. They did so great with Wella that she seemed to want to stay longer! The kids played so much with Wella that she needed to sleep in the next day! Great experience with Julie and her family and We are looking forward to using her again !!”
“Laura did a wonderful job in caring for our dogs. It was very nice to receive updates on how well they are doing along with pictures of them bonding with her family. This had allowed my husband and I to enjoy our honeymoon knowing our babies are in good hands. We will definitely book her again the next time we need a dog sitter. Thank you Laura!”
“Highly recommend Lorraine! We rescued our dog Westley from a kill shelter so he is very timid and skittish around new people. We also have never left him with anyone before. Lorraine was very patient with him and extremely compassionate and caring. She is prompt with message responses and updates. I couldn't have chosen a better sitter for Westley and plan on using Lorraine in the future!”
“Anna was the best! In the few moments I got to meet her I could tell right away she's a very empathetic, kind and caring person. She is passionate about animals and is great at understanding their behavior and adapting to it. She has her own dogs which are very well taken care of and better trained than my Bara, mine is an only-puppy so it helped with socializing her! She gave me daily updates with very detailed info on my puppy's day and tons of photos and videos. She played with her, gave her tons of treats, took her out on walks and even had movie night with her! I didn't have to worry at all. She completely won my Bara's heart.”
“Wonderful people with hearts of gold! They cared for our dog like he was their own—he had an incredible time filled with long walks, playful moments, and lots of love. We couldn’t have asked for better care.”
“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!”
“We were very nervous about leaving our dog with a new sitter. Jahada-Heaven provided us with daily pictures and updates to help ease our anxiety. Tanner was well cared for and will certainly use Jahada again.”
“Megan is a very experienced dog person who knows just how to put new Rover users at ease. She took very good care of our energetic young dog and updated us often with pics during our week long vacation. Her big yard and pond down the road is an excellent setting for most active dogs. We will be back again!”
“Hailey did an amazing job with Kylo. We were worried about leaving him since he has never been to a new place with us. She did such a great job with him and sent us photos of his stay. He felt we didn't have to worry at all. We are so happy we chose Hailey to watch our family member. We recommend her to anyone who wants to feel carefree when they have to leave their pet behind.”
“Laura was great with our dog Shadow. He has anxiety and she was very patient with him. She kept us up to date on how he was doing. We definitely will be using her as our dog sitter in the future.”
“Jule took the such good care of my two Portuguese water dogs. They took such a liking to her and you could tell how comfortable they were around her. Any time I need dog care in the area she will be my first call!”
