“Chewie enjoyed his 8 day stay with Sowmya. This was our second time using her and will use again in the future. Pictures to keep in touch and flexible with pick up arrangements. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time I used a pet sitting service and it was a very positive experience. Elizabeth was great with my dogs. Her communication before and during their stay was fantastic, with pics and videos! I was able to enjoy and relax during my vacation because I knew my dogs were going to be well cared for.”
“Heather and her family greeted our dogs with loving, open arms. They have a lovely home with a farm which allowed the dogs to be entertained from their playpen with chickens and ducks. Our dogs are completely happy with no problems while they were visiting Heather and Family. Heather is great at communication and gets back to you right away. We asked for pictures and Heather sent lots of pictures to comfort us knowing our girls were safe and well loved.”
“Miss Bobbi did a wonderful job with our Westie! We are so happy we found her! She sent messages, pictures and videos every day during our vacation and was very easy to communicate with. Our dog loved playing with Nala and running around in the yard! We will definitely use Bobbi again!”
“Diana took amazing care of our girl! Who is VERY high energy and loves to play. She sent us videos every day of them playing fetch and/or on walks in the fields. We love that Diana is comfortable and familiar with using an e collar and can have Bella off leash. Bella can’t wait to go back! 🥰”
“Patricia was amazing! She sent pictures, loved my dogs, took them on walks and to a near by park, and sent me updates. She was also very flexible for me. We were an hour late to drop off due to traffic and we were able to pick them up on a Sunday at 4:30pm instead of 7pm, and Patricia was super helpful.”
“I am so very pleased with Cheryl and her furry family. Cheryl was very meticulous about assessing my dogs needs and care right from the start. My dog is quite skidish about new dogs, new environments and new people. This was no challenge for Cheryl. She was able to ease my dogs insecurities right away and allowed her 2 dogs time to meet our little girl on her terms and very cautiously. Cheryl was flexible with my drop off and pick up times and communicated with me throughout the entire stay with updates and photos. She also provided my dog with medications for her skin and gave us great feedback on how I may be able to better care for her allergies. Cheryl is a very responsible dog owner and it certainly carries into her ability to care for my dog as well. My dog was happy and stress free while in Cheryl's care and I will definitely be using her again! If you're looking for a caretaker that will provide top notch care and treat your furry companion with the love and respect they deserve, then look no further and reach out to Cheryl.”
“De'Andra and Robert were fantastic. They kept me up to date with photos and videos from Winnie's stay. I had some weird scheduling issues and the worked with me to make sure my baby was taken care of! Crosby was also very welcoming to my pup :)”
“Jack took great care of Tazzabelle. He updated me daily with pictures. She seems happy when we picked her up. Would not hesitate to leave Tazzabelle with him again.”
“They did a great job with our two dogs (Boston terrier [age 1], King Charles [age 5]). Constant communication with pictures and a nice sized, fully fenced back yard.”
“Jacob was the absolute best with Benji. Our regular sitter was out of town and on short notice, Jacob saved the weekend for us. Right away from drop-off I had a sense of calm and peace with Jacob, his pets, and his beautiful backyard. Jacob sent pictures while away that showed Benji fitting right in with his new friends. I'll gladly use Jacob's services again and he really helped put our mind at ease!”
“Jaideep and his family were wonderful with our Frenchie Guinness. They made us feel so at ease during the meet and greet, and we enjoyed our vacation immensely not having to worry if our pup was OK. It was wonderful receiving updates and pictures several times a day, keeping us informed on how G was doing during our absence. We will definitely use him again!”
“Oleg was wonderful to work with. He was responsive and took our dogs last minute when we had to go out of town for a funeral. Our pups had so much fun with his family and his lab. They both came home exhausted from lots of play time! We will definitely use Oleg’s services again.”
“Kathy was great!! We loved waking up to the morning updates of how our Skye was doing. Highly recommend and we will definitely be returning in the future!”
“Oliver was so loved by Svitlana and her family. I had regular updates and photos, and my dog seemed so comfortable and happy while there. Svitlana was very communicative, and I highly recommend her. We will be repeat customers for sure.”
“Victoria is a really caring and reliable sitter. She’s great with small dogs and very knowledgeable about their needs, so she gave us peace of mind during our vacation. She has a beautiful property with trails and trees and our dogs really enjoyed it. I highly recommend Victoria, it was our second booking with her and we are very satisfied with her pet sitting services.”

“Krista was the best!! Thorough updates every visit and I could tell she spent the entire 30 minutes with our babies. We will be booking her again for future weekends away!!”
About: The last year I've been cat sitting for my neighbor. She has 7 total, one of them being an older three legged cat. Because of my flexibility, I've been very reliable with when I'm able to cat sit, as well as gaining a lot of experience in general due to how frequent it is.
About: Started using this site back in high school then my favorite dog I sat for passed away so I stopped for a little well now I'm back and am wanting to care for as many pets as I can!

I know i miss my baby while I'm away so i will always send pictures of your babies to you 🥰
“I booked Leilani and Jessie for the first time over thanksgiving. They came over a few days before to meet Layla and get familiar with the house. Layla is shy and they were so sweet and calm with her. I felt at ease knowing they would be checking in on her. I could tell they really know animals. By the end of the trip Layla was warming up to them nicely. I’ll definitely rebook the next time we go out of town!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a kid, and I have experience with taking care of many different breeds, young and old. I love animals and will do everything I can to make yours comfortable and happy. Work is currently slow, so I have the time to give your pets all the attention they need. I am available anytime throughout the week and most weekends. I have two friendly dogs that would love to keep yours company. I do not have a fenced yard, but walk them on my private lane often, and take them to the dog park. My pets get fed twice a day, but I can feed yours as often as you’d like - they also have some treat throughout the day.
About: I’ve always had pets as long as I can remember! And that’s a long time!! My husband and I have years and years of experience caring for all types of animals! From cats to bunnies, fish and hermit crabs and always dogs!! Even a bearded dragon! Right now, we have two Fox Red Labs, two outside cats, fish, and a bearded dragon… and chickens. We just raised 7 Fox Red Lab puppies as well! We have almost 4 acres for the dogs to run and have fun and we have a large fenced in play yard. As a pet mom myself, I understand how hard it is to leave your fur babies in someone else’s care! I know how hard it is to leave them! We’ve used a couple of sitters thru Rover and have had a great experience. I would be honored to be entrusted to care for your four legged family member! I am a stay at home mom, able to give lots of attention to you fur baby! They will get lots of love and will always have access to drinking water. When I do need to run an errand the pups will be crated. Our dogs love to go outside so it’s not unusual for them to go out every two hours or so which provides ample time for potty breaks and exercise throughout the day. Our whole yard is not fenced in but we do have a large fenced in play yard with plenty of room to run! I will use a leash to keep your pup safe outside of the play yard and they will never be outside unattended. We can introduce our dogs slowly, one at a time or however you are most comfortable. I prefer to have a meet and greet before booking so we make sure we’re a good match and so your pup can meet ours ahead of time.
About: I’m Alex and I currently have one pitbull so I am A 24/7 dog mom! I love hiking and being out in nature. I have a high energy personality that is perfect for wearing any pup out. Growing up my parents owned dogs of all sizes and personalities (Dalmatian, Akitas, border collie, and jack russel) I love the Lower Allen dog park and would gladly take any dogs there with permission! My previous rescue pit had an abusive past which sadly caused some behavioral issues. Due to that I am more than comfortable watching any dogs that may be a little rough around the edges. I have no problem giving any daily medication needed. I’m just a fun loving dog owner who would love to give your dog wonderful care and attention! I am a stay at home mom so my days are pretty open. I also have access to flexible free child care through grandparents so I don’t have to have my child with me during any dog visits or stays. This allows me to be able to work with your needs! I’m available for caring overnight in your home where your pup is most comfortable! Lots of attention and if they’re allowed in the bed or on the couch they’ll be right there next to me. I am not currently available to be hosting animals at my own home.
About: I love taking dogs to the lake to play in the water, and walk along the beach. I don’t have a fenced in yard but it is big. I also have a horse field behind my house that I have permission to take animals in and play fetch in the field. My daughter loves animals and is very attentive to them and there needs. She is very careful when it comes to small dogs. I have a clean and smoke free home. I love sending pictures while your animals are in my care that way you know they are okay. They will get lots of interaction and love. I am such an animal lover. I also help with potty training. I can’t wait to meet new dogs. I hope to hear from you guys soon. Alllison Stoner
About: I have more than twenty-five years of experience taking care of many pets. I have cared for several pets of my own my entire life! My schedule is pretty flexible right now. I am available most mornings, afternoons, and some evenings! I should be able to work with you on a good check-in schedule for your pets! I currently have three dogs of my own that I take good care of every day and night. I know our fur babies need lots of love, pets, care, exercise and treats of course!!
About: I’ve been pet sitting/farm sitting on a part-time basis for the last five years. This has now become full-time for me, and I really enjoy working with different pets of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with rabbits, horses, dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. I also am skilled in bathing, cleaning ears, and clipping nails for dogs and cats. Taking care of your pets is my full-time passion. This gives me all the time and the ability to provide individualized care to all animals in the household. I will take care of your pets in your home according to your preferences, while always respecting your personal space and the well-being of your furry companions.
About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care. I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible. Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.
About: I have had a passion for animals ever since I was a young child. My dream would be to run my own dog kennel. Ive had animals my whole life. One of my other part time jobs is working at a boarding kennel. I bathe them, clean their kennels and take them out. As well as feeding them. I’m a very flexible person and I’m just doing this on the side. I do work full time abd part time so I may not always be available. But, I would love to eventually be able to do dog sitting and animal care permanently. I’m very good with animals! You can trust me around your dogs or cats!! All animals have a special place in my heart. And, you can trust that your animals are in good care while you’re away.

“Heinz had SO much fun with Angela and her family! Angela was great to watch him last minute and we were so happy that she did! He is still all puppy, with lots of playful energy, and he was exhausted after a fun day with Angela! So much so he fell asleep on the way home. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for doggie sitting needs!”
“David is very patient and caring, great petsitter for your dog, He listens to your detailed instructions for doggie daycare and I'm sure for boarding as well. My Jovie got lots of exercise in fenced in backyard and very nice neighborhood with sidewalks to walk your dog during the day and evening. I had no worries leaving him at his house, sent me pictures and kept me up-to-date on everything.”
“Cheryl made me feel at ease about leaving my very anxious baby. Her system to introducing the dogs really put my mind at ease, and she sent me pictures while we were out to let me know my pup was okay. I would recommend her. Thank you Cheryl!”
“Elizabeth was very responsive to my last minute request for daycare. I could tell Biscuit had a nice time and loved Elizabeth! I appreciated the pictures especially since this was my time using Rover, and Elizabeth. Super convenient!”
“Camilla was a wonderful host and took good care of pocket beagle as we toured around Gettysburg for the day. She kept us well informed with pictures and texts on how he was doing and was super attentive to his needs. Highly recommend her to watch your baby.”
“This was the first time using Josie as a sitter. I was nervous about leaving Charli with someone that I had never met before. However, after reading her other reviews my worries lessened. Josie kept me posted throughout the day with notes and pictures which also lessened the anxiety. I hope to be using Josie as a sitter again in the near future.”
“Wonderful experience for us and for Gus The Wonder Dog. We indicated at booking we would drop him off between 9 and 9:30 am and pick him up between 4 and 4:30 pm. We discovered before we dropped him off the first morning that our group would be eating dinner about 3 miles from the sitter's home. To pick him up at 4:30, return him to the B&B, and then drive back to dinner venue would have added about 15 - 18 miles of driving in somewhat heavy traffic. I asked if we could pick him up after dinner”
“Courtney was an awesome dog sitter. I felt when I left Lily with her that she was going to do just fine and she did. Lily had a wonderful time and enjoyed the day with her 2 wonderful kids!!”
About: I have a wide variety of experience with all sorts of animals. I’ve had large and small dogs, cats, rodents, amphibians, and lizards, I even had a pot belly pig, sheep & duck as a child. I also volunteered at a local vet when I was a teenager and gained a lot of hands on experience caring for many types of animals! I’m a stay at home mlm and I homeschool my two teenage daughters. They absolutely adore animals as well. I feel this will allow me to spend a lot of one on one time with your pet. Your fur baby will be well cared for and interacted with while they’re here! (Please note that Rover doesn’t consider my children’s ages to count towards, “children being present in our home.” However, I think this information should be available to those who choose to put their pets in my care. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby to run! I also have separate family room in my house where our dogs sleep at night, and that is where I would put crates if they need to be crated at any time.
“I think Bethany’s dog is my pup’s new BFF! Bethany is very welcoming, and has a lovely home that’s super dog-friendly. Communication was effortless; she responded right away and sent us photo and video updates throughout the day. Our girl came home that evening happy and exhausted!”
“From the beginning of setting up the appointment to the end Of Caydes’ visit. Everything was fantastic! Kayla was very sweet, and you can tell how much she loves animals! Cayde had so much fun staying with her and her pup! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our baby!!”
“If you are in the Carlisle, PA, area, please consider using Victoria C. and her family as your sitter. It was only a half a day stay but we were able to do a meet and greet before the actual date. She was very attentive and sent pictures to us showing what he was doing. We could tell by Blaze's body language he was happy with his stay. They walked him several times in their backyard and was able to get him to play ball with them. Next time we are in town we will use them again, we highly recommend them.”
“Ashley was incredible with my dog and super flexible. We unfortunately dealt with flight delays/cancelations and it was a relief knowing someone was there and willing to not only adapt to changes but genuinely cared about our dogs wellbeing. She sent me photos everyday and regularly corresponded with me which made me feel way more comfortable. 10/10 definitely recommend and will use again in the future.”
About: If you bring your baby to me you are guaranteed that he or she will be loved like you love them! I am committed to making them feel at home and I have a big yard where they can enjoy play time whenever they want! I will walk them because they too need fresh air and they will also get many treats! Your dog is free to go and explore anywhere at my house. I have a small Pomeranian and she is kind and loves playing with all dogs! I love all types of dogs from the smallest to the biggest one! I will give all the love they need in your absence and you can be more than welcome to check up on them any time you want especially if you’re going to be away for long. I guarantee that your baby will be safe with me!

About: My entire life pretty much I've grown up around animals! I've had different rodent, and currently have 2 cats. The last 10ish years my family and I have cat/dog sat for multiple family members and friends. The last year I've cat sat for my neighbor multiple times. As far as regular work goes, I'm only doing part-time due to the limit on how many hours are being given. I'm also not enrolled in school, so my schedule has more than enough time to fit in some extra pet care. I have experience with giving medication (mostly pills), so if your fur baby has meds that are needed to be given, I'm more than willing. Like a lot of animals, I enjoy basking in the sun. So, taking your animals on long walks isn't an issue either. Your animals needs are my priority.
“We were super impressed with Leilani and the way she cared for our dog, Doc. She took him out on a sweltering hot day but gave him plenty of time to do his business and then showered him with attention inside where it was cool. All the while she kept us updated and sent pics and a note when she was finished. Definitely recommend!”

About: I grew up on a farm and cared for every animal you can think of, from bottle feeding goats to helping deliver babies. Friends, family and coworkers have relied on me to care for their pets while away or during work hours. I have lots of availability so I'm able to check in on your pet during the day or care for them while you're away for longer time periods. I have lots of availability for short check ins, walks, day care, over night or long term care in your home. I just moved to PA from the Midwest and have cared for pets and animals my whole life. I'm at your service to care for your fur baby in whatever capacity you need. From short check ins or walks during the day to over night care. I'm very dependable, caring and will honor you specific needs.
About: I've always had pets growing up where I learned to love & train them. I've also had several litters. I am certified in Animal First Aid and will absolutely love them like my very own!!

I will keep your babies happy, exercised and spoiled. I'm available for walks, overnights or drop-ins. I have an acre of land so they have plenty of room to run, we go on adventures thru the woods.

About: I have always had dogs and cats and love animals sometimes more than people, LOL! I have retired from my business career and now getting to enjoy caring for your furry children. I am happy to walk your dogs and do whatever you need for them to be comfortable while you are away. I am currently working full time but will be retiring soon. At this time, I will be available to care for your furry friends on the weekends but in the coming year will also be available throughout the week. I am a trustworthy, reliable person and always put my best effort into everything I do! I look forward to caring for your furry friend!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 5. My brother was very active in the dog community and often took me with him. I took care of his Rotwilliers whenever he vacationed and had several dogs of my own. I have been a dog sitter for friends and family my whole life and have taken care of dogs for my nanny families in the past! I am currently a part-time nanny, but fit in dog care in my off time! I only work two full days a week, Monday and Thursday, so I have plenty of time for my puppy friends! I love to help out other dog parents and want to make dog care my full-time job. When caring for a dog in another home, I can easily follow instructions you leave for me. I can walk the dogs on a leash, take them to dog parks, or play with them in my own yard. If a dog has to come home with me, I have a large home with plenty of yard for them to run and play in. I have small crates at my own home if needed. I have experience with giving dogs medication due to my own senior dogs and my French bulldog who has had allergy issues.

About: I am an absolute animal lover! I have had dogs, birds, fish, a cat, bunnies, mice, lizards, guinea pig, and hamsters! I have been around animals since I was probably about 4 or 5 years old. My grandpa gave me my very first dog (a beagle named Lady) and it was love at first site. Ever since, I have always had a dog! I currently have an almost 12 year old staffy mix named Stoli and 12 fish (mixed kinds). Stoli and I always enjoy a good run or hike or trip to the lake for a swim. I got her when I was working at an animal hospital back in Jersey.She is my best friend and I know I will car for another persons pet(s) the same way I look out for my own! After working at the animal hospital I enrolled in school to become a Certified Dog Trainer, which I completed several years ago. I then started volunteering at a local animal shelter where I helped work with the dogs before getting adopted and sometimes after. Currently my schedule is pretty flexible which allows me to be available at different times throughout the day. I do have a young daughter that I take care of during the day as well. I am unable to care for animals in my home because my dog does not get along with others. However I am able to follow your instructions for care in your home.

“Chewie enjoyed his 8 day stay with Sowmya. This was our second time using her and will use again in the future. Pictures to keep in touch and flexible with pick up arrangements. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time I used a pet sitting service and it was a very positive experience. Elizabeth was great with my dogs. Her communication before and during their stay was fantastic, with pics and videos! I was able to enjoy and relax during my vacation because I knew my dogs were going to be well cared for.”
“Heather and her family greeted our dogs with loving, open arms. They have a lovely home with a farm which allowed the dogs to be entertained from their playpen with chickens and ducks. Our dogs are completely happy with no problems while they were visiting Heather and Family. Heather is great at communication and gets back to you right away. We asked for pictures and Heather sent lots of pictures to comfort us knowing our girls were safe and well loved.”
“Diana took amazing care of our girl! Who is VERY high energy and loves to play. She sent us videos every day of them playing fetch and/or on walks in the fields. We love that Diana is comfortable and familiar with using an e collar and can have Bella off leash. Bella can’t wait to go back! 🥰”
“Lauren and Doug were wonderful to our girl. It seemed like she had just as fun of a vacation as we did. They took such great care of her and communicated with us thoroughly. We got numerous pictures and videos daily. We will use them again when we need a sitter for our girl.”
“Flurry had an amazing time staying with Pam and Mike. She loved all the other dogs and they were so great sending pictures and even videos of her stay with them.”
“Patricia was amazing! She sent pictures, loved my dogs, took them on walks and to a near by park, and sent me updates. She was also very flexible for me. We were an hour late to drop off due to traffic and we were able to pick them up on a Sunday at 4:30pm instead of 7pm, and Patricia was super helpful.”
“I am so very pleased with Cheryl and her furry family. Cheryl was very meticulous about assessing my dogs needs and care right from the start. My dog is quite skidish about new dogs, new environments and new people. This was no challenge for Cheryl. She was able to ease my dogs insecurities right away and allowed her 2 dogs time to meet our little girl on her terms and very cautiously. Cheryl was flexible with my drop off and pick up times and communicated with me throughout the entire stay with updates and photos. She also provided my dog with medications for her skin and gave us great feedback on how I may be able to better care for her allergies. Cheryl is a very responsible dog owner and it certainly carries into her ability to care for my dog as well. My dog was happy and stress free while in Cheryl's care and I will definitely be using her again! If you're looking for a caretaker that will provide top notch care and treat your furry companion with the love and respect they deserve, then look no further and reach out to Cheryl.”
“Jack took great care of Tazzabelle. He updated me daily with pictures. She seems happy when we picked her up. Would not hesitate to leave Tazzabelle with him again.”
“Rachel and her family are so loving and warm bunch. They were absolutely wonderful with our golden Kobe. She was great about communicating when needed and sent us pics daily. He had a blast with Rachel’s kids and she even took Kobe on walks which was so important to us. Thank you Rachel!”
“Jacob was the absolute best with Benji. Our regular sitter was out of town and on short notice, Jacob saved the weekend for us. Right away from drop-off I had a sense of calm and peace with Jacob, his pets, and his beautiful backyard. Jacob sent pictures while away that showed Benji fitting right in with his new friends. I'll gladly use Jacob's services again and he really helped put our mind at ease!”
“Carrie is an excellent communicator and very thoughtful. We got daily pics of our girls that made us laugh and feel happy for them that they were at camp Carrie. She clearly loves animals and takes great care of them.”
“Oleg was wonderful to work with. He was responsive and took our dogs last minute when we had to go out of town for a funeral. Our pups had so much fun with his family and his lab. They both came home exhausted from lots of play time! We will definitely use Oleg’s services again.”
“Holly was amazing with my girl ...she sent so many updates / pictures& hand fed my dog when she was nervous. Icing on top was that my dog was able to play with her dog who was just as amazing. 1000% recommend Holly to watch your dog.”
“Kathy was great!! We loved waking up to the morning updates of how our Skye was doing. Highly recommend and we will definitely be returning in the future!”
