“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!”
“Amanda was super accommodating and sweet. Her property is beautiful and our pup seemed to be fascinated with the other animals she has on her farm. He was a tired boy when we picked up him up. Strongly recommend using her, and we will absolutely be a repeat customer if we come back this way on our travels.”
“We are always glad to have Reese spend time with Bobbi and family. He receives impeccable care with every stay! We are truly blessed to have such a thoughtful caregiver for our Reese!”
“Anna was the perfect match for our dog. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous. Anna communicated throughout the entire stay and kept us updated with pictures. Our pup was loved and cared for as if she was part of Anna’s family. We are so thankful for Anna and would recommend for others.”
“I felt very good about the care I was receiving from videos and pictures. I felt max was in good hands and it showed a very well organised house with a fenced in yard in the back. I will definitely use him again. Thanks again”
“Just amazing! I'm a very anxious person, Kathy put me so at ease. She takes wonderful notes of each pet and is very meticulous with how she cares for your pet. She very much treats them as if they where her own. I cant wait for my pup to go back, she can't as well!”
“Teresa is great!! She took care of our two dogs on two different occasions and I had no worries. She sent me pictures and shared how they were doing. I would definitely leave my two babies in her care in the future.”
“Amanda took excellent care of my pup, which is a challenging thing to do with his medication requirements. Webster was comfortable at Amanda's place and had a good time with her dog. I recommend Amanda and will use her services again.”
“Goose was so happy after his overnight stay with Oleg! He was able to play and get lots of love at his house. Oleg was responsive and flexible with us to make it a pleasant experience for us just as much as it was for Goose!”
“Her name suits her well. She was an angel to my moochi. She was very prompt with the responses as well as updating me of moochi is doing. She sends me photos which i think is really nice. When i went to pick him up, he was very energetic and i could tell that he enjoyed his stay. I would highly recommend angel.”
About: I have owned a dog since I was 12 and I have always treated my dogs as though they were my best friend. Most recently I have the luxury to take my dogs to work since I own a business doing hair, photography and modeling. I decided to extend my love to babysitting dogs. I have fostered a puppy and fell in love with how I made a difference in such a short period. I have two daughters that bring friends home all the time which gives lots of personal interaction. My backyard is an oasis for any dog wishing to play in a pool or run wild in a fenced yard. Your dogs will be around people and have my mini-doodle to play with. Ideal Fit for My Home: I’m best suited for dogs who are comfortable in a home environment, enjoy being around people, and can settle calmly indoors. Because my home is social and interactive, I do best with dogs who are friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable around other dogs and people. To ensure the best experience for everyone, I require a meet & greet for all first-time stays. I work from home running my business, so dogs are always by my side and never left alone. They’re part of my day—greeting clients with affection, enjoying playtime in my fenced backyard oasis, and relaxing indoors as part of the family. When caring for pets, I focus on maintaining their comfort, routine, and happiness. I’m very attentive to dogs’ cues. If a dog signals they need to go out, wants attention, or needs reassurance, I respond promptly. I adjust care as needed so each dog feels safe, comfortable, and at ease in my home. For the safety of all pets and people in my home, I reserve the right to decline or discontinue care if a dog is not a safe or appropriate fit.
“Max is very excited to come stay with Rebecca. He always runs to greet her when we arrive. She is on point with sending us pictures of Max which is comforting when we are away from him. When I pick him up , he is happy and I can see he has been well cared for.”
“We were very happy with Rosa and her family. From start to finish, they were very caring and sweet. Since it was our first experience, we loved it. Our pups were in the best hands. We highly recommend trusting Rosa, you won’t regret it. Thank you so much, Rosa and family! From Tina and Cooper 🐶🐶🫶🏻❤️”
“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 :)”
“Michelle did a fantastic job with my pup. She followed all my little tips for feeding her, went on walks, made sure my dog wasn’t anxious, and made my pup feel at home. Michelle also sent pics of my pup, was very flexible for drill-off and pick-up times, and was very communicative! Would absolutely recommend!”
“Kira came in clutch after another sitter booked many months in advance cancelled last minute. This wasn’t a short stay but a 10-day booking. She took good care of Charlie and as usual, he came home super happy after his dogcation.”

“Cassidy did another stellar job house sitting for our two 2-year old kitties, Kit and Kat. She's so good, I was asking her advice about them lol. I get nervous leaving them alone and asked how long she thought they'd be ok by themselves in between when we left and when the booking started - Cassidy reassured me they'd be just fine :-). Also, Cassidy was coming back from her own vaca the same day the booking started. She gave me updates as she was nearing her home, letting me know when she'd be over to start watching the kitties. She even got here earlier than expected. She also spends quality time with them - chillin by the window as they watch the rain, playing laser, or sharing how silly they are running up and down the hallway with twist ties lol. I love how in tune she is with what they are doing. And each time she's over, they get even more comfortable and friendly with her. Cassidy also keeps the apt immaculate- the litter is always clean, water bowls filled, she respects their intricate food instructions, charges their night lights, and in general, it's very easy to see Cassidy genuinely cares. She also put our mail on the counter and kept an eye out for a package that was delivering for my job. We are sooo incredibly grateful for Cassidy and already booked her again for this October.”
“I cannot recommend Shyann enough! I had to make a last-minute booking, and they completely exceeded my expectations. Even with the short notice, they insisted on doing a meet-and-greet to make sure my dog was comfortable and that all instructions were clear—a level of professionalism and care I truly didn't expect given the tight timeline. They are reliable, incredibly sweet with my pup, and provided fantastic updates. It is such a relief to find someone so dependable and accommodating. I will absolutely be booking again!”
“Siyani provided prompt, great care for our two cats, including one who is a bit of an escape artist. We had no worries while we were away, and the kitties seemed pretty content and everything else in the house was in order. I would definitely recommend her services”
“Alyssa took amazing care of Gus! He really enjoyed seeing her every day, getting lots of play time and snuggles! She did everything perfectly and I will definitely rebook with her in the future! Great communication and photos!”
“Mathew was right on time. He was very patient and affectionate with our fur baby. Although, Bruno is a very anxious dog, Mathew made extra effort to make him comfortable. I will surely book him again.”
“Lily was wonderful! She dropped in on my kitty while I was out of town, taking great care of him and providing timely updates on how the visits went. I would book her again, and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jessica was great with our cats. The one is usually not big on people and she would come out for pictures every visit. She was very detailed in her report after each detail. Highly recommend.”
“Jyllian was absolutely amazing as my cat sitter. I was away on an extended trip and was nervous about having to leave my cat for that long. She went above and beyond with updating me and provided very detailed summaries each day along with so many pictures which showed how much love she put into caring for my cat. Not only that, but she is a vet tech so that made me feel even more comfortable in case something went wrong. She truly has the biggest heart for animals and I would very easily recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much, Jyllian!!!!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and have three of my own. They all have their unique personalities and can be incredibly silly. I know what it’s like to have cats with health issues and the importance of doing everything to make they’re okay. I promise to take care of your cat(s) like they’re my own and hopefully become they’re friend
“This was my first pet sitter booking ever and I was a little nervous about it. Tess made me feel at ease and confident that my kitties would be well taken care of over the holidays. One kitty loved her immediately while the other had to warm up to her. By the end of the drop-in visits he was his usual, loving and purring self. Tess followed my instructions and was respectful of my property while I was away. She also picked up an extra day on short notice. I will book a pet sitter for all of my time away from home, and I wouldn't hesitate to book Tess again”
“Once again, such wonderfully loving care for my cat :) I have never had such piece of mind! Brandy is thorough, consistent, and very patient. I feel more than comfortable leaving my animals in her care.”
About: I'm a newer cat owner! I fostered 4 week old kittens for 4 months before they were adopted to a loving family. We ended up keeping one cat, named Spunky! He's a wonderful cat and enjoy him very much!
“Quinn was very caring and did her best to make our kitty warm up to her. In the end she was successful. She did a wonderful job of making our kitty happy and fed well communication was great as well”
“So grateful I was able to book Beth when last minute travel plans popped up. She was wonderful coming to do drop in visits for my kitties over a very hot and holiday weekend. It really eased my anxiety of being away from them knowing that Beth was checking in on them and giving them some attention! She sent great updates, made sure they had food fresh water and clean boxes and spent time playing with them sending pictures that really made my day! My cats must have loved her as all 3 came out to see her each visit and two of them can be shy - but not this time! Thank you Beth! Will book again (hopefully more in advance) when I am next away:)”
“Michael is a very reliable petsitter and took such great care of our two cats during an 8-day trip. He responded quickly and made sure to send updates after his visits with lots of pictures of our babies. He made it a priority to get to know our cats and their behaviors and preferences prior to our trip. We will certainly use Michael’s services again in the future!”
“Clara has helped us out so many times with both of our pups. My girls absolutely loved her and got so excited to see her. My puppy had tummy issues and had an accident in her crate which got on herself, Clara was more then willing to give her a bath and clean out her crate so my pup wouldn’t have to sit in it all day! She’s amazing with communication and will respond quickly when she’s able too! I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone to truly care about your animal while you’re gone!!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats for 16+ years, my dog for 7 years and counting, and I briefly worked at Canine Clubhouse for almost 2 months. I am available for dog sitting, doggy daycare, and cat sitting since I am a stay at home mom to my 2 amazing boys and I have 1 dog and 2 cats. At home my cats are grazers and eat when they want to and my dog gets fed twice a day with a mix of dry and wet food and has to be let outside on a leash because our backyard is not currently fenced in.
“Dawn took wonderful care of our dog while we stopped at Hershey Park in the middle of a road trip. She was a great communicator, responsive, and was able to be flexible to our pick up and drop off times. Our dog had a playmate, some good human snuggles, and a walk. He loved his day at Dawn’s!”
“Warren, Kelly, and the kids are absolutely amazing! They welcomed my dog into their home with open arms and treated her as their own. We had some delays and they graciously accommodated, which I really really appreciate! If I will definitely use them when we come back in the future. 10 out of 10 recommend!”

If your animals are staying in our home, they’ll have access to a spacious yard where dogs can play and run freely.

We also offer house sitting services; however, please note that we are not available for overnight stays at this time. We have a large, open yard where dogs can play and get plenty of exercise, as well as a designated playpen area in our basement for indoor fun and safety. If we’re caring for your pets in your home, we’re happy to follow any specific guidelines or routines you provide to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.

“Amanda was fantastic! She was quick to reply to my messages and questions and was clear that my dog was very relaxed and happy (and exhausted...clearly they played a lot!) when I picked her up!”

About: I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I provide a calm, attentive home environment where pets are treated like family and receive plenty of love, playtime, and regular walks. I share my home with cats, so dogs must be comfortable around them. My cats are well-adjusted and do well with dogs, but they may choose to hide around higher-energy pups. They are not comfortable being chased or cornered, so I only accept dogs that are respectful of their space. I have experience with a wide range of breeds and sizes, from small dogs to large breeds, as well as pets with different temperaments. I’m also experienced with special needs pets and administering medications, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine and behavior. I provide consistent supervision and personalized care to ensure a safe, low-stress environment for everyone in my home. You can also expect regular updates with photos, so you always feel connected and reassured while your pet is in my care. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. I closely follow each pet’s established routine: feeding, walks, and any special care, to create a familiar, low-stress environment. I provide care in a calm, structured home environment and only accept dogs from one family at a time. This allows for a lower-stress stay and ensures your dog receives my full attention and personalized care. Each dog’s routine is followed as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions. I provide frequent walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Dogs are not crated unless requested by the owner to maintain their normal routine. For everyone’s safety and comfort, dogs must be house-trained, cat-friendly, and able to coexist respectfully in a home environment. I offer Meet & Greets for all new clients so we can ensure a good fit for everyone. Additionally, my experience working on Rover’s Trust & Safety team has given me a strong understanding of pet behavior, risk awareness, and best practices in providing safe, reliable care.
“Danette was such a sweetheart and took care of my Dexter last minute when we decided to take a last minute trip to Hershey Park. She is so knowledgeable and patient and treated Dexter like one of her own. Dexter came home worn out from a long day of play which is just what he needed to get his mind off of his “pawrents” being gone for the day. If we lived in the area, I would use her every time!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Grantville
“We needed some help to cover when our usual dog walker went of town for a bit. Cassidy has been great with our pup! She's very professional, always arrives when she says she will, rain or shine. We get pictures and updates and in general she's great with communication.”
“Paula was the answer to everything I needed! We have a new puppy who has lots of energy but still needs a lot of TLC. Paula was our perfect fit! She naturally interacts without little guy in a way that’s so reassuring. She asked all the right questions and is very communicative. She is clearly very experienced! I felt so at ease knowing she was caring for our little guy while we were away. She is creative with her walks, helped us train our puppy, and even gave us some very helpful feedback that helped our puppy acclimate to his new surroundings. I’d recommend Paula to anyone. Thank you for a great experience!”
“Zachary was great with my dogs! They’re both around 70 pounds and can be a little crazy but he was calm and confident and I felt super comfortable with them going on walks with him. They’ve been needing some time apart and some interaction with other people and I’m so glad I found Zachary because he’s perfect for them!”
“Siyani is absolutely AMAZING! My rescued pup is a reactive dog, and it’s usually very difficult for him to warm up to new people,!especially when it comes to walks or being cared for by someone new. But with Siyani, he felt safe right away!! She has such a calm, kind energy that made Toby comfortable and confident, which is something I honestly didn’t think I would find outside of our family. Finding someone who can handle a rescue pup with patience and love is rare, and Siyani has completely earned my trust. This experience gave me the peace of mind I needed, and now I know I’ve found my go-to sitter for Toby, not only for dog walks but also for when I travel. I couldn’t recommend her enough!!”
“Matthew did a fantastic job taking care of our Boston Terrier while we were gone for over a week. He visited our home twice a day for feeding, walking, and playing and gave frequent updates. We felt so much more at ease leaving our dog at home while we traveled thanks to Matthew. We will use him again.”

If asked I also offer training aka reviewing already learned commands, dog enrichment games (such as snuffle matts), and daily brushouts. Doggy Daycare: I like to start each day with a mile walk all together. Then one on one playtime with my pup(s), if wanted. If you want your pup to have doggy playtime, they will have “cool down” times throughout the day. If a repeat client I offer a free bath every 3rd completed daycare day and free nail clipping/dremmel once a month (as needed), if dog allows. Dog Walking: I provide treats and will reward the dog with a treat when not pulling, so we can walk more safely and efficiently. If I notice the dog’s leash is connected to a collar or harness that is too loose, I may ask if I may tighten it. I do not feel comfortable walking dogs with items that they can easily slip, and may decline an offer, if one is not willing to tighten it. I want all the dogs I walk to be completely safe and not be able to slip out and run. Rates do not go up if dog pulls, is reactive, or dog/ stranger aggressive.

“Amanda was super accommodating and sweet. Her property is beautiful and our pup seemed to be fascinated with the other animals she has on her farm. He was a tired boy when we picked up him up. Strongly recommend using her, and we will absolutely be a repeat customer if we come back this way on our travels.”
“Anna was the perfect match for our dog. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous. Anna communicated throughout the entire stay and kept us updated with pictures. Our pup was loved and cared for as if she was part of Anna’s family. We are so thankful for Anna and would recommend for others.”
“I felt very good about the care I was receiving from videos and pictures. I felt max was in good hands and it showed a very well organised house with a fenced in yard in the back. I will definitely use him again. Thanks again”
“Just amazing! I'm a very anxious person, Kathy put me so at ease. She takes wonderful notes of each pet and is very meticulous with how she cares for your pet. She very much treats them as if they where her own. I cant wait for my pup to go back, she can't as well!”
“Amanda took excellent care of my pup, which is a challenging thing to do with his medication requirements. Webster was comfortable at Amanda's place and had a good time with her dog. I recommend Amanda and will use her services again.”
“Goose was so happy after his overnight stay with Oleg! He was able to play and get lots of love at his house. Oleg was responsive and flexible with us to make it a pleasant experience for us just as much as it was for Goose!”
“Kira came in clutch after another sitter booked many months in advance cancelled last minute. This wasn’t a short stay but a 10-day booking. She took good care of Charlie and as usual, he came home super happy after his dogcation.”
About: I've been pet sitting since i was 13, I am currently 19 with a dog and cat of my own! I've taken care of seniors as-well as puppies. I've potty trained, taught tricks, and have done special care when needed. I love to go on long hikes and bring my dog with me! I go on walks about 3 times a day, as my dog is very active. Feel free to ask me questions! I would love to watch your pup. :) I'm available for pet sitting any day of the week at any times! I can handle seniors aswell as active dogs. I would love to spend time with your pup. I have one super friendly dog that loves to play and gets along great with cats. I go on 3 walks a day with my pup. She is very active and friendly. Your pup will be able to relax and also get the outside time they need. I have a big fenced in backyard perfect for running around and playing.
“They treated my dog like family! I got pictures every day and a full report when I picked her up. I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and her family. I would 100% recommend Sowmya and will come back to her whenever I need boarding again!”

“Steffany and Juan were fantastic! They ensured our dogs were compatible with their dogs prior to our vacation, and kept consistent communication. Loved the pictures they sent of our babies! We would happily leave our dogs with them again!”
“Rodger did great with our two one-year-old cats. He was super patient and understanding when one of them took longer to open up. Super responsive and consistent with sending updates. Will definitely rebook in the future!”

“This was my first time leaving my 8yo pitbull lab mix Maui Wowie with a non-family member and it went off without a hitch! Sandra has a fantastic rural property that any dog will love. Maui LOVED hanging outside and the fun day-to-day activities Sandra and her family provided. Sandra treated my dog just like family.”
“Pam and Michael took such good care of Mojo. They sent pictures and videos and made a point to touch base with me letting me know how things were going. I could tell they really made a home away from home for our pup which put me at ease. Mojo was happy and healthy and for that I’m grateful. Thank you for your hospitality and care for Mojo!”
“Michael went above and beyond taking care of our dog when we were away on vacation. He got sick the night before we dropped him off. We told Michael about it when we arrived and he was more than willing to take care of him. Turns out that our dog had a what appeared to be a partial blockage. Michael without hesitation was willing to take him to our vet to be diagnosed. He then faithfully gave him his medication all while communicating everything with us. We are more than grateful. Thank you Michael!”
“Very welcoming & made my fur baby feel right at home! Communication was prompt and received updates with photos. Above & beyond service. Will definitely book again and refer to others. Thank you!”
“Laura went above and beyond to make us, and our nervous girl, feel comfortable. She sends updates frequently which I really appreciate. We just did a "trial run" with Laura and will be back next month for our real stay!”
“Amy and Patrick took wonderful care of our 7 month old pup. They have great communication, love for animals and are kind and wonderful people. Very highly recommended. Thanks for taking the best care of our puppy so we could have a great stress free vacation knowing she was well loved!! Thanks for the daily updates as well!!”
