About: Comfortable working with a variety of animals, and their individual personalities and needs. I’ve been around animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, bunnies, and reptiles. Worked with dogs in the military, and personally had a special needs working line German Shepherd. Have gone through puppy training, advanced obedience, and health condition management. I work a remote part time job (all from laptop) that does not have a restricted time required. Pet Sitting is the priority on the days it is scheduled, and can be available for short or extended periods (days, 24/7). As I watch overnight/day or pop in, my goal is to make your pet feel truly at home, and put you at ease while away. Whatever structure or routine you outline your pet is used to, that’s what I will follow. I am also okay to care for small house needs while sitting (ie. watering plants). My car is available if short trips to a park are needed.
About: My first pet was a cat, I currently own three of my own. I always thought I was a dog person, until I worked at a Vet office and quickly became a cat person! I love all personalities of cats, have administered medications, followed feeding schedules and cared for them including cleaning the litter box.
About: I’ve taken care of childhood dogs since I was 12. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, and playing with all sorts of animals growing up. I would be able to care for pets during the weekends and after 430pm weekdays. It is a great way not only to bond with animals but also get my daily exercise in. In a clients home, I would be able to feed the dog, play with it, and take it on walks like it was my own animal. For walking, I would make sure they enjoyed themselves, and add some play time in as well to make it more rewarding for the animal.
About: I’ve been lucky enough to spend many years of my life living with cats. I’ve come to learn no two cats are the same, every cat has their own unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve cared for kittens, senior cats, and cats with certain medical, dietary, and behavioral needs while pet sitting for family, friends, coworkers, and employers. I’ve also volunteered with shelter cats, helping socialize them through play and companionship. My husband and I share our home with two beloved cats: a tabby named June and a calico named Appa. There personalities and needs could not be more different, especially when we are gone and there is a pet sitter in our place. I am familiar with the stress of trusting someone to care for your cats in your absence, and to address the unique needs of each cat. I provide patient, attentive care while respecting each cat’s individual personality, routines, boundaries and comfort level. My goal is to care for your cat the way I would want my own cats cared for—with genuine affection and attention to detail. I also do my best to ensure there are no pet messes left behind for pet parents to clean up.
About: I've had pets all my life and can't imagine my world without cats and dogs! Play time and walks with my dog are the best time of day! I'd love to help out with walks or drop-ins to make sure your fur baby feels the love ❤️. During the school year, I'm available some evenings and most weekends. In the summer, my schedule opens up a lot! I'm available most days June-August. I visit client's homes and can do a play session, feed, water, fetch, extra pets, etc. I can also do walks - 30 or 60 minutes!
About: Alright the time has finally come!! 🐾 We have decided on a house and we will be moving hopefully by June or July (exact date TBD). I wanted to give you all a heads up since I've been trying to give you plenty of notice. Should I see your pup again before our move, I will be bringing them over to our new lot to explore so they can get familiar with the scents and sights. I'll be doing this with Luigi too! We will only be moving exactly four minutes away (kinda crazy I know haha) so we'll easily be able to help all visiting pups prepare as well. It doesn't seem like a big difference to us humans, but this is a GINORMOUS change for our fur babies! Also wanted to remind everyone that after my birthday in October, we will be heading down to Florida for the winter! More on scheduling for that as it gets closer. Lastly, I want to give some transparency for you paw parents on my expectations going forward. I know you're used to seeing LOTS AND LOTS of updates all throughout the day. Before I explain the change, I want to explain the reason for it, because you actually want this too. We've all heard the phrase ‘you can't fill anyone else's cup if yours is empty' and 'there's only so much time in one day.' All the pups (including Luigi) are always my top priority. With all these changes happening, plus my Canine Behavior Consultant class load getting a bit heavier, these things drain my battery and brain power. If I'm not taking care of myself, I cannot show up as my best self for the pups and they deserve THE BEST parts of me! This may or may not come as a surprise, but I'm actually quite introverted, so I recharge my energy in quiet moments. Honestly it's a big reason I love the pups so much body language and energy speaks louder than words in the doggy world. So what's changing? I will be taking more quiet days, and I'll take them as my body and brain tell me I need them. But no matter what, whether I'm sending updates with words or not, you will still receive pictures EVERY DAY. This part is NOT changing!! Thank you all for trusting me with your pups!! I'm so excited for this next chapter and will keep you posted as things come together! ❤️ BEFORE YOU BOOK PLEASE READ THIS ❤️ For stays longer than four days and for holidays the rate is higher and I want to explain why. This is not a nine to five job. It is a twenty four seven commitment. Most visiting dogs cannot be left alone at all, and because of that I miss a lot. I skip family events. I rearrange appointments. I lose sleep when dogs are anxious or cannot settle their first night. I stay up if someone is vomiting from nerves. I cancel plans when a dog needs more support than expected. I spend weekends inside when other people are out living life because a pup needs constant supervision. I put your dogs above everything else in my personal life, including my own family at times. I only take one family pack at a time. Your dogs get my full focus and a safe space without the chaos that comes from mixing multiple families. I take them on real hikes, give them real enrichment, and use high quality human grade treats because visiting dogs need both movement and mental work to settle in a new place. I even go as far as renting out private land for dogs who are leash reactive or for pups who need a huge fenced in area with tons of acres to burn off anxiety and energy in a safe way. I share the smiling pictures and the fun adventures, but there is a lot that happens behind the scenes to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and stable. This level of care takes real time, real sacrifice, and real dedication, and that is why I am firm in my pricing. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and honestly… they’ve shaped a huge part of who I am. I live with my Italian Greyhound pretty much 24/7 (he has separation anxiety and I wouldn’t have it any other way), so I’m very used to the “velcro dog” lifestyle. Because of him, I’m super tuned into the little things.. their routines, their quirks, their sensitivities, and all the ways they try to communicate. I also grew up with Dobermans, so I’m no stranger to big, smart, emotional dogs who need confidence, structure, and someone who actually pays attention. That upbringing taught me patience, consistency, and to always advocate for the dog in front of me. I’ve had all sorts of animals in my life..even my two skinny pigs who recently crossed the rainbow bridge. They were tiny, but trust me, they had huge personalities and fit right in with visiting pups. Between my own dogs, my extended family’s dogs, and the endless stream of personalities I meet through boarding, I’ve gotten really comfortable reading different temperaments. Cuddly lap dogs, anxious shadow followers, high energy explorers, the “I’m independent but also please never leave me” types. I love them all and adjust to whatever they need. I’ve also worked with dogs who aren’t always easy around others. I take things slow, keep everyone safe, and create an environment where every dog can relax and feel secure. Safety and understanding always come first. At the end of the day, every dog who stays with me becomes part of my little crew. I’m not a kennel! They live life with me. Walks, snuggles, routines, the whole thing. Your pup will be cared for exactly how I care for my own: with intention, patience, and a lot of love. ❤️ Dog boarding is my full time thing now. No side jobs and no juggling. This is truly what I do every day. The dogs are part of everything I am doing, whether I am folding laundry, watering plants, or working out in the yard. When the weather is warm we are outside a ton getting fresh air, exploring, and just living life together. A few times a year I take short breaks to focus on my own dog Luigi, and to reset my mental health. It keeps our home running smoothly and makes sure every dog who stays with us gets a calm, consistent, happy environment. When I am at my best, your pups get the best. I know what it feels like to hand your dog to someone else and hope they truly understand them. That is why I take safety so seriously. Quality always comes before quantity in my home. I am very selective about how many dogs I accept at one time, and most of the time your dog or dogs will be the only ones staying with us. On rare occasions, this may include a dog who has already stayed with me multiple times and has an emergency come up. In those situations, all pet parents involved are notified and asked for permission before anything is confirmed. I have a fenced in yard and I am always outside with the dogs. When we drive they are buckled into a harness every single time. I carry first aid in my car and in my hiking backpack because being prepared matters. I use Apple AirTags when we leave the house so I always know where your pup is. If your dog is leash reactive or nervous I plan ahead. I research quiet trails, low traffic times, and when needed I rent private land so it is only us and there are no surprises. I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your dog is safe, understood, and protected. Trust is earned, and I show it through every decision I make.

About: I have taken care of all types of dogs especially my own and they love me and I love them. I just love them so much. I always fall in love and they fall in love with me. It never fails.

“We had a last minute need for a day care for our 13 yr old Pom. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Amy and felt completely at ease! Wonderful sitters! Got pics and texts thru the day! When we picked her up, met Patrick and he informed us how great our Pixie did! Would definitely recommend and use their services again.”
“Ashley did a fantastic job caring for my dog, while I was away for a day. Bailey was so anxious to stay with Ashley, and I know she was given excellent care and lots of attention.

“My dog Ireland warmed up to Kellyann when I dropped her off today. Ireland.has never been in a home setting before for daycare. Kellyann kept me informed throughout the day with updates and pics of Ireland. This really helped me to feel secure about my "baby girl" staying there.I would highly recommend contacting Kellyann to take care of your pet!!”
“My pup Samson and I did a meet and greet with Krista a few weeks ago and decide we liked her. He had his first daycare session with her last week and loved it so much he didn’t want to leave. What more could a dog mom ask for?”
“Our pup Josie is working on separation anxiety and Mai was willing to work with us. We were hopeful and it turned out great! It takes a special person with patience, love and a gentleness to care for animals and Mai is just. Not worrying when we are away is a really good feeling and we are very grateful that we have met Mai!”
“After spending over 6 hours with Gwendoline, my super playful German Shepherd who sleeps with one eye open at all times in the event someone tosses a tennis ball, was Knocked. Out. in the back seat of the car for most of the ride home. We were visiting the area for the day so it was a three hour trip! Suffice it to say, he had a full and busy day even though it was raining outside! A tired dog is a happy dog. Thanks, Gwendoline, for taking such loving care of my Shermie!”
“Zeus had a great day with D and all her animals. He doesn’t get to spend much time with new dogs so it was great for him. He came home very sleepy. D was very inviting and put us at ease while watching Zeus by sending pictures and updates.”

“Patience is the absolute best. She has watched our dog multiple times and he isn’t easy but she always makes it work!

Thank you again!”

I have had all types of pets my whole life and really feel like a house isn’t a home without one! Happy to work with you on your pets needs and give you ease of mind when your away.

About: For the past 18 years, I’ve been a trusted pet sitter and dog walker for family, friends, coworkers, and employers. Today, my husband and I share our home with two cats and an axolotl. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for animals of all ages and needs, including puppies and kittens, senior pets, animals recovering from illness, and those with special physical, emotional, or dietary requirements. Much of this experience comes from caring for my own pets as well as the pets of others. If I am not confident that I can meet your pets needs based on your request I will let you know promptly so you can reach out to another pet sitter who can provide the care your pet needs. I believe animals enrich our lives with unconditional love, companionship, and joy. When they’re in my care, I strive to provide that same level of love, attention, patience, and respect in return. Pet care fits easily into my current daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I am able to accommodate a variety of schedules and routines and can plan my day around the needs of each pet. This flexibility allows me to provide attentive, reliable care rather than trying to fit pet care around a busy work schedule. When I first meet a pet, I like to let them approach me at their own pace and take time to build trust. I understand that being separated from their people and meeting someone new can be stressful, so I focus on maintaining their familiar routines and creating a safe, comfortable environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, needs, routines, and favorite activities so I can provide care that helps them feel secure and happy while their family is away. I also remain attentive to potential hazards and take steps to keep pets safe in their home. I am careful to follow owners instructions for pet care and rules of the home to make sure everyone is safe. Every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel most comfortable and content. For a pets comfort, I do my best keep their routine and environment as consistent as consistent as possible in the absence of their owners.
“I’ve had such a wonderful experience with Billie! She is consistently punctual, incredibly kind, and communicates well. I always know what’s going on thanks to her thoughtful updates, and she’s great about letting me know of any scheduling changes well in advance — usually at least a week ahead, which I really appreciate. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in caring, reliable hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely wonderful with pets!”
About: I have worked at a local animal hospital as a Veterinary Assistant the past 2 years. In this role I take appointments, handle and care for both cats and dogs, and assist the other veterinary staff. I am Fear Free Certified, meaning I took a course about animal behavior and how to best reduce stress on your pets. I have lived with dogs, exotics, and small animals my entire life and would love to help you out with any and all of your animals! I have experience with both large and small breed dogs having owned them myself, and regularly walk them. I dog walk as well as pet sit both cats and dogs in the area. I volunteer at a cat shelter in my free time, giving me some extra experience with rescue cats! I have volunteered at the SPCA before, walking the shelter dogs there as well as caring for the cats. I have also volunteered at a Rabies Vaccine clinic, helping the clients and their pets. As someone who has worked with pets of all shapes, sizes, and ages, I would be happy to help with whatever you may need! I am very flexible, during the summer I am very free, and during the semester I balance Rover with my other animal-related job. Overall I can make most any day work! I am happy to perform whatever tasks needed to keep your cat or dog comfortable. I am able to take dogs out on a leash or let them go in a fenced in yard, whatever they are used to! I am happy to walk and play with them for whatever duration you would like.
“Mya is amazing with our dog. We have booked her on many different occasions and she’s always great. We were nervous having a stranger walking our little guy, but Mya is awesome. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for someone you can trust your puppy with!”
About: What sets me apart is my professional animal-handling experience and my ability to work confidently with pets of all sizes, personalities, and needs. I spent two years working as an equine veterinary assistant, where I gained hands-on experience monitoring animal health, safely handling and restraining animals, recognizing signs of illness or discomfort, and working in fast-paced situations. I also have extensive experience caring for and training my own dogs, including large breeds. I understand that every pet is unique, and I tailor my approach to fit their individual personality and comfort level. Whether your pet is a playful puppy learning good habits, a senior pet needing extra patience and care, or a dog that is nervous around new people, I focus on creating a safe, positive, and stress-free experience. I am comfortable with administering medications, reinforcing basic training and good manners during walks and visits, and providing detailed updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands. I have a lot of time on the weekends to walk dogs but I also have some time in the mornings for a dog or two monday-thursday In your home, I follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I keep up with feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medication instructions, and lots of love. I always pay attention to their body language and make sure they’re happy, relaxed, and well-cared for while you’re away.

“Rebecca was great with my dog Pepper, who is shy at first until she warms up to a new person. I got daily text messages about their morning walks along with photos. She also had some all natural treats for Pepper (after she asked if it was ok for her to have them). I would defiantly use Rebecca again while we are out of town.”

I Love dogs, and have had 3 jack Russell terriers and 2 German short haired pointers and now 2 Labrador retrievers. I want to make it easy for pet owners to do things and not have to worry about their pet. I have also been in charge of the grooming(nails,bathing etc) since I was young. I feel I can tell how/what dogs want, they call me the dog whisperer. Just want all dogs/animals to love me :) We now adopted 3 kittens in the last 6 years since they always find us. Let me care for your dog/cat while you enjoy yourself. I have had other animals, not just dogs, as I care for animals in general(fish,guinea pigs, gerbils, rabbits, birds, cats). I have always been the dependable Neighbor and was always asked to watch the neighbors animals while they were away. I know how hard it is to find a caring person to watch your pet, instead of a kennel. I also have had to give my first dog insulin shots 2xs a day, also have given her medicine daily. Also give medicine/supplements to my current pets. Let me be that person.
About: I have taken care of all types of dogs especially my own and they love me and I love them. I just love them so much. I always fall in love and they fall in love with me. It never fails. I’m currently working full time but my schedule allows me to still make time to do other things like enjoy a second job which is good I love to cuddle and play with the babies, love to feed and rub them and even talk to them. They are the best ever
About: I have 5 years of experience with pet sitting. I grew up around dogs and cats and love them both equally. I currently have 1 dog and 7 cats, due to this I can handle different animals and different situations as well! I am currently working part-time, but I currently have open availability due to it being the summer months and not having college classes at the moment. When I am taking care of pets I make sure they have enough of food and water before leaving the house, and if they need to be in a certain room of the house or in a crate I make sure they are secured in that area of the home.
About: ✨HE/HIM/THEY✨🏳️⚧️✨ I love dogs (and other fur babies) more than anything and I put in 110% to make sure your pet/dog is properly cared for. I've had 5 dogs and had a little dog named Eric (rip) and I've raised and trained him since he was a puppy. I have some vet experience and I've worked at a pet resort so I've been with all kinds of dogs imaginable and I've given them their meds and anything special they need. I've also worked with cats, rats, birds, and fish. ✨Pet CPR Certified✨ *Due to surging gas prices and an attempt to keep prices low for clients I will limit where I’m willing to drive, thank you so much!!*🐶✨ Current Pets: Ember (Shiba-Inu), Aspen (Chow-mix), Quails, 4 cats (Fig, Pancake, Cheddar, Dough)! I work full time, 8hrs at most so your pet would be out with my wife or if they’re crate trained they may be in their crate as my wife works from home, but other than that when I’m home we play in our fenced yard and go for walks! I have a fenced in yard and the pups are kennel trained so if we go out they stay in their houses til we get back. Whatever rules you have for your place, I will follow to the T ☺️
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have been caring for animals since I can remember. I watched many different breeds of dogs while in college. I’m available weekdays for walks, and weekends for dog/puppy sitting. I love all animals and have cared for many different breeds of dogs. I’m flexible so let me know what your pet needs. I have lot of experience with pets and walking dogs. I have no pets that I live with so any dog is welcome. Just let me know what your dog needs.
About: Hello! My name is Danielle Martin. I have a master's degree in School Psychology from Millersville University and I work at a local school district. In my spare time, I enjoy being outside, cooking, and of course, spending time with all the doggos! I currently have a 6-year-old Bernese Mountain Mix, named Ryker, who I adopted in May 2020. Best quarantine decision ever! Previously, I have owned two Great Danes, so I have experience with large breeds. As a dog sitter, I aim to spend as much time with your dogs as possible, so that their time spent away from you is a pleasant one. If the dogs are up for it, I love taking them on walks and hikes, playing with their favorite toy together, and of course, snuggling and relaxing together. Since starting with Rover, I have met so many amazing pups of all ages and sizes. I also have experience with cats, small pets, birds, and reptiles! I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I am currently not working for the summer (one of the perks of being in public education!), which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine and adjust my availability to meet your pet’s needs for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I am not providing in-home sitting at this time. When at a clients home, I am respectful of the property and aim to leave the home in the same (or better) condition as when I arrived.

Thank you to Rover, and GIANT thank you to Alexis and her family!!!! 🙏”

“Becky is truly the best pet and most caring sitter ever! She knows exactly what Mel needs—whether it’s a walk, a treat, a toy, or just some love and attention. She keeps us updated daily with texts, videos, and photos, which we absolutely adore. Seeing Mel happy and relaxed, especially when she’s interacting with Becky’s lovely family and her adorable cats, Baby and Foles, makes us so happy. Every time we need a sitter, Becky is our first (and only!) choice. Mel will be going back to her any time we’re away. She’s simply the best!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all kinds and know firsthand the love and attention they need. From my first dog, Francis—a loyal Cocker Spaniel/Beagle mix who was part of the family for 16 years—to Olivia, a playful Boxer mix who brought joy for 9 years, I’ve learned how to care for dogs with different personalities and health needs. Now, I’m lucky to share my life with Lulu, a 3-year-old Staffy and Pitbull mix. I treat every dog with the same love and care I give my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well-loved. Taking care of pets is just part of my everyday life. I make sure there’s time for walks, play, meals, and plenty of love every day. I’m used to paying attention to what each dog needs—whether it’s some extra energy to burn or just some chill cuddle time. Basically, I fit pet care into my routine because I genuinely enjoy hanging out with dogs and making sure they’re happy. I live in a quiet apartment with my dog Lulu, which provides a calm and safe environment for pets. I’m also close to several parks with plenty of space for walks and playtime, so your fur baby will get lots of exercise and fresh air. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or during in-home visits, I always make sure water is available and follow feeding routines tailored to your dog’s needs. I take pride in giving attentive walks, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love to keep your dog happy and comfortable while you’re away.
“Alexis is great! She communicates, sends pictures, is very flexible and I could just tell my girl Carmen felt like she was right at home. We will definitely ask her to take care of Carmen again.”
