“Rillan was a super carer for our dog. She gave great directions to her place (which might have been a little tricky to find) and sent several pictures of our pet throughout her stay. This was our first time using Rover, so we felt a little unsure, but everything went well. Thanks, Rillan!”
“Georgette had another great experience with Tess and Curt. She played hard and fell asleep in the car on the three minute drive home. I appreciated the updates throughout the day.”
“Simone and Kenya take such good care of Smokey and always make sure he’s comfortable and happy. I feel completely at ease leaving him with them whenever I’m traveling. They’re trustworthy, caring, and genuinely treat him like their own. I’m very grateful for all the love and attention they give him.”
“Jessica and her family were amazing sitters for our Labrador "Bella!" We couldn't have asked for a nicer or kinder family to entrust our fury family member. Bella loved her time with Jessica leaving my wife and I comforted to know she was in good care! Highly recommend Jessica for any pet sitting services. She took the time to periodically send videos and photos during Bella's stay. This further secured our trust that Bella was in good hands and allowed my wife and I to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely use Jessica again!”
“Oh my god! The absolute best I’ve seen yet! Raven was well taken care of and Ryan often sent pictures of Raven! We were on a last minute trip, and Ryan saved us by picking up and dropping off Raven! What a great family and just took the upmost care of Raven! Ryan and his family are hands down the GREATEST!!”
“My doggie had such a great time visiting with Jodi! Their yard is beautiful, their dogs were fun to play with and she was treated like a queen. We are so happy we found this sitter and will definitely be using them again!”
“Derya was great! Easy to arrange drop off and pick up. Our pups seemed happy and healthy throughout the week; we got regular updates and pictures, usually twice a day. Would definitely use again!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Crystal while she looked after my 9-month-old Snowshoe cat, Mavis, during my spring break. Right from the meet and greet, she knew her stuff. She introduced Mavis to her apartment, and her pet is around the same age, Sushi, and gave us some great tips on helping Mavis settle in. The Blink camera in the room where Mavis stayed was a nice touch, allowing Crystal to check in on her whenever she was out, which was reassuring. Plus, she ensured Mavis got plenty of playtime – she understood Mavis's playful side. I was impressed by how Crystal helped Mavis and Sushi become friends. They hit it off after a little supervised playtime, which made me feel even better about leaving Mavis with her. What genuinely set Crystal apart was her communication. She kept in touch throughout my trip, sending updates and adorable pictures of Mavis. It was so reassuring to see Mavis happy and well taken care of while I was away. In short, Crystal is fantastic at what she does. She's caring, professional, and loves animals. I'll definitely be calling on her again next time I need a cat sitter.”
“Laura was fantastic with Tasha, she sent me updates and photos, walked her a couple of times a day. Tasha had a nice time staying overnight. But mostly, i loved that her boy enjoyed having her in his house :)”
“Katrina was an absolute blessing while watching our senior dog, Fudge. We were away for our daughter's graduation and she made sure we could be fully present without a second of worry. She took Fudge on gentle walks tailored to his pace, and constantly sent the sweetest videos and photos that had us smiling the whole weekend. You can tell she truly loves senior dogs — she was patient, attentive, and treated Fudge like her own. Returning to a happy, relaxed pup was the best graduation gift we could ask for. We trust Katina 100% and will be booking her again. If you have a senior dog, she’s your person!”
“Alexis was fantastic. I booked her last minute and she did an amazing job. Sadie had an upset stomach when I dropped her off and Alexis did a great job with Sadie's meds and looking after her. She was feeling much better when she got home. Would definitely book again.”

About: I have lifelong experience caring for cats, having owned and cared for them at every stage—from kittens to adult and senior cats. This has given me a strong understanding of their changing needs, behaviors, and routines. In addition to caring for my own pets, I regularly look after friends’ cats while they are out of town, ensuring they receive consistent care, attention, and companionship in their home environment. I have also provided in-home boarding for my family’s cats, hosting them at my house and maintaining a safe, comfortable space while their owners are away.

“Jana did an awesome job watching my guinea pigs again! Her updates are so detailed and I can tell she really pays attention to each of my pets individually and knows their varying personalities. I do not have to worry about them while I’m gone when she’s taking care of them!”
“Irene was great with dropping in on my two cats while I was away on a long work trip. Both my cats are unique, and she understood immediately how to work with their different temperaments. Also, she was able to communicate well with me throughout the 10-days. When I was having issues with the Rover app, she was understanding and helpful and we quickly figured out any issues. I’d recommend Irene and work with her again. Thanks!”
“Esmee did an incredible job taking care of my cat Teto over the winter period. They were always on time and did everything I had asked of them, and more!

They also sent me sweet photos of him every day!”
“Kelly is great!!! We booked her while we went to FL for a week and she was amazing. She sent updates and photos 2 times a day. I have a cat who is on the shyer side and likes to hide and Kelly was great at working with him. She would go find him and bring him his food to his hiding spots. Will definitely book Kelly again!”

“Katie and her family made our first Rover experience awesome. Clear, quick communications and day-of photo pictures were helpful and reassuring. Ziva came home tired from lots of yard time.”
“We were a little apprehensive, never used Rover before, we were unfamiliar with Rillan, just had past reviews to help us choose. Happy to say, we were pleasantly surprised! Rillan is definitely a dog person. Our dog loves to play with other dogs, but dogs need to be monitored so they don’t get too crazy. She has a nice outdoor fenced play area and inside open space. Like a good kindergarten teacher, Rillan makes sure each dog plays nicely, separates those that need a time out and also gives individual attention. She sent pictures and stayed in touch, just for an afternoon of doggie day care! Our dog’s day ended with a nap and snuggles with Rillan and another dog hanging out on the sofa!! Will definitely use her again!”
“I cant say enough about Simone & Kenya. We were in a bind and they were able to help us with very short notice. They sent pictures throughout the day which gave us great comfort that our puppy was being well cared for. He was so very happy when we picked him up. I know he would like to visit again.”
“If you’re looking for the absolute best care for your dog, look no further than the amazing Tess & Kurt! From the moment we met them, it was clear how much they genuinely love dogs. They took the time to get to know my pup’s personality and quirks, and introduced her to their dog in a very patient and understanding way. Their communication was fantastic—they provided hourly updates (which they didn’t have to do) and the cutest photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog was so happy and relaxed when I returned, I could tell she’d been showered with attention. What really sets them apart is their kindness and patience. I can’t recommend them highly enough—trustworthy, caring, and truly the nicest dog sitters ever. Chili can’t wait for his next stay! Thank you both for everything! 🐾”
“Ryan is great. He is responsive and takes good care of Leo. Ryan's puppy, Charlie, and Leo have become friends. Leo is looking forward to future visits with Ryan and Charlie.”
About: With 20 years of dog sitting experience, I have a lifelong passion for caring for dogs of all ages. I started dog sitting when I was 14 and have since provided overnight and drop-in services. Having grown up with dogs, I've helped train four puppies and nannied for a family with a senior dog for four years. My experience includes administering medication and catering to the unique needs of both puppies and senior dogs and everything in between. I am dedicated to offering reliable, compassionate, and professional care for your furry friends. I have 2 boys under the age of 5 so we have a louder, high energy house! I work remotely part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility each day to provide dedicated care, attention, and companionship for your furry friend. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety and well-being. Dogs are always taken out on a leash to ensure their safety. I assume all dogs are not friendly unless told otherwise, ensuring a cautious and respectful approach to each new dog. I am knowledgeable about foods that are toxic to dogs and take great care to prevent them from consuming anything harmful. I believe strongly in positive reinforcement, rewarding good behavior rather than punishing the bad, to foster a trusting and happy relationship with the dogs I care for.
About: As a dog owner, I understand the patience and consistency some dogs need. I'm comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and will always follow their routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work part-time with flexible hours, primarily in the evenings, which gives me plenty of availability during the day for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets. I can also accommodate many evening and weekend care requests. Your pet's safety and comfort come first. I'll follow your care instructions, stick to their routine, and provide a safe and caring environment so your furry friend are secure and happy!

If your dog enjoys socializing and you’re comfortable with it, I can bring her along for company during visits. Of course, your pet’s comfort and preferences always come first, and I will only do this with your permission.
“I am traveling and had to leave Zeus, my 100lbs AmStaff with my mom and sister. Brigette was available short notice and she was punctual and communicative. She was not only comfortable and confident with my big strong boy, but she took my mom and sister along to teach them how to handle him.

About: Hi there! I'm Emma, and I've had a passion for working with animals for over a decade. I've grown up around and helped raise dogs and cats my whole life, but my real experience with dogs and pet sitting began in 2015 during my undergraduate years, when I worked at an indoor dog daycare for three years caring for a wide range of breeds, ages, and temperaments for up to six hours a day. That role gave me a strong foundation in reading dog behavior, managing group dynamics, and ensuring every pup felt safe and comfortable. Alongside my daycare work, I built a steady base of 2–3 private clients throughout both my undergraduate and graduate careers, providing regular dog and cat sitting on a more personal, one-on-one basis. I genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality and routine. My experience includes working with pets of all ages and breeds, those with anxiety or separation issues, and animals that require medication to be administered. Whether your pet needs lots of reassurance or just a calm, reliable presence, I'm here to make sure they're happy and well cared for while you're away! I'm currently in my third year of my PhD program at Penn State, and since I'm no longer taking classes, my schedule is much more flexible than it used to be. Most of my days are spent reading and writing from my laptop, which honestly makes me an ideal pet sitter, I'm home, I'm calm, and I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. This means I can easily build my day around your pet's existing routine, whether that's morning walks, midday playtime, or afternoon naps on the couch next to me. I find that having a furry companion around actually makes those long work sessions much more enjoyable for both of us! I'm fully available for walks, overnight stays, and everything in between, and I'm always happy to follow whatever schedule works best for your pet. Whether I'm caring for your cat(s), dog(s), or both, my approach is the same: attentive, consistent, and tailored to your pet's individual needs. I'm naturally detail-oriented, and that really comes through in how I care for animals, I pay close attention to their behaviors, moods, and routines to make sure their day-to-day feels as normal as possible while you're away. My time working at an indoor dog daycare gave me hands-on training in dog safety, behavior, and best practices for creating a calm, secure environment, experience I carry into every sitting job. I know that a settled, predictable routine can make a big difference for pets, especially those that are sensitive to change or prone to anxiety, so I always make it a priority to follow your pet's existing schedule as closely as possible. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and at ease, and for you to feel confident that they're in good hands.

My approach includes regular communication with pet owners to ensure their preferences and routines are followed, making the experience as comfortable and seamless as possible for both pets and their families. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I start by ensuring pets are fed, exercised, and given any necessary medications. Throughout the day, I maintain their environment and address any needs that arise. My routine also includes regular updates to pet owners, providing them with peace of mind and ensuring continuity of care. Each week, I review and adjust routines to accommodate any changes in the pet’s health or behavior. In my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure areas, clean spaces, and safety measures like pet-proofing and monitoring. I also follow a consistent routine to maintain stability and comfort for pets. In a client’s home, I prioritize safety by following their specific instructions and maintaining their pet’s usual environment and routines. I ensure that all doors and gates are securely closed, and I keep the home clean and hazard-free. Regular updates and open communication with the pet owners are key to ensuring their pet’s well-being and their own peace of mind.
About: I have cared for many different types of animals since I was a child. Dogs, cats, bunnies, rats and hamsters. Fostered and lived with many dogs. I currently have dogs and cats. They are the joy of my life especially since the kids (and grand dogs) have grown and moved. Couldn’t imagine life without them. I have two dogs and 2 cats to keep the fur guests company. Lots of play time in the fenced back yard. And snuggles on the couch.
