“Wonderful, awesome. Amanda is a lovely caring lady, she adores animals like we do. Our fur kids had a great time and the best care whilst we were away. We had picture and updates regularly. Planning our Xmas holidays now and will be requesting Amanda for all our bookings from now on. A 10 out of 10.”
“Heather is always so great with our Braz! She treats him like family and sends tons of updates while we are away. She’s always so friendly and understanding. We definitely will be booking with her again!”
“Mar is great to Molly. Even when a family emergency came up and I had to extend the visit unexpectedly, Mar was super helpful and accommodating. Molly gets excited when we pull up to the house, so I know she is in good hands and has a great time when she's there.”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Jamie was wonderful with The Diva! Jaime sent photos every day while we were away and updated us on how Hadassah was adjusting. I would highly recommend her to care for your sweet ones. Bobbi Jo”
“Topper loves hanging out with his good pal Wade. This trip, he enjoyed a day exploring the woods and had lots of fun! Wade made sure he was well-hydrated and a happy 11.5 year old pup on this warm sunny day. T gives 4/4 paws up and a vigorous tail wag.”
“Tucker was well adjusted when he got home, which is a good sign he was comfortable being away for us for 5 days. He also did better with dropping the ball after fetch so I think Jordan's training skills rubbed off on him too. :)”
“Amber is truly a dog lover. Her children also love dogs and keep them entertained. We are so glad we crossed paths with her because our dogs never had a dull moment and were entertained the whole time. Amber kept us updated the whole time and sent lots of pictures. We highly recommend using her!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs every size. teaching new tricks, going on walks, and ice cream is something I enjoy doing with a fur baby I currently work full time night shift. I work 12 hrs shifts so my other 4 days during the week are open to helping other animal lovers with their babies. Because without the help I receive on my work days I would b very stressed. I have an unfunded yard but I love going on walks. Me and my dog ( henny) are always going hiking, fishing, to the dog park, or just out for a car ride. Henny loves all dogs and has lots of energy to play.
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Michelle was wonderful! Diesel came back from his mini vacation extremely happy and comfortable. I call it a mini vacation because he had so much fun! Normally he can be very anxious and nervous when leaving him for an extended stay away from me, but when I picked Diesel up after his stay with Michelle, he was calm, happy, and didn't skip a beat, seeming like he didn't miss me much...which is all I could hope for from a pet sitter! I ended up needing an extra night from the original booking as well, and Michelle was more than willing to accomodate me. You can truly tell they love your babies like their own. I look forward to continuing to use her for all my future bookings! Thanks again, Michelle!”
“Carol is amazing. She was loving and kind with our pup and we were extremely comfortable with her when we left our pup at her home. We received regular photos and updates on sleeping, eating and playing. I highly recommend Carol!!!!”
“Meghan and her family took such great care of our pups. She checked in often and reassured me they were doing great. They came home happy! Would definitely recommend Meghan to take care of your pets.”
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
About: I've been a pet sitter for about 15 years. My german shepherd came into my life 7 years ago which gave me another view of pet care experience. I have worked with and cared for dogs with anxiety, fear, aggression, and in need of extra cognitive stimulation. Okay with giving meds and teaching tricks. Currently, I'm working nursing shifts as needed, with running errands on my days off. I'm more often available than not and have flexibility to work around others schedule. I have a back door doggy door that leads into a fenced in back yard (approx half an acre). I also live in a small neighborhood (very little traffic) with about a mile loop for walks. My military and nursing experience makes me very type A. Everything is always clean, tidy, and on time.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie who is our whole world. I love all animals and promise to go above and beyond to meet their needs. I work part time two days a week. I am home full time the other five days of the week. I may or may not accept bookings on the days that I work depending on the needs you are looking for. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie! We do have a toddler present in the home with a baby on the way as well. Asking that all dogs you are seeking care for are good with other dogs and small children.

“Alaura did an excellent job!! Communication was fabulous and she did everything I requested. Two of my kitties are shy but my Gus LOVED the company and attention. Highly recommend this sitter!”
“Amy graciously agreed to make 2 visits a day over a long weekend and arrived on time for each visit. She followed all the instructions I left and let me know she was concerned that one of my cats wouldn't eat. She communicated well and sent appropriate pictures. Thank you, Amy!”
“Amanda is wonderful ! She took really good care of my dog (Lucky), she kept sending constant updates on how he is doing and pictures of his playtime with other dogs. I was really satisfied and happy that I left Lucky with Amanda, I could see that he had a really good time with other dogs when I went to pick him up. She is very responsive and a very polite person, I would highly recommend her and would go back to her again if I need to board Lucky.”
“Sarah was wonderful with the cats. I felt at ease knowing she was taking care of them while we were on vacation. She took care of them like they were her own and you do t get better than that”
“Heather was amazing! My cat Sebastian (an amazing judge of character) took an immediate liking to her and even stood up on his hind legs to greet her. My birthday weekend away was stress free knowing my little prince was well cared for. Thank you so much. I would hire again!”
About: I’ve taken care of numerous pets since I was a young girl. I’ve helped take care of cats, dogs, hamsters, and turtles. I currently help my mom in walking, feeding, and bathing our dog and two cats. My sister often relies on me to walk and feed her pets as well. I’m currently a college student, so I’m able to work part-time for dog walking and dog sitting at a client’s home. I’m available during the week, especially on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. I’m able to travel to a client’s home to take care of any pets he or she has. I’m a lover of all pets, but I’m especially trained in caring for small and medium dogs and cats. I take my dog for a walk about three times a week, so I’m also available as a dog walker.
About: I have been taking care of people's pets ever since I was a kid. This includes house sitting or checking in on lovely furry companions. The sitter that comes to your house! So that way your loving companion never has to leave their home. The comfort of your pet is important to me, so that is why I come to you. I currently work a full time job, but my schedule. But I do have a varied shifts and I know my schedule a month in advance. So I can try my best to fit you ans your furry companion(s) needs!

“Muriel was the best! She took great care of our pooch! We are so thankful for her. She was always on schedule and she let us know how our pup was doing. It was a great experience for our first time using Rover.com.”
About: I have had cats in my life for as long as I can remember. Cats are very unique, cats have very loud individual personalities. No two cats are the same, that includes not just attitude but behavior as well. Saying this, I have quite a bit of experience with a wide verity of cats, those who hated my existence to those who loved licking my face and hair. But at the end of the day, the cats personal space is clean and tidy as well as medicated. I actually love giving cats medications, its a challenge for me and it also helps that i know medication is some of the only way to help certain ailments.
About: I can do boarding for any friendly cat since I have 2 kittens but it would be hard for me to watch a dog in my apartment or board a dog so I would have to come to your house to watch your dog. For any visit that I will make to your house, I will make absolute sure that your dog is comfortable with me being there, then I will gain their trust so that every time I come back they will get more and more happy that their friend Nikki is coming to take care of them! If your dog needs a walk, don't worry! I have experience with a dog that weighs a good 100 pounds, so they can't run away from me! I'll even clean up after your pooch after they go to the bathroom, just to make sure your neighbors don't get angry with me! Also, any animal I meet I love, so that means any job I take, I will be more than happy to keep returning to your house, or walking your dog(s)!
About: At 23 years old, I've never had a moment in my life where I haven't had a dog. I've been raised with them and have had a total of 6 dogs. At any one point, the most dogs that use lived with was 3 so I have learned how to take great care of them. In high school, I was frequently tasked with dog sitting neighborhood animals. This included both dogs and cats. From my work, I've never had any pet owner be unsatisfied. My experience with dogs ranges from tiny breed to the humongous. I am available at all times of the week. I've recently graduated college and am starting an internship soon. However, this should minimally impact my availability due to being able to work on my internship from home. I live in an apartment with my little chihuahua, Gizmo. Due to not having a yard, I take him for mini walks about 4 or 5 times a day. If I housed an dog, I would take them out as frequently as well as regular walks. I have 1 other roommate that would also be able to provide loving for whatever pet may come out way.
About: My girls are my life. Dramatic maybe but true. I have two cats myself and will be adding a 3rd before long. I also take car of all the strays at my apartment complex. My girl binks was a rescue who has taken about a year to fully feel safe and come into her own. She is also developmentally delayed and partially blind so I for sure understand going at their speed. I can administer meds and have no issue with cleaning litter boxes while your out. While I love me some good cuddles I also know how important it is for them to just have someone come hangout for a while. If your baby’s love to play like mine do I can definitely do that as well. I’m all about my cats and would treat yours just like my own

My life is Gucci and we would love to have your animal and promise to keep them safe. They will be walked and entertained. If your pet doesn't like other pets then we might not be the best fit.

If you book for more than a weekend, I can be flexible (1 to 2 hrs) due to flight delays, etc. Thank you!

We have potty pads available for comfort in between outings. I allow access to my whole home and will enjoy a walk once a day or more weather permitting. We have a great time individually and daily with all our little ones.
“Deanna was great! She was able to take Mishka within 2 days notice and met with us first to make sure Mishka felt comfortable in her home! If we visit PA again with family we will use her and I will let any friends in my hometown know how great she was!”
“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little hesitant dropping off my baby boy…however Caitlin made me feel right at ease!

“Very affectionate care for our 2 doggies. Fed them & gave one her pills. Only negative--I thought it was a non smoking house but I smelled smoke in the house & on dogs afterwards. Maybe I misread. But Jessica & family took great care of our babies.”

About: Hello! My name is Julia and I’m 27 years old. I’ve taken care of, rescued & owned nearly every pet imaginable. As a young child I grew up in a home taking care of various animals. For years I have been rescuing and re-homing animals of all sorts. Animals are a big passion of mine. I am very comfortable with injured, animals in need of rehabilitation, or animals in need of special medical attention of any kind. At the current moment I am available full time for your pet!!! For last 3 years I have worked as an EMT all over the country. As of right now I decided to go part time with EMS in order to have more freedom/ be able to work when I want to. I work as a part time EMT at the moment in order to set my own schedule. I want to expand my career and build clients with pet owners in hopes of fulfilling my dream of working with animals, rehabilitating, and caring for animals of all kinds. I promise to offer your pets a safe, trustworthy environment. No matter if I come to your home or they come to mine. They will be taken care of as my own and that is a promise on my part.
“We had an excellent experience using Rover & meeting Allie. We were able to fully enjoy a family wedding knowing she was watching and caring for our pup. Everything went well, the schedule worked perfectly and we would definitely book again.”
“Marcy is beyond wonderful! She’s so caring and I can tell Porter has a good time while he stays with her and her dog Charlie. He comes home completely I can’t seem to keep him awake which is amazing because he’s just a 3 month old puppy and is typically a wild child in the afternoons! Marcy was so kind to take him on at a late request and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my little man. She made me feel so comfortable immediately! If I could give her more than five stars I would! She is so kind and I can guarantee she’d treat anyone’s pup like the special little fur ball they are :)”

About: I have a senior dog of my own who requires a lot of TLC! With him being 16 I am well versed in administering medicine to animals, giving them all the attention they need, and getting in some active time! I have also house sat and taken care of numerous dogs for a multiple day period! I have been dog sitting as a hobby since I was in high school! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, needs, and energy levels! I joined rover because I have an immense love for fur babies and getting to interact with all of them and take care of them fills me with joy! I am currently in college attending IUP. I graduate in December. During my semesters, my classes are all online so I am very available when it comes to my schedule! I also work part-time but the schedule is flexible as well so I can accommodate for any needs you have! With my work and school schedule being very flexible I am able to stop in for frequent potty breaks and check-ins! This allows me to also be very open for walks and stays! With offering services to watch your animal in your home, this allows for the dog to be more comfortable because they’re in their day-to-day environment! I will take the upmost care with respecting your home and not disrupting it!
About: I grew up in East Texas with 3 Bengal tigers in my front yard and a minuture potbelly pig named Bubba in our home. I currently have a Exotic Micro Bully named Gucci who loves all other animals. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is Gucci and we would love to have your animal and promise to keep them safe. They will be walked and entertained. If your pet doesn't like other pets then we might not be the best fit. Gucci can handle just about anything but he is so socialized that I don't think he would defend himself even if he needed too. Please only other animals that are completely okay with other pets. We go to the Westmoreland County Dog Obodeience School once a week and will pass on all knowledge we learn to those that will let us teach them. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is non stop pet care. You will have no worries of your pet being left unattended. Gucci is never left alone and neither will your pet. Lots of walks and love! If you would like your pet crated for whatever reason please provide it. We are a crate free home. I live in an apartment but it's a big one and we take lots of walks.

“Heather is always so great with our Braz! She treats him like family and sends tons of updates while we are away. She’s always so friendly and understanding. We definitely will be booking with her again!”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Topper loves hanging out with his good pal Wade. This trip, he enjoyed a day exploring the woods and had lots of fun! Wade made sure he was well-hydrated and a happy 11.5 year old pup on this warm sunny day. T gives 4/4 paws up and a vigorous tail wag.”
“Tucker was well adjusted when he got home, which is a good sign he was comfortable being away for us for 5 days. He also did better with dropping the ball after fetch so I think Jordan's training skills rubbed off on him too. :)”
“Amber is truly a dog lover. Her children also love dogs and keep them entertained. We are so glad we crossed paths with her because our dogs never had a dull moment and were entertained the whole time. Amber kept us updated the whole time and sent lots of pictures. We highly recommend using her!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs every size. teaching new tricks, going on walks, and ice cream is something I enjoy doing with a fur baby I currently work full time night shift. I work 12 hrs shifts so my other 4 days during the week are open to helping other animal lovers with their babies. Because without the help I receive on my work days I would b very stressed. I have an unfunded yard but I love going on walks. Me and my dog ( henny) are always going hiking, fishing, to the dog park, or just out for a car ride. Henny loves all dogs and has lots of energy to play.
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Michelle was wonderful! Diesel came back from his mini vacation extremely happy and comfortable. I call it a mini vacation because he had so much fun! Normally he can be very anxious and nervous when leaving him for an extended stay away from me, but when I picked Diesel up after his stay with Michelle, he was calm, happy, and didn't skip a beat, seeming like he didn't miss me much...which is all I could hope for from a pet sitter! I ended up needing an extra night from the original booking as well, and Michelle was more than willing to accomodate me. You can truly tell they love your babies like their own. I look forward to continuing to use her for all my future bookings! Thanks again, Michelle!”
“Meghan and her family took such great care of our pups. She checked in often and reassured me they were doing great. They came home happy! Would definitely recommend Meghan to take care of your pets.”
About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie who is our whole world. I love all animals and promise to go above and beyond to meet their needs. I work part time two days a week. I am home full time the other five days of the week. I may or may not accept bookings on the days that I work depending on the needs you are looking for. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie! We do have a toddler present in the home with a baby on the way as well. Asking that all dogs you are seeking care for are good with other dogs and small children.
“Allie’s updates really helped to calm my nerves about leaving my luna girl while we went on our trip. She was extremely nice and she is super to work with! Definitely 100/10 recommend!”
“Jody was extremely pleasant to work with. She was friendly immediately upon meeting her and interacted with our dogs like they were her own. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. Anywhere from small, medium, to large dogs. I’ve had mini dachshunds, Dalmatians, St. Bernards, and German Shepherds. Currently right now I have a 3 Golden Retrievers named Willie, Waylon, and Hank. I also have a cat named Cash! I current work full time Monday-Thursday. I can be available later evenings if needed, we would just have to work things out in advance. I am generally free Friday-Sunday for any needs as well but also with notice. We have a 2 acre yard that my pups are free to roam via a underground fence. But we also have a lead for my moms dogs when she brings them over to play. We have a big house with a good sized living room and kitchen where all of my pups play as well when we have to be inside.
“Luther and Buster had a great stay! They were both tired out from the visit and went right to sleep when they made it into the car. Thanks again Kristin, wish you were closer to use here so we could work with you more often.”
“Ashauna was wonderful with our dog. She sent pictures periodically throughout our Princess’s stay so I could see how much fun they were having. We will definitely request Ashauna if she is available the next time we need overnight boarding.”
“Kelly is great! She was communicative, caring, and even taught our Golden Retriever a few new tricks while she watched him (paws down!) I’d highly recommend her to anyone look for a dog sitter!”
