“Becky was great. Thorough reports about her visits and how our cat Sophie was doing with pictures. Definitely 5 stars. Would use her again and recommend her to anyone”
“Brittany was an awesome pet sitter! She took great care of my cat, while I was out of town for the week. She was great at keeping me up-to date on waffles and sent many pictures. I would definitely rebook in the future, as it seemed my cat was comfortable as she came out of her hiding spot many times, which is unusual for her with new people.”
“Kari was excellent with my 11yo diabetic cat! She was able to monitor his food intake and give him insulin shots when needed. When he didn't eat right away, she was able to hang around a little so the shot could be administered. I can't tell you how much I appreciated that! The daily pics were great too. Would definitely use her again.”
“Margaret took great care of our three cat’s especially taking special care of our Charlotte who hides from strangers! She went above and beyond by spending time with them and communicating how they were doing. This was our first vacation away from our kitties and Margaret made us feel at ease that everything was going to be ok! Thank you so much Margaret for everything!”
“Kasandra was great! She checked on our cat while we were out of town and it made leaving him so much easier knowing he was in good hands. We will be booking with her again!”
“Sarah made us feel at ease and like our cats were in good hands immediately. She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures. She even made sure they got to go outside in their catio on every visit. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone and I’ll be hoping she’s available next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Madison was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! Received daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated. She took great care of our (very shy) cat, who even let her get close a few times! He’s never done that with anyone else who is new. She went out of her way to track him down during her visits, and I was confident our cat was well cared for. Would definitely love to have her pet sit again in the future!”
“Isabella was absolutely phenomenal. She was very friendly, timely, and took great care of our cat during a week long trip. I would highly recommend contacting her for your pet needs!!”
About: Hi! I’m a full-time healthcare worker and lifelong cat lover with experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities—from playful kittens to shy seniors. I understand that every cat is different, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own environment. I’m comfortable administering medications, following special feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their space, I’ll respect their routine and provide the care they need while you’re away. I know how much peace of mind matters when leaving your pet, so I’ll provide updates and photos during each visit. My goal is to make sure both you and your cat feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re apart.
“Awesome as always and Sebastian likes Marlaina! Rover: I am completely fine with Marlaina not staying the full 30 minutes, as she gives Sebastian his SubQ fluids, and it does not take 30 minutes to administer. Thank you!”
“Sydney took great care of our kitties while we were away! Our cats can be particular with their people, so it was great to hear the updates and see the photos of our cats and Sydney getting along. They were absolutely well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Finding Chentel was a blessing and I highly recommend her pet sitting services! She is very personable, communicative, responsible and has a true love for animals. I felt completely at ease leaving my cat and home in her care while I was away. Chentel is an asset to Rover!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and have been pet-sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since age 12. I have taken many dog training classes and understand dogs’ needs and body language. I am a therapist so I have a good understanding of behavioral principles and understand how to be patient while building trust. I require a meet and greet before confirming a booking so your dog is familiar with me/my house and we can ensure they get along with my dogs. I work from home full-time, and typically take a break every 3 hours, at which point the dogs are let out into the fenced-in backyard. I can walk dogs in the morning (around 8 or 9) and/or the evening (around 5 or 6). I have a fenced-in yard and two very friendly and easy-going dogs (50lbs and 75lbs). I am able to crate dogs if needed (you provide the crate) or separate dogs in different areas of the house if any dogs need a break from the others. As I view dogs as part of the family, they are allowed on furniture and beds and receive plenty of attention and snuggles.

“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.”
“She was amazing. My older girl has bad anxiety leaving me but she loved being with Kayla! And she was so amazing with my puppy whos still potty training and testing boundaries. In every single photo she sent they looked so happy. She was patient and kind. Shes super chill and easy to talk to / book with and she always offering a solution to fit my needs for a sitter no matter how last minute. I would 110% recommend her to anyone who needs their pups watched!!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was 5. I’ve always been in charge of their wellbeing. I currently have 4 pets so handling a couple more fur babies isn’t a problem for me. Either they’re big or small. I’ll treat them as my own. I currently am not working so I will be with your fur baby 24/7. I am very strict with feeding times, potty breaks and play time. I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to run. I also live a block away from the park so a nice walk would be able to happen as well. My family has a total of 4 cats and three dogs but not to worry all dogs are very friendly and I will be there at all times during interaction if anything where to happen. Our cats are super chill too they don’t want nothing to do with our dogs or humans.
“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 worked with animals for a long time. I have a degree in biology and psychology for animal training and behavior. I worked previously in a zoo setting, as well as offering dog training classes through a pet store. I’m trained in positive reinforcement techniques. I work from home with a flexible schedule. We have one English bulldog in our home and I would love the opportunity to visit with your pets on an as needed or regular basis. If you have any questions not answered here, please feel free to contact me about my history/experience or any specific needs you may have. Thanks for reading and your interest! I work from home so I’m always looking to get some fresh air and take a break! I can walk dogs or check in during the normal work day. Currently I’m offering dog walks and check ins during the week. I will follow all of your instructions and be sure to send you an update! We are looking for one dog to offer doggy daycare weekly in our home. My husband and I are both WFH and we would love host a dog (must be okay with dogs and kids) during the workweek!
“We are new to the area and this is the first time we have used Anton. My dog Lancelot enjoyed his visit and received a warm welcome and he felt relaxed upon the meet and greet. Right from the start he made Lancelot feel comfortable and he felt right at home. Anton is very responsive and kind and he sends updates with photos. Knowing your pet is cared for makes me enjoy my time away even more! I have already booked another visit with Anton. Thank you Anton!”
About: I love to ensure each pet is kept safe while they are away from home. I know how I want my own pets treated, so I make sure to do the same! We love to play, eat treats, and have fun over here! I’m available full time, I am a stay at home mother so I enjoy doing this in free time and have a pretty open schedule :) I prefer to have animals in my home because it is a lot easier for me to tend to them. Boarding them in my home is easiest for me as long as your animal is okay around children and another animal!
“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.”
About: I have been dog sitting and dog walking for 10 years now. I love it and wouldn't change it for the world. I live in a full fenced yard with a swimming pool! I work from home every day! I can help bath, feed, and give medications. I care for all dogs of any size and any breed. I have a dog myself (she is an 1 year old vizsla) and take her on 5 mile walks daily. I have 3 young boys that love animals and will play and run until they are all tired! I work from home every day and my schedule is very flexible. I can stop in to check on the dog or take them for a walk. I have a fully fenced in yard. If the dog needs crated, I have that as well. They will feel right at home at my house.
“Rosa and her daughters took very good care of our puppy, Rosie during our stay in the Harrisburg area when we took a day trip to Hershey Park. She was very good at communicating to us throughout the day by sending lots of photos and videos of our pup! 10/10 recommend and will 100% use again whenever I am in the area and need a dog sitter. Thank you again for everything, we appreciate you and your care greatly!! Happy 4th of July!”

About: Hi and thanks for stopping by! I'm a huge softie for all kinds of animals, having grown up with multiple dogs, cats, and rabbits in the house at all times. In my years of pet sitting for various friends, neighbors, and relatives, I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, and horses (and the occasional few guppies:)). Working at a stable for four years in high school also gave me valuable experience in the care and handling of 20+ large animals at a time. I also have experience giving various oral and injected medications, so if your pet has any medical needs, I am comfortable administering them according to your instructions! I moved this year and sadly had to leave my furry friends with family since we cannot have pets in the place we are renting, so getting to take care of your animals would actually be so special to me! Spending time with some furry friends would absolutely make my day :) Whether it's play time, long walks, snuggles, or simply keeping them company, I strive to treat each and every pet as one of my own! As an online college student, I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and can work around your various needs. I can usually be available at short notice and spend considerable time with your furry friends or do frequent drop-in visits if needed! I am a very attentive and caring person, so I will respect your home and love your pets as if they are my own and follow all instructions to the very best of my ability!
About: I have experience caring for dogs, bunnies,guinea pigs and cats. I have always wanted to care for animals as my career since I was little. I have experience caring for animals in a private setting and with a company. I am devoted to caring for pets as needed. As this will be my full-time job. My schedule is flexible around you and your pet needs. I will always put the animals safety first. I will be aware of my surroundings and communicate with the pet owner daily via text and pictures.
“Chentel is a wonderful dog walker/sitter! So happy to have found her. I’m sure my pups are always so happy to see her! She goes above and beyond to care for my pups-and cleans up their many messes!”
About: I am very patient and treat every dog like they’re my own. I will give them a lot of love and respect. Thank you !! I have a lot of extra free time and will be willing to make some time for your doggies!! Whenever you need me:) thank you!! I have a huge green grass area in front of my house, a great backyard at my gma’s house and a great neighborhood for walks!
About: Ever since I was a very little girl, animals have been the object of my attention. My parents still love to tell stories about how as soon as I could walk, as little as 2, I would walk into pet shops and ask to hold snakes and other “scary” animals. I love them all and have had the luxury of either owning or taking care of every kind of pet. I truly mean every— dogs, cats, fish, turtles, lizards, birds (ducks, rescues, etc), tarantulas, frogs, newts, axolotls, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, moles, rabbits, squirrels, raccoons, and I’m sure I’m missing some. I’ve also taken care of an extensive array of bugs. Just ask! While I mainly and primarily care for furry friends— I have lots of experience with other pets. :^) I’m currently only working with Rover and with Wag Caregiver, so I am always at home! I spend all of my time at home with other’s people pets. I am almost exclusively at home. I leave to go to the store and run errands, but otherwise, I’m a complete home body. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I have a very safe and pet friendly neighborhood to walk your dogs. I do plan to move into my first home within the next 6 months, and will have a fenced in yard then. Aside from that, my home is perfectly equipped for your furry (or maybe not so furry!) companions. They are allowed on almost any and all surfaces. Beds, couches, floors, all.

About: My very first job at 13 years old was a dog sitter and walker. This became very successful business that I truly enjoyed for years to come. I have had many dogs over my life that have been a part of my family. I have had labs, a German shepherd and now I have inherited a chihuahua. I am a dog lover by nature and would love to help you ensure your dog gets the exercise, fresh air and attention they need! I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available during the week with the occasional weekend availability. Please send me a message anytime and I will get back to you in a timely manner.

About: I love spending time with my dogs, so I'll love spending time with yours. Love giving all dogs unconditional love and attention.

I am very patient, and love working with animals, especially dogs are my favorite to work with ! I do work full time, but only 3 days a week, I am available in the mornings on those days as well, because I work night shift! I have been caring for my own two dogs for about 10 years now, I am capable of doing anything that your pet may need.
“Wonderful! Great communication! Rachel provided details and photos of her time with my dog. She followed everything requested while following cues from my pet. Will book again!”
About: I have cared for many types of dogs, small, medium, and large, for over 20 years. I believe dogs need to be social, active, and allowed to live as though they are the most important being in one's household. I work from home, so there are plenty of opportunities for outdoor play in a fenced yard, leashed walks/runs to the neighborhood park nearby, and human companionship. Car rides to other parks and nature trails are an option as well. My fenced yard provides a safe environment for free play, roaming, and exploration. My home is also a free-range environment, and conducive to a safe and secure stay.
