Highly-rated overnight sitters - New Cumberland
“If you're looking for someone to watch your dog for any period of time, look no further than De'Andra and Robert! They did a fantastic job watching our Pablo for the weekend, and they kept us updated every step of the way with how he was doing (including pictures and videos). I would absolutely trust them to watch Pablo again.”
“Teresa has watched my baby boy Milo a couple times and this past time was much longer than others and let me say he did not want to leave her! She does an amazing job with communicating and sending pictures especially when I miss him too much! She has been such a great help! Looking forward to using her in the future.”
“Jaideep and his family took excellent care of our 6-month-old, Atlas, while we were on a family vacation. He kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and detailed check-ins. We’ll definitely be using his services again in the near future.”
“Heather is a great doggie sitter! She boarded our little guy, Obi, and he seemed very well cared for and loved. Special thanks to you Heather for taking him a few hours earlier than expected.”
“Angel was great! She sent pictures and videos to update us while we were gone and was quick to communicate. It’s great to know our little guy was well cared for while we were away!”
“Marner had a great time playing and napping with his dog friend. He’s well taken care of and Sowmya sends us pictures each day. This is our 2nd time using Sowmya. Definitely recommend!”
“We boarded our dog with Anton in mid October 2025. The communication with Anton was great. He was very quick to respond to text messages. He kept us updated on how she was doing, including pictures. He was very flexible for meeting her needs. Our dog was well cared during her visit. We will utlize Anton again in the future!”
“Michelle is the best! She gave us daily progress reports and pictures. She took care of Papi like family. She even brushed his teeth. Papi is usually afraid of everything and everyone, but warmed up to Michelle and her dog, Emmy, quickly. She gave us such peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Kayla is awesome! My dog always has a great time and we always get a lot of pictures and updates from Kayla. She is a great communicator and we always feel confident when we leave Zuri with her. We have used Kayla several times and we will continue to book with her in the future.”
“Maria and Phillip were fantastic! We have two large dogs and one with close care health issues. She was very communicative their entire stay and was very attentive to them both. We couldn’t ask for better people to watch them! They had a great time and will be using them again.”
“As always Miss Bobbi was wonderful with my Maggie. She sends pictures and videos, and I know Maggie is in good hands when she is with her and Nala. Miss Bobbi was helpful and understanding with Maggie needing medicine given to her twice a day.”
“We will definitely use Rosa again. She is fast to respond. We took our little girl for a meet and greet and we knew then she would be fine. Rosa and her daughters were great! She sent lots of pictures and videos. Zara was well cared for and loved.”
“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”
“Sarah is an amazing dog sitter! She will give your dog love and the very best care you could ask for. I feel great about leaving my dog with her and my dog comes home so happy.”
“Desire is amazing, she has a wonderful place and this is the first time I left Rosco with someone. Desire has been sending me regular updates with pictures and videos. Thank you very much for taking such a good care of him.”
“Heather was great with Georgia. She was very attentive and sent routine photo updates during Georgia’s stay with her to keep my husband and I informed. We were very impressed and happy with how Heather cared for Georgia while we were away. Thank you!”

“My wife and I were getting married over the weekend and needed last second coverage for our two kitties for four days. We had never used Rover before and Rebekah was very kind to our sweet kitties and sent lovely pictures. They normally are so anxious if we are gone for even one day, but with Rebekah’s visits Rosie and Huckleberry were right back to normal as soon as stepped in the door!”
“I was very concerned to leave my cat, Hidey, for 9 days or training, as she had not done well over the past year with my hospital stays. Typically when I come home, it takes Hidey about 2 days to stop being nervous/scared/mad. Having Madison stopping by each day was a game changer! When I returned home, Hidey was super happy to see me and seemed much calmer than she normally is when I'm gone. Hidey doesn't normally come out from her hiding place when strangers are here, but Madison sent photos each day showing Hidey out and about and looking at ease. I will definitely use Madison again and recommend her highly!”
“Sally is so great with taking care of my Midnight. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable sitter that loves to interact with the animals and make sure they are loved when their family is away.”
“Becky did a fantastic job as an overnight sitter for my two cats. One of my cats is insulin dependent, and Becky was fastidious about administering his insulin via a shot every 12 hours. She sent great updates and had very thoughtful questions. I will definitely be rebooking Becky! My cats were very chill when I returned home, and my house was just as I left it.”
About: I’ve been a dedicated cat lover for years and grew up caring for three cats over a seven-year period—two short-haired and one long-haired. This gave me hands-on experience with different coat types, grooming needs, and personalities. From brushing and basic upkeep to making sure each cat felt comfortable and loved, I understand how to tailor care to each individual feline. My cats were especially adventurous and even enjoyed going on walks with me, so I’m comfortable working with curious, active cats as well as those who prefer a calm, cozy environment. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and routine to ensure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. Whether your cat needs playtime, gentle grooming, or just a reliable companion, I’ll treat them like my own.
“If I had more stars to give, I would. Just as we thought we hit the jackpot with our Charlie girl, we also hit the jackpot with Sarah. To be able to leave your pet, knowing they will be loved and cared for is the best feeling. Sarah did just that and more! Charlie was loved and played with a lot! Her food, water and litter box were tended to and the area was immaculate. I also appreciated that Sarah reached out with questions. She cares enough to ask the details and that’s important. Sarah is the kind of person you want to watch over your pet. She’s the best - hands-down.”
“The bestest!!!!! If you want someone to watch your cats and feel secure they’re being well taken care of, get Hanna!! She is so caring and makes the extra effort to make our babies feel comfortable and content. One of our kitties is very shy and Hanna did a great job of respecting her space but also making sure she’s fed/doing well. The other kitty that loves attention, Hanna made sure to give it to him! In addition, she made sure the water fountain was filled and the litter box clean! We are so appreciative of her and will definitely work with her again and recommend her care!!!”
“Sadie is amazing! She took my pet sitting request with short notice and was very easy to work with. She made sure to keep me up to date with detailed messages during her time sitting my kitten and even sent me pictures showing him being comfortable and playful around her. She also went above and beyond and did extra things around the house which I appreciated very much. She’s very respectful and professional. I will definitely request her again for my next pet sitting. Thanks Sadie!”
“Kasandra gave great care to my 2 cats during her visit each day. She took great pics of both cats to share with me daily and amazed me that my tuxedo cat came out to her each day since she usually hides from new visitors. I am pleased overall and would choose her again for cat care.”
“Sydney was an excellent cat sitter. Super responsive and took great care of my cat. She left the house in perfect condition and even pitched in bringing in a grocery order before a impending snow storm.”
“Kathy took great care of my cat! It was my cat Lydia's first time staying somewhere new, and she made herself right at home at Kathy's. Kathy was very attentive and responsive, and Lydia loved watching the birds on the deck! I would definitely recommend Kathy and would book her for Lydia again.”
“Chantel is a lovely human who took exceptional care of my cats while I was away. She takes the responsibility very seriously and paid close attention to details about each of the girls. I loved getting pictures and updates each day I was away. It was comforting to know they were getting lots of love and attention. I will work with Chentel again because I trust her with my furry family.”
“Isabella took great care of my kitty for the week while I was on vacation! She sent me daily updates and photos and even cleaned up after her when she had an accident! I’d highly recommend Isabella for your next vacation!”
“Tracy was great with our pets, even the persnickety one who might have tried to eat her, haha. And she kept in touch with us well too. Always nice when we're away to see our pets, who are an important part of our family, are happy. Thank you Tracy! We will surely call on you again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - New Cumberland
“Rosa and her family are so amazing! We had an emergency and she was able to book immediately. We don’t live in the area either so this was a big help! Also, my dog does not get along with bigger dogs, usually. But he loved her dog, Franca! if I could give her 1 million stars, I would. 💖. Thank you for saving our day!”
“I had to make a last minute trip and was worried about my girl being alone since I wasn’t optimistic there would be anyone to take her as a last minute. Fortunately, Jaideep responded back quickly and said he’d take care of her. The communication was great and he sent many pictures and updates throughout the day. My Luna looked like she was having a blast and looked calm. I will definitely be asking for Jaideep’s help with Luna again in the future.”
“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’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.
About: We have had many animals over the years. I volunteer at the shelter and with rescues. I have experience dealing with puppies to senior dogs/cats. I’ve worked with animals with behavior and health issues. I very big animal lover and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I’m recently retired. I keep active with my friends, children and grandkids. My schedule is flexible and I look forward to filling it with time spent with new furry friends! I will try my best to stick to whatever routine you have established for your pet. I will work with the owner to get to know the pets behaviors and routine prior to sitting.
About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies. I’m currently in college, I’ve always loved animals and I lost my job in March, I’m just trying to find better things for myself. Reach out anytime ☺️ I have open availability so pretty much let me know what you’re looking for, if you want me to just stay at yours or even if you just want me to pop in and out from time to time! I have a fenced yard so I’m always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot
“AMAZING ! my fur baby had so much fun. He almost didn’t even wanna leave. Also was such a last-minute booking on my end. Very thankful that you guys were able to accept if I could rate 10 stars I would will be rebooking !!”
“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.”
About: 6/2026 UPDATE: After a long hiatus, I am back to dog sitting. It's a long story but my house burned down and it took years to get back into, a car accident, etc. However, I would like to start sitting other dogs again. I have my own dog, a bullmastiff named Bodi, who turned a year old in May 2026. He's 130+ lbs so far. He's a big big baby. He's very well socialized and goes to the dog park frequently, doesn't guard resources, and loves smaller dogs too. He is very gentle with them. Bodi is not neutered so no females in heat. My mother lives with me and she has a household cat. So, while it's ok for dogs to chase a cat, the cat is dog savvy, I cannot watch any dogs that would wish to do actual harm to the cat. I am especially doing this right now so my dog remains accustomed to new dogs entering his home and welcoming them. I'm home all the time so my schedule is open. My mother also lives with me and she is here all the time as well. I have a small fenced yard. I usually take my dog to the dog park or for a walk, or he has a playdate with the neighbor dog. So, while watching your dog, I would take him/her to the dog Park if that's ok with you, or take them for a walk. I do have a hip issue so I can't promise a lengthy walk every single day no matter what, simply because I do have hip issues. However, i would be able to throw a stick around, etc, to ensure your dog gets enough exercise. My dog Bodi is allowed on the furniture and in my bed and your dog would also be welcome to do so. I do give my dog people food treats. If you do not allow people food, please just let me know and I'll respect your wishes. The last thing I want to say is that my dog is my first priority, being that I'm only willing to watch dogs that get along well with my dog. So, I cannot promise any bookings without meeting you and your dog beforehand. I want dog sitting to be a positive experience for him and I do not want Bodi to be uncomfortable in his own home. 8/23/2019 UPDATE: My dog, Stella, passed away in March from osteosarcoma; but, I can't bring myself to remove her info from my profile yet. So, I'm adding this info as an update. Although I don't think I'm ready to get a new dog myself yet--because I still feel as though getting another dog would be trying to replace the irreplaceable-- I feel ok when around other people's dogs & feel as though I am ready to watch dogs again. In fact, being around dogs more, again, may be exactly what I need first, before getting another dog. All of that being said- despite my profile information & posted pictures, I do not have any dogs in my home so I would be able to watch dogs who may not be good with other dogs. I can watch more than 1 dog at a time, provided they are from the same household; but, I generally don't accept dogs from more than one household at a time. I set that rule/limit because I also had my own dog, so I may be willing to watch two dogs from different households...but, I wouldn't watch another dog from another household unless I had permission from both owners (first & foremost). Furthermore, I still would probably only do so only if I was already familiar with both dogs and/or felt very, very confident that neither dog's presence would negatively effect the other dog's experience. As a final note to owners of multiple dogs: Apparently, my thinking and experience(s) are contrary to Rover and or other Rover sitters in regards to watching two dogs from the same household. In my experience, whenever I have watched more than one dog from the same household, they have been easier to care for, and seem more calm and content. Therefore, instead of charging more for the second dog, my charge is $20 for the second dog. Additionally- I'm not sure what exactly my rate is for extended stays, based on my experience(s), extended-stays become easier and less time-intensive the longer the dog stays. As an example, I never expect to sleep much on the first night a dog stays over, simply because even when they're calm, they tend to wake up more often & obviously feel the need to go outside upon wakening. (However, being able to sleep through the night is an added bonus). So, I am willing to adjust my fees for well-behaved dogs staying longer than 3-4 nights. If and whenever that is the case, feel free to ask me about it, if I don't bring it up myself, during the meet n greet, asked prior to booking anything through the site. ___________________________________________________ Hi! I'm a dog person. As a kid, I grew up in a household with many dogs always coming and going so I am very comfortable with dogs. That being said, large and giant breed dogs hold a special place in my heart, and are my favorite. I am a college-educated professional and very trustworthy, and would be happy to meet in advance of taking care of your dog, in order to ease any concerns you may have about leaving a dog with a stranger. And, I could tell you more about myself over the phone, or in person. I also recognize I am new to Rover, and don't or probably won't have have any reviews or customers for a while, so if there's something I can say or do to ease any concerns you may have, feel free to let me know. I have one pet in my home, an 8-year-old female Bullmastiff named Stella, who is very, very laid back. Although I've known Stella her entire life, she came to live with me during the summer of 2017. She always lived with both male and female dogs of all sizes, and in a household with children, and has never displayed any behavioral issues or aggressive behavior. I think Stella gets a little lonely sometimes so she welcomes canine company. Every once in a while & depending on the personalities involved, the most 'aggression' Stella has ever displayed is a warning growl/light snap if she's eating a bully stick (her favorite), or when lying down in her spot on the sofa. It's an appropriate-level response & not aggressive. Actually, I think the only time she's ever even reacted like that, in any way, has been with dogs of her size or larger/taller than her. Even though I love the large dogs- I think Stella prefers dogs smaller than her. She seems to especially love dogs who nag her to play by running & jumping on and around her. Basically, I think she typically requires that the other dog motivate her to play ? (I think she also likes that she can play with the little dogs without having to do much of the running herself!) All in all, I think there's just a certain instant chemistry between certain dogs that make them immediate friends & good playmates. And, the reason I signed up on Rover is for Stella to have an occasional in-home playmate; however, Stella needs to feel comfortable in her own home, which is my first and foremost priority. Regarding house rules and what your pet may be accustomed to, I will adhere to any rules you set for your dog. Stella is allowed on the bed, and has a designated spot on the sofa. Your dog would be welcome on my furniture, if your dog is accustomed to that. However, I also have two ultra-comfortable dog beds (dimensions of each, 36"x 52"). I have exchanged dog-sitting favors with friends and neighbors and watched other dogs in my home for many years, but do not have any prior "professional" dog-sitting experience. MY HOME'S LAYOUT/SENIOR DOGS For anyone with senior dogs, my home is less than ideal, but can also be manageable for senior dogs. My home has a small fenced rear yard, but is a two-story home with the bedrooms located upstairs. There are also approximately 6-8 steps leading to the fenced yard. If your dog has a problem with the steps leading to the yard, I would be willing & able to walk the dog around the house to/from the yard without encountering the steps. I have hardwood flooring throughout my entire home (as well as ceramic and/or porcelain tile in the bathrooms). The stairs are hardwood floor treads with carpeted treads secured on top of the step. Although my stairs are certainly not the steepest stairs I've ever seen in an old home, they're still a bit more narrow and or steep than would be found in a newer home. Overall, my home may not be the best option for some senior dogs, but steps can be avoided as long as the dog is not accustomed to sleeping in the bedroom at night. That being said- I actually slept downstairs on my living room sofa (which has since been replaced) for 4-5 years when my previous dog was no longer able to climb the stairs. So, I'd probably sleep downstairs if I was watching a dog who couldn't climb the steps. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P. S. There is a question or checkmark on my Rover profile for me to answer as to whether anyone smokes in the home. The question is a little but unclear, and I marked mine as no smoking in the home. So, I would like to clarify that I am a smoker, but I don't smoke in my home. I'm currently home all the time so I have lots of time to give love and attention. My mother also lives with me so there's two people to get attention from. I have a small fenced in yard, but frequently take my dog for a walk or the dog park, or at least somewhere to get them out of the house on a rainy day (i.e. Bass Pro Shops)
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.
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.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - New Cumberland
“Kathy is the best dog walker. She truly loves dogs and dog people. She is a great communicator and is will be prolific with pictures of your pooch. I can’t recommend KATHY enough. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“If you want your fur babies in the best hands while away, Becky is definitely your new go to! My dog Louie is always so excited to see her for his walks. It’s hard for me to trust people with my four legged baby but Becky is amazing and does such an amazing job with him. I highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: With over four years of experience in house and pet sitting, I’ve learned that great care comes down to consistency, attention, and trust. I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, or just giving them the right kind of attention they’re used to—so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and respectful of your space, and I make it a point to communicate clearly so you always know how things are going. I approach every stay with the mindset that I’m not just watching over things—I’m making sure your home and pets are genuinely cared for. Right now, I'm working from home and occasionally have to do a few hours at a job site. If that happens I am aware of it and able to let you know via text, or a call. A typical day starts by following your pet’s usual routine—morning feedings, fresh water, and a quick check-in to see how they’re doing. For dogs, that usually means getting outside for a walk, some playtime, and a chance to burn off energy. For cats, it’s more about keeping things calm and familiar—maybe some play if they’re interested, or just quiet company. Throughout the day, I keep things consistent, give them attention on their terms, and make sure everything stays clean and comfortable. Evenings wind down with dinner, another walk for dogs, and some relaxed time so they can settle in for the night. I also send regular updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing and feel connected while you’re away—it’s all about keeping things normal, easy, and stress-free for both you and your pet.
About: I have been taking care of primarily cats since I was 5 years old, but have come to love our canine friends just as much over the years, and have taken care of many friends' and family's furry family members over the years. I pride myself on being an attentive caregiver, with a respect for animals' unique personalities and boundaries, allowing me to take the time to gain each animal's trust in their own time. My days are currently very free and I am available for all your pet care needs. As a night owl myself, I also am more than happy to take on late night/early morning work for the pet owners with more late-night oriented schedules. I promise to always be an attentive caregiver for your pets, making sure I always know their location within the property, providing photo/video status updates if you'd like, and monitoring their behavior for signs of their moods and needs. As someone who works well within structure, any schedule you provide for regular care tasks will be followed to a T. I respect that while I am taking care of your companion I am in both your home and theirs and will treat the space with the utmost respect. Please do inform me ahead of starting of any areas that are restricted to your pet and any other expectations you have for your space so I can ensure that all things run as though you never left!
“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’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a young child. I have taken care of my roommates, grandparents, and neighbors dogs consistently over the years. I love animals! I own a rabbit named Thor who my husband and I spend a lot of time caring for and loving in our apartment in Camp Hill, PA. I’m currently a school based occupational therapist and I have a very open schedule to walk and take care of your dog this summer and beyond. I look forward to meeting your dog or cat soon! I offer dog walks and taking care of dogs in their own home. I enjoy getting to know dogs and cats and building trust over time! I do not offer overnights in my own home at this time.
“Sandy does an AWESOME job for me on a weekly basis. There are times I cannot get home from work timely and I can always count on Sandy to give Lily a nice walk and dinner.....and treats as requested. Sandy is very informative with updates and pictures of each time she cares for my Lily. I am very particular who I have take care of Lily and finding Sandy has been a true blessing.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child and cats since I was in my 20s (20 years ago). I've had a pet gerbil, mouse, bunny, ferrets, and currently have a ball python. I'm great with animals, they like me. I've volunteered at a dog rescue. My friends all trust me with helping care for their pets and I've overnight sat for friends of friends before. Ive even helped on farms with sheep, goats, pigs, cows, chickens, and horses. I am ok with cleaning up messes if they happen and am used to very energetic dogs and cats with a lot of attitude. I am currently a part time schools bus driver with extra hours available in the middle of the day and evenings off. I'm also moonlighting as a stage hand and Hershey park shuttle driver which takes up some of my weekend adjacent evenings (but have those mornings off) I have a fenced in back yard that my dog (Patty, 9yo) loves. She gets two walks a day and eats fresh refrigerated dog food. My cat Malcolm, 3yo is an indoor/outdoor cat (we rescued him as kitten outside and he is half feral and demands being let outside). We live in a secluded neighborhood that has a cat on every corner so people know to drive slow. He gets dry and wet food (only accepts soupy broth style and we give him a lil cup 3 times a day). The best way to wake up is when they both are on the bed next to me. I will extend this same care to all pets and homes that I sit for/at. I clean them up and any messes they make be they poo, mud or vomit with a hairball in it.
About: I've taken care or have owned dogs my entire life. Last August, we lost our best friend, Nala, too soon. She was a German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP) and at the age of 5 was impacted by a very rare auto-immune disease especially for her breed. This was a tragic loss for my family and I and at this moment owning/adopting another dog would be hard. We don't want to ever experience that kind of pain. Having said that, we have so much love for animals and would be grateful to take care of your dog/cat as one of our own. Would prefer to pet sit in your home as we have 3 cats. However, boarding at our home is an option. It's mostly just my fiance Ashley and I living in the home as our adult boys are away at college. Please consider us for all of you pat care needs. Thank you! Working full-time but have a hybrid schedule. In the office 3 days a week but can be flexible. Available weekends and holidays for overnight boarding. I do not have a fenced in yard but there is a park nearby. I also walk/run several miles a day. We live in a 3-level condo with plenty of room for zoomies.
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 can walk them multiple times a day, and feed, groom, bath them as needed. I love going on walks, and would love bringing some dogs on a walk. I will give your dog all the love and attention needed while you are gone, and make sure that they get everything they needed, even dogs who have special needs, or senior dogs who need help getting around. 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.
About: I unfortunately don’t have any professional experience, but I do own 3 pets of my own. I take their health, safety, and mental/ emotional wellbeing very seriously. ( My years of experience are with my current pets.) I’m currently working part time and usually have Tuesdays- Thursdays off. For dog walking, there is a park a few minutes away from my home I would love to take them to. I have a nice sized yard and a dog friendly area. My two young cats are still somewhat timid, while my dog is exceptionally friendly. Your pet would reside in my bedroom and be taken for a walk either outside my house or a nearby park if necessary or requested.
About: Hi! I’m Christine, and I’m so happy you’re here! 😊 Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and being a pet sitter is truly something I love. I understand that pets aren’t “just pets” — they’re family — and I treat every dog or cat I care for with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or quiet and cuddly, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I love giving lots of affection, going on walks, sticking to routines, and making sure your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is happy and in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet and become your trusted go-to sitter! 🐾💕 Dependable and loving sitter experience. I currrently work from home and happy to care for pet in your home or mine. Daily photo/video updates. Cleaning food bowls and basic pet mess clean up. Plenty of attention, affection, and supervision I have a fenced in yard and two golden doodles who love to play. Skilled in maintaining a clean, safe environment. Reliable and attentive caregiver.
About: I have many years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, though I avoid working with overly aggressive dogs. I focus on dogs body language so I can approach them in a way that makes them feel safe. I offer walks, drop ins and playtime, where I bring patience and energy to match your dogs needs and wants. No matter the stage of life your dog is in, I am passionate about treating them all with equal love and attention. I work remotely on my own schedule so I am available weekdays and weekends! I am available all day long and can work pet care into my schedule. I focus on caring for animals in a very gentle and safe way. Respecting animals boundaries while providing them with the love and attention they need is of my highest priority and I particularly focus on making sure your animal feels safe and loved.
About: Animal lover since I was a kid growing up, I even had my own pet care service when I was a kid in my neighborhood. I am currently between jobs and have been doing some door dashing on the side and looking to add Rover to the mix. Rover will always take precedent. Available pretty much 24/7 at the moment. I treat all animals as my own. I will follow any rules that are given to me about your pets. I have had pets with all different temperaments and will adapt to whatever is needed.
About: I've taken care of all sorts of dogs ranging in size and need! I've given pills and insulin injections to some of the dogs I've watched and am very comfortable with those things. I've also watched chickens, turtles, and cats! I am a stay at home mom to 2 wonderful little boys! So I am readily available for your pet! We cannot wait to play and meet your pet! I have a fenced in yard. I have a small 8 lb dog that is unamused by other dogs and will keep his distance. Your dog can be crated if you'd prefer. I also have a toddler who knows to be gentle with our dog and will be with yours too.
About: I'm most experienced with dogs and cats. That said, I am willing to look after any pet! I've always had dogs of my own, and I previously volunteered at a shelter which gave me added experience walking dogs of many breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am also familiar with giving medications (pills/capsules, eye ointments), crating, automatic feeders, and self-cleaning litter robots. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I am able to accommodate both weekday and weekend requests at nearly any time. Your pets, your home, your rules! The clearer instructions the better, and please be open to answer questions where needed. I promise to do my best in following your guidelines to protect your space and animals!

About: I have been caring for family and friends pets for 8 years now and love the relationship I have built with all the animals. I have experienced with new kittens and senior cats. I also have experience with senior dogs and nervous dogs. I have kept pets in my house and the kids love them. Also I’ve done the occasional drop in as needed when friends go out of town or work late. I am currently a stay at home mom with my toddler which gives me the flexibility to come over and walk, play and watch your pets as needed. I always let the pets take the lead when first getting to know each other. We start in a small, comfortable and familiar space and then move to a large space, such as the yard before going out for walks if needed.
“We are so grateful that we found Kaitlin! She treated our Frankie like he was her own. She sent tons of updates and pictures, which made being apart from him much easier. Our boy came home exhausted from how much fun he had. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Michelle took such good care of Fury for our long weekend away! He was quite a handful and she handled him so well and with such a great attitude. She gave him tons of play time, walks, and affection while she was home with him. She stayed in constant communication while we were gone and gave us regular updates, including pictures and video of their time together. Michelle is great and I’m sure our pup will miss her!”
About: I have had several dogs and cats over the years. I love how they are always happy to see you and they love you unconditionally I'm pretty sure I will be a little lonely without my son. I hope to fill that space with some special pets I work full time day hours. I work 2 minutes down the street so I could check on them often and spend the evenings with them 😉 I love pets. I will treat them as if they were my own. My son is going to college in August and I will be an empty nester
“Jamie was great! Arthur was immediately comfortable with her family. She sent lots of updates and pictures. Daisy was a great playmate, I can always tell Arthur has had a good time when he comes home exhausted. I will definitely be booking with Jamie in the future!”
