“AMAZING! Words cannot express how grateful I am for Mike and his family! He took such great care of my puppy, Emmylou. It was like she was staying with family, not a pet service. Every day I was away I got pictures and videos and updates on how my girl was doing. Emmylou was so happy with them and their pup and others staying. The pictures speak for themselves on how happy Emmy was. I plan on using him as needed for boarding and occasional daycare. I felt completely at ease and at peace knowing my pup was in wonderful hands. I would recommend him 1000%. Absolutely blown away with her care! Rover.com is lucky to have him!”
“Megan and her family treated our pups like family. We did a meet and greet prior to boarding, and provided her with all of the information on our senior dog, and 6 month old puppy. One is very high energy, the other is not and takes meds daily. Throughout the two day stay, she consistently provided updates with pictures and videos. I would absolutely recommend Megan and will plan to call her again in the future, as needed.”
“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Johanny was so nice & welcomed me into her beautiful home. Was definitely a pleasure to meet her and to take good care of my little Coco. She sent me pictures & updates on how Coco was doing. I recommend her to anyone looking for a good dog sitter. I will be using her again when I need to.”

About: To me, pet sitting is never just a job; it is a commitment to keeping your best friend safe, happy, and loved. I know how deeply difficult it is to leave your dog behind. That is why my primary goal is to provide a seamless "home away from home" experience where your pet becomes a cherished part of my family. With over six years of dedicated dog care experience and as a proud parent to my own friendly 3.5-year-old dog, I understand canine behavior and companionship deeply. Your pup will instantly have a built-in playmate and a comforting routine. Your pup will never be lonely here, as I am home full-time to provide constant care, attention, and companionship, meaning our guest dogs enjoy round-the-clock supervision and love from dedicated adult. I maintain a reliable, active routine where our dog, Bruno, enjoys a 20 to 30-minutes walk twice every day, and your dog will be happily included in all of our daily strolls. While I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor exercise and socialisation. Inside, I offer an incredibly spacious layout designed for canine comfort. I have a dedicated separate room and a large, finished basement where guest dogs can freely play, run around, and sleep securely. To ensure a safe, healthy, and clean environment for our young toddler, our own dog, and your pup, I ask that all guest dogs be fully potty trained and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Beyond offering a fun environment, I bring peace of mind. I am highly experienced in administering oral medications, so you can rest assured that any specific healthcare routines your dog requires will be handled safely, accurately, and on time. Because we have a toddler, I maintain a very clean, structured, and safe home environment where all interactions between dogs and children are closely supervised. I treat every guest dog like a member of our own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and personalized care!
“Carole was great with my dog Brady for the week he was with her. Brady seemed to have a lot of fun and activity while he was at Carole’s place. I received updates and cute pictures throughout the week. She also was able to administer his medication to him without issue during the week. Overall I felt good know Carole was watching after my dog!”
“Theresa and her entire family have truly treated Sissy like family. Everything from drop off to pick up was easy and seamless. I have so much peace about leaving my dog for an entire week knowing how much she was going to be loved and cared for. We cannot thank you enough! Sissy loves you all!”
“I can't say enough about Scott! Not only were my dogs well taken care of and happy, but Scott sent us pictures and reports daily so we could keep up on their activities. We wouldn't hesitate to schedule with Scott again. I know our dogs would love to stay with him again.”
“To sum it up in one word AMAZING! This was my first time Isabella has not been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Maria and her family took wonderful care of her. I got pictures and updates multiple times a day. Maria responded quickly if I had any questions. She also checked with me prior to doing anything we did not discuss at drop off to be sure I was ok with it. Isabella had such a wonderful time I don’t think she wanted to leave lol. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”
“George was excellent with my dog Mojo. Mojo is a very timid dog and George was perfect for him. He would regularly send us videos and Mojo was happy and having so much fun. George is great and I would recommend him for anyone.”
“My Murphy was in exceptional care with Kimberly. In the photos she sent I could truly tell my baby was happy. She provided attention and love. Already planning using Kimberly in a couple months and probably even day visits beforehand. I am extremely satisfied with her service she provided.”
“Tracy was amazing taking care of Checho! From the moment we met, I could tell she was a true dog lover. She was incredibly attentive and made sure Checho felt comfortable and happy while I was away. Tracy kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. When I returned, Checho was relaxed and clearly had a great time. I highly recommend Tracy to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She truly went above and beyond!”

About: I have cared for pets of all ages and breeds. I am comfortable handling and walking energetic youngsters and senior dogs that require a little more patience I have a full time job that has flexible hours. Some days I am available all day and other days I have to leave for a few hours but I’m always back home for dinner time or walks around the neighborhood I care for all pets as if they were my own. I appreciate their personalities and quirks. I am excited to add more animals to my pet sitting fam!
“Phoebe is amazing!! She is so good with both of our pups!! She's easy to book and we're so comfortable leaving our 4 legged loved ones in her hands!! She provides lots of pictures and a nice recap of her visit!! So happy we found her and our pups love her!”
About: I have had cats my whole life; currently, I have two sassy girls. I had four cats at the same time once, and though it was chaotic and a lot to handle, I loved being surrounded by so many little fur balls at once. I have watched cats for my friends and family while their owners were away or on vacation, and everything went smoothly. I know that there is nothing extraordinary that sets me apart from others, but I would love your cats as if they were my own. I even treat stray cats and animals the same way. I am fully capable and of caring for these babies and I look forward to proving that!
“We we're visitors in town and needed someone to let our dogs out while we attended an event. Colleen was prompt and took good care of our senior dogs who needed a little help getting in and out of our RV. She sent pictures both days to let us know they were doing well.”
“Avery was wonderful! Very kind and attentive. She made the process of being out of town so much less stressful as a pet owner. My dog clearly loved her and I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs pet care!”
“Michael came over to our house 2 times a day to feed our 2 Rottie shepherd mixes and let them out to use the bathroom. Him and his family were so great with the dogs! Our dogs are incredibly happy and looked like they had the best time ever in every pic! Michael came over in advance to meet the puppies and get an idea of what we needed, which I really appreciated! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our babies. If you are on the fence about who to select and reading everyone’s reviews like I did, I can say Michael was great and we will be recurrent customers for sure and plan on rebooking him for future travels we have coming up! Thank you so much again Michael and family! Our puppies are so happy!”
“Kasey is great!!!!! She’s always available and willing to stop in or house sit. My dog can be picky with strangers but Kasey is so good with her and my dog loves her! She’s always very responsible and respectful while staying at my house and sends me daily updates which I greatly appreciate! I trust her and feel comfortable knowing my pets are well cared for while I’m away. Highly recommend!!”

“michael had great communication with me all day! was super understanding of behavior issues with my dog as she was out of daycare for a while and her behavior as a rescue dog. will absolutely continue services with them in the future”
“Very nice family. They provided the highest level of attention to my pet. They were versatile and adapted their schedule to accommodate our Stella. Stella loved going to stay with them.”
“Our two dogs seemed to be at ease with Megan during a four hour "day care" at her residence. They came home happy, tired and healthy. I think that's a good sign. I met her two dogs and found them to be gentle and well-behaved. Although our dogs were with her for only a four hour stay that day, she still somehow managed to get nice, little walk in for them! At this point, I feel comfortable with Megan and her ability to care for our doggies and would use her service again. She's very professional, cordial and accommodating. She provided quick responses every time I had questions. Thanks!”
About: I’m David, a dedicated Pet Pawtrait Photographer 🐾📸 and the owner of Charlie’s Pet Pawtraits & Boutique in the Lehigh Valley, PA. Caring for dogs isn’t just a job for me it’s a heartfelt passion inspired by my beloved pup Charlie, who was with me for over 11 wonderful years. Losing him was tough, but it left me with an abundance of love 💙 I’m eager to share with other dogs through both personalized care and capturing their spirit through photography. I offer a boutique, home-like dog care environment 🏡 where I never take in more than 1–3 dogs at a time, ensuring your dog receives plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime in our spacious indoor gallery, and adventures on the nearby D&L Trail as well as numerous local parks 🚶🌳🐕. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and peace of mind are my top priorities I treat every pup as if they were my own family. I’m also a proud dad to a mature 10 year old who lovingly helps me care for dogs, adding to the warm and nurturing atmosphere 👧❤️. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a calm senior, or anywhere in between, I’m patient and adaptable to their needs. As a special thank you for choosing my care, I’ll send you beautiful photos of your dog enjoying their stay and if you’d like, high quality non watermarked downloads of these photos are available upon request 🎁✨. This way, you get to see just how happy and comfortable your pup is during their time with us! In addition to care, I offer pet portrait sessions either in my studio or at your favorite location and many pet owners enjoy choosing one of our recommended local spots near the studio for a special outing and photoshoot 🎞️🐶. I’m excited to meet your pup and provide a personalized, loving experience that truly sets us apart from typical kennel style sitters. As the owner of our pet photography boutique and photography studio 🐾📸, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pet. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I prioritize making sure every pup in my care feels loved and well attended to 💙. My 10 year old daughter, who is mature and gentle 👧❤️, is often excited to help out and meet new furry friends, adding to the loving, family like environment. Pet care is truly integrated into our daily life and brings so much joy to both of us 😊. This balance allows me to provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime 🐕🎾, and peaceful rest moments for every dog, while also continuing to grow my photography passion and business. Your pets will be treated with the same love and care I gave my own beloved pup 🐕❤️ a love that was abundant and unconditional. I create a safe, nurturing environment 🏡 where every dog feels comfortable, valued, and truly at home. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with attentive, compassionate care that puts their well being first 🐾😊.
“Renata has been great so far in watching our 9 week old puppy while I work during the day! He comes home sleepy sometimes so we know he's getting enough playtime! We will definitely continue to use her when needed.”
“Lori is the sweetest person I have ever met!! She was extremely kind to not only me but my dog as well. She went above and beyond and was incredibly flexible and understanding. She treated my dog like it was her own. I will always book my dog at her place because I know my dog has a great time there :)”
“Brooke and Jeremy were amazing for doggy daycare. They were incredibly accommodating with my early work hours, which made everything so much easier for me. My pup tends to be pretty anxious, but they handled him with so much care and patience-it really gave me peace of mind. I truly appreciate the attention and effort they put into making him comfortable. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have had my own to love and take care of for over 25 years. I specialize in care for seniors since I have been blessed with my fur babies living into their teens. I also have years of experience with puppies and all ages in between. I am extremely comfortable administering medication and caring for pups who have special needs. In this house, dogs really are part of the family and are more than welcome to snuggle up on the couch! I only care for one pup family at a time, so other than my sweet little guy, it’s just your pup (or pups)! Since I work remotely, I have the perfect environment to provide pet care. My youngest child just left for college, so I now have even more schedule flexibility. In my home for day care or boarding, all dogs are treated as if they live here. I have an open concept home, so they can be with me and my pup as much or as little as they choose. I can also put up baby gates if they prefer to be separated from my little guy. I offer a clean and smoke-free home. When caring for your pets in your home, I will adhere to all special requests and respect your home as if it were my own.

About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I bring over 50 years of hands-on experience working with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a former veterinary technician, I’m comfortable with everything from giving medications to caring for senior pets and puppies who need extra attention. I know how to spot signs of stress, discomfort, or illness early, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, training reinforcement, or simply making sure your furry friend feels safe and loved, I go the extra mile to keep tails wagging and owners at ease.

I work full-time, but my evenings (after 5pm), Tuesdays, and weekends are dedicated to spending quality time with pets. At home, I share my life with two sweet cats of my own, so there’s never a day that doesn’t involve a little extra love, play, or purring. I also volunteer regularly at my local cat sanctuary, so even when I’m not with Rover pets, I’m surrounded by whiskers, paws, and wagging tails. Pet care isn’t just something I do — it’s truly who I am. I specialize in caring for pets right where they’re most comfortable — in their home! This means your pets get to stick to their normal routine, sleep in their favorite spots, and enjoy all the comforts they’re used to.

I’ve shared my life with four amazing dogs, from 3 German Shepherds to my current miniature Labradoodle, and I understand firsthand the joy, companionship, and unique personalities that make every dog special. I grew up training and caring for my family's German Shepherds at a young age, learning patience, consistency, and clear communication with dogs of attitudes. My hands-on experience with both large and small breeds, combined with a lifelong love for dogs, sets me apart as a sitter who truly understands and connects with all dogs! I am currently looking for part-time work while attending law school. I have about four hours of class each day, but my schedule is sporadic, which allows me to return home in time to let dogs out within 1–2 hours of being gone. Additionally, I have breaks on Fridays and am fully available on weekends, making it easy for me to provide attentive care, walks, and playtime for pets. I care for pets in my clients’ homes with attention, love, and flexibility. At home, I spend quality time with my miniature Labradoodle, Lilly, playing with toys indoors and tossing balls outside, and we go on walks every day. When dog sitting, I tailor the activity to each dog’s needs—whether it’s an energetic puppy who loves extended walks or an older dog who prefers a shorter, gentle stroll. For in-home pet care, I ensure the dog is always comfortable, safe, and happy in their familiar environment. I follow the routine provided by the owner as closely as possible, from feeding schedules to playtime and rest periods. If I notice anything unusual in their behavior, appetite, or overall health, I immediately contact the owner to confirm whether it’s part of their typical routine or something that needs attention. My goal is to provide peace of mind to owners while giving their pets individualized care, companionship, and lots of affection.
About: What sets me apart is my pawsitive approach to pet care and my deep understanding of animal behavior, thanks to both hands-on experience and professional training. I’m a proud graduate of the Dog Grooming School of Pennsylvania, which not only sharpened my grooming skills but also taught me how to read canine body language, manage different temperaments, and create a calm, safe environment for pets of all ages. I specialize in puppy basics—like crate training, potty routines, and leash manners—as well as senior pet care, including medication reminders, slow strolls, and plenty of comfort-focused attention. I bring a lot of patience, love, and structure to every visit, ensuring your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away. With me, your pet will always be surrounded by Pawsitive energy, gentle care, and a true love for animals. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home and manage grooming clients on the side. This gives me plenty of flexibility and extra time to play, snuggle, and care for your fur babies throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I’m able to give them the attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet becomes part of my day, not just part of my schedule. When caring for pets in my home, they become part of the pack! I have very friendly, playful pups who love making new friends, and we have about 1 acre of fully fenced-in yard for safe exploring and zoomies. There are doggie pools, toys, and lots of fun enrichment activities to keep your fur baby happy, active, and entertained. Inside, pets enjoy a cozy, stress-free environment with plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet like my own—whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or nap time, they’ll always feel safe and right at home. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and comfortable for them. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels happy, secure, and loved, no matter where they are!
About: I have cared for pets of all ages and breeds. I am comfortable handling and walking energetic youngsters and senior dogs that require a little more patience I have a full time job that has flexible hours. Some days I am available all day and other days I have to leave for a few hours but I’m always back home for dinner time or walks around the neighborhood I care for all pets as if they were my own. I appreciate their personalities and quirks. I am excited to add more animals to my pet sitting fam!
About: I have taken care of all different types of animals growing up.I grew up with a household full of dogs, and have gotten the chance to have dogs of my own now. I have watched and did weekend house sitting for friends/family. I have experience with most dog breeds. I have watched/taken care of a Cane Corso, Neapolitan Mastiff, and many other larger dog breeds. I have a two year old 160 pound Great Dane named Atticus and a 45 pound pitbull mix that are my entire world. I have experience with animals with diabetes and special diets. I love the outdoors and taking adventures with fur babies. I love the outdoors regardless of the weather, looking to take so more walks! I mostly work nights, my daytime and weekends are completely free. I have a fenced in yard, with many trails around me. I always keep a close eye on dogs when outside even in a fenced in yard.

“Kathleen is reliable, highly observant, and genuinely passionate about animals. This was observable through her friendly and warm demeanor, and compassionate verbal and physical interactions with Haru and his responsiveness to her. Her photo update was sincerely appreciated and gave a secure sense of transparency. The environment was clean, organized and provided ample free space for indoor and outdoor movement.”
“David is Wonderful, pets , sitter He care with attention to details, follow up , professionalism, and love . We were gone for a week and he gives the best care to my two dogs . He updated us with a beautiful pictures .. thank you David”
“AMAZING! Words cannot express how grateful I am for Mike and his family! He took such great care of my puppy, Emmylou. It was like she was staying with family, not a pet service. Every day I was away I got pictures and videos and updates on how my girl was doing. Emmylou was so happy with them and their pup and others staying. The pictures speak for themselves on how happy Emmy was. I plan on using him as needed for boarding and occasional daycare. I felt completely at ease and at peace knowing my pup was in wonderful hands. I would recommend him 1000%. Absolutely blown away with her care! Rover.com is lucky to have him!”
“Megan and her family treated our pups like family. We did a meet and greet prior to boarding, and provided her with all of the information on our senior dog, and 6 month old puppy. One is very high energy, the other is not and takes meds daily. Throughout the two day stay, she consistently provided updates with pictures and videos. I would absolutely recommend Megan and will plan to call her again in the future, as needed.”
“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Johanny was so nice & welcomed me into her beautiful home. Was definitely a pleasure to meet her and to take good care of my little Coco. She sent me pictures & updates on how Coco was doing. I recommend her to anyone looking for a good dog sitter. I will be using her again when I need to.”

About: To me, pet sitting is never just a job; it is a commitment to keeping your best friend safe, happy, and loved. I know how deeply difficult it is to leave your dog behind. That is why my primary goal is to provide a seamless "home away from home" experience where your pet becomes a cherished part of my family. With over six years of dedicated dog care experience and as a proud parent to my own friendly 3.5-year-old dog, I understand canine behavior and companionship deeply. Your pup will instantly have a built-in playmate and a comforting routine. Your pup will never be lonely here, as I am home full-time to provide constant care, attention, and companionship, meaning our guest dogs enjoy round-the-clock supervision and love from dedicated adult. I maintain a reliable, active routine where our dog, Bruno, enjoys a 20 to 30-minutes walk twice every day, and your dog will be happily included in all of our daily strolls. While I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor exercise and socialisation. Inside, I offer an incredibly spacious layout designed for canine comfort. I have a dedicated separate room and a large, finished basement where guest dogs can freely play, run around, and sleep securely. To ensure a safe, healthy, and clean environment for our young toddler, our own dog, and your pup, I ask that all guest dogs be fully potty trained and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Beyond offering a fun environment, I bring peace of mind. I am highly experienced in administering oral medications, so you can rest assured that any specific healthcare routines your dog requires will be handled safely, accurately, and on time. Because we have a toddler, I maintain a very clean, structured, and safe home environment where all interactions between dogs and children are closely supervised. I treat every guest dog like a member of our own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and personalized care!
“Carole was great with my dog Brady for the week he was with her. Brady seemed to have a lot of fun and activity while he was at Carole’s place. I received updates and cute pictures throughout the week. She also was able to administer his medication to him without issue during the week. Overall I felt good know Carole was watching after my dog!”
“Theresa and her entire family have truly treated Sissy like family. Everything from drop off to pick up was easy and seamless. I have so much peace about leaving my dog for an entire week knowing how much she was going to be loved and cared for. We cannot thank you enough! Sissy loves you all!”
“I can't say enough about Scott! Not only were my dogs well taken care of and happy, but Scott sent us pictures and reports daily so we could keep up on their activities. We wouldn't hesitate to schedule with Scott again. I know our dogs would love to stay with him again.”
“To sum it up in one word AMAZING! This was my first time Isabella has not been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Maria and her family took wonderful care of her. I got pictures and updates multiple times a day. Maria responded quickly if I had any questions. She also checked with me prior to doing anything we did not discuss at drop off to be sure I was ok with it. Isabella had such a wonderful time I don’t think she wanted to leave lol. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”
“George was excellent with my dog Mojo. Mojo is a very timid dog and George was perfect for him. He would regularly send us videos and Mojo was happy and having so much fun. George is great and I would recommend him for anyone.”
“My Murphy was in exceptional care with Kimberly. In the photos she sent I could truly tell my baby was happy. She provided attention and love. Already planning using Kimberly in a couple months and probably even day visits beforehand. I am extremely satisfied with her service she provided.”
About: Hi! My name is Joan. I am recently retired and live on a farm. I have had dogs most of my life and have felt the passion to start dog sitting after losing our 15 yr old beloved dog fairly recently. I sure miss having furry four legged ones around to share my love for dogs, and want to be able to love on yours as I would my own. Having used Rover many times in the past for our own dog over the years, I know how very important it is to find someone you know you can trust to love & care for your pup, that perfect place that you won’t have to worry about them while you hoomans are away, that would be Me! I live on a farm with lots of acreage for running and playing. I also have experience with administering medications if needed. I want to make a worry free home away from home experience for your best friend(s) while mom & dad are away. With being retired, and pretty much a homebody, I will make sure that I will be home at all times to care for your pup. Potty breaks and play time will be frequent, with living on a farm we will be sure and have plenty of walking and running space for your pup. I live on a tucked off the road farm with plenty of acreage to run and play. Our farm is not a working farm, meaning we have no farm animals on the property. I have never crated any of my dogs, therefore I would not be crating yours unless of course you ask me to and provide the crate.
“Jennifer was so understanding, kind, and compassionate with my anxious senior dog. I used her for an overnight visit and my quickly felt comfortable at her home. I highly recommend her and hope to use her services again!”

“jean was great! my pup was a little unsure about meeting new people at first, but jean was very attentive and stayed in touch with us to make sure all of his needs were met”
