“Great communication and flexibility. They also offered a half price trial overnight which was a great idea. I was uncertain how Riley would do with young children as she’s never had experience with kids younger than middle school age and having this trial before a week long stay made me more comfortable. Riley had a good time with them and Dunkin. We’ve booked that week long stay.”

“Such a wonderful experience. Loved all the pictures and videos sent. My Sasha had such a wonderful time playing with all the pups and yard. Will plan for the next stay as my dog is so happy with her stay.”

“Pamela was very responsive and kept me updated throughout JuJu’s stay. She has a large, fenced in yard that provided plenty of space for play and exercise. It was clear that JuJu was well cared for, and I appreciated the regular communication and peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Pamela and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”

“We are very happy to leave our dog Peaches with Alexandra. She and her family did a great job caring for our dog. We can go about with our travel plans knowing that Peaches is in a loving home environment. I would gladly recommend her for any pet owners looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Alexandra and family for your help with Peaches!”

“Have left our little boy Brady with them multiple times and its obvious he looks forward to his time with them. He always comes home tired from so much playtime. Can not recommend them enough. It's Brady's home away from home!”

“Justin and Stephanie were absolutely wonderful! Their communication was excellent from start to finish, and they immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease leaving Gunner in their care. I especially appreciated that they sent photos and updates without me even having to ask. It was so reassuring to see how well he was doing. Most importantly, Gunner was extremely happy and clearly had a great time with them! It means so much to know he was well cared for and comfortable while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Justin and Stephanie to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring sitters. I look forward to booking with them again in the future!”

“Our girl Kelsea came back from Grace’s home a very Happy Girl !! Grace took wonderful care of our dog and allowed us to have a “good time” and not worry about our girl !! Grace even sent pics of Kelsea’s stay. We have already booked again with Grace ! Thank you Grace 😊🩵”

“We highly recommend Jenn. Our dogs are nervous with other dogs but Jenn's patient and gentle approach completely won them over. They went from anxious to having a great time during their stay. We will definitely book again!”

“Had another great dog sitting experience with Jill and Chad… our Plott Hound mix, Luna, is always happy when we go on vacation because she gets to go have fun too, lol. 😂 Jill and Chad are quick to respond and always keep us abreast of anything we need to know regarding Luna’s stay and they send us photos and updates so we can see what she’s up to. I wish we lived a little closer but they are worth traveling a bit farther for. Overall a great experience and they are our go-to dog sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Jessica was very accommodating throughout the process. She even agreed to having our furbabies meet before the stay so I was comfortable with their likeness to each other. She was also very accommodating and get me updated on my little Oliver was doing. Would definitely book again with Jessica :)”

“Everything went well with my dog's overnight stay. She got her walks and Sandra communicated with me throughout her stay with photos. Much appreciated Sandra! Hope to use your services again. Lisa H.”

“Peter loves going to Geosselyn's house! She sends the cutest pictures of him during his stay there. Peter loves exploring her large, fenced-in yard. Peter comes home well rested and calm. You can tell that Geosselyn loves caring for dogs. We will definitely book again with her!”

“Melanie and her family were amazing… Daisy is exhausted from all of the fun that she had. She was kind, and sent pictures and made Daisy feel like family. We are so appreciative.”

“Thomas and his sons took great care of Tucker while I was away. He responded quickly every time I reached out and Tucker seemed right at home when I picked him up at the end of his stay!”


“This is my very first time using Rover to gin weekend did a wonderful job caring for my 2 year old cat Ninja over the weekend. Colleen’s home was clean and she’s seems to have alot of experience dealing with pets. My cat had never been around a dog before, and Colleen took the time to allow them to acquaint them and they just left each other alone, no fighting.”

“Just had our 2nd stay with Barbra and it was fantastic! She takes such great care of our dog and we will be using her anytime we can. I think our dog was very sad to leave with all the fun he had playing and roaming her huge yard. Highly recommend her services!!!”


About: I have taken care of dogs, my whole life whether they were my own or somebody else’s I absolutely love animals your animal will always be safe in my care and have the best time. I’m currently a stay at home mom so if I leave the house, I only leave to go to the grocery store or to grab the little one something to eat if they want it I have a huge backyard my house backs up against the woods. We are not close to the road at all. You’re dog would never be let outside alone my kids would run around in the backyard with them 💕
“Gisel did an awesome job accommodating my last minute emergency need to board my dog for a few days. She was patient, responsive and flexible given this was the first time I ever used this service. I would definitely use her again.”

“The best sitter we could ask for. Our cat, Bruce, was sick while we were out of town and Bethany went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and had everything he needed to feel better. An angel.”


“Kat is fantastic! My two very shy cats loved Kat; she kindly spent time with both of them during each drop in visit we scheduled for 5 consecutive days and provided us with daily pics/updates. I highly recommend Kat for any pet sitting or walking needs. Thanks, Kat!”


About: My background spans the entire lifecycle of pet care, from nurturing young animals to providing compassionate senior care. I am entirely comfortable with specialized care requirements, including administering oral or topical medications, managing strict measurements or raw diets, and providing a calm, low-stress environment for high-anxiety or nervous pets. Whether I am caring for high-energy cats of any lifestyle, including indoor residents, outdoor explorers, and independent or "spicy" felines, I excel at reading animal body language, respecting boundaries, and treating every guest with the same safety, attention, and love that I give to my own best friends.
“THANK YOU MARIAN YOU WERE PHENOMENAL! Marian sent us very detailed notes on what our three kitties were up to each time she visited- and tons of great photos, always showing she took time to give them playtime and extra love! She had no problem administering meds and caring for our medically complex boy. Marian’s detailed updates were perfect for a helicopter pet parent like me- Highly recommend!!”

“Sophia was incredibly responsive, did a great job with everything I asked her, and left great, thorough reviews and notes! Would not hesitate to have her stop back again!”


“Dylan did a fantastic job with our menagerie while we were gone for just over a week. Dylan had to deal with one dog and three cats (though two cats decided to play invisible for the duration - they are very skittish). I believe Dylan went over and above what we asked for and we would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Dylan to any prospective clients. Dylan is obviously a true animal lover. We will definitely be requesting Dylan look after our pets in the future should we require this type of service again. Dylan provided regular updates with photos and it was obvious from the huge grin on our little dogs face (she's a smiler) that she was loving every minute of the attention. One of the cats even showed face to get in on the action. A heartfelt thanks goes out to Dylan for the service he provided.”


“Lila was on time everyday, no issues whatsoever. Out of my 3 cats, one can be difficult to deal with because she’s scared of everything. From what I saw Lila was actually able to get close to her. Very satisfied with her services.”


“Mason was a phenomenal pet sitter. She was able to fulfill my need for a pet sitter during a holiday weekend, given less than 2 weeks notice. Mason gave prompt reports on my cat and even fed my aquarium fish and watered my indoor plants. She was patient with my feisty indoor cat, responding mindfully to my cat’s communication cues demanding space. I highly recommend Mason! 5/5 stars”


“Aria is absolutely wonderful! I could see she was connecting with my cats every visit. Everything was is great order when I got home including food well taken care of and the litter box tidy! I will most certainly ask to use Aria again!!”


About: I love animals with personality! Cat's particularly have unique characteristics that are a once-in-a-lifetime find for every purring spirit I come across! I do not offer boarding for cats in my home, but I will gladly house-sit your purring fur faces!

About: I've been around cats my entire life and began fostering kittens in middle school, giving me experience with cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. As a veterinarian, I'm comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering medications, and caring for senior cats or those with medical conditions. Whether your cat is shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I'll provide compassionate, attentive care while keeping their routine as stress-free as possible.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life, and I got my first dog at 16. My dog is a mastiff mix, who was unfortunately a covid puppy, leaving her with little socialisation, causing her to be reactive around other animals. We have both been learning from each other everyday and I have been working with and training her since she was a puppy. Throughout the years she has gotten much more confident in herself; even having dog friends now and a younger puppy sister. I have also worked with senior dogs, adminstering medication as needed and helping assist with activities. I have worked with other animals as well, of all different sizes, so I am confident in my ability to read body language and take care of the dogs as needed I am a full-time college student, who is working part-time, and with a chaotic schedule, finding a job for a business is difficult due to my availibilty. I have several animals of my own, making spending time and taking care of them the highlight of my day. I love and treat animals just as the family they are, so when working with others animals, it feels like more of a reward than a job, which I feel is crucial when being a full-time college student and trying to make a living. All of my animals are family and are treated as such, so when taking care of others dogs, I treat them with the same mindset; providing care, love, fun and respect.

About: I have owned cats my entire life and currently foster cats/kittens for the hero rescue. I am patient with scared and/or aggressive kitties and know to give them the space they need to feel comfortable around me.
About: I’ve attended the TCHS animal science program for 3 years where I’ve worked with many small animals, and have learned how to handle them, care for them etc I’m now attending Harcum College in the major Animal center Management. Animals are what I’m passionate about. I’m currently working part time, and go to school, but am looking for a side job, and what’s better than playing with puppies? I would love nothing better. In my clients home I will treat their pets like my own. I will respect the space and your privacy as if it was my own.

“Elizabeth was extremely caring and responsible for our two cats during a month long trip during the winter (including bad weather). We would definitely recommend her for providing care for any fur family members.”


“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”

“Trisha took excellent care of my very timid & shy cat, Stella, as well as my house. She sent twice daily updates along with pictures. My girl seemed very content & chill upon my return. Would definitely recommend!”


“Jessa was so patient with my dogs - as they required a lot of attention!! She was very responsive and I didn't have to worry about my pups while she was there! Highly recommend!”

“Our terrier mix puppy has been going to Grace’s for a few weeks now (2x weekly for a full work day) and I can’t say enough good things! My husband and I found Grace because on the days my husband can’t come home during lunch, we didn’t want our puppy to be crated or left unattended all day. Grace and her family treat our puppy like their own dog, she becomes part of their family while she’s there. She gets tons of playtime, attention, affection. I absolutely love seeing the “report card” pictures after each day. It’s very clear my puppy is well cared for during her visits. It’s now to the point when we’re pulling up to Grace’s, our puppy gets excited because she knows where she’s at! 10/10 recommend!”

Overall, I love every type of animal, and even though I do not have a dog of my own currently, I hope to add a furry friend to my family shortly after I grow my family. :)

“Beauty and her pack are wonderful! I can’t recommend Beauty enough to any pet owner! Our dog Freya had an amazing time and Beauty was very flexible when our plan changed to a later pick up time. She even offered to let Freya stay the night if that worked better for us. I can’t thank Beauty and the pack enough for giving us peace of mind when we can’t be with Freya!”

“Susan is wonderful, so kind and caring, and I can tell that Finlay loves being at her house. He goes into her home with his tail wagging and always comes home happy and tired. It’s a relief knowing he’s in a warm, loving home while I’m away. Highly recommend Susan.”

About: I grew up on a 25 acre cow farm. As a child I had every pet imaginable. As a mother I allowed my children to experience owning pets. My 2 youngest grown children have dogs and they are my grand dogs lol. We are a horse family. I have a degree in education and have been a teacher for ever. If I can be trusted with children then you can certainly trust me with you pets. I currently don’t have any pets due to where I live. The landlord is strict on the no pets policy. I know it’s a bummer 👎 All my children are grown so I have evenings and weekends free 👍 I know pets can be considered as a family member so I will take care of them as if they are my own children. I will provide plenty of extra love and kisses.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of dedicated pet care experience & share an instant bond with almost every pet I meet. As a proud pet parent to a 6 year old Heeler who is my absolute best friend and a cat I rescued from my driveway at just 6 weeks old, I have hands on, daily experience managing diverse temperaments, intense exercise needs, and strict routines. My background spans the entire lifecycle of pet care, from nurturing young animals to providing compassionate senior care. I am entirely comfortable with specialized care requirements, including administering oral or topical medications, managing strict measurements or raw diets, and providing a calm, low-stress environment for high-anxiety or nervous pets. Raising a high energy working dog and a rescue kitten gives me firsthand experience with the unique needs, quirks, and daily routines of both dogs and cats. Pet care is my top priority and full-time focus. I am currently launching independent entrepreneurial ventures from home, which gives me complete control over my daily calendar and ultimate flexibility. I am available almost any time of day or week to dedicate myself fully to your pet. Your animal bestie will be my main priority, receiving constant supervision, timely potty breaks, and companionship. My flexible routine lets me adapt to your pet's exact daily schedule, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and fully cared for while you are away. Safety, structure, and peace of mind are the foundations of how I care for animals, whether they are staying at my home or yours. In my own household, my dog safely enjoys our yard because he knows his boundaries and responds instantly to commands. My cat on the other hand, lives a secure indoor lifestyle, with the occasional supervised leash walk! :) When caring for your pets, I balance absolute safety with plenty of engagement. For dogs, I maintain a strict policy of keeping them securely on a leash at all times unless we are within a securely fenced area, eliminating any risk of a dog running loose. Rest assured, structured fun is still a massive part of our day; we will enjoy plenty of energetic games, walks, and playtime, all while ensuring your furry family member remains completely safe and protected!

My schedule is very flexible, and we can always talk about what times work best for you and your pet’s needs. I am well-versed in the animal language. Having many pets of my own and other experiences with animals, I can understand exactly what your pet needs. I am a fun loving person that has lots of love and comfort for your animal!

She’s very communicative and I can tell she takes great care of all the pets that are in her charge. I would highly recommend Kendall for your pet sitting/walking needs any time!”

About: Hi, I’m Sophie! I attended a vocational trade school where I studied Animal Science for three years. I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of small and large animals, while learning proper handling and restraints, health and behavior, as well as how to safely administer oral and injectable medications. Through my training, I became certified in animal first aid and CPR. I also have experience caring for puppies/kittens, senior animals and pets with special needs, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining consistent routines. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and also worked at a kennel in high school, so I have spent years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Because of that, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I give the best care and attention that I possibly can. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing in the yard, relaxing on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, we are committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. We will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive, reliable care. We understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in the care of someone else, and our goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member! :) Hey! I’m Dylan and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a ton of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and have always had multiple pets at a time, so I learned responsibility and animal care at a young age. I currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats of my own, and I love spending time with them—whether it’s going on runs with my dogs or cuddling up with my cats. I’m calm, patient, and always make sure animals feel safe and cared for. I treat every animal like they’re my own, with love and respect. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some playtime, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently working a full-time job Monday through Thursday, from 6am until anywhere between 3pm and 5pm, depending on the day. I have Saturdays and Sundays off, and occasionally Fridays. Sophie works 2pm to 10pm a few days a week, her schedule is different every week. Since our schedules are opposite and Sophie has a bit more free time, one of us is always available to spend a good amount of time with your pet. The first thing we do when taking care of our own pets, or others pets, is let them out to go to the bathroom. Next, we prioritize feeding and medicating (if necessary) and cleaning and refilling all water bowls. Once everything important is taken care of, we then spend quality time with them, whether it’s playing fetch, cuddling or going for a walk. Before we leave, we make sure we let them back outside for a good while to make sure they take care of all of their business.

Please be advised if your pet cannot be alone for more than just a few hours, I still work a full time job, so some days I might be working an 8 hour shift. My schedule changes week to week, so some days I might be able to stay with your pet the entire day but that will depend on my work schedule. Currently I am not able to care for any pets in my own home, but I very flexible and can care for your animals however you wish in your home.
About: I have several years of experience dog-sitting for my neighbors every summer. I find joy in keeping pets entertained and cared for when their families are away. In addition to dogs, I have experience with a variety of animals, including rabbits, cats, a bird, and my own dog. I can ensure the safety and high-quality care for any pet you have. I am currently balancing a part-time job with my full-time college studies. Due to these commitments, I may not be available for 24/7 in-home care with less than two weeks' notice. To ensure I can dedicate my full attention to your pet, I would greatly appreciate as much advance notice as possible. Please feel free to inquire about my schedule, as I am willing to collaborate with you to find a mutually agreeable arrangement, provided there is flexibility on both sides. For in-home dog-sitting, I would prefer to crate the dog, due to having cats. Because of this, I would prefer to watch the dog in your home.
About: Hi! My name is Julia, and I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I have owned both dogs and cats since I was a child, so caring for pets has always been a natural and important part of my life. I have several years of experience with dog sitting and house sitting, and I understand how important it is to know your pets and home are in caring, trustworthy hands. I love all pets and enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion nearby, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you are away. I am dependable, attentive, and respectful of each family’s home and pet care preferences. I would be happy to care for your furry family member and give them the same love and attention I would give my own pets! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’m used to planning my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, check-ins, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I enjoy having pets as part of my routine, whether that means starting the day with a walk, stopping by for a midday visit, or spending quiet time with a cat who just wants company nearby. I’m dependable and flexible, and I understand that pets do best when their normal schedule is followed as closely as possible. I’m happy to adjust my routine to match each pet’s needs, whether they need extra attention, medication reminders, playtime, or just someone calm and caring to keep them company while their family is away. I care for pets with patience, respect, and attention to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications or special needs, favorite toys, and any house rules. I know pets feel safest when things stay familiar, so I do my best to keep their routine calm and consistent while their family is away. I also treat every home with care and respect. I make sure doors are locked, food and water are refreshed, litter boxes or pet areas are kept clean, and pets are safe before I leave. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort level, and personality, whether they are playful, shy, energetic, independent, or need a little extra reassurance. My goal is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and for owners to feel confident knowing their pets and home are in trustworthy hands.
About: I’m new to the area and excited to be living on the East Coast! I’ve spent my entire life around animals, and about 10 years ago I ran a successful pet-sitting business on the West Coast. I’m excited to get back to doing something I genuinely love. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals—dogs, cats, hamsters, hedgehogs, lizards, snakes, horses, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, and plenty of others. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and everything in between. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets, puppies, anxious pets, animals with special needs, and pets who need medications. The one exception? Spiders. (((shudder))) Never spiders. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and care for your pets the way you do. Whether your pet needs a brief visit or several hours of companionship, I’m happy to tailor each visit to their needs. Walks, meals, medication, playtime, or simply some company—I’m happy to give your pets the attention they deserve. At this time, I’m offering check-in visits only and am not able to provide overnight care. I have a special-needs rescue dog of my own who cannot be left alone overnight. However, I can make as many visits during the day as your pets need and can stay for as long as necessary during each visit. I have plenty of references from previous pet-sitting clients and am happy to provide them upon request. I understand that trusting someone with your pets - and your home - is a big deal, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pets are safe, happy, comfortable, and cared for just as you would want. My #1 priority is to provide loving care when you’re not there. I’m available all day, seven days a week—including holidays. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, late nights, and even last-minute requests. I can work with your schedule. When I’m in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow the pet’s normal routine and schedule. This helps ease the anxiety of having someone new in their space while their parents are away. I also respect your privacy—I know how it feels to have someone go through your belongings, and I could never imagine violating that trust.

“Great communication and flexibility. They also offered a half price trial overnight which was a great idea. I was uncertain how Riley would do with young children as she’s never had experience with kids younger than middle school age and having this trial before a week long stay made me more comfortable. Riley had a good time with them and Dunkin. We’ve booked that week long stay.”

“Such a wonderful experience. Loved all the pictures and videos sent. My Sasha had such a wonderful time playing with all the pups and yard. Will plan for the next stay as my dog is so happy with her stay.”

“Pamela was very responsive and kept me updated throughout JuJu’s stay. She has a large, fenced in yard that provided plenty of space for play and exercise. It was clear that JuJu was well cared for, and I appreciated the regular communication and peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Pamela and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”

“We are very happy to leave our dog Peaches with Alexandra. She and her family did a great job caring for our dog.

“Justin and Stephanie were absolutely wonderful! Their communication was excellent from start to finish, and they immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease leaving Gunner in their care. I especially appreciated that they sent photos and updates without me even having to ask. It was so reassuring to see how well he was doing. Most importantly, Gunner was extremely happy and clearly had a great time with them! It means so much to know he was well cared for and comfortable while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Justin and Stephanie to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring sitters. I look forward to booking with them again in the future!”

“We highly recommend Jenn. Our dogs are nervous with other dogs but Jenn's patient and gentle approach completely won them over. They went from anxious to having a great time during their stay. We will definitely book again!”

“Had another great dog sitting experience with Jill and Chad… our Plott Hound mix, Luna, is always happy when we go on vacation because she gets to go have fun too, lol. 😂 Jill and Chad are quick to respond and always keep us abreast of anything we need to know regarding Luna’s stay and they send us photos and updates so we can see what she’s up to. I wish we lived a little closer but they are worth traveling a bit farther for. Overall a great experience and they are our go-to dog sitter. Highly recommend!”

She was also very accommodating and get me updated on my little Oliver was doing. Would definitely book again with Jessica :)”

“This is my very first time using Rover to gin weekend did a wonderful job caring for my 2 year old cat Ninja over the weekend. Colleen’s home was clean and she’s seems to have alot of experience dealing with pets. My cat had never been around a dog before, and Colleen took the time to allow them to acquaint them and they just left each other alone, no fighting.”
