“Elizabeth was wonderful and communicative while watching Bear. She would send pictures daily and even bathed him one day when he got into some mud. She was able to keep him an extra night for us as well due to traveling issues. Highly recommend!”
“Simba stayed for 10 days. Mandeep and her family were very welcoming and took great care of our 15 months puppy. She also sent us pics and videos during the stay. Thanks Mandeep for taking care of him. Would definitely recommend.”
“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.”
“Josie is so accommodating and she also gives love to each pet she cares for. Otto loves visiting with her and her family. I consider myself very lucky to have found her services. A repeat customer for sure!!”
“Teresa is great!! She took care of our two dogs on two different occasions and I had no worries. She sent me pictures and shared how they were doing. I would definitely leave my two babies in her care in the future.”
“Libby Lou had a great time with Angela and Ken and their family. We would highly recommend them to anyone. Great communications and a great stay for Libby. Angela and Ken are dog owners and gave Libby Lou all the love she is use to. They kept her busy and you can tell because she was one tired little girl when we took her home and she is hard to wear down. Loved the large fenced in back yard because she could just run. We look forward to using Angela and Ken again in the future. Thanks to them for looking after Libby Lou. Linda and Bob”
“10/10 experience! I was a little nervous leaving our pup Kai with someone new, but Sowmya and her family treated him as their own. He seemed so comfortable around them and that alone put my mind at ease. I truly enjoyed receiving updates and pictures while I was away. Will be booking again!”
“Heather was wonderful! Abbie was well-cared for and very much at home with Heather and her daughter. Lots of fresh air and space on the property, plus other animals for Abbie to see- chickens, ducks, and kittens—she loved it! Heather was very responsive to texts and sent pictures of Abbie’s activities over the course of the weekend. I look forward to using Heather again and highly recommend her.”
“Vasumathy was an excellent choice for our puppy. She started us with a meet and greet which was a great idea. She sent us daily updates and videos. She made us feel at ease when we had to leave our lab for four days. We would definitely use her again.”
“I just love how much Christina loves Boris! She’s super communicative and he’s always happy when we drop him at her place, which to me is the best sign that he enjoys his time with her, Willow and Meeko!”
“Korine and Matt were so kind and thoughtful and took amazing care of Evie! Evie can have a bit of a hard time warming up to people, but she fell in love with them so quickly! They are my first choice when coming back to visit the area! I can't thank them enough!!!!”
“Our dogs had the best time with David and his family! They enjoyed early morning walks and plenty of activity, which I know they loved. David sent daily photo updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with him again for future vacations—as long as he's willing to take our two dogs back after all the fun they had!”
“De’Andra and Robert took great care of Beans! They had excellent communication throughout the stay and kept me updated with many pictures, which I really appreciated. Beans came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would definitely recommend them and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. 🐕”
“Bobbi was fantastic with our dog. She was responsive, reliable, and took such great care of our pup. It is rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own. We highly recommend her.”
“Pam and Michael took such good care of Mojo. They sent pictures and videos and made a point to touch base with me letting me know how things were going. I could tell they really made a home away from home for our pup which put me at ease. Mojo was happy and healthy and for that I’m grateful. Thank you for your hospitality and care for Mojo!”
“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.”
“Tully had a great stay with Jack. He was a terrific communicator and sent us updates and photos that put our minds at ease (this was only Tully's second time staying away from us). I would recommend Jack to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and engaged pet sitter.”
“Our Puppers just loved hanging out with Kathy! Tucker become her lap dog and Daisy made herself right at home in her well puppy proofed home. They loved their time outside with her and watching squirrels from her back patio window. We will definitely use her again next time we need a sitter!”

“Korine was BEYOND amazing with my elderly and sick dog. I wish I could give her a million stars. She gave her all of her many daily medicines and walked her at her own (very slow lol) pace. I felt horrible leaving my girl but Korine kept me very comforted with constant check-in messages, pictures, and videos- it was almost as if I was still at home myself. My dog made a great friend in Korine and loved her company very much. 🥰 I could tell she was extremely and genuinely loved and cared for which put my mind and heart at ease being away from her. Thank you!!!”
“We asked Alyssa to watch our cats on short notice and she did a fantastic job! She was courteous, communicative, and provided photos of our pets while we were gone. We definitely recommend her service and will be asking for her help again during future trips.”
“Abby is the best! She communicates well, is detailed-oriented, and is very responsive. We rest assured that our cats and home are in good care with her when we travel. We highly recommend Abby!”
“Aubrey was responsive and great with my cat for a quick weekend trip. She left detailed feedback after each visit and I was relieved he was left in such great care.”
About: I have been walking/sitting dogs on Rover for five years. I took a year off during the first year of law school, but am hoping to get back into it now! I have had dogs all my life and miss having a furry friend around my apartment here in Carlisle. I have classes in the morning every day, but I have plenty of time in the afternoons to care for pets. I plan on spending my afternoons walking and hanging out with dogs, and I am willing to give the dogs the time and attention they need. When I walk your dog I’ll care for him or her like they’re my own. I am not just doing this for money, but I really do love animals and spending time with them. I have lived in Columbia for over a year, so I know the city and area well and will keep your furry friend safe.
“Samantha genuinely loves animals and it shows, she uses the ‘dog mom voice’, she gets down at my dog’s level to play, and is so careful about health quirks. I would recommend her to anyone with a pet looking for a sitter!”
About: I have worked in an animal hospital/boarding kennel for the past 5 years. This environment has allowed me to learn how to properly take care of each animal based on their individual needs and behavior. I have hands-on training as a veterinary assistant and am capable of giving your pet medications if needed! I consider myself to be a well-rounded caretaker and lover of all animals, so please consider reaching out! 🐾💞🐶 I’m currently working full-time but will be looking to accept jobs that work with my off-day schedules! (Normally off Thursdays and weekends). Currently not doing overnight stays I can care for your pets however you would normally while you’re home with them! With working in a boarding kennel, people often tell us what works best with their pets when it comes to caring for them. I can adjust my work to best accommodate to what your pet is most comfortable with!
“Camila is great! She came to my apartment to meet them the day before which I think helped a lot. She is gentle and patient and my cats warmed up to her very quickly. I really appreciate the pictures and videos she sent me and I could tell my cats really liked her :)”
About: I've had dogs since I was a baby. I currently have 2 dogs, 6 cats and 16 chickens! I love animals and would love to help with yours! I am home everyday and would love to come help you with your pets! I am available all day minus from 2:50pm to 3:30pm while getting my son from school. I am a very trustworthy person, I am open to coming to meet you and your pet before any service to get to know you and them.

“Josie was great!! She accepted our booking extremely last minute (like 15 minutes before dropping off), she was literally a life saver today. Zeus had so much fun in her care today.”
“Sowmya and her family are absolutely amazing! Millie is always so happy and excited to go to their home, and she comes back just as happy. They are wonderful with communication and always respond to messages very promptly. They have been so helpful and accommodating whenever we’ve needed them to watch Millie, even on short notice. We feel completely comfortable leaving her with them and truly appreciate the love and care they give her. Highly recommend them! ❤️🐾”
“Wonderful experience for us and for Gus The Wonder Dog. We indicated at booking we would drop him off between 9 and 9:30 am and pick him up between 4 and 4:30 pm. We discovered before we dropped him off the first morning that our group would be eating dinner about 3 miles from the sitter's home. To pick him up at 4:30, return him to the B&B, and then drive back to dinner venue would have added about 15 - 18 miles of driving in somewhat heavy traffic. I asked if we could pick him up after dinner”
“Aurora was easy to communicate and very responsive. She welcomed my dog into her home and made her feel comfortable. By the 3rd day, my pup was running and wagging her tail to get out of the car and to Aurora’s door. Highly recommend.”
“I get nervous about leaving our dog Sheru with anyone, but Jaideep and his wife seem very caring. They took great care of him and shared updates and pictures. I look forward to booking with them again and highly recommend them to others as well. Thank you!”
“Once again, I am so grateful for the kind care provided to our dog (with short notice), by Courtney and Andrew N. Our dog came home so happy and relaxed. Highly recommend Courtney & Andrew!”
“Heinz had SO much fun with Angela and her family! Angela was great to watch him last minute and we were so happy that she did! He is still all puppy, with lots of playful energy, and he was exhausted after a fun day with Angela! So much so he fell asleep on the way home. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for doggie sitting needs!”
“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.”
“If you are in the Carlisle, PA, area, please consider using Victoria C. and her family as your sitter. It was only a half a day stay but we were able to do a meet and greet before the actual date. She was very attentive and sent pictures to us showing what he was doing. We could tell by Blaze's body language he was happy with his stay. They walked him several times in their backyard and was able to get him to play ball with them. Next time we are in town we will use them again, we highly recommend them.”
About: I have worked with animals for a long time. I have a degree in biology and psychology for animal training and behavior. I worked previously in a zoo setting, as well as offering dog training classes through a pet store. I’m trained in positive reinforcement techniques. I work from home with a flexible schedule. We have one English bulldog in our home and I would love the opportunity to visit with your pets on an as needed or regular basis. If you have any questions not answered here, please feel free to contact me about my history/experience or any specific needs you may have. Thanks for reading and your interest! I work from home so I’m always looking to get some fresh air and take a break! I can walk dogs or check in during the normal work day. Currently I’m offering dog walks and check ins during the week. I will follow all of your instructions and be sure to send you an update! We are looking for one dog to offer doggy daycare weekly in our home. My husband and I are both WFH and we would love host a dog (must be okay with dogs and kids) during the workweek!
About: Hello! Justin and I have both had all types of pets our entire lives. Dogs, cats, birds, fish and even a few reptiles! Justin is the son of a veterinarian and has had experience with many types of animals. Our daughters have never not shared a home with a furry best friend and are both nurturing animal lovers. We currently share our home with a very lovable hound mix pup (Finn) that we adopted from a local rescue at 4 months old. We also adopted an adult rescue kitty (Lewis) in the spring of 2022. Lewis and Finn are best buddies! Finn’s mission in life is to befriend everyone he meets, especially dogs!! He’d love to be your pups BFF while staying in our home. We have a gated deck that leads to a fenced in pup play area to safely and leisurely enjoy the fresh air and sunshine on nice days. We enjoy taking frequent walks in our very low traffic rural neighborhood. Our family would love to provide your pup with a loving, safe retreat while you enjoy a guilt free getaway knowing your best friend is being well taken care of and treated like part of the family. Caring for pets is my full time job so I can accommodate your pups needs and give him lots of attention throughout the day and night. I am the primary care giver and Justin fills in when I need to run an errand or have an appointment. Our home is very puppy proofed because our doggy can be mischievous. Our kitty has full run of the lower level of our home but he does come up and interact with everyone.
“She was amazing. My older girl has bad anxiety leaving me but she loved being with Kayla! And she was so amazing with my puppy whos still potty training and testing boundaries. In every single photo she sent they looked so happy. She was patient and kind. Shes super chill and easy to talk to / book with and she always offering a solution to fit my needs for a sitter no matter how last minute. I would 110% recommend her to anyone who needs their pups watched!!”
“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 have always had dogs and cats and love animals sometimes more than people, LOL! I have retired from my business career and now getting to enjoy caring for your furry children. I am happy to walk your dogs and do whatever you need for them to be comfortable while you are away. I am currently working full time but will be retiring soon. At this time, I will be available to care for your furry friends on the weekends but in the coming year will also be available throughout the week. I am a trustworthy, reliable person and always put my best effort into everything I do! I look forward to caring for your furry friend!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 5. My brother was very active in the dog community and often took me with him. I took care of his Rotwilliers whenever he vacationed and had several dogs of my own. I have been a dog sitter for friends and family my whole life and have taken care of dogs for my nanny families in the past! I am currently a part-time nanny, but fit in dog care in my off time! I only work two full days a week, Monday and Thursday, so I have plenty of time for my puppy friends! I love to help out other dog parents and want to make dog care my full-time job. When caring for a dog in another home, I can easily follow instructions you leave for me. I can walk the dogs on a leash, take them to dog parks, or play with them in my own yard. If a dog has to come home with me, I have a large home with plenty of yard for them to run and play in. I have small crates at my own home if needed. I have experience with giving dogs medication due to my own senior dogs and my French bulldog who has had allergy issues.
About: Hello, we are the Shapiros and throughout our whole life we have always loved, and owned, dogs. We have two of my own right now Our family lives on 1/2 an acre. The backyard takes up most of that, including a 6' privacy fence. Our floors are carpeted, though if any pet has an accident we are willing to clean it. We are trustworthy, kind, flexible, and willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that while you go on a vacation away for the night, or even just have a little "me" time that your pet is safe, and being treated as well as you would treat them if you were home. We have sat for several family members and friends in the past, even as a young teen. Whenever we have little get-togethers with other family and friends we encourage them to bring their pets. They can always roam free through the yard, and if needed a dip in the pool. We can promise that while staying with us, your kiddo will be taken care of as if you never left. It is important to be able to trust someone enough to take care of a family member, and I can promise that I will be able to do the job. I hope to meet some furry-faces soon! We are home all day and on evenings. There are two adults and one senior dog in the home. Potty breaks are done often outside in our fence yard We will care for your pet as our own. We will provide any special care your pets need. We feed all pets separately as to avoid food fights

“Ceara is a reliable dog walker for our ridgeback Oso. We did a meet and greet prior to their first walk and she’s been so good with him ever since. Ceara is our first choice on rover because she is flexible, reliable, she communicates frequently, and because Oso adores her. We’re super grateful to be repeat clients with Ceara and we trust her with our dog.”

About: I love all dogs regardless of how hyper or chilled out your pet is. As a student Athlete, I can completely match your dog's energy. I can ensure that you and your pet will look forward to booking with me again. I work in an office in midtown Manhattan from 9-5 Monday-Friday, besides that I'm generally available to give the rest of my evening to other things, considering I have no commitments for my internship outside the office. How I care for other pets completely depends on the animal I'm looking after. Making sure to reciprocate whatever the dog is showing is the priority in most cases.
