“Due to unfortunate reasons we needed Diana to watch our dog. She's always accommodating when it comes to our needs. Our pup is always pooped when she gets home after the long hours of playing with Nova her husky. Diana is awesome. Thank you again”
“I am so very pleased with Cheryl and her furry family. Cheryl was very meticulous about assessing my dogs needs and care right from the start. My dog is quite skidish about new dogs, new environments and new people. This was no challenge for Cheryl. She was able to ease my dogs insecurities right away and allowed her 2 dogs time to meet our little girl on her terms and very cautiously. Cheryl was flexible with my drop off and pick up times and communicated with me throughout the entire stay with updates and photos. She also provided my dog with medications for her skin and gave us great feedback on how I may be able to better care for her allergies. Cheryl is a very responsible dog owner and it certainly carries into her ability to care for my dog as well. My dog was happy and stress free while in Cheryl's care and I will definitely be using her again! If you're looking for a caretaker that will provide top notch care and treat your furry companion with the love and respect they deserve, then look no further and reach out to Cheryl.”
“Wish I could give more than 5 stars! It was our first time using Rover for our 9 month old pup and Michael and Melanie completely exceeded expectations. Walks, hikes, pictures, and so much love! They truly made our pup apart of their family. We couldn’t thank them enough. Also want to mention their sweet, patient lab Mojo for being so good to our pup. If you’re looking for the best care for your pup, look no further!”
“Shaynna was awesome. She was willing to take Kelce on a last minute basis. She was also able to tell when Kelce was stressed and was able to give her the attention she needed. She gave updates and sent a picture. I will definitely book with Shaynna again when the time comes about.”
“Danny was great. Kept me informed and sent pics of Finn. This was the first time I left Finn for such a long time, but I think I missed him more than he missed me. I will use Danny in the future to take care of Finn.”
“Absolutely phenomenal! They took such great care of our dog while we were away. She experienced some separation anxiety and they handled it with love and attention. We will certainly rebook :)”
“Susan and Robert are an amazing couple. They welcomed Sophia into their large animal family and treated her as Royalty! Daily, they sent pictures and comments regarding Sophia. Their house is pet friendly with a large area for dogs to roam around. This was our first time using "pet sitters" and we are delighted with the results. We highly recommend both Susan and Robert to watch your animals.”
“Juliane was super sweet ! I felt 100% comfortable leaving my dog with her for the few nights I needed to. I asked to keep me updated with pictures and she did just that! Would 100% recommend and would book again if needed”
“Hailey and Jacob to the rescue! Our sitter came down with an illness a day before my wife and I were heading out of town. We were in scramble mode. Thankfully, Hailey had an opening. Her and her husband took very good care of dogs and gave extra attention to my pup with an eye injury. Hailey sent messages and pictures throughout the stay. Awesome family! 5 Stars!”

I work full time during the week, but I am available weekends and can provide pet care during the evenings after work depending on location. Depending on the needs of the animal, I will provide the proper care as per the owners request. I like to know specific details to make everyone feel comfortable.

About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care. I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible. Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.
About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of dogs for years now. I had two of my own and know how important it is to be able to trust someone to love them like they are their own. Being able to help my community in another way is a big deal for me and I can’t wait to be there for your pets. I work full time but I’m always looking for more to do. I love animals and want to be able to help out the community around me in a different way I know how important safety of all animals is and know when to remove them from stressful situations. Ill make sure your pet is safe and secure anytime they are with me.
About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as I can, just comes second nature for me! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having! I’m hoping to make Rover a full-time career! That’s how much I love animals! I’m very flexible with all your pet caring needs so if there’s anything I can help with, please let me know! Although I'm unable to watch your pups at my home, I'll make sure they're safe at yours! I make sure I understand the pups needs, routine, and any specific care instructions provided by you, the owner. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring their environment is safe and clean, exercising them, and administering medications or treatments if required.

I'm experienced with felines as well!

About: Hi, I'm Suzie and I'll turn 62 this month... That is almost how long that I've been a pet owner from dogs, cats, horses, ponies, chickens cows, peacocks.. I'm also a Registered Nurse who worked critical care for 11 years and have been an RN for 35 years. I'm very comfortable with injections, and giving meds, assessing the animal and knowing when to call a vet. I have a Newfoundland here and a newfie/great dane cross, 3 house cats, and then the rest of the animals outside. The dog yard has a pet door that leads into a small area in my kitchen that is currently fenced off so no one gets free run of the house unless supervised. They can come and go back and forth as much as they want to. My back yard is lined with 4 board fencing that also has American wire in the inside to keep little ones in. I'm currently working flex at the hospital so I'm actually home almost all the time. I have a roommate that helps with the farm and the dogs when I'm not here. I'm a home body so I'm home here almost all the time. I have a 4 board fenced in yard that is also lined on the inside with American wire for my yard and have chains on the gates leading into and out of the yard. My fence is 5 ft high. There is a pet door leading into the kitchen which has a small fenced in area inside the kitchen so that the dogs can be contained just in case they are wet. I allow them into the house once they are dry.

“Watson had a great experience with Mike and his crew. I was looking for a sitter to keep watch of Watson for an afternoon while I explored the mountain bike trails at Raystown lake. Mike lives super super close to the trailhead so that was very convenient. He took great care of Watson giving him multiple walks and kept me informed with regular updates. Will definitely be reaching out to Mike next time I am back to the area.”

About: ** UPDATE: I have prided myself on being both affordable and a safe space for your baby, with the raising price of everything especially gas, I have adjusted my rates some to cover costs.** Hi! My name is Amanda V., I am a fulltime fur and non fur Mom, as I have made the jump to make this a full time job! I have two non-fur children ages 10 and 13 , my fur children consist of three kitties babies ages 17-15- 10 and two fluffy doggos ages 5 & 3, and an amazing husband who shares my love of animals. I grew up surrounded by various animals both indoors and outdoors animals. My grandparents owned a farm so I have experience with many farm animals, and growing up we had two dogs, multiple cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I have helped care for and watch others fur/feathered/scaley babies since as long as I can remember. I am not medically certified in anyway, but have extensive knowledge of medicines, administering medicines, CPR, and First AID. I am constantly researching behavior/training methods, daily food/treat quality, and grooming techniques. My dream has always been to work in the animal care field, especially grooming. I currently own my own pet dryer along with various grooming tools, and if wanted I can obtain the knowledge for grooming your fur baby. As for now we live in town, in a quiet neighborhood, with ample room for your fur baby to join our family if you choose to have me care for them in home. I hope to hear from you soon and meet your fur babies!!! If you have any additional questions please contact me. As of now I am available almost any day at any time. I will be going back to substituting in the afternoons starting in the fall, as the need for long term care is lower once school starts. We are an animal loving home, that is both safe and affordable! I do have crates available if you require one and don’t want to lug yours here.
“Ashley was incredible with my dog and super flexible. We unfortunately dealt with flight delays/cancelations and it was a relief knowing someone was there and willing to not only adapt to changes but genuinely cared about our dogs wellbeing. She sent me photos everyday and regularly corresponded with me which made me feel way more comfortable. 10/10 definitely recommend and will use again in the future.”
“Hailey and her family are absolute gems!!! They treated my pups legit as if they were their own. My little one needed frequent medication administered and she stayed on top of it, kept a log and even provided photos and updates throughout the day.

“Susan and Robert are very kind, responsible and reliable. When we first met them, they made us feel comfortable right away. Benny (their dog) is the sweetest puppy and welcomed Pepper into his space immediately. This was the first time we left Pepper under the care of someone other than the veterinarian. After this first experience, we plan to call Susan and Robert again when we may need someone to sit Pepper. Thank Susan, Robert and Rover!”
“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.”

I currently work full time but am free in the mornings before work, evenings and on weekends. I also work from home on Fridays so am available all day on those days.

“Jason has been such a pro. our dog Zoey just loves when he comes over. Zoey had a rocky start with a stranger walking her but has fallen in love with Jason. It has been such a help. Thanks”
About: While growing up, my parents fostered many greyhounds. I assisted with training, walks, and over all care! I love pups of all shapes and ages! I have an Australian Shepard named Levee. I care for all his needs daily. We get exercise by going on 2-4 hiking trails a week. I would prefer coming to you. I want your pups comfortable and in THIER space. Whatever you need! Walks, playing, or just keeping them company!
About: My family has always had dogs and cats, the first dog was a pug/beagle cross, then a boxer/rottweiler cross, then two purebred border collies and a cocker spaniel. The cats were just your avarage barn cat but they were fat, sleek, healthy, and very well loved and taken care of. I grew up playing fetch and hide and seek with the dogs and sneaking the cats inside the house whenever I had the chance. We raised a few litters of border collie puppies and also a few litters of cocker spaniel puppies so I definitely have experience taking care of puppies. I love any animals, whether it's a huge dog, tiny puppy, or sassy cat. I'll do my best to make sure your pet is comfortable and well taken care of! Shoot me a text and I'll get back to you as soon as possible! I have a very flexible schedule at the moment so I don’t need much of a heads-up. Just shoot me a text and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible! I will be willing to care for your fur babies in your home as my apartment has a "no pets" policy. I apologize for any inconvenience!

About: My name is Rhianna and like you, I care a great deal about animals! I have plenty of experience ranging from providing volunteer services as a child with my mother in our local SPCA to volunteering for multiple rescue groups, working with all different breeds, sizes and ages. I'm experienced with felines as well! A typical day for your "fur-baby" consists of whatever requirements you, as their parent, requests along with plenty of cuddles, play and positive re-enforcement training. Your pet will be loved as my own while in my care. At most times, I will be having my significant other, Jeremiah, accompany me as he shares my love and passion for animals and their well-being. What makes me stand out is my ability to gain trust, respect and my dedication to ensure every animal I'm given the opportunity to care for feels loved and safe. I cant wait to meet you and your beloved pets! currently, i work from home and spend the days with our border collie, Fynn and our pibble, Blaze. We live in a two story home with a decent yard and 6-8 kids running around, ready to play or cuddle. I will provide your pet with my undivided attention, care and love. I have the time for walks, play time, and cuddle time on my couch to ensure your pet feels comfortable while you're away I’m available for boarding, walks, any care during the week, available all weekend. I work from home and able to bring work with me anywhere I have two friendly male dogs, Fynn and Blaze. Fynn is 3yrs, unaltered and Blaze is about 14yrs, neutered. We do training sessions every day, take walks, and play.
About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care. I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible. Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.
About: In my opinion, animals are the best thing in the world! Especially when they become pets. I am a nurse at Johns Hopkins Hospital, but I have always had other passions. One passion would definitely be my love for animals and nature! When I am not at the hospital I would love to get to know you and your family pet! I love all animals so much ... I got allergy weekly/biweekly shots (2 in each arm) to prove it!! I am super interested in caring for your family pet and making them feel like you never left home! I am interested in walking, sitting, home visits and boarding animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, cows, chickens, pigs, rabbits, hamsters, hermit crabs, etc! I am skilled at taking care of many different animals. I currently own a dachshund and a Bichon poo. My dogs are my world!! If you want someone who will treat your pet like family I am your girl! I work night shift so I am available most days and some night to help out when needed! Feel free to contact me!

About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of dogs for years now. I had two of my own and know how important it is to be able to trust someone to love them like they are their own. Being able to help my community in another way is a big deal for me and I can’t wait to be there for your pets. I work full time but I’m always looking for more to do. I love animals and want to be able to help out the community around me in a different way I know how important safety of all animals is and know when to remove them from stressful situations. Ill make sure your pet is safe and secure anytime they are with me.
About: I LOVE DOGS!! What more can I say? I have had dogs in my family, of my own and taken care of family dogs practically since I was born. I've been around dogs of all shapes and sizes and love all of them, no matter what! I have had experience with special diets, dog walking and even diabetic dogs (using diabetic test strips and glucometer). Sometimes I like to think of myself as a dog whisperer: I can get along with all dogs and read what they need or want. I'm also great at helping dogs to heal or get over their fears! I especially love giving and receiving loves (hugs, kisses and lots of cuddles and petting)! Give me your doggie babies! :D I would love to take care of them!

About: I've lived with pets all my life and while I’ve only had one human roommate in the last 30 years, I've always had a least one cat up until 2018. I LOVE cats (esp kittens), and am quite comfortable around dogs as well (I love them too, just not in all capitals, LOL). When I first started pet sitting, I thought I preferred cats to dogs, but the past few years have enabled me to expand in my love of, and comfort with dogs (but please don't tell the cats that)! I also used to 'lease' a horse in my youth and have experience with birds, hamsters, fish, and guinea pigs. I DON'T like snakes or insects (sorry!) In the last 12 years I’ve volunteered with several rescues as a cat/kitten foster and I'm known to be particularly good with feral kittens and cats. I'm really good with walking (dogs mostly), dispensing medications, and loving attention, but I'm not a pushover when it comes to treats from the table (that's a no-no) staying on leash when required, and letting them know I mean business when necessary. I don't believe in EVER striking or punishing animals and seem to fall in love with them all. I’ve been a house and pet sitter on the site “Trusted Housesitters” since 2018 and have over 21 positive reviews there. I’m recently retired (yet surprisingly busy). I don’t do a lot of night driving, but am otherwise generally available. I’m a stickler about being on time, and keeping dates I commit to. My preference is for cats to remain indoors at all times at my house, and dogs always on a lead when outside. I have a variety of crate sizes here, and am totally comfortable with your fur kids riding in my car, lounging on my furniture, and/or sleeping in my bed. I have all wood floors, plenty of cat litter pans and bowls for food and water. My yard is not fenced but I have easy access to neighborhood parks.
About: My life's work has been devoted to the care and rescue of many animals, spanning over 29 years. My dedication to animals is rivaled only by my passion for ensuring their safety and well-being worldwide. As an experienced dog and horse trainer, I am equipped to provide exceptional care and guidance for these animals. As a stay-at-home mom, I currently have a lot of free time and spend most of my days caring for my pets and connecting with nature. I trust pets and believe in giving them the freedom to roam on my property, but I also understand the need for safety measures such as crates and leashes for the well-being of both pets and people.
About: I’ve taken care of my family dogs since the oldest was a puppy, I have take care of friends dogs as well as relatives dogs too. I’m currently working full time and take care of pets when I get home. When I’m taking care of dogs for others I find time before and after work. I have a fenced in yard, my dogs get along well with other dogs . I’ve had my dogs interact with other dogs since puppies . I take them on walks and there’s a dog park near my home.

“Due to unfortunate reasons we needed Diana to watch our dog. She's always accommodating when it comes to our needs. Our pup is always pooped when she gets home after the long hours of playing with Nova her husky. Diana is awesome. Thank you again”
“I am so very pleased with Cheryl and her furry family. Cheryl was very meticulous about assessing my dogs needs and care right from the start. My dog is quite skidish about new dogs, new environments and new people. This was no challenge for Cheryl. She was able to ease my dogs insecurities right away and allowed her 2 dogs time to meet our little girl on her terms and very cautiously. Cheryl was flexible with my drop off and pick up times and communicated with me throughout the entire stay with updates and photos. She also provided my dog with medications for her skin and gave us great feedback on how I may be able to better care for her allergies. Cheryl is a very responsible dog owner and it certainly carries into her ability to care for my dog as well. My dog was happy and stress free while in Cheryl's care and I will definitely be using her again! If you're looking for a caretaker that will provide top notch care and treat your furry companion with the love and respect they deserve, then look no further and reach out to Cheryl.”
“Wish I could give more than 5 stars! It was our first time using Rover for our 9 month old pup and Michael and Melanie completely exceeded expectations. Walks, hikes, pictures, and so much love! They truly made our pup apart of their family. We couldn’t thank them enough. Also want to mention their sweet, patient lab Mojo for being so good to our pup. If you’re looking for the best care for your pup, look no further!”
“Shaynna was awesome. She was willing to take Kelce on a last minute basis. She was also able to tell when Kelce was stressed and was able to give her the attention she needed. She gave updates and sent a picture. I will definitely book with Shaynna again when the time comes about.”
“Danny was great. Kept me informed and sent pics of Finn. This was the first time I left Finn for such a long time, but I think I missed him more than he missed me. I will use Danny in the future to take care of Finn.”
“Susan and Robert are an amazing couple. They welcomed Sophia into their large animal family and treated her as Royalty! Daily, they sent pictures and comments regarding Sophia. Their house is pet friendly with a large area for dogs to roam around. This was our first time using "pet sitters" and we are delighted with the results. We highly recommend both Susan and Robert to watch your animals.”
“Juliane was super sweet ! I felt 100% comfortable leaving my dog with her for the few nights I needed to. I asked to keep me updated with pictures and she did just that! Would 100% recommend and would book again if needed”
“Hailey and Jacob to the rescue! Our sitter came down with an illness a day before my wife and I were heading out of town. We were in scramble mode. Thankfully, Hailey had an opening. Her and her husband took very good care of dogs and gave extra attention to my pup with an eye injury. Hailey sent messages and pictures throughout the stay. Awesome family! 5 Stars!”

Your dog will love a relaxing mountain retreat! Your cat can enjoy a quiet vacation! I work full time as a teacher. I can board your pet all weekends or in the afternoons.

About: Hello! My name is Kacey, and I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog walker with a lifelong passion for animals. I began caring for pets in elementary school, helping my neighbors by walking their dogs and watching their pets while they were away. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to work with dogs of all sizes and a wide variety of breeds. During high school, I also job shadowed at a veterinary clinic, where I gained valuable hands on knowledge about animal care, behavior, and overall wellbeing. This experience further strengthened my ability to provide attentive and compassionate care. When your pet is in my care, I am committed to going above and beyond to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and care for your furry family members! I maintain a very flexible schedule, and I do my best to accommodate each client’s needs. Even on busy days, I will work to ensure I can fit you in whenever possible. When staying in your home, I will treat it with the utmost respect and leave everything exactly as I found it. I will never make any changes or take any actions without your consent. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority.
