“I am totally comfortable leaving our dog (2 y/o Whippet) with Anthony as his caregiver. Anthony is conscientious about sending pics and updates, and I know Finn is getting exercise and attention when he is with Anthony. Our dog is happy and tired when he returns to us, and I know he is well cared for! We are delighted to have found Anthony (and his wife, Leslie) on our first Rover experience = they are the real-deal. I am happy to recommend!”
“Cassandra really helped us out on short notice, took our pup all day, and did another great job caring for our Sophie. Took care of our GR pup with kindness and patience, and her kids are also great with her.”
“Monica took great care of my dog, Lusia, while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Everything went smoothly, and I highly recommend her as a responsible and caring pet sitter!”
About: I'm a huge animal lover - big and small! I've had dogs and cats my whole life. We have a sweet cat who absolutely loves every dog that comes through our home. We currently have a Great Dane and Great Pyrenees as well as chickens, 1 guinea pig, 2 rabbits and fish. I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them. After doing much research and lots of experience, I've learned a lot about a dog's language and how to respect them. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will love on them just the same. I can't wait to meet your fur-babies! Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around. I can easily crate if need be as well.
“Heidi and her family were great. Zoey and Lucy were great dog hosts and got along with Sage very well. They have a nice fenced-in yard and a very dog friendly house. Great experience, would recommend and will be at the top of my list next time I need someone to watch the doggo.”
“Michael took awesome care of our 14 year old xtra large girl including giving medication 3 times a day also surprised us by how social she was with the other dogs . We looked forward to the daily videos they gave us peace of mind while we were away. Been home a couple days I think Bella misses being there. Will definitely book with him again. Highly recommend him !”
“Kate is absolutely amazing! We left our dog with Kate for his first “sleepover” and she went above and beyond to keep us updated the entire time and sent so many photos while we were away on our trip. She took Frankie on tons of walks, played, and he was tuckered out when we returned home to him. Thank you Kate, we will definitely rebook again in the future!”
“Esmirna took such good care of my boy! She kept me updated and let me know how he was doing. This was the first time I left Jack with someone and I will definitely continue to book with Esmirna again :)”
“Kim was so accommodating with me. Willow was going to arrive around 2pm, then 4pm and then after 5pm as our drive and lunch stop took longer than expected. Willow is not used to other dogs since she is an only dog at home and can get quite stressed but she was great when I picked her up and Kim and her husband updated me with pictures with her on their laps and outside. She was always very prompt to respond. Nice big back yard which Willow loves. Overall, it was a great experience - way better than a kennel.”
“Patrick and Emily were fabulous! Zeke loved it there. They provided pics and updates and took very good care of our puppy while we were away! Highly recommended”
About: We have 8 years old cat - Russia blue. Sometimes we feed our friends cats. More cats we take care of, the cats gain more trust in us. My sons has 2 dogs. My friends rely on us to feed their dogs. Sometimes we walk their dogs up to 60 minutes. We work full time. Joseph is available during weekends and Monday- Friday mornings. Angela is available during evenings and weekends. We can be available on some holidays. We will ensure that your pets are safe and we handle with a lot of care and love. We treat your pets like our own family.
“Lindsay and her family were wonderful and accommodating. They were also very flexible with my pickup time. They and their dog Murphy took great care of Sadie. I will certainly use Lindsay again to take care of Sadie next time I’m in the area. I highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 18. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets! I’m a stay at home mama to my amazing kids and two dogs! We have a fenced in yard that they love to play around in and we enjoy walks everyday it’s nice out! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company! I’m very accommodating if your dog needs extra love! I am always home so they won’t ever be left alone for long periods of time.
“Rae and her family really worked hard to make my anxious Bichon, Hope feel at ease.. Hope came from neglect and abuse the first 5 months of her life before we adopted her. She gets anxious with anyone above her trying to pet her, but after a day, her anxieties were minimized and she felt more at home! I appreciate all your love and support with Hope!”
“I would give 10 stars if I could! I had a last minute work trip and Richard was so accommodating. So kind and I am so appreciative. Mosi had a great time and was ready for a nap when he came home!”
“Asher M. was a wonderful pet sitter for my two boys! This was the first time that I have ever had anyone, besides family members, watch my two cats. My boys are almost 12, and one is diabetic, but I had no concerns during my trip. Asher stayed in contact with me, gave me his personal cell phone number, and even sent me pictures of my two cats during my trip. I appreciated all of this greatly, and cannot recommend his care enough! Thank you for making my first experience with not only Rover, but also with boarding my two cats anywhere, a smooth and stress free experience. I will book again with Asher M. if I find myself needing another boarding for my two.”

“Alisha has watched our cats a few times and we are so happy we found her. Our kitties always are happy and well cared for. We also love the that Alisha gives us daily updates and pics while we are away.”
“Megan was so attentive to my kitties’ needs. She gave me a full report on each visit, complete with photos, and was patient and kind to my stressed out kitty that pooed on the floor twice for her :( And she was so friendly and professional. Would absolutely hire her again!”
“Brandie checked in on our cat, Max, for four days last week. She did an outstanding job taking care of Max! It was nice to know he was in great care with her and we didn't have to worry about him. We won't hesitate to use Brandie again on future trips.”
“Grace was super kind and helpful for my weekend getaway! My cat was a little sick while she was there and she was super attentive and made sure my little girl was comfortable! I highly recommend and definitely will be scheduling her again!”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands on experience caring for pets in every stage of life - from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior dogs and cats who need a little extra patience and gentleness. I currently have a senior dog of my own, so I understand how important attentive care is - especially as pets age. I've cared for energetic young dogs and kittens to senior pets who require slower walks, medication or simply a calm and reassuring presence. I am comfortable with both dogs and cats and their unique personalities.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I’m glad I did! We were in a pinch to find someone to check-in on our three cats, like “the day before we leave” kinda pinch. Lorrie contacted me almost immediately, which is great because I cannot text a bunch at work and phone calls are quicker. We had the meet and greet and I was confident she was the right person for the job! She provided consistent and detailed updates and even quelled an emergency when the cats busted out of their cat door! I’ll say this— when we got home the cats were excited and comfortable. We’ve gone off for a couple days before and come home to basically wild animals. This time was noticeable different. So, I’m glad I got connected with Lorrie through Rover!”
“Thanks again! Kelly was great with our new kittens. Happy that she was available because she was so sweet and went the extra mile in the past when we had an elderly sick cat.”
“Corinne is truely an exceptional Pet Sitter. She was our best Christmas present, as we booked her last minute (after a scheduled visit was cancelled). Our 20 yr. old kitty, normally pretty shy with strangers, fell in love with her on 1st meeting and let Corinne hold & pet her on every visit. She was the best communicator, sending lots of pictures and short messages. We are so happy and thankful to have found Corinne and will definitely book her again!”
“Ashley was great! She stopped in to check up on our two cats. She’s friendly, on time and instilled confidence. I look forward to rebooking with Ashley on future needs. Thanks Ashley!!”
About: I’m an animal lover! I not only grew up with several pets including cats, dogs, fish, parakeets, & hermit crabs - but I now have two cats and two dogs of my own. I know how difficult it can be to find someone to check on your pets when you’re in a bind. That’s why I decided to reactivate this account, to help others out! Pet services give me the pleasure of working with animals while helping out the owner. I enjoy running, walking, hiking, and play time, as well as just relaxing with animals. I treat every pet as if it were my own, with love and care. Availability : Mondays = After 5pm Tuesdays / Wednesdays / Thursdays = 12-1pm & After 4:30pm Fridays = After 3:30pm Saturdays & Sunday’s = Open I treat all animals as if they were my own which includes patience, love, affection, and gentleness. I’m also accommodating to their specific mannerisms such as high energy, size, disability, etc.
“Kate is amazing! She goes above and beyond expectations. My cat Mitzi has chased away so many sitters because she can be ornery, but Kate finds her challenging personality interesting. Kate has empathy, which is important with animals too. She understands that Mitzi is difficult for a reason, so she works with it, and Mitzi responds better with Kate. I always leave on my trips feeling assured that Mitzi is in great hands! It's very reassuring.”
About: Pet lover, trusted caregiver, and professional belly-rub provider! I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s walks or drop-ins. I’d love to help care for your furry family members.
“Danielle has done a wonderful job of caring for our kitties when we are out of town. I feel better knowing she is there to give them snuggles when we can’t . We will continue to have Danielle visit when we are out of town.”
“Courtney did a fantastic job taking care of my two elderly cats over the holidays. They generally do not interact with strangers, yet they were comfortable with Courtney, which speaks volumes about her calm and caring approach. I would highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for loving, attentive care for their furry family members.”
“Asher M. was a wonderful pet sitter for my two boys! This was the first time that I have ever had anyone, besides family members, watch my two cats. My boys are almost 12, and one is diabetic, but I had no concerns during my trip. Asher stayed in contact with me, gave me his personal cell phone number, and even sent me pictures of my two cats during my trip. I appreciated all of this greatly, and cannot recommend his care enough! Thank you for making my first experience with not only Rover, but also with boarding my two cats anywhere, a smooth and stress free experience. I will book again with Asher M. if I find myself needing another boarding for my two.”
About: I have had corgis, very pushy dogs, my entire life. I have had puppies and elder dogs and have taken care of them and walked them through it all. I work more in the afternoon and night as a an employee at Plato’s closet and hopefully a waitress at Industry Public so my availability is more in the mornings! I am always ready to play with the dogs or just cuddle with them! Whether that be playing or laying, I will keep the dogs comfortable no matter what!
“Brianna was so so great! Even with how late I made my booking, she was accommodating and sweet, and while I was away, she went above and beyond. I really appreciated all the effort she put into taking care of my cats, and even my shy guy seemed to warm up to her. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”

“Michael was absolutely amazing. We got video updates, as well as pictures while my husband and I were out at Kennywood. It took a lot for us to leave our baby for the first time, but Michael immediately made us feel comfortable. He also has quite the impressive set up that accommodates all dogs needs. Amare’ didn’t want to leave when we picked her up! We will absolutely be returning customers. If you’re thinking about booking him for your dog, read no further and DO IT! Thank you so much again, Michael!”
“Melissa was amazing. Jake and I received an amazingly warm welcome when dropping off. My dog has anxiety issues and Melissa and her crew were wonderful. They took Jake on walks, took him to the park and he was so happy. Truly one of the best experiences Jake and I have had. So incredibly wonderful.”
About: A couple of months after we married my husband adopted our first dog, Sandy, and I’ve been hooked ever since. That was 26 years ago. Both of my sons are adults now so I have free time to focus my attention on your baby. Your baby will have my undivided attention. My property is fenced and I will accompany your baby outdoors. We can play fetch or simply keep each other company. I will do what it takes to make your baby comfortable and happy.
“Anthony and Leslie took such good care of our Harley! We received so many pictures throughout the day, so I was confident he was taken well care of. I would definitely book with them again. Thank you!”
“Sarah is absolutely wonderful with our 6 year old dog, Meeko. Meeko absolutely adores being at her house to play fetch all day long and take long walks in the woods. I would highly recommend Sarah for all of your dog sitting needs! She treats Meeko just like she would her own dog. Meeko has an absolute blast every time he stays at Sarah’s!”
“Quinn's stay with Amy was great! This was her first time at DayCare and she was very happy when we picked her up! Amy is so nice and welcoming. Thanks so much for a great experience!”
“Booked doggy daycare for the day and as always Cassandra was great! My husband and I have peace of mind while we are away because we know our puppy is in good hands. Cassandra sends updates/pictures and stays in communication. Best part is that our puppy loves her and her family!”
“Alisha has been my regular sitter for about 2 months now & I feel very lucky to have found her! My dog, Cooper, is treated like part of the family & is always worn out when he gets home. I feel confident that he is safe & I still get consistent updates on what they’re up to all day. She is one of the best you could find!”
“10/10 would recommend. You can tell how much effort she put into her bio and her house setup for pets. She's such a sweetheart very reasonably priced but deserves a good tip. I love how experienced she is with a variety. I love the play places she has setup for the pets. I am excited to hopefully keep coming to her. She even gave us a little goodie bag. It was so cute. I especially enjoyed the updates and pics and Vids. Wendy is wonderful”
About: I am a patient and caring dog owner who has been surrounded by pets my whole life. They are a complete part of our family! I currently work from home with my 1 small senior dog (under 10 pounds) in the house. In the past, I have had Labrador Retrievers and a Viszla. All have been rescues. In recent years, I was heavily involved in a senior dog rescue and fostered a wide variety of dogs. Many of the dogs had supplemental needs, requiring additional care. This included strict medication schedules, teaching blind dogs to navigate their surroundings, teaching dogs with special needs to learn confidence and better mobility, and even one from a hoarding situation that needed to completely learn socialization skills and how to walk on grass! Your dog will be completely pampered and showered with affection during the time we are together. Your dog will be treated like a royal guest! We have plenty of large windows to look out and soft couches to relax on. We even have stools at each couch for our smaller guests to get up and down easily! :) If your pup prefers alone time, we have plenty of doggie beds for them to choose from. I strive to offer them a home away from home, all while allowing them to freedom to wander and relax wherever they feel comfortable. I look forward to meeting your pup! I currently work from home with a flexible schedule that is determined by me. I am home all day and can attend to your pet's needs whenever necessary. If they are at my home, I allow your pet to wander freely and find a spot to relax wherever they feel comfortable. My goal is to provide them with as much playtime and attention as they want when we are together. I will live up to your expectations and follow directions completely. I look forward to caring for your pet in whatever way necessary. I have experience caring for dogs with extreme needs and will be sure to give your pet the best care in the world. I will also send pictures and/or videos of our time together if you wish.
“This was my dog's first day at dog day care and it was only for a couple hours just to try it out. But everything went very well. Chang updated me with pictures shortly after dropping my dog off to assure me he was doing well. When I picked him up he was happy to see me but also seemed like he would have followed Chang back to her house if she wanted him to. So that was very comforting to see that he liked her. I will be a repeat customer.”

Evenings vary, but just ask and I'll see if I can make it work! I am unable to care for pets at my home at this time, but I am happy to follow any instructions you may have for caring for your pet at your home.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with them. I’m dependable, caring, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs.

I believe every pet deserves individualized care based on their unique needs, personality, and routine. In a client’s home, I work to maintain their normal schedule by providing feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, exercise, and lots of affection.

She has gone above and beyond during her walks with Alfie, giving him so much attention and giving us updates that clearly show how well he is taken care of. It gives us such peace of mind to have found someone so great to look after our pup. Cannot say enough about Danielle, you need to book her!”
About: Animals have been in my life ever since I was a baby with two goldfish. Throughout my life, I have notably had 3 cats and 1 dog. I worked in a professional pet care environment at PetSmart and even have some experience caring for farm animals. I am very familiar with various pet products, grooming, and some medications. I can generally work my schedule around any reasonable weekly routine. For house sitting I'm available for up to two weeks at a time and we can potentially negotiate for a longer stay. I have a senior cat who is a picky eater with medication and special dietary needs. This makes me good at paying attention to dietary needs. I enjoy playing with pets a lot and I pay a lot of attention to their needs. You can expect me to give your pets lots of enrichment activities.

About: Hello! My name is Monica, I am 22 years old and just moved to Ambridge from St. Augustine, Florida. I work full time, which more often than not means I am working 8+ hr shifts. Please reach out via text and I'd be happy to discuss my services and your expectations :) As I mentioned, I work full time at my current job at a local veterinary hospital. For the right rate, and with enough notice, I am more than happy to request off - but we would need to discuss that when the situation presents itself! I have one pup of my own, so I would be coming to your home. I would never bring your pet to my home unless that was previously discussed. I am willing to introduce our dogs prior if this is what you would prefer
“Elizabeth was so great with our boys!! She sent great pictures from their walks & was so communicative. My dogs seemed to love her and they got to enjoy some time out of the house when we weren’t home for the day.”
About: Caring for pets has always been part of my life, not just something I do, but something I truly love. I share my home with my big-hearted Golden Retriever Lucy Goose who brings joy, structure, and a lot of personality into my daily routine. Through her—and the many pets I’ve cared for—I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, medications, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. I’ve also had the joy of hosting pets with special needs, recently including a vivacious little pug puppy with epilepsy. Providing a calm, consistent, and loving environment is something I take pride in. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, respect, and genuine affection—just like one of my own. While away, your pet is my family and I am fiercely protective of my family. Hi, I’m Jess! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom to a sweet Golden Retriever who’s very much part of my everyday life. Caring for pets is something that feels natural to me—it’s woven into my daily routine, not something squeezed in as an afterthought. My Lucy Goose is a large Golden Retriever with the sweetest, most gentle “little dog energy.” She’s very social, kind, and welcoming, and does wonderfully with dogs of all sizes. She has happily shared her space with smaller dogs and special-needs pets, and all interactions are always supervised to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I work during the week for about 6–8 hours a day, and outside of that time my life revolves around walks, fresh air, playtime, and creating a calm, loving home. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, and I’m intentional about making sure every pet in my care gets plenty of attention, affection, and consistency. I treat every pet like they’re my own—learning their quirks, honoring their routines, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, backyard playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them right where they are. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can truly relax. My home includes a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor play, and I supervise pets closely throughout the day. I also have a few pup gates to ensure safe calm and private pet feedings or if quiet time is needed. I also use cameras for added peace of mind and awareness while I am out and about. Whether pets are in my home or yours, I follow routines carefully, respect boundaries, and keep a watchful eye on behavior, comfort, and wellbeing. I communicate openly and provide updates because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and cared for.

“I am totally comfortable leaving our dog (2 y/o Whippet) with Anthony as his caregiver. Anthony is conscientious about sending pics and updates, and I know Finn is getting exercise and attention when he is with Anthony.

We are delighted to have found Anthony (and his wife, Leslie) on our first Rover experience = they are the real-deal. I am happy to recommend!”

After doing much research and lots of experience, I've learned a lot about a dog's language and how to respect them. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will love on them just the same. I can't wait to meet your fur-babies! Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around. I can easily crate if need be as well.
“Heidi and her family were great. Zoey and Lucy were great dog hosts and got along with Sage very well. They have a nice fenced-in yard and a very dog friendly house. Great experience, would recommend and will be at the top of my list next time I need someone to watch the doggo.”
“Michael took awesome care of our 14 year old xtra large girl including giving medication 3 times a day also surprised us by how social she was with the other dogs . We looked forward to the daily videos they gave us peace of mind while we were away. Been home a couple days I think Bella misses being there. Will definitely book with him again. Highly recommend him !”
“Meliisa and her family are amazing !!! They took such great care of Balto !! Balto became part of the family while he was there and enjoyed all the things he does at home :). Highly recommend Meliisa !!”
“Kate is absolutely amazing! We left our dog with Kate for his first “sleepover” and she went above and beyond to keep us updated the entire time and sent so many photos while we were away on our trip. She took Frankie on tons of walks, played, and he was tuckered out when we returned home to him. Thank you Kate, we will definitely rebook again in the future!”
“Stacey was great. She has a lot of experience with bigger dogs, and I felt immediately comfortable with her watching my dog after meeting her. I hope to book with her again!”
“Esmirna took such good care of my boy! She kept me updated and let me know how he was doing. This was the first time I left Jack with someone and I will definitely continue to book with Esmirna again :)”
“Kim was so accommodating with me. Willow was going to arrive around 2pm, then 4pm and then after 5pm as our drive and lunch stop took longer than expected. Willow is not used to other dogs since she is an only dog at home and can get quite stressed but she was great when I picked her up and Kim and her husband updated me with pictures with her on their laps and outside. She was always very prompt to respond. Nice big back yard which Willow loves. Overall, it was a great experience - way better than a kennel.”
“Patrick and Emily were fabulous! Zeke loved it there. They provided pics and updates and took very good care of our puppy while we were away! Highly recommended”

Angela is available during evenings and weekends. We can be available on some holidays. We will ensure that your pets are safe and we handle with a lot of care and love.

“Lindsay and her family were wonderful and accommodating. They were also very flexible with my pickup time. They and their dog Murphy took great care of Sadie. I will certainly use Lindsay again to take care of Sadie next time I’m in the area. I highly recommend.”
“Winston had a great time at Chang’s home! She was very communicative throughout his stay, sending regular updates and photos. Winston was ready for rest after a long weekend of play at Chang’s. Thank you for taking such good care of our pup!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 18. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets! I’m a stay at home mama to my amazing kids and two dogs! We have a fenced in yard that they love to play around in and we enjoy walks everyday it’s nice out! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company! I’m very accommodating if your dog needs extra love! I am always home so they won’t ever be left alone for long periods of time.
“Rae and her family really worked hard to make my anxious Bichon, Hope feel at ease.. Hope came from neglect and abuse the first 5 months of her life before we adopted her. She gets anxious with anyone above her trying to pet her, but after a day, her anxieties were minimized and she felt more at home! I appreciate all your love and support with Hope!”
“I would give 10 stars if I could! I had a last minute work trip and Richard was so accommodating. So kind and I am so appreciative. Mosi had a great time and was ready for a nap when he came home!”
“Asher M. was a wonderful pet sitter for my two boys! This was the first time that I have ever had anyone, besides family members, watch my two cats. My boys are almost 12, and one is diabetic, but I had no concerns during my trip. Asher stayed in contact with me, gave me his personal cell phone number, and even sent me pictures of my two cats during my trip. I appreciated all of this greatly, and cannot recommend his care enough! Thank you for making my first experience with not only Rover, but also with boarding my two cats anywhere, a smooth and stress free experience. I will book again with Asher M. if I find myself needing another boarding for my two.”
