“Brandon was great with our mini dachshund. He sat with her for the evening while we went out. He got her to eat, which isn’t easy. We came home to a happy pup!! We already rebooked him.”
“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”
“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”
“Would give Allison 10 stars, if we could! She took outstanding care of our home and most importantly Fiona! Will definitely have her stay again. Trust-worthy, Responsible, Caring…she sent the best pictures and kept us updated. Thanks Allison!!”
“Valerie was the best pet sitter we have had. She took great care of our 3 dogs and cat. Usually when we get back they are so relieved for us to be home but I think they missed Valerie which makes me happy. I would highly recommend her. Our dogs can be at times a little much and a little overwhelming, but she took care of them great.”
About: I will happily care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. Whether your pet wants to lay around or go for a hike, we can do that! I have experience training a dog of my own, so I can maintain your usual basic training/rules if needed. I also have experience giving medication. I have plenty availability in my schedule to fit your needs. I am currently available nearly 24/7. I am not away for longer than 8 hours at a time any given day. I will care for your pet in your own home. I will abide by the rules of your home and look after your pet like they were my own.
“Katie is absolutely amazing. This was my first time getting a sitter for my dog and rabbit and i cannot express how easy she made the process. She’s 100% trustworthy and reliable. Leo and bun loved her so much they trusted her right away. My dog was a lot of work and has a lot of energy and it didn’t phase her at all. I would definitely recommend her to anybody who wants a sitter that cares and puts her all into your animals. My house was left exactly how i left it and my animals were beyond well taken care of. We will most definitely go straight to her when we need a sitter in the future ❤️”
About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, and bunnies my whole life! I used to train our labs. Recently I have had fish experience, fresh water tropical fish and used to own a flock of chickens. I can help you with all your pet care needs! I work full time, but am able to help out before and after work weekdays and all day weekends and federal holidays. I would love to help you family! I am off the week of Thanksgiving and between Christmas and new years. I am able to give excellent care to your pets! I run regularly and can take on walks as well as do the care your pets need!
About: Hello! I have been caring for dogs since I was young as I grew up on a small farm. From inside and outside dogs, to now owning two labradors of my own that I have raised up from puppies. I love walking, playing, and caring for your animals and hope to help you when you need me. I am in my last stretch of PA graduate school and my clinical hours change each month, but I am willing to help fit your animal into my schedule! Morning, evenings, and/or nights are best! I am willing to work with pet owner on times that work best for both of us. Weekends are more open as for times. I have experience walking all sized dogs and can attest to being successful in caring for other fur babies. I can follow any instructions given for the animal and whatever is needed for your pet!
“Marissa was very responsible. I had peace of mind that she was caring for my doggies. Especially for my dog that requires medication several times a day. I will definitely request her services again. Hopefully very soon!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Riley stayed in our home for 3 nights and took such wonderful care of our dogs. When we returned, our home was spotless and our pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Her communication was excellent throughout our trip—she sent us plenty of photos each day, which gave us such peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy and in great hands. We’ll absolutely reach out to her again the next time we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals my whole life. I’m always willing to watch a friend’s or family member’s pet when out of town. I find any excuse to be outside, so whether it’s a long walk or to play I am happy! We do not have any pets right now, so this is a great way to get that fix :) I work from home full-time, so majority of the time I am here and can have an eye on your pet. I am able to take short breaks throughout the day whether it’s over lunch and go on a long walk or just take some time to go play outside. I have a fenced yard that they can roam in if desired and can easily keep your pet crated as well if I need to leave or at night. Happy to accommodate the schedule you have set as much as possible especially if staying or visiting your home!
“Sienna is great! She is awesome at communicating and very loving to our Buddy. She spent lots of time with him and left the house exactly as we left it. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Caroline pet/house sat for us for a week. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats. This was our first time using Rover and Caroline. Caroline was a perfect match for our pets' needs! We couldn't have been happier with our experience. We will definitely be looking for Caroline's pet services the next time we need a sitter.”
About: Here is what you get when your cuties are in my care: - frequent pics and videos - very clean and very safe house and surroundings - update after food and poop breaks - updates right after on medicine administration - frequent walks - no kids around me - updates if they don’t eat or drink - individual attention. I am very intuitive and if a dog is trying to signal something, I will notice. I send pics and videos of pets every few hours and I give them very frequent pee and poop breaks. I make sure they eat proper and drink plenty of water. I am very attentive to your pets’ needs and I always take care of them as my own babies. If your pet is not friendly, it’s totally ok cause I can give them their space. I inform you everything you need to know about your pet so you can be at peace on vacation knowing your pet is happy with me 😍😀 I really try my best !! I do this as a hobby for my love for the dogs! I love having dogs over ❤️ I have an open schedule to cater to your dog as I am home with no kids around me. I have a very clean and loving house. Your babies can stay with us in the bedroom if you are ok with that. I really loving hanging out with dogs as it helps me keep my mind in peace.
