“Melissa did an excellent job staying at our home and caring for our Great Dane Parker June. Kept us updated while we were away and our home was the way we left it. Will be using again for our future sitting needs.”


“Austin was awesome! He took great care of our two Welsh Terrorists (terriers) at our residence while we were in Mexico for a week. He really loves dogs and is very mild mannered. One of the terriers is named Austin so perhaps there was some symbiotic thing going on but Peaches was just as enamored with him.”

“Hannah was awesome! It was so nice being able to leave our dog at our home vs boarding. He was very well cared for and was his happy typical self when we got home. We’d definitely request Hannah’s pet sitting again!”
“We are SO glad we found Tyler… couldn’t be happier! He stayed with our sometimes over reactive dog for a week and it went well . Tyler is very attentive and kind. Sent updates and could easily be reached. Kept house clean and neat. Was great before our trip coming over to let our dog get used to him. So appreciated… will definitely use him again! Feel like we can go away and our dog is in caring hands. Thanks Tyler!!”

About: I am a very reliable care taker, having experience watching family and neighbor’s pets, along with taking care of their house needs while away. I am punctual and absolutely LOVE animals! I will make sure to give your animals plenty of attention and love and care! I am currently a senior in high school, free all summer, so I am mostly always available to help any day of the week including the weekends! I currently have two cats in my family and am responsible for cleaning their litter and feeding the cats, specifically giving the correct medications for one of the cats with health problems. I have experience with dogs too, walking, playing, feeding, etc.
“Brooke was wonderful with our dog, Sage. She took great care of him and of our home, and was very communicative so we knew everything was going well the whole time we were away.”


About: I've taken care of my friends cats and dogs and have done house sitting locally for a few years. I always enjoy making new furry friends. Pet sitting, along with making art is my main gig so my schedule is very flexible. I try to plan pet sitting 1-2 weeks in advance. I am very observant and will cater to your specific needs. Pets require love and attention. Give me detailed directions and I will follow them to the best of my ability.
“Zania is a treasure. For anyone looking for a responsible, respectful and caring dogwalker for the Lancaster County area, Zania is wonderful. I have a young active terrier and a very Senior, deaf and partialy blind terrier. She was very careful with both. Followed my care instructions and asked appropriate questions to determine how to best meet their needs. She fed them, gave potty breaks and gave my Senior dog her medications with no issues. The dogs loved her.”

“Amazing experience with Tiffany! She literally saved our week. At the last minute our regular dog sitter was unable to come, so I reached out to Tiffany (based on her previous great reviews). I think she heard the panic in my voice and reassured me that she could help out! She stopped in later that evening for a meet and greet. Totally put my mind at ease. Her visit included mother’s day and she rearranged her time with her family to be able to accomodate us! House looked great when we came home and Lucy very happy. Would highly recommend Tiffany!🐾”

“Sydney was great with Chloe. She was super communicative. And did way more than she signed up for. Chloe was on a Medicine by the time of the visit, and helped with our pool maintenance, flower watering, etc. I would have her again in a heartbeat. Chloe was in great hands.”

“We had a wonderful experience with our Misty. She took care of our two dogs, including one who has medical issues and requires medication. She made sure the pills were given on schedule and handled everything with care and responsibility. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such dependable hands. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cares about the animals she watches. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter.”

“Lexie was such an amazing sitter! She took care of my pup for a week while I was out of the country. She was very communicative and took great care of my Remi. She sent me daily updates (often times 2x) and made sure that my high-energy guy was active (and tired) and well cared for. She also helped me out at the last minute, picking up a package for me. I felt so at ease having Lexie as our dog sitter and will absolutely use her again in the future.”

About: I grew up with pets since I was a little girl - raising 3 dogs and 2 cats. I’m currently not a pet owner, because although I’d love to, I live in a small apartment! However, I frequently help out family and friends with their own pets - rather that be pet sitting for a short weekend or walks throughout the day! I’m flexible and attentive. I can help with, but I’m not limited to: Feeding pets and putting out fresh water Brushing and grooming pets Bathing pets Cleaning litter boxes Walking dogs in all kinds of weather Vacuuming up pet hair Giving medications Taking pets to the vet in emergency situations Notifying owners of any injuries or sickness, and keeping them updated on their pets and home I look forward to working with you! I’m currently focused on building a flexible work schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins throughout the week and weekends. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks, playtime, and keeping pets company fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m also communicative and dependable, and I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of love, attention, and updates while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment where pets can feel secure and cared for. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication instructions, potty breaks, and individual personalities or needs. I understand that every animal is different, so I take the time to help them feel comfortable and build trust at their pace. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and consistent communication so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: Veterinary Assistant with hands-on experience in animal care! I work with animals each and every day, so I’m very comfortable with all types and sizes. I’m very patient, trustworthy, and dedicated. I’d love to help make pet care easy and stress-free for you and your pets!🤍😁 I do work full time at a Veterinary Clinic, but our hours are limited due to a fire :( I’m pretty flexible during the week! I have a 3 year old Bulldog Mix of my own and I care for him all on my own. I’m used to walks everyday, scheduled potty break, and meals. I’m willing to learn your furry friends schedule and make adjustments to help their needs :)
“Where to begin. Colleen is quite literally the cutest and sweetest person we have ever had the privilege of meeting. We are first time parents to our newly adopted tortie kitten Bootsie. She’s four and half months old and is quite the handful, she’s also very attached to mom and dad. So it goes without saying we were a little nervous about leaving her side. Colleen came in and just blew us away with how patient and courteous she was to our fur baby from the start. We knew instantly we had found the perfect person to watch over her. She truly has a passion for what she does and eased any concerns we had. She was on time and gave us much needed updates throughout her stay. They bonded so well together we were shocked! If you’re lucky enough to have her look after your fur baby consider it a blessing. Colleen you are so special and you’ll be in our memories forever thank you so so much!!!”

“Whitney was an excellent house and kitty sitter. We were gone for over three weeks (and Whitney watched our home and cats for two weeks of that time). She gave daily updates with pictures, quickly responded to messages, showed up on time, and was very professional. Our home and our kitties were in great shape when we returned. We would book Whitney again in a heartbeat.”

West Lancaster pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sydney was great with Chloe. She was super communicative. And did way more than she signed up for. Chloe was on a Medicine by the time of the visit, and helped with our pool maintenance, flower watering, etc. I would have her again in a heartbeat. Chloe was in great hands.

This was our first time using Misty for an overnight stay since moving to Lancaster, and she made the entire experience easy and reassuring. Like many pet parents, our dogs are spoiled and not used to being left behind, so finding someone we could trust was important. Misty was responsive, communicative, and professional from the start. She made the sign-up and scheduling process simple, took the time to meet our dogs beforehand, and kept us updated throughout her stay. While we were away, she sent regular photos and sweet updates, which gave us real peace of mind. When we returned, the house was in perfect order and the dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful to have found Misty and will absolutely use her again in the future.

Tyler stayed with my dogs overnight for several days. Tyler was extremely nice and caring, and not at all fazed by my big rambunctious dogs! I felt comfortable giving Tyler my garage code to the house and got lots of updates on how everyone was doing at home while I was gone. I’m so glad to have another reliable dog sitter I can reach out to in the future! Highly recommended to anyone looking for pet sitting!

Ally was sensational. I’ve never had my pets take to someone so quickly. Ally went the extra mile to make sure our fur babies were taken care of while we were away. When my old pup wasn’t eating due to us being away, she brought pumpkin puree to encourage her to eat. 😁 We also just got 2 new kittens and she made sure to protect any areas they wanted to attack and keep everything in one piece 😂. We highly recommend Ally and look forward to her caring for our babies next time we’re away.

Hannah was wonderful! She was communicative the whole time and I felt that my cats were in the best hands. She tried several things when one of the cats wasn’t eating well and got her back on track. Hannah also ended up staying an extra day when our flight got cancelled and her willingness and flexibility to do that made a very stressful situation much easier to deal with.

Marlena was fantastic! She met w Nova and he instantly loved her. She kept me updated w pics along the way. He was happy and calm- and as a 13yo cranky senior- that’s a big ask! She definitely was an excellent fit and I am so happy to have found and worked with her!

Emily did a great job with our 4 pups while we were away for several days on vacation. She followed our directions well and kept our pups happy, especially considering the high demand of lots of terrier snuggles. Thanks so much for keeping our pups happy and healthy to help make our vacation successful!
