“Nick did a great job cat sitting for our 2 furry family members Binx and Sam. Sent pics too each time he stopped by. Would book again and recommend Nick to other customers. Jeffrey”
“Chelsea did a great job taking care of my bunnies and turtle while I was away. She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on how they were. I hope the next time I go away she can watch them again!”
About: I’ve always had experience with cats and dogs; I specialize in longer walks, which some may constitute as hikes! My dog is a bit too small and old for hikes but I would love to help other dogs get that energy out in a beneficial way. I have experience with senior dogs, and some puppy experience. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I am a college student focusing on my education which gives me plenty of flexibility and free time to take care of pets! I can crate dogs if that is a preference although I am very open to just spending time sitting or playing with them as well!
“Justina took great care of my cats while I was gone. She did daily check ins at my house, gave them so much love and attention, and sent me daily photos and updates. I will definitely be booking again for future trips.”
“Kate was wonderful with our three kitties. We had never worked with her before, and she was able to handle a complex situation that that involved medications with one of our kitties who is healing from a foot injury. She was also available on very short notice which was a huge relief to us. Her communication was excellent, and her enthusiasm and care for animals is immediately apparent. We highly recommend Kate and we’re so glad we have met her!!”
“Deb took great care of my cats while I was out of town. She did a great job of communicating with me and was very responsive to questions. My kitties were happy and well taken care of. I would definitely book Deb again in the future.”
“Fern was amazing! First rover i’ve ever gotten that i would book to sit twice. I have been burnt before in the past sadly but Fern sent so many photos and was so communicative and went above and beyond. I HIGHLY recommend her for your pet sitting needs! The cats loved her.”
About: I've cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and attention. I prioritize safety, comfort, and plenty of playtime, tailoring care to each pet's needs. My goal is happy pets, relaxed owners, and lots of cute photo updates along the way! Pet care is a big part of my weekly routine and something I truly enjoy! I'm available on weekends from Friday afternoon through Sunday evening, as well as weekday evenings after 5 PM. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend drop-ins, or overnight care, I’m happy to be there when your pet needs attention, exercise, or just some extra love. When walking dogs, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I stick to familiar routes (or approved ones from the owner), always use secure leashes/harnesses, and stay alert to surroundings—avoiding high-traffic areas or unfamiliar dogs. I take time to get to know each pup’s personality, pace, and comfort level to make every walk enjoyable and stress-free. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer adventure, your dog is in caring, capable hands!
About: I have had my own dogs and have taken care of others dogs for over 10 years. I have lengthy experience working with very large dogs ( great Danes, shepherds) and very small dogs ( dachshunds, Chihuahuas). I enjoy working with young, hyper puppies in need of somebody to keep up with their energy, as well as elderly dogs in need of somebody to provide them peace! I’m currently working part-time and finishing my college degree online, so I have plenty of time to take care of animals! I am available all days of the week at whatever time best suits your schedule. I have many years of experience working with animals so I am more than happy to care for your pet in whichever way you would prefer. I am able to crate all animals, walk all animals, administer medications, and whatever else is needed.
“Cora was great with my cat! She kept me updated with photos and let me know how my cat was doing each day. My cat is on the shyer side but Cora was able to play with her and keep her company!”
About: I have taken care of my own dog for three years in that time I have also helped take care of other animals for friends and family What I am looking for with pet care is to help add money to my college fund. I work part time as a waiter at a country club in York. This will help fulfill my time on my off days This is my first time pet caring outside of my friends and family circle but I love animals and would care for yours like my own giving them everything they need and more
“Libby was great! Our cat requires oral meds and she had no problem with it. She obviously spent time with him, giving him all the loving and rubs and hugs he demanded, and she sent photos and videos every visit. Cleaned the box, brought our papers up and took good care of everything! Highly recommend!!”
About: Over the past 35 years, we've had three dogs who lived to 13, 14 and 15 years. We are very familiar with older dogs as well as young dogs and enjoy playing with dogs. After the loss of our last dog, Lucy, we decided to take a break from having another dog as we were empty nesters. We love dogs and were encouraged by our grown children to try Rover. We live on a quiet street near the York Harbor Beach and our house is far from the road with woods all around us. I am a regular daily walker and would love to have a dog to walk with me on occasion. I am familiar with the regulations on leashes, beach hours and waste bags. We are generally home on the days we accept pet sitting to take care of any visiting dogs. We became pet sitters because we enjoy hanging out with dogs. We have a large backyard surrounded by woods far from roads as well as a home that is dog friendly. We live about 2/3 mile from a quiet beach and it is a perfect walk for most dogs.

Mary M.Star Sitter
“Mary watches my dog every time I’m away from home. About 5 weeks per year. My dog loves her and is always well taken care of (better than by me). I know for a fact that Mary walks about 5 miles a day so dogs are in heaven. She loves on a quiet street with almost no cars so it is very safe. My dog gets to walk to the beach everyday when staying with Mary! Highly recommended.”
