“Great person and very reliable, our dogs loved her. She fed them, played, took for walks and cleaned up after. We were getting pictures and messages while we were away, it was such relief knowing that the puppies are safe and looked after. Will definitely using her services in the future. Thank you”

“Alexys provided house sitting for us for ten days. She did a phenomenal job, kept us updated frequently, and followed our instructions beautifully. She was respectful of our home and maintained it well during her stay. We would invite her back to sit again! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Nutmeg.”

“Ari did a great job taking care of Shadow while I was away. He provided updates, and pictures and videos daily, and was awesome about following the care instructions I provided. I think Shadow was a little sad to see Ari go, and I would definitely rebook!”

About: Growing up around all types of animals helped me develop my current love for them! I’m an aspiring veterinary student that would love to get more experience :) I currently take care of my own dogs at home, while also have taken care of cats numerous times! I’ve been taking care of animals since I was born, this comes naturally to me. I care for pets like they’re my own, giving them the love and care that I would if it were in my own home. Every animal deserves kindness!

“I will definitely be using Rich again for a puppy sleepover. He was great with communication and asked appropriate questions. Very reliable and trustworthy. Needed a last minute change while booking and he was extremely understanding and flexible. I felt at ease with all the adorable photos he sent of my fur baby. Definitely recommend. Also, went above and beyond what I asked. Thank you Rich!”

“1,000,000/5 stars for Jesse’s phenomenal job babysitting my energetic 2 year old pug!! I was in a pinch as a loved one unfortunately passed, leaving me on a time crunch to find a sitter for a funeral. My dog is recovering from eye surgery which initially made me nervous about putting him in someone else’s care. From other reviews, I could instantly tell that Jesse would be the perfect fit, and I could not be happier with the outcome! Jesse went above and beyond with excellent communication, punctuality, a positive attitude, and a relaxed demeanor. My dog and Jesse instantly got along, Jesse was ready to jump right in! I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands, an understatement. Jesse was so awesome that I’m thinking of planning some vacations, I won’t have to even think twice about who to go to for watching my little pup. I’m so happy that my dog has a new buddy and someone I can truly trust. I highly recommend his services and will be spreading the word. If you’re looking for a sitter, JESSE IS THE BEST!!!!!!”

“Dana came in clutch and helped us with a last minute request. She provided great updates, followed instructions well, and sent cute pics along the way. She took great care of our 2 big goofy dogs and would definitely reach out to her for help in the future 😊”

About: Ever since I got my Labrador retriever 4 years ago, I've walked many dogs and pups around my neighborhood. I am responsible and patient with each and every dog. My labrador weighs 105 pounds, so no matter size or breed I can handle each pup with as much loving care as I can offer. **Se habla español. Soy de Colombia, si necesitas que les camino tu perrito, me pueden mandar un mensaje en espanol.** I work a part time job at a supermarket nearby on Sunday til 3pm. I am available any time after that. Additionally, I am available anytime Fridays or Saturdays. I am very flexible and can work with any pawrents schedule :). I love going for long walks, so that your pup can take a nice nap afterwards. I personally like to be outdoors as much as possible with my Labrador because he loves sunbathing and playing fetch. Sometimes I drive him to a park nearby, but no matter what place I take care of a pup I ensure that they are comfortable and safe.

“Alexandria was so great with my dog Neko. She was affectionate and caring with her, and she communicated well with me, to make me feel at ease for leaving her. Alexandria followed all my instructions and was very friendly and personable too. I also really like that she was able to be at my house with my dog for almost the whole stay. That's a very big plus when you have a dog with separation anxiety! I would definitely book her again!”

“Brandon was great and handled all three of our pups with equal attention and love. He was very respectful of the house and provided constant updates on everything. We were highly impressed and appreciative and will definitely look to have him return. Thanks!”

“Emma was great. She walked Anastasia a lot and provided great company to Anastasia. Would love to have her sit again.”

About: I am 33 years old. I was raised around animals. My father had every pet you can think of in our home. I have experience with cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish, guinea pig, turtles , andeven ponies. I love animals and wish I could own a farm or something similar just so I could be surrounded by animals. I have used rover in the past but lost my login info but I was a dog sitter for about a year. I live in an apartment near Pennypack Park so I can take your pets on walks there or outside my building are grassy areas. If you book with me you will not regret it. I make sure your pets are fed, walked, taken out and played with. I love cuddling and playing with animals. I will take pictures and keep you updating if you would like. I cant wait to hear from you!! I only work weekend nights starting next weekend. I am free any other time. I also have kids who love animals and would love to help. I make sure to have all pets on whatever routine they are used to or I will make one that fits the routines in my house. They will be walked, fed and played with however long they are with me.

“Simona is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my two senior dogs while we were on vacation, giving them the extra attention and love they needed. She also watched over our menagerie of reptile pets perfectly, which gave me such peace of mind. Simona checked in with us regularly, sent plenty of photos, and made sure to ask questions whenever she wasn’t sure—something we really appreciated. It’s clear she truly cares about animals of all kinds. We couldn’t have asked for a better petsitter—highly recommend!”

About: Since I was about 6 years old I’ve been catching stray animals and caring for them. I don’t plan on having animals from different homes together unless it is okay by the pet owner. I will be more than happy to bathe your animal if they need it, yes cats too. I don’t have anything toy or food wise so please provide items for your furry friends visit to my place. Thank you for considering me for your pet needs! I really hope we get in touch soon! I am currently working towards my RE license at Kaplan University (online) so I’m basically home all the time. My schedule is very flexible and who doesn’t have time for puppy snuggles? I care for pets like they are my children 😂. I find activities to do with them that they enjoy playing catch, tug-a-war, napping, etc. I give them lots of love and let them know I’m happy they’re here.

“Always such a great caretaker for our animals. They have provided so much help with last minute assistance with our animals. TreDerica is incredibly communicative and has always shared so many pictures with us while we are away. Will happily book multiple times !”

“We booked Justine last minute for an overnight trip. She was on time and I think she handled our big and strong dog well. We were in a rush to get out and she even did the dishes we left in the sink! Thanks again!”

Samantha P.

“This was the first time we’ve had an overnight dog sitter. My pups were a little anxious at first but eventually warmed up to Isaiah and looked happy in the last pic he sent. He stayed in great communication and gave great updates. We will definitely use him again!”

“This was our second time having Brittany care for Bleu, and I couldn't have felt more confident leaving her in Brittany's hands. While we were away, Bleu had a seizure, and Brittany handled it calmly and with excellent judgment. She stayed right with her, kept me informed throughout, and even sent me a video so I could see exactly what was happening. Being away in Mexico, it was enormously reassuring to know that if something unexpected happened, Brittany could handle it. She is incredibly conscientious and caring. She also went above and beyond by bringing in our mail and newspapers, taking out the trash, and even filling the bird feeder. I feel completely secure knowing Bleu is in her care, and that peace of mind when we're away is invaluable.”
