“Emily did a wonderful job!! We requested early morning visits, with one of our dogs requiring insulin injections, eye drops, and other medication, and Emily delivered! Our pups loved her too!”

“Tim is an absolute delight. Flexible and easy to work with. I was impressed at the meet and greet that he was completely unfazed when my little dogs were snarly and scared. He was so good with them and they both warmed up to him quickly. Having had other bad sitter experiences, I felt so at ease during my trip knowing that we had someone reliable giving our two dogs and two cats lots of love and attention. Can’t recommend him enough. He’ll take great care of your babies.”

“Georgia helped me last minute in a pinch and I’m so happy I found someone I can trust! She’s very knowledgeable and friendly. I’d give her 10 stars if I could! Definitely will use again.”

About: I have experience with everything from Chihuahuas to Great Danes (and also rabbits and cats). Im willing to walk, play, train and just be there for your fur baby. I also have experience with deaf dogs and am comfortable giving medication if needed. Im currently a self employed travel and nature photographer which gives me the ability to have the time and flexibility to work with your petcare needs. I have a large fenced in yard to exercise your pets in if needed. My favorite thing is going on long walks as well as off leash play and enrichment time.
“Can't thank Elizabeth enough! We needed a drop in visit last minute. Elizabeth responded quickly and came over for a meet and greet within an hour. Elizabeth quickly bonded with Luna our 1 year old pitbull mix. We received updates and pictures during her visit. We will definitely be using Elizabeth in the future.”

“Julie was absolutely amazing with my kitties, and it was such a relief to know that they were in great hands while I was away! I loved getting the photos and thoughtful updates she provided, and my cats loved her! I would give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could!”

“Absolutely phenomenal service. One of the most detail oriented pet care providers we have ever worked with (including in the NYC, Philadelphia, and Chicago areas). Follows instructions incredibly well, takes tons of great photos, and is evidently very experienced with nervous animals. Her detailed rover report cards indicate how thoughtful she is. Could not have asked for better care!”


About: My family has always been an animal house; I have 3 dogs, a cat and a bird! I also have been housesitting and petsitting dogs and cats for my neighbors since I was 12-13. Additionally, I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter (Main Line Animal Rescue) by going through dog walk orientation and worked with all sorts of dogs. I am excited to help others out and watch over their pets using my experience! I’m home for the summer from college, so I have plenty of free time! I am available for dog walking, housesitting, or overnight sitting during days of the week and also weekends. I make sure to always pay attention to each pet and see what they need according to what the owner needs (food, water, bathroom time, playtime, walks) and make sure to keep an eye on them, as well as adjusting to what they prefer - whether it be a lot of pets or just some company! I am experienced with walking a lot of different dogs and will give them plenty of love and attention.

“Elena was an exceptional pet sitter and went above and beyond in caring for my babies. From the start, she was professional, kind, trustworthy, and very attentive to all instructions. She made sure my pets were comfortable, well-fed, and happy, and it was clear she genuinely cares about animals. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, and I will absolutely book her again.”

“Sara was a wonderful and warm cat sitter while we were away for 6 days! We could tell from the updates and photos that Sara sent that our kitty really warmed up to her and looked forward to her visit each day. Sara was reliable and responsive to us and to our kitty's needs, We would book Sara for future cat sitting for sure.”

About: I have always had pets in my life, dogs, cats, gerbils, snakes, turtles, fish... I am very comfortable with everything I've come across so far.

I am very respectful of your home and property, and will do my utmost to follow your instructions to keep your loved-one(s) safe and well cared for.
“Shagun was a great communicator and updated me on her visit. When my door lock was an issue, she reached out and tried multiple things to get the door locked before leaving and confirming with me.”


About: We are nestled on 2.5 acres in North Coventry Township. We have a large portion of the property fenced in offering plenty of safe playtime. Our beloved bulldog went to the Rainbow Bridge & we are currently pet free. ** Please note – while we are currently dog free, we are no longer hosting non dog friendly. I have an animal science degree and have owned and operated a pet sitting business for over 20 years. I have also worked as an educator for the Philadelphia Zoo. Animals are my education and my career, taking "animal lover" to a different level. :-) We are unable to host large dogs. Small to medium sized dogs only. We host one dog at a time to make sure your furkid gets our undivided attention. If you live in the Pottstown area, I am also able to offer drop in visits & walking at your home. Please message for details. Additionally, we offer bird/parrot boarding if you or someone you know would like for their feathered kid to have lots of interaction. I have decades of bird experience from my time working at the Zoo & I had an African Grey parrot for 20 years. I have many sized cages available for your birds stay (if you choose to use one of mine) to allow for a seamless pick up/drop off experience. Feel free to message me with any specific questions.😁🐶🦜 I own a pet sitting business & have a flexible schedule that allows me to be home for long periods at a time. I’m in & out, but more in than out. Jason is also home full-time three days per week. Between both of our schedules, there is very close to constant company. I have a large fenced in yard fior plenty of secure and supervised playtime. I only take one dog at a time to make sure this is a fun & safe experience. I own a pet sitting business, so I’m in and out throughout the day. Jason is home full-time three days per week and home until 3:30 the other days. There is close to constant supervision. We have a spacious and secure fenced in yard in a country setting. We have some acreage where we can walk your dog as well. Unless we're out doing something together, someone is usually home. There may an occasional hour or two that no one is home. So pretty close to constant supervision. I have a very large & secure fenced in area. I always ask owners what they do with their dog at home & try to match that. For example, if you crate when you leave your house, I would do the same.
About: I have been taking care of neighborhood cats a dogs since I was 10. I'm a fur mom to a cat and a dog. Your pets will be treated with the upmost care and respect as if they are my own. I do work a flexible full time job. My main preference is to assist on the weekends as I offer the most availability and flexibility. I will follow all instructions left such as crating, time feeding and mental games. This will allow for ease of transition into pet sitting and attending to your furry companion.
Bucktown cat parents share their Rover experiences
10 out of 10!! Norah took care of my cat while we were on vacation. She went above and beyond. She communicated with me daily and sent pics of our cat. She is very observant and noticed that the automatic cat feeder was out of food. I would definitely rebook her. Thanks Norah!
