About: Of course I love animals, but what matters more to me is noticing who your pet actually is. Are they the kind of dog who needs to sniff the same corner for five minutes before moving on? Are they a little shy at first and pretending not to care? Do they get excited easily and need someone calm around them? Are they a cat who wants company, but absolutely not too much company? I really enjoy figuring out those little things. I’m gentle, patient, and very respectful of each pet’s routine. I don’t believe in rushing them or treating every animal the same. Some pets need play and attention, some need slow walks and quiet reassurance, and some just need someone kind nearby so the house does not feel empty. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that still feels familiar to them. I’m also very careful with instructions. Feeding routines, medications, walk preferences, favorite toys, things that scare them, how they like to be greeted, whether they are allowed on the couch. I want to know all of it. I know these details are not “extra.” They are usually the things that make a pet feel secure. I’ll also send updates and photos, not just to say everything is fine, but so you can actually feel connected to them while you are away. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, may also help me sometimes, and you may see her in some of my photos. She has had pets since childhood and fostered animals for several years, so she is very used to different personalities, nervous pets, affectionate pets, and animals who need a little extra patience. She is calm, loving, and very responsible, and I trust her completely with animals. Between the two of us, your pet will be cared for by people who genuinely like being around animals, but who also understand that trust matters. I’ll treat your pet with warmth, patience, and care, and I’ll treat your home and instructions with respect. This year, much of my work is remote, which gives me real flexibility in my schedule. That means I’m able to spend unrushed, attentive time with pets, not just quick check-ins, but actual companionship, care, and presence. I can shape my day around walks, visits, feeding times, play, and quiet company, depending on what each pet needs. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, who is included in the pictures, also helps me out with my Rover schedules. My home is my cat Lilo’s safe little kingdom, so I can’t host other pets here. But I’m very happy to come to your home, meet outside for walks, or figure out a setup that feels easy and comfortable for you and your pet.
“Elizabeth was a life saver when our plans for drop ins changed last minute. I know my pups were in excellent hands. She took time during out house visit to get to knew our girls and their quirks/ needs.”
“Michell and Tiago took great care of our cat Loona, and the photos and videos we got showed Loona happy and healthy too! Michell was very communicative and kept me in the loop of any updates. I was so reassured by their care for Loona, and would would definitely book again!”
“This is the second time we have booked Teresa for our senior kitties and they could not be in better hands. They are extremely well cared for when she comes to visit with them and it is a relief to know that she is there. She anticipates needs and communicates them clearly and efficiently. We love having her watch over our cats and hope to book with her again soon.”
About: I've had multiple pet sitting jobs over the years, ranging from in house stays to drop in visits with dogs of all age ranges & energy levels! Although I didn't grow up with cats personally, I have plenty of experience taking care of and socializing them. I'm available at all hours to take care of your pets! I would be able to drop in at any time to care for and spend time with them. I grew up with a Husky/German shepherd mix and currently have a golden doodle! I've taken care of dogs of many different personalities, ages and energy levels as well. I love doing whatever I can to make your pet as happy and comfortable as possible.
“Jada is excellent. Quick and painless with watching my beloved babies. Toward the end of the visit my VERY standoffish girl that usually stays away from people offered some cuddles which was pretty much a stamp of approval. Attentive, quick, and made sure to come on time to feed my babies. Will be booking again.”
“Breanna is amazing! Her calm nature is comforting to both pets and pet moms, and she clearly loves dogs! She is a great trainer and provides lots of love and care— also amazing photos. I don’t like to be away from my pup, but when Breanna is looking after her, I feel confident and assured that my pooch is in the best of hands. It is clear how much my pup loves her which is just another sign of the amazing work Breanna is doing. I highly recommend her!”
“Kia was great. I was able to go away for an extended work trip without worrying about my boys. I came home to happy well-fed cats. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone.”
“One of the best sitters on Rover! Always so kind and caring towards my pups! They’re absolutely obsessed with her. Always responsive and highly adaptive to whatever new needs arise with the pups. Absolute godsend!”
About: What sets me apart is my calm and gentle demeanor, especially beneficial for anxious or shy pets. I create a peaceful and reassuring environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable. I'm skilled at reading their body language and adapting my approach to their individual needs. I'm also very patient and understanding, giving them the time they need to adjust. I'm experienced in creating a safe and comfortable space, and I am very good at slow introductions. Pet care is a top priority in my daily and weekly routine. I believe in providing consistent care, so I establish regular feeding and walk schedules. I'm also flexible and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior and ensure they have fresh water and playtime. I genuinely love spending time with animals and providing them with the best possible care. My approach to pet care is built on providing a safe, happy, and healthy environment for every animal. Here's what that looks like: * Routine and Consistency: I understand the importance of routine, so I strictly follow feeding schedules and exercise plans provided by owners. * Personalized Attention: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their individual needs. Some dogs love fetch, while others prefer gentle cuddles. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and preferences. For example, with shy cats, I use slow, gentle movements and let them approach me on their own terms.
About: Hello! :) I've been pet sitting & working with animals for the past decade of my life!! I work with cats as well! But my heart truly loves dogs. What matters to me the most is making sure your pets are happy, healthy, & get their proper care. I do have experience with medication administration. I currently work at a doggy daycare facility as well as a professional dog sitting/walking company! :) NOTE:: I do require a 15-30 minute meet & greet before fully committing to a service. I do this for everyone's safety & to make sure we are a great fit for each other & your pet! FOR BOARDING: I do currently have my own puppy. He's a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel & he's 6 months old. Up-to-date on ALL vaccinations. Super friendly & can handle most situations with other dogs. House, leash, obedience, potty + crate trained! I also have a cat who is dog friendly but spends most of her time sleeping seeing as she is about 12 now! I work at a doggy daycare currently but I like to mainly focus on pet sitting professionally in most of my free time because I genuinely love to connect with dogs one on one. My schedule is extremely flexible! I do own a crate & lots of toys because I currently have my own puppy! I will always communicate with a pet parent before allowing dog boarding in my home. I do have access to plenty of dog parks if needed! As for caring for pets outside of my home, I will always watch for distress signals from pets. I always want to make sure your pet is happy, comfortable & safe. I will NOT push their boundaries unless advised by the owner to do so for medical reasons such as medication.
“Paz did a great job. She pays very close attention to detail, even going so far as to take lots of notes during our meet and greet. My dog is reactive so needs special care around other dogs. Paz followed my directions and safely navigated around the problems. She was also willing to take care of my dog despite having a sudden bout of diarrhea that started the day before her visit. Lots of pictures and excellent communication.”
About: As the mother of a 4 year old neutered Dalmatian and as a Veterinary Technician I come with the knowledge of wellness and emergency care as well as the exercise needs of your baby! You have a puppy or kitten that wants to play all day long ? No problem! I can teach him/her some basic training/tricks such as sit, stay, and the command “drop it” for safety reasons!

Both my dog and your pet can be separated upon request!* I have an open schedule throughout the week based on your needs as a client and the needs of your pet regardless of the time in the day! I provide a peaceful and quiet environment that fits perfect for an anxious pet but also a fenced backyard where your dog can run around for as long as they’ll like!

About: My three years of experience have taught me that every dog possesses a unique personality and set of needs. I prioritize your pet's comfort and happiness by treating them as if they were my own. My approach centers on maintaining a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine, whether that involves strict adherence to dietary schedules or managing high-energy play. I hold certifications in Experience with senior pets and Experience with special needs pets. I remain calm during emergencies, prioritizing quick, responsible decision-making while keeping you fully informed. I am punctual, kind, and empathetic, and I truly enjoy helping shy dogs come out of their shells. With my own reliable transportation, I am ready to provide your dog with the dedicated care they deserve. I look forward to treating your beloved companion with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to provide reliable, consistent walks and plenty of exercise, attention, and care. Animals have always been a part of my family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. My childhood dog lived to be 15 years old, and I was there to help care for him throughout his life, especially in his senior years when he needed extra support. He was truly my best friend and taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and attentive care. Today, I care for my own dog and cat every day by feeding them, giving them attention, and making sure they are happy and healthy. I walk my dog before and after work and throughout the day as needed, and I enjoy spending quality time playing with both my dog and cat. I have a genuine love for animals, but dog walking is something I especially enjoy. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities, and I will treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Drexel Hill
This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!
I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided for my dog. From the start, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. You won’t regret choosing her.
Amir was outstanding. He handled two drop-in visits for my dogs, Gizmo and Carter, with total professionalism. Gizmo can be a bit aggressive, but Amir managed him calmly and confidently, earning his trust. Both dogs were walked, fed, and given bathroom breaks exactly as scheduled and instructed. Amir sent clear updates with photos after each visit. He’s reliable, patient, and skilled with different temperaments—Amir is the kind of sitter you can count on every time. I’m so happy I found his profile. Looking forward to future visits with him.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
