“Our dog Remy had a wonderful stay with Yuhan and her furry family. Having someone with the same size dogs and similar breed gave us peace of mind knowing she knew the peculiarities of a shih tzu. She sent pictures often to delight my kids who missed him and we knew he was always having a good time. Highly recommend Yuhan as a wonderful small doggy caregiver!”
“This is our second time using Dylan and he is wonderful. He cares for Millie as if she was his own. His communication is excellent and he always sends updates with pictures. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.”
“I would 10/10 recommend Jennifer if you’re looking for dog boarding services. Jennifer and her family treats my dog with so much love and care. I have been using her service for almost a year already and can’t think of a better sitter for my dog. You won’t regret leaving your pup with her!! Thanks again for all you do, Jennifer!”
“Joseph was amazing with our pup, Cotton! He was able to step in at the last minute, which we really appreciated. Throughout the stay, he kept us updated with tons of photos and videos, showing Cotton happily playing with other dogs. It was great to see her so comfortable and social. Joseph’s communication was clear and consistent, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend him!”
“Gabriela clearly loves dogs. Ours was quite comfortable with her from the start. She also paid attention to details, asking very good questions about our dog’s routine and behaviors. She lives right next to a very nice trail through a park which our dog enjoys. Great communication during the booking and nice updates throughout the stay. We will certainly use Gabriela again!”
“Thank you Tracy and Brian for taking such good care of my two puppies! The pictures and videos from you while they were in your care were the icing on the cake! I could see how well you cared for them and kept them busy playing! I loved the "indoor pet play area"! They will definitely be returning!”

“Jaimi is literally the perfect sitter. Knight has a great time, he was so content! We even did a meet and greet and I just knew that Jaimi’s warm heart and Knights docile demeanor would be a perfect fit. She sent updated pics daily and communication was punctual and everything I could ask for. I will be using her in the future”
“Yuiko was amazing with my pup when we went away on vacation. She sent updates everyday to make sure I was informed and aware that he was okay. There were a few instances when my pup cried out during the night because we were away and she was patient and worked with him to make sure he felt comfortable. Will definitely be using her again! Thank you, Yuiko!”

You can tell she is very caring and passionate about pets/animals. She responds quickly and we are so lucky to find a pet-sitter for Yoshi as she is fantastic. We have already booked Yoshi for Thanksgiving for our kids are going to see their grandparents and we feel so lucky Yoshi is being taken care by Marilyn.”

Can’t wait to use her again! Highly recommend her! She’s wonderful.”

Elkins Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Hoda and Chris were excellent Rover hosts for our dog Samson. They were extremely responsive, shared frequent updates without being prompted to which we really appreciated, and they were attentive to Samsons unique needs. We provide a detailed writeup for anyone watching Samson and it was clear they had read the instructions and wanted to make his stay as comfortable as possible. We highly recommend Hoda and Chris for your dog watching needs and they will be our first choice for future trips!
Alexis went above and beyond to make sure Jazz felt totally at home and taken care of. Her energy is so lovely and sweet and she sent me so many photos and videos throughout my two week trip to ease my mind. She took jazz on many walks and gave her so much love and attention. When I came to pick up Jazz she didn’t want to leave because she had such an amazing time there. I will definitely be working with Alexis again as a sitter… and can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for an incredible experience for themselves and their pet.
Finding a reliable sitter, especially one comfortable with a breed like a German Shepherd is never easy. But Shanequa went above and beyond! She treated Luna like her own, and I felt completely at ease while I was away. She sent daily updates with photos and videos, created a safe and loving environment, took Luna on multiple walks each day, and spoiled her with treats. Luna didn’t want to leave—which says everything. After a long search, I’m incredibly thankful to have found her, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again! If you're on the fence about choosing her, consider this your sign! 💛
Gabriela was wonderful!! She kept us informed & sent pictures which was very much appreciated! We missed our dog, Poppy, but felt more at ease with updates! She let us know if he was eating & how he was doing in the unfamiliar environment. She asked if it was ok if she could give him homemade chicken which he loved! Whatever unease Poppy may have felt initially quickly dissipated with her loving care of him!! She was also very sensitive to his possible reaction to fireworks over July 4 anticipating he may not react well. She made sure she provided a quiet and safe space for him. We highly recommend her and will ask for her again should the need arise! Wish we could give 5+ stars!!
This was my second time booking with Barbara, and she continues to be an outstanding dog sitter. She provided regular updates and made sure my dog had plenty of playtime and attention each day. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!
I’ve been trusting Faith with my dog for the past 5 years, and I truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Every time I drop my pup off, it feels like she’s going to her second home, tail wagging and all. The level of care, love, and attention Faith provides is incredible. I always know my dog is safe, happy, and well cared for, which gives me complete peace of mind. It’s clear she treats the dogs she watches like part of her own family. Highly recommend!
