“Jillian was amazing with Tinkerbell! Tinkerbell loves her! I was away on an extended trip and was so happy to get consistent updates and pictures. Jillian was very communicative and responsive.”

“Marian is caring, trust worthy and clearly a dog lover! Nittany loved her from the start. She walked her with each visit and sent us the map to see where she walked her. Loved the pictures too- kept us at ease seeing that she was in good hands! Thank you!”

“Jeffrey was kind and responsible with my dog Oso. I also appreciate his patience and understanding when there was an issue with getting into my home for the visit (I accidentally had forgotten to replace the batteries in my garage door opener so had to direct him where to find a spare key). Thank you!!”

“Danielle is amazing! Super communicative and helpful. She gives useful tips and recommendations, and will go above and beyond too. Would book her again and again (and we have).”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10! I’ve always had 3-4 pets at a time so I understand the high/low maintenance, the picky eaters, and the ones that need medical assistance. I personally have dogs that have medical issues and have to make sure their needs are met constantly. I’ve worked on a farm so I have great experience with all types of animals. Neighbors and friends rely on me #1 to walk, play, feed, and take care of their pets. I currently work part time. I will have plenty of time during the day to play, feed, walk your pups! I’m an early bird so if you’re looking for someone early in the mornings, I’m your girl! I will follow whatever your protocol is for your pets! I want them to feel as comfortable as possible with me. I look forward to meeting all of your furry friends!

About: Hi! My name is Samantha, and I have been caring for pets around my neighborhood for about two years. As a pet owner myself with two cats, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets. I have 2 years of hands on experience providing dedicated pet care through pet sitting for my neighbors and friends. My responsibilities have included caring for dogs, cats, and small animals of various breeds and temperaments. I follow detailed care instructions provided by each pet owner, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and special dietary needs. Pet care is a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I make sure pets are fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention every day. I do also work part time on certain days. When caring for pets, whether in my own home or a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I begin by gathering detailed information about each pet’s routine, dietary needs, medical history, and behavior. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to maintain consistency and reduce stress for the pet. In a client’s home, I respect their space by maintaining cleanliness and ensuring all areas accessed by the pet remain secure and organized. I monitor the pet closely, engage them in appropriate physical and mental activities, and provide companionship to ensure they feel safe and cared for. Whether at home or on-site, I am attentive, patient, and responsive to each animal’s unique needs, always aiming to create a nurturing and trustworthy environment.
About: Hi! I grew up with cats and dogs, and had small animals during college (much to my dorm RA's chagrin LOL) - a hamster, gerbil, snake, and a rat. Currently my daughter and I have four wonderful cats, including an orange female that keeps us on our toes 😁, and a Betta fish. With friends and family, I am surrounded by dogs - from Chihuahua to Greyhound - and I love them all! I often pet sit and walk a variety of pawsome pups 🐾 ❤️. I'm comfortable with any type of pet (feline, canine, reptile, bird, small mammals, etc.) and would be honored to care for yours. Let's face it, pets can be better than people, and they deserve to be treated with the unconditional love they show us!! 😊 I am self-employed, and have ultimate flexibility to care for your pets on your schedule, day or night! I am available for one-off arrangements, when you are traveling, or on-going regular care. I'm especially happy to spend as much time as needed with your fur babies, to ensure they are well-loved and enriched while you are away! In my own home, I can care for caged animals, such as small mammals, reptiles, birds, or fish. They would be kept in a closed room that is off limits to our cats. For your cats and dogs, I happy to come to your home and spend as much time as needed feeding, cleaning, playing, walking, etc. In addition, if the fit is right, I am happy to welcome your dog into my home during the day for doggie daycare.
“Antoinette was amazing with my cats! She was great at following the instructions given and communicating with me. She also provided pictures and videos which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“Alyssa was amazing. I can’t wait to recommend her to all my family and friends who live in Fox Chase. Alyssa cared about my dogs, if they were eating their food, and she even went above and beyond and watered my flowers! She won over my grumpy dog and we will absolutely be using her services again. Seriously, a good gem of a dog sitter in Fox Chase!”

“Shanelle was a wonderful sitter for my Bow 🐱. not only was it my first time hiring a sitter, it was my first time leaving Bow for a week so i was a bit nervous in the beginning. during our introductory chat, Shanelle assured me that Bow would be taken good care of and she stuck to her word. she was attentive and communicative throughout the week and sent the most adorable notes and photos of a satisfied Bow. i was able to be present and enjoy my vacation worry free. i would definitely book Shanelle again and recommend her care for your beloved animal conpanion!”

Elkins Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amanda was extremely conscientious and responsible taking care of my energetic dog while I was away! I could see how happy Oreo was to spend time with her with both walks and lots of cuddles from the great photos she took. Plus, Amanda really took the time pre-visit to make sure she understood Oreo's diet and personality. All round a great experience -- thank you!
I had the most lovely experience using Chelsea to take care of my senior girl! Chelsea is the sweetest and kindest Rover person I've ever used. She followed my lengthy instructions and took such great care of my Bella. No surprise she has a Star rating! I'll definitely be using her again!!
