About: I'm currently a grad student with a flexible schedule, and honestly, time outdoors with a dog is my favorite way to recharge and get away from the screen. A good walk or an afternoon of play doesn't feel like a chore to me — it's the part of my day I look forward to. That means your dog gets someone with the energy and genuine enthusiasm to keep up with them, not just clock in and out. I grew up with a golden retriever and was the one taking care of him solo whenever my parents traveled for work, so I've been the trusted "person in charge" since I was a kid. I offer dog walking, doggy day care, and drop-in visits & house sitting, and I'm comfortable with everyone from high-energy pups to laid-back loungers. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some company, or a full day of play, I'll treat them like my own. Can't wait to meet you both! As a grad student with a flexible, largely home-based schedule, I can give your pet real attention and keep to their routine. Through the summer I'm generally free all day, every day, except Sunday mornings. Because I'm home and around for most of the day, I can stick to your pet's normal routine — feedings, walks, meds, and play at the times they're used to — and send you updates and photos so you always know how they're doing. If you have a specific schedule you'd like me to follow, just let me know and I'll build my day around it. Doggy day care: I'm in a comfortable 750 sq ft one-bedroom apartment with easy access to Rittenhouse Square, so your dog gets a cozy home base plus plenty of nearby green space for walks, play, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. They'll have my attention, a steady routine, and regular trips outside rather than being left to lounge alone. Dog drop-in visits: I like to be thorough so your dog's day feels exactly like it does when you're home. Before your first visit, I'll ask where to find the spare leash, poop bags, water, and treats, and I'll want to know your usual walking route and routine. The more detail you can share, the better — I'd genuinely rather have too many instructions than too few, so your pup gets the same care and rhythm they're used to. Cat drop-in visits: For cats, I pay close attention to the details that keep them comfortable while you're away. I'll ask where the litter box is, whether it needs refilling, and exactly how you'd like it cleaned, plus where to find food, water, and treats. I also like to know their favorite toy and how they usually like to play or spend their day, so I can match their normal routine rather than disrupt it. Clear instructions are always welcome — I'd rather follow your way of doing things to the letter.

“Barthalomew was super flexible and helpful with my dog Pumpkin. She had a great time with him and his dog. He was also responsive and easy to coordinate with. Will be using his services again”

“Aubrey is the bomb.com Dobby, who hates his carrier, actually jumps in every morning thinking he’s going to visit Aubrey and his puppy pals💕”

“I can’t thank Tim enough for being such a lifesaver and amazing sitter! I had a very last minute need for a sitter over the July 4th weekend while I was working and he stepped up in the biggest way. He walked Coco multiple times a day and gave the most adorable summaries of their day together. Coco sprinted to him immediately after only one day and it was obvious she had a great time despite the terrible 100 degree weather that weekend. I can’t thank him enough and can’t wait for him to sit coco again!”

“Julianna is so sweet! She lives my Paulie and I adore seeing Cooper and Betty Boop and meeting the other pups Juliana is caring for! The comfort of having Juliana care my pup the way she cares for her own is awesome!!”

“Alex was great with Beluga! Super flexible, took plenty of pictures, it's evident that on a scorching hot day, Alex was able to provide Beluga with plenty of relaxing space to hang out and cool down :)”

“Nicole saved us when my sitter cancelled last minute. Meeko and Eevee were totally comfortable with her and she sent pictures as they settled in and on their walk. They had a great time. We would definitely pick her next time we are local!”

“Devon was amazing! She looked after our highly anxious dog for a full day and made sure she felt comfortable and had a great time. Would definitely book again!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years and have always had a deep love and respect for pets. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, an adult dog, or a senior pet that needs extra patience and gentle care, I provide dependable, attentive care as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is in caring and trustworthy hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, medication, potty breaks, or simply companionship. I’m able to adjust to each pet’s routine and provide attentive, reliable care whenever they need it, giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before providing care. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they have fresh water, are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, and are always supervised in a safe environment. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“My doggo Dexter and I love Sarah! Since the first day, she has gone above and beyond. Dexter is always excited to go to her house and have fun!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life, starting with my dad's dog when I was a child. As soon as I turned 18, I adopted my first dog, Leah, and have since added two more pups to my family, Bailey and Banzai. my dogs have played a significant role in my life with regards to my mental health and I will always be grateful for it. Because of my personal experience, I hold every pup close to my heart. I will make sure your pups are always taken care of and happy. They will always be treated like I treat my own babies 🐶 ‼️NEW TO ROVER? Use code SABINT28397 For 20$ towards your first booking‼️ As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care and playtime for your fur babies throughout the day, every day. Your pet will receive my undivided love and attention while under my care. I believe in keeping pet owners informed during their absence by providing frequent picture and video updates. As each pet has its own unique needs and preferences, I always make a point to ask for specific instructions from pet owners regarding their care.

About: I’ve owned and cared for cats, dogs, fish, rodents and reptiles for more than 45 years. I would be happy to share the love with your furry (or otherwise) family members too. I currently have a sheepadoodle that loves other dogs and people, so he would love to have a playmate to come and take walks and spend time with us. I currently work from home so I have plenty of freedom to spoil all the pets in my care. I do look after my 3 year old grandson sometimes so getting along with children would be an important quality if your pet should come to stay with me. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly sheepadoodle that gets along with both dogs and cats. We love to go on walks too.

“Tim came highly recommended, and now I know why! He was so understanding and patient as I navigated having him care for my senior dog, and he was clearly attentive to her. I will be back!”

“Lauren took good care of my dog Maple. Maple was a bit anxious but Lauren made her feel at home. By the end of the stay, Maple seemed very happy. I’d definitely recommend Lauren and I will be sure to book again.”
