About: I have had many of my neighbors have asked to take care of their pets in the past. I’ve been doing so since the 4th grade Before I moved from college, my dog that i’ve had for 6 years has been a significant part of my life. My family and I take my dog everyday including her in our daily routine I plan on adjusting methods toward each pet. some animals need different care, and I hope to make the pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 30 years. I currently have 7 rescue dogs who range in age from 3-16 and weigh 6-26 lbs. I’m also an active foster for the Burlington County Animal Alliance. I’ve fostered close to 30 dogs this past year alone. I currently work full time, but am home Fridays Saturday and Sundays. The days I’m home I will take excellent care of any babies I’m dog sitting. I have a spacious backyard with a secure 6-foot fence, perfect for safe playtime. My home is full of happy pups who love making new friends. I do have crates available if needed, but most dogs prefer snuggling in bed with me or relaxing on one of the many cozy dog beds throughout the house.

About: I’ve always been great with pets, especially dogs, and I genuinely enjoy being around them. I’ve owned and cared for a dog for 12 years which has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walks, exercise, routines, and daily care. As a student-athlete, I’ve developed strong traits like discipline, punctuality, responsibility, and hard work. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and gets the attention they deserve. I’m currently finishing my last semester of college online, which gives me a flexible schedule and strong availability for pet care. I’m actively looking for full-time or part-time work, but I’d love the opportunity to care for pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’m reliable when it comes to routines, communication, and giving pets the attention they need. I currently prefer caring for pets in their own home environment rather than bringing them into my home. I believe many pets are most comfortable staying in their normal routine and familiar surroundings. I’ll carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions if needed, and any care directions you provide. My goal is to keep your pet safe, comfortable, active, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have lived with both cats and dogs my whole life and have always loved being around animals. I have experience caring for pets for family members while they were on vacation, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they felt comfortable and cared for. I understand how important pets are to a family, and I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I am graduating college in December and most of my classes are online. I also work part-time, and my job is partially remote, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because of this flexibility, I am available most days and can adjust my availability to fit pet care needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings when needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every pet care situation. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, and routines to keep pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. I make sure doors are secure, water is always fresh, and pets are never left in unsafe situations. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and close attention to their individual needs.
“David was very thorough taking care of my kitties even when they were being super shy. His communication was greatly appreciated and left me with no worries while I was out of town. I would absolutely book David again!”

“Patrick did a great job taking care of Quincy. I had a few specific instructions, and he followed them to the letter. Quincy was in a good mood when I got home. I recommend Patrick and would hire him again.”

“This was the first time we did house visits for my two boys and Margret has been nothing but wonderful. She was always punctual and cared for my babies while I was away. She made sure to send pictures from every visit and my doggos loved playing / interacting with her. I would highly recommend Margret to care for y’all’s babies 🐾🐾 needs .”

“Shannon was very responsible and attentive to our two cats. She followed our instructions for their routine, regularly played with them and gave them treats. She even brought packages and mail into the house. It was great to have her pet sit and hope we can arrange with her again on our next trip.”

About: I have cared for my family dogs on numerous occasions. I have also been a go to pet sitter for people around me. I baby sit and have worked as a mentor helping people around me. I would be able to care for pets at any point in the week. The schedule is the only thing I need and would be able to care for pets at any time. I care and typically ask for schedules for the specific animal. I also keep in touch with owners on a day to day basis and give updates about their pets and how they are doing.

Mon-Wed for walking/ house checkins: 9:30am-2pm Thursday-Sat for walking/ house checkins: 9:30am-8pm If we develop an animal care relationship and additional times/dates outside of this window are needed, I will try my best to accommodate on a case-to-case basis.

I can help with feedings, playing, and crating if necessary. Please note, I am not experienced or comfortable with aggressive animals. For my safety, I would like to know if there are any people that I will be interacting with when picking animals up for walks or at-home visits. If you would like any more information about me for your own trust and safety please reach out with questions, and I will be happy to answer!
About: My goal is to provide the pest possible service for your family. I am just getting started with Rover and not so busy yet. I think some great reviews would help and that is good news for you because great reviews require providing great service. Seriously, I am a senior looking to supplement my income like all old guys but I truly love dogs. It may seem strange but I feel a connection and able to communicate. So how about a shot to give you some great service so I can great reviews and fill my calendar a bit. Often times the fewer words the better but below gives you a window into some personal pet experiences. Pets have been a part of my entire life. My first adolescent memory is of Jacque, a prissy French Poodle with an attitude that Mom would let me dress up complete with overcoat, booties and of course a French beret. Ginger was a large orange tabby cat that could have been Garfield's stunt double. My parents attempt at teaching me responsibility actually worked. Married in 1971 our life together started with Figaro, looked just like the cat from Pinocchio. All black with white paws very sneaky, overly curious and slightly narcissistic. Figora belonged to my wife and he made that very clear. Sabrina, a very shiny grey Siamese joined us when my sister went to school. Sabrina was very anti social and did not like anybody. House guests could spend an entire weekend and never see her. She tolerated us but Sabrina and Figora had shall we say, an understanding. Neither were ever outdoors or saw the light of day. With the family developed and 3 boys later came Thunder. He was a rescue Sheppard mix. He was very active, playful, mischievous and very funny. He was more than a handful and we still laugh and talk about things that he did. As he became an adult dog, by years not behavior for sure, friends in a rural area expressed how much they loved Thunder. We just could not break their hearts and allowed them to adopt Thunder. We visited often. After some time Briar came into the picture. My wife's girlfriend became ill and unable to care for a large majestic Bovier de Flanders. Her coat was amazing. Very heavy and thick. Kids on the street would ask if she was a bear. When someone rang the doorbell Briar would announce them and greet them in an extremely loud intimidating manor. The caller could have just opened the door and patted her end and should would just give love and affection. She was kind gentle and helpful to everyone. Except, if you were to approach my wife in an aggressive manor or touch her, you were taking your life in your own hands. She was never taught to protect her, but protect she did. Amazing breed characteristics and lots of stories. We learned she had a UTI and was her kidney. We prolonged her life as long as possible and realized the treatment and medication were selfish on our part and chose her comfort over our love for her. So hard. My most recent pet experience was Pike, a brindle pit bull, male and Roxy, female dachshund. We started to foster them temporarily while my son traveled for work and turned to an extended stay their last years. Roxy ruled the roost for sure and was always funny when you considered their statute let alone breed but she was boss. We called them the odd couple. I would take them with me to work often and Pike made sales calls with me. He was truly my road dog. We lost them both within a month. We lost them both just before pandemic, they were 16-17 best guess. My son was the one that literally rescued Pike while he was chained to a dumpster in Rittenhouse Square all day in the rain. With lots of patience and love from everyone close, I watched him transform from an otherwise unfriendly, aggressive, animal hating Pit Bull transform to the sweetest, gentlest, ready to please member of the family. I do not have any formal training training nor have done training professionally but I am up for the challenge. I know and understand the 7 basic commands, hand signals, concepts and have a tremendous amount of patience. There are a lifetime of story's how I was the only one that got along with the shop dog or the neighbors dog or a particular. Hope to meet you and your Pups soon, Rocci I am retired and available 9:00am to 9:00 pm right now I don't need much notice. I am hoping to develop relationships with dogs by providing outstanding service I have a French yard that houses all the dogs and cats and the other animals as well as an area in the garage where we keep all the toys
About: Hi! My name is Amanda and I’m a dependable animal lover with experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve had dogs and cats all my life, which has given me a strong understanding of animal care and behavior. I have experience with large breeds including German Shepherds and Huskies, chocolate labs and small breeds as well so I’m comfortable with energetic dogs and long walks. I understand how important pets are to a family and will treat your pet like my own while providing safe, loving, and reliable care.

I have a large fenced in yard perfect for catching some sun rays and getting the zombies out. I do have two dogs to keep your furry baby comfy. However if you would like them to be separated o can keep them separated on different floors in my home.
“Very reliable sitter! Whitney checked in on my dog at my house twice a day while I was away. She took good care of my dog and kept me informed with photos.”


About: I have had pets from a young age, including dogs, cats, fish and hamsters. I am currently the owner of two beautiful mixes named Luna and Lys! In addition to my own pets I have cared for friend’s and family’s dogs and cats numerous times. I know how special animals can be and look forward to caring for your special family members! Profile picture is myself and my girl Luna! I am an elementary special education teacher who is looking to make a little extra money on my summer break.

I can provide whatever length of walks is typical for your pet and can accommodate additional routines that are typical in your household. I am unable to bring pets into my home due to my own dogs.
About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other people’s pets I’ve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. I’m a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I can’t have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 22 and absolutely love what I do. As a teacher, I’m used to being responsible, patient, and dependable—qualities that help pet parents feel confident leaving their furry family members in my care. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐶❤️ Dogs fit easily into my daily life because caring for them is something I truly enjoy. As a teacher, I have a routine and a strong sense of responsibility, which helps me stay consistent with walks, feeding, playtime, and attention. Spending time with dogs is one of my favorite ways to relax, and I love making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. 🐶 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s routine as closely as possible so the animals feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and that their water is always fresh. I also keep the home tidy, monitor the pet’s behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy, and send updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

Nicole is absolutely fantastic. As a first time dog owner, I was really nervous leaving my puppy for the first time and Nicole totally put my mind at ease right away - with texted updates and photos in addition to the very detailed reports! I felt so much better immediately! Her level of communication daily is such a relief to me and makes me so happy to see Penny having fun with her! She goes above and beyond everyday - keeping me posted when Penny is sick, taking our trash out, adding extra food when I forget. I truly can’t imagine what we would do without her and am so grateful that Penny is in the best hands when we are at work!! I recommend Nicole so highly!

This was the first time we did house visits for my two boys and Margret has been nothing but wonderful. She was always punctual and cared for my babies while I was away. She made sure to send pictures from every visit and my doggos loved playing / interacting with her. I would highly recommend Margret to care for y’all’s babies 🐾🐾 needs .

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

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.
