About: Hello, I’m Kay, a veterinary technician with 8 years of experience offering professional in-home drop-in care. With nearly a decade in veterinary medicine, I bring both compassion and clinical expertise to every visit. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. Over the past 8 years, I have gained extensive experience administering oral, topical, and injectable medications, as well as supporting pets with chronic conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, and arthritis. Beyond medical care, I closely monitor for changes in appetite, hydration, behavior, or mobility—subtle details that can be especially important for pets with ongoing health needs. During drop-in visits, I can provide:     •    Feeding and fresh water refills     •    Litter box cleaning or basic waste removal     •    Medication administration (oral, topical, injectable)     •    Chronic condition support and monitoring     •    General wellness checks (hydration, appetite, comfort level)     •    Visit reports with notes and photos for your reassurance In addition, I am trained to recognize early signs of distress and respond appropriately in urgent situations. If an emergency arises, I can provide immediate first aid and ensure your pet receives prompt veterinary attention. Every animal I care for is treated with the same respect and attention I would give my own. Whether your pet is a healthy, playful companion or one who requires a bit of extra medical support, you can trust that I’ll bring reliability, knowledge, and compassion to every visit. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I’m able to provide consistent, reliable visits throughout the week. I build my schedule around my clients’ needs, making sure every pet gets attention, medication, and care exactly when they need it. I provide attentive, personalized care in your pet’s familiar environment. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter box or waste cleanup, play and enrichment, medication administration, and monitoring for any changes in health or behavior. I treat every pet with the same compassion and professionalism I would my own, and I provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

I am a helicopter dog mom so Sean is the only one I will let watch over our baby girl if we can’t get home on time! We live on 25 acres with active wildlife, open spaces, and wandering hikers so it takes a very special person to be able to handle all of this and keep an eye on our girl’s safety simultaneously. He has a calm demeanor and he is extremely knowledgeable. He eased my worries and concerns. He is kind and meets my high expectations of who I want interacting with my dog. Highly recommend if you’re as picky as I am about who spends time with our girl!

I had Katherine walk my dog for 2 days just to see how it would go and everything went great. She was on time, kept me updated with pictures throughout the walk and never had any issues with my dog. I’d recommend her to anyone else and I’ll definitely be using her for future walks.

About: As a devoted cat mom of two, I have a lifelong passion for animal care. I regularly pet-sit for friends, providing reliable house sitting, daily walks, and enrichment activities to keep their pups engaged. Having grown up in a multi-pet household, ranging from a high-energy dog to a clever cat and a parrot, I am comfortable with a wide variety of personalities and needs. I’m looking forward to expanding my services and treating your pets like family. I work at a school in Northwest Philly from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, so I'm available on weekday nights and all day on the weekends. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to provide a seamless transition so the animals feel secure and the home remains in excellent condition. I strictly follow established feeding schedules and ensure fresh water is always available. I am diligent about following any specific dietary instructions or medication needs.I provide structured walks and active play sessions. Whether it’s playing fetch or using interactive toys, I make sure the pets get the physical and mental stimulation they need to stay happy while their owners are away.Beyond pet care, I am happy to help with light household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail, and ensuring all pet areas are kept clean and tidy.

About: Hello! My name is Ryan and I grew up on a farm training therapy dogs. I'm comfortable and flexible with dog walking and over night visits. I'm available early mornings before I make the coffee at Wawa and all afternoons and evenings. Sundays are typically my day off, but I can be flexible. I have a one bedroom with my partner in Germantown which isn't far from from my favorite hiking spots. I prefer to bathe dogs when they arrive for a stay.

About: I've always loved animals and felt that I was adept a befriending and communicating with them. If one begs for my attention, 9 times out of 10, they got it. I've been blessed to raise a 2 labradoodles, one of which I've had since he was only a few months old. Handfuls that they are, I wouldn't trade them for anything. My dogs are mid sized, but I love all dogs, big and small. Admittedly, there was a time where I thought I lacked the charm for cats, but some friends educated me. I now have a broader understanding that they can be just as playful and cuddly as dogs, but typically more selective. Animals, like people, are all different with different personalities. I believe understanding that is essential in interacting with & raising them.

This was our first time using Rover. I am so happy with Yulia & Kevin’s dog walking service. They were so flexible when I requested a time change when my plans had a little barrier. They asked alot of questions prior to my visit which was great so they can learn my pups personality! I loved how they send us a detailed report with videos and pictures. I look forward to this lovely services again!

I’m so happy that I found Kendra! She’s very reliable, loving to my pup, and detailed at taking notes on Teddy’s likes and dislikes, training cues, and other habits. Teddy is always skeptical of new people but he adores her. She also sends me pictures and a detailed report after their walks, and is prompt at responding at my requests. I feel good knowing my pup is in great hands when I’m not around. I highly recommend Kendra!

About: **note: I am unable to stay overnight at your residence. Hello!!! My name is Maria and I love caring for pets in and around my community in Philadelphia. I attached photos of reviews from my Wag profile. When I lived in Boston I was a trusted dog walker via wag where I did recurring walks and gained my own clients from 2019-2021. I did pet sitting, overnight care, and dog walking, and I miss my recurring pups so much! I am so excited to get back into taking care of animals here in the Philly area! My cats are equivalent to human children to me, so I will treat your pets the same! My daughter Cherry (feline daughter) is very shy so I am familiar with caring for animals who may be testy or nervous. I currently work obscure hours which means I’m always available during normal human hours! My day job is from 1:30pm-midnight, 4 days a week. I work in television, it’s awesome, so I’m available early-ish during the day! I have a car so I can get around to your babies efficiently and I don’t mind animals in my car in case of emergency. However an owner wants me to care for their pet, I do it. I closely follow rules, respect boundaries, and take criticism. I am so open and I love to be accountable so that you’ll trust me with your pet. I am so protective of my cats and will treat your pets the same. Pets are our lifeline and will be treated as such!
