“Amy took very good care of our kitten, played a lot with him and made sure he was happy. She communicates a lot, which was reassuring for us. We highly recommend her and will be happy to work with her next time we'll have to leave town.”
“Shelby took great care of my two kitties, administered medication, and provided great reports and photos. Look forward to having her take care of them again!”
“Sean is always great with our cats. They get excited when we pull out our suitcase, knowing Sean will be around a few days instead. Always attentive and great with updates, and makes it easier to be away from our boys.”
“Danielle was great! Oscar and Syd seemed were well taken care of and comfortable while I was gone. She was very attentive and great with communication/ updates. Would definitely book again :)”
“Trederica was wonderful! Kept me updated with pictures every visit & accommodated all my needs when it came to my fur baby, would absolutely book her again.”
“Julia is great! Spike needed meds the whole time and they were on it even picking up the meds from the vet. Pyro also had a flare up and needed his meds as well. Julia communicated well and kept the kitties in good health”
“Emily took such great care of my cat. He had a potential health scare while I was away and was showing a lot of anxiety. Emily handled the unexpected issues so well and communicated everything with a lot of detail to help me understand the situation, including doing a video call. I would definitely recommend her for taking care of your pet!”
“Stormy is the best! Super gracious, responsible, unflappable, kind and our pets love when Stormy sits for them. Did I mention…unflappable?! Woof-woof, meow-meow! Definitely a Rover gem!”
“We had a great experience with Dana! He is friendly and approachable. I appreciated the photos and daily updates, which always included a fun story. Our cat is shy, and he felt very comfortable around Dana. We will book him again!”
“I would definitely use Marketa again! My kitties loved having her stop by - even my shy girl, who I thought would hide. Great communication & kind person. A+.”

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.
“This was our fourth time booking Kendra to take care of our two kitties. Like always, very attentive and patient. Both of our cats love her, even the shyest one!”
Germantown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily has sat for us a number of times and she is the best rover we've had! She is very responsible and thinks not just about feeding & scooping litter but thinks ahead to what kind of symptoms to watch out for after a procedure or where the cat carrier would be in case of emergency. She goes above & beyond the expectations of a regular sitter & is very communicative.
My kitties loved Tina! She kept me updated with photos and was easy to communicate with before during and after the booking. We would 100% recommend her as a sitter and look forward to booking again. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was caring for the kitties.
Nava took great care of our cats for a long weekend and also came for an initial visit where she took a lot of notes and made sure she had all the information she needed. When we got home our cats were happy and healthy, we’ll definitely be hiring her in the future!
Isabel is a wonderful pet sitter and we always feel we can rely on them and trust them that they will take the best care of our cat. They are a great communicator and always provide detailed visit updates. Looking forward to reaching out to them again in the future!
Julia is an outstanding cat sitter. I was traveling overseas for 10 days and felt completely comfortable with the care and attention she provided to my cat. Prior to my travel, Julie proactively scheduled a meet & greet, since it had been some time since her last cat sitting session with my cat. She engaged with my cat in a way that kept her from not feelin abandoned during my vacation. Upon my return, the litter box was clean and my cat's feeding and water area was spotless. I would unconditionally recommend Julia C. as reliable, trusted cat sitter.
Deeann showed up promptly for our initial meet-and-greet, showed a great deal of respect for our home and cats, asked excellent and on-point questions and took notes for the care of our cats. She communicated promptly, and is very nice. She showed up right on time for our first scheduled visit, only to discover I had left the wrong key! She worked wit me to try to find a solution but none was forthcoming. Unfortunately I had to cut my trip short and return. I have every confidence she would would have been great and would recommend her; and, when I need a sitter in the future, I'll reach out to her first.
This was our first time using Rover, and Amy was great with drop in visits for our cats! I knew we could trust her from the start, as she is a clear animal lover. She is very responsive and communicative. She came around the same time each day, and the cats loved her. Will definitely book her again!
