“Matt has been great to work with. Very accommodating and responsive. He has handled both our big dogs so well- even dealing with a very suspicious Rottweiler like a champ.”
“Annabelle did a great job with Grayson after I booked last minute. Took plenty of pictures each day and had good communication. Grayson is a pretty easy going cat, but he hates being alone and he definitely seemed happy with her dropping in to check on him everyday. Would happily book again when I need a sitter!”
“Milena took great care of our cat while we were away. He looked forward to her daily visits. She was even kind enough to water my flowers during the hot weather. We look forward to booking her again.”
“Amanda did an amazing job! Naturally we were nervous about someone new handling our puppy, but she made the process very easy and definitely made us feel comfortable. She kept us informed of all that was happening so we had nothing to worry about. 100% recommend to anyone looking for someone to watch their pet.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a kid, and I have experience with taking care of many different breeds, young and old. I love animals and will do everything I can to make yours comfortable and happy. Work is currently slow, so I have the time to give your pets all the attention they need. I am available anytime throughout the week and most weekends. I have two friendly dogs that would love to keep yours company. I do not have a fenced yard, but walk them on my private lane often, and take them to the dog park. My pets get fed twice a day, but I can feed yours as often as you’d like - they also have some treat throughout the day.
“Leilani & Jessie M. are both very easy to reach out and will help you with taking care of your pets. They both went above and beyond with their service. Highly recommended.”
About: I own 2 huskies. I've volunteered with a dog rescue for 8 years fostering all types of dogs... 46 of them in fact. My husband and I have firefighter/EMT schedules so we're often home during the day, and handle emergencies well. We have an irregular schedule in my house. You will have to check my calendar for availability. We are often home during the week and daytime. My care for my dogs and foster dogs depend on the dog. My female dog is a princess who sleeps on the couch, but my male needs to be kenneled to keep out of trouble. We have a dog door to allow our dogs freedom to go in and out as they please.
“Jenn is a awesome sitter. We have a reactive German Shepherd mix rescue and her willingness to watch our dogs enabled my husband and myself the ability to attend a loved one's memorial service . We are looking forward to Jenn sitting for us again!”
About: I have had all sorts of pets since I was a child. I’ve had large and small dogs, cats, rodents, amphibians, and lizards, I even had a pot belly pig, sheep & duck as a child. I even volunteered at a local vet when I was a teenager and gained a lot of hands on experience. I’m a stay at home and I homeschool my two teenage daughters. They absolutely adore animals as well. I feel this will allow me to spend a lot of one on one time with your pet. Your fur baby will be well cared for and interacted with while they’re here! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby to run! I also have room in my house if they need to be crated at any time.
About: I have had dogs for the past 30 years. I am an approved foster home for a pug rescue. I have rescued several dogs! The last two years, I have been a dog walker! The dog I recently rescued was a client I walked whose mom was disabled. She needed more care than her mom could give her. We bonded from the first walk, and I knew I could be her forever home! I have a blind/deaf pug as well. I do a lot of housesitting and dogsitting it’s always a joy! My home is on an acre. I have my own business out of my home, and so I am home all day and your pet will not be left alone! I am home all day running my health coach business. Pet care will keep me busy and your animal happy..and the resident dogs will love having playmates! I do have a portion of my yard fenced in so the dogs have lots of room to run and play and be dogs. Dogs are rarely crated unless they are used to that and the owner request that they have time in their crate. I am home the majority of the time. I work from home on a part-time basis so I am with the dogs the majority of the time. When the dogs come to my home, it is like they are on their own little vacation. They have a good time playing with the other dogs and go home tired.
“Rachel was so loving and patient with my two rescue dogs! She followed our instructions for our pups’ individual needs and even spent time cuddling with them during her drop in visits. She was super responsive and willing to be flexible with help! Would definitely book again!”
“Danielle exceeded our expectations when she stepped in to do drop in visits for our two cats in a last minute urgent situation. She took excellent care of our fur babies and we will be sure to book her again in the future.”
About: Hi! My name is Lizzie. I absolutely adore all animals! I have had pets since I was born. I've taken care of every size of dog, from German Shepherds to yorkies. Neighbors have consistently placed their pets in my care during vacations and trips. I take great care to follow all instructions given. I want to make your fur babies as comfortable and happy as possible! I'm currently a full time biology student at Villanova. I am available most often after 3pm on weekdays, and anytime on Saturdays and Sundays to hang out with your pets.I love to go on walks outside, so taking your furry friend with me is just an added bonus :) Because I am a student in a dorm room, I cannot host pets in my home unfortunately. But I am more than willing to come to you!
About: I can’t remember a time that great family experiences didn’t involve a dog. We travel with our dogs, walk with our dogs, eat and play with our dogs. I have a senior Chiweenie because he is an older guy. We’ve had to change how we do things. Walks are shorter, but since he loves him so much, they are paramount. We have to make sure that he gets his medications three times a day. Petey now has specific eating requirements. This is all done so that he doesn’t have seizures and it keeps his arthritis from bothering him too much. I regularly care for my daughter’s three Cavaliers when they travel. Once, between all of our family pets I watched six dogs, two puppies, three chickens, and a bunny. I loved every minute of it! If you hire me, I will make sure that I care for your dogs like they are my own. Once you outline their daily needs, I will follow it to the letter. Your pets schedule will be the structure of my day. Everything else I do will be fit around it. If I have something that will interfere with that I will not accept the job. I will watch your pets in your home that as closely resembles their schedule when you are home. Leaving your pets can be hard are you and them. I find the less interference in how they usually live is the best.

When our youngest, most energetic dog had to be on medical crate rest for 6 months they were so patient and understanding of his needs and him having to remain calm when all he wanted to do was run around and play. I trust them both to take care of our fur babies and provide them with the highest level of care and love!”

Elizabeth D.
“Elizabeth is our daughter and has grown up with dogs, literally since her life began. We have had a German shepherd since her birth and she absolutely loves dogs. When our VERY WELL BEHAVED german shepherd died February of 2020 we decided to try a new breed. (that is not nearly as well behaved) And she adapted accordingly and is also excellent with our very naughty Soft coated Wheaton terrier. I know she’s our daughter BUT she loves dogs and is GREAT with them & I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of dog care either for a well behaved or somewhat more challenging dog!”
Lisa F.
“Lisa has watched my animals many times over the years and has been extremely kind to them. Our pets love her! Lisa has also been very reliable and flexible as far as scheduling goes. We trust her with our pets every year when we go on vacation.”
Jennifer L.
“Amazing communication and great care - looked after our maniac cat for two weeks. One of the best we have hired through Rover. Highly recommend!!!”
