Julie did a wonderful job looking after our cat, Felix. He was shy with her initially, which we expected. But he warmed up to her as she fed him and played with him. Julie provided great photos and videos, which went a long way to comfort us pet parents missing our baby!

Jillian was amazing with Tinkerbell! Tinkerbell loves her! I was away on an extended trip and was so happy to get consistent updates and pictures. Jillian was very communicative and responsive.

About: Hi! I'm Melissa! A little bit about me. Growing up, our family always had dogs and cats. Since the moment I was born, I was raised alongside dogs and cats and at one point in my childhood we had three large breed dogs and 2 cats at once, so fun and crazy! This always nurtured my deep appreciation for animals from an early age. One of our family dogs even had three litters of puppies during my teenage years, giving me hands on experience caring for dogs and puppies of all ages and sizes. Today, I have my own dog in my own family home, a 76 pound English Coonhound rescue from Arkansas. Despite his high energy levels, strength and tendency to pull on the leash, I handle him confidently and independently. I adopted him through Philly Rescue Angels Inc., where I am also an approved foster. Family and friends have relied on me for years from a young age to let out, walk, feed, and play with their dogs whether it be when they need help on short notice or go on an extended vacation. In addition to my experience with dogs, I’ve had cats throughout my life and have fostered them as well. One of my cats even needed daily insulin injections for diabetes and I always handled that myself. My background has given me a well rounded understanding of animal care, and I take pride in my ability to provide attentive, compassionate, and responsible care for all of your pets! Since I am a nurse, I also understand most medical conditions and medication administration and precautions for pets as well, they're more similar to us than we realize! I am a registered nurse whom only works 3 days per week. I am quite flexible in my schedule and can move around my days easily if requested! I have a fenced in yard. I have a friendly dog to play with your pup! And an extra large crate if you need your pet crated at all. Pets are allowed on furniture in my house as well!

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.

About: I have had dogs all my life from the time I was small with my parents to now as a grandmother myself. I have always had 2-3 dogs as I can't seem to say no to a dog that needs a good home. I have experience in all sizes from small to Great Danes (I have had two). I would take care of your dog and love him/her as my own. I also have experience with pet safety as a volunteer for Red Paw animal group.

Amber traveled to check in on our feline babies and it was much appreciated! We had to go out of town on pretty short notice for an ailing family member and it was great getting updates during each visit to know our family at home was safe.

About: I'm a School Counselor with 20+ years experience taking care of others, including my own children, and 30+ years taking care of my own pets. While people are my 'jam', animals are my HEART. I've spent summers grooming dogs and have very few regrets in life - except not pursuing becoming a vet. My life took me in another direction...ANY chance I get I spend it with animals, usually dogs. I walk my neighborhood daily, and would say at least 20% of the time I'm finding a stray dog and returning it to its rightful owner. I can help out with medication administration, nail clipping, etc...and just LOVE spending time cuddling/walking/feeding/taking care of pets, especially dogs. I've trained all of my own pets, including crate training. Pets are where it's AT - now take me to yours and you won't be disappointed! Summers are wide open for me. During the school year, I can be available after 3:30pm daily and up until 7:30pm for drop ins. I’m home most weekends with the occasional soccer game or track meet obligation for my son. I prefer to plan in advance to best meet your pet(s) needs - at least a few days. I have a fenced in yard but am happy to walk your pet. I provided daily oral medication administration for my own 16 year old dog, groomed her, clipped her nails and provided an enormous amount of love and support for her. She was my children's heart. I've owned 4 dogs and 6 cats in my lifetime and enjoyed every single minute of it. In your home, I will care for your babies exactly as I would my own - with care, love and compassion. I will follow any instructions you have and will be happy to help in any other way possible with your pet.

We asked Michael to step in when our sitter became ill. Not only did he accept the job at the last minute, he also came back later in the day when our appt. ran overtime. We are very grateful for his assistance with our new puppy.

About: Hello pet parents! I'm Danni and I absolutely love everything about dogs. They're so cute, sweet and playful! I've had a dog all my life until recently (apartment restrictions) and they have been various sizes and breeds. I have also been a dog walker and sitter for a company that gave me experience handling and interacting with shelter and elderly dogs; I also have experience giving oral tablet medication at specified times. I understand that not every dog has come from a happy home and I will put an effort into earning their trust (I've done so with two shelter dogs with severe anxiety and I love them) because I know that it will mean so much in the long run. Other than long walks on sunny days, I love playing with your pup's favorite toy and fetch is my favorite game. I can't wait to meet your furry friend!

Miranda did a great job watching over my two cats, Ninja and Scraps while I was away on vacation. I definitely would recommend her and will be using her again in the future! She left great notes and made me feel at ease while I was away. 😁 Thank you. This was the first time I have used Rover and it was a great experience. Miranda also help me understand how to use the app since I made some silly mistakes.

Rosabella was great! I received lots of pictures as part of my rover card each time she checked in on my cat, Roscoe. It was clear from the start that Roscoe was comfortable with her (both from our meet and greet prior to her check ins and in the pictures throughout her time with him). I had no doubt that he was well taken care of while I was away, which is major considering I am a worried cat parent and often need reassurance while away from my cat.

Amber’s commitment to caring for my dogs cannot be overstated. Very few people in her position would have left the comfort of their homes to come out and take care of my dogs. She worked not only with me, but also with my sister, to care for four dogs in very harsh and potentially dangerous conditions due to the weather. Despite my unique situation due to a family emergency, she was incredibly flexible with rescheduling and accommodating adjustments when needed. She was responsive to my concerns throughout her care and even got back to me well outside of what I would consider normal business hours, especially since I was unable to respond during the day. Mind you this was on fairly short notice as well. I cannot recommend Amber enough.

Andrew was phenomenal! We used him to put our senior dog out 3 times a day while we were on vacation. He was caring, punctual, and great with updating me on how our dog was! My dog was also very comfortable with Andrew and had no problems eating or doing his business while we were away! He made sure our dog was very well taken care of! Definitely suggest Andrew if you want your mind at ease while leaving your animal when you go away!
