Pet Sitting in Lansdowne

“Melissa was great! We needed someone to let our golden retriever out during the day while at work. Melissa showed up exactly when we scheduled her to, and sent lots pictures and videos which showed how happy our dog was to see her. She communicated very well during the visit and made sure she took care of everything we needed. We're definitely already looking to book her again for the next time we need dog care!”

“Heather is so kind and empathetic. She loves animals and she gave French Fry and Ice Cream lots of personalized attention and care. Heather is also extremely reliable and thorough and even went the extra mile for us, checking mail and changing the blinds so the cats could birdwatch and so our house didn’t come across as vacant. Thank you so much, Heather!”

About: Of course I love animals, but what matters more to me is noticing who your pet actually is. Are they the kind of dog who needs to sniff the same corner for five minutes before moving on? Are they a little shy at first and pretending not to care? Do they get excited easily and need someone calm around them? Are they a cat who wants company, but absolutely not too much company? I really enjoy figuring out those little things. I’m gentle, patient, and very respectful of each pet’s routine. I don’t believe in rushing them or treating every animal the same. Some pets need play and attention, some need slow walks and quiet reassurance, and some just need someone kind nearby so the house does not feel empty. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that still feels familiar to them. I’m also very careful with instructions. Feeding routines, medications, walk preferences, favorite toys, things that scare them, how they like to be greeted, whether they are allowed on the couch. I want to know all of it. I know these details are not “extra.” They are usually the things that make a pet feel secure. I’ll also send updates and photos, not just to say everything is fine, but so you can actually feel connected to them while you are away. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, may also help me sometimes, and you may see her in some of my photos. She has had pets since childhood and fostered animals for several years, so she is very used to different personalities, nervous pets, affectionate pets, and animals who need a little extra patience. She is calm, loving, and very responsible, and I trust her completely with animals. Between the two of us, your pet will be cared for by people who genuinely like being around animals, but who also understand that trust matters. I’ll treat your pet with warmth, patience, and care, and I’ll treat your home and instructions with respect. This year, much of my work is remote, which gives me real flexibility in my schedule. That means I’m able to spend unrushed, attentive time with pets, not just quick check-ins, but actual companionship, care, and presence. I can shape my day around walks, visits, feeding times, play, and quiet company, depending on what each pet needs. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, who is included in the pictures, also helps me out with my Rover schedules. My home is my cat Lilo’s safe little kingdom, so I can’t host other pets here. But I’m very happy to come to your home, meet outside for walks, or figure out a setup that feels easy and comfortable for you and your pet.

About: As the mother of a 3 year old neutered Dalmatian and as a Veterinary Technician I come with the knowledge of wellness and emergency care as well as the exercise needs of your baby! You have a puppy or kitten that wants to play all day long ? No problem! I can teach him/her some basic training/tricks such as sit, stay, and the command “drop it” for safety reasons! (It can be both English and Spanish since I’m fluent on both languages!). You have a senior dog/cat that prefers to cuddle and sleep all day? We can do that as well! I am flexible regardless of age and breed! I can administer medication based on your preference and needs of your pet as well as feed and provide water as needed! My goal is to help your pet feel loved and at peace while you as the owner, get to have peace of mind with who your pet is with! *I provide a smoke, alcohol, and drug free home as well as a play mate if necessary for your dog!* *If your dog or cat is not dog friendly that’s no problem for boarding at my home! Both my dog and your pet can be separated upon request!* I have an open schedule throughout the week based on your needs as a client and the needs of your pet regardless of the time in the day! I provide a peaceful and quiet environment that fits perfect for an anxious pet but also a very nearby dog park within my apartment complex where your dog can run around for as long as they’ll like! I’m flexible for your needs and requests!

“Tamikia did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were away. She came at the scheduled time and did all that was asked of her and more. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our cat in her care. We enjoyed receiving the daily updates and photos while we were away. We would definitely hire her again!”

“I loved everything about my booking with Barb. From the meet and greet to the last scheduled visit she had with my kitten, everything went smoothly and professionally. Barb is an amazing and caring sitter. Please consider her service if you ever need a cat sitter!”

Morgan H.

“Kaylee was great with our pup, he was slow to come out of his shell with a new person in the house but she moved at his pace and got him out and moving no problem!”

Gabe C.

“Very flexible and took great care of my kitties! Even washed their food containers and picked up our mail! Comes highly recommended from me, Leeloo, and Nova!”

Kiara P.

“Brenna offered great care to our two cats during the hottest week of the year thus far, communicating in real time during check ins to help our finicky eat and be comfortable. Thank you, Brenna!”

Sean Z.

“I'd 100% book Angelica again! She did a great job looking after my bunnies, and went above and beyond with tidying up after a week of visits. She was on top of communication at all times. Yay Angelica!”

Evelyn L.

“Evelyn is great about following instructions and checking in. My cat's water fountain broke on the last day and she was great at asking me what to do. She's the type of person I want watching my kitty girl.”

Kate D.

“Absolutely incredible with my dogs! Jacqueline kept us up to date on everything to do with our puppies with adorable pictures and videos. I came back home to find my house cleaner than I left it. she even folded up my blankets on the couch! Don’t hesitate and book her, you won’t be disappointed.”

Woodbine F.

“Sarah took great care of our kitties while we were away, even cleaning up a small hairball/mess they had made! Her pictures were great and both kitties seemed to really like her!”

Alex C.

“Rozz is very reliable and communicates really well. She always sends updates and photos/videos! Highly recommended booking Rozz for all your pet-sitting needs!”

Bianca B.

“This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!”

Paula M.

“Jada is excellent. Quick and painless with watching my beloved babies. Toward the end of the visit my VERY standoffish girl that usually stays away from people offered some cuddles which was pretty much a stamp of approval. Attentive, quick, and made sure to come on time to feed my babies. Will be booking again.”

Manda D.

“Kia was absolutely wonderful in caring for my cat during her drop-in visits! My cat has special feeding needs and requires medication, and Kia handled everything with care, patience, and professionalism. She followed the instructions perfectly, kept me updated with messages and photos, and made sure my cat felt comfortable and loved while I was away. It gave me great peace of mind knowing she was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Kia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, compassionate pet sitter!”

Theda P.

“It was our first time leaving, Daphne, our cat alone for a weekend and we were apprehensive in leaving her with a sitter. Patricia took the time to come to our house and meet Daphne. When it came time to leave for our trip Patricia made sure to send us a whole bunch of pictures of her and Daphne playing and having a good time. Patricia made our first experience using Rover effortless and made us feel comfortable while we enjoyed our weekend. We will be sure to check if Patricia is available next time we book a trip.”

About: I know what it’s like to worry about your fur babies being away from you for an extended period of time, which is why I strive to provide top-notch service, which includes: feeding and medication per the pet parent’s instructions, plenty of walks, play time, lots of cuddles (if they’re okay with that!) with photo updates throughout it all. As an animal shelter volunteer, I especially have experience with cats, including kittens as young as 2 weeks old. Since I have recently moved to Philadelphia my availability is now completely open, which works out perfectly for scheduling time with fur babies! Any scheduling discrepancies will be communicated right away. My approach to pet care is centered on safety and maintaining a stress-free routine. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a 'safety-first' environment by double checking locks and removing potential hazards.

“Paz did a great job. She pays very close attention to detail, even going so far as to take lots of notes during our meet and greet. My dog is reactive so needs special care around other dogs. Paz followed my directions and safely navigated around the problems. She was also willing to take care of my dog despite having a sudden bout of diarrhea that started the day before her visit. Lots of pictures and excellent communication.”
