“Alex is the best! We truly appreciated the photos and updates and felt very secure with Alex’s confident and caring approach. Our home was left in pristine condition and our dogs were content and relaxed! Highly recommend Alex, especially if you have dogs who can be a little slow to warm up to new people.”
“Stefanie was amazing. She sent daily updates and was friendly and genuinely seemed to enjoy taking care of our dog. We will book her again, for sure, if she is available. Thanks Stefanie!”
“Amy was amazing with my dog! She was attentive to her anxiety and did all she could to help her feel safe. She took her on walks, played with her and was appropriately communicative throughout her stay in my home with my dog. I’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to others!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. My friends and family always ask me to check in on, walk, or sit their pets. I am willing to house sit and stay with your pets as long as needed. I don't mind small animals like rabbits or hamsters and am willing to look after reptiles as well. I have a full time job but am available most evenings after 4pm and every weekend at any time. I can do daily check ins every day for meal times but extended care only in the evenings unless I am house sitting. I have 4 dogs who's are all crate trained. Unfortunately I do not have a yard so I am not willing to sit dogs in my own home. I am a big fan of the dog park!
“If you're looking for a trustworthy and amazing pet sitter, look no further! Rachel is the perfect choice! She took care of our four dogs for five days in our home, and they were showered with love and attention. We received daily updates and photos, which was such a nice touch. Coming home to a spotless house and happy pups was a delight. Thank you, Rachel! We truly appreciate everything you did!”
“Shanon did a great job watching my dogs. She made sure medicine was provided on time and didn't miss a beat, while constantly providing love and attention to my dogs. She stayed with them and ensured regular check in for potty breaks, hugs and kisses. Shanon provided pictures and great communication throughout! I will certainly use her again.”
“Tim is the all time best dog sitter. He’s also just an amazing human. We wouldn’t trust anyone besides Tim to take care of our pup. He looks after our house so well, too! We went away for our wedding weekend and came back exhausted and he had done the dishes and washed the sheets to make sure we could come home and go right to bed! Just a stellar human and exceptional sitter. Our dog was so well taken care of - it was a puppy vacation full of treats, hikes, and snuggles!”
About: I've owned dogs and cats since I was ten. I currently have three dogs (one of whom is a senior dog) and two cats. I love walking any dogs and playing in the backyard with them. I've been a volunteer at Last Chance Ranch in Quakertown for the past two years, during which I work with dogs who are happy and wiggly and those who are hesitant, sick or scared. I'm also a mom of two students, an honor student entering college and an honor athlete entering her junior year (so I know how to raise kids too!! :-) ) I look forward to taking care of your babies like I take care of my own. I'm a high school teacher, who can be free to come to your house as of 3pm for walks or to take care of your babies. I am available most weekends. I will follow any requests of the owners, but definitely enjoy a good walk with puppies (all dogs are puppies in my world). Cuddles and talks with your animal are essential to helping them feel safe while mom and dad are away. Your babies and home will be in good hands with me.
“Highly recommend! Responsive, proactive and pleasant to work with. She stayed at my house for 10 days with 2 dogs and a tortoise :-) will use Brooke again for sure!”
“Sarah is an absolutely amazing dog sitter. When she stays at my home I never worry that my dogs are well taken care of. She also does an excellent job of taking care of my house from cleaning everything for our return to leaving sweet flowers that are lovely to come home to. Thank you thank you thank you for loving my doggies as your own!”
“My first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased! Kat was wonderful, sharing pictures and updates and my dogs were happy and content. Definitely going to use her for future sits!”
“Caitlin was fantastic! Our pets absolutely loved her, she shared plenty of photos and updates during the short stayl Couldn't ask for more and we'll definitely be using her again.”
About: I’ve owned a dog of my own since I was about 8 years old. Other then that for a couple years now I have been helping out family friends by walking/ feeding their pets when they are away. I decided to take part in this as a part time summer job! I am very flexible and should have loads of time to walk/ play with your pups. You can fully rely on me to make sure the pups are secured when I leave.. whether this is crating your pet or making sure the gates are locked I’ll make it happen!
