Pet care experience

Pet-loving couple ready to "sit!"

We’ve spent the last 16 years pet sitting in New York before making the move to Philadelphia, and we’re excited to meet more furry (or fluffy) friends here. From energetic dogs and laid-back cats to the occasional adventurous rabbit, we’ve love them all. We treat every pet like part of our own family—because that’s exactly how it should be.

Safety, trust & environment

When we care for pets in your home, we treat it like our own—tidy, respectful, and welcoming. We take the time to get to know your pets’ routines and personalities, so they feel relaxed and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just good company, we’re there to keep them feeling loved and secure. You can trust that we’ll leave your home just the way you left it—and your pets looking forward to our next visit.

Dawn & Sarah are a gift! They stayed with Gus for a whole week and provided daily updates to include cute stories and photos about Gus while we were away. They took such care of our home and we are blessed to have them as part of our community. Thank you for taking care of our furbaby!

I have used Dawn and Sarah for two long term stays while I was on vacation and I highly recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind for your home and pets while you are away! I received regular updates/photos of my cats and they left my home tidy and clean. Your cats will love them!

Dawn & Sarah took such incredible care of our boy Gus. They were so thoughtful and caring! We came home to a very happy and healthy boy. They were very respectful of our home and I cannot wait for them to care for Gus again soon! Thank you!!!

I travel for work often. Dawn and Sarah have taken care of my cat and house sat several times for me. Not only making sure my cat was well taken care of but also treating my home as if it was their own. When they arrive to cat sit, my cat runs to them as if excited to see them! It gives me great assurance that he is in the amazing care of Dawn and Sarah. I trust them completely.

I’ve known Dawn Mountain for over 17 years. She has house sat for my two cats more then 35 times. Not once, never, did I have any stress while I was away as Dawn is so good with animals. You will definitely get your moneys worth when you hire Dawn! Rgds Lane R.

We like to know as much as possible about your pets before we hang out. That means learning their daily routine, what they love to eat, any meds they need, and all the little things that make them tick. We’ll ask about their favorite activities, what makes them happiest, and also what they’d rather avoid—like loud noises, thunderstorms, or other animals. The more we know about their personality and what helps them feel safe and comfortable, the better we can make sure they’re relaxed and having a great time while you’re away.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
