“Charles did a great job taking care of our fur babies. We loved his hilarious check-ins and photos. Always on time and thorough with his care. We will request him again for our next family vacay!”
“Lex took care of our 2 dogs and very high maintenance cat! She was super communicative and made sure to double check all of the many instructions we left! Thank you so much, Lex!”
“I’ve booked Madeleine twice and she’s always quick to respond/confirm booking, on time for scheduled drop-ins and communicates well while I’m away.”
“Amanda has spent many weekends with my pup! She has always been very accommodating with my schedule and even last minute requests. I know my pup is in good hands when I’m away! Thanks Amanda for all the care and attention you give to Charlie!”
“I contacted Carla because there are some days we can’t get home early enough to let the dogs out. She came over to do a meet and greet before getting started and she did really good with all of them even our rescue, Dora who can be a little skittish. She came over last week to let them out and did a fantastic job. They took a minute to warm up to her but once she started giving them treats they were best friends. She was able to get them out to use the bathroom and played with them for a little bit. She even wiped their paws when they came back in.”
“Peter was great. I felt very comfortable leaving Bob with him.”
About: I have always loved animals! I take care of my now ten year old cats and dogs. I am a huge animal lover :) I will always be patient, kind and loving with your pets. You can trust me to keep them safe, healthy, and happy! I’m currently free for the summer! I go to college starting late august, so I’m trying to save up and get as much work in as possible. I would follow the instructions given, insuring all requests have been completed. I would leave the home as I found it and make sure the pets are satisfied and content.
About: I am the proud pet parent of 14 year old standard poodle Sammi and a rescue kitty of 8 years Buddy. I have been taking of dogs and cats all my life, I even owned a bunny rabbit !

I do have a fenced in yard and my fur babies are friendly. If your baby needs space I can keep them separated. Whatever your situation is we can make it work
“Olivia is the best!! She came over to meet us before we did our first visit. She was so good with both of our dogs - one with high energy and one who is very mellow. She came to drop in and bring our dog to their boarding place & sent us pictures and was an amazing communicator! You can trust her with your dogs! We are so appreciative of her!”
“Kyla sent me the cutest photos and updates regarding my girls. First time using the service and couldn't be more pleased. Will definitely be using her in the future.”
About: I have a natural way with dogs. I've cared for a variety of pets all my adult life, including several dogs, cats and reptiles. Dogs are by far my favorite. I like all breeds and mixes but am partial to Rotties and Boston Terriers. I'm an active person by nature and love to take walks in the park. I live in Collingswood, South Jersey just 7 miles from Philadelphia and spend a lot of time in the city. So I'm OK taking care of dogs in South Jersey or Philadelphia. Right now my dog is a boxer mix named Frankie. He’s 3 years old, and loves playing with all other dogs. It’s amazing how he adjusts his style of play to dogs of any size!
“Amy went above and beyond with detailed notes and photos after each visit. She was so kind, professional, and timely. It is always hard to leave your pets but we felt at ease leaving our kitties in Amy’s care. She made our first experience with Rover a really positive one. We will definitely be using Amy for all of our future pet sitting needs!”
“I can't say enough good things about Ashley!! I was on vacation for 5 days and she cared for my 4 dogs the whole time I was gone! She went over and above what a pet/house sitter would do!! And my pups adore her!!! Would absolutely recommend!!”
“Kim was very friendly and energetic. She gave each of our 2 dogs individual attention and catered to their needs.”
About: I have owned animals since I was 10! I have taken care of puppies, kittens, older animals and even elderly pets. I am always delicate and will always make sure your baby is safe and sound, I can walk your dogs, take them outside to use the bathroom, feed them, play with them, etc. Your pet would have a blast with me! I work part time currently and all my school work is online so I would have so much time to hang out with your babies. I’m available to do walks or feedings on weekdays (excluding Friday) and in the afternoon on weekends and Fridays. I will always make sure your house is safe and would check every time to see if your doors are closed if your pet likes to run out. I will be willing to help with potty training for puppies if needed or even litter box training. I am calm and I often feel as if I have a bond with animals so there would never be any screaming or anything such when around your babies.
About: My goal is to care for your animal as much as I love and care for my own! I work for Rover as well as another caregiving agency and caring for animals is truly my passion. I am able to do daycare and drop ins on Thursday’s. I am able to do daycare, walks and *only able to do boarding* overnight from Friday after 7pm to Sunday 7pm! I am a rule follower! I want to be sure I’m working in a way that best suits you and your pet so we all feel safe and have fun!
About: I've been a doggie daddy for over 15 years and have walked dogs professionally: very responsible and caring. Will treat your baby like my own! I work part-time so I am available during the week and weekends to walk and care for your fur baby, who will be in excellent and loving hands. I have a large, fenced in yard that is great for outdoor play with pets. It is in a very secure and well maintained area.
