“We had a great experience with Sara! She was so kind to our kitties and took great care of them while we were away. We appreciate her detailed updates and photos - it let us know they were in safe hands while we were gone! She also helped out with bringing in mail, packages, and litter, which was much appreciated! Would definitely book again when the time comes.”
“Cece is very sweet. She followed all of my directions and took care of our kittens while we were briefly out of town. She also managed to impress our one kitten who is apprehensive of strangers. She sent pictures which we greatly appreciated. Thank you again!”
“Wayne was incredibly helpful with taking care of our rabbits and dog! He was proactive about asking if they needed medication (which they did) and a strong communicator about timing. Thank you again!”

About: I am an employee of the Cat Hospital of Media as a Veterinary Assistant as well as a Pre-Vet student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I have two dogs of my own, a bunny, a bearded dragon, and I love to care for my friends and family’s animals At any time Monday, after 4:30 Tuesday-Friday, any time on the weekend. Pet care at home could fall at any hour of the day, as mine are very active I assure all pets are attended to and enriched, spending time with them as well as respecting their space. Appreciating each animal’s unique character is important
“Molly was amazing! Went to Jersey shore for 2 weeks and she handled EVERYTHING! Feedings, extra walks, picking up the mail… she was above and beyond. Great at communicating and lots of photos and details. Always on time. So responsible and mature.”
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember! I started dog walking at 16 and have been volunteering at local animal shelters since I was 18, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and even reptiles, so I’m comfortable handling different personalities and care needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to treat your pets with the utmost care and ensure they’re happy and safe while you’re away. I work full-time so I offer all services, but for house sitting and house boarding, I can provide potty breaks between 4-8 hours. I always treat your home with the same respect and care as I would my own. While caring for your pets, I make sure their routines stay consistent—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just relaxing together. I’m attentive to details like keeping feeding areas tidy, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring your home stays secure while you’re away.
“Shannon did a great job with my dog! She was happy when I got home from work. The pictures made my day while I was at work. Will definitely use Shannon again in the near future”
“Emily took such great care of my cat. He had a potential health scare while I was away and was showing a lot of anxiety. Emily handled the unexpected issues so well and communicated everything with a lot of detail to help me understand the situation, including doing a video call. I would definitely recommend her for taking care of your pet!”
“We had a great experience with Alexis while she did drop-in visits for our dog Miso. She was incredibly thoughtful and flexible. She agreed to meet Miso twice before our trip so he’d feel more comfortable, and even added an extra visit when our travel plans changed unexpectedly. She was also attentive and reliable, and handled Miso’s behavioral quirks with ease. He can be high-strung and pushy and it gave us peace of mind to know he was so well looked after while we were away. We highly recommend Alexis and would be happy to utilize her again for future care!”
“Madeline was reliable, efficient, caring, and respectful. She cleaned dishes my cats used without me asking, clean us the unexpected messes the cats made, and provided updates with pictures throughout the process. This was my first time using rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience”
“Amy took very good care of our kitten, played a lot with him and made sure he was happy. She communicates a lot, which was reassuring for us. We highly recommend her and will be happy to work with her next time we'll have to leave town.”
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.
“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!”
“I’m glad I found Emily, as soon as we met I felt comfortable with her taking care of my dog and cat. I love my dog but she can be a handful haha. Emily totally got it, and was perfect with her from the start. Very responsive, clearly capable, did everything I requested. I can’t recommend enough. Thanks, Emily!”

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.
Lindsey was very easy to work with, and I came home to everything in order. Throughout the trip, she was incredibly communicative and provided me with thorough updates on how my cats were doing. I felt they were in good hands, and I appreciated her attention to detail. I will definitely be using her again.
Another amazing experience having Spencer watch our cats. Every visit included the full 30 minutes, thoughtful summaries, and lots of pictures, which gave us great peace of mind while away. Litter boxes and cat bowls were cleaned diligently every day, and Spencer was incredibly patient and creative with our more temperamental cat. Loving, responsible, and professional, cannot recommend enough!!! Thank you
Zoe was wonderful with my kitty Boba! This was the longest I’ve been away from her, and knowing Boba was getting such great care and quality time during the daily drop-in visits made me feel at ease. I appreciated Zoe following all instructions carefully and sharing updates and photos after each visit. I’d definitely trust her with Boba again.
I've worked with Meghan in the past - thought it's been a while now. I have to say nothing has changed! She is still fantastic! A stellar communicator, she's reliable and really does know how to care for your pet. I'm torn leaving this review because she's just going to get to busy and I won't be able to book her next time, lol. You'd be lucky to work with her. Thank you, Meghan.
