“Brianna was kind enough to accept our very last minute request and came over to meet the cats and get care instructions ahead of time. Very happy to have found a friendly and professional sitter in our new town.”
About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other people’s pets I’ve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. I’m a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I can’t have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!
“Trederica was wonderful! Kept me updated with pictures every visit & accommodated all my needs when it came to my fur baby, would absolutely book her again.”
“Jessica has taken care of Kitty twice and I could not be happier. Such a relief to have the excellent communication and have someone I can trust to take care of her when I am out of town and unreachable. Thanks Jessica.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as i could remember. I currently have 3 cats and I take care of my grandmothers dog from time to time when i go to new york . I love my animals so much and they mean the world to me. I take care of my cats everyday, i make sure they have food and fresh water. I get in some snuggles and cuddles with them everyday and make sure every one feels loved. I make sure their liter box is changed so they have a great place to use the restroom and so the house won’t stink. With my experience with caring for children , i realize that animals are similar with care in some ways. Some animals need a lot of attention so it requires you to be there for them , while some animals are just really chill. I make sure that every animal i take care of doesnt have a place where they can potentially escapee, have food , keep all breakable things away, and make sure they are not chewing on anything that is dangerous.
“Miranda did a great job watching over my two cats, Ninja and Scraps while I was away on vacation. I definitely would recommend her and will be using her again in the future! She left great notes and made me feel at ease while I was away. 😁 Thank you. This was the first time I have used Rover and it was a great experience. Miranda also help me understand how to use the app since I made some silly mistakes.”
“I highly recommend Samantha for pet sitting! She arrived early to feed our guy which I’m sure he appreciated and was even willing to check litter, water, etc. She communicated clearly each check in and was very professional and friendly. Hoping to book her again soon!”
“Antoinette was amazing with my cats! She was great at following the instructions given and communicating with me. She also provided pictures and videos which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Ayo has been amazing! Very detailed and caring check-ins. He made sure to go above and beyond for our bunnies and dog. We’ll definitely ask him to watch them again in the future!”
“Nicole was fantastic with our two cats, who required a lot of love and attention while we were out of town. She always went above and beyond which was extremely helpful and appreciated! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life and love every type breed and size. I am the go to friend when a friend needs someone to come let their dogs out or watch them over a weekend. I have a 3 year old Pitt/Staffy that I rescued when he was very young. I work 4 days a week, which I will typically block off, but am home several times for walks and care. If needing days covered outside my availability, given it would be a good fit and pickup/dropoff works with my schedule, I can try to accommodate. I block off any time I’ll be out of town and mainly just chill at home with my own pitty otherwise. We go on daily walks for the needed exercise and energy burn. My apartment is smaller but we have a great neighborhood to walk in. We have Pennypack park I go to for walks frequently and visit other outdoor dog parks in Jersey once a weekend. I have an extra crate if it’s needed and lots of toys.
“Anthony is amazing, the care and love he showed for Persi was amazing. All the camera shots were fantastic to get every time he visited. Even brought in our packages! 10 out of 10!”
“Matina and Amanda took great care of my kitties while I was gone! They sent lots of pics, were quick to communicate, and were flexible with timing. Highly recommend!”
Palmyra dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was the third time Matthew has cared for Toby, Twix, Tilly, and Tessi, and it was also the longest period I have ever been away from them. Each time, he consistently demonstrates genuine care, patience, and professionalism in handling my dogs and their individual needs. Toby is a special needs dog who requires a belly band, regular cleaning routines, skin care treatments, and close monitoring. In addition, right before my trip, Twix developed ulcers that required medications and eye drops, and Matthew managed his treatments carefully and patiently, even when administering them was difficult. Caring for four dogs is already demanding, but my situation is especially complex. My boys must remain separated due to fighting, the girls can be destructive with bedding, and accidents can happen. Finding someone willing and capable of managing these responsibilities has always been a major concern for me, especially when trying to travel to visit my fiancé. One of the things I appreciate most is the level of communication Matthew provides throughout the stay. He consistently sends updates and photos, and he is very attentive about voicing any concerns regarding my dogs’ health or behavior. That level of detail and attentiveness gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away and reassured me that my dogs were being carefully monitored and genuinely cared for. Matthew has given me complete confidence and peace of mind every time he watches my dogs. I am incredibly grateful for the compassion, reliability, and dedication he provides, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking attentive and trustworthy pet care.
Deresha is great! Feel like I got lucky with her being available. She knows her way around dogs of all breeds and can handle any type trouble your dog may give some one. Trusted her more and more as time went on. You won’t regret hiring Deresha to take care of your little ones, she’s great and is even willing to meet you before you need services to make sure she’s a good fit for your mascots. Deresha is the best!
