“Quynh made our first rover experience so easy! Quick to respond and accommodated our early drop off time. It was our puppy’s first time alone with someone new and she loved it! Quynh made sure Britney got enough exercise and rest and we’re soo grateful! Will definitely be booking her again!”

4. Amanda G.
“Amanda was great! She was easy to talk to and super flexible with scheduling and working around my hours. We did a quick meet-and-greet before the scheduled daycare day, so that our dogs could get familiarized and to go over Chili’s routine. On the actual day, drop-off and pick-up went smoothly. Chili was well taken care of throughout the day and when I picked him up, seemed like a happy pupper. Amanda was easy to reach over the app and I know if had any questions throughout the day, she’d be quick to respond. Overall, I was really happy with Amanda’s care and most importantly, seemed like Chili enjoyed it too.”
5. Christie & Drew C.
“I can't say enough about Christie and Drew. They allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our dog. They were great about sending us pics and updates throughout the day. Our dog was super excited to return the following day. I highly recommend them and definitely would use them again.”
6. Sonshine P.
“Sonshine is amazing! It was my first time leaving Louise with someone she’d never met and from the very first moment I instantly felt at ease- she ran right to him and i knew they’d have a great day together. Sonshine sent a photo update within a few minutes, and Louise was already settled in and happy. And several photo updates over the next few hours. And they were enjoying the sunshine on a cute bench in front of his building when i arrived to pick her back up. Wish I could leave more than 5 stars, such an excellent experience all around. Thank you!”

About: Hi :) With many years of dedicated pet sitting experience, I have a good understanding of the unique needs of each pet. After the loss of my soul dog Remy last year, I'm eager to share my love and attention with new furry friends, soaking up all of the joy they bring into our lives and making sure you have a peace of mind by knowing that they are well cared for while you’re away. I’ve been the dog owner requesting dog walks and dog sits so I know how important finding a great sitter can be. I live and work remotely in Philly at a typical 9-5 job so I am able to care for your pet throughout the day. My place has a fenced in yard, a couple blocks from the schuylkill, and free pup cup froyos around the block. Everything to keep your pup spoiled while you’re away. I live in a very walkable part of the city, so if your dog is comfortable, I would also love bringing them along to restaurants or coffee shops. I have a spacious first floor apartment that has a small fenced in yard. I also have large and xl dog crates stored at my apartment that can be used if crates are part of your dogs routine. That way you wouldn’t need to lug them over to my place. Pets are allowed on the furniture & I live a few blocks away from the schuylkill dog park.

About: With a deep love for animals and years of hands-on experience, I'm here to provide exceptional care for your pets. Having worked at an animal clinic from high school through college, I've learned a lot about animal behavior, health, and wellbeing. Growing up with dogs, and currently sharing my home with a dog and cat alongside my supportive partner, I understand the importance of trust and reliability when it comes to caring for your pets. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or snuggles, rest assured your pets will receive the same level of care and attention they would at home. Book my services today and give your pets the love and care they deserve!🐾 I am currently working full-time with a hybrid work schedule. With a hybrid work setup, I'm available for pet sitting during evenings, weekends, and select weekdays. My own cat and dog are very friendly and are also well-socialized with other animals. However, I understand that every pet has its own preferences and comfort levels. I can easily accommodate any special requests or needs, including keeping animals separate if necessary, to ensure an stress-free and enjoyable experience for all furry guests.

“Kelly, thanks so much for suggesting a quick meet and greet ahead of Reggie’s stay with you…meeting and seeing the fenced in yard allowed me to relax knowing Reggie was in great hands! Please give scoots and chuck a treat for me , they really tired out Reggie and he was ready for a nap as soon as we got home! Will be seeing you (and chuck/scoots) again soon!”
18. Sara S.
“Of the many sitters I’ve used on Rover, Sara was one of the best! She sent lots of Insta-worthy photos. She also brought Aurora to the dog park and sent a cute video of her thrashing with the other dogs. Aurora had lots of fun playing with Kodi’s toys. She will be going back to Sara next week. I can’t recommend her enough!”
