“Kat was great with my cat Josie! She sent me pictures and went above and beyond to make sure Josie was happy and comfortable while I was on vacation. 😻”



“Hanna has been wonderful pup sitting for us! She is a great communicator, sends photos daily, and you can really tell she cares for our little nugget ❤️ we will definitely be booking with Hanna again in the future!”


“Oliver is a top-notch dog sitter! He absolutely exceeded our expectations when it came to the level of dedication he provided for our dog, Jaxson. Jax has special needs and requires some extra levels of care. Specifically, he requires oral medication and a specific routine. Oliver was committed to following Jaxson's care requirements and made sure we were confident that we were leaving him in good hands. Not only did he provide amazing care, but he also exceeded our expectations when it came to communication. He left a kind note welcoming us home and letting us know how Jaxson's day had gone. He also left the house in perfect, tidy condition. Oliver is kind, smart, prepared, dedicated, and everything you could possibly want in a dog sitter. 10/10, I would recommend him to anyone, anytime! Thank you, Oliver, for taking such good care of our buddy! We hope to see you soon!”


“Wow, Noa was an amazing sitter for our little guy, sharing very thorough and thoughtful updates! She is very personable, anticipated the needs of our little one, and went above & beyond to make sure he was okay and felt comfortable! We will definitely be asking Noa back to hang with our pup in the future!! ❤️”

“Stefan did a great job giving our pups lots of attention and sending us regular updates. We definitely felt that the dogs were well taken care of and would book him again.”


“Rebecca paid attention to the instructions and provided a TON of updates and photos that I really appreciated! You can tell that she is attentive to my dog's wants and needs and tries to adapt. She even tried to do her favorite activity which is to throw 10 frisbees at a time for her to grab and pick up! Which I think is awesome she tries to accommodate. Would definitely book again! Thank you!!”


“Dan was extremely responsive and trustworthy during this whole stay. Sending me updates about the dogs and spending a ton of time with them as well. Definitely will be using him again in the future!”


“Bethany gave us content updates while house-sitting for Butkus, our 10-year old AmStaff who has separation anxiety issues. She took great care of him and kept us informed the whole time.”


“Shane did an amazing job taking care of my house and cat while I traveled! Reuben was happy and tended to, and Shane sent lots of pictures and updates. He was very communicative and responsible. I trust Shane and would recommend him any time!”


“This was my first time leaving Baxter with someone outside of close family and friends, and Claudia made the whole experience way less stressful than I expected. Baxter has epilepsy and takes meds throughout the day, which she not only made sure he got all his meds on time but even sent me updates each time to confirm. She also came early to meet us and get to know Baxter’s routines, which helped a lot. He’s picky about walks (only likes certain blocks), but Claudia handled it like a pro and kept me posted the whole time. 100% recommend!”


“Nadine did a great job with our senior dog, Tugs. She sent photo updates unprompted, didn’t hesitate to reach out with questions and left the house neat and tidy. Will definitely use her again!”


“Went above and beyond with our pets, Harvey and Aurora. 100% recommend. Harvey, Aurora, and our home were well taken care of. Very communicative and we received updates multiple times throughout the day. Anyone would be lucky to have Ahmirah watch their pets. Thank you so much for everything!”


“Kelsey was great! She was so easy to coordinate with. Our puppy was spayed the day before, and Kelsey was very attentive to her, making sure that she was doing fine and that there were no concerning symptoms following the surgery. We would highly recommend Kelsey to anyone!”


“Diana did a great job house sitting and taking care of our 9 year old American Staffordshire Terrier. He is a high energy dog that has some seperation anxiety when we leave town and can be a little bold at times. But she did a great job handling his energy with plenty of walks and mental stimulation. We came home to a relaxed and happy dog!”


“Angela was lovely! She was very responsive and our dog took to her immediately. She sent lots of pictures, checked in about specifics, and left our house in perfect condition. We are happy to hire Angela again!”



“Emily was an epiphany for our family. We have always had trouble leaving out now 11-yo German Shepherd because of his multiple health problems requiring daily oral and ocular medication administration and his dog aggression and separation anxiety resulting from troubled past as a neglected dog. He is slow to trust new people and is difficult to walk as he can be unpredictable and his lunge is quite strong. I cannot emphasize enough that this has been a big problem in the past that caused a lot of stress on trips. Emily arrived promptly at the designated time for our meet-and-greet, and from the minute she met Ilbo I could tell that she was an experienced and compassionate dog-handler who was serious about the dog's safety and well-being and would be extremely attentive to his needs. After a short introduction I felt comfortable handing her his leash and watched while she expertly navigated him around the relatively busy streets of Center City. She asked all the right questions to get to know his schedule and maintenance and was warm and friendly with him and with our many instructions and questions. After understanding that she would be a great fit for us, we booked her for an 8-night stay while we traveled abroad to see family. Again, she prepared for the stay by ensuring that she had access to and understood all care instructions and setting forth clear expectations for how she would walk, feed, and support Ilbo while we were gone. As sure as her word we received regular updates about his well-being and honest questions when anything new came up. Unlike previous experiences when we have left him and he exhibited anxious behaviors, with Emily he appeared happy, comfortable, and extremely well-taken care of while we were gone. When we did return, we found him lounging at Emily's feet, healthy, happy, calm, and exhibiting all the signs that Emily had maintained (or even enhanced) his leash-training and social skills. He clearly grew to like and depend on Emily for support and affection. We will absolutely ask (beg) Emily to care for Ilbo again if we leave the city. She is truly gifted with a calm energy that Ilbo really responded to and she pairs that natural gift with lots of experience making her able to care for complex dogs and an attentiveness to detail and sense of responsibility that meant that everything we asked her to attend to was done. She is a real gift to anyone who needs to leave a senior, sick, behaviorally complex, or otherwise unusual pet. We have never felt so comfortable leaving Ilbo with anyone and hope very much that Emily can help others like us as well.”


“My husband and I recently had the pleasure of having Hope take care of our dog and home for a week when we were in a last minute pinch - we could not be happier with the experience! She responded to the booking quickly and scheduled a virtual meet/greet to accommodate the last-minute nature of our request and we could tell immediately she was an experienced pet sitter and highly trustworthy. She arrived promptly, followed all of our dog's care instructions, and gave him tons of love, attention and walks. We loved receiving regular updates and photos of him lounging on the couch and joining her zoom meetings - it really helped put our minds at ease because he's usually anxious while we're away. When we returned, our home was spotless, and our dog was relaxed and happy. I highly recommend Hope to anyone in need of a reliable and caring sitter! Thank you for everything!”

Point Breeze pet parents share their Rover experiences
Walker house sat for us for 10 days and watched our two VERY high maintenance frenchies (stomach issues, behavioral issues, etc etc). We were blown away by how seamlessly she connected with our pups - it was like they had known her for months! Thanks to Walker, we were able to enjoy our vacation without spending every moment worried about the dogs (a common occurrence for us on trips). She was communicative (multiple pictures a day, always responsive), flexible, and all around a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend Walker and plan to use her whenever we have travel planned!

Quanece and Malik did such a great job watching our dog penny! Since we moved to Philly we had barely left, due to not having a trusted dog sitter. They took amazing care of our dog, left us multiple updates a day, and they left our house absolutely immaculate. We already have them scheduled for another trip this month and will continue to be repeat customers!

in short, rachel was awesome and i would definitely book her again! she stayed with my two dogs, one was brand new to us and needed lots of extra attention, monitoring, meds, etc and rachel took great care of her. she sent tons of pics and videos so we would know all is good. she was flexible on end time after our flight got cancelled. all around super easy to work with and so lovely with my pups!

Went above and beyond with our pets, Harvey and Aurora. 100% recommend. Harvey, Aurora, and our home were well taken care of. Very communicative and we received updates multiple times throughout the day. Anyone would be lucky to have Ahmirah watch their pets. Thank you so much for everything!

Kirsten was wonderful with my two kittens! She was punctual, communicative, and the kittens loved her. She sent the best photos and plenty of updates. It was a true luxury to be able to relax and unwind on my vacation trusting that my kittens were being well cared for by her. Thank you so much Kirsten!

India was fortunately available when I was in a crunch to find a sitter for my new cat on short notice. I’ve never used Rover before and was nervous to leave my cat in the care of someone new, and India really made the first time super easy. I was provided with so many thoughtful updates and sweet photos of their time together. I will definitely book India again when I plan to be out of town. Her knowledge and experience with pets is apparent and I think anyone would be lucky to add her to their pet sitting roster ◡̈

Dominique was extremely communicative, detail oriented, and followed my recommendations and requests very well. i was grateful she could stay at my place much of the time so my little one didn't have to be alone too often. I definitely recommend Dominique! THANK YOU!

Wendy was attentive and thoughtful taking care of our house and our animals for a long weekend. She gave us updates and pictures throughout the trip so we never felt nervous about how everyone was doing. We’d recommend Wendy to anyone looking for a sitter and are hoping she’s available next time we’re going away.

Dan took great care of our two dogs at our house while we were away for a night. He was communicative and prompt with his responses and we loved all of his updates! We have a diabetic dog who needs insulin with his meals and is on a very strict schedule with that, and Dan made sure to understand all of our care instructions which we extra appreciate!
Sasha was a wonderful dog sitter and house sitter! She stayed with our pups for a week while we were on vacation and we never once felt nervous about them being left behind. She sent many updates and we were confident our dogs were happy and healthy while we were away. Bonus- our house was immaculate when we returned. He will definitely be using her again in the future.

Princess did a great job of taking care of our cats. She went above and beyond with our cat that takes daily medicine and can be a bit difficult/shy. It felt great to know she was getting her meds and they were all well Taken care of while we were gone. Would ask her to pet sit again!

Amazing communication, went above and beyond with my pets. They loved him and I am really grateful that he was able to help me out with such short notice. I received updates and pictures every walk, every few hours. One of my dogs is reactive and Stefan still went above and beyond to take him on long walks and handled him with such care and expertise. I have a hard time trusting anyone with my babies, but I can definitely trust Stefan. Thank you so much!
