About: I have had a cat since I was a little kid and have had a dog for over 15 years. I am a very reliable dog walker— I walk my dog for about 2-3 hours per day. I spend a lot of time snuggling with my cat and brushing her, making sure she’s happy! My friends all say they wish they were reincarnated as my pets! I currently work from home and walk my dog between 2-3 hours per day. Your dog can join us or I can walk separately! Whatever your pet needs! My schedule is extremely flexible. My dog is a service dog at Penn hospital and is very calm and relaxed! My house is very pet friendly as I have a dog and a cat. Their needs are my first priority! I am very patient and attentive!

About: An avid pet lover, I began walking dogs several years ago for friends and neighbors. I work remotely so my schedule is extremely flexible. I have a 2000 sq ft loft in Old City Philadelphia adjacent to several neighborhood parks including a designated dog park. I have an extremely friendly, affectionate Lhatese who loves to play with other dogs. I look forward to caring for your furry darling. They will be a welcome addition to my home. I currently work from home and I am in the process of transitioning to full time pet services so my availability to care for your dog or cat is wide open. I have the entire second floor of a walk-up building with an open floor plan so there is plenty of room for your dog or cat to play. I also have a fence in case there is a need for separation. I am surrounded by several parks (including a fenced-in dog park two blocks away). I walk my own dog 3-4 times per day as we both love the outdoors. Center City Veterinary is just two blocks away so you can enjoy peace of mind in case you need to leave your pet for an extended period of time

“Purvina & Rohil were amazing with my dog Mochi! They sent lots of photos and my pup looked right at home with the two of them. Would definitely book again!”


“Dante was very nice. He treated my 9 week old Havanese as if it was his own. Definitely will be using Dante again and recommending him to all my fur mommies and daddies.”


“Rob was a great host to our pup, Whiskey. He was prompt and provided plenty of updates throughout the day. Whiskey came home tired after a full day of playing with other dogs. I’d recommend Rob for anyone looking for pet care in the area!”


About: My schedule is extremely flexible and I’m willing to do pickup/drop off. I currently live in a pet friendly apartment. I will always keep you informed of updates and make sure your pet doesn’t miss you too much while you’re away! I have a lot of availability and my calendar has opened up even more as I was impacted by recent layoffs at my full time job. Giving your pet sufficient attention, walks, treats and care is extremely important! I care about following a routine as far as feeding time and walks go.

“Birol was fantastic with Winnie, in frequent communication with pictures and videos. He treated Winnie like his own. We Could not recommend him more strongly!”


“Jessica was INCREDIBLE! My husband and I are always concerned about sending our yorkie away because he is very sensitive the changes. Luckily, he was very comfortable with Jessica because she was so skilled at interacting with even the small, sensitive ones :) We'd definitely recommend Jessica! And we would also most definitely think of her first the next time we need a sitter! Thanks, Jessica!”


“We have nothing but great things to say about Amanda! We came to Philly for a long weekend and couldn't find a care facility last minute. We took a chance on Rover and had some worries about trusting a complete stranger with our two anxious pups. Once we saw Amanda's profile, we felt relieved to see someone with such great experience and return clients. Although we doubt we will be able to be repeat clients (since we live a whole state away) we will absolutely search for Amanda if we find ourselves in her area again. Our oldest pup trusted her immediately and stayed by her side for the entirety of his stay. Our youngest was very anxious but came around to her care and felt safe enough to rest with her. We also felt very grateful that her services were focused on one client at a time. I think our boys would have had a harder time coping with other pets around. Amanda has been thoughtful, communicative, and very trustworthy through our whole interaction. You won't regret booking her services! :)”


“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!”


“They were incredibly accommodating and wonderful with my dog. I cannot thank them enough for their patience and generosity. Thank you so much!”



“Madeleine and her family were awesome. They made our Army Navy weekend even greater. We got to enjoy the game and tailgate while Ginger and Kindle had a fun time too. One of my friends who were with us remark how awesome they came out to greet us as we dropped off the dogs. They make you feel like your family. Thanks so much!”

10. Brian S.
“Brian is amazing and compassionate with animals. While running errands or during a day while I’m in class, I ask him to watch my pup from time to time and that little ball of energy never wants to leave. I swear my pup is a healthy weight due to this man remembering what he eats. Brian is the most caring dog owner I know… he just has this air about him that helps make pets feel at ease. As long as the pets aren’t bigger than Brian, the might mistake him for an adorable chew toy.”
