“We had a mixup on timing (my fault) and Paula was great! Understanding and flexible!! Most appreciate it. Oh yes and my doggie is so happy with her!”

“Kanade was amazing!! Our dog is picky with people, but she connected with Kanade right away. Kanade and her husband made Ruggie feel right at home. Thank you for taking great care of our pup!”

“John was very friendly, thorough and knowledgeable about answering all of our questions. He was kind and caring with our Penny and provided plenty of pictures to keep us up to date throughout her stay.”

About: I have grown up with a household of dogs ranging from toy size to large breeds. They are family and I will treat them as such! I currently work from home and have plenty of flexibility to pop in for a walk or visit with your pup in your home whenever necessary. I have a dog of my own so I understand the importance of following their specific needs in terms of walking, being crated, needing medication or special food restrictions. I’m happy to understand what your individual dog needs!
About: I’ve taken care of lots of different breeds of dogs since I was a teenager. I love animals and will be sure to treat your dog with love and care! I am currently working from home, so I will be able to provide lots of attention to your dog. I also walk routinely in the morning and evenings. I do not have any pets that live with me, however there are many open parks and dog parks within a walkable distance from my house.
“Lauren was great with Roxie! She was kind enough to help us out with short notice and made Roxie feel like she was right at home. Roxie is a senior pup with special needs”
“Megan was great watching Reyna while I was at work! She was very flexible with drop off times which I really appreciated and Reyna always seemed happy and tired getting home!”


“Brian was really great with Lincoln who was a little apprehensive about being in the city. Kept me up to date throughout the day and sent lots of pictures. Thank you!”

“Pat was very patient with both Sammy and myself, especially in trying to find his apartment! I had a very stressful day and kept getting confused. Sammy was a rescue with a horrible background and Pat was very careful handling him. Pat took him out for walks several times and Sammy loved being out on his patio! Pat sent several updates and pictures of Sammy during the day. Will be using him every time I go into Philly for my medical appointments.”

“Mara was incredible! She looked after our highly anxious dog for a full day, and our dog had an amazing time. This was the first time we left our dog with someone else, and she gave us frequent updates and worked with us to make sure our dog was set up for success”

“Sarah was absolutely amazing! We stayed in Philly for a couple days and she took great care of our pup while we were out exploring! She made us feel so comfortable knowing that our buddy was safe and happy. They went on lots of walks and had lots of snuggles and she was great about updating us every step of the way! She also sent some pretty fantastic pictures. We will absolutely book Sarah next time we’re in town and are so appreciative of her! Also, her doggy Harry Nilsson is such a sweetheart and was a great companion for our dog!”


“Madeline was great. Took good care of my pup, he didn't wanna go when i picked him up! She was great at responding to any questions and even sent me some pics of Fenn enjoying himself at her house.”
“Deena was very accommodating and good with my dog. This was my first time using Rover and she made the experience great! She took care of my little guy!!! Thank you”

“Brigette was incredible! She is the first rover in Philly we’ve tried and we don’t have to look any further! Both our pups immediately loved and and felt comfortable. Brigette sent us tons of pics and updates - the best kind of sitter! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boys!”


“I have one of those dogs that can open doors, turn on the radio and open her crate. She’s just so independent and intelligent that most sitters are not up for that kind of challenge. Kiara is not one who is easily overwhelmed by all that. She was amazing with both of my dogs while with the loss of a family member. Desi (GSD, cattle dog and pittie) and Biggie smalls (old English bulldog) are in love with her. She is responsible, prompt, compassionate, observant and most importantly loves dogs. I feel blessed to have her watch my kids. Every time I started to wonder how they were doing I got a video or a picture or just a message saying what they were up to.”

“Glenda is so wonderful! She has become my go to sitter for my new rescue. She has been both flexible and communicative about coordinating scheduling and sends cute photo updates throughout the day.”


“Zyiana, was highly communicative and flexible. I needed doggy daycare for my fur baby in a pinch and she showed up. She provided tons of great photos along with taking my baby on 3 walks”
“Tamara was so great with our nervous pup! She made him so cozy in her home and sent the cutest updates through the day. She was always ready to pick him up in the morning right when we would drop him off! We used her for multiple days and can’t recommend her enough!”

Brigette was incredible! She is the first rover in Philly we’ve tried and we don’t have to look any further! Both our pups immediately loved and and felt comfortable. Brigette sent us tons of pics and updates - the best kind of sitter! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boys!

Helen was fantastic! She was very responsive, easy to coordinate with, and provided updates on my boy while I was away. Pickup and drop-off were both seamless, and I felt confident he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Helen to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Madeline was absolutely wonderful with Pixel! She took great care of him and kept us updated throughout his stay with lots of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was very attentive, kind, and easy to communicate with. It was clear that Pixel was comfortable and well cared for. We truly appreciated all the updates and her thoughtful care. We would happily book with Madeline again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

We did a trial stay before our upcoming weekend boarding, and it went so smoothly. My dog is a small reactive dog, and Ginger was incredibly patient, kind, and clearly very experienced with dogs like him. I felt very reassured throughout the process and much more comfortable about the upcoming boarding. Highly recommend, especially for owners of small reactive dogs!

Mara was incredible! She looked after our highly anxious dog for a full day, and our dog had an amazing time. This was the first time we left our dog with someone else, and she gave us frequent updates and worked with us to make sure our dog was set up for success

Olivia was absolutely amazing with Ruey. She not only was able to watch Ruey for two days straight on a last minute basis, but she was also very attentive to Ruey. She took Ruey for walks, fed her, and spent time with her. Ruey was excited to see Olivia and enjoyed her stays! I highly recommend booking Olivia and will do so in the future!

Our dog Leo had an amazing time with Kyla and Hendrix. He’s high energy and tends to be a little nervous staying with new people, but Kyla took him out on a hike and played with him which kept him busy and made him comfortable. He came home tired and so happy. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for great dog care!

Victoria was a wonderful sitter for Joy! She and her sister took my girl for a car ride which she loves. Joy looked so excited and happy when I picked her up so I knew she had a great time with Victoria. She has a beautiful home with SO much space for Joy to play and Joy even had a playmate, Victoria’s pup Bailey! I would certainly recommend her and would book with her again if I’m in the Philadelphia area. Thank you Victoria for caring for my girl!

Sarah: Sorry but I just finished music lesson. I hereby authorize as I tried to do earlier that Luis should get Belle back because she is totally bonded to him and they really love each other and I hope he can find a way to keep her because if I’d brought her home with me in less than a minute she’d have jumped my fence and run off to find him . She’s his. He doesn’t have to return my money unless he wants to but if not please spend it on Belle’s care: full DHLPP vaccine, heartworm tests and prevention, flea/tick quality prevention (both above can be done now with shots rather than monthly pills, any other necessary vet work at best subsidized clinic in the area, spaying so if she runs away again she at least isn’t forced into “sex slavery” breeding litter after litter of doodle puppies for unethical breeders/puppy mills. And since she’d SO bonded to Luis he MUST find someone who can erect an 8’ fence or she’ll run away again. Believe me, that’s what the dog I just had to put down at age 15 did for her first seven years. Run away. Finally I got Mister Kook, the white golden retriever I brought to meet Belle hoping they would click but they didn’t at all, Belle showed no interest in me, I should never have taken her, but I was completely distracted and freaking out fearing the eye specialist (retinologist) I was about to see would say that the age-related macular degeneration that I have and watched my mother go functionally blind from starting at my age was progressing and I would share her fate. (A close family friend was going through the same thing at the same time.) But the doctor told me “You are NOT about to go blind and we have many new treatments.” I was so euphoric it took me an hour after Belle ran away to realize this was a serious problem. Purvina and Rohil were terrific and deserve five gold stars for all they did to get her back. texted to I guess Purvina last night but I thought it was Rover: "If this is Rover, or even if not, even before the terrific amazing news about finding Belle, I wanted to give Purvina and Rohil a five start Rover review and say something like “they showed amazing dedication and resourcefulness and energy trying to resolve a complicated problem.” Without describing the problem. Even before finding Belle, they deserved to keep their Super Sitter status and more. But please don’t ask me all the other questions asked in these reviews since I barely saw the inside of their (lovely) house etc etc. They were super about updating me." +1 (908) 705-4145: Thank you so much sarah! Do you mind posting this authorization in the Rover app

Natalie did a great job watching my dog, also named Luna! She had great communication and sent pictures of the two Lunas together to keep me updated. She learned about Luna before she came so she could prepare and make her comfortable. I recommend Natalie for any pup sitting!
