Pet Sitting Riverfront

“Ellen was fantastic with Clover. She came to do a “Meet and Greet” and then we walked Clover to the park. Clover immediately took to Ellen, and I would not hesitate to have her watch Clover again. I would highly recommend!”

“Pat was wonderful with Oliver! It’s our first time using Rover, and we were very impressed with the amount of time and attention that Pat gave to Oliver over the week.”

“Alexandra helped me out in a pinch when my sitter cancelled for a trip last minute! She sent lots of pictures and gave very descriptive updates on how my two cats were doing. I warned her that my shy and fearful cat may not come out from hiding while she was there, but even on the first day he had already started warming up to her and allowed her to pet him - which is truly no small feat! So grateful for the last minute support, flexibility and patience with my cats. 5 ⭐️”

About: New to Rover, but I’ve taken care of dogs for over 12 years and cats for over 5 years, and can always be sure to feed, walk, and provide medication to your pets in a timely manner. My apartment is ensured to be pet-proofed and a cozy environment for most any dog. Your pets are your babies and I will make sure to treat them as if they were my own!! I also have two close DVM (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) friends on speed dial to consult in case of any emergencies. Happy to chat more and gain a new niece/nephew!! I currently work from home Monday through Wednesday and am home by 6 on days that I am in office (Thursday/Friday). Weekends I am home for the majority of the day, so from Saturday-Wednesday I can ensure that your fur baby gets enough play time and attention throughout the day! For weekend boarding, I’m happy to chat through earlier arrangements for Friday drop off (1:30-6pm). I can wake up early and stay up as late as needed if frequent walks are needed. My apartment will be your pet’s little hotel for their stay, with room service and activities included! I have no other pets, so they will have the place to themselves. Whether your dog is high energy and needs some stairs to let out their zoomies, or low energy and needs a cozy corner with some sunlight to bask in, my place can adapt to any pet’s needs. I will be sure to give your pets attention, cuddles, and playtime throughout the day, and they are allowed to sleep wherever they find the comfiest in the apartment. Any specified feeding/walking times will be honored and if there’s any deviation from the usual schedule for any reason, you will be notified in advance. Also happy to send you video/photo updates of their stay!

“Sydney was great with my cat. She did everything I had asked, and my cat clearly liked her a lot. Sydney even went the extra mile to clean her litter box out and was extremely flexible when my travel plans changed. Will definitely book again!”

“Allison has done 2 x drop in visits for my two Labs. She is always really responsive and has taken great care of Winnie and Harlow! Winnie had a leg injury but Allison had no problem with putting on a boot to protect her bandages when she went outside. I would recommend Allison!”

“Pamela has been wonderful and so accommodating. She was communicative about our nervous little guy and gave us peace of mind. We needed an extra visit and she was there for us! Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for friends and family for over 11 years, working with all breeds and sizes. I work remotely and don’t currently have a dog of my own, so I’m happy to give your pup lots of attention and care. My apartment building also has a rooftop dog park where dogs can safely enjoy off-leash time. Working remote gives me a lot of flexibility to fit in walks every few hours, as needed. Unless I am in a virtual meeting, I can attend to your fur baby right away. I live in an apartment building with a dedicated rooftop dog area that has a good-sized grassy space. I’m also happy to walk dogs to the nearest park, especially if they enjoy longer walks. I don’t have a dog of my own, and I only board one dog at a time (unless sibling pups), so your pup will have my full attention.

About: All my life I’ve had and have been surrounded by pets. My sister is a veterinarian and in high school I worked as animal tech intern at my local animal society. I’ve had extensive range of pets growing from horse, cats, dogs, birds to lizards. I find so much fascination in animals and all of the different personalities they can have. Also I’ve had two dachshunds in my lifetime so far and understand their strong personality and unique needs and care. I have a mini dachshund right now and she is just the sweetest! I understand and know what it's like when you have somewhere to go but need someone to watch your pets. And for some pets a boarding kennel is just not an option. Which is why I love Rover! I have one calm but friendly mini dachshund that gets along will with dogs (bonus points if it’s another dachshund), cats puppies, kitten, you name it! Taking care of a pet just means having a consistent routine. I always said pets keep you responsible. And responsible I am. No need to worry.

About: Hi there my name is Christine. My Fiance and I live in Northern Liberties looking to hang out with some furry companions! We are both dog lovers! We love dogs of all ages and sizes. I am also able to perform baths, light grooming, walking pets, taking pet to the park, feeding and giving medicine, brushing and playing with them too. In addition, I certainly have learned the do's and dont's of taking care of dogs. I guarantee I will be able to nurture you dog/s in your absence. I am flexible with the days and hours. I look forward to caring for your pets! We are available on weekends for both dog walking and boarding, which makes us a great option if you’re planning a getaway or just need a little extra help! We provide a clean, secured and calm environment where your dog will always be supervised and cared for like family. We are attentive to each dogs individual needs, routines, and comfort levels.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of friends/family since I was in middle school and would love the opportunity to continue this passion now that my work schedule is more flexible. I am also very active so going on long walks and making time for play is something that would be very easy for me. I would also be willing to follow any training routines that are practiced, as I understand the importance of consistency when it comes to developing new skills or maintaining pre-existing ones. I am currently working a remote job that makes it easier to go on midday walks. I am also comfortable with going on very early walks in the morning or in the evenings, as these are times where I would typically go to the gym, so it wouldn't be a difficult adjustment. The same goes for playtime. I typically provide care for pets in their own home, but if they are staying with me that is completely fine! I just ask that if there are any resources that your pets might need that they are brought with them, as I don't keep things like crates, toys, treats, food, e.t.c at home for guests.

“Chelsea was great with communication! She was super sweet and playful with my Cleo and made her less anxious the entire time I was away. I could tell she really cared for my baby like she was her own! I didn’t have to worry about anything with her stopping by. Highly recommend”

About: Hi I’m Lauren, a dog lover in the Philadelphia area willing to help out with walking and pet care! I grew up with a black lab for 14 years and also have a lot of experience with tons of breeds from boxers, to goldens, to St Bernard’s! I love interacting with new dogs and cats, going on walks, and staying active. I’m dedicated to making these experiences tailored towards your pet and your accommodations, and will do it with respect, communication and reliability! I work from home full time so I can have flexibility as far as scheduling. I also have time on weekends to fit pet care into my schedule. When visiting client's homes I always focus on respecting their space and of course their pets. I am also dedicated to keeping clients updated with locations/whereabouts and how the pet is doing while in my care. I am always there to help!

“Natalie is amazing. She is wonderful at communicating and came to the rescue last min with checking in on our cat Alice. She even brought packages in for me that were delivered! How incredible is she!!! Alice was also welcoming to her and could feel her care for her. Can’t wait for Natalie to check in on Alice again!”

“Bahisha did a great job with our kitty! :) Would definitely rebook her services. She was also very communicative when we had an issue with our water and our landlord needed information and she made sure to bring in all of our mail while we were away.”

Sara K.

“We had a great experience with Cali -- she was very communicative, proactive with reaching out prior to her visit, and most of all, she really cared for our little ones. TYSM Cali!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have taken care of pets since I was 8! I am also a physical therapist so I understand the importance of movement, activity and enrichment for a good quality life. I bring the same passion & care I have for patients with the pets I take care of. I have two cats of my own, who I treat like family. I look forward to meeting new pet friends! I currently work part time during the week near Rittenhouse area, and live in center city area. I am generally flexible for getting around the city area. I respect other peoples home like I would my own. I believe trust and respect is extremely important and what I strive to uphold. I’m happy to communicate and answer any questions to help ease any concerns.

“Alexandra was amazing with our kitties while we were away! So attentive and thoughtful. Would definitely hire her again and recommend to all :)”

“Patricia took wonderful care of our three cats, Siggi, Phyllis, and Butchie, while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and communicative, and her updates gave us great peace of mind throughout our trip. It was clear how much love and attention she gave our cats, and knowing they were in such kind and capable hands allowed us to fully enjoy our time away. We returned home to happy, well-cared-for pets and could not be more grateful. We highly recommend Patricia and would gladly trust her with our cats again. Thank you, Patricia, for your exceptional care and kindness!”

“Rachel was the best! Prompt, professional, responsive, happy, and so willing to go the extra mile for two dogs who were freaked out after a cross-country move and too much unfamiliar stuff and strange surroundings. They loved her immediately. Couldn't ask for a better dog (or human) friend.”
