I am so thankful for Michelle. She is a quality person who took amazing care of my sweet dog on an extended vacation. She is a wonderful communicator, reliable and most importantly took exceptional care of my dog. It allowed me to have a stress free vacation knowing that my dog had a walk and got out in the bitter cold and my elderly parent was not faced with that chore. Thank you Michelle. I am so glad to have met you you’re truly a blessing.

About: I’ve always had a dog or cat in my home! Growing up we always had a Golden Retriever :) My most recent dogs were two senior Chihuahua sisters I adopted and one Olde English Bulldog. They have all crossed the rainbow bridge and though I’m not ready to get another pet, I miss having them in my life. One of my seniors had diabetes so I’m trained at administering insulin as well. I’m a stay at home mom of two little boys I share with their dad, though when I have dogs stay with me they stay with their father. For boarding, I live in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of other dogs and great sidewalks for strolls or power walks if needed. I enjoy going for daily long walks myself would love the company. For walks at your home, I never skimp on time outside or if weather doesn’t permit, extra fun and love inside.

About: - I’ve been employed at a veterinary hospital for a few years and I am trained to take care of all types of animals - Trained to administer medication of all kinds (injections, oral syringes, manually pilling, etc.) - Trained to evaluate new dogs to see if they are good to play in larger settings with 30+ dogs - Very patient with animals of all temperaments - All I want is for you and your pets to be happy and comfortable :) I work on a rotating bi weekly schedule, meaning some weeks I work 6/7 days and other weeks I am in 4/7 days. I don’t do anything outside of work so getting back to the animals/ taking breaks to see them throughout work is expected on my end and will not be an issue. I have a fenced in yard at my aunts house where I live with her and her Jack Russell Pug who is shy, but good with other dogs. I have an open yard at my parents home (Schwenksville PA) with lots of room to run and play under supervision. I also have a Staffordshire Terrier at my parents house who loves to run and play with other dogs while being supervised.

About: I have had dogs since I was little and love all sizes and breeds. I worked at a vet for 4 years with lots of experience in walks, boarding and medications. I have always loved finding ways to keep my pup happy and busy and will do the same for your pup- of any life styles. I work from home full time and take my pup out multiple times a day, including a short walk at lunch as well. I have one dog and very used to active life styles including feeding schedules, walks and medications! It’s important to me that your dogs can continue the life style you want to give them! I will never let your dog off their leash outside, and will ensure their collars and harnesses are secure on walks outside as well. And I will keep them active inside if they do not enjoy walks outside or sitting on my patio!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, caring for four dogs and a cat, so being around pets has always been second nature to me. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, whether it’s for a walk, check-in, or overnight care. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am home for the summer and have availability up to August. I will be working part time and will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have a friendly 6 year old dog at home with many toys beds and crates. i am experienced, as i’ve been pet sitting for the past two years and grew up with 5 pets.

Emi-Lu is definitely the person you want caring for your dog when you are gone. She is thorough, detailed, kind, and compassionate. She even texted me this morning to make sure she could find my key and to ask how long our dog likes to walk. Emi-Lu is the best sitter on Rover!!

About: Hi there, I’m Keira! As a lifelong athlete and nature enthusiast, I bring high energy and reliability to every pet I care for. I specialize in both walking and running services, tailoring every outing to your dog’s specific activity needs, whether they require a high-intensity trail run or a patient neighborhood stroll. Having owned and worked with large breeds my whole life, I am confident handling big dogs and managing various temperaments with ease. I’ve been walking dogs for over a decade and have maintained several long-term clients who trust me with their pets' well-being. My experience also includes pet sitting, where I provide an attentive and caring environment for your animals while you’re away. I’m passionate about exploring local trails/neighborhoods and ensuring every dog gets the exercise and mental stimulation they need to thrive. I can't wait to meet your pet and give them the dedicated attention they deserve! Right now, my schedule is wide open and I am all in on pet care! While I am currently taking the time to acquire my EMT certification for a future career in firefighting, my days are fully dedicated to animal care. This gives me maximum, highly flexible availability seven days a week to accommodate your dog's routine, whether they need high-energy trail runs, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I care for pets like I would my own, bringing a high level of attentiveness, kindness, empathy, and friendliness to every interaction. Safety and situational awareness are my top priorities. I strive to make sure every pet feels secure, respected, and completely at ease while under my supervision.

About: I’ve been around fur babies my entire life, caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I’m comfortable using the intuitive understanding of their needs and behaviors that I have gained throughout my years to adapt my care to match each dog’s unique temperament and routine. I’ve also spent time caring for senior pets for family members, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentleness they require, whether that means maintaining routines, supporting mobility, or offering calm companionship. On top of that, I’ve raised and cared for my own stubborn shih tzu, which taught me a lot about patience and how to handle strong-willed dogs with both structure and love. What sets my care apart from most, I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach, I focus on truly knowing each pet as if they were my own: learning their personality, respecting their routine, and creating a safe, stress-free environment where they feel secure and loved. Clients can expect reliable communication, updates, and the peace of mind that their pet is not just being watched but cared for. As a college student home for the summer, pet care fits seamlessly into a very open and flexible schedule. With ample availability throughout the day and week, there is plenty of time to provide attentive, consistent care. This flexibility allows for adapting to each pet’s routine and ensuring they receive the time and attention they deserve. Creating a comfortable and trustworthy environment is always the top priority. Care is tailored to each pet’s routine to keep things familiar and stress-free, with close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions provided. Walks are always done with safety in mind, using secure leashing and awareness of surroundings. In a client’s home, respect for both the space and the pet’s comfort is key: keeping things clean, calm, and consistent while maintaining open communication. The goal is to ensure every pet feels secure, cared for, and happy, while giving owners absolute peace of mind.

Taylor has been fantastic! She is very prompt, great with our dog, and we’ve had zero issues with any of the walks. Most importantly, our dog absolutely loves her. This was our second time booking with Taylor, and this time she handled 2 walks a day for 11 days without any problems. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!
