About: Hi, there! I'm Alisia. I just recently moved to Grays Ferry, Philadelphia from West Palm Beach, Florida where i was born and raised. I'm very reliable and dependable! My home is located around the corner from the Lanier dog park. I do have two friendly doggies that love other dogs and to keep your pets company. This is all I do now, and I love it! My only job is pet care. I previously worked 5 1/2 years at a Full-service pet boarding and daycare facility. I have given medicine,diabetes shots, accommodated special needs doggies and special diets. If your baby needs their own space we have an empty room they can make their own sanctuary. If your dog needs to be crated we can do that also. I understand and respect that it is a struggle to leave your pet in the care of a new person. I will do everything I can to make both you and your pet feel comfortable in my care. I make sure to keep their water bowls full, and their tummies happy. I am immune to the puppy dog eyes and meows, and I fall hard for tummy rubs! I am available 7 days a week and very flexible. For added peace of mind, I absolutly love to provide owners with regular photo updates. Your dog becomes part of the family, not just a guest. Also I provide bottled water at all times. Thanks so much for booking with me Alisia🐾💓 I offer open availability seven days a week, I'm very flexible making pet care the main focus of my schedule. Whether it's overnight boarding or daytime daycare, your pet gets my full attention. I provide constant supervision and comfortable spaces for relaxing. I create a safe, and loving environment where your pets feel at home during their stay. I can promise you that.🐾🫶🏽

We will definitely be repeating with Amy - the whole experience was great!”

First time using Angela, we did a meet and greet welcomed usb into her home. Jax stayed with Angela and her sweet pup for 24 hours and he had a wonderful time. Jax takes medicine and Angela had no problem getting Jax to take his meds. Highly recommend Angela for your dog sitting needs.

Tim was a great sitter - so flexible and accommodating and responsive to me, the dog 'parent', and was obviously the same with his furry charges, as they returned home fully contented. I hope he will be available the next time I need boarding. I recommend him without reservation.

This was my first time boarding my dog, and she put me totally at ease. It’s very obvious why Jennifer has so many stellar reviews. I will be using her services again and I recommend her highly.

I have no idea what Zyiana did, but when I picked up Cinnamon, she didn't seem to miss me. It was like she spent a weekend with someone she knew. Plus, Zyiana was very communicative when it came to Cinnamon's stay, which makes rebooking Zyiana in the future a top choice.

We can't say enough nice things about Casey! We needed a sitter for Lexi over an extended weekend and had to book one last minute. Right from the beginning of our conversations, Casey was quick to respond and very open to coordinating a meet & greet that was convenient for us, which we definitely appreciated. I had not even gotten home from dropping Lexi off at Casey's before we begun receiving pictures of her settling in, which every dog owner can truly appreciate. Throughout Lexi's stay, Casey continued to send us lovely picture/video updates, which provided a great source of comfort for us while we were away. Additionally, she never hesitated to ask questions about Lexi's care/routine, showing a true interest in ensuring Lexi was safe and comfortable. It was exceptionally clear to us that Lexi was being pampered and showered with affection, beyond what we have normally come to expect from a sitter. We are so happy to have found Casey and will most definitely be booking her again when possible. If you are looking the perfect sitter for your pet, you have found her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Schuylkill home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Schuylkill.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Schuylkill sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
