I did a meet and greet with Samantha and her resident dog, and I immediately knew that my little puppy would be safe and in good hands with her. She understands dog behavior and we watched and made sure that my dog would be nice to her sweet dog. The next day I dropped my doggie for some doggy daycare and as to be expected, he seemed a little nervous when I left him, and Samantha reassured me that after a few minutes, he would be fine -and he was. Just like other reviewers have noted when I went to pick up my little guy he did not seem to want to go home with me. He let me know with his body language that he was very happy and having fun. Samantha and her partner are genuine “dog people”. My dog is very selective with men and he immediately showed affection towards Samantha‘s boyfriend. They have the knowledge and patience you’re looking for.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of different kinds of animals since I was a teenager. I worked at a zoo in England for a summer when I was a bit younger and from then, I grew a genuine passion for animals. 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, evening, and anytime in between. I do not have any pets that live with me so it will just be myself and your dog. I will usually only have 1 dog at a time unless the dogs already know each other or live together.

About: Hi! I am a dedicated dog lover with three years of experience caring for pups. I’ve spent the last few years pet-sitting for families and watching dogs for my friends, and I’ve learned that every dog is unique—some need a long run, while others just want a quiet spot to nap. I pride myself on being calm and patient. I know meeting someone new can be stressful for a dog, so I always take things at their pace to make sure they feel safe and secure from the moment we meet. My Routine & Activity I am a very active person and love staying moving. If you have a high-energy dog who loves to stay active, I’m the perfect match! I live right near a wonderful park, which is where I spend a lot of my time. My routine includes: Morning and afternoon runs: If your dog is a runner, I’d love to have a partner! Park walks: Plenty of fresh air and mental stimulation at the nearby park. Cuddle time: When we aren't out exploring, I am a big fan of cuddling and making sure your dog feels loved and relaxed. What I Offer Tailored care: I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure their specific needs and schedules are met. A safe environment: I provide a calm, safe space where your dog can feel right at home, whether they prefer lounging on the carpet or snuggling up. Plenty of attention: I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your furry family member the focus and affection they deserve while you’re away. I look forward to meeting your pup and providing a fun, safe, and loving experience for them! I work from home, which grants me significant flexibility throughout the day. This allows me to prioritize your dog’s needs, whether that means a quick potty break, a long walk in the nearby park, or a midday run for high-energy pups. In My Home When a dog stays with me, I focus on creating a seamless transition from their usual routine. Since I work from home, I am able to provide constant supervision and companionship. Your dog will have the freedom to lounge comfortably while I work, with plenty of breaks for play and cuddles. Being located right near a park means we can head out for fresh air and exercise whenever they need a boost of energy. In Your Home For drop-in visits or house sitting, my priority is maintaining the environment where your pet feels most secure. I stick closely to the schedule you’ve built, ensuring feedings, walks, and medications happen exactly on time. I use my work-from-home flexibility to spend quality time in your space, providing not just the essentials, but also the mental stimulation and physical activity—like runs or long walks—that keeps dogs happy while their owners are away. My Approach to Care Safety First: I always keep dogs on a leash during outings and stay alert to their body language. Active Engagement: I love going on runs and walks to ensure high-energy dogs get their heart rate up. Open Communication: I provide regular photo updates and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is having a great time.

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.

About: I've had dogs for over 15 years. Both of my dogs were about 60 lb pitbulls, but I have cared for tiny dogs and larger dogs, as well. I think of dogs as people and pay close attention to their needs and likes. I love taking them on walks and to the park (if you are comfortable). My dogs used to love going to the big open parks in NJ. I am currently without my own dog and would love to care for yours. I am currently home for most of the day on most days and can easily adjust my schedule to care for your dog. I have a dog gate if your dog does better confined to a smaller space, and am also ok with them being free throughout the house. I have a rowhouse in South Philly. There are no other pets in the house and I do not smoke. I am fine with dogs on furniture and sleeping on the bed with me. I am used to keeping food and other temptations out of reach. I love snuggling and playing and going on walks with dogs.

I made this appointment last minute and had the best service I woukd definitely use thisnsitter again. First we made plans for a meet and greet with her German shepherd at a dog park to let her dog and my dog mingle and it was fine. I was able to communicate efficiently, clearly and quickly the following day. I was able to receive updates on both my pups and they came back happy and just as pretty. The pups loved Kimberly and they were comfortable enough to nap and play all day. Thank you for being such a great host, having a lovely home, a great set up to walk the dogs and take them to the dog park. If you need someone attentive , smart and friendly and convenient I woukd highly suggest booking with Kim!!

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!

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
