“Kelly has been the absolute best petsitter for my dog, Roo! She's caring, attentive, and sends the best updates/photos. Roo and Scoots have become great friends! Kelly is so flexible and has been available for early mornings and late nights with my hectic work schedule. Roo has separation anxiety and Kelly is very understanding of her needs. We're unfortunately leaving Philly and wish we could take Kelly and Scoots with us, we highly recommend!”
“I was really nervous about leaving my 6 pound chihuahua with a new person while I went to work during the day. With 3 of 4 legs not working, and a weak bladder, Pinky is quite fragile. Her stay with Madeline was wonderful. She coaxed her to eat, separated her from all dogs except her little terrier, and was forgiving of Pinky’s incontinence. While I hope tomorrow at Pinky’s neurologist visit we can get some answers and Pinky will be strong enough to be left alone after the holidays, if we need daycare again we will definitely be back.”
“So happy with the entire experience! Samantha took such good care of my Banjo, sent pictures the entire day and kept me updated on how he was doing. I would definitely recommend and will keep her in mind if I need someone to watch Banjo in the future!”
“Amanda is an amazing pet sitter who really showed dedication and care to making sure my puppy Willow was comfortable, and keeping up with her training. I would highly recommend her!”
“Georgilin and her husband have been a godsend! They are SO dependable. They genuinely love my dog as if she's apart of their family. They're excited to see her coming and sad to see her going. My dog just loves them and is always so excited when she see's them. Everyone's dog should be able to have an experience just like the one they provide. IMO Georgilin and her husband are hands down the best sitters in the Philadelphia area.”

Schuylkill Southwest dog parents share their Rover experiences
Samba is such a picky eater and hadn’t touched his food the night before or that morning. When I asked Paula if she had some carrots, she not only gave him some but even added chicken broth to encourage him. She was so thoughtful and caring—it really made Samba feel loved and comfortable.
Claudia was amazing taking care of Miko during the day. She asked all the right questions to get to know him better and know what to expect and how to treat and approach him. Great communication at all times proactively sending multiple pictures and keeping us updated. Looks like Miko had a great day chilling with Claudia and getting spoiled. :) Thanks for everything! Will definitely leave our boy with you next time we are in the Philly area.
Aeryn was superb! From accommodating me with pick up and drop off times to being more than willing to keep my handsome boy on his daily routine. My pup left and came back the happiest I’ve ever seen him after being with a sitter. Aeryn is truly amazing when it comes to caring for your furry children 🥰. Will definitely be booking with her again!
Anri has been a fantastic daytime sitter for Vinny! From the moment we arrived, it was clear she created a safe, welcoming space for dogs to play and relax. Vinny immediately hit it off with her dog, and each morning he was excited to head back. Anri made sure he got regular walks and plenty of time to play. Highly recommend!
Hard to put into words how grateful I am for Serena. She truly goes above and beyond for the dogs she watches. I happened to come across her while looking for a one time sitter, for my usual was busy, and it was the best thing to ever happen to me. She quickly identified & worked with my 4 month old puppy on behavioral issues. She then proceeded to spend an hour of her own time when I picked my puppy up to talk with me and ease my mind over my pups behavioral issues. She gave me advice, resources, and information—but most importantly, she was simply there for me in an overwhelming time. Many updates and pictures were sent along the way -> communication 10/10. I cannot recommend her enough!!! She’s caring, educated, and extremely passionate about what she does.
