“Lauren was absolutely wonderful. She took great care of Lizzie and Archie. Lizzie has an ear infection and was testy but Lauren just stayed the course and Lizzie warmed up by the end of the day. Lauren even gave her her medicine. She’s a responsible young woman and I will definitely call on her again.”

“Ellen was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She was attentive, responsible, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt comfortable, safe, and loved while I was away. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious my dog was not only well taken care of, but truly happy in her care. When I came home, everything was perfect—and my dog was calm and content, which says it all. I would 100% trust Ellen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and dedicated dog sitter!”

“Hope is such a thoughtful sitter. Really appreciated feeling safe leaving my beloved dog with her for the day! Communicative, kind, and reliable. Will definitely book again!”

“Did an amazing job! Updated us daily with pictures and comments of our pets while we were away. Trustworthy and responded promptly to all questions. Have already re booked!”

“So happy to have found Sydney to stay with my dog while I was away for a week! Everything went smoothly and she provided daily updates and photos. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

“Rowan was wonderful with my cat, Davey! She took such great care of him, shared regular updates, and also took great care of my space, from the photos and updates Rowan shared, I could tell Davey felt super comfortable and enjoyed Rowan’s company! Highly recommend!”

“Angela is an amazing petsitter. She cares deeply about your pets and notices changes in their behavior. She always sends pictures throughout the day to let you know your kitties are doing well. She keeps your house tidy and is highly punctual and dependable.”

“Jennifer is a very nice person and great pet sitter. My travel plans changed and she was flexible, made notes of what had been done and when, and when I came home, my pet was very happy.”

“We had SUCH a great experience with Zach! He was super responsive, provided great pictures and updates of our pup each day, and clearly took care of him as if he was his own dog. Would highly recommend and plan on using again in the future! He also left our house so clean and tidy which was an unexpected bonus!”


“Leah stayed with my 100lb pittie over the weekend and she was absolutely a delight to work with. She sent us multiple updates and pictures a day, and took our guy on lots of walks which we appreciate so much! We came home to a clean house and happy pup! We will definitely be using Leah again!”

“Emily is amazing. My dog can be extremely stubborn when she doesn’t want to go out but Emily was undeterred. Winnie also hates thunderstorms and there were several while Emily was watching her and Emily was so attentive to keeping Winnie calm during the storms. Emily also sent great photos and regular updates. I felt super at ease knowing Winnie was in Emily’s hands!”

“Luke was able to take care of my senior dog on super short notice, and they immediately connected. It was great to know my pup had good company. Luke's got jokes too. 10/10 no notes”

“We rebooked with Rebecca for a quick over night. She is so wonderful to our pets and always leaves the house clean when we return. We will continue to book her in the future for dog, cat, and house sitting!”
“Evyn was great with Doi. Doi was a bit sick last week, but she took care of him as per the instructions and even gave him the meds. Doi was definitely comfortable with her. I will definitely recommend her for dog sitting needs.”


“Emily was great and I’m very happy I hired her to watch out two dogs this past weekend. She communicated well the entire time and was very easy going, responsive and responsible. I completely trusted her to stay the weekend with them and really appreciate how good of a job she did. I would absolutely hire her again.”

“Zoe stepped in for us when a sitter had to cancel last-minute and she was excellent! It was our first time leaving our pup with someone overnight and it was a great success. Our dog has bad separation anxiety and we were so grateful Zoe was able to hang with him the entire time we were away. She followed our instructions and was easy to communicate with, punctual, and very kind. We’d absolutely hire her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Payson! I’m a compassionate and dependable animal lover with 5 years experience caring for pets. I have an excitable and loving 3 year old springer spaniel at home with my parents and grew up with pets in the home. I (very sadly) don’t have any pets in my apartment here in Philly, so I am eager to spend time with all animals and love on them. I will ensure your pet feels safe and happy. I’m naturally organized and reliable, and I’ll keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always know how your beloved pet is doing while you’re away. We will go for long walks/ have lots of snuggles. I’m excited to meet you and see if I’m a good fit for your needs! I have always provided pet care to families wherever I have lived and am looking to do the same here in Philly. I moved here a few weeks back and am eager to meet all the lovely animals in the area. Unfortunately I cannot have pets in my apartment— so I’d prefer to come to your place for overnight stays. I am happy to care for plants and any other household needs while I am in your home.

Natalie house sat for us for 2 weeks while we were abroad. She took excellent care of our two cats, one of whom is senior and requires medication/asthma inhaler. She took great care of our home and was super communicative throughout the entire trip. The cats were healthy and happy upon our return. I highly recommend her, she is a kind and laid back person who was perfect for the job!!!
What a pleasure it was to meet Amanda and have her stay in our “home”. We are traveling and Amanda came to the campground (with just two days notice!) and watched our three pups. She walked them, cared for them, and shared updates with us. She gave us suggestions on what to see in Philadelphia. We were impressed with her kindness. We highly recommend Amanda for your pets!

Holy cow, Rebecca is amazing. She always takes such good care of my husky Stevie and is perfect at dealing with the energy and attitude that my dog throws at her. Stevie can get very anxious when I leave her behind, but I can rest assured that she’s not missing me when Rebecca comes to stay. On this fateful stay, Stevie got sick and was having accidents all over the apartment. Rebecca was such a trooper and helped my girl through her sickness, while also cleaning and taking care of my apartment and furniture. She sent plenty of updates, pictures, and even ran out to buy supplies. When things were looking a little dicey, she consulted me before taking Stevie to my vet, and got me on the phone so I could talk to the vet. She took detailed notes and explained the meds back to me when I came home. I can’t imagine having anyone else take care of my dog after the lengths Rebecca went to. I cannot recommend Rebecca enough, she was so gracious and kind to me and my dog throughout the entire poop storm. Thank you a million times over!!!

I think this is the third(maybe fourth?) time that Audrey has pet/ house sat for us, and I can say we'd definitely be happy to have her watch the fur(and scaley) kids any time. She's great with communication, sends pictures of the kids, and has handled any speedbumps(usually on our end) without any issues. Super happy that we found Audrey on here and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter and piece of mind when you have to be away from your fur kids.

Dan was terrific! He house sat and watched our two pugs for four nights and then coordinated "hand off" to a friend of ours while we were away. He kept in regular contact, sent lots of pictures, and left everything as he found it. We'd be happy to use him again.

Jovelle was absolutely fantastic. She sent twice‑daily updates with great photos, which kept me completely at ease while I was away. Loki looked happy, relaxed, and so well cared for in every single check‑in. Her communication was consistent, thoughtful, and reliable. When I got home, my apartment was in excellent shape — clean, organized, and exactly how I left it. It’s clear Jovelle takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I highly recommend her and will definitely book again.

Emily was wonderful! She was able to accommodate our request last minute and spent the whole day with Panda. She kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Panda seemed very comfortable with her, and we really appreciated how attentive and reliable she was. We’d absolutely book with Emily again!

Ellen was wonderful with my senior dog, Reuben! He has quite a few quirks and can be a little particular, so I really appreciated how patient, attentive, and caring she was with him. She took the time to understand his routine and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for while I was out of the country. I came home to a happy pup and felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Ellen for both walks and pet sitting!

Lauren was absolutely wonderful. She took great care of Lizzie and Archie. Lizzie has an ear infection and was testy but Lauren just stayed the course and Lizzie warmed up by the end of the day. Lauren even gave her her medicine. She’s a responsible young woman and I will definitely call on her again.

This is my second time using Erin and she continues to do a great job. We get tons of amazing photos of our pups relaxed and happy and it makes our trips much more enjoyable knowing they're in good hands. We also had a last minute schedule change that Erin was able to accommodate, no questions asked. We're very glad we found her on Rover and will absolutely be booking her again!

Darina was absolutely wonderful! She stayed with Petunia for multiple nights and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. My biggest priority was knowing that Petunia was safe, happy, and well cared for, and Darina went above and beyond. She sent two incredibly detailed check-ins every day with plenty of pictures, kept our very active and energetic pup entertained, and made sure she got long walks to match her energy. She also watered our plants and even helped with our laundry, which was such a thoughtful surprise. We came home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for home. We would absolutely trust Darina with Petunia again!

Jess is wonderful! Not only did she take great care of our boys, she went above and beyond to clean the house before she left - even washing the bathmat and cleaning the toilet. I came home to two very happy pets and a spotless house. Jess is also a great communicator and sent pictures every day. We will definitely book again!

Grace was wonderful- she stayed with my pup during our 10 day travel and took great care of her! Grace made her feel comfortable right away, took her on walks, played and snuggled. Our pup loved spending time with Grace! She left our home in perfect condition and had great communication. We’ll definitely re-book with Grace anytime we need!
