Brianna was the best. We had great communication before, during and after the drop-in. The photos were unexpected and gave me peace of mind. And thank you for doing this last minute. I don’t know what I would have done without you. Will be seeing you again!

Marilyn S. Was superb! She was warm, & friendly with my dogs, very professional, punctual, & followed directions as requested. She went above & beyond in some cases. I was very unsure at first to use a service & having a stranger come into my home to care for my dogs but I was immediately at ease after her first visit. She sent picture updates and my dogs looked very relaxed and I could enjoy my time away. She was a life saver. I highly recommend.

I feel so lucky to have found Emily for Daisy! Daisy is a rescue and has had a rough go of it. She really loves Emily and has made a connection which she does not easily do.

Amber traveled to check in on our feline babies and it was much appreciated! We had to go out of town on pretty short notice for an ailing family member and it was great getting updates during each visit to know our family at home was safe.

Julie did a wonderful job looking after our cat, Felix. He was shy with her initially, which we expected. But he warmed up to her as she fed him and played with him. Julie provided great photos and videos, which went a long way to comfort us pet parents missing our baby!

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s what makes me happiest. I’ve walked, played with, and cared for pups of all sizes, from energetic huskies to tiny yorkies. Every tail wag and belly rub brings me so much joy. When I’m with dogs, I’m truly in my happiest place, and I treat each one like family. I work a 9–5 job Monday through Friday, but caring for dogs is truly the highlight of my day. Before and After work and on weekends, I’m available for walks, playtime, and plenty of love. Spending time with dogs never feels like work—it’s what makes me happiest, and I always make room for it in my routine. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I’ll walk them, feed them, play with them, and give them plenty of attention. Need a bath? I’m happy to help with that too! Your pet’s comfort and joy are always my priority!

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, primarily cats but dogs and fish as well. Most other animals I put extensive research into the care of when considering owning them, and I would be more than happy to use that knowledge to give your animals the best care possible. I am currently working on continuing my education, so having a way to cover my bills that allows me a flexible schedule doing something I love seemed the perfect fit. Raising my own cat, Tabitha, from a kitten to be a very social, outgoing, sweet girl who loves going for harness walks has left me with a healthy appreciation of how well it works if you treat an animal with respect and expect the same. That being said, house rules come first, and I will make sure to enforce them in your absence.

About: I’ve had the joy of raising and caring for a Cavachon for two years, which gave me hands-on experience with the daily ups and downs of dog parenthood—feeding, training, walks, and lots of playtime. Due to personal reasons, the pup now lives with my former partner, but I truly cherish that time and all the lessons it taught me about patience, consistency, and unconditional love. I’ve always dreamed of owning another dog of my own again soon, but in the meantime, I’m grateful for the opportunity to care for yours. I know how hard it is for pet parents to leave their pups at home, and I can never resist those puppy eyes either. That’s why I promise to give your dog the love, comfort, and companionship they deserve while you’re away. I’m a recent college graduate from Drexel University and currently searching for a full-time role, which gives me extra flexibility in my schedule. Caring for dogs is not just a side hustle for me—it’s a passion. I have plenty of time during weekdays and on weekends to devote my full attention to your pup, making sure they get the love, playtime, and exercise they deserve. Drop-in visit might works the best for me:) Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first. I live in a safe environment and can adjust easily to your pup’s needs—whether that means crate training, sticking to their feeding schedule, or providing lots of play and snuggles. Having cared for a Cavachon myself, I understand the ups and downs of pet parenting, and I know how important it is for you to feel at ease while away. I’ll make sure your furry friend feels loved, secure, and happy until you’re back home.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and love every type breed and size. I am the go to friend when a friend needs someone to come let their dogs out or watch them over a weekend. I have a 3 year old Pitt/Staffy that I rescued when he was very young. I work 4 days a week, which I will typically block off, but am home several times for walks and care. If needing days covered outside my availability, given it would be a good fit and pickup/dropoff works with my schedule, I can try to accommodate. I block off any time I’ll be out of town and mainly just chill at home with my own pitty otherwise. We go on daily walks for the needed exercise and energy burn. My apartment is smaller but we have a great neighborhood to walk in. We have Pennypack park I go to for walks frequently and visit other outdoor dog parks in Jersey once a weekend. I have an extra crate if it’s needed and lots of toys.

As usual, Bill took such good care of our Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. They are very low key but they demand a lot of love and Bill gives them plenty of that. He takes care of my dogs and I can go away on vacation with peace of mind and not worry about the dogs.. that means a lot to me.

Rosabella, I have used Rover for 6 years. Many sitters did a good job. However, u were the most consistent in caring for our kitties and communicating with me. I hate leaving them alone but u made me feel they were happy as my to scarty cats can be. Thank you for a job. Well done even to the end.

About: Hi! My name is Nicole and I have loved animals my whole life. I have been a veterinary technician for ten years. I am currently working at an emergency veterinary hospital. I love animals of all sizes so I will be willing to watch your other furry or scaled babies as well while you’re away. I will bathe your dogs and clip their nails if requested. I will also administer any medication that they need while you are away. I am proficient in cpr and other emergency life saving procedures. I know how stressful it can be to leave your babies while you are on vacation or even just away for the day but I will treat your babies like my own while they are in my custody. I work weekend nights so I am available to be with your pets all day and can take them with me to work if necessary at night. I have been taking care of animals in emergency situations for over 10 years and have ample experience in all situations no matter what happens.

From the first visit to the last set of photos, Tina has been absolutely amazing. This was the first time I’d been away from the cats for more than two days, so I was a bit worried. The first pictures Tina sent were her and the cats playing/nuzzling. I was able to rest easy, knowing that I’d get my daily pictures, and that the kitties were happy. I will be using her again next time I go on vacation.

About: I have had 3 dogs my whole life and love to take care of them! I have 3 dogs, 1 cat, and 2 bunnies of my own and love them so much! I have been around all types of dogs/cats and I am great with walking and giving them love! I have experience in all ages of animals, including puppies and senior dogs. I put the needs of any animal before my own! I’m currently a college student but I’m home for the summer and on my breaks. I can work any time during the day and will always let people know my availability ahead of time. I have a fenced yard and I have 3 fur babies to keep your animal company if needed. I can easily crate your animal if needed, but would prefer to be at your pets home because of how many animals I have in my own home.

Amber’s commitment to caring for my dogs cannot be overstated. Very few people in her position would have left the comfort of their homes to come out and take care of my dogs. She worked not only with me, but also with my sister, to care for four dogs in very harsh and potentially dangerous conditions due to the weather. Despite my unique situation due to a family emergency, she was incredibly flexible with rescheduling and accommodating adjustments when needed. She was responsive to my concerns throughout her care and even got back to me well outside of what I would consider normal business hours, especially since I was unable to respond during the day. Mind you this was on fairly short notice as well. I cannot recommend Amber enough.

I cannot say enough great things about Emily! This was our first time booking with her and everything was seamless. She came for a meet and greet with our crew about a month ahead, and we communicated a few days before her sitting. Pictures and notes were posted daily. Even when I occasionally didn’t have cell service, no worries. Emily treated our pets like family, which allowed us to relax 😎
