“Tricia is amazing! She was more than willing to do a meet and greet. She followed up right away confirming all the details of our big hard to deal with GSD. She was on time and provided detailed feedback after every session. I’d recommend her to anyone!”


“Bri did such a great job with Basil! This was our first time using Rover and she made me feel so at ease. She always made sure to send pictures and update me on how Basil was doing. Would definitely book her again!”

“Elizabeth is so wonderful with our dog Beau. She was very mindful of the city heat this week during walkies and kept our dog safe, cool and hydrated. She is the best!”


About: I love dogs and cats but am unfortunately not allowed to have them at the building where I live, so I get my fill of wags and purrs taking care of other people's pets. I'm extremely reliable and have a very flexible schedule. I have lots of experience including with large and active dogs. I live in the South Philly area. I do not drive but I have no problem traveling via Septa or regional rail. I'm flexible and available most days or evenings with a little notice. I am available for overnight stays with some notice. Last minute pop ins or walkings are usually not a problem, either. I can visit your home to take your dog for a walk, or pop in to feed the cats and clean the litter box, whatever works best for youband your furry friends. I can house sit reliably, and have plenty of experience.
“Aleksandra was awesome to work with, and we will absolutely book with her again! She took great care of our fur babies while we were away and was very communicative with us about how everything was going and anything she thought we needed to know. The pets loved her and everything was well looked after when we got home. Highly recommend!”


About: I grew up having an energetic beagle so I’m used to matching a dog’s high energy level. I now usually dog/housesit for family friends and volunteer to walk the dogs from Doggiestyles pet store. Just graduated from Drexel University so I have a lot of time throughout the summer, especially during day hours. Very flexible to match client’s schedule I usually follow the requests of the client and will check in the dogs every now and then to make sure they’re okay. I would check to make sure they’re not doing anything they’re not supposed to, but also keep them entertained if they seem bored
“Sydney was an absolute trooper getting the harness on my dog. Penny was very skittish about someone else putting it on her, but they were super patient and had a successful walk! They also paid great attention to the house alarm system/lock and had no issues with following directions. Would highly recommend for their calm, patient, and caring attitude!”


“Jackie was amazing with my dog on her walks. She asked all the right questions in the meet and greet, sent great pictures and Reyna seemed to have a great time on her walks despite the snow. Will definitely book again!”


“Kristen has been working with my dog Petey for about three weeks. Petey has very bad anxiety, and she's been very patient and responsive with him, mostly in-home visits, but a few walks when he's ready. Kristen leaves detailed notes on her cards and messages, so I feel relieved to know he's in good hands.”

“Natalie is the best! She takes great care of our girl taking her on long walks and making sure she pees and poops, she leaves little report cards after each walk which are fun to read and she is super reliable !”

“Lee filled in at the last minute and took great care of our 2 dogs. Would highly recommend and will hopefully have them walk our dogs again in the future!”

About: (Ask about my promotional link from Rover!) I've walked dogs since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. If it has a fur and four paws, I love it. If you are looking for someone to offer your dog a walk, pee break, and play time during the day while you're at work, then reach out. About me: I have 3 cats of my own. I've had terriers, corgis, bird dogs, and mutts since I was a child. Our last dear doggie passed away at the age of 16 last year. When I was a teacher, I ran a humane society volunteer program for teenagers. Both personally and professionally, I've worked to care for and love animals my whole life. I am a consultant who works from home. I walk dogs and check in on pets during the day because I have a flexible work schedule. I am a responsible and careful dog walker. I'll use your leash, poo bags, harnesses, toys, food, and treats. Your dog has a routine and I respect it. I find that dogs enjoy it when I can stick to their routine. I follow the rules that you set for your pet.
“Kaydee deserves more then the 5 stars alotted. She has made our family feel safe and at ease in taking care of our pup. He’s a large German Shepherd with a lot of energy and you can tell he loves her. I get a picture, update and message each day when she walks him. We are so happy and so is our boy!”
“Nicholas is great. He has been great with both my dogs. One of my dogs is reactive and just got back from a month long board and train and has been great helping me keep her on her training. They are always in great moods when I come home.”

We’ve used Lily three times now and have had a great experience every time! She’s reliable, accommodating, and takes great care of our dog. We really appreciate how responsive and flexible she is, and we feel completely comfortable having her walk our pup. We’ll definitely continue booking with Lily!

Sabin is fantastic. He is punctual, responsible, detail-oriented, and loves our dog so much. We’ve been using him for dog walking, doggy day care, and dog boarding. Our dog’s behaviors were even better after she spent eight days with him than before. I can tell he took such lovely care for her by how she acts. He is on time and communicative for dog walks, and flexible with us regarding timing for doggy day care. The humans AND dog here really appreciate Sabin!!
