“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.”
“Madeline is wonderful. She took great care of Chai and sent photo updates throughout the day. Her husband, Roman, is so kind as well. I look forward to the next time and I know Chai does too! Highly recommend!”
“Alex was great with Beluga! Super flexible, took plenty of pictures, it's evident that on a scorching hot day, Alex was able to provide Beluga with plenty of relaxing space to hang out and cool down :)”
“Nicole saved us when my sitter cancelled last minute. Meeko and Eevee were totally comfortable with her and she sent pictures as they settled in and on their walk. They had a great time. We would definitely pick her next time we are local!”
“I needed a last minute solution for a work meeting — i’m talking nearly less than 12hr notice last minute and Erin truly came through! She was so kind and accommodating and made me feel like Dexter would be well-cared for safe during his stay. I was so pleased with the regular and swift communication and updates on Dex and will absolutely be reaching out again. 💗🐾”
“Deena was very accommodating and good with my dog. This was my first time using Rover and she made the experience great! She took care of my little guy!!! Thank you”
“Rob was a great host to our pup, Whiskey. He was prompt and provided plenty of updates throughout the day. Whiskey came home tired after a full day of playing with other dogs. I’d recommend Rob for anyone looking for pet care in the area!”
“So glad we booked with Claudia! She truly goes above and beyond for our fur baby. She’s also super reliable and responsive. Makes leaving Noodle a little easier knowing she’s in good hands!”
“Lauren was great with Roxie! She was kind enough to help us out with short notice and made Roxie feel like she was right at home. Roxie is a senior pup with special needs”
“So happy we trusted Sloane with our 10-week-old puppy!! She loved Sloane’s frenchie and was so happy at the end of the day — I could tell she was cared for so well. Sloane was also very communicative about her progress throughout the day, which we appreciated so much. Thank you Sloane!”
“Barthalomew was super flexible and helpful with my dog Pumpkin. She had a great time with him and his dog. He was also responsive and easy to coordinate with. Will be using his services again”
About: Since I was a child, I grew up in a household where we rescued animals. My mother rescued hamsters, rabbits, dogs, and cats, and it surprised no one I followed in her footsteps. Aside from always being a fur-mom myself, I’ve fostered animals on my own accord, with personal finances, and found my rescues their forever homes. I’ve also partnered with a friend, who does run an actual rescue, to perform background checks on applicants. She’s allowed me to use her resources, where I’ve been able to receive affordable veterinary care for my foster visits. I’ve performed CPR on animals, administered medicine orally, and bottle fed newborn puppies and kittens. I’ve done the dirty work, too, where I’ve provided flea baths, removed ticks, and treated “diaper rash”. There’s actually photos I have, where I’m covered in Desitin rash cream. Honestly? There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do to save an animal. Or, to provide an animal love and comfort. I’m permanently working from home, so I have the ability to stay with your furry child all day and care for them. This includes lounging in the house, and I also have my backyard where we can all stretch our legs and play. I am a firm believer in safety first. I treat all animals as if they’re my own children, and I always consider their safety to be paramount. In my own home, I have a pet-friendly setup. This means, I don’t have plants that would be toxic to animals, and I ensure that all food is stored properly and away. There are no sharp objects in my house. When I’m sitting a cat or dog, I’m also always around to make sure they don’t get into anything dangerous. I make sure to use pet safe cleaning products. When I’m house sitting, I respect the rules of someone else’s home, and I ensure that I’m careful when entering and exiting any home (mine or someone else’s) so that no animals escapes. Before sitting for an animal in someone’s home, I have a lengthy conversation with them to go over expectations and the safety rules of the house. I follow these rules like they are my own. I will crate a dog if the pet parent requires it— and dogs and cats are allowed to roam freely in my home (under my watchful eye) if a crate isn’t needed. I will crate as requested.
“Glenda is so wonderful! She has become my go to sitter for my new rescue. She has been both flexible and communicative about coordinating scheduling and sends cute photo updates throughout the day.”
“Rosie had a wonderful day with Kanade. She kept her busy with fun activities and let me know how she was doing all day with adorable videos and pictures! I will definitely use Kanade again soon! ❤️”
“Londyn has been so great to our Penny! Penny is very anxious and has trouble sometimes in new spaces - Londyn has been patient and kind and made Penny feel comfortable”

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!!
Brigette was incredible! She is the first rover in Philly we’ve tried and we don’t have to look any further! Both our pups immediately loved and and felt comfortable. Brigette sent us tons of pics and updates - the best kind of sitter! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boys!
Madeline was absolutely wonderful with Pixel! She took great care of him and kept us updated throughout his stay with lots of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was very attentive, kind, and easy to communicate with. It was clear that Pixel was comfortable and well cared for. We truly appreciated all the updates and her thoughtful care. We would happily book with Madeline again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Jiayi was amazing! Her communication and care exceeded my expectations and she was willing to accept my little one for day care last minute! My pup loved her and she was so good with his potty/feed schedule as well. Definitely booking with her again in the future.
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!
Mara was incredible! She looked after our highly anxious dog for a full day, and our dog had an amazing time. This was the first time we left our dog with someone else, and she gave us frequent updates and worked with us to make sure our dog was set up for success
