Rachel was absolutely wonderful taking care of our cats while we were away. She kept us updated with thoughtful check-ins and made us feel completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. It’s clear she truly cares, and that meant a lot to us. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

I'm very happy with my experience with Tricia, who took excellent care of my cat, Pedro. Punctual and attentive, Tricia ensured Pedro was well-fed and entertained. Her communication, including messages, pictures, and videos during visits, provided peace of mind. I'm delighted with the service, would gladly choose Tricia again, and highly recommend her to friends 😻💙

Hazel did a really great job watching our cat and our dog. Our dog is reactive and has lots of energy and Hazel listened to our instructions and made sure he was safe and well taken cared of. She also made sure our house was cared for. I’ve had sitters in the past that just watched our pets and came home to a home that felt dirty and uncared for but it was nice to come home to a house that was clean and not a complete disaster from the pets. She sent photos and kept us updated on them both. Will definitely book her again when we go out of town

We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter for our two cats. Their medical needs have gotten more complicated, requiring more care while we’re away. I was nervous about this, but Holden was very reliable, responsible, and communicated very well throughout this process. I look forward to booking with him again in the future! I would absolutely recommend him.

I was very nervous about leaving my cat for a couple days and ended up interviewing a couple sitters. It was very important to me that whomever watched Reese was familiar with cats. I felt very comfortable speaking with Brittney and so glad I ended up booking with her. My 2 visit booking turned into every day with last minute changes that she was able to accommodate. She was able to help with certain situations and keep me up to date with how Reese was doing. I will use Brittney again!

About: I've had dogs and cats throughout my life and love taking care of them. I currently have a black lab named Lucca he's the best boy and his brother Bean the cat. I work from home and am looking for some extra cash for the upcoming wedding, super excited! But in this economy.... My schedule is flexible so let me know if you need a walk, or my other services! I am available for walks in South Philly and house sitting to take care of the furry friends. I work from home and I would mostly just be working on my laptop if staying over. Let me know how I can help, we can set up a quick meet up to get started! While I am not certified, I can handle giving medication as needed. Honestly I'm only qualified for pills in cheese/PB or other oral medication. But it doesn't bother me to do so as needed. Happy to follow basic training or care requirements to make sure everyone stays well behaved even when mom and dad are gone. Please make sure to review my specific services, availability, cancellation and other details below. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family! I am working from home and have a flexible schedule as I am a 3D digital artist working on my laptop and can adjust my day to work around dog walking most days of the week. I take my own dog out ever 3-4hrs. I am not planning on bringing my dog unless specially requested. If I were to stay over my fiance would take care of our dog & cat and I would most likely leave the house for at least a few hours a day. I would bring my work with me and frankly treat your place like a 'focus/change of pace' office type thing. I work primarily digitally, laptop and I'm set. Happy to do other basics around the place, trash out to the curb or other similar things like that. Let me know what your needs are and we can go from there. I love to play and walk all the dogs I can, cats take time but I will just sit there and wait to see if they will come to me... It's all we can do, right? (Maybe a churu could help) We have a 70lbs goofy black lab so I can handle an, active dog. I know that getting them a bit of a run/play will make everyone's day better. My view is to be a reward only trainer with my dog. I wait until we pay attention, reward and repeat. We don't usually crate Lucca as he has some specific issues from before we adopted him. We do have one and I am happy to do so, but I can't resist my cutie patootie sleeping on the bed. Let me know what your furry family needs and we will figure out how to get it done.

Taylor was able to watch our cat Roxy within a few days notice when my other sitter wasn’t available. She was a great communicator, gave me detailed updates on how my baby was doing. She was on time, followed our instructions, and took great care of Roxy. I would book Taylor again in a heartbeat!

Olivia is usually pretty shy and slow to warm up to people but Julia got her to come out of her shell on the first day! In all of her photos she looked genuinely happy and my partner and I joked that we've been replaced haha. All in all she was very attentive and great and will definitely look to book with her again!

What a wonderful experience I had with Tricia. It was my first time using Rover and Tricia gave all the TLC my cat wanted! ‘Nanda warmed up to Tricia and there was no turning back after that! I felt worry free with each of Tricia’s two daily visits. Every visit was well documented and the photos were so sweet that Tricia always made sure to send.

Bah was so great with our senior cat Roxy!! Bah was so reliable and sent us pictures and updates on how Roxy was doing with her food and medicine. She was super easy to communicate with and was nice enough to stop by and meet us before our trip so we had peace of mind. I would hire Bah again in a heartbeat!

Cassie was really great! Very simple to book with and took great care of my three cats. She was also very attentive to them and noticed when they had gotten into a tube of toothpaste as well as a skin condition on one of my cats. I was very grateful for her, as I have bad anxiety leaving my cats alone, and really felt comforted by her thorough updates on her Rover cards. Thank you Cassie :)

Rachel is an incredible pet sitter!! Not only do the cats love her, but she truly goes above and beyond. We had some trouble with our automatic litter box and she was able consistently trouble shoot and solve tech problems on her own, making sure both the house and the pets were taken care of. So grateful we found her!
