“Andrea made our first vacation using Rover a breeze! We had previously never used a sitter outside of friends or family, so we were a little nervous. But Andrea came to meet us and our pets beforehand, she was very attentive and kind. She was on time for every check in and left us a note with pictures every time. She was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. We highly recommend Andrea and her services. She left us feeling at ease while we were away. When we got home, everything was perfect and our pets were happy and healthy. Thank you so much!!”

“Kristen is by far the best sitter we have ever had for our cats. A total cat girl and you can she actually loves our cats. She is overly thorough and has a lot of pride in her services and it shows. We are so grateful for her flexibility and willingness to step in when we are away.”

“Jessica was wonderful, she was organized, punctual and caring to my pets. She kept in constant communication and shared photos of my dogs. Her services were greatly appreciated.”

“Mackenzie has always watched our feisty, 7 yr old cat & she was very quickly able to warm up to our new, little Daisy! She watched the girls through the holidays & it was obvious from the photos how much they love her!”

“Toni is always the best!!! I love that she was able to watch both our dog and cat this round! They just love her so much! She goes above and beyond every single time.”

“Awesome! Kailey came in clutch last minute after midnight to relieve my dog! She was very communicative and I couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommended and since she’s local to me, I will utilize her again. Thank you!”

“Izzy was so great with our kitties! She spent quality time with them while we were out of town. Izzy also shared pictures & videos with us that we enjoyed viewing and assured us our kitties were in good hands! I can’t thank her enough!”

About: *I ONLY TAKE ONE CLIENT AT A TIME* *DOGS MUST BE CRATE TRAINED* I've cared for dogs for most of my life, including my own dogs as well as my client's dogs. As a housekeeper for many years, I was the natural choice when my clients needed a pet sitter. Their pets became like my very own. Now that we no longer have a dog in our home and so I enjoy caring for my client's "borrowed" dogs while they are out of town. Hablo español. My husband and I work part-time. Our schedules allow at least one of us to be home all day so your pet will be closely monitored for their safety. I have a fenced-in yard and no other pets in my home. I require a meet & greet before the booking to meet your dog and for you to meet me to make sure we are a good fit. For our safety as well as your dog's safety, I require proof of current Rabies vaccination. At this time, we do not accept more than one client at a time. This is for your pet's comfort and safety. We require a meet & greet with you and your pet before confirming any boarding visit.
“Stephanie was so great with Onyx, going above and beyond during the time she spent with him! She kept us informed, was very communicative & sent lots of pics!! We appreciate her ♥️”

“Auriel was a blessing while I was gone for 10 days on vacation. She took amazing care of my senior cat while I was away. She made sure her litter box was clean, gave her food/water and even brushed and loved on her for me! She kept the area clean and I felt very safe having her in my home while I was away. She is trustworthy and dependable and I would absolutely use her again in the future.”

About: I’ve grew up with animals since I can remember. I had to stop myself from brining home every animal that needed a home haha. Being around animals so often, mainly dogs and cat has taught me not only how to properly take care of them but also understand them while building a loving and trusting bond. Yolenny is the founder of a dedicated pet care service called Moos faithful hounds LLC. Her inspiration to Create this business was inspired her profound love for animals and in memory of her French bulldog, Moo Friend. She believes every animal is unique and deserves personalized care. My passion for animals and the drive to begin training blossomed as I cared for both my dogs, Nala and Moo. However, Nala my Labrador was what sparked my interest to start training. Through Nala, I learned the foundations of dog training. Over time, through formal courses and hands-on experience, I discovered a true calling: connecting with each dogs unique personality and needs, so I can help them thrive. As a military service member, my mission is to bring my love, knowledge, and experience to every pet I care for, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and understood When I provide my services, safety is always my priority. Safety protocols can be different for each pet. With that being said, I always communicate with the owner to understand and adjust safety protocols based on each pet's needs.
“Alexis is FANTASTIC!!!! I came home to a sparkling clean home, kitties well taken care of, she even vacuumed and cleaned up. She sent me pictures of the cats every day and even my very shy boy cat loved her! She’s gonna be my go-to catsitter now, terrific job!”
“Geri is so good with our dog Winston. She has formed a bond with him. I interviewed her on a Sunday and she started two later. She really helped calm me down about leaving my boy alone. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve grown up with 3 pups of my own who are back home in Philadelphia while I’m in medical school! My roommate of 4 years had a senior cat of her own, so I am well versed in the needs of both cats and dogs. :) I’m currently in my 3rd year of medical school doing my rotations throughout the Palm Beach area! Dropping in on some furry friends or spending the night with them is something I’d love to be able to do when not in the hospital :) I’ll treat your pets like my own! They’ll get all the hugs, kisses, and snuggles - whatever they need. Safety is my priority and they will be treated like family.

Jorden has taken care of my dog and cat many times now for various weekend trips and my longest two week vacation. She has always been readily available and great with the animals. My dog is a big German shepherd and she handles him with ease and even does his eye drops twice daily. Jorden is very reliable and will always be my go-to sitter.

Alexa is amazing!!! She not only came to rescue when we needed last minute help but went above and beyond to take care of my cats. I really appreciate her communication, photos and that she even cleaned up when it wasn’t asked of her! Will definitely have Alexa help watch my little angels again asap!

Evan was awesome with my two cats. They loved him and appreciated his playing. Evan provided extremely thorough and detailed updates to me in each of his visits and asked any clarifying questions he needed to. I would highly recommend Evan to anyone looking for a sitter in the area.
