Pet Sitting Thornton

“Matt is a fantastic dog walker. He spends a few hours a day with our day and takes great care of her. He walks her, feeds her, and plays with her. He is 100% reliable.”

Desireah O.

“We had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth! Came two days in a row with only a one-day notice. She came right on time and took great care of Bogey both days. Communication was great, she sent cute pictures/updates, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!”

Jenelle B.

“Ciana did a fantastic job to care for our cats while we were away. She was always prompt each day, spent time to bond with the cats, and kept things tidy around the house and sent us pictures each day. 5 stars!”

Joshua B.

“Margaret got back to me right away every time I sent a Message. She couldn’t have been nicer. I don’t know if she even got to see my cat (she’s a hider), but she did a great job!”

“I seriously could not recommend someone more than laura. She has been so amazing and attentive with scout. Scout doesn't do well alone but we are trying to work on that and she has done such a great job. She takes the best care of him and has become a best buddy to scout. I am booking her for the rest of my semester to help out with my baby and recommend her to EVERYONE!!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with plenty of hands on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. At home, I have three dogs a Great Dane, a pit mix, and a Border Collie mix as well as a cat, so I’m very comfortable with everything from big, strong dogs to high-energy pups and smaller pets. Having a house full of animals has taught me how important patience, consistency, exercise, and lots of attention are. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I’ll always take the time to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me. Whether your dog needs a good walk to burn off some energy, a bathroom break while you’re away, or just some extra attention and company, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m reliable, responsible, and looking forward to meeting some new four-legged friends! I am currently a student at West Chester University, I am a freshman and animal lover. I have Tuesdays and Thursdays off along with a half day on Friday, so I have plenty of time to take care of your lovely pets. I have an electric fence yard where I free run all 3. I have experience administering medications and feeding pets. I will follow instructions per request of each client.

About: I grew up in a household with many animals and have always loved walking our dogs and taking care of the cats and other animal friends. I would love to care for your pets and give them a special moment in their day and help you remove one thing off the to-do list. Our lives get very busy and for pet-owners, having an extra hand here and there can be very beneficial. As a college student, I am using Rover to help with finances during the semesters. Mixing physical exercise with hanging out with your pet for some time sounds like the perfect activity for me! I hope to be able to assist you with your pet needs. Best, Sieira I am currently a college student at West Chester University and a part-time employee at Wawa, so my availability depends on the day. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am able to be booked for walks or drop ins from 11:30am until 5pm. Saturdays I am only available in the afternoon, from 4pm to 8pm. Sundays I am available anytime requested in the morning until 5pm! I always ensure the pet is comfortable on walks, offering plenty of sniff breaks and giving them lots of water afterwards. For drop ins, I would love to hang out with your pet and allow for some fun socialization when they need it! I always do a temperature check on what the pet is feeling before taking action, as every animal is different and has various needs.

“Leanne took care of our 2 sometimes hostile cats while we were away. She was very consistent with her timing. She sent lots of great pics. I’m almost positive one of the cats would consider her a friend at this point lol. She went above and beyond everyday and I would definitely rehire her.”

Seth J.

“Jessica was amazing! Took great care of my cat.”

Sarah R.

“Alex is amazing and I feel very lucky to have her care for my cat. My cat really enjoys being with her and always looks happy in the photos and videos she sends. She gives thoughtful updates after every visit and keeps me reassured when I am away. She is easy to talk to and always responsive. I would happily recommend Alex and will absolutely book with her again.”

Eva Y.

“Nicole is the best! Our cats loved her when they met her and she took the best of care of them. Each day she let us know how they were doing and sent us photos. I hope she will be available the next time we go somewhere!”

About: Hi, I’m Matt. I love dogs and enjoy giving them a calm, comfortable place to stay while their owners are away. I grew up with dogs and have often helped care for my parents’ and sister’s dogs, so I know how important it is to have someone dependable who treats your dog like part of the family. I work from home in health IT consulting, which allows me to be present during the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and general companionship. I only take one client at a time, so your dog will get plenty of individual attention and will not be in a crowded boarding environment. I live in a quiet, owner-occupied apartment in West Chester with no children and no other pets. My home is best for small or mid-sized dogs who are comfortable in an apartment setting. While I do not have a fenced yard, I take dogs out for supervised leash walks, and the neighborhood has grassy areas and light local traffic. I’m happy to provide daily exercise, potty breaks every 2–4 hours, and oral medication administration if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed if that is what they are used to at home. For safety and comfort, I always like to do a meet and greet before confirming a stay to make sure it is a good fit for your dog, your expectations, and my home environment. I can also provide recommendations/references from people whose dogs I have cared for. I currently accept dogs over 1 year old, crate-trained dogs only, and no females in heat. I’m especially a good fit for dogs who do well in a quieter home and enjoy walks, attention, and a predictable routine. Overnight boarding is based on Rover’s 24-hour booking period. I’m always happy to clarify drop-off and pick-up timing before a stay so there are no surprises. I look forward to helping your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I work from home in health IT consulting and have flexibility throughout the day. I’m usually home during the workday, which allows me to provide regular attention, potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. During a typical day, I can take dogs out for potty breaks every 2–4 hours and provide walks or exercise based on the dog’s needs, energy level, and the weather. I also build in time for play, rest, and keeping the dog comfortable in a calm home environment. Because I only take one client at a time, I’m able to keep the schedule focused on that dog’s normal routine as much as possible. I ask owners to share feeding times, walk preferences, medication needs, crate routines, and any special instructions so I can keep their dog’s care consistent and predictable while they are away. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment for dogs in my home. I live in a quiet, owner-occupied apartment with no children and no other pets, and I only take one client at a time so each dog receives individual attention. Before confirming a stay, I always prefer to do a meet and greet to make sure your dog is comfortable with me, my home, and the overall environment. I want both the owner and the dog to feel confident that it is a good fit. During a stay, I follow the owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, crate routines, walking preferences, and any behavioral or comfort needs. I provide regular potty breaks every 2–4 hours, supervised leashed walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Since I work from home, I am usually able to give dogs attention and supervision during the day. Dogs are welcome on furniture and the bed if that matches their routine at home. I do not have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is supervised and on leash. My neighborhood has grassy areas and light local traffic, which makes it a good setting for regular walks. For safety and comfort, I currently accept dogs over 1 year old, crate-trained dogs only, and no females in heat. I can also provide oral medication administration when needed. I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are away.

“I couldn't have chosen a better sitter than Margo! She was so wonderful with my senior cat. She went above and beyond, cleaning up her after her and even taking out her litter bags to the trash. I will definitely hire Margo again whenever I need someone I trust to take care of my girl.”

About: PLEASE NOTE: that I am only accepting overnight requests in non-smoking homes at this time. Due to medical issue, I am unable to endure the lingering smell for long periods of time. I absolutely adore dogs and animals in general. I grew up around dogs and definitely know how to handle them. I have a good amount of energy to run around with your pup and take them for a decent walk or run around in the back yard. I can help with basic training as well. I love any type of dog, cuddly ones, crazy ones and all of the ones in between. As I said in the beginning, I love any animals, so if you need me to help out with any other pets while you're away, I'm your one stop shop! I am currently working full time but I am able to walk your dog after I am home from work during weekdays. I am also available on weekends for house sitting, walks, and drop in visits. I have pets of my own and know cats can be skittish. That being said, I am careful to watch the door whenever I go in and out of a home.

“Reliable, I think Henry likes Matt more than me!!”

About: My beloved pet Cookie just passed away at age 18. I gave her plenty of love and care and will do the same for your dog/s. Can’t wait to snuggle with your pet and treat him or her like Family. I live in the Garnet Valley School District and have lots of time to give your dog happy hellos, soft snuggles and loyal Friendship. I have experience in letting dogs out from at their home and taking dogs for walks when owners are away on vacation. I love making dogs happy with kind words, food/treats, sitting next to them and rubbing their belly. My home is perfect for boarding because I live in a quiet, traffic free area and it safe to walk or board your adorable pet. I also have a gated deck to enjoy fresh air when the weather is nice. If your preference is to leave your furry friend in your home, I would gladly come out to your home to look after your pet/s in their familiar environment.
