“David did a great job watching our dog. He provided us with timely updates as well. I highly recommend David war hing anyone's dog as he clearly has a lot of experience and cares about the dogs he watches.”
“We would 100% rebook with Christin! Everything was so smooth and friendly that we know that Finn had an amazing time. Loads of updates and super fast communication. Thanks again for taking in Finn :)”
About: Dog and cat CPR certified. My experience ranges from puppies to seniors dogs. Each dog has their own personality and needs, so I will match my sessions with them accordingly. Currently in school. I have plenty of time during the day to spend with your fur babies. Your time is valuable, so I will be punctual to each walking session. I will not be taking care of any pets at my home at this time. However, I do have 2 beautiful fur babies (pictures above).
“Renee was absolutely amazing watching our dog Winston for two weeks while we were in Italy. From the moment we left, we had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. She constantly kept us updated with photos, messages, and little check-ins, which honestly made being away from him so much easier. It genuinely felt like Winston was on his own vacation while we were gone! You could tell he was so loved, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Renee went above and beyond in every way, and we came home to a very happy dog. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, caring, and truly passionate about animals, I cannot recommend Renee enough. We would absolutely book with her again in a heartbeat!”
“Fantastic experience! They took amazing care of Trey and kept me updated with great communication and photos. Trey seemed happy, comfortable and well cared for when I returned. I will definitely book again.”
“He was above and beyond. My new rescue had to be left behind for the holidays and wasn’t super comfortable yet, so he had some behavioral issues and, I’m embarrassed to say, ruined some of George’s valued possessions. George was beyond kind and gracious/understanding. He sent pictures and videos of my dog playing with his and I could see that he was having a good time”
“Derek always takes such amazing care of Kobe! We are so appreciative of Derek’s consistent communication, endless love of Kobe, and willingness to accommodate Kobe’s needs.”
“Jayanna went above, and beyond to accommodate me from my 1st last minute request at 5.a.m., to keeping my Kenny an extra few hrs because I had an accident that even called for an ambulance, and was still available to have him ready at 12:30 a.m. so we could get on the Hwy heading towards Texas. She was the Greatest. $40 tip along with the extra hours into a paid full day day was a drop in the bucket for someone a kind, sweet, and caring with animals, and clients as she's proben to be! 🥰”
“Cartier always takes such great care of Nutella! She sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were on vacation. She was also SOOO accommodating when we had to leave a day earlier because of a flight change. We are very very appreciative and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Loved her! She kept me up to date daily with a photo, video, or comments regarding my dog, Sadie. She was attentive to any concerns I had in the beginning as my dog has food allergies, and she assured me she would follow my instructions regarding her care completely. I will be using her again!”
“We are glad to have found Brooke in the area to care for our two dogs when we are away! Videos are helpful and our dogs seem to have a good time!!!”
“Jake was absolutely fantastic!! It was our first time ever using Rover and he made us feel very at ease dropping our dogs off. Would highly recommend Jake and will definitely be using him again!”
“Felix was great with my dog nova. They made sure she was comfortable with the other animals in the house and stayed in communication throughout my trip. I have so many great photos from their walks and hanging out in the house. Felix is my first choice when I comes to Philly rovers”
“Haley is awesome. I felt 100% confident in her taking care of our boys from the second she came over for our meet and greet. They dogs left happy and came home happy and healthy. She sends updates and I know they were in good hands. Will book again!”
“Christine was amazing with our dog,Ellie. She was communicative, professional, and extremely knowledgeable about dogs. Ellie usually takes a long time to warm up but with Christine it was clear she was very comfortable with her almost immediately. We appreciated all the pictures we got if her over the 10 days while we were gone and very grateful for how happy Ellie seemed when we came to pick her up. We will definitely be using Christine again in the future and we would highly recommend her.”
“We received updates with photos or videos every day and could see our dog loved Jessica. On the final day, when picking him up we saw how comfortable he was with Jessica as well. We are very happy and will be back for sure.”
“We highly recommend Brian! Brian was very attentive in caring for our dog. She was nervous as it was her first time being left with someone else but Brian and his wife were very kind and supportive and provided regular updates. We would definitely use them again!”
Upper Darby pet parents share their Rover experiences
Saya and David were amazing! I had to book a sitter at the last minute, and they made the whole experience stress-free. I have two dogs with very different needs—one is high-energy, and the other is older and has a lot of anxiety—and they did a great job caring for both of them. They were very responsive, sent lots of great photos and updates, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with them and knew they were in good hands. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!
I will def be using Tamikia again! I thought my dog was going to have anxiety from separation and not being used to other dogs but from the photos and videos that was sent to me Kaya was having a ball. She enjoyed her time and I liked that Tamikia kept be updated with everything. I highly recommend!
Patricia was very hands on with Gigi making her transition from home smooth. Patricia sent update multiple times a day during Gigi’s stay. She sent videos and picture to let me see how Gigi was doing. I felt safe leaving Gigi because Patricia took great care of Gigi like she was her own.
Barbara was such an amazing host to our puppy Astra! She sent over plenty of pictures and a wonderful video of our pup playing with her dogs. Astra had a great time and came home absolutely exhausted which is a rare sight. Looking forward to booking with her again!
What an amazing dog sitter! It’s clear our puppy loved her time with Donte; shes been a little mopey since she’s been back home lol Donte would make sure to give us a peace of mind since it was our first time boarding our puppy girl; he made sure to send us pictures and videos of our pup while we were away. Very good communicator and we hope to have him as our dog sitter in the future! Highly recommend Donte!
Jennifer is the best dog sitter, we love bringing my dog Nico with her. I know he is going to be cared for when we drop him off and she provides excellent communication and picture updates. Nico is happy to see her always - she is a gem among dog sitters we are so greatful to have found her!
We couldn't be happier with Rachel! She took amazing care of our dog, Stella, for a weekend stay. We received several updates and adorable photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Stella tends to have separation anxiety but immediately settled in with Rachel and came home calm, happy, healthy, and tired from all the playtime. We'll definitely book again!
Jessica was absolutely amazing with Louie! She was kind, sweet, patient, and took great care of him throughout his stay. She also allowed us to do a meet and greet beforehand, which made us feel very comfortable leaving Louie in her care. What stood out most was how compassionate and understanding she was when we received unfortunate news during our trip. She truly went above and beyond during a very difficult time, and we appreciated her kindness so much. We would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would gladly book with her again!
I felt very comfortable leaving Bella with Alexandra and her family. They were warm and welcoming to her, and I left their home feeling a sense of relief. When we returned to pick her up, she actually seemed a little sad about leaving them… Lol I highly recommend Alexandra for your boarding needs.
Rosie had a great time at Kevin’s house with his dog and the other pups he was boarding. She came back happy and relaxed. Kevin was very thorough when we met up, and he asked lots of questions so that I would feel safe leaving Rosie. I’m very happy with the experience and I will use Kevin again soon.
