“Gio and Starry were absolutely incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they made the entire experience feel so easy, comfortable, and reassuring. They sent so many photos and thoughtful updates, which meant the world to me. I could truly see how loved and cared for Phoenix was the whole time.”
“Angela (and her partner Dan) took great care of Truffle. They sent meticulous updates with photos throughout the day. Truffle got to spend plenty of time outside and was very comfortable in their home.”
“Nicolle and Ronaldo did such an Incredible job at watching my dog Pimento! Nicolle updated me every single day on all the activities they were doing with him & included time stamps for the entire day! Pimento went on daily runs, had plenty of potty breaks, I was given meal updates, play time videos and more. They were so incredible, extremely reliable and I’m so thankful Pimento was taken such good care of! It’s obvious how much Nicolle & Ronaldo care for the dogs they watch as if they were their own. I will be booking Nicolle & Ronaldo from now on. Thank you so much! Pimento had the time of his life! 🐶🐶”
“Farrah had another fantastic stay at Ian and Clementina’s! They shared numerous updates, photos, and videos during her multi day stay at their apartment, and came back super happy!!”
“Rochelle was absolutely amazing. She cared for our rescue kitty for an entire month and gave him exactly the love, patience, and support he needed to heal and get ready for adoption. Communication was always easy—she was extremely responsive and kept us well informed throughout. She was incredibly patient as we worked through multiple health issues and handled medications with no problem. It's clear she truly cares about the animals she looks after. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and highly recommend Rochelle to anyone looking for compassionate, reliable care.”
“Jhazmin is an absolutely amazing dog sitter. She’s very caring, responsive, and our dog Izzy absolutely loves her, her house and big fenced backyard. She was very proactive with communication and sent us the best pictures of Izzy.”
“Bridget is an excellent dog sitter. Our pyredoodle is a bundle of separation anxiety, for us and him. Bridget sent frequent updates and pictures showing how well he was doing and allaying our concerns. Highly recommended.”
“Grace was amazing with Joey! He was clearly happy and well cared for. We loved receiving lots of photos and videos of him having a great time. We also had to unexpectedly extend our booking, and Grace was incredibly helpful and accommodating. We’re very grateful for her care and would highly recommend her!”

“Sabrina was amazing with magnolia! I’ve had unfavorable Rover experiences in the past so planned ahead and did a meet and greet. I could tell instantly how warm and genuine she is- she even read up on the notes before that meeting. I felt super comfortable heading into our weekend away. During the weekend she gave several updates and was generous with photos/ videos all descriptive of magnolias characteristics. I knew Magnolia loved her stay with Sabrina when I picked her up and she kept looking back for her to walk away with us! I will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s free!”
“Zoe and her husband were so great with our pup, Burger! They took care of him as if he was their own, and he had a grand time with them. They sent photos and kept me updated on his status throughout. When I went to pick him up, it was clear he didn’t want to leave. Would definitely recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a safe and loving place to board their pups!”
“Sanaz was so great for agreeing to watch Roscoe last minute. She sent update photos and messages every day. He also was in such a happy mood when I went to pick him up. Will definitely be requesting her again in the near future.”
“Ayush was wonderful with our dog! He made sure he was comfortable in his house and that he got along with his dogs. Super communicative and sent us plenty of pics! Will definitely book with Ayush again!”
“It has been a long time since I've had to board my pets with someone I didn't know. It is hard enough to leave our fur babies in the care of a friend or family member, but it is an more nerve-wracking experience to place them into the care of a stranger. Michael assuaged those fears before we even met him! He asked all the right questions about our boy's needs from the get-go (he's a large senior dog with arthritis) and gave me frequent updates and pictures of how he was doing. He walked our boy judiciously and gave him all of his food and medications just as we would. He was wonderful. It was such a relief knowing that our boy was in such capable, caring hands. We're in town for work but are lucky enough to have weekends off. We picked our boy up today and he looked so happy and healthy. Michael did such a great job that we're going to utilize his services again next week. I just can't say enough good things about him.”
“Chin-Wing, did an amazing job with King. King is very stubborn but she applied so much patience and love. I received many pictures of King during his stay I will definitely bring him back 😊”
“Mitchell was great with Monty! He was very friendly, flexible about my schedule, and was a great communicator. He sent adorable photo updates of my dog (who stole all of Marsha’s dog toys lol) too!”
“Very caring host — Pooja took the time to get to know Matilda’s needs and take good care of her. We appreciated her flexibility and updates throughout the stay!”
“We love leaving our doggies with Gabby and Maidely! They are always well taken care of, get lots of loves, and enjoy playing with their doggies!”

“Dong was so great! He was super responsive and communicative ahead of the booking and during, and took lots of photos during each drop-in. Dong's professionalism made it so much less stressful to leave my <1 yr old cat for a few days - thank you, Dong!”
“Jolea J. is a trustworthy, responsible, and effective pet sitter. She followed the routine we have with our cat to the letter. Also she gave him love, send us wonderful pictures, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will seek her out next time we need care for our cat!”
“My cat has quite a few special needs, and Kobi did a great job making sure he was well taken care of! She sent pictures everyday either playing or hanging out with my cat which was awesome. I highly recommend her for all your cat sitting needs!”
“My saffron loves Rebecca’s company! Rebecca is nice enough to not only take care of your pet but the apartment as well, she took out the trash and closed my window when incoming weather was bad. Always appreciate her time and care for my cat!”
“Kaylee was great with our two cats. Cindy, who is usually shy, loved Kaylee and we received great photos of her while we were away. We got home to a clean litter box and happy cats. I would definitely rebook.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my patience and my ability to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. I have hands-on experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends and acquaintances while they were traveling. I am especially comfortable caring for senior dogs and dogs with cardiac conditions. I understand the importance of routine, close observation, and giving medications carefully and on time. I always follow the owner’s instructions in detail to ensure each dog’s health and well-being. I also have experience working with puppies. I know how to keep them engaged with age-appropriate activities, both indoors and outdoors, while maintaining structure and safety. In addition, I have some experience with positive reinforcement training, focusing on patience, consistency, and encouragement rather than punishment. My goal is to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so every dog feels safe, understood, and well cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work remotely and manage my own schedule, which allows me to be flexible and fully available to meet each pet’s needs. I have plenty of time to provide attention, regular walks, playtime, and any additional care a dog may require throughout the day. I’m able to adapt my routine to match the pet’s usual schedule, whether that involves frequent breaks, quiet companionship, or more active moments. Most importantly, I truly enjoy the company of animals and value the time spent with them, making pet care not just a responsibility, but something I genuinely love doing. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs before welcoming them into my space. Pets in my care stay in a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I closely supervise them, maintain consistent feeding and walking schedules, and make sure they always have access to fresh water and a safe space to rest. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, and any special care requirements. I pay close attention to details and adapt my care to each pet’s needs, whether they require extra patience, a quieter environment, or more frequent check-ins. I prioritize gentle handling, patience, and positive reinforcement at all times, and I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident knowing their pet is in responsible and caring hands.

“Amazing sitter experience! We just got our cat about 2 weeks before we needed to go away so we didn’t want to move him to a new space. Kaitlin did a great job at making sure he was fed and had fresh water and litter. Was super easy to coordinate and I will definitely use her again for the next time I’m away.”
“Outstanding service and experience with our little fur baby. Great communication skills, and prompt with timing that we agreed. Followed instructions as originally planned. Highly recommend.”

“I had Kate and Alex take care of my cat Clara for 2 weeks when I was on vacation. Throughout this time, they were very communicative and responsive.

“Thank you once again, Gabriela and Maidely, for taking such wonderful care of Kaya! I love seeing how comfortable she is with you in the photos you share. I can rest assured that she is in great hands when I go away, and I can’t thank you enough for that!”

About: Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My household includes a Doberman Pinscher, a Great Dane, and two Maine Coon cats, so I'm comfortable managing everything from giant breeds and high-energy dogs to independent, affectionate cats. Living with a Doberman has given me experience with intelligent, active dogs that thrive on structure, exercise, and attention. My Great Dane has taught me the unique needs of giant breeds, including gentle handling, patience, and awareness of their size and comfort. My two Maine Coons have helped me develop an understanding of feline behavior, grooming needs, and creating a calm, enriching environment for cats. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I have the space and resources to provide attentive, reliable care tailored to their individual needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐕🐈 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As the owner of a Doberman Pinscher, a Great Dane, and two Maine Coon cats, my days are already structured around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I work with a flexible schedule that allows me to be present throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, supervised play, and check-ins. Pets in my care receive regular attention rather than being left alone for long periods. My large rooftop deck also provides a convenient space for supervised outdoor time and exercise between walks. I understand the importance of maintaining consistency, so I do my best to follow your pet's normal routine, including feeding times, medication schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. Whether your pet is energetic and active or prefers a quieter environment, I can accommodate their individual needs and help them feel comfortable and at home during their stay. 🐾 Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax, play, and feel at home while you're away. I share my home with two friendly, well-socialized large dogs—a Doberman Pinscher and a Great Dane—who are accustomed to being around other animals. I carefully manage introductions and always prioritize each pet's comfort level to ensure a positive experience for everyone. One of the highlights of my home is a spacious 1,600-square-foot private rooftop deck, providing plenty of room for supervised outdoor time, fresh air, play, and exercise. Pets are never left unattended outdoors, and all activities are monitored to maintain a safe environment. As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust involved in leaving your furry family member in someone else's care. I'll keep you updated with regular photos, videos, and messages so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. 🐾
“We LOVE Jonathan. Not everyone is equipped to take care of a two month old puppy, but he so was! Jonathan kept our same feeding routine, had a backyard for Theo to go out in, he has a dog tent in his house! Just a place for the dogs to be!! His dog was a great playmate for Theo, and we really enjoyed our experience. Thanks for the videos, Theo can’t wait to come back!!”
“Andrea watched my puppy Nola for the day while I was in the office and took great care of her. Nola was able to socialize with her dog Teddy which was an added bonus. Nola came home tired and happy.”
“They provided the best care for my pup. It was my first time leaving him with a sitter and I was nervous but they comforted me the whole time he was there and send many photos and videos. Very grateful and will definitely rebook!”
About: Hello my name is Nicholas and I'm a pet loving, experienced dog walker. I just received my first 5 star rating. I take great pride in providing the best pet care possible for my clients. Besides having pets growing up I was the only child. So I fully understand the value of a pet as a member of the family. I'm a full time pet care provider but more over we're a family owned business. So we provide pet care in McGinley Square and in Society Hill. Essentially we walk, board, pet visit, and doggy daycare all week. Plus on holidays. We have a backyard so the guys get run some laps and get in some much needed quality time. Plus we literally take group photos. Plenty of belly rubs to give out and fresh Poland Spring for the modern active doggo.
About: I pride myself in spreading all of my love and compassion to every animal that I come across. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Nothing makes me happier than seeing happy pets, and giving their owners peace of mind that they are in safe hands. I have hundreds of 5 star reviews, and positive references detailing my work in all types of services with many different types of animals. I will always go above and beyond to care for any pet in my care, it's what I'm ultimately passionate about. I am incredibly flexible with my schedule, I do pet services full time and I'm always open to accommodating however I can. With open communication, anything is possible! My home has a fenced backyard, with a private security system. I make sure that I keep ample treats, toys, and enrichment activities in the home and I love taking the pets out for walks or just to explore the town. If I'm offering services outside of my home, I will always treat your space with respect and make sure that every request is thoroughly taken care of.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced and passionate pet sitter with over 10+ years of pet care expertise. I’ve cared for a variety of dog breeds, from playful Golden Doodles and Border Collies to gentle Bulldogs and fluffy Samoyeds, including senior dogs who need extra attention and care.

In addition to dog care, I can provide home sitting, feeding, and companionship for cats, making sure they’re well looked after while you’re away. I can’t wait to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! As someone who is passionate about pets, I make pet care a priority in my daily routine. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or simply spending quality time with your pets, I ensure they get the attention they need. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to cater to different needs, whether it’s during weekdays or weekends. Whether your dog needs frequent walks or your cat needs companionship, I can easily fit these responsibilities into my week, making sure your pets are happy and well-cared for throughout the day. When it comes to pet care, safety and trust are my top priorities. In both my home and my client’s home, I create a secure and comfortable environment where pets can feel at ease. I follow any specific routines or instructions to ensure their well-being, from feeding schedules to medication needs. Whether it’s securing gates or monitoring playtime, I keep a close eye on pets to prevent accidents and ensure their safety. I treat each pet as if they were my own, building a bond of trust, so both you and your furry friend can feel confident and comfortable.
“Danielle was great with Walnut, who is a nervous little guy and has separation anxiety. She was good about giving him the space to warm up to her on his own terms, which I really appreciated. 10/10 will send him to her again”
“Buddy was happy when I picked him up from Ayush. Ayush was very easy to communicate with and I appreciated the updates of seeing my pup having a great time. Thank you!”

“It was great meeting Liwei! He took wonderful care of Rio and, just as importantly, was patient in doing a proper meet-and-greet with the whole family to understand the environment Rio lives in. That thoughtfulness really put us at ease. Rio was in great hands, and we’d highly recommend Liwei to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter. Looking forward to booking again!”

“Alison was incredibly patient with my new rescue dog, Olive, who tends to need a bit of time to warm up to people. She took some time to give Olive some treats and get to know her prior to taking her out for the walk which was so appreciated! I am excited to have her take Olive on more walks.”
“Ana from the beginning was quick and responsive and willing to meet. She was attentive to asking all the right questions that made me feel more at ease in making my decision. She cared for my dog Zorro while my husband & I traveled, and updated me with pictures and questions along the way! Even though my two cats were not part of her duties, she was nice enough to update me on them. I plan on booking with Ana come further travels! Thank you once again.”
“This is our second time using Christina and she shined like the bright star that she is once again. She is just so great and a true dog whisperer. She really cares for dogs as her own, and I see that with my beloved banjo. She is also so great with walks and boarding and such because we found out she has training and works to become a vet tech. Literally trust your dog with Christina. She’s the only person on Rover I’d ever trust.”

“It has been a long time since I've had to board my pets with someone I didn't know. It is hard enough to leave our fur babies in the care of a friend or family member, but it is an more nerve-wracking experience to place them into the care of a stranger. Michael assuaged those fears before we even met him! He asked all the right questions about our boy's needs from the get-go (he's a large senior dog with arthritis) and gave me frequent updates and pictures of how he was doing. He walked our boy judiciously and gave him all of his food and medications just as we would. He was wonderful. It was such a relief knowing that our boy was in such capable, caring hands. We're in town for work but are lucky enough to have weekends off. We picked our boy up today and he looked so happy and healthy. Michael did such a great job that we're going to utilize his services again next week. I just can't say enough good things about him.”
“Very caring host — Pooja took the time to get to know Matilda’s needs and take good care of her. We appreciated her flexibility and updates throughout the stay!”
“Our 3 yr old Momo loves staying with Eduardo. Eduardo genuinely loves dogs and reports to us with videos and photos. Momo was once having diarrhea during his stay so he reported to us quickly and asked if he could give Momo rice. What a considered man. I feel like I’m dropping him off at my dad’s. I call Eduardo uncle Eduardo now.”
“Jennifer is so great with Brioche. She is kind and patient and takes the best pictures, letting me know Brioche loves being in her care. Brioche is a tough dog, due to his special needs but Jennifer is someone id trust him with 10x over. Thank you!”
“Jocelyn is so great with my dog. She also goes above and beyond to come pick him up for me and drop him off when I am home. He slept for 2 days after all the play time he got while staying at Jocelyn's house. I'll be a repeat customer for sure. Thanks for everything Jocelyn!”
“My little guy Jake always has the best time when staying with Ahmed. I get lots of smiling pics and he gets lots of outdoor time. I trust he's in good hands. 🐶❤️”
“Shirley is fantastic! She asked all of the best questions during our meet up that really made me feel that Twyla would be in good hands. During her stay I received lovely photos of Twyla living her best life and getting some exercise on the waterfront. As a high energy dog, Twyla’s needs were met! When it came time to pick her up after the weekend Twyla didn’t want to leave before saying goodbye to Shirley. Then she took a long nap. Thank you Shirley!”
“Stephanie was amazing and a last minute life saver as I needed to alter travel plans! They helped with the smooth pickup and drop off as well and kept me updated about Tycoo!”
“Amazing and responsible dog sitters. Daily photos and updates. They took care of our dog with all the hustle of the pills and increased amount of walks she needed. Highly recommend!”
“Paige took such great care of our pups, Trooper and Leia! She sent regular updates and they came back healthy, happy, and clean. She even sent them home with a toy that they enjoyed while staying with her. We recommend Paige to any pet parent!”
“I was very happy with Natalia. She is very flexible and took very good care of my pup. I would surely book with her the next time I am in the area.”
“Thanks to Dee, we had a very relaxing worry free vacation. We had regular photos video updates on biscuits day. She was having a great time with her new friends. Thanks Dee. See you again soon.”
“Yushan and Sam are animal lovers who made space in their home and hearts for our cat and dog this weekend. From the many pictures they sent during the stay, it looks like our pets were very comfortable and got along great with Yushan and Sam's. Would recommend for an accommodating and compassionate boarding experience for your pets.”
