“Kelsey & Conor were amazing with George!! He settled in immediately with their two dogs, Brody and Beans, and had the best week ever. Daily walks, constant play, and by the end he was lounging on their furniture like he owned the place. They sent photos and updates without us having to ask, and were very flexible with drop-off and pickup over a busy holiday week. He came home happy and completely worn out. Could not recommend them more!!”
“Excellent communication from start to finish! I had the best experience from the initial meet and greet through the entire stay. Luna was in the best hands, and I loved receiving regular updates and pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was so well cared for. I highly recommend Cindy ❤️”
“Hali was very communicative and attentive to my dogs. If you need someone to watch them like you would watch your own, she’s the one you want! She also sent pictures to keep us at ease.”
“Jeslyn was so sweet! She arrived at the car with treats to pick up my pup, and kept her comfortable and was well taken care of. Great communicator, I received plenty of pictures throughout her stay. Will definitely book again!”
“Chazz was so gracious with our schedule in dropping off and picking up our dog. He was flexible with our last minute boarding and provided many photo/video updates. Ozy had a great time with him and I’d book again!”
“Kerry is absolutely amazing. My pup loved spending time with her - either cuddling on the couch or lounging in the back porch with her. We greatly appreciated her constant communication and the care taken while our pup was in her care.”
“Kristina was awesome! She sent daily updates and pictures which I really appreciated, took Mika on daily walks, and really made me feel like she gave her special attention and care! We look forward to using Kristina in the future!”
“Lottie always loves her time with Hilary and Sam and their pups. She gets lots of play time and is happy and tired when she comes back to us!!! They are also flexible with drop off and pick up, which we appreciate!”
“Becky and Travis were perfect. It was our first time having someone “board” Etta. We only had a couple days to find someone, and they were willing to squeeze in a meet and greet to help ease our minds. It was evident through photos and texts that Etta was having an amazing time with Becky, Travis, and their pups- and being treated with care and love. She was even sent home with a handmade bandana! We’re so thankful!”
“John and Michelle did a great job watching our little pups. They were responsive and friendly, and they walked our dogs frequently. Would definitely use again!”

“Artesha took excellent care of our two dogs. Provided pictures and updates while we were away. We were perfectly at ease with her watching our dogs. Definitely recommend!”
“Dave and Phyllis are very attentive and caring. I know my baby is getting babied when he is with them, and they are flexible and accommodating. They alerted me that my dog’s allergies had begun to merit medical attention when I came to pick him up.”
“Renee was wonderful! This is the second time she has watched Wally and he always has a great time! She communicates well and often with pictures and videos. I’m always happy to send Wally there and will gladly do so in the future!”
“My girls had the best time they looked at home I was so worried about leaving them because I had never left them before but my heart was at peace with all the videos and pictures I received they were loved on and truly cared for and they will be returning. Ps THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING GOOD CARE OF MY GIRLS 💕”

“Alicia is very helpful. She brought pet safe Ann repellent to treat the ants in our home, also helped us unbox the food delivery box we forgot to cancel. Really appreciate it.”
“Charles was such a lovely sitter for our two cats! He was prompt, engaging, and courteous. MHe left great notes and took the cutest photos. He was able to get our shy girl to warm up to him with just 1 visit! And went above and beyond and brought in packages and our trash can (why does time away always align with trash day? Lol). We will definitely book with Charles again. We and our kitties loved him! Thank you! ❤️”

“Amy went above and beyond with detailed notes and photos after each visit. She was so kind, professional, and timely. It is always hard to leave your pets but we felt at ease leaving our kitties in Amy’s care. She made our first experience with Rover a really positive one. We will definitely be using Amy for all of our future pet sitting needs!”
“Alexis was a great sitter for our cat Atlas and our betta fish Simon, excellent communications throughout, provided great status pics, and was overall someone whom I would trust with all our pets. She will be on our regular sitter rotation going forward!”
“Bri did a great job with my cats and was communicative throughout the 6 days she took care of my furbabies. I will definitely ask her to cat sit for me again”

“Denille is the best and a blessing to work with. She took care of Hooch like he was her own. She even recognized he was sick and worked with me and my vet to get him care and saving his life after he got into some left overs and ate onions. Will be hiring again as she is trustworthy and loving!”

“That backyard! My baby works for door dash and Uber when he rides with me sometimes and he needs to stretch and play. So seeing Artesha 's backyard full of toys, a lil pool, and a big enough space for him to play was a bonus. But nothing matters more to me than for him to get to socialize with other fur babies. Artesha has a ZOO lol jp! I fell in love with all of her fur babies putting me at ease while I worked. They are very friendly and very sweet. Artesha accommodated all of my requests and last minute request. Provides communication and pictures. Thank you for opening up your home to Quwwa and I.”
“My dog sitter cancelled last minute. Brineydi responded quickly and ensured me Midnight was adjusting well. Although, it was for a few hours she send pictures and kept me updated. I would book with her again in the future.”
“Hendry and his wife took full responsibility for my puppy beagle. They pay attention for details and treat Teddy with great professionalism. I would recommend Hendry for my friends.”
“Brijana is wonderful- my dog is a special needs dog and Brijana takes so much care and time loving here. Mia also loves her dog Piggy, who is such a gentle soul. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who wants their dog to be loved and cared for by a great person!”
“Sarah did a great job again with Diego. She provided many photo and video updates during the day and it is clear to see how much of a dog lover she is and how well she treats every animal she is looking after. We will continue to use Sarah for our pet sitting needs ☺️”
About: My love for dogs is endless. I've been involved in dog rescue for over 12 years. The fun dogs, the shy dogs, the dogs with no direction and the perfect dogs, dogs of all ages. A very quiet home with playtime if they want it or quiet time that they need. I provide lots of enrichment and a full secure yard where they can run and play, or just sun bathe. I have been dog sitting for years and I've also been a part of a dog rescue where I've seen everything. Each one of our family members deserves love and respect and a little extra when their family is on vacation. It should be a relaxing time for our canine family too! I pride myself on the reaction of my visitors when they come back over and over!!! My schedule allows me to give your family members all the time and attention they could ask for in my home. I never want your furry family to feel like they aren't comfortable and I will engage with them as much or as little as they would like while giving them the space they need if they choose. I have a fully fenced in yard, but no one is out in the yard unattended. I also have the ability to completely separate dogs with separate exits/entrances. All dogs are able to go on couches and dog beds throughout the house and if they need their own space, I have that capability as well. The separated room has it's own tv, couch and is where I spend most of my day working. If your pup(s) is friendly, they are able to keep us company throughout the house. Smoke-free home.
About: I’m a dog dad myself, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I treat every dog in my care the same way I’d want someone to treat my own with patience, attention, affection, and respect for their individual routine and personality. I’ve cared for dogs for more than 10 years, from energetic younger dogs who need plenty of exercise and playtime to older dogs who need a little more patience and a slower pace. I’m comfortable with larger breeds, feeding routines, walks, basic medication, and following detailed care instructions. I’m dependable, attentive, and big on communication. I’ll keep you updated so you’re never wondering how your pet is doing. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Your dog won’t just be another booking on my schedule they’ll be treated like family while they’re with me. we can even discuss providing access to a pet camp so you can have full transparency and reassurance that your loved one as care for. I have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care part of my day rather than squeeze it in between other commitments. I’m already used to planning my day around my own dog, Leo, so walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention are part of my normal routine. I’m available throughout the week and can often accommodate different schedules with advance notice. I know how particular I am about who I trust with my own dog, so I take that responsibility seriously when someone trusts me with theirs. I follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any house rules. I pay attention to the little things too like behavior, energy, appetite, and anything that seems out of the ordinary and I’ll always communicate with you. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, my goal is simple: keep them safe, comfortable, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands on experience raising five dogs from puppies all the way through adulthood. Because I've gone through every stage, from potty training and teething to obedience work and senior care, I'm comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP) who is 6 months old that I've raised since she was just 13 weeks old. She's incredibly sweet, well socialized, and gets along great with other dogs. She's also a great role model for younger pups and helps make introductions smooth and positive.

Because of this, I can only accept dogs that are comfortable around children and have a friendly, non-aggressive temperament. The safety and comfort of all family members, both two-legged and four-legged, are my top priority. With that being said, my child knows boundaries and will not be engaging much. When providing care in a client's home, I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 13 years (plus grew up with family dogs!) and when I cannot be home in time to take care of my own, I am stressed and worried. When I find someone to help care for my dog, I want them to take as much care as I would. So when I'm taking care of someone else's dog I will care for them the same way! If your dog has any special needs, I am very open to learning about them and want to know how I could best take care of them so both you and your dog are safe and happy.
“I can't say enough about Christie and Drew. They allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our dog. They were great about sending us pics and updates throughout the day. Our dog was super excited to return the following day. I highly recommend them and definitely would use them again.”
“Lan was fantastic! I was in a bind with a last minute in-office work assignment that required a sitter for my four-month-old puppy, Nahala; and Lan stepped up and offered to take her on. She and her family were kind and made us both comfortable with our first-time experience. Nahla had a great time and was was very well taken care of. I wouldn't hesitate to seek out Lan again, next time we're in need of a sitter!”
“Pat was very patient with both Sammy and myself, especially in trying to find his apartment! I had a very stressful day and kept getting confused. Sammy was a rescue with a horrible background and Pat was very careful handling him. Pat took him out for walks several times and Sammy loved being out on his patio! Pat sent several updates and pictures of Sammy during the day. Will be using him every time I go into Philly for my medical appointments.”
“John took great care of my pup. He was super attentive to group dynamics between the dogs and made sure my pup could hang with him on the couch while the others played. I really appreciated John’s updates and would definitely send Roscoe to him again!”
“Kanade is so lovely and took incredible care of our pupper. I recommend her highly for all of your pet care needs - she sent lots of pictures, Lucy came back happy and calm and clearly was well loved.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have a deep love for animals. My partner, Jeff and I adopted our dog Miso in early 2025, so we know from experience the “puppy blues” that can come with a new addition. We already have repeat clients and frequently dog-sit for friends, coworkers, and neighbors. We have experience caring for senior dogs, as well as post-spay care and administering medications from caring for own pup. Jeff and I both work full time on flexible hybrid schedules, so there will always be someone home during your dog’s stay. Our pup’s routine includes potty breaks in the morning, afternoon, evening, and one final outing before bed. Your dog will follow the same schedule unless they require a more specialized routine or level of care — we’re happy to accommodate their needs! Dog park visits are a regular occurrence as well. We don’t have a fenced yard, but our neighborhood is very dog-friendly with plenty of green space for your pup to explore and sniff to their heart’s content. Miso is crate-trained, and we also have additional crates available if your dog is more comfortable being crated as well.

About: Hi! I'm Nicole and I am a dancer/choreographer/dance teacher/mom currently living in Collingswood. With the little time that I have off I thought this would be the perfect way to make a little extra cash AND to get to hang out with some animals! I have been dog/cat sitting since high school and always treat every animal as if it's my own. I never had a pet growing up (I was one of 4 kids so there was no time or space for a dog) but have always been a huge pet lover! I currently have a 13 year old cat named Pistachio who I love more than anything. I would love to get the chance to hang out with your furry friend! I am the main person who takes care of my cat. I make sure she has water, food, clean her litter box, and okay with her. I have free time often and I love going for walks! I prefer not to have pets in my home so I like going to others homes to sit their animals. I treat the home and the pet as if they were my own.
About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life and have been caring for my own dog for 10 years. For the past 3 years, I’ve also fostered dogs, giving me hands-on experience with different personalities, backgrounds, and comfort levels. I’m patient and understand that every dog needs something different to feel safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walks, playtime, crate routines, basic training reinforcement, and lots of love and attention. I treat every dog in my care like one of my own. I’m available for pet care Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday, which are my work-from-home days. Being home allows me to provide regular potty breaks, feeding, playtime, attention, and supervised outdoor time throughout the day. Pet care is already a natural part of my routine with my own dog and foster dogs, so I’m comfortable working around each pet’s individual schedule and needs. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my priority. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, as well as a separate fenced area inside my home that allows visiting dogs to have their own space away from my resident dog when needed. My fostering experience has taught me the importance of slow introductions, respecting each dog’s comfort level, and giving them time to adjust to a new environment. I’ll also follow your dog’s normal feeding, potty, crate, and sleep routines as closely as possible.

It’s important to learn your dogs usual schedule to help them feel more comfortable while you are away!

“Mary has been amazing walking my dog everyday while I'm at work. Unfortunately I was laid off so I won't need a dog walker, but if you can get Mary to be yours she will be amazing!”

Edie was a rescue and we've had her since she was four, she's now twelve She is well attended to, from receiving her daily medications, to her regular vet visits. Edie is my constant companion. She is usually by my side all day long. I am currently retired, so I have plenty of time available to watch and care for your K9. I am available with advanced notice. No longer inconvenienced by a work schedule. I am working on several projects for my model railroad club at home since I've retired. Our dog, Edie is well taken care of in our home. We make sure Edie is fed ever morning and receives her daily medications. She is taken to her regular vet visits. Since Edie is an older dog, she doesn't go for walks as often in the summertime but gets regular backyard visits. She does likes to sunbathe. When she's up to it, we wrestle and play rope tug from time to time. Edie is pretty much by my side all day long. You know you're pet the best, I will follow your directions, while you dog is in my care.

Whether that be a dog, cat, fish, reptiles or even animals like hamsters and rabbits every single one them have been given the love and attention needed!

So if you need to go out of town for an overnight I have plenty experience in house sitting as well. I always make sure that they have a proper sleep schedule and also make sure their day is full of activities and excitement so they don’t miss a beat when they are back in the arms of their wonderful owner.

“Amy has been a blessing. Our Santi has anxiety and generally takes quite a while to warm up to people. Finding a walker/sitter has been a challenge. When Amy came for a meet and greet Santi barked only a couple times before deciding Amy is her new BFF! I was worried she might change her attitude when Amy came to walk her. Amazingly, so far it's been great! Amy is a dog whisperer. I feel completely at ease know Amy will be staying with Santi when I travel for business. Thank you so much, Amy! We appreciate you tremendously.”

“Kelsey & Conor were amazing with George!! He settled in immediately with their two dogs, Brody and Beans, and had the best week ever. Daily walks, constant play, and by the end he was lounging on their furniture like he owned the place. They sent photos and updates without us having to ask, and were very flexible with drop-off and pickup over a busy holiday week. He came home happy and completely worn out. Could not recommend them more!!”
“Excellent communication from start to finish! I had the best experience from the initial meet and greet through the entire stay. Luna was in the best hands, and I loved receiving regular updates and pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was so well cared for. I highly recommend Cindy ❤️”
“Hali was very communicative and attentive to my dogs. If you need someone to watch them like you would watch your own, she’s the one you want! She also sent pictures to keep us at ease.”
“Chazz was so gracious with our schedule in dropping off and picking up our dog. He was flexible with our last minute boarding and provided many photo/video updates. Ozy had a great time with him and I’d book again!”
“Kerry is absolutely amazing. My pup loved spending time with her - either cuddling on the couch or lounging in the back porch with her. We greatly appreciated her constant communication and the care taken while our pup was in her care.”
“Lottie always loves her time with Hilary and Sam and their pups. She gets lots of play time and is happy and tired when she comes back to us!!! They are also flexible with drop off and pick up, which we appreciate!”
“Becky and Travis were perfect. It was our first time having someone “board” Etta. We only had a couple days to find someone, and they were willing to squeeze in a meet and greet to help ease our minds. It was evident through photos and texts that Etta was having an amazing time with Becky, Travis, and their pups- and being treated with care and love. She was even sent home with a handmade bandana! We’re so thankful!”
“Artesha took excellent care of our two dogs. Provided pictures and updates while we were away. We were perfectly at ease with her watching our dogs. Definitely recommend!”
“Tania has watched our two dogs twice now at her home, and she always does a great job. They’re relaxed, happy, and clearly comfortable with her. We feel completely at ease leaving them with her and will definitely be booking again.”
“We had a great experience using Melissa! Ace was well taken care of and clearly had a great time. We really appreciated the updates and pictures. We’ll definitely rebook again in the future! 🐾💕”
“Shakira was absolutely amazing with Keema! From the start, she was kind, communicative, and made me feel completely at ease leaving my pup in her care. Keema came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved, which says everything. I really appreciated the updates and the genuine care she showed throughout the stay. It’s such a relief finding someone I can fully trust with my dog. We’ll definitely be booking with Shakira again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Bryce was great with Alfie! It took Alfie some time to settle in which made me a bit nervous but Bryce ensured me that he had things under control and Alfie would be okay. He was even patient with me because I was worried! Bryce was also very accommodating when I had the dates incorrect due to the time zone. He quickly responded and modified the date. He was great! Thank you Bryce!”
“Tim was great! Took Billie on many walks and kept us updated the entire time we were away. Would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dogsittee”
“This family was amazing with my dog!! He had a blast and looked so happy in every pic and video! I received updates often enough but not so often that I felt bombarded. Scooby was well taken care of and enjoyed all of his love! Will definitely be sending him back!”
“Alexis does such a great job with Prince! She really takes care of him and provides the comfort Prince receives at home. I will continue to care for Prince when I am away.”
“Archer had a great stay with Elizabeth! We got plenty of photos and updates while we were away and could tell how much fun he was having. He was well taken care of!”
“Kanade and her husband were such amazing sitters for my 2.5 year old Pom mix, Marsha. They treated her like she was one of their own and were so communicative with me. I'll definitely asking Kanade to watch her again soon. Thank you again!”
“John is amazing! He helped us when we were in a serious time crunch to find boarding for Marley. He kept us up to date daily with plenty of photos and videos and we were so appreciative of his caring approach for Marley. She also made a fast connection with Parker. We will definitely be repeat customers. Thank you John and Parker!”
About: I’m a dog dad myself, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I treat every dog in my care the same way I’d want someone to treat my own with patience, attention, affection, and respect for their individual routine and personality. I’ve cared for dogs for more than 10 years, from energetic younger dogs who need plenty of exercise and playtime to older dogs who need a little more patience and a slower pace. I’m comfortable with larger breeds, feeding routines, walks, basic medication, and following detailed care instructions. I’m dependable, attentive, and big on communication. I’ll keep you updated so you’re never wondering how your pet is doing. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Your dog won’t just be another booking on my schedule they’ll be treated like family while they’re with me. we can even discuss providing access to a pet camp so you can have full transparency and reassurance that your loved one as care for. I have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care part of my day rather than squeeze it in between other commitments. I’m already used to planning my day around my own dog, Leo, so walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention are part of my normal routine. I’m available throughout the week and can often accommodate different schedules with advance notice. I know how particular I am about who I trust with my own dog, so I take that responsibility seriously when someone trusts me with theirs. I follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any house rules. I pay attention to the little things too like behavior, energy, appetite, and anything that seems out of the ordinary and I’ll always communicate with you. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, my goal is simple: keep them safe, comfortable, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible.
