“Second time leaving our 1 year old golden with them. Definitely trust Paul, very accommodating and alleviated our anxiety of leaving our dog for a few nights. Will definitely use again.”
“There are not enough words to express how thankful I am for Maria and her beautiful family. I felt so comfortable knowing that my Nico was being cared for by Maria. She is AMAZING - so loving, kind, attentive and caring. Maria had to take Nico to the vet in my absence and I truly was not worried one bit. He was so calm and felt safe with Maria. Even when I went to pick him up he didn’t want to leave. He had the best time there. I give her 10 stars and Nico cannot wait to go back!!”
“We love leaving Bruno with Anmol and Trupti, we love the addition of the fence for open running area. They take care of Bruno so well with his high energy. We will definitely use them again. He is very happy there! Thanks”
“Bob was wonderful to our nervous little pup! He made sure she was well taken care of and she felt very much at home at his place. Would definitely have her stay again!”
About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.
“This was our first time using Rover and leaving Watson with someone while we were away for a few days. Christi and Peter did a good job caring for Watson and he seemed to enjoy his time with them. We were very concerned leaving him somewhere because he is a rescue and is nervous and shy but they said he did well with them and their dog Reesie. We would definitely reach out and use Christi and Peter again if we needed someone to watch Watson while we were away. Thank you”
“Billy is hands down the Dog Whisperer — and that headline is no exaggeration! He’s the best of the best. My 5-month-old Maltipoo puppy, Einstein, was treated like royalty while my family and I were away on holiday. Billy kept us smiling the whole trip with constant pictures and videos of Einstein — whether it was him strutting around the park, enjoying his meals, or just being his playful self. It honestly felt like Einstein was on his own little vacation! Billy even went the extra mile by gently removing some knots from his fur and washing his things before giving him back to us. He was super polite with my whole family, always cheerful, and gave us updates whenever we asked (sometimes a couple of times a day). Einstein got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles — it was obvious he was being cared for as if he were Billy’s own pup. On top of all that, Billy’s rates are very competitive, which makes the level of care he provides feel like an incredible find. We’ll 100% be booking him again as repeat clients. If you want someone who will love your pup like family, look no further — Billy really is the Dog Whisperer! 🐾✨”
“Xavier and his family took great care of my dog Emma while we were away. You could tell she was treated well and enjoyed her time there and having a fenced in yard is perfect for any dog that likes to be outside and roam. He’s a great communicator and would definitely use him again.”
“I will definitely be rebooking with Brian for any upcoming trips. It was our first time leaving her with someone, and Brian took excellent care of her and made sure she was comfortable and happy. Great communication the entire time!”
“Meg and her family took very great care of our precious Belle!!! Meg sent us pictures and updates throughout Belle's stay with them!!! Thank you and hopefully some time in the near future you can watch her again for us!!!”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Harleny! She took amazing care of my dog, Saga, and treated her like one of her own. Saga received so many cuddles and had an absolutely great time while in her care. Harleny kept us updated throughout, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she was incredibly accommodating when we needed to make some last minute changes. We’re so grateful for her kindness and flexibility she showed Saga. Highly recommend her!”

“Max and his family always take great care of Cali. Max sends me photos and keeps our very active dog busy on long walks, hikes and trips to the beach. We have used Max for boarding multiple times and never have to worry about Cali as his family showers her with love and attention. We can’t wait to book Max again.”
“Debi made everything so easy and took great care of our dog, constantly sharing updates and pictures. Her house and property is set up perfectly. She was also extremely accommodating and patient when helping us with some unique requests for our wedding day. I would recommend Debi to anyone in need of boarding.”
“Lorrie was great with Koda and made sure she was comfortable around other dogs by introducing them slowly. She was highly communicative and sent me pictures and videos throughout the stay to make ME more comfortable too :) This was a first for me so I appreciate the extra effort Lorrie made to put everyone at ease! Looking forward to booking again!”
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”
“As always, my pup Brooke is well taken care of while with Radwa. She gets lots of attention from the entire household especially her furry friends there. I never worry when she is there. It’s such a nice feeling to know your pup is good. I highly recommend Radwa.”

About: Hi! I’m a first-grade teacher and proud cat mom who understands that pets are family. Caring for others has always been a huge part of who I am, both in my career and in my personal life. As someone whose own cat is my whole world, I know how important it is to find a sitter who will treat your pet with the same love, patience, and attention that you do. I have years of experience providing safe, reliable care and am comfortable following your pet’s routine, whether that means playtime, cuddles, feeding schedules, medication, or simply giving them space when they need it. I especially love caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. My goal is to help you feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is being cared for by someone who genuinely loves animals and will treat them like family. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾💕
About: I was born and raised with my childhood cat and took care of her until she passed when she was seventeen. I've cared for neighbor's elderly cats throughout the years as well as got a new cat named Stevie two years ago as a kitten.
“Finnian was available last min and responded super quickly which is always great in a pinch but not expected. He was open to all my directions for my new puppy and comfortable dropping in without meeting her and not knowing what to expect. Took adorable pics and sent great notes! I do the job full time and so far I’m happy I found him :)”
“Brittany was great with my kitties. Was receptive to any suggestions or changes that were made. Was very helpful when one of the cats got out because a friend of mine came to water the plants. All in all I would highly recommend her.”
“Jenna was amazing with our three cats. They were well looked after the entire week. Jenna was punctual, thorough, and made sure we were kept in the loop at all times. We highly recommend her, A+!”
“I cannot recommend Allison enough! From the moment I dropped Leo off, I knew he was in wonderful hands. She kept me updated throughout my trip with frequent messages and adorable pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my little boy was happy and well cared for. Allison and her husband, Anthony, have such a warm, welcoming home, and it was clear that Leo felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while he was there. Leo is a shy cat, so seeing him relax and settle in meant the world to me. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet as if they were their own, Allison is exactly the person you want. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I know Leo will be excited to go back. Thank you both for taking such amazing care of my baby!”

“Lauren was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my cat while I was away on vacation. She sent me updates and pictures every visit and was so patient with my shy kitty who spent her first few visits hiding. They ultimately became best buds which made me feel so much better about being away. I would definitely recommend Lauren and would definitely have her again!”
“We left our cat with Steve for five nights. We seldomly ever leave our cat who travels with us all around in our camper. Of course we were a little bit nervous, leaving him in a strange city. But, Steve and his wife were amazing! The communication was outstanding and the kitty care was excellent! Steve’s wife works at pet shop and her love of animals was clear. I would not hesitate to leave leave Moby there again. Thank you so much for being such caring people and great pet sitters!”

About: I've had cats since I was 6 years old-I have taken care of all situations with cats - including having to help senior cats eat (by hand). I have given cats insulin, water / hydration therapy and other medications and can sit for domestic shorthairs to the exotics.
About: I have pet sat cats for close friends over the years, and I have loved every second of it. I have always dreamed of having a cat of my own, so I plan to love your pet as much as I love my current dog, and even my future cat.
About: I don’t just watch cats—I care for them with the same attention and affection I give to my own. I’ve had pets my entire life, and I’ve also worked professionally with a pet-sitting company, where I gained hands-on experience with cats of every temperament, age, and personality. I understand that cats thrive when their routines feel safe and predictable, so I make it a priority to learn their habits, preferences, and boundaries. Whether your cat is shy, senior, playful, or a certified lap-lover, I adapt to their pace and comfort level. I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and topical treatments, and I’m patient with senior kitties who may need a little extra support. Cleanliness is also incredibly important to me—I keep litter boxes spotless, food areas tidy, and your home as neat (or neater!) than you left it. Most of all, I genuinely enjoy building trust with cats. I take time to talk to them, play with them, and make sure they never feel lonely while you’re away. My goal is that you come home to a relaxed, happy cat—and complete peace of mind.
About: I grew up in a family of animal lovers and from an early age I learned how to care for them with attention, patience, and affection. Being around animals has always been a natural and important part of my life. I also lived for two years with a host family as an au pair, where I was responsible for the household, the children, the family cat, and daily routines. This experience strengthened my sense of responsibility, organization, and reliability, especially when caring for both people and animals. Through this experience, I developed strong habits when it comes to maintaining a home, following routines, and handling responsibilities with care and consistency. I am someone homeowners can trust to respect their space, follow instructions carefully, and communicate clearly when needed. I will treat your home and your cats with the same attention, respect, and affection I would give my own.
“Bethany is a really wonderful sitter, and person! She has been so easy to communicate with, reliable, accommodating and caring. Our dog has been anxious in his new home and very sick lately, but he felt super comfortable with her. Her boyfriend Jason who also is on Rover joined her for this visit, and the both of them bonded so well with our dog. We are so excited to work with them moving forward!”
“Heather is very dependable and caring towards our Moochi. Although it had been many months since Moochi had seen her, he remembered her and rubbed against her when he saw her. Heather is also a very good communicator. I highly recommend Heather!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience.

In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet.

In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space.

“So damn fortunate to have found Bianca. As pet owners, everyone is familiar with the apprehension that accompanies when you have to trust a stranger with your pets or like I say “Your Heart and Soul”. My boys are uber spoiled and Bianca’s level of patience with them….I couldn’t ask for anything more. She is communicative, punctual, extremely professional. She took the time to truly listen and understand Buddy and Brody’s personalities - their likes and dislikes - their joys and anxieties. As a pet owner, one can’t ask for anything more. The only aspect that behooves me is why does she not charge more for her services? Lol. All kidding aside, she is a Godsend for pet owners. B, once again thank you for you.”
“Maria was great at following instructions for feeding and walking . She communicated promptly about her timing and availability. And my dog warmed up to her right away . I would definitely use her dog walking service again.”

About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.
“This was our first time using Rover and leaving Watson with someone while we were away for a few days. Christi and Peter did a good job caring for Watson and he seemed to enjoy his time with them. We were very concerned leaving him somewhere because he is a rescue and is nervous and shy but they said he did well with them and their dog Reesie. We would definitely reach out and use Christi and Peter again if we needed someone to watch Watson while we were away. Thank you”
“Billy is hands down the Dog Whisperer — and that headline is no exaggeration! He’s the best of the best. My 5-month-old Maltipoo puppy, Einstein, was treated like royalty while my family and I were away on holiday. Billy kept us smiling the whole trip with constant pictures and videos of Einstein — whether it was him strutting around the park, enjoying his meals, or just being his playful self. It honestly felt like Einstein was on his own little vacation! Billy even went the extra mile by gently removing some knots from his fur and washing his things before giving him back to us. He was super polite with my whole family, always cheerful, and gave us updates whenever we asked (sometimes a couple of times a day). Einstein got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles — it was obvious he was being cared for as if he were Billy’s own pup. On top of all that, Billy’s rates are very competitive, which makes the level of care he provides feel like an incredible find. We’ll 100% be booking him again as repeat clients. If you want someone who will love your pup like family, look no further — Billy really is the Dog Whisperer! 🐾✨”
“Xavier and his family took great care of my dog Emma while we were away. You could tell she was treated well and enjoyed her time there and having a fenced in yard is perfect for any dog that likes to be outside and roam. He’s a great communicator and would definitely use him again.”
“I will definitely be rebooking with Brian for any upcoming trips. It was our first time leaving her with someone, and Brian took excellent care of her and made sure she was comfortable and happy. Great communication the entire time!”
“Meg and her family took very great care of our precious Belle!!! Meg sent us pictures and updates throughout Belle's stay with them!!! Thank you and hopefully some time in the near future you can watch her again for us!!!”
“I had such a wonderful experience with Harleny! She took amazing care of my dog, Saga, and treated her like one of her own. Saga received so many cuddles and had an absolutely great time while in her care. Harleny kept us updated throughout, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she was incredibly accommodating when we needed to make some last minute changes. We’re so grateful for her kindness and flexibility she showed Saga. Highly recommend her!”

“Max and his family always take great care of Cali. Max sends me photos and keeps our very active dog busy on long walks, hikes and trips to the beach. We have used Max for boarding multiple times and never have to worry about Cali as his family showers her with love and attention. We can’t wait to book Max again.”
“Lorrie was great with Koda and made sure she was comfortable around other dogs by introducing them slowly. She was highly communicative and sent me pictures and videos throughout the stay to make ME more comfortable too :) This was a first for me so I appreciate the extra effort Lorrie made to put everyone at ease! Looking forward to booking again!”
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
“Our dog, Riley, was so well cared for by Josh. He met us at our car for drop off and pick up bc it's tricky to get to his apartment. While Riley was there we received pictures to keep us updated. It made our evening in Philly so much better knowing she was in good hands.”

“Jaimie was great! She was very solicitous of Angel and celebrated her 10th birthday with her. She kept in touch with pictures of Angel and her pets. I felt very comfortable that Angel was in excellent hands.”
