“Alexa's great!! She told me that Luna cuddled with her cat and got along well with her dog. I am appreciative that she was flexible with pickup and dropoff. Would definitely ask her again :)”
“Mary (and family) always take great care of Ginger. I am provided daily updates and can see how happy Ginger is. The best sign of great care is how she easily adjusts to being home as our happy pup. Thank you for all you do!!!”
“It was our first time boarding our Pet Benji with Manu and Dhruv. They welcomed him with love and shared pictures throughout the day. We definitely will recommend Manu and Dhruv!”
“We’ve used Chonlada and family for two separate weeks this summer to watch our Frenchie. Our dog Gus is so well taken care of and has such a fun time with her dog. Chonlada is very responsive/communicative and caring. Absolutely recommend and we will be booking with her and her family again in the future!”
“Diego&Amelia are great! They sent daily pictures and information about my doggies, they treated them as part of their family. My babies had a great time with them. Definitely recommended! If you are looking for a place to leave your dog, Diego&Amelia are the perfect family, they will make your dog feel welcome and loved!”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Amanda was awesome while we were on vacation. She sent us daily pictures and updates. Her house has a huge fenced in backyard and our pups loved it. They came home happy and exhausted. She was also so accommodating with our drop off and pick up schedule. I highly recommend her. We will definitely take our boys back!”
“Jetzy was awesome with our little frenchie. She provided daily updates, and was able to accommodate his special needs. Our dog had a ton of fun with Captain. Would absolutely recommend and use Jetzy and family again!”
“We left our yorkie, Richie with Julia for over a week and Julia took great care of Richie, took him on regular long walks, shared pictures and videos of Richie and ensured that he ate well and kept him comfortable in her home. Thanks to Julia we were worry free about Richie on our vacation”
“Jim was great with our pups and treated them like family, which is exactly what I was hoping for. It was our first time boarding them outside of family and he was a great match! Re-entry was a breeze and our pups seemed happy as can be! Would highly recommend!”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“Lily is absolutely amazing. She treats our Charlie like family. She’s reasonable and listens to your questions and concerns. We absolutely love her! Thank you Lily for treating our Charlie as your own”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”

“This was our first time with Emily and she was wonderful! We got the cutest photos of our cats and a detailed report of the check in. Even our shy cat came out for her from first visit we couldn’t believe it! I could tell when we came home that our kitties were happy and well taken care of, thank you so much Emily for everything that you did :)”
“Adina is amazing with our furry family and we love when she takes care of our cats. She helped our little old man Andy (15 year old cat) take medicine and he even gained a little weight (much needed!) under her loving care.”
“Jess is great and so kind! She was available last minute and quickly set up a meet and greet with my girls Layla and Phoebe. They instantly took to her, thanks to the treats she brought them! Jess took great care of the dogs while I was away and sent me pics of them bonding. I certainly recommend her as a pet sitter and I will be using her in the future!!”

“Julie was absolutely amazing with my kitties, and it was such a relief to know that they were in great hands while I was away! I loved getting the photos and thoughtful updates she provided, and my cats loved her! I would give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could!”
“Alexis was wonderful for our cat. She gave him love and attention on her visits and provided great updates with photos. She asked questions and even offered to water our flowers. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Betty was superb again! She took care of our cats while we were away with such care - even bringing them a toy to help ease their nerves when there was construction on our street.”
About: I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and not all felines enjoy cuddles or constant attention. I have experience scooping litter boxes, preparing meals, administering medications, and recognizing when a cat wants affection or simply needs space. Cats are my favorite animals, and I have spent time learning about feline behavior and body language to better understand their needs and provide patient, compassionate, and stress-free care.
“I cannot say enough great things about Melodi. Our shy cats come out of their shell more and more when she comes and cares for them. I feel so comfortable leaving them at home with her to come and play with! This weekend my husband and I went on vacation and we enjoyed the photos/Rover cards so much. It puts my mind at ease that she is the one caring for them. Thank you again Melodi!!”
“Rachael did a wonderful job watching our cats over the holiday week! She was extremely communicative and made sure everything was taken care of - from checking their auto feeders and water supply to ensuring they were happy and healthy while we were away. She also took special care of our cat Honey, who has pica, which meant a lot to us. Getting daily updates (including photos!) gave us so much peace of mind. On top of all that, she kindly brought in an unexpected package for our upcoming wedding and placed it somewhere safe. We’re very thankful for Rachael and will absolutely be booking her again!”
About: I have had cats all my life and I absolutely adore them! Ever since I was little I’ve had the responsibility of taking care of my family’s cats. Especially cleaning the litter box! I’d love to help take care of your kitties!
About: I grew up with dogs and while my current situation isn't conducive to owning, dogsitting and walking suffice the immediate urge. I grew up with St. Bernards, so I can handle dogs of all sizes. My schedule will be very open, but I enjoy waking up early and going on walks, so if that is something that you are looking for I would gladly volunteer my services. I am very active and am ready to tire out your dog in the yard or on a run when necessary. Looking forward to spending time with your dog! I'm taking some time in between jobs, so my days are wide open, but I play soccer in the evenings very regularly, so that is the only part of the day where I may have limitations. I am not able to offer boarding given my apartment restrictions, but I can assure you I will treat your home with care and respect.

“I can’t say enough good things. Thoughtful, kind and gentle and so easy to leave my pet with these lovely people. I am so grateful for their animal love and easy manners. Made my experience wonderful. Thank you!”
About: Hi, I’m Adina, owner of Playful Paws Pet Sitting. I offer thoughtful, high-quality care for dogs and cats in a calm, home-style environment. I specialize in one-on-one attention, consistent routines, and low-stress care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m experienced, insured, and deeply detail-oriented — from feeding schedules and medications to walks, playtime, and quiet companionship. I intentionally limit bookings so every pet receives unrushed, individualized care. My clients are often busy professionals who want complete peace of mind while they’re away. I provide clear communication, photo updates, and the kind of dependable care I’d expect for my own pets. Your home and your pet will always be treated with respect, warmth, and discretion. If your pet stays with me, I offer an executive home on a large one acre flat lot and access to nearby trails. For sporty dogs, we take two twenty minute walks a day and one long hike in the woods (1-2 hrs) in addition to regular potty breaks outside. For the couch potatoes, I offer lots of quiet places to lounge and toys and enrichment like puzzles. Your dog can have total privacy if needed, but it’s better for everyone if they get along with other dogs. My home is like camp for dogs! I am with your dog all day, and will not leave them for more than 1.5 hours to run a simple errand. If you’re looking for reliable, concierge-level pet care, I’d love to connect. I specialize in anxious pets, senior pets, and pets who need a lot of medical attention throughout the day. My clients are mostly long term and like family and I develop lasting relationships with your pets! This is my full time job and so I am available to you and your pets. Please discuss with me the details of what you need and I will give your pets all the love and attention they deserve. I’m friendly, flexible, and will go above and beyond to keep your pets happy. I treat all animals with love and respect. I have been an animal lover my entire life. I am neat and organized and will treat your home with care and respect. I will send you photos/videos of your pet(s) as well as daily written updates. I specialize in dogs and cats with anxiety or who are shy, as I take the time with your pets to make sure they are comfortable.
About: I’ve had all sorts of animals since I’ve been 10 years old. I currently have a yellow lab who is the sweetest dog! He enjoys all animals and is gentle when playing. I watch all my friends and families' pets when they go away. I mainly work from home during the week. Occasionally, I may need to go into the office. I have a fenced in yard where your dog can room or I can take your dog for a walks all throughout the day. I have one dog who would love company. I have a nice fenced in yard.

“Sruthie and Abha have been amazing! My dog has been so happy with them and has been given so much attention and love! I highly recommend them as they are wonderful people with big hearts. They sent me pictures and messages all day long! I’m so happy I found them!”
“Dakota's favorite day of the month is when she gets to go hang out at Spencer's house. His dogs have officially started being referred to as "the cousins ", and she loves spending time with them. I get peace of mind that she has loved and cared for no different than if she was laying at home with me”
“Sarah was always available to communicate with me about Essie and kept me updated. This was Essie's first away from home experience and she went happily off with Sarah. Essie is used to us being home most of the time, so I was reluctant to leave her just anywhere. I felt like she was in safe home atmosphere. Thank you, Sarah.”
“Belle had such an amazing time! Chonlada and her fam were absolutely amazing. We are from out of state and were a little nervous to leave Belle, but Chonlada made it such a great experience and took wonderful care of our pup. She even sent Belle home with a parting gift and her daughters drew a beautiful pic of Belle! I would certainly trust Chonlada with any dog!”
“Alexa was amazing. Super responsive, sent a ton of pictures and kept me updated. Roo had a cone on during his stay and when the one I had broke, Alexa made she he got a new one same day. Would highly recommend”
About: Lifelong dog owner and previous pet-sitting business owner; will care for your dog; young, old, big, small. Your dog will be lovingly cared for! (Note: So sorry but we are cautious about hosting aggressive breeds because of past experiences.) I am home quite a bit so your pup will get plenty of attention and exercise. I may be out for a two+ hour stretch here so bringing a crate is highly recommended. We have a fenced in yard with lots of space to roam. We also have hiking trails nearby for walks, if preferred. Plenty of exercise given!
About: Looking for a calm, loving place where your dog will be treated like family? You've found it! I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so my goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible. Whether you need doggy daycare for a few hours, overnight boarding, or care for a long weekend, your pup will receive plenty of one-on-one attention in a peaceful home. One of the biggest perks? I don't currently have a dog of my own, so your pup gets my full attention without having to compete with other resident dogs. I work from home full-time, so they'll have companionship throughout the day, regular potty breaks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of love. My home is set up with dogs in mind, including a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. Every dog has their own routine, and I'm happy to accommodate it. If your pup is crate-trained, I'm happy to continue that routine. If they prefer to free roam, they're welcome to make themselves at home. I have a naturally quiet household—no loud music or constant commotion—making it an ideal environment for dogs who enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. Whether your dog loves to play, snuggle on the couch, or simply nap in a cozy spot, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have two cats who live upstairs in their own separate area and do not interact with boarding dogs, allowing everyone to enjoy their own space comfortably. I know you're trusting someone with a member of your family, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll treat your pup with the same patience, affection, and care I'd want for my own pet, while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

“Julie & Caleb were incredibly responsive and helpful when I needed a daycare arrangement for my Pointer. I ended up cancelling due to a change of plans, but will absolutely rebook in the future if I need daycare when in town.”
About: About Me Hi, I’m Pam! I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all breeds—puppies to seniors—and treat every pet as family. I’m organized, caring, and deeply dependable, and I’d be honored to care for your pup. Why Choose Me? Flexible & Present: I work from home and dedicate undivided attention to each pet—companionship is always there. Routine-Focused: I follow your pet’s normal routine closely—mealtimes, walks, play sessions—to help them feel at ease. Why I Love Pet Sitting Dogs and cats have been part of my life forever—I can’t imagine not having at least one around! I balance caring for pets with raising my son—I’m home, present, and fully engaged. We’re warmly present at all times—your pet will be with company and attention throughout their care. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to making your pet feel right at home! 1. Adhere to Your Pet’s Regular Routine As an effective sitter, I stick closely to your pet’s feeding, walking, and activity schedules to reduce stress and help them feel at ease. Consistency makes all the difference—pets thrive on familiarity and structure. 2. Lean on Written Schedules & Reminders I rely on alarms, digital reminders, or a shared care document outlining feeding times, walks, and medication schedules. Detailed care plans—not just verbal instructions—help ensure nothing is overlooked. 3. Balance Walks, Play, and Mental Stimulation Your pup will enjoy walks in the morning and evening, play sessions in the yard or with toys, and brain games like puzzles or training drills. This balanced mix keeps pets physically active and mentally engaged, which is a hallmark of personalized, attentive care. 4. Clear Communication with Owners I provide updates via text, photos, or videos—tailored to your preference. Whether you'd like a daily summary or only updates if something important comes up, I'll make sure our communication fits what works best for you. Clear, consistent updates help build trust and peace of mind. 1. Create a Secure, Pet‑Safe Environment I prioritize safety by pet-proofing all areas—tucking away loose items, securing small objects, and removing anything toxic within reach. I supervise pets at all times, even in fenced yards, and avoid assuming familiarity protects against escapes or mishaps. 2. Use Barriers and Supervision for Added Security To prevent accidental exits, I employ secondary barriers—like baby gates or exercise pens—when entering or exiting through doors. Even in clients’ homes, I discuss acceptable barrier use ahead of time to ensure safety. 3. Establish Safe Boundaries & Routines I maintain separate feeding areas and “own spaces” for each pet to avoid tension and provide comfort. Cleanliness and routine are central—each pet has its own safe zone, whether in my home or yours- 4. Meet & Greet for Confidence and Preparedness I always recommend a Meet & Greet before booking—this gives us a chance to establish comfort and go over logistics such as key access, gate codes, and safe entry routes. It also helps me anticipate quirky behaviors and preferences that enhance care. 5. Respecting Your Home & Access Protocols When caring for pets in your home, I ensure a secure access plan—whether through tested codes, spare keys, or lockboxes—and always return keys promptly. I conduct perimeter checks to confirm gates are closed, trash secured, and hazardous zones off-limits. 6. Open, Tailored Communication Builds Trust I’ll work with you to determine your preferred update style—daily summaries, photo check-ins, or notes only if something unusual occurs. Consistent, clear communication not only reassures you, but also ensures your pet’s care is seamless. 7. Emergency Preparedness Included I keep emergency contact info—including vets, local animal hospitals, and your trusted contacts—on hand. I’m prepared to act quickly and responsibly in case of illness or safety concerns. 8. Built‑In Assurance through Rover’s Standards As part of the Rover community, I’ve passed a comprehensive background check and adhere to Rover’s Trust & Safety protocols, including the Rover Guarantee and responsive booking protection. Our communications always stay within the platform to ensure transparency and security.

“Nicola is absolutely amazing! We couldn’t ask for a better person to care for Rocky while we’re away. She is always reliable, on time, and goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well cared for. She doesn’t just walk him—she spends time playing with him, makes sure he’s fed, comfortable, and happy, and treats him like one of her own. Knowing Rocky is in Nicola’s care gives us complete peace of mind. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We highly recommend Nicola to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!”
“Jessie was very nice, she was prompt, professional, walked the whole 30min walk, and handled both of my dogs very well. They came back from their walk exhausted and I'm sure if they could talk they would say she's great too(:”
“Adina is great with communication and her reports on from the visits always give me peace of mind! She is very patient with my older dog and spends extra time with him if he doesn’t want to walk far!”

My schedule is very open and I am very flexible! Would love to get repeat clients! I have grown up around dogs and I adore them. I have a lot of experience with them and love working with them. When I walk them/let them out I do as the client asks, make sure they have water, toys, etc.

I’m on a hybrid work schedule, so can pop in according to my availability. Always around on the weekends and have a fenced in backyard at my own home if they’d like to play here for a bit! Always ask for a collar with tags, vets info just in case, their dietary restrictions, and of course I need to know their fav treats!
About: I’m a huge dog lover!! My family, friends, and neighbors have all relied on me to help take care of their dogs while they’ve been away. My yellow lab passed a few years ago whom my family and I adored. So I love to get the opportunity help out with your doggies! I’m mostly available starting 10:30 to mid day on every day except Wednesday! but some days I’m available all day! preferably with a couple days notice. I enjoy playing with your pets and making sure they are getting exercise and happy. Having a list for feeding times and things your dog or cat likes is very beneficial.
About: I have had pets for longer then I can remember, ranging from chocolate labs and huskies to nearly a dozen cats. I have experience with disabled, elderly, obese, and energetic animals of a variety of breeds. I can medicate and monitor your pets if need be with instructions provided. I will also play with and send update pictures of your furry friends so you can be sure of their care. I'm a full time student so I can check in anytime after 11am on most days. I do have class on Tuesday and Thursday so I can only check in after 2pm those days but I can check in later to balance it out. I will come over, hang out and play with your animals, check their essentials and ensure they are of good health, medicate or walk as necessary, then leave when I am certain of their care.
About: I have lots of experience administering medication to dogs and cats and I am comfortable doing so. I am also comfortable watching puppies, who are not potty trained, and cleaning up after them. I have had many puppies in my life and cleaned up a lot of messes. Depending on your requests (and your dog's preference), I will take your dog on a long (2 to 3 mile) walk a day or to the dog park (probably in Pheonixville: on Longford Rd). A dog deserves to get all his energy out, and I do not charge more for walking them. I recently moved to the Valley View Apartments in Pottstown, PA. I work part-time at The Home Depot (6 minutes away). I have a BA in English from Stony Brook University in NY and I am returning to School this fall, part-time, to begin a new journey in Engineering. I love dogs and I would enjoy watching them and taking care of them. I have had dogs my entire life, and due to my recent move, this is the first time in my life I am without them in residence. Your dog(s) is free to go and sleep wherever they want in my apartment. My dog, Oliver, is a gentle, sweet pup with random bursts of puppy energy. He suffers with epilepsy, which is where I gained experience administering (over fifty: not an exaggeration) pills a day to my dog. Our dogs and cats are free to go wherever they want at the house back at home and when they stay here at my apartment. Although I am not living with them currently, I believe taking them out either for a long walk or to the dog park for at least forty five minutes is essential.
About: Since growing up with many different breeds of dogs, I have a lot of experience. I have pet sit and taken care of my neighbors dogs as well as other peoples dogs. I worked at a dog daycare in limerick called Dogtopia, so I have a lot of dog experience from that as well. I work a 9-5 on the weekdays and am mainly open on the weekends to help with anyone in need for dog walking or sitting! I take pet care very seriously. I love taking dogs for walks and giving them company in their homes as well. Any specific instructions you have, I will follow and make sure your dog is under good hands!
About: I have always had pets in my life, dogs, cats, gerbils, snakes, turtles, fish... I am very comfortable with everything I've come across so far. I recently retired, and am looking for ways to help others, while doing something I enjoy. My daily calendar fluctuates, but with enough notice, I should be able to meet your schedule. I am very respectful of your home and property, and will do my utmost to follow your instructions to keep your loved-one(s) safe and well cared for.
About: Hello! I love making new fur friends! I’ve been using rover for a few years now but took a break. I just started back on here and looking forward to meeting new clients! I am very dedicated to the wellbeing of animals, both mine and others. I got my first animal at age 11, lived 15 long years with me. Then, since the age of 13 I have taken care of animals that were not mine, normally for weeks at a time. I’ve bottle fed and fostered kittens. I’ve helped find homes for animals that would have otherwise been sheltered and I’ve rescued abandoned cats. I currently have 3 cats and 1 dog who’s over 60lbs of muscle! I treat pets as family and would treat your animal just the same. A meet and greet is preferred so that both me and the dog are familiar with each other. If you are unsure what service to choose pick something and message me your needs so we can determine what works best and adjustments can be made :) I am willing to drive a distance depending on the service needed but please note that before confirming a booking, if the commute is long I may charge extra or have to decline. This would all be done in advance. Please keep in mind the weather when asking me to drive a long distance when say it’s icy or otherwise hazardous. Safety first :)! IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: About my schedule; I wish Rover would be more specific about time slots. I am available almost everyday at some point in the day. Please reach out with your request In advance to make sure our schedules work out. Please feel free to ask me any questions! Please note: I have not worked with aggressive dogs and would not consider it at this point in time. I have a fairly flexible schedule. Any conflicts will be let known in advance. Each day is different so please message me your needs in advance if you’d like specific hours that care is needed. Care will vary depending on the preference of the owner. Please let me know in advance all your preferences so that I can make sure we are a good fit.
About: I am an animal lover that provides pet sitting, walking, stop-by visits, and all the pampering your pet could ever need! I took a break for a while, added a human child to our pack, but I am back!! Being animal lovers, our family currently has one dog! Our puppy’s name is Kira and she is a 10 month old ball of energy. I am very experienced with animals as I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and fish. I love to care for the pets of our friends and family and would like to care for your pets as well! We love to go on long walks and throw a ball/frisbee in the back yard for playtime with our Kira. I can also assist in last minute visits or vet appointments as well as help with pet meds (insulin included) in your absence. My schedule is pretty flexible at times when I am not at my part time job and I’ll always do my best to assist your needs. Hope to hear from you! Mandi I’m currently working part-time, and have flexibility with my schedule. If there’s any days you don’t see his available, just shoot me a message! I am very big on pet safety, so I follow any rules my clients at forth to the letter! Whether it be walks or playtime, I will make your dog happy as possible in the short time that I’m there.

Kaitlyn has 4 years of professional pet sitting experience, along with a lifetime of personal pet experience. She grew up with any pet you can think of!

They both have a great understanding of pet body language and boundaries. They both can administer medication. We are currently offering pet sitting services full time with a few exceptions here and there. We are very flexible and ready to care for your pets any time. We understand that every pet is unique and we strive to make every experience personalized.

We will always send real-time updates to keep you at ease!
About: I’ve taken care of mainly pit bulls and sharpeis for neighbors and friends, I was in vet tech school for a year then transferred to focus more on agriculture field jobs. I’m currently a student at Kutztown University, my schedule is very laid back and open to watch any of your precious animals, I’m able to do early morning evenings and nights. I will care for your fur baby how ever you instruct me to, if they need crates I will crate, and if they need constant care and attention I will do that as well.

“Alexa's great!! She told me that Luna cuddled with her cat and got along well with her dog. I am appreciative that she was flexible with pickup and dropoff. Would definitely ask her again :)”
“Mary (and family) always take great care of Ginger. I am provided daily updates and can see how happy Ginger is. The best sign of great care is how she easily adjusts to being home as our happy pup. Thank you for all you do!!!”
“It was our first time boarding our Pet Benji with Manu and Dhruv. They welcomed him with love and shared pictures throughout the day. We definitely will recommend Manu and Dhruv!”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Jetzy was awesome with our little frenchie. She provided daily updates, and was able to accommodate his special needs. Our dog had a ton of fun with Captain. Would absolutely recommend and use Jetzy and family again!”
“Jim was great with our pups and treated them like family, which is exactly what I was hoping for. It was our first time boarding them outside of family and he was a great match! Re-entry was a breeze and our pups seemed happy as can be! Would highly recommend!”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“Lily is absolutely amazing. She treats our Charlie like family. She’s reasonable and listens to your questions and concerns. We absolutely love her! Thank you Lily for treating our Charlie as your own”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“Jean has been so patient and very wonderful with our Mila, and we couldn't be happier! Mila is a very shy dog but Jean was willing to work with her (and us) to make sure she was comfortable staying away from us for a week-long vacation. She sent us daily updates to let us know that Mila was getting along well and actually enjoying herself! At the end of the week, Jean also let me know how things went over all. I am so happy we found her! You can tell that she (and her family) truly care for the dogs they look after and spoil them with love while their owners are away. Mila is currently passed out next to me on the couch - now that's one happy, well-loved pup! We will absolutely utilize Jean's services in the future!”
“William and Kristen took EXCELLENT care of our dog Max. Their fenced in yard is huge, they walked Max daily, gave him his pills at night. The family dog Rooney is awesome-Max enjoyed his time with him. Also they sent several photos throughout his stay...Thank you so much!”
“Dolly is wonderful with my dog Roxy. She takes off a long walks football games and sends me regular pictures and updates. Doesn’t she remembers to give her her medicine Roxy comes back home happy and healthy.”
About: I have lots of experience administering medication to dogs and cats and I am comfortable doing so. I am also comfortable watching puppies, who are not potty trained, and cleaning up after them. I have had many puppies in my life and cleaned up a lot of messes. Depending on your requests (and your dog's preference), I will take your dog on a long (2 to 3 mile) walk a day or to the dog park (probably in Pheonixville: on Longford Rd). A dog deserves to get all his energy out, and I do not charge more for walking them. I recently moved to the Valley View Apartments in Pottstown, PA. I work part-time at The Home Depot (6 minutes away). I have a BA in English from Stony Brook University in NY and I am returning to School this fall, part-time, to begin a new journey in Engineering. I love dogs and I would enjoy watching them and taking care of them. I have had dogs my entire life, and due to my recent move, this is the first time in my life I am without them in residence. Your dog(s) is free to go and sleep wherever they want in my apartment. My dog, Oliver, is a gentle, sweet pup with random bursts of puppy energy. He suffers with epilepsy, which is where I gained experience administering (over fifty: not an exaggeration) pills a day to my dog. Our dogs and cats are free to go wherever they want at the house back at home and when they stay here at my apartment. Although I am not living with them currently, I believe taking them out either for a long walk or to the dog park for at least forty five minutes is essential.
