“Dave provided outstanding care for my French Bulldog. His frequent updates gave me complete peace of mind, and it’s clear he treats every pet with genuine love and attention. I’ll definitely book with him again without hesitation!”
“Yuiko was an excellent sitter. She was able to be flexible with my schedule as I was traveling out of the country. She kept me updated with pictures and information. I have an older dog, and felt in total comfort and confidence in her skills and care. I highly HIGHLY recommend her.”
“Exactly what we were hoping for our two dogs. Rebecca was great at keeping us updated and sending pictures of them. The dogs looked like they had a blast during their stay and we would definitely have Rebecca watch our dogs again and recommend her to others.”
“Juliana was a great sitter for my pug, Riggins! Riggins stayed multiple nights at her house and constantly gave updates and pictures of all the fun he was having. I would highly recommend and would use Juliana again!”
“Jennifer and her family took awesome care of our puppy (a 3 month old Dachshund). It is apparent from the second you meet Jennifer that she is a lover of all furry creatures and we felt immediately at ease. While we were away, Jennifer sent frequent pictures and updates of our puppy and his activities so we knew what he was up to and that he was being loved and cared for. We feel lucky to have found Jennifer - 11/10!!”
“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”
“Amy was fantastic - we instantly felt comfortable with her husband and her (and, more importantly, so did the dog!). She was very detail oriented, sent pictures throughout Champ's short stay and made sure Champ got plenty of exercise. I also appreciated her policy not to take multiple dogs at once. We will definitely be repeating with Amy - the whole experience was great!”
“We did boarding with Mel for the first time this weekend after multiple days of daycare in the past! As expected, everything was great! Reviewed multiple photos of Cannoli throughout the day and he seemed very happy his entire time there! Would highly recommend!”
“This is our third time Cody has stayed with Emelie, and each time is wonderful. Her communication and concern are tremendous. Cody can be ….difficult, and she handles him with sensitivity and compassion. Highly recommend! (And I hesitate to say that bec she’s getting harder and harder to book!😂)”
“Shandara took care of my dog Freckles, as well as another dog, and her own for a few days. She did a meet and greet, sent me updates constantly, and was very professional. I would have her sit again for me.”
“Kristina took amazing care of Darby!! She bought her toys and treats. I could tell Darby had a great time and I enjoyed my vacation knowing my dog was in good hands :)”
“Rachel was a fantastic pet sitter for our frenchie Josie. She was so attentive, kind, understanding and thoughtful. Josie was welcomed and felt right at home immediately. I would recommend Rachel to anyone who needs exceptional care for their dog.”
“Christin was great with Santos! He seemed so happy to be there. It was apparent that she is a natural dog lover who appreciates different canine personalities. She cared for him during the most trying times of doing so with any dog, involving historic cold weather. And went above and beyond the duty of just 'watching him'. Communication was great and I will not hesitate to use her again”
“Bryce was available on short notice and remained responsive over DMs throughout our interactions. I got lots of photos and updates on Wallace during his stay. I would recommend anyone to place their pet in Bryce's cade.”
“Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!”
“Rhea did an amazing job taking care of Tommy and providing me updates throughout his stay. He was extremely happy from what I can tell, and seemed to enjoy his time with Rhea. Thanks again!!!”
“Tamikia came through clutch when I needed a last minute sitter for my fur baby and she took excellent care of him. She is the most responsive host you’ll ever encounter and she sent regular updates of Brodee without prompting which I really appreciated since it was his first time with her. Definitely worth the trip over the bridge (I’m from NJ)!”
“Pepsi had a fabulous time with Renee and Toffee. They were welcoming and very accommodating of our schedule (flexible with pick up/drop off). Sent regular photos and updates, took Pepsi out on multiple walks in a day, and played a lot with Pepsi. Highly recommend, Renee!”

“Sydney is truly the best. I am still clueless as to how she manages to get my scaredy cat out from under the bed for pets every single time!!! She’s incredibly reliable, communicative, and always reassuring- especially when I have extreme separation anxiety about leaving my babies. I’m so grateful to have found someone I completely trust with my cats and would absolutely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Like always Rhea was wonderful. She cleaned after my cat threw up and made sure she updated me about each visit and took plenty of pictures. Traveling when she is taking care of my cat makes my trip so easy”

About: I've been around cats for most of my life and understand that no two are alike. Some are playful and social, while others prefer their space - and I enjoy getting to know each cat's unique personality so I can care for them in the way they're most comfortable. I've cared for my own cats as well as those of friends and family, handling everything from feeding and fresh water to litter box maintenance, playtime, medication (if needed), and providing companionship while their owners are away. Whether your cat wants to chase a toy, curl up beside someone, or simply have a familiar routine maintained, I'm happy to follow their lead. As someone who is dependable, detail-oriented, and organized in my professional career, I bring that same level of care into every visit. I'll carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I also offer a complimentary 20–30 minute meet-and-greet before your first booking so we can get to know each other, review your cat's routine, and make sure everyone feels comfortable before your trip.
“Ali took great care of my cat while I was away for two weeks. She always sent pics and was able to problem solve when my cat knocked over her feeder. I was very nervous leaving my cat for the first time but felt at ease with Ali caring for her.”
“You were awesome thank you so so much. You really saved us last minute and it's so appreciated! If we ever need another sitter we know who we'll go to!”
“She did an excellent job taking care of my 2 cats. They were happy with her for every visit and always gave me updates, she seems to take great care for both of them and I would love to make her my cat sitter again!”
“Julia is very nice and personable. She was very responsible in coming on a regular basis, twice a day, to take care of my two cats and was diligent on sending photographs! I would recommend Julia. I feel like my cats were well taken care of and seemed happy when I returned.”
“Hannah was amazing to our Gritty Kitty and took such good care of him! He had all the pets, food, and treats he could ever wish for and looked happy in all the pictures she sent!”
“First time rover user and Wayne was great! He was responsive and kept me updated everyday I was away. I would recommend him to anyone who needs drop by services.”
About: I grew up with a cat in my home at all times. Scooping litter, playing, and cuddling was an everyday thing! We took in my aunts cats when I was young and I cared for them most of my life. In 2021, I fostered kittens for 2 months so I am used to all ages of cats! I have my own happy kitty at home (his name is Noodle)! I would love to meet your cats!
“Alexa did a great job watching over my two kitties while I was away. They had fresh food and water, fresh litter, and overall seemed to like Alexa very much. It was obvious they felt very safe and comfortable around her. I am looking forward to having Alexa WatchBox er my pets in the future!”

“Our 4-month puppy LOVES going to daycare at Emelie’s! He has a great time with his playmates and comes back home happy and tired—never overexcited or stressed out. Emelie is able to take care of a lot of dogs, let them play and rest, and even give them love. She has a spacious home and a great fenced backyard where her 4-paw guests can run, play, and go to the bathroom. Highly recommended.”
“Our Bruno was in great hands with Mel. She was very communicative and responsive throughout his stay and she provided many photo updates. Bruno was happy and exhausted after his stay and it was clear that he was in great hands. Would highly recommend her !!”

Millie clearly had a very fun day at Dejah’s house :) I am absolutely going to book with Dejah again for daycare while I am at work and would 100% recommend her!!”

“Electric & Crescent are awesome. Odin had a great time with them and their lovely cats! The communication was great, they're easy going, they sent pictures constantly on how Odin was doing and I couldn't be happier to see him enjoy playing and cuddling with them. Odie is definitely coming back! Thank you!”

About: About Me Hi, I’m Ann! I work from home and truly enjoy having a furry companion by my side throughout the day. I know how important it is for dogs to get daily walks and fresh air—so I make sure every pup in my care gets plenty of exercise and fun, rain or shine. Honestly, I think I enjoy our walks just as much as the dogs do! Why Choose Me? What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong passion for animals and the deep bond I’ve always shared with my own pets. I grew up surrounded by animals, which taught me to understand their needs and emotions on a deeper level. I believe every dog deserves personalized care, lots of affection, and a safe, loving environment. My Home I share my home with two friendly cats who prefer relaxing in their own space when we have visiting dogs. This helps keep the environment calm and comfortable for everyone. To make sure each guest gets the care and attention they deserve, I only board up to two dogs at a time. Your pup will enjoy a cozy home setting, plenty of personal attention, and lots of cuddles. I can’t wait to meet your dog and welcome them into our little family! ~Ann I am self employed and work full time at home ensuring that your pet will get the attention they deserve and need. They have easy access to the backyard as well. The backyard is fenced in. I have never allowed my dogs to sleep on my bed nor sofa but they have their own ottoman to stay close to me while I watch TV and the comfort of a dog bed and/ or crate. My home is peaceful ☺️
About: Hi, my name is Shandara. I live in Roxborough and I have a Standard poodle named Biscotti. Biscotti and I love to go on long walks and explore the neighborhood. If you live in the area, you’ve probably seen us around! Biscotti is so adorable and we love to try fun haircuts, so he tends to attract a lot of attention. I’ve taken care of pets since I was a child. Growing up, my family had dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, and fish. I’ve had my own dog now for 5 years and I’ve been trusted by many family members and friends to care for their pets. Having a fur baby myself, I understand the struggle and anxiety that come with needing to find the right care. We all hope for someone responsible and loving who will make our pet feel right at home. My hope is to be that person for you. My goal is to provide exceptional care so you can enjoy your time away knowing that your loved one is in good hands. I recently left my 9-5 in Investment Operations to pursue my dreams of working for myself. I’m home all day, every day of the week, so I have plenty of availability to care for your fur baby. Finding the right caretaker is an investment and you can rest assured you’re making the right decision with me! I have a small fenced in yard and one friendly dog who would be happy to keep your fur baby company. I’m happy to work with you to ensure your pet is safe & comfortable whether in your home or mine. Safety is a priority so pets are never left together unsupervised.
“Mary is amazing, I keep going back to her. She gives great updates and is not shy on giving details. She cared for my dog in the snow and kept him happy and warm. She is so sweet and my dog was so excited to see her. I would recommend!”
“Rhea was amazing! Olive had such a great time with her and her pup! She was able to answer all my questions and made me instantly feel at ease leaving my pup with her. I would absolutely rebook in an instant!”
“Donte was great with Blue. He really helped us out with a last-minute weekend daycare booking, and Blue was very excited to go back. We received photos and videos during his visits and we will definitely look to Donte for future daycare visits.”
About: I used to take care of my son's dogs for many years, as well as dogs from our neighbors. Our house has great temperatures inside and outside I am at home most of the time, since I work from home. I can spent a lot of time with pets. Our neighborhood (Manayunk) is very safe and not noisy. I can host pets, we have a large patio. I have security cameras un our fenced patio. I also have a doggie door, so pets can exit/enter on their own.
“Enes and Stephanie took great care of my Thusnelda. They communicated well and sent lots of updates. Thusnelda also had a great time playing with their dogs. Thanks so much!”

“Anthony helped with walks for our two dogs over a long weekend and did great with them! He was easy to communicate with, reliable and professional. Would recommend!”
“Jordan was great with Penelope. She’s a big girl with a lot of personality and he took her on a great walk. He was communicative the whole time and sent very cute pictures.”
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember! I started dog walking at 16 and have been volunteering at local animal shelters since I was 18, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and even reptiles, so I’m comfortable handling different personalities and care needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to treat your pets with the utmost care and ensure they’re happy and safe while you’re away. I work full-time so I offer all services, but for house sitting and house boarding, I can provide potty breaks between 4-8 hours. I always treat your home with the same respect and care as I would my own. While caring for your pets, I make sure their routines stay consistent—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just relaxing together. I’m attentive to details like keeping feeding areas tidy, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring your home stays secure while you’re away.
“Ashley is the BEST! She has been so kind and patient with my nervous and timid rescue dog, going above and beyond to ensure that my dog is comfortable with her and trusts her.”
“Colin is the only person I trust with my dog Jake. Jake is 98lb and doesn’t particularly care for other dogs. I really searched for someone who would be able to physically handle a large, strong dog. Colin immediately understood the need for Jake to get more “substantial” exercise. Colin walks, runs and plays with him for a solid hour every day and I can see a big difference in Jake. Colin is also just a really nice person, trustworthy and reliable. He really loves animals and it shows!”
About: I love animals, basically all animals! I have grown up with cats and dogs, and feel that I know the ins and outs of the "pet world". I may have favorite breeds, but I love them all, both big and small- I love learning about new breeds, so bring it on! I have worked with pitties doodles, a jackchi, and Goldens so far from Rover! I would love to spend time outside, playing, relaxing, and exploring with your dog (and am happy to care for cats if you have those, too!). I am currently unemployed and looking for some part time gigs (like dog walking) to fill my days. I am very open during the weekdays in Roxborough. I will treat your pets and your home just like they are my own. Keeping things clean and tidy is a very easy ask for me.
“Nico has been great. Tessa is so happy when he comes to the door to get her, and she's tired when she gets home. That's always a good sign. He gives her the exercise she needs and he obviously knows and loves dogs. I highly recommend Nico.”
About: I am a proud pet parent to two fur babies, a pug and tabby cat. Our pets are important members of our family. Your pet will get the love and care they deserve while you are away. I know the importance of trusting a good pet sitter. I work part-time. I have flexibility in my day as well as evenings and weekends. I have a lot of availability in the summer as well. I can care for pets in my home. They would be a good playmate for my dog. We have a fenced in yard. My dog loves walks. I would follow your specific instructions when coming into your home.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for most of my life. I got my first dog around age 11 and have had multiple dogs over the years, along with a ferret, hamster, and fish. I’ve also helped care for family members’ dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Animals have always been a big part of my life and continue to be. I truly enjoy being around them and caring for them, and I always joke that one day I’m going to end up with my own little farm because I want every animal I see! I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to take breaks for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, or whatever a pet may need. My daily routine is pretty laid back, so I have the time and flexibility to give pets plenty of attention and care. I’ll be caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I would always talk with the pet parent beforehand about their normal routine, what they’re allowed or not allowed to do, feeding instructions, walks, and any other specific needs. I’m big on following the owner’s instructions, keeping their pet safe and comfortable, and being respectful of their home and belongings.
About: I've been taking care of neighbor's cats and dogs since childhood, including overnight house sitting. I've had cats for most my life and have worked with big and small dogs, young and old, including dogs that need a lot of exercise. I have experience taking care of other domestic mammals like rabbits, chinchillas, rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, and hedgehogs, as well as exotic birds and reptiles. I'm a big animal over; I majored and worked in wildlife conservation, and am passionate about domestic and wild animals. I work freelance, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I am able to stay home a lot and be with the pets. I have a car to get to people's homes easily for daytime checkins/walks. Depends on the client's specific needs but usually for housesitting I stay at the house and am home often, so I'm able to give the pets attention and care, and let them out for bathroom breaks and walks regularly as needed. I can do basic household stuff like take out trash, clean up after pets, water plants, whatever is needed.

“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!”
“My last dog sitter stopped doing overbites and only does doggy daycare now, and a friend told me about Rover. Danielle is wonderful. She’s very responsive, super nice and very professional. She is proactive, great with communication and clearly loves animals. Her dog Jones is very easy going. Will definitely use her again!”
“This is our third time Cody has stayed with Emelie, and each time is wonderful. Her communication and concern are tremendous. Cody can be ….difficult, and she handles him with sensitivity and compassion. Highly recommend! (And I hesitate to say that bec she’s getting harder and harder to book!😂)”
“Shandara took care of my dog Freckles, as well as another dog, and her own for a few days. She did a meet and greet, sent me updates constantly, and was very professional. I would have her sit again for me.”
“Our dog regularly stays with Brian when we travel and every visit has been wonderful. Brian keeps us updated with information and pictures and our dog comes home well taken care of and very happy. Brian is a terrific sitter and I highly recommend him.”
“My dog was very reluctant to leave and that's how you know a caretaker has done a great job. Gabriela and her husband both are genuinely nice people who love dogs. What more could you hope for in a caretaker?”
“I am so so glad I found Victoria on Rover -- highly recommend if you need a sitter for your animal bb! <33 My dog has some health issues which affect his diet, and is a generally shy / anxious lil guy (like myself), and I can't express how grateful and secure I felt knowing Theo felt safe, cared for, and happy while I was away. Victoria has so much experience and compassion working with animals, and you can absolutely tell by her kindness, attentive care, and communication. I appreciated every message and cute picture of my pup Theo on walks, smiling, and relaxing with Victoria (and Remi, Nova, and Luey!) In addition, I appreciated the add-on booking allowing Victoria to come pick and drop Theo off. The ease of the booking and Victoria being such a lovely sitter eased so much of my mental load and stress of traveling and being away from my pup, and I can't recommend her enough. I think Theo says woof in agreement, since he came back so happy :) This was my first time booking with Victoria but I am so happy to have found a wonderful sitter and would love to rebook when I will need one for Theo again :)”
“Tim was very responsive and took great care of Yuna. He was open to a last minute meet & greet and provided lots of photos of our pup throughout the day. We really appreciate his attention to her and would book with him again!”
“I had to go on something like 6 trips over the past couple of months and booked Jeffrey every time. He is the best dog sitter I have ever hired. He is extremely flexible, an excellent communicator, kind, and has a great, safe space for dogs to play inside and outside. You will not go wrong booking with Jeffrey.”
“Jake was absolutely fantastic!! It was our first time ever using Rover and he made us feel very at ease dropping our dogs off. Would highly recommend Jake and will definitely be using him again!”
“I was so thankful to Allison and her daughters for taking such good care of my senior dog . My dog starts to become agitated the moment I leave him . I was so worried but I received a text and picture about an hour and a half later showing my dog relaxed and cuddling with one of her little girls❤️I received regular updates and pictures. My worries about leaving him were quickly put to rest . Allison and the girls treated him like their own. I am forever grateful. I cannot recommend Allison enough. 10 stars !!”
