“Juliana is one word..AMAZING!!! I have used rover many of times and have never felt like I found my person until I met Juliana. She says has not been doing this rover thing for long but it sure seems like it. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her overnight. He came back to me the same way i left him. She responds quickly and also sent me plenty of pictures. I am for sure booking with her in the very near future. Thank you Juliana for keeping Melo safe.”
“Tamikia is so kind and dependable. And my dog seriously did not want to leave when I came to pick her up. I got photos and videos every day, and Tamikia was available before my trip to do a meet and greet at her house. My dog has dietary issues and sometimes comes home with an upset stomach when she is boarded with someone who has dogs and/or cats because of getting into someone else's food but that was not the case this time. I am going to book with Tamikia for my next trip!”
“Alex and her family were very welcoming. I like that they did a meet and greet just to ensure that my dog would be a good fit for them to take care of. My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”
“Carismeldi watched my pup Prada from Friday to Sunday and she was great. She kept me in the loop with pics and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Prada looked happy, comfortable, and totally at ease the whole time. She was easy to communicate with, super sweet, and you can tell she genuinely cares. I’d definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone needing a solid sitter.”
“First-time Rover user here, and I was definitely a bit anxious going in but I didn’t need to be. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend Andres. He’s easygoing, clearly great with dogs, and made the whole experience stress-free. My rescue chihuahua mix can be a little temperamental, especially around men, but Andres handled him without any issues. I also really appreciated the daily photo updates and quick check-ins—it gave me peace of mind knowing how my pup was doing. Overall, a really positive experience. Thanks again, Andres!”
“Rachel took amazing care our dog! He's a little, old dog with various issues and she made sure he was comfortable and happy. We look forward to booking with Rachel again soon.”
“Patty was extremely thoughtful and sweet to my senior dog for a week stay. I didn't have to worry at all, and he came back nice and tired and happy. He even made a doggie friend during his stay! Plus, she sent me some really great photos of him.”
“Felix was great with my dog nova. They made sure she was comfortable with the other animals in the house and stayed in communication throughout my trip. I have so many great photos from their walks and hanging out in the house. Felix is my first choice when I comes to Philly rovers”
“Jen went above and beyond with our pups. From the adorable updates to even getting Gaucho a sweater!! She made our Christmas stress-free knowing that the dogs were in great care.”

“Saya and David were great! Saya sent us pictures and videos and it looked like our Tanooki was having a fun staycation while we were overseas. It was our first time leaving Tanooki for such a long time but we had nothing to worry about, thanks to Saya and David. We will definitely look you up when we need to go away again. Thank you so much!!!”
“Rogelio was reliable and quick to respond to messages and requests for updates, which put my mind at ease while I was away. My dog had a great stay. Thank you!”
“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!”
“Daja took the best care of my dog while I was on vacation! She was very commutative and sent daily pictures. He was very well taken care of while I was gone!”
“My go-to sitter. My pup always has a great time hanging out with Sirius and Billie. Trey keeps me up-to-date and sends me pics and videos to show all the fun she’s having and put my mind at ease. Would absolutely recommend as a caring place to send their pup.”
“I was incredibly greatful Donte was able to watch Marley very last minute after someone else cancelled 2 days before and another ghosted me after agreeing. Marley has never stayed outside our house, so I (and Marley) was so nervous, but he seemed just perfect.”
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”
“Tony is my standard pet sitter for Nova! He sends pictures and videos throughout her stay and she loves to play with the small pups he owns. She will be back! Thanks Tony!”
“This was the first time we used Rover to board our boy Frankie, so I didn’t know what exactly to expect. Michell was very responsive via text, provided ample status photos of our dogs stay. This put me at ease and made me feel comfortable leaving Frankie with him. It was also a trial run to see how Frankie would do overnight at someone else’s house. He did great, Michell and Tiago took great care and we will be using them again for future longer stays! I highly recommend!”

“Barbara was amazing for our two kitties! She was extremely attentive to their needs. Stayed in contact every visit with updates. Made sure home and their spaces were clean everytime. Will absolutely have over again :) 10/10”
“Meghan checked in on my kitten and I am a first timer here. From start to finish, she was a pro. She sent me photos of my kitten corresponded with me and showed her love. Definitely using this again and highly recommend Meghan!”
“Another successful week of drop ins with Destinee! My cat is a grumpy old man but tolerates her visits well. It gives me great peace of mind knowing he’s so well cared for when I travel.”
“Super communicative and very sweet to talk with!! Updated daily with pictures and made effort to engage with both of my cats! My cats seemed comfortable with her and I will definitely utilize her again.”
“Rachel was great tending to our cats while we were away. They aren’t always the most welcoming but she handled their personalities well and made sure they got everything they needed!”
“Best sitter ever! Very caring for my recently spayed puppy making sure she got her meds and checked her surgical scar for me. Equally as attentive and caring to my second pup! Don’t know what I’d do without her. Don’t hesitate to book, you won’t regret it”
“Breanna has been nothing but great with our little girl, McKinley, a calico cat. Sends detailed information for each visit with pics & sometimes a video. She’s moving from our area so I’ll have to find someone else as caring as her. Highly recommend”
“Nicole takes her job seriously! She did a wonderful job caring for our 2 kitties! She was very dependable. She was warm & caring to our cats. Sending us pictures of our cats interacting with her made us feel at ease while being away from them! I highly recommend Nicole!!”
“Jada is excellent. Quick and painless with watching my beloved babies. Toward the end of the visit my VERY standoffish girl that usually stays away from people offered some cuddles which was pretty much a stamp of approval. Attentive, quick, and made sure to come on time to feed my babies. Will be booking again.”
“Olivia was excellent and I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a pet sitter. She took great care of both my cats and I felt extremely comfortable leaving them with her. She provided updates and pictures everyday and I can’t think of leaving my cats with anyone else if go for another vacation! :)”

I am comfortable with all ages of cats from neonatal to more seasoned and respect what a cat is saying with their body language. I love to play or snuggle or even sit quietly with your furry friend.
“Ana was absolutely incredible. I’m so grateful for her. She took care of our elderly, diabetic cat Hannah (who also has CKD) while my partner and I were away. Ana expertly administered the plethora of medications (oral and injectable) and checked Hannah’s blood glucose via glucometer. She was also extremely patient when feeding her and cleaned up after Hannah had a couple accidents in her bed. I was especially appreciative of Ana’s flexibility and attention to detail when Hannah’s needs changed shortly before my trip after we had booked. Ana was very communicative as well and sent us plenty of updates and pics during her check-ins. I would recommend Ana to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter who can manage complex cats like my own. A million thank you’s to Ana and I will definitely book with her again!”

“Liz is absolutely wonderful. We intend to use her any time for our dog sitting needs. She came on time, stayed at least the requested amount of time. She is a true animal lover and our dogs loved her back, she made easy friends with them. She provided us great peace of mind. I highly recommend her.”
“Amy is a wonderful cat sitter, she's attentive, caring and responsible. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to take care of their fur babies. Thanks again to Amy for cat sitting our babies!”

“Robbie and Shelby were great to work with! I know that Frankie had a fun time with their pups. I received lots of pics throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind. I plan to use them again for day care and boarding.”
“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.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Saya and David while they cared for my miniature dachshund, Astro, for 3 days of daycare. Even before meeting him, they took the time to ask thoughtful questions to make sure they understood his routine, personality, and needs. Throughout his stay, they were incredibly communicative, sending photos and videos that gave me peace of mind and showed just how much fun he was having. It was clear that Astro received plenty of attention, affection, and excellent care (by the second morning, he ran right into their house because he was so excited to see them again)! They were also very flexible and accommodating with drop-off and pick-up times, which made everything convenient around my work schedule. I truly felt that Astro was treated like part of their family. I highly recommend Saya and David to anyone looking for caring and reliable dog sitters, and I will absolutely be booking with them again!”
“My pup had a great day with Emily and Christine. They have a nice fenced yard, perfect for dog play. They treated her like one of their own and she came home tired and happy.”
“I found Christopher when I was new to rover and didn’t bother to look any further! He has been super accommodating, takes amazing care of my puppy, and has been a pleasure to work with through rover. Highly, highly, highly recommend!”
“Rachel was fantastic! My daughter and I were touring colleges in the area and needed a place for our dog during the tours. Jiminy was spoiled with cuddles and he definitely had a great time!”
About: I’ve owned and cared for cats, dogs, fish, rodents and reptiles for more than 45 years. I would be happy to share the love with your furry (or otherwise) family members too. I currently have a sheepadoodle that loves other dogs and people, so he would love to have a playmate to come and take walks and spend time with us. I currently work from home so I have plenty of freedom to spoil all the pets in my care. I do look after my 3 year old grandson sometimes so getting along with children would be an important quality if your pet should come to stay with me. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly sheepadoodle that gets along with both dogs and cats. We love to go on walks too.
“I was really nervous about leaving my 6 pound chihuahua with a new person while I went to work during the day. With 3 of 4 legs not working, and a weak bladder, Pinky is quite fragile. Her stay with Madeline was wonderful. She coaxed her to eat, separated her from all dogs except her little terrier, and was forgiving of Pinky’s incontinence. While I hope tomorrow at Pinky’s neurologist visit we can get some answers and Pinky will be strong enough to be left alone after the holidays, if we need daycare again we will definitely be back.”
“I did a meet and greet with Samantha and her resident dog, and I immediately knew that my little puppy would be safe and in good hands with her. She understands dog behavior and we watched and made sure that my dog would be nice to her sweet dog. The next day I dropped my doggie for some doggy daycare and as to be expected, he seemed a little nervous when I left him, and Samantha reassured me that after a few minutes, he would be fine -and he was. Just like other reviewers have noted when I went to pick up my little guy he did not seem to want to go home with me. He let me know with his body language that he was very happy and having fun. Samantha and her partner are genuine “dog people”. My dog is very selective with men and he immediately showed affection towards Samantha‘s boyfriend. They have the knowledge and patience you’re looking for.”
“Liz was great with only fur baby! She kept me updated with how Luna was doing throughout the day and sent pictures!! Looking forward to leaving Luna with Liz again, knowing she will be in greats hands!!”
“Lauren was great with Roxie! She was kind enough to help us out with short notice and made Roxie feel like she was right at home. Roxie is a senior pup with special needs”
“Super friendly and caring! Weiyu kept me updated about shiloh throughout the day. Took him out multiple times and showered him with love and hugs. He was very happy when i picked him up. Will definitely be bringing him back.”
“Emelie and family were a godsend as we were looking for a last-minute sitter for our beloved pup Duke. We were traveling from VA to PA for a track meet and we weren’t quite sure what to do with our 6.5 month old puppy Duke as non-service animals were not allowed in the stadium. After reaching out to a few sitters on Rover, Emilie quickly responded with her availability and was very accommodating! Duke seemed to enjoy himself, and that made us feel good. If for whatever reason we happen to be traveling back to PA, we will definitely consider booking with Emilie as our pet sitter. Not only was she SUPER friendly and loving to our Duke, but she was VERY responsive!”

“Skye was wonderful for my pup Olive. Before stopping by she wanted to know my pups likes dislikes and everything she could do for my pup to have a good time with her. She sent me pics and it made me know that my pup was in good hands while I was working. I definitely plan on booking her many times in the future. ❤️”

“Gianna is a true gem!!! I used her today to walk Bear and Bailee and I couldn’t be more pleased. She was punctual, followed all instructions to the letter communicated thoroughly, provided detailed information and explanations and provided pictures. There’s nothing more I could’ve asked for! I have found the perfect dog walker for Bear and Bailee! Thanks Gianna!”
“Olivia has been absolutely amazing with my two dogs. I've got a giant breed pup who isn't the easiest to handle (or the smartest), but Olivia has been great with him. She's also been incredibly professional, prompt, and handled the curveballs pets love to throw (like handling when one dog got an upset stomach and had an accident).”
“This was our first time using Rover and I think I picked a great dog lover. Tamikia was very responsive even with a last minute request. She also sent videos which helped ease my anxiety since we’ve never had anyone outside of family care for Lolo. I cannot wait to book again!”
“Kim was awesome I needed a last minute dog walker and she responded right away. She was very thoughtful and considerate asking questions about my dog. She kept me notified and sent pictures and she gad a great disposition and personality!! I never met her before and trusted her in my home with my dog and she made me feel reassured and confident I highly recommend her!”

About: Hello Fellow Dog Lovers! My name is Marisol and I love dogs! Whether you're happy, sad, sick or tired, dogs are always there for you. I am a dog walker because dogs are a huge part of my life, and helping someone coordinate a doggy drop in visit, taking care of their furry friend while they are on vacation or just a dog walk while you're at work brings me so much joy. I have many years of experience with different types of dogs. I can administer medicine or stick to strict diet plans. Whatever your dog needs to be happy and healthy I can do! I'm happy to answer any questions or concerns. Please reach out to me if you'd like to set up a Meet and Greet. I'm so excited to meet you. Marisol Available for dog walks, drop in visits or overnight in the pet's home. Let me know your needs, and I can see what we can work out. I will take your suggestion on your pets needs.

“Dante was amazing! Very personable and friendly. Always on time. Great communication, too. Our dogs loved him and I could tell he genuinely enjoyed walking them. We will absolutely use his services again and I HIGHLY recommend him if you’re looking for someone trustworthy to care for your furry friends!”
“Destinee did a great job of walking my dog, Remi! He can be very anxious but he seems very chill with her and she kindly listens to him when he stubbornly does not want to walk for too long, which I very much appreciate!”
About: I have been an animal lover for longer than I can remember. My soul dog, January, recently passed and until I'm ready for a new love of my life, I'll be a good aunt to yours! I have lived with and was responsible for the direct care of multiple dogs and cats over the years. I frequently dog, cat and house-sit for several close friends and family. I have experience with puppies, adult and senior dogs. (Seniors are my fav!) Giving meds is a skill I've gotten good at along the way. I take the responsibility of being entrusted with the care of your family member very seriously and will always follow written instructions when provided. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have! I have a hybrid remote work schedule (2 days remote, 3 in the office, weekends off). I'm in the office (near Broad and Spring Garden). For boarding, my hybrid schedule helps me be available for being at home for extended weekend stays. Depending on the need and location, I can do house-sitting and check-ins in many locations within the city and Delaware County. (If you found me from the Rover car magnet, still send your request over even though you will be prompted that you are outside of my house-sitting radius. Based on other things I have scheduled, I'm willing to travel to many locations!) I live in a twin home in Delaware County with minimal steps to the first floor from outside. My medium size backyard is not fenced in but I love walking in my neighborhood. Other dogs in my life have required long bouts of exercise daily so I'm used to even the higher amounts of activity to keep your dog tired and happy! I do have two long term foster cats that live in my home. For everyone's safety, I will keep them in a separate part of the house during dog boarding unless the dog has extensive experience living with cats.

“Tamikia is so kind and dependable. And my dog seriously did not want to leave when I came to pick her up. I got photos and videos every day, and Tamikia was available before my trip to do a meet and greet at her house. My dog has dietary issues and sometimes comes home with an upset stomach when she is boarded with someone who has dogs and/or cats because of getting into someone else's food but that was not the case this time. I am going to book with Tamikia for my next trip!”
“Carismeldi watched my pup Prada from Friday to Sunday and she was great. She kept me in the loop with pics and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Prada looked happy, comfortable, and totally at ease the whole time. She was easy to communicate with, super sweet, and you can tell she genuinely cares. I’d definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone needing a solid sitter.”
“First-time Rover user here, and I was definitely a bit anxious going in but I didn’t need to be. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend Andres. He’s easygoing, clearly great with dogs, and made the whole experience stress-free. My rescue chihuahua mix can be a little temperamental, especially around men, but Andres handled him without any issues. I also really appreciated the daily photo updates and quick check-ins—it gave me peace of mind knowing how my pup was doing. Overall, a really positive experience. Thanks again, Andres!”
“Jen went above and beyond with our pups. From the adorable updates to even getting Gaucho a sweater!! She made our Christmas stress-free knowing that the dogs were in great care.”

“My go-to sitter. My pup always has a great time hanging out with Sirius and Billie. Trey keeps me up-to-date and sends me pics and videos to show all the fun she’s having and put my mind at ease. Would absolutely recommend as a caring place to send their pup.”
“I was incredibly greatful Donte was able to watch Marley very last minute after someone else cancelled 2 days before and another ghosted me after agreeing. Marley has never stayed outside our house, so I (and Marley) was so nervous, but he seemed just perfect.”
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”
“This was the first time we used Rover to board our boy Frankie, so I didn’t know what exactly to expect. Michell was very responsive via text, provided ample status photos of our dogs stay. This put me at ease and made me feel comfortable leaving Frankie with him. It was also a trial run to see how Frankie would do overnight at someone else’s house. He did great, Michell and Tiago took great care and we will be using them again for future longer stays! I highly recommend!”
“Alysha was great with my dog. She gave me updates with pictures and videos. Chewy was worn out when I picked him up. Alysha is very friendly and a great choice if you need your dog loved and cared for.”
“Jasmine took great care of my dog, he played very well with her dog Sprinkles and got plenty of exercise! Would definitely have her take care of my pup again!”
“Pepper was so excited when she recognized Katy's house. It makes us happy knowing she loves Katy & Marco. We're so blessed to be associated with them. This was a long trip too and we received lots of pixs.”
