They are true dog lovers and our sweet Oz had a very nice stay with them. Thanks so much Joe and Bonnie!”
“Gabby and her family are amazing! Our dog Lola was so relaxed and happy to spend over a week there. Even in the photos we could see how happy she was. Gabby sent us a great update every day, took Lola on lots of walks, and asked a lot of questions about how best to care for her.”

“Steph took care of our new kitten every morning while we were away for a week on vacation. Her level of communication and care was evident as soon as we met her! We felt extremely at ease knowing that she was looking in on our cat - making sure he had playtime, was fed and all the other “fun” pet things happened while we were out of town. She sent us a ton of pictures and updates along the way too! I would wholeheartedly recommend Steph to anyone and look forward to having her again when the need arises!!”
“Kristi took very good care of our cat when we were away. We will definitely keep her in mind for next time and appreciate all the beautiful photos of her while we were away. Mind was at ease knowing she was getting good care.”
“Rebecca was amazing! She always responded immediately when I reached out and I immediately felt comfortable after meeting her with her caring for our cat. My children looked forward to the daily updates and pictures she would send and so did I! Every picture she sent showed just how comfortable and happy our cat was while we were away. We just got home and she also took care of our house as if it was her own - everything looks great. I will absolutely reach out to Rebecca again the next time we travel!”
“Cathy was all I could have hoped for in a caregiver for my sweet kitty. She was loving and followed my directions carefully. Philly was happy to see me when I got home, but calm and content. She had eaten her normal amount of food and Cathy sent pics of Philly playing! The pics were very reassuring. Thank you Cathy.”
“This was my first time working with Katie and I’m so glad that I met her through Rover! Katie took fantastic care of my two fluffy kitties and was incredibly professional in her care and communication. She let me know if there were any changes to eating/ bathroom habits and made sure my kitties got lots of playtime. 12/10 highly recommend!”
“Isaiah is such a blessing. Isaiah was quick and easy to communicate with. (ProTip: message from the Rover app directly, not the SMS text that you get from Rover.) Isaiah quickly made a plan to come over and meet my 3 Maine Coon Cats. He asked all of the right questions, things I didn't even think of. We made a plan for next month, but when a last minute weekend trip came up, Isaiah was right there for us. He sent Great Pics of our kitties and I could tell they were very comfortable with him. When we've left the kitties all alone for 48 hours once before, it took days for them to relax into their regular personalities after we returned. Not the case when Isaiah cared for them. They were chill and happy, as usual. I know that he cared for them and gave them lots of pets and brushes. Isaiah is a Top Notch and Trustworthy Caregiver.”
“Amanda has been great with drop-in visits for our two kitties. She's always responsive and great with updates. We always miss our kitties when we're away, but we know they are in good hands with Amanda.”
“Lucy was very attentive to my cat, Colby, and kept me well informed with pictures which showed all her arrival times as well as a happy cat. I will definitely ask her to cat-sit again!”
“Rosemary is an angel !!! With the recent heart shattering diagnosis of terminal cancer in my boy Oreo, Rosemary has been a wonderful part of the care circle. It’s been a tough journey and Rosemary’s updates and her sweet words have given me some Peace of mind while I’m away at work.”
About: I grew up with cats and have experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities. I regularly cat-sit for my sister, who has four cats, and have assisted my aunt with volunteer cat care. My experience includes feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, playing with cats, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away.
“Sondra is an excellent cat sitter! She connected with Shadow immediately, and fed him as agreed. I will continue to hire Sondra for future visits with Shadow.. i approve of her cat sitting skills?”
“Lee was wonderful! She came 2x a day to feed and give my senior cat medicine. Lee sent us regular updates and pictures daily so that we knew how he was doing. Thank you so much for everything!”
“A few days before our international trip, we stumbled across the Rover site. It was serendipitous, as was our luck in finding Amber. She was everything we wanted in someone who would be in our home and taking care of our cats. She is professional, organized, smart, hardworking, down to earth, and considerate. When we met for our consultation, we were very impressed with her, as well as very reassured by how receptive she was to our needs and situation. We were gone 16 days, and she kept in daily contact with us, providing updates and photos and videos. She went above and beyond, handling our worries thoughtfully and treating our cats as a as though they were her own. Our cats are indoor/outdoor, and Amber was flexible with her schedule so as to try to be in sync with their patterns, in addition to her other obligations. She offered our cats shelter, food and water, treats and playtime, cuddles and reassurance. And in doing so, she gave us tremendous peace of mind. When our one cat would go exploring for extended periods, Amber was mindful to track her adventures. She even took the initiative to look for her if to much time has passed since T had come home. Amber also checked in with us about the house and property, and made a great impression on my dad and sister (who came by and appreciated her efforts too). We can verify that our cats took to her as well, as we had cameras set up and saw how responsive they were to her! :) One of our biggest challenges taking this trip was what we were going to do about our cats (this was our first time away since we adopted them and we know our situation is a little unusual). We are so very grateful to have discovered Rover, and we are 100% going to book Amber and to recommend Amber, wholeheartedly, for future plans.”
“Rachel was great! She was on time each day and really helped me out when I wasn’t able to handle some of the cat chores myself. She’s very polite and has a great personality. We would absolutely have her care for our cat again and would recommend her to others!”

Your dog will be treated like family, with all the attention and care they deserve.
“Gabriela is the best! She went over and beyond to make my son feel comfortable while he enjoyed his stay. Thank you so much for taking care my lil man. I will definitely be rebooking in the near future!”
“Becky was patient with my nervous puppy. She was very flexible with time changes and schedule changes. My dog came home tired from playing and multiple walks. Would use this sitter again”
“Joe and Bonnie took such great care of Leo. They were so kind and caring, sent updates and photos. And Leo was so happy when I picked him up. I never worried while he was in their care. I would highly recommend them!”

“Maryori was 12/10! Not only did she take in Cooper last minute she was very sweet and accommodating. She kept me updated on Cooper the entire time. You won’t regret keeping your pup with her. This was the first time but it won’t be the last I book with her!”
“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!”
“Mariia was terrific with my adorable Maltipoo puppy Gino. She was very kind and professional when we first met. Ensured I was comfortable with the space. Gino seems totally chill and happy since I picked him up from daycare. Great experience.”
“Lainey and her husband were so great to my dog! They took her on a walk and sent me pictures, and they had her for less than a day!! My dog came back very happy and tired from a great day with them!”
About: I’ve built strong bonds with dogs over the years — including a deep connection with a pit bull I cared for consistently over a year, and ongoing care for a friend’s anxious dog who takes daily medication. I’ve also dog-sat for a coworker and have a history of being the go-to person for friends’ and family’s dogs, including pets who took to me right away. I’m comfortable with medication schedules, anxious or nervous dogs, and larger breeds, and I prioritize keeping dogs on their normal routine and feeling secure while their people are away. I’m currently job searching , as a long term social worker/therapist, which gives me a flexible daily schedule with plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. I’m generally free during the day and evenings, with consistent availability throughout the week to keep your pet on their routine. I have two cats of my own — a senior cat on a twice-daily medication routine and a younger cat with a sensitive temperament — so I’m experienced with calm, low-stress environments. I’m attentive to introductions, keep a clean space, and make sure pets feel secure and comfortable. While I don’t have a private yard, there’s grass right in front of my place, a larger grassy area across my street, and a Power Line trail just across the main road for walks
“Milissa was super responsive and accommodating for our last minute request! Our pup was kept company the entire day with walk and lounge updates provided as well. Very convenient option for anyone in the NE area.”

About: I've been pet and house sitting since grade school and will treat your pet like the member of the family they are. We all love our pets and want them taken care of in the best way possible. I have a flexible schedule and will make room for what you and your pets need when they need it. I have reliable transportation and am very punctual. I'm always on top of keeping doors and gates secured so there's no danger of an escape act occurring. Leashes and harnesses are essential for a good walk.
About: Throughout high school, my family fostered dogs through a local rescue, where we had the opportunity to take in dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve grown up with dogs and around animals and I have always been the go to pet and house sitter for friends and family! I have taken care of my own dogs in addition to fostering dogs for about 2 years and dog sitting for families for over 3 years! I am currently a college student at Lehigh University living on campus and I do have a car, so I am more than willing to stop by and care for your pets or dog and house ist for longer times if needed! Having experience in dog sitting in addition to fostering dogs and cats, I have a good understanding of how to care for a pet and how to cater to their needs and their environment, no matter their size, temperament, or age!
“Alex walked my dog Nala a few times last week, and everything went well! She took to him right away. Alex had also been patiently getting to know my challenging rescue dog Gilly, and he's been great about the slow introduction we need for him. Thanks Alex!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of our girls! You really went the extra mile to meet us and make sure this was a good fit. Your detailed notes and photos brought a big smile to my face while I was away. It really means a lot!”
“Simba completed his first week of walking with Tim, and he is loving it! Tim is very friendly and always on time. He gives us regular and plenty of updates about the walk- the route, potty/pee-pee breaks, and of course many photos of our fuzzball on the walk <3 Simba is very comfortable walking with Tim, and I can tell that he looks forward to his walks with him already.”
“Brooke & Matt recently provided some dog walking services for our highly energetic dog Max. As a dog owner who has used Rover many times in the past, I know it's always a concern leaving your dog with someone new. It was obvious from our first meeting that Brooke & Matt are two very responsible animal lovers who provide excellent care for the animals they are looking after. They even took Max for a run to help him burn off some excess energy, which he loved!! Your pets will be in very good hands if you decide to use Brooke & Matt for your pet care needs.”
“Becky and Christian are awesome dog walkers!!! I have been having a lupus flare and couldn't walk my dog myself, so they took over for me! They are punctual, kind and my dog loves them! I will absolutely be using them in the future”
“Rosemary was amazing! she made sure my fur baby was well taken care of and even spent time with her while it rained. Reese loved her and we will definitely be hiring Rosemary again! Very reliable and caring. 100% recommend”
About: I have been dogsitting since I was about 14 years old for my neighbors, and in adulthood have become the go-to dogsitter for many of my friends. While I am not at a point in my life to have a dog of my own, I absolutely love them and have experience caring for my family dog, which is why people trust me with their babies. This started as an opportunity to get some much-needed dog time, but I have turned it into a side hustle as well! I am currently in between jobs so my schedule can be very flexible including morning, day, and night time hours. I am originally from Hatboro, PA and will be moving back there from Chicago in July. I am available beginning July 14th. I will take care of your dog or cat as if they are my own. The main reason I began pet sitting is because I love them so much, but I’m not in at a point in my life to take on having one on my own. I have extensive experience with walking and in-house sitting dating back 15 years.
“We’re so happy we found Rachel. We just got a puppy and really needed help during the work week to let him and our other dog out. She was very professional, friendly and took to our dogs right away. She leaves prompt info on the walk and replies right away with any scheduling needs. Highy recommend her services!”

“While Melanie was walking my small dog, a large dog escaped its fence and attacked both Melanie and my dog. Melanie, unconcerned for herself, picked up my dog and fended off the large dog sustaining bites herself. She handled the situation very professionally and made sure my dog was safe and secure before getting medical treatment herself. I will forever be grateful to her and would recommend her services to anyone who wants a dog walker who goes above and beyond.”
“Katherine was so good with our dog Fergus! She gave such good details on his behavior and how he did on his walks. Being a puppy still in training, it was good for us to know how he did while we were away from him and had Katherine walk him for a few days. She really went above and beyond our expectations by cleaning up a mess that our dog caused after eating a couple books while we were away! Thanks Katherine!”
