“Phenomenal dog sitter. I boarded my two dogs with Jeffrey for Christmas week. He provided updates and pictures each day in a consistent and clear manner. He took great care of my dogs, and my dogs always have fun with Jeffrey's dog, Lily. I will continue to hire Jeffrey as my main dog sitter for as long as possible.”
“This was our second time using Kathleen. She’s the best, very accommodating and treats our Maxey like her own pup. We feel very lucky to have found her and will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Rover has delivered positive sittings for sure, but this one really felt like the perfect experience. It's important that we leave our dog with someone who is pet experienced, and has the right amount of time & a safe setup. But in this case, not only is the house nice/roomy with a large backyard, but also it authentically feels like Jennifer and her daughter & husband are enjoying the experience as well. I feel like dogs respond to genuine affection, and that makes all the difference for us. Jennifer took pictures of her husband comforting Moose, and gave us stories about her daughter sleeping with him in her arms. This makes us want to give him this delightful experience everytime we are forced to travel without him, if possible. Tonight he is sleeping like a baby ever since we got home, likely because of the exciting time that he has had in the last few days Thank you Jennifer for keeping him so entertained while we were gone!”
“Hiring Dana to dogsit Buster was the best decision. We usually board him at the vet, but wanted a change so that he would have a more social, active and fun experience. Dana was thoughtful, caring, communicative and flexible throughout the entire process (from booking to pickup). She took excellent care of Buster with specific attention to our requests. She sent us many wonderful photos of his daily activities, which included several nature and park walks. Buster had his own little vacation exploring new places while we enjoyed ours in complete peace of mind. We happily give Dana the highest praise and rating with respect to our experience with her. She is a true animal lover and a nice person.”
“The BEST boarding in the Philly suburbs area. Yuiko kept us updated and was very flexible when my flight was cancelled and delayed. Sam loves staying with Yuiko. Thank you Yuiko, we will be back next time!”
“Mary was great! We especially enjoyed all of the pictures she sent while we were away, the communication was wonderful. We will definitely be booking with Mary again.”
“Gabriela is an extremely warm and compassionate sitter. Her home is clean, bright and welcoming. She's very interested in knowing all you dogs need and loves to send pictures and updates throughout her stay. I highly recommend her and most definitely use her again!”
“Mariia was a wonderful sitter to my dog. She was kind and always very quick to respond to any questions I had. She truly cared for my dog and I could see in the photos she sent that my dog was happy when we were away. I will ask her to watch my dog again!”
“Jacqueline took great care of my dog Gotti while I was away. She was responsive via messenger when I checked-in. She sent me pictures. Gotti was happy and tired out when we got back home!”
“Michael and Loraine took great care of Jax, our Bichpoo. You can tell they have had dogs and are true dog lovers. Jax took to them right away, thanks to their loving manner and welcoming warmth. We’re already booked for our next trip!”
“Lee was kind and attentive in her care of our 5 yo pug, Lucy. She provided updates and reassurance that Lucy was enjoying herself while we were away. Great care by Lee! We would absolutely use her services again.”
“Exceptional care for our Stella again on her good days and bad days as a senior pup with a chronic health condition. Ryan and his family go above and beyond to ensure she is loved and has the best care even offering vet trip. You can travel knowing your fur baby is in great hands.”
“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!”
“Our dogs love being with shamira and her family! We are delighted when we see photos of the dogs enjoying so many cuddles and so much attention. This is very reassuring to us, and also exactly the reason we choose for them to be cared for in the home. Just as importantly, Shamira has been wonderfully flexible, which is invaluable when leaving town to have one less thing to worry about!”
“Heather had her hands full with my 7 month old lab/husky puppy. She accepted the challenge and took great care of Meadow. I appreciated the updates and pictures. Would highly recommend Heather as a pet sitter.”
“Roseanne was amazing! I my dog Luxie with her for 2 weeks while we went to OBX. She checked in frequently, sent pictures/videos, praised my dog, bathed her and genuinely loved her. Luxie is normally very shy, timid and will not eat if I am not around. Roseanna and her boys were experienced, loving and kind to my pup! Would definitely use her again!!”
About: When my friend leaves her dog with me, she feels good because she knows I feed and play with him. And when he sees me, he is happy. I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your dogs ! I’m available boating on weekends. Thanks I have a large, enclosed yard where your dog can run and play freely and happily , I can easily create your dog if needed .Leave your baby in my hands.
“My sister-in-law is unable to walk the Ron while we were away, so we booked Devon to do so, and she brought her kids. Based on the photos & SIL reports, Ron loved having the kids walk him, loved all the attention, got to go to a local kids' baseball game, probably had more fun than I did on my weekend away. 10/10 would definitely hire Devon & Family again. Ron says "thanks for all the love!"”

“Lucy is the absolute best! This is my third time using her and I would not trust anyone else with my fur babies lol. She goes above and beyond, gave my cat medicine, and is super helpful. 5 stars, cannot recommend enough. Ty again Lucy!”
“Amanda was very nice! She did everything that we asked for our cats and our home while we were away. Daily check ins came with photos and little updates. Very appreciated!”
“I was kept updated & received pictures of my senior girl when while we were away for 12 hours. She was happy & content. Becky & Christian are great to deal with!”
“We had a great experience with Heather taking care of our cats while we were away. She was able to visit them a couple times a day, which really put our mind at ease. Heather was prompt, reliable, and communicated clearly throughout our trip. Highly recommend!”
“Emma is so friendly and a great cat sitter! She was very through in asking about their care and treated them well. My cats can be rambunctious but she did a good job at separating them for feedings and playing with them. She also sent great update photos with the rover cards throughout their care. Would highly recommend!”
“Emma was fantastic with our little kitty Luna, and very accommodating to last minute changes in our schedule! We definitely plan to use Emma again for peace of mind when we're out of town”
“Katie was so wonderful coordinating with us ahead of time as we planned cat care for our wedding/honeymoon, she was great with our kitties and our dog when she came by for a initial visit, she was flexible when I mischeduled a day, and she was communicative during the whole trip - I really appreciate her!”
“We were privileged enough to have Ally care for our two cats while we went on an extended trip to take care of family business. Without a doubt, Ally is a professional and very caring for the four footed family members in her care. She is a strong recommend. There was a minor medical emergency involving our cat scratching herself too deeply, leaving an open wound. She alerted us immediately and we were able to arrange for timely vetting. We're glad to have met her through Rover and encourage you to seek her out for pet sitting you need.”
“Jackie has been wonderful! It was amazing to see how quickly our cat bonded with her. I have a great deal of piece-of-mind while away that my cat is being very well cared for. Jackie is a great communicator (and pet photographer) :) She has also been very flexible and helpful when my schedule has needed changing. So happy to have met her!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jenna and will absolutely use her again. This was our first time hiring her to care for our cats, and she exceeded our expectations in every way. Jenna was communicative throughout our time away, sending regular updates and photos, and was not afraid to reach out with questions when needed. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our cats were in such attentive hands. She also cleaned up any pet messes and went above and beyond, helping with our garden while we were away. What really stood out was how quickly our cats warmed up to her. One of our cats is usually shy and tends to run and hide when meeting new people, but she stayed put and happily accepted head scratches from Jenna, a true testament to her calm and caring demeanor with animals. Jenna is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. We came home to happy cats and a well cared for house, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”

“Matt & Tara were great with my gal, Pebbles. They sent me a couple of photos along with messages letting me know she was okay, which was a relief especially since this was the 1st time using them, will definitely rebook with Matt & Tara”

About: My name is Christian. I am kind, gentle, and fun loving. I will walk, run, exercise, and play fetch with your dog and care for him/her as if he/she were one of my own. I will walk any dog, any size, age, or breed. I’ve always enjoyed dogs a lot. Your dogs will have such a fun time they won’t want to leave. I am available seven days a week rain or shine and my hours are flexible. No matter what, you can count on me to walk your dog. If you require any special requests just let me know and I will see what I can do. If you need your pet washed I can do that too. I look forward to walking your dog!
“Mary sent many photos and updates during my dog’s daycare stay with her. It looks like he had a great time with nice little adventures! I would book Mary as a sitter again, easy!”
“Oreo had a wonderful time at Mike's house! She enjoyed playing with Mike's sweet dog Trent as well as a few other four-legged guests in the spacious fenced backyard, and came home happy and exhausted. Mike was very prompt with communication and sent some fun pictures. Thank you!”
“Yuhan was able to care for my corgi Luna as I made a last minute daycare request. When I picked up Luna she looked so happy that she was smiling all night. That’s my biggest indicator that Yuhan cared for my fur baby as I would at home.”
“Jessica was absolutely wonderful with my puppy. She and her husband took the time to get to know us through a thoughtful meet‑and‑greet. Jessica then followed up with clear communication, made sure I felt completely comfortable before the booking, and ensured all details of the day were clear. Throughout the day, she sent regular updates and the cutest photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear that Jessica genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. My puppy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well‑loved. I would absolutely book with Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and truly caring sitter.”
“My labradoodle puppy Guinness is always so happy to see Roseanna and her family for a bit of doggy daycare, and they’ve even accepted him into their home for the day with little notice! He is always still happy when I go pick him up after a day of playing with them, and all the dogs. In addition to that we’ve gotten great tips and feedback from Roseanna. Guinness can’t wait for his next stay! Thank you!”
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
“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.”
“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!”
About: Hi! We’re Electra and Crescent. We love travel, food and animals! 🐾 We’re lifelong pet parents who have shared our home with cats and dogs for decades. We currently live with three cats of our own (2 belonged to my late mother) Kiki the senior Russian blue, Helena the toothless full figured queen and Charles Mr. Humpty Dumpty. We genuinely love caring for animals and understand the unique needs of picky eaters, seniors, energetic and active animals or pets who prefer calm, low-stress environments. We call Charles our “special needs baby” since he is neutered but loves to hump his cat toy (Matilda) Kiki was my mom’s cat who is a senior and has IBD aside from her IBD (which we are managing) she’s a very quiet, laid back cat that likes her quality time. Helena was my mom’s cat and talk about food focused! Despite having only 2 bottom teeth this thick beauty don’t let that stop her! 🐾 I’m Electra and I’m available most of the day. My husband Crescent works Monday–Friday during the day (usually finished by late afternoon). This gives us excellent flexibility for pet sitting: • Boarding at our home: We can typically do pet pickups early evenings or anytime on weekends. • Drop-offs: You can bring your pet anytime. We can also do pickups for you Monday–Friday after 5 pm or anytime on weekends. Since I’m home I can provide personalized, attentive care for your furry family members. Whether it’s longer walks, extra play sessions, or simply quiet companionship for pets that get lonely, we tailor our care to what each animal needs. We board cats (up to 3) or small-medium dogs (up to 2) at a time. We have a dedicated spare bedroom that works beautifully as a cozy “cat hotel” or “doggie retreat” — complete with a litter box, cat tree, twin bed, toys and TV for background noise. Your pets get complete free-roaming access in this room with no crates. Privacy with one family at a time to ensure a calm, stress-free environment for your pet with access to ring camera for boarding stays. We’ll ensure that your cats have a freshly clean litter box daily, interaction multiple hours a day, great window view for birdwatching and followed feeding routine. Your dogs will have plenty of time outside, I’m available and can provide multiple walks and engagement throughout the day, with comfortable indoor space for relaxation and eating routines. You’ll have peace of mind knowing your furry babies are safe and in a controlled space. We offer Ring camera access so you can check in anytime, plus daily text updates with photos and details about how their day went. When we visit your home, we’re extremely mindful of your pet’s normal routines. We’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and playtime if they crave it, or respectful space if they prefer quiet time — always with their comfort and happiness as our top priority.
About: Retired dog groomer and life long dog owner. I was a dog walker in Center City before I started a family. I was also a dog groomer for 10 years and have plenty of experience around all kinds of pets. I currently walk a few dogs in the surrounding area and have a flexible schedule as I work from home as a real estate agent. Our dog passed away during COVID, and we are currently dog less. I'm currently working from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available for boarding house trained, kid friendly dogs, week days and most weekends. I am also available to house sit in your home with your pet if you prefer. I can provide daily walks and/or yard play time and exercise, as well as feeding and admiring administering simple medications. In my home we have an unfenced yard, so I will walk your dog as per specific needs. We prefer pets not on furniture or bed, and would rather have owner provide something to sleep on. If not provided we do have blankets. We have 3 boys 16 and under so dogs would have to be kid friendly. Our boys love dogs and grew up with a doberman. They are respectful, calm and understanding of pet needs.

“Alex is the best! I hurt my knee and needed someone to walk my large pittie last minute. Alex was nice enough to work him into his schedule even though we have not worked with him before. My dog Alfie tends to pull in a leash and while he loves people, he can sometimes be picky about who walks him. However, he LOVES Alex and Alex does a great job of controlling Alfie on a leash. Thank you so much for your help!”
“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.”
“Bryn is such a sweetheart!! She did such a great job with our Posie!! She was so kind and patient and treated Posie as her own. She kept us up to date with texts, pictures and videos. Thank you Bryn for taking such good care of our girl!!?”
“Rosemary went above and beyond to take care of our Ruby! She gave her lots of love and attention, and made sure that all parties felt comfortable. She took the extra step of sending us pictures and updates, and updated us on her water intake which meant so much to us! We can't thank her enough for giving our girl all the love while we weren't able to when away ❤️”
About: I became a cat mom in 2019, and have since spent time volunteering at a cat shelter and a farm (taking care of kittens, piglets and goats!). I’ve always been drawn to animals and will take great care of your pets! I have a flexible schedule, and generally available both weekends and weekdays for a set period of time. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your needs! My preference is to take of pets in my client’s home, since I have a cat that does not get along easily with other animals. Depending on the duration of the pet-sitting, I can do day trips or overnights.
About: Hi everyone! My name is Emily. I am 23 years old, I finished my first year teaching! I have been dog sitting for the past 4 years! I am free all year around!I am really responsible and etc! I can dog sit at your house when you go on vacation,dog walk and do check in’s! I have 3 pets of my own 1 dogs and 2 cats! Hi everyone I am free all the time during the summer. I love animals! I can dog sit, dog walk and stop by during the day to check on them! I don’t have a fenced in yard. I have 1 dog and 2 cats that will keep your puppy happy. My dog gets along with anyone.
“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!”
About: I grew up with the most incredible yorkie-poo for 16 years, and I’ve been filling the void by following way too many dog Instagram accounts. I really miss having a dog around, so your dog will get a lot of attention and be in great hands. I’ve looked after pit bulls, a Shar-Pei, doodles, an Alaskan Klee Kai, and mixed breeds of all sizes. Whether your dog is big, little, high-energy, anxious, stubborn, or just wants a buddy nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I may find it hard to get work done because I’ll probably spend too much time hanging out with your dog. And if they’re into people food, I’ll respectfully disappoint them unless you tell me otherwise. I’m in a flexible stretch right now, doing job-search work, contract work, and projects mostly from home. That means I can usually build my day around walks, drop-ins, or hanging with your pet. I’m best for weekday daytime care, evenings, and some weekends with a little notice. If I have an interview, work call, or trip coming up, I’ll be upfront before booking so there are no surprises. I’m pretty careful and communicative by default. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep dogs leashed unless you explicitly say otherwise, double-check doors/gates, and send updates so you know your pet is good. I’m not going to freestyle with food, treats, medications, dog parks, or anything that could create a weird situation. If I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine.
About: I have been in the animal care business professionally for 8 years where I helped manage a local farm and goat yoga and dog sat for neighbors, friends, and family. I love animals and have always been around them growing up from horses to dogs. I promise to treat you pet with the love and compassion I would my own :) I am a current college student and being a sitter for Rover is my only employment at the moment. Outside of classes I have a lot of down time and look forward to helping care for your pet! I have a lot of experience with animals, especially dogs, so I am well versed in the regimen and compassion it takes to look after a pet. I am comfortable with overseeing/initiating playtime, crating, preparing meals, walking any size or breed of dog. Additionally I promise to show your pets the love I would my own!
