“Wow! We are so happy that we chose Gabriella to be our dog’s new sitter! Kiko acclimated to her home immediately. He even ate on the first day! We thought he would not have eaten for a few days. Kiko loved his long daily walks in the park! He loved being part of her family! Kiko is looking forward to his next visit!”
“I’ve booked with Roseanna several times now and I couldn’t recommend her more! Her and her boys are great with my pup, Lylla. Roseanna is super attentive and responsive and always keeps me updated on how Lylla is doing. We look forward to booking with her again!”
“Janet is a lovely woman who took excellent care of Grover while my husband and I were away. She sent us updates and pictures and answered my texts quickly. She was extra patient during our introductory meetings and made sure that our little terrier mix who is normally-wary-of-strangers was comfortable being around her and in her home. I highly recommend Janet and will definitely book with her in the future ☺️”
“Samantha was great! Very knowledgeable about dogs. She sent me a picture of her daughter reading Milo a book. Adorable! She kept me updated about Milo and informed me of a health condition with Milo. Very much appreciated!”
“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.”
“Milissa was amazing with Thor! Even with Thor’s separation anxiety, she was patient, attentive, and handled him so well. She was very communicative throughout his stay and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I could tell Thor was well cared for and in good hands. I would absolutely trust her to watch him again.”
“Maryori was the perfect choice for our fur baby Bentley. She was very warm and welcoming, and she made our boy feel right at home. He spent his birthday with her and she went out of her way to buy him a few gifts and treats which we appreciated very much! I will definitely book her again.”
“Kerri & Harry was so great with my Shih-Poo. We were looking for someone that would make him feel like home and they knocked it out the park - I could tell he missed them on our drive home. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a loving and safe place for your fur baby. We will definitely be using them again.”
“Hunter always has the best time with Cindy! She takes him to experiences and events he’s never been, and we’re so happy he gets to have enriching experiences with and without us. ❤️❤️❤️”
“We feel so very fortunate to have had Joe and his wife Bonnie care for our 13 year old Westie, Ozzy, for 9 days. They sent updates and pictures and made us feel comfortable and confident that Oz was in great hands during this extended stay. They are true dog lovers and our sweet Oz had a very nice stay with them. Thanks so much Joe and Bonnie!”
“Jennifer was everything that we needed for our puppy for long term boarding. She walked us through the process and exceeded all of our expectations. She kept is updated with daily videos and pictures of our Diana. This was our first time using this service but we feel we’ve found our go to person from here on.”
“Mary was awesome! She and her family loved my dog as if she were their own dog. She sent plenty of updates and photos. It felt so good to know my dog was well taken care of while we were away.”
“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.”
“Mary was WONDERFUL. I left my dog with her for 12 days, the longest I have ever been away from my dog. I had nothing to be nervous about as Mary kept me in the loop the whole time I was away. She was great at providing physical activity with my dog which is a huge part of her well being! They have a lot of yard space outside which is great for running around and made me feel comfortable! She was professional and timely with answering any of my questions about my dog. Was receptive to any special requests I had made for my dog as well which was great! I would 100% book with her again if I am going away! Also she sends photo updates which I LOVED!”
“It was a First time for me to leave my dog without us and at the beginning it was little stressful. But with Aliaksandra and her beautiful family all stress and worry was gone. 100 stars to her not five. Special thanks to her and her Mother. They really took great care of Bubu and made it feel as part of family. Thank you so much Aleksiandra and of course high recommendations from me. ❤️❤️❤️”

“Hardy is all things animals, from A to Z and everything in between. He didn't just watch our dog, he showed her love, he took care of all her needs, he cared about her. Plus the videos he sent clearly showed she had fun, which is a bonus. I hope Hardy is available the next time we need doggy daycare, he's No 1 for us. Thank you Hardy.”

About: Hello pet parents! I'm Danni and I absolutely love everything about dogs. They're so cute, sweet and playful! I've had a dog all my life until recently (apartment restrictions) and they have been various sizes and breeds. I have also been a dog walker and sitter for a company that gave me experience handling and interacting with shelter and elderly dogs; I also have experience giving oral tablet medication at specified times. I understand that not every dog has come from a happy home and I will put an effort into earning their trust (I've done so with two shelter dogs with severe anxiety and I love them) because I know that it will mean so much in the long run. Other than long walks on sunny days, I love playing with your pup's favorite toy and fetch is my favorite game. I can't wait to meet your furry friend!

“Brianna was the best. We had great communication before, during and after the drop-in. The photos were unexpected and gave me peace of mind. And thank you for doing this last minute. I don’t know what I would have done without you. Will be seeing you again!”
“Hardy did a great job looking after my kitties after my usual sitter was traveling. He showed up on time and was great at communicating. I got daily updates on my kitties and everyone was happy and healthy when I returned. Happy to have Hardy housesit again, I had complete peace of mind!”
“2nd time booking with Haley and once again she was amazing. My moms dementia has progressed and we took in a new cat after I booked with Haley so I asked her last minute if she could feed the new one and just check on my moms pets and she had no issues doing so. She is worth every penny and more. Thank you Haley!!!”
About: I have had a cat in my life since birth, and since they make my life better for being in it, I decided to do my homework to make sure I could be giving them the quality of life they deserve. The one in the picture is my pandemic baby, who I’ve had since 6 weeks old, named Tabby. Tabby is my pride and joy, and I will admit I’m a little smug about how may professionals have praised her training, especially because it was pretty much entirely led by her. I have taken care of dozens of cats in the last 15 years. Each cat has taught me something, from recognizing the difference between play and aggression to how to give shots. I would love to meet your cat!
About: Hi, I'm Amy! I'm a 27-year-old graduate student with a master's degree in counseling, and I'm excited to provide reliable, compassionate care for your pets. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I have two corgis that I raised from puppies, giving me hands-on experience with high-energy working breeds, puppy training, and caring for adult dogs. I'm comfortable walking dogs that are reactive, strong pullers, or need a patient, confident handler. I also have experience caring for a variety of small animals, including birds, rats, ferrets, and reptiles. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, playtime, or simply someone dependable to keep them company, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered and scaly!) family members. I currently offer weekend-only availability for dog walks and drop-in visits. While my weekday schedule is dedicated to work, I love spending my weekends caring for pets and making sure they get the exercise, attention, and companionship they deserve. If you're looking for a reliable weekend sitter or walker, I'd love to meet you and your pet! I take special care to make sure I follow all of the instructions left by pet parents. All things needed to walk/care for your dog will be placed back in a neatly fashion when I leave and I will ensure the home looks as good as when I arrived.
“April was absolutely wonderful as she took care of our cats, Goose and Luca. She followed all directions and kept in constant communication with us. Not only that, she took extra time to play with them and to just spend time with them. We will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and have cared for them my whole life. I also cat sit for neighbors and friends, providing reliable, loving care, playtime, fresh food, clean litter boxes, and plenty of attention while they’re away.

“What an operation she's got! She had meatball for about 6 hours and WORE. HER. OUT!!!! I can only imaging how much she played and how great a time she had. Meatball and I have more than a little separation anxiety for one another, so I don't like leaving her with just anyone. I will happily run back to Roseanna. Thank you, Roseanna. You made a terrible day, tolerable.”
“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.”

I offer a calm, pet-friendly home, regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention. My dog enjoys company, so your pup won’t feel lonely! I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and give medications if needed. I care for every animal like they’re part of my family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Every day I go for a walk with my dog — it’s a part of our day we all enjoy. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need. I take good care of my own dog by regularly washing her, trimming her nails, cleaning her ears and teeth when needed, and making sure she stays fresh and comfortable. I also give her deworming tablets on a regular schedule to keep her healthy. I pay close attention to hygiene and health to ensure pets feel their best.
“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!”

“Hardy and his daughter were absolutely amazing with Ziggy! From the very first moment, they made sure Ziggy felt safe, comfortable, and right at home. Hardy was so communicative — he called me with updates and sent pictures throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. What really stood out is that this was a last-minute request, and Hardy came through without hesitation. Ziggy genuinely enjoyed every moment of his stay. Highly recommend Hardy to any pet parent looking for someone who truly cares!”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter. Him being blind causes him to be sensitive but he was surprising comfortable with Emeline! She was nothing but nice and welcoming. She even sent pictures/updates of how our furbaby was doing throughout his time with her. You could tell she really cares for the pets. Definitely recommend her as a sitter! We are absolutely using her again in the future!”
“We had a last minute booking with Joseph for a funeral that was out of town for us. From the beginning, Joseph was super accommodating and sent videos and pictures throughout his whole stay.

About: Hi there! I’m a dog trainer and co-owner of Philadelphia’s first Dog Bus, a mobile doggy daycare. I work with dogs every day and can accommodate 1–2 dogs for boarding or daycare.☺️ Our groups are small and carefully selected, so your pup must be friendly with other dogs. 🙏🏻 I also have a 7-year-old daughter and a few other animals besides my own dog—a cat, rabbit, canary, and fish. ☺️ They’re all used to having boarding dogs around. My life is centered around helping dog owners & shelter dogs, so I work with dogs every single day. Your pup can go with us to our daily adventures on the Dog Bus! I always make sure my dogs & client's dog have clean water and regular meal schedule. Daily long walks are very important as well. I do my best to make their environment clean, safe and escape-proofed.

“Emily was great! Truly a lifesaver. I needed a walker last minute, my normal dog walker wasn’t available. After reading all her reviews I messaged her to find out if she was available the next day. She sent pictures and updated me throughout the visit. It was hot out so after the walk she hung out with Luna for the 30 minutes. Will definitely use her again and recommend her. Thanks again Emily!”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and love every type breed and size. I am the go to friend when a friend needs someone to come let their dogs out or watch them over a weekend. I have a 3 year old Pitt/Staffy that I rescued when he was very young. I work a typical 8-5 M-F for now as I just relocated here. If needing days covered outside my availability, given it would be a good fit and pickup/dropoff works with my schedule, I can try to accommodate. I block off any time I’ll be out of town and mainly just hang at home with my own pitty otherwise. We go on daily walks for the needed exercise and energy burn. My apartment has no yard but we have a great neighborhood to walk in and I have a lot of space as it’s three bedrooms. We have a dog park I go to for walks frequently and visit other outdoor dog parks and hiking trails. I have an extra crate if it’s needed and lots of toys.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from small to medium, from puppies to seniors! Along with that, I also have a senior dog myself, so I know best on how to handle them and care for them. I’ve interned at a doggy daycare, so I also have knowledge on taking care of multiple dogs at once and keeping their temper in check. GENERAL FYI: I will be free for services throughout breaks & holidays, but during the regular school year, I will be in state college for…you guessed it! College! I’ll have my break times listed below once I get that information in case if you want to book me ahead of time for holidays! I’m currently a college freshman working remotely!

So whether you need someone to walk your dogs every day of the week, or watch them for days, you can be sure that I definitely have the time for that! I’ll make sure that your fur babies will have the most fun with me! I’ll make sure to match their pace with playtime, along with certain breed characteristics, or personal preferences! I tailor myself uniquely to every new animal!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. I currently have 6 dogs, ranging from super tiny to super big. I can take care of all different kinds of dogs and their needs. I love getting to know them and what makes them happy! I’m a college student who works part time, but I only work 5 hour shifts and I don’t have school at the moment, so I’m pretty available! I can bring treats and toys for your furry friend when I come to take care of them! I’ll do whatever they need to feel comfortable while you are away!
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. Right now I have one but at times I have had three. I worked at a veterinary hospital as a teenager. Over the years friends and family have entrusted me to watch, feed, and care for their dogs. I have had puppies up to elderly dogs. I currently work full time, we have a fairly large yard so I take my dog out twice in the morning. I take him out in the yard when I return home. I take him for a walk after dinner(we call it an adventure!). On the weekends, he loves to go to the park or the beach in the morning. I have a fenced yard. We have a house at the shore so he enjoys going there or to the park depending on the agenda. I take him to the vet appts and my wife and I alternate taking him to the groomers
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, developing a deep passion for their care.

I live in a spacious home with my mom, featuring a large fenced yard for pets to play safely. My friendly but shy miniature Dachshund enjoys company once he warms up.

With great walking routes nearby, I ensure plenty of exercise, playtime, and a cozy, loving space for every pet in my care.
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, primarily cats but dogs and fish as well. Most other animals I put extensive research into the care of when considering owning them, and I would be more than happy to use that knowledge to give your animals the best care possible. I am currently working on continuing my education, so having a way to cover my bills that allows me a flexible schedule doing something I love seemed the perfect fit. Raising my own cat, Tabitha, from a kitten to be a very social, outgoing, sweet girl who loves going for harness walks has left me with a healthy appreciation of how well it works if you treat an animal with respect and expect the same. That being said, house rules come first, and I will make sure to enforce them in your absence.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 or 11, and that's when I also started working on a ranch. Until about 2019 I took care of dogs, chickens, horses, and cats. Animals are a very important part of my life and I'm very good at taking care of them. Taking care of pets is a full-time job, but it's one that I've enjoyed my entire life. I take care of animals in some way everyday and everywhere I've gone. Everything in my house is pet proof and I have hardwood floors just in case there are any accidents. There are gated off and inaccessible areas that the cats can get into but the dogs can't. Everybody has a space. I also have a fenced in yard for them to explore. I live in a very nice neighborhood as well, so it's a safe area to walk the dogs.

As a Special Education teacher and a mom, patience and reliability are second nature to me. When providing walks or drop-in visits, I focus on giving your pet my full, undivided attention and maintaining the specific routine they need to feel secure. I am extremely detail-oriented. Whether it's following precise feeding instructions or ensuring your home is locked up tight, I pride myself on sending frequent photo updates so you always have peace of mind. My goal is to be the most dependable part of your pet's day while you are away.

I have two corgis that I raised from puppies, giving me hands-on experience with high-energy working breeds, puppy training, and caring for adult dogs. I'm comfortable walking dogs that are reactive, strong pullers, or need a patient, confident handler. I also have experience caring for a variety of small animals, including birds, rats, ferrets, and reptiles. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, playtime, or simply someone dependable to keep them company, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered and scaly!) family members. I currently offer weekend-only availability for dog walks and drop-in visits. While my weekday schedule is dedicated to work, I love spending my weekends caring for pets and making sure they get the exercise, attention, and companionship they deserve. If you're looking for a reliable weekend sitter or walker, I'd love to meet you and your pet! I take special care to make sure I follow all of the instructions left by pet parents. All things needed to walk/care for your dog will be placed back in a neatly fashion when I leave and I will ensure the home looks as good as when I arrived.
“Dana was excellent with my dog! She was prompt, had good communication, has a somewhat flexible schedule and followed the routine I asked. I highly recommend Dana and will be having her care for Buck again.”
About: I treat every pet as if it were my own. I’ve owed three dogs in the past years , two of which were rescues. I worked at a greyhound shelter in the past. I grew up with a cat as child and always been drawn to animals. My house is pet friendly and is a three story row house with a fenced in yard, on a quiet block. I love taking care of animals and will make sure your pet is treated with love and respect! My dog is a friendly and playful Jack Russell mix who loves his walks. My goal is to provide love and company for your pet when you can’t be with them. Whenever I go to someone’s house with pets, they instantly become my best friend!
About: Hi. My name is April and I always had dogs in my life. I personally own dogs and cats and I love every single one of them. Animals need love and to feel safe. I have experience pet sitting and walking. I know how important it is to give our fur babies everything they need to feel loved and happy. I have personally have given medicines in case you baby needs a little extra love. I love cuddling, playing and just enjoy time with these babies. If you have cats as well as dogs I have no problem taking care of them as well. I also have experience with dogs that are energized like a lab and dogs that have anxiety like my Chihuahua. I am here to help and make sure your babies are well taken care of. I currently work a full time job but I have a flexible schedule so there is plenty of time for playful pups and lovable cats. I do not board animals because of my currently living situation. I also believe it is better for the pets to remain in their own environment for a pet sitting.
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and have always loved caring for animals. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to pet sit, check in, feed, walk, play with, and spend quality time with their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I work part-time as an anesthesia technician, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available for daytime visits, evening care, overnight stays, and weekends. I’ll make sure your pets get lots of attention, playtime, walks, and the care they deserve while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, and I’m happy to follow any and all feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special requests to help your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

I would absolutely trust her to watch him again.”

“I’m just not sure where to start to express my LOVE FOR LIZZY!!!!❤️❤️❤️I was new to Roover and my furbaby Zeus had never been outside of his home without me😩. Lizzy calmed my anxiety so well. She was so warm and inviting and even allowed for us to do a brief meeting a few weeks before our boarding time was set to start. Zeus absolutely loves Lizzy…. She took care of my baby for 5 days. I looked forward the picture updates I was get from Lizzy, she did a wonderful job setting my mind at ease. I will certainly be booking with Lizzy for all our boarding needs.❤️”
