“I would 10/10 recommend Jennifer if you’re looking for dog boarding services. Jennifer and her family treats my dog with so much love and care. I have been using her service for almost a year already and can’t think of a better sitter for my dog. You won’t regret leaving your pup with her!! Thanks again for all you do, Jennifer!”
“Mary was an incredible dog watcher! I got multiple updates throughout the day with very cute pictures included. My dog needed to take medicine on a schedule and Mary made sure to communicate each time a dose was given. I could not have asked for a better host for my fur baby! 10/10 would recommend”
“Amy was amazing with my dog, Roxy!! I highly recommend using her. Roxy is an older mini goldendoodle and Amy was so accommodating and sweet with her. I got daily updates with photos. I felt so comfortable and Amy made the process super smooth. I booked her last minute and so glad I did. I highly recommend and would use her again!”
“Yuhan was a wonderful sitter. She gave frequent updates on our girl and we could tell she really enjoys what she does. We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Emelie was the sweetest and most communicative caretaker I could’ve asked for for our little guy. He has some anxiety issues and needed a little extra TLC and that all seemed fine and easily done by this sweet and kind carer. He also got along with her other dogs really well which I’m sure made him feel even more at peace and at home away from home. Highly recommend Emelie for anyone looking for a safe, loving place for their furry family member.”
“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!”
“Rebecca was a terrific sitter. We felt so comfortable leaving our pup in her care. She kept us up to date with lots of photos and messages and we came home to a happy pup. We will definitely be using Rebecca’s services in the future.”
“Dakota seemed so comfortable which is rare for him because he’s super anxious and old and set in his ways! I’m so grateful for Christin and I received pictures along the way and I will definitely be rebooking!!”
“Maria was absolutely amazing taking care of Mac. She made sure he got enough exercise and playtime while also giving him space to wind down and relax. Mac ending up being on prescription diet during the boarding and Maria followed it perfectly! I was so thankful she was able to watch him and I will definitely be booking again. I also really appreciated the updates throughout the day about the various activities she did with Mac. Additionally, her dog Cookie was super playful with Mac despite the large difference in their size. Mac truly seemed like he was having a great time which brought me piece of mind for his stay.”
“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.”
“Danielle and Wade took care of our treeing Walker Coonhound, Cooper, for 13 days while we were on vacation. They are wonderful dog people and Cooper enjoyed both of them and their dog, Jones. All got along famously! Cooper has noise phobia and they played soothing music for him during thunderstorms. I highly recommend Danielle if you're looking for a dog sitter. She and Wade are warm and caring. It is obvious how well they take care of Jones, and they will care for your special friend in exactly the same way.”
“Maya's stay with Melanie over Christmas was great. Melanie's home is very welcoming and she made every effort to make sure Maya was comfortable. Thank you for having her and I will definitely be in touch for a future stay!”
“Jacqueline was wonderful! Buttons looked so happy and comfortable with her. She was very nice and accommodating. I will definitely utilize her services again!”
“I can’t recommend Alexandra enough! She has been taking care of my dog, Milo, for quite some time now, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in her care. She and family truly treat Milo like he’s their own. He’s always so well cared for, loved, and honestly spoiled in the best way possible. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and it shows in everything she does. She’s reliable, kind, attentive, and always keeps me updated, which means so much. Milo is always happy to see her, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”

I felt very comfortable leaving him to stay at my house with my cats for five days. He stayed in touch throughout the visit with updates and pictures. Could not ask for a better sitter. Thanks Ryan!”
“Danielle is always great. She goes above and beyond in her duties and she always sends great photos. Our kitties seem to really enjoy her presence when we ask her to stop by for us. Would definitely recommend Danielle.”
“Kendra was the best!!! We have never used a service and always relied on friends and family but will use Kendra from now on. We have an elderly cat that requires medicine and she had no problem accommodating his needs. She left extremely detailed notes at each visit and was professional. 10/10 recommend!”
“Jamilah was great with my kitties and helped me out on short notice! My kitties warmed to her immediately and she took great care of them. Would def recommend her! Thanks Jamilah!”
“Julia always takes such great care of our cats. We have planned vacations around her availability—and will probably do so again in the future—because she is just so wonderful.”
“Shelby took great care of our three cats, ranging from extremely timid to very social. She made sure each one was well attended to and left our litter area tidy. She was also punctual, communicative, and consistent. She sent us great photos and thoughtful messages throughout our time away. We’ll absolutely reach out to Shelby again to rebook next time we are planning to be out of town.”
“Rebecca was AMAZING taking care of my cats Ben and Jerry while I was on vacation. So grateful to have peace of mind while I was away that she was looking after them. She provided photos and updates in a timely manner and was great to work with. Will definitely use again and highly recommend!!”
“Jacqueline was awesome! She responded within minutes each time I messaged her and was able to board my cat on short notice. Definitely will ask her to board in the future!”
“This was my first time ever using a service to care for my cat and the first time leaving my cat for a week. Which was a big deal for a new pet parent! Nikki was amazing. She was thorough in gathering care instructions for Lil Sweetie, prompt with her check-ins, and sent detailed visit cards with cute pics of my kitty so I could keep in touch while I was away and missing her. I felt completely at ease knowing Sweetie was in the care of Nikki. I will definitely be booking Nikki again in the future and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Nikki!”
“Caitlin did an amazing job caring for our two cats. One of the cats is very skittish and usually hides from cat sitters and house sitters. But for Caitlin, Trixie not only emerged from hiding but hung around for a long time. This never happens! We are so relieved to have found Caitlin. (The other cat loved her too!)”

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.
“She took great care of my needy dog, quickly learning his personality quirks and needs. She communicated regularly and provided lots of updates. I would definitely book again!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine care and attention I bring to every pet I look after. I don’t just “watch” pets. I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their people are away. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable with all ages, from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime to senior pets who require gentler care and a watchful eye. I pride myself on noticing the little things such as changes in behavior, eating habits, or comfort so you can trust that your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I’m currently working remotely so I have plenty of time to help you out! Just let me know when assistance is needed and I can more than likely be there. I have a small fenced in yard, and I live in a house with my brother, who also loves dogs. In my home, I make sure pets have a comfortable and safe space to relax, with plenty of attention and outdoor breaks (for dogs). I keep routines consistent with what they’re used to so they feel at ease and cared for.
“Cody had a nice time with Rhea and Argo (her dog). He’s pretty un-dog friendly, ignores them mostly, but Rhea took good care of him and Arlo gave him his space😂. Excellent communication. We have already booked with Rhea again!”
“Monee is a very nice person and her dog Lucky is a great dog to make him happy to stay. That said, we had some separation anxiety. Monee is experienced and had good suggestions. We will be back!”
About: hey there! I am currently 28 years old and I have always had a special connection to animals since i was a little girl. I grew up in a household that had 2 dogs at all times from small to large, puppy to old. I will do whatever to make your pet feel comfortable and loved! There is nothing i love more in the world then some puppy kisses! I have experience with new born puppies as well as kittens!! I always feel happy when i am surrounded by animals! So if you are looking for someone who can care for and love your pet unconditionally, i'm your girl! I am currently a stay at home mom with a 3 month old! I have open availability at the moment and can work around any schedule! I live in a 3 story townhouse with a fenced in backyard!! We have grass patches in the backyard as well as paths all around the townhouse complex
“Samantha was very welcoming of Bulbasaur and sent video/photo updates during the day to let me know that he was doing well. Very responsive and easy to work with.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we are already planning on using the service a second time thanks to the wonderful job Mel did! She was so communicative and our dog fell in love. Thanks, Mel!”
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.
“Melody was absolutely amazing! I initially booked a last-minute dog-sitting appointment, and she accommodated me with no issues. She kept me updated throughout the day, letting me know when my pup went potty or had a meal, and even helped with crate training. I noticed positive changes in my pup—he was much calmer upon pick-up, which showed how well he was cared for. Melody was incredibly reliable, watching my pup for a full two weeks, and I never once had to worry about his well-being. She even assisted with food changes, which I truly appreciated. I highly recommend Melody to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter!”

“Thank you so much Nora for taking such good care of Fozzie! This was our first experience with a dog walker (also on short notice!) and you made it very comfortable. Highly recommend. 😊”
“We couldn’t be happier with Rachel! She is incredibly reliable, communicative, flexible and so easy to work with. Communication has always been quick and seamless, and I always know my pups are in great hands. She gives them so much love, attention, and affection. They get plenty of kisses, cuddles, and great walks. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about them, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m at work. I truly appreciate everything she does for my dogs, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and professional dog walker!”
“We were very happy to meet Ryan through Rover and he was very attentive to our dogs patterns and ours. He is very responsive and reliable. We are looking forward to his house sitting for us while we are away.”
“Kendrea has been wonderful. My Luna gets a good walk, then comes home and needs a little nap. She sits by door waiting for Kendrea, impatiently, on her walk day.”
“Danielle went very much out of her way to give Nala a walk this past week- we had a scheduled 30 minute visit and while we were away she experienced car trouble- without bailing or asking if someone else could step in she went out of her way to Uber to and from our home just to make sure Nala was taken care of. I’m so happy we found Danielle- thank you so much again for going above and beyond.”
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.
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 come from a dog family & I moved away from home for grad school so I am pet-less at the moment and would love to give someone else’s pets my love & care! I have frequently house-sat for family and friends (longest time being two weeks). I would typically walk dogs for atleast a mile or two (bigger breeds) and play till they are tired out! I have experience managing reactive dogs, and am more than willing to work with their needs. More about me: 25 y/o doctorate student @ PCOM looking for a side-gig / hobby to fill my cup. I am mostly free Thursdays-Monday. If you book me for dog sitting for a week just be aware that I do have class from 5-6 hours Tuesday & Wednesday, and work Monday/Friday 9-3 I will leave your home exactly how I found it & only touch whatever pertains to your pet unless asked otherwise!! I can send pictures, and be contacted at any time while walking or watching your pet for added reassurance!
“The pups were happy to see Tim. I’m glad to have found a dog walker around the neighborhood. I had to step out last minute and Tim thoroughly followed our instructions while we were out. Definitely will book again!”
“Colette was an amazing dog walker, my dogs absolutely loved her and we will definitely miss her. She was communicative, prompt, and so sweet with our girls. They got to know her car and would get so excited when they saw it coming down our street!”
“Nikki was fantastic with our enthusiastic dog from the very beginning! She is very calming and responsible with him and communicative with us. We look forward to more walks with her!”
About: I grew up with cats and have lived with dogs in the past as well - including a golden retriever and a Great Pyrenees! I have my own pet at home: a 5 year old orange tabby girl named Millie who has been with me since her small kitten days! I watch over cats and dogs alike for friends and neighbors and treat them with the same care I would the pets that have been my family. Fun fact: I'm also an artist when I'm not pet sitting! Some of my artwork includes pet portraits. I work for myself, so I decide my own schedule, which allows me to be fairly flexible. If I'm staying an extended time with your pets, I am able to bring some of my computer work with me so that they get company for even longer than a short walk or a little bit of playtime. I'm happy to care for your pets in your home. In my home, there's a very happy cat who rules the space, so I do not offer boarding at this time.
“Dana is a wonderful dog walker! She’s a great communicator and our two pups took to her right away. I highly recommend Dana. We will continue working with her in the months ahead.”
About: I have taken care of dogs mg entire life. From family dogs to foster dogs and puppies. From chihuahuas to Newfoundlands. I have done it all! I love taking dogs for a walk and playing with them in the yard. I would mostly be able to walk your dog after school hours (I am a teacher!) or on weekends. I can offer evening times as well. I would be able to take your dog out on a walk around your neighborhood, play in the yard, or even a local park in the area.
