“Joy was such a wonderful sitter and provided a warm, safe and friendly home away from home for our dog. She would send frequent updates and pictures to let us know how our dog was doing and was always quick to respond if I messaged her first. Would highly recommend!”
“Jayanna went above, and beyond to accommodate me from my 1st last minute request at 5.a.m., to keeping my Kenny an extra few hrs because I had an accident that even called for an ambulance, and was still available to have him ready at 12:30 a.m. so we could get on the Hwy heading towards Texas. She was the Greatest. $40 tip along with the extra hours into a paid full day day was a drop in the bucket for someone a kind, sweet, and caring with animals, and clients as she's proben to be! 🥰”

Ps THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING GOOD CARE OF MY GIRLS 💕”

“Peanellopy is so professional and sweet! She is also extremely communicative and responsive. My dog is older (16, 5 years old) and kind of set in his ways. He doesn't feel comfortable with everyone, and also has some sight and hearing loss. He absolutely LOVED Peanellopy and came back home HAPPY! She was very attentive to him, and kept me informed with texts and photos, which kept me at ease knowing he's safe and comfortable and also not causing her any inconvenience. I would definitely be asking Peanellopy to take care of Jugsy again!!”
“Mitchell might be the BEST sitter we’ve ever booked on Rover. He sent the best pics of churro and reassured us every day how much fun they were having, putting us at ease and letting us have an awesome vacay. So communicative and responsive, I trusted churro had the time of his life. He walked churro home so that when we got back from our trip, he was already in our apartment!! Honestly no notes, 10/10.”

“Gabrielle consistently does a wonderful job checking in with my (very) talkative, food motivated kitty. She’s always on time, sends relevant & detailed updates, and is generally very reliable. I rest assured Gabrielle will care for my little beast 😆”

“Andrea did a fantastic job with drop-ins for my 3 cats!! Great communication, reliable and right on-schedule. Gave equal love and attention to all the kitties (even with one being in a separate room due to integration issues). Happy gatos and happy clients all around. Would certainly use her again and recommend her services to anyone. Thanks Andrea!”
“Fantastic sitter! Made sure our cat, Wink, was well accommodated. Went above and beyond expectations. Great communication and plenty of photos to see our kitty while away!”

“Zahra is absolutely amazing, I could not recommend her more. I will use her services for as long as she’s available and we are both in the same city. She cared for Evee as if she were her own and gave such thorough updates I had no worries about her care the whole weekend I was away. Evee is either anxious or a lover depending on how she feels about you, she’s a great teller of humans, and when she purrs for someone other than me, she knows you’re a special one. When Zahra sent a recording of her purring, I melted. Thank you Zahra for everything!”
“Jack did a wonderful job dropping in for my cat bubba. As evidence from the adorable photos he took, Jack was able to snuggle and play with Bubba. He is usually a shy guy! Would happily have Jack drop in again.”

“Riva is wonderful! She is super communicative, and our cats are always happy to see her. She sends great updates, and I also appreciate her bringing in our packages while we ware away. Thank you, Riva!”
“Kallie was great! She made me feel so confident that my babies were in good hands even though it was hard to leave them. The photos of my babies daily reassured me even through my trip that they were happy and healthy. I would definitely book Kallie again! Thank you for loving my babies so well while i was away!!”
“Amazing experience! Took great care of our 3 cats and gave one of them medicine twice a day (even over the holidays). I'd book with her again any day! Thank you thank you thank you!”
“Destiny was friendly, professional and reliable. She dropped in to take care of my 15 year old cat while I was away, introduced her to some new toys, and even helped with a household chore. I recommend her highly!”
“Casey was fantastic and very professional. She came before visit for a meet and greet and was completely confident in learning how to give our fur buddy, Chick, his insulin shots. She sent pictures daily and even helped bring in our food delivery when we forgot to cancel it for our trip. The cats were chill and happy when we came back. We will definitely book Casey again on our next out of town.”
“Alyssa vastly exceeded my expectations by going above and beyond in caring for my two orange feline "terrors" while I was on vacation. She was very thorough in her daily Rover report cards and took the time and effort to document how the cats were doing and followed up quickly with questions if anything wasn't clear. This put my worries to rest quickly as I knew they were in good hands. In particular my senior cat has several special needs and she took extra time and made sure she got his medication regiment correct. Would recommend to all without hesitation.”
“As always, Rachelle is awesome! Great check ins and complete info on how it’s going. Judging by the pics of my cats cuddling up with her, I’d say she’s a hit with my boys. Excited to have her watch my cats in the new year too.”
“Michelle was so diligent in caring for my cats. She followed every instruction; it was also a pleasure to meet her before we left for our trip. I hope she will be available for future trips we are taking this year!”

Joy looked so excited and happy when I picked her up so I knew she had a great time with Victoria.

I would certainly recommend her and would book with her again if I’m in the Philadelphia area. Thank you Victoria for caring for my girl!”

I do not have any pets that live with me so it will just be myself and your dog. I will usually only have 1 dog at a time unless the dogs already know each other or live together.

I work remotely, so am home most of the day. I am available for regular care of your pet and the flexibility of my schedule allows me to take breaks as needed! My home is pet and smoke and pet free, and the back patio has six foot high cement walls. I have a pet gate on my staircase for when I leave the house, so no fear if your furry friend likes to scrounge in clothing or laundry! Additionally, the entrance to my house has a secondary door which is always closed, so there’s no chance of accidental pet breakouts while entering or leaving the house.

About: Aside from growing up with a dog and always around friends and family members' pets, I have also been a pet-sitter for family and neighbors since I was 15. This included walking and feeding dogs and feeding and playing with indoor and outdoor cats. I also have experience with cat-sitting for pets with special diets. I am a pet-lover through and through, and two years ago, I finally adopted my two cats, Olive and Martin. It has been a blast to care for them and watch them grow while I work from home. My cat Olive is on a special diet, making me comfortable caring for cats with different dietary needs. I am also very comfortable with providing cats medicine, as I've had to do that with my pets at times. As I previously mentioned, I work from home and am looking to help out folks by taking good care of your pets when you need it. I work from home, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available on weekdays in the early mornings, over lunch, and in the evening. I also completely available on weekends. I am really looking forward to spending my free time with more pets! I first ensure that I have all the necessary information needed to appropriately care for your pet. When visiting your home, I always ensure that I make the pet as comfortable with a new person as possible. If your pet is comfortable, I always play with your pets and give them lots of pets. Most importantly, I ensure that they are fed, have water, and go outside/have a clean litter box. Lastly, I will communicate my visits with you and send pictures of your pets!

About: I’ve been around cats since I was a kid, and now I’m a cat mom to Bibble and Strawberry as well as a current PAWS foster parent for kittens like Ketchup and Hoisin. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I always care for other people’s cats the way I’d want someone to care for mine. I’m comfortable with shy, playful, curious, or sensitive cats, and I follow routines closely while keeping things clean and calm. I refresh food, water, and litter before I leave, and I send clear photo updates so you always know how your cat is doing. Can’t wait to meet your furballs. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to do drop-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I can also house sit overnight depending on my schedule. I always move at a cat’s pace. New people can be stressful for them, so I keep things calm, give them space to warm up, and let them choose how much interaction they want. I follow your routine closely feeding, water, litter, medications, and any house rules so everything feels familiar while you’re away. At home, I care for my own cats with more than just basics, making sure they have enrichment, comfort, and attention, and I bring that same level of care to your pets.
