“Having Yuiko keep my furbaby was such a pleasure. She was extremely pleasant and made sure to keep me updated the entire time. Great yard where my dog was allowed to run around and play with her children. It was such a pleasure and I will use her again if I'm ever in need!”
“I had a 10/10 experience with Rebecca! She was incredibly welcoming and kind to my standard poodle Sasha, who can be standoffish with new people at times, but seemed to have fully made herself at home, looking very comfortable and content in practically every photo I saw. Sasha definitely has some quirks and fears, but Rebecca was very patient and generous with her space and time to make Sasha feel safe. Would definitely book again!”
“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!”
“Opal and Ollie had a great boarding experience with Jennifer and her family. I’ve already rebooked with her for their next boarding. I highly recommend Jennifer!”
“Rhea took great care of my dog over the weekend. He was so comfortable as soon as he got there and got along great with their sweet dog. I received pictures and updates multiple times per day and could see he was calm, and happy during his visit. He had a nice little vacation of his own there with lots of walks, play time, and cuddles! Thank you !”
“Mary was an incredible sitter. She shared daily updates, photos and videos so I was assured that my dog, Lyle, was not only being cared for, but being spoiled! Lyle got multiple daily walks, special treats, toys, and ample snuggles. I cannot recommend Mary and her husband enough! Can’t wait to rebook with them next time we need care for our sweet boy!”
“Daja was phenomenal with my pup Samson! Daja was very easy to coordinate with and was super communicative about how Samson was doing. My pup left with a smile on his face, so I will be rebooking with Daja in the future!!”
“Gregory watched our mini golden for 6 days and was super communicative keeping us updated on how she was adjusting and sending lots of pictures. She had a great time”
“I cannot speak highly enough of my expirience with Mel and Shilohs stay. I felt at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. I received updates and photos of my dog while I was gone and saw how much fun ahe was having. Mel was a great help and I will plan to use her in the future!”
“We love Danielle, Wade, and especially Jones. They take great care of our dog and send us daily updates. They are great communicators. Jones is the sweetest golden retriever and shares all of his toys and even his bed with our girl. Our dog is highly anxious, but Jones helps her feel safe.”
“Nicolle, care and pictures of my dog Spot made my stay away from him enjoyable. First time we were separated a long period of time. Will gladly as for Nicolle again. Will gladly recommend Rover to family and friends. My daughter n law recommended, glad she did. Gave tip directly to Nicolle when picked up Spot. Didn't know to use system.”
“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”
“Absolutely marvellous! Electra and Crescent were an absolute delight to meet, and they treated our peewees with such care. Our original plans were for just boarding our little dog (which they did armirably!), but we couldn’t find anyone to care for our cats, or to provide medication to one with diabetes. Wellsiree, they went above and beyond, and kept us up to date with daily updates in photo and video. Our little dog adored staying with them, she got lots of cuddles and lots of exercise! And our cats were so well looked after they were spoiled rotten. We can’t say enough great things about this wonderful couple. They’re our first choice for excellent care and attention of our peewees.”
“It was our first time going on vacation without our dog, but our dog had an amazing time at Yuhan’s! Yuhan was always responsive and send many photos and updates. I am so grateful we have a sitter who I can trust will love my dog as much as I do!”
“Emelie took great care of our dog Stanley for his first night away from us. She let us do a meet and greet and was able to answer our questions ahead of the stay. There were a couple of other dogs there which was great for Stanley, who is a very social pup. Her house is set up well for the dogs with a big yard and different rooms inside. We plan to bring Stanley back!”
“Zenith cared for my dog from February 19–22, and I am so grateful for her. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent sweet updates, photos, and videos that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear she treated him with genuine love and care, just like I would. I never once worried while I was away. I would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pup.”
“Bryce was fantastic! Teddy loved being there and will still try to go into the house any time we walk past, which I take as a great sign! Will 100% be booking again when needed.”
“Kristin was amazing and our boy Sherman had the best time with her and her family. She was extremely communicative and attentive, and provided so many photos of our little guy throughout the weekend so we didn’t have to worry about him. It’s hard leaving your pup with someone new and she made it as easy as it could be.”

“Molly was the perfect for my needs. I have a recently domesticated stray who has binded with me, but is very skittish with anyone else. I was worried that he would not eat during my recent vacation. Molly took care of him wonderfully under the circumstances. She will be my "go to" person going on, and who knows, given time, they may become close friends. Thank you, Molly!”
“Amanda was very communicative and asked many questions when she came to meet the kitties to make sure she understood exactly what we needed her to do with them. She was friendly and helpful. I would book her again for sure!”
“We had a great experience with Sydney! Communication was perfect and she was easy to work with. She provided excellent care for our 2 cats, one of whom needs both an inhaler and a pill. Our cats seemed to be really comfortable with her despite one being very shy. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have experience caring for both kittens and adult cats. I’ve helped with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and making sure they’re comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’ve also cared for a kitten in my home, which included plenty of playtime and attention since kittens definitely keep you busy! I’m comfortable following each cat’s normal routine and giving them the space or attention they prefer.
“Emily has sat for us a number of times and she is the best rover we've had! She is very responsible and thinks not just about feeding & scooping litter but thinks ahead to what kind of symptoms to watch out for after a procedure or where the cat carrier would be in case of emergency. She goes above & beyond the expectations of a regular sitter & is very communicative.”
“Abigail is always great to work with! Our cats love her, even our shy guy. She sends detailed updates and is always willing to help us with things around the house while we’re gone, too. Would highly recommend!”
“Madeline is absolutely amazing and took such good care of our Gritty kitty. She was super quick and responsive and took the best pictures. Very appreciative of her!”
“Courtney was fantastic! The updates I received from her drop-in visits were so detailed and thorough. Communication was proactive in terms of scheduling/asking any questions about care instructions. She’ll take great care of your pets!”
“Marketa was amazing watching our two cats over the weekend! One of cats has been skittish with feeding time and we were worried about finding someone who understood the situation. Marketa was very patient and clearly very experienced! She was timely, professional and updated us everyday with pictures on how our babies were doing. We were very comfortable and confident that both cats were well taken care of while we were away. Can't thank her enough!”
“Christina came to visit my cat everyday for 2 weeks. She did an amazing job connecting with him and taking the sweetest photos to keep me updated. She was also gracious enough to help water my plants while I was away. Would definitely recommend!”
“Brianna was wonderful. We had just moved into a new house, so the cats were a little more skittish than usual. Brianna was very flexible and accommodating with them, even feeding the one who didn’t want to leave the bedroom right there in the bedroom so she would eat. She really went above and beyond for us and the cats this week to make sure everyone (including we humans) was comfortable.”
“Aaron and Yu-Wei were easy to communicate with and professional while taking care of our cat for the week. He’s a shy guy so they didn’t interact, but every morning we got a prompt update and pictures of a cleaned eating area (he makes a mess) and fresh food. We would definitely hire these two again!”
About: Love taking care of dogs and cats, and spending time with them. Giving cats pets or feed cats, changing litter, or just keeping them company. I’m very flexible with scheduling, let me know if you have any request or special accommodations. Please note that each cat visit ranges from 5-10 minutes. If you would like for a longer visit please let me know !

“Yuiko is a terrific pet sitter! She gave me Milo’s update very often. This was so helpful for me have peaceful mind as this was my first experience with Yuiko.”
“Electric & Crescent are awesome. Odin had a great time with them and their lovely cats! The communication was great, they're easy going, they sent pictures constantly on how Odin was doing and I couldn't be happier to see him enjoy playing and cuddling with them. Odie is definitely coming back! Thank you!”
“Dejah and her boyfriend were absolutely amazing with my dog and I felt so comfortable leaving her with them! I got plenty of photos and updates throughout the day which was great. Millie clearly had a very fun day at Dejah’s house :) I am absolutely going to book with Dejah again for daycare while I am at work and would 100% recommend her!!”
“Yuhan was very good with my dog Teddy, and too him on short notice as I had a last minute event to attend. She was a great communicator and sent me lots of pictures which I loved. She's a lovely person and filled me in everything about my pet when I picked him up.”
“Could not have had a better first experience with Mel watching Cannoli! The drop off process was easy and he seemed instantly comfortable with her. She sent numerous photos throughout the day showing how much fun he was having and how happy he was! Would 100% recommend and we cannot wait for Cannoli's upcoming weekend stay with Mel knowing how comfortable he is with her!!”
“Luna came home all tuckered out from Danielle and Wade's! I can tell that she had a great time hanging out with Jones all day. I knew Danielle & Wade are dog lovers as soon as we met, and felt very comfortable leaving Luna with them. Great communication and very reliable! We'll definitely be back!”
About: I used to take care of my son's dogs for many years, as well as dogs from our neighbors. Our house has great temperatures inside and outside I am at home most of the time, since I work from home. I can spent a lot of time with pets. Our neighborhood (Manayunk) is very safe and not noisy. I can host pets, we have a large patio. I have security cameras un our fenced patio. I also have a doggie door, so pets can exit/enter on their own.
“Don’t hesitate to book with Samantha!! I was new to the neighborhood and had a very busy week, and she just made everything so much easier by providing reliable daily care for my pup! She is incredibly flexible, kind, and communicative which is very appreciated. She is also great at sending pictures and video updates :) I feel great about leaving my dog with her. 11/10!”
“Rhea is always fantastic with Kaju! Her like her own and it helps that my dog and her dog are basically long lost lovers. Arlo is a fantastic pup and gets along with my dog beautifully and I know Kaju has tons of fun when she is there! Rhea took kaju on a long walk an sent multiple videos and pictures through out the day. She’s great!!!”
“Janelle once again provided excellent care to our dog Poppy and on short notice for a day trip! Poppy is always so happy and upbeat when she returns to us. We can tell she had a great day!”
“Monee made our puppy and all of us so happy! Our puppy, Elijah, had the time of his life playing with her dog, Lucky, and the other dog she was watching! Monee sent us pictures and a video showing what a wonderful time Elijah was having! Her backyard is a dog's paradise! He felt right at home from the moment he walked in! He and Lucky played for the entire day! We feel so lucky to have found Monee and look forward to her watching Elijah each time we go out of town!”
“Wonderful experience for my dog Harper. And Kristen was very thoughtful, responsive and helpful with everything surrounding the visit. Harper looks forward to her next stay. Highly recommended!!”
About: As a reliable and caring dog lover, I believe that pets are family. I have had a house full of pets since I was just 5 years old, and have loved them everyday since. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I prioritize making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. As a nurse, I’m attentive, responsible, and comfortable following detailed care instructions, medication schedules, and special needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a little bit of everything, I’ll provide personalized care tailored to their routine. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member :) I am currently in grad school full time and not working, so I have plenty of time to love your fur babies. My schooling is remote until January, so I will be home all the time aside from errand runs, so I am very able to keep your pup happy and entertained while you’re away!! I have a super friendly golden retriever/ German Shepard mix who loves having friends over - he does extremely well when we watch our friends pups. I am able to crate your dog if needed. I do let my dog on the couch and our bed, but I am happy to set any boundaries with your pup that you request.
“Becky was awesome! Our dog clearly had a great time and came home tired after having a playful, active day with lots of attention. Becky was incredibly responsive from the time I sent the initial request, to providing us updates throughout the day, showing attention to detail and our dog's schedule. This did not go unnoticed and was greatly appreciated! Definitely recommend using Becky!!”
“such an amazing babysitter. took care of my lil p beyond words can describe 🫶🏼 provided so much love & care for him through out the entire day. couldn't have imagined a better dog sitter 🙌🏼 thank you !”

“Really easy to communicate with and super reliable. Booking is straightforward, they always keep me in the loop, and I never have to wonder if everything is going to plan. My dog is obsessed with them, which honestly says more than anything I could write here. 10/10, would recommend to anyone.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for most of my life. I got my first dog around age 11 and have had multiple dogs over the years, along with a ferret, hamster, and fish. I’ve also helped care for family members’ dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Animals have always been a big part of my life and continue to be. I truly enjoy being around them and caring for them, and I always joke that one day I’m going to end up with my own little farm because I want every animal I see! I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to take breaks for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, or whatever a pet may need. My daily routine is pretty laid back, so I have the time and flexibility to give pets plenty of attention and care. I’ll be caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I would always talk with the pet parent beforehand about their normal routine, what they’re allowed or not allowed to do, feeding instructions, walks, and any other specific needs. I’m big on following the owner’s instructions, keeping their pet safe and comfortable, and being respectful of their home and belongings.
“Courtney was amazing with Loki. She was prompt, patient and went above and beyond to keep him happy in the heat wave. Highly recommend and would love to have her watch him again.”
“Lauren is an exceptional Rover! She walked our dog Gracie every week the better part of six months, even through crazy snow and rain — she was always punctual, highly communicative and proactive about sharing times she was unavailable well in advance, and super sweet with our dog who loved seeing her every day. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”
About: I’ve been on Rover for the past 6 years and I have also had personal experience with taking care of dogs for about ten years. I have made house visits to my neighbors to care for their dogs while they were away and my family also has a dog of that I have taken care of for the past 12 years. I have always been an animal lover and I love to help in whatever ways that I can. Being able to combine my love for animals with my love for helping people by caring for their pets seems like the perfect part-time job to me. I’ve lived in Oak Park for a few years now so I’ve gotten to know the area well and I love getting to meet all the different animals around! (P.S. I’ll also take great pictures of your pets to send while you’re away) I am available full-time during the week and weekends and I have a pup of my own who would love to make some new friends in the area! I live in an apartment with a lot of parks nearby that I would plan on taking your pet. I have a very friendly pup of my own that loves to play as well.
About: I've been taking care of neighbor's cats and dogs since childhood, including overnight house sitting. I've had cats for most my life and have worked with big and small dogs, young and old, including dogs that need a lot of exercise. I have experience taking care of other domestic mammals like rabbits, chinchillas, rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, and hedgehogs, as well as exotic birds and reptiles. I'm a big animal over; I majored and worked in wildlife conservation, and am passionate about domestic and wild animals. I work freelance, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I am able to stay home a lot and be with the pets. I have a car to get to people's homes easily for daytime checkins/walks. Depends on the client's specific needs but usually for housesitting I stay at the house and am home often, so I'm able to give the pets attention and care, and let them out for bathroom breaks and walks regularly as needed. I can do basic household stuff like take out trash, clean up after pets, water plants, whatever is needed.
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.
“Katie is a fantastic dog walker! She takes great care of Tyson every time, sends photos during the walks, and keeps me updated consistently. Her communication is excellent and it's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. Highly recommend her!”
“Jordan was great with Penelope. She’s a big girl with a lot of personality and he took her on a great walk. He was communicative the whole time and sent very cute pictures.”
“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!”
“Abby was amazing with Gracie, the photos clearly showed a strong bond between the two of them, even after just meeting each other! Thank you Abby for letting us be worry free and knowing Gracie was well taken care of!”
“Ella was PHENOMENAL! She was kind, communicative, punctual, and sent lots of pictures. She even went above and beyond to help us out when I made a booking error, I really appreciated her exceptional service and the care she gave to my pets. We will absolutely book again!! 10 stars!!!”
“Aaron and Yu-Wei were so accommodating while caring after my cat and dog while I was away for the weekend. My dog was having unexpected stomach issues at the time and they had no problem making sure that she got her daily medications, followed her diet plan, and even took her on a few extra walks. They spent extra quality time with my pets making sure they were okay, cleaning up after them if necessary. I felt so safe and relieved knowing my pets were in good hands with Aaron & Yu-Wei and will definitely be booking with them again the next time I need a pet walker/sitter. I would 100% recommend booking with Aaron & Yu-Wei!!”
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.
“Definitely having her walk my Logan again. I can tell by his photo she sent me that he was happy with his nightly walk. He is a super anxious boy but he was good with her. She was very flexible with me and I appreciateed that. Thanks!!”
“Katelyn was terrific walking my dog. She listened careful to all my instructions and my dog was excited to see her return. Will book again next time I need help with my dog.”
“Sam is the best! He sends me great photos of Lou on the walks. He will take my dog to the dog park too. He is great with communication and very timely and friendly. I would recommend him to anyone.”

“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.”

On picking Theo up I could tell how happy he was with the care Donte provided. Thanks again Donte, you did an awesome job!”

Chris is an overall cool guy. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a sitter. Will book him for any further future needs!”
