“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.”
“Gabriela was awesome! I really appreciate the updates she provided and relayed concerns in regard to Milo. Milo is a tri-pod senior dog who requires patience and a lot of care and Gabriela delivered at 110%! This is the 1st time a left Milo with someone other than family and Gabriela now is a part of that circle. I will definitely use Gabriela again!”
“This is the first time I have left Bella for this long of a time. Nick did a very good job with watching Bella. She returned home happy and content. Nick also sent daily updates and photos of Bella. Great job!, I will definitely be requesting you again.”
“Jennifer and her family were the perfect fit for our 2yo dachshund, Linguine. This was our first time being away from him for a week and she was communicative every day with photos and updates. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Milissa was awesome with my boy. She was very communicative. I received my pictures and updates throughout his stay. I would highly recommend her. I see why she”s a star sitter.”
“Hunter stayed with Cindy overnight and from the moment we met her she made us feel very comfortable leaving Hunter with her. She gave constant updates via pictures and videos, we loved hearing from her. She made sure he was comfortable. We’re definitely going to have Hunter stay with her again, because as she said goodbye when he got dropped off, he made Bambi eyes like he almost didn’t want her to leave!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Jesenia was very helpful and understanding about our request to meet & greet in advance of the stay, and re: changes/extensions of our schedule. She was attentive to our two dogs and sent pictures of them settled on the couch, and having fun in the dog park. Her own dog is extremely cute and friendly, and got along great with our dogs. Jesenia was also very accessible by cell/text throughout the stay, promptly returning calls and messages as needed. We would recommend her, and hope we will be able to use her again.”
“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!”

“Jacqueline and Jim treated my pup and loved her like their own! As it was my 60-lb Golden Retriever’s first time at a house with a cat, I set up a meet and greet and I could tell my dog felt right at home. Jacqueline was super communicative and warm prior to and during the boarding process. I could tell by the photos that my dog was comfortable and I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come back with me! I cannot recommend Jacqueline enough and will definitely board my dog at her place again.”
“I am so thrilled to have met Yuiko. My dog, Luna, stayed with her for doggy day care earlier in the year. Yuiko took wonderful care of her. This time she stayed overnight for 4 nights. Yuiko sent me pictures showing me how happy Luna was! When I picked Luna up, she was thrilled to see me but was in no rush to leave Yuiko and her very loving family!”
“Rhea did an amazing job taking care of Tommy and providing me updates throughout his stay. He was extremely happy from what I can tell, and seemed to enjoy his time with Rhea. Thanks again!!!”
“Snoopy had a wonderful time on his vacay with Janet! Janet spoiled him with plenty of walks during the day, lots of playtime and extra love! We knew he was having fun because Janet sent us pictures of him playing, having fun and even getting in a good afternoon nap which helped us relax and enjoy our vacation too. He can't wait for us to go on vacation 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.❤️”
“✨What an Amazing experience!✨ My first experience with Rover and our first experience boarding our pup! Roseanna L. was truly a blessing in our last minute boarding arrangements for our dog Rome. Our family took an impromptu mini vacation and Roseanna helped us out through the whole process. Communication was a breeze and she made us and Rome feel so comfortable in her home. She kept me up to date on his wellbeing through texts and sent pics of Rome throughout our vacation. Roseanna has a plenty of helpers for caring for your animals! Roseanna and her husband have 3 animal loving boys, and they share their home with Yuki (a wonderfully patient dog) a beautiful garden and a chicken coop! Rome had quite an amazing little farm experience! Roseanna and the family took Rome on hikes, walks, even a soccer game! The boys taught Rome tricks and they helped with his leash training! He even got a warm puppy bath before we picked him up! We could not have had a better experience! Thankfully yours, The Daly's and Rome 🐶 Rome and " 🐶🩷 10/10 will recommend! 10/10 will rebook!”
“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!”

“I was so lucky to get Keri as my pet sitter! My cats loved her and I received so many pictures and updates! As much as I hate leaving for several days, I didn’t have to worry because Keri was so good to my kitties💛 Truly phenomenal and reliable sitter.”
“We have a diabetic cat that requires insulin injections every 12 hours. Courtney was on time and communicated well during her drop-in visits, which was much appreciated. Thanks so much!”
“We are repeating with Marilyn, she is just great! She has real love for the animals and we know our cat will be well cared for with her in our absence. She is our main go to for pet sitting 😊😊”
“Lucy was SO great! She came in from a last minute request, for the first time, due to an emergency and she handled it graciously! My cat was very cared for and I felt so at ease knowing Lucy was there to help! She gave me updates, provided photos, and was very attentive.”
“Amanda was perfect! She was very reliable and flexible and respectful of our home. Most importantly, she was good to our boys and gave them the care and attention they needed. They are pretty attached to us (follow us around the house all day), but when we arrived home after 6 days away it was like we were just gone for the afternoon 😻😻”
“Porsche did an excellent job with my cat. After a week away, i came home to a happy cat. She sent me a number of photographs while away and answered all my texts in detail. i highly recommend working with Porsche.”
“Thank you to Jaclyn for taking the last minute booking. We really appreciate her and the great care that she took of our Bunny & Howie and our home. Jaclyn sent us updates and photos which we love to see while we are away. We will absolutely book Jaclyn again. :)”
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes since I can remember. Dog poop, hairballs, slobber…not grossed out, will clean it all. We recently lost our 17-year-old chihuahua, so I have experience caring for a senior pet as well. I’m a freelance creative, working from home with a very flexible schedule. I can easily shift my day around to meet your pet care needs! I am a sucker for instructions and will follow them to a T. Your pet(s) will get my undivided attention, love, and care. And, with your permission, I love to take photos of your pets and share them with you to add a little bright spot to your day.
“Ally treated our kitty as her own, and he was clearly enthralled with her and her visits!! Ally was extremely communicative the whole time we were away and sent lots of updates, photos, and videos so we knew he was so loved and well cared for during our absence. We have used lots of great pet sitters and walkers from Rover for years… and can say that Ally is absolutely in the top 1%. She is the best of the best, and her passion for her work is evident. Without any hesitation, we recommend Ally to care for your fur babies!!!!!”
About: I love all animals, but at heart, I'm a cat lady through and through! I grew up with cats, and my daughter and I currently have four fabulous felines - each with their own personalities, quirks, and ways of showing affection. Our orange female especially keeps us on our toes! I'm very comfortable giving cats medications (including sub-Q fluids), trimming nails, and have even cared for a litter of neonatal kittens. I'd be honored to pet sit your kitty family members!
“A few days before our international trip, we stumbled across the Rover site. It was serendipitous, as was our luck in finding Amber. She was everything we wanted in someone who would be in our home and taking care of our cats. She is professional, organized, smart, hardworking, down to earth, and considerate. When we met for our consultation, we were very impressed with her, as well as very reassured by how receptive she was to our needs and situation. We were gone 16 days, and she kept in daily contact with us, providing updates and photos and videos. She went above and beyond, handling our worries thoughtfully and treating our cats as a as though they were her own. Our cats are indoor/outdoor, and Amber was flexible with her schedule so as to try to be in sync with their patterns, in addition to her other obligations. She offered our cats shelter, food and water, treats and playtime, cuddles and reassurance. And in doing so, she gave us tremendous peace of mind. When our one cat would go exploring for extended periods, Amber was mindful to track her adventures. She even took the initiative to look for her if to much time has passed since T had come home. Amber also checked in with us about the house and property, and made a great impression on my dad and sister (who came by and appreciated her efforts too). We can verify that our cats took to her as well, as we had cameras set up and saw how responsive they were to her! :) One of our biggest challenges taking this trip was what we were going to do about our cats (this was our first time away since we adopted them and we know our situation is a little unusual). We are so very grateful to have discovered Rover, and we are 100% going to book Amber and to recommend Amber, wholeheartedly, for future plans.”
“Jacqueline has been great to work with! She is responsive and accommodating. She came to drop by my two cats and sent texts and pics while I was away for travel. I felt at ease with her checking in on my cats. Thank you!”
“Christina is so sweet. I made the best decision ever when I booked her to drop in and feed my crew on the afternoon of my surgery. It was a huge weight off my mind knowing I didn't have to worry about my kitties being cared for while I was still on an anesthesia stupor! Looking forward to booking her again!”
About: Although I didn’t grow up around cats, I recently had the opportunity to foster a cat through the local humane society! She was a young and energetic cat who was rescued as a stray, but had to be kept in isolation from other animals due to a communicable illness. Once we took her in, giving her the space to rest and rehab comfortably, she made a quick recovery and was adopted after a couple short months, once she was medically cleared! This taught me so much about tending to the needs of rescue animals and specifically monitoring any health concerns!
“Jillian was great! She made sure our 2 kitties were well taken care of! Our kitties were given lots of love and played with everyday! Very easy communication and she took great pics of the cats!”
“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 are moving permanently to the other side of the country this week and are super sad that Jeffrey will no longer be our dog sitter. He has been amazing for daycare and boarding, and you and your pet(s) will be extremely happy with Jeffrey.”
“Gus came home happy and tired! Veronica has two dogs, but Ronnie was especially great with my 5 month year old puppy! He was in almost every picture she sent- playing and sleeping beside my little guy :) Veronica has a big back yard unlike my home and I know it helped Gus happily adjust. Thanks so much! We hope to stay again soon!”
“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”
“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!”
“Roseanne’s home was calm and peaceful - exactly what my little old man needed. She and her boys gave him lots of snuggles and hugs, but best of all - he got his first ever time swimming in the pool - he loved it!! (And I loved the video). What a wonderful day he had.”

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.

She took cute pictures and kept me abreast of my dog’s urination and bowel movements. She was kind, kept a clean house, had fenced in space outdoors for the dogs to play and get some exercise, movement and sunlight. She was reliable and felt safe with my dog in her care.”

“I truly can't thank Brenda enough for the incredible care, attention, and love she gave to my two dogs while we were away on vacation. From the moment we left, she made us feel completely at ease, knowing our pups were in the best possible hands. Every single day, Brenda sent us a delightful stream of photos, capturing sweet moments from their walks, in the house, and quiet cuddles. Her pictures were not only beautiful but also full of personality, and they gave us such joy and reassurance while we were away. Alongside the photos, Brenda included detailed, thoughtful notes about how she spent her time with each dog. She described their moods, their favorite activities, and even the little quirks that make them unique. My family and I found ourselves eagerly awaiting her updates each day, excited to see what new adventures our dogs had been on and to read her creative, often humorous observations. It felt like she wasn’t just watching them, she was truly bonding with them, treating them as if they were her own. What impressed us most was how intuitively Brenda connected with both dogs, despite their very different temperaments. One is energetic and playful, the other more reserved and sensitive, and somehow Brenda managed to meet each of them exactly where they were. She tailored her approach with such care and understanding, and it was clear from the photos and notes that both dogs absolutely adored her. Brenda’s warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for animals made all the difference. I honestly can’t imagine leaving my beloved dogs with anyone else. She’s more than a pet sitter, she’s a trusted companion to our furry family members, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her!”
“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.”
“What would I ever do without Marilyn’s commitment and dedication to my beloved pet. If you find a Rover Champion make sure to appreciate them. Thanks Rover for finding this gem.”
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.

“We’re so happy we found Rachel. We just got a puppy and really needed help during the work week to let him and our other dog out. She was very professional, friendly and took to our dogs right away. She leaves prompt info on the walk and replies right away with any scheduling needs. Highy recommend her services!”
About: Throughout high school, my family fostered dogs through a local rescue, where we had the opportunity to take in dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve grown up with dogs and around animals and I have always been the go to pet and house sitter for friends and family! I have taken care of my own dogs in addition to fostering dogs for about 2 years and dog sitting for families for over 3 years! I am currently a college student at Lehigh University living on campus and I do have a car, so I am more than willing to stop by and care for your pets or dog and house ist for longer times if needed! Having experience in dog sitting in addition to fostering dogs and cats, I have a good understanding of how to care for a pet and how to cater to their needs and their environment, no matter their size, temperament, or age!
About: About Me Having grown up with dogs for most of my life, I understand that a pet is a family member who deserves undivided attention and care. In my professional life, I am a Special Education Teacher, a role that has gifted me with immense patience, a calm demeanor, and the ability to follow strict routines to the letter. While I don’t currently have animals of my own, I channel my lifelong passion into being the trusted, go-to walker and sitter for friends and family. The Benefit of Undivided Attention Since my home is currently pet-free, your dog or cat receives my 100% devotion without any distractions. I have extensive experience with multi-pet households, managing everything from high-energy play sessions for large dogs to the specific, quieter needs of independent cats. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule or providing extra cuddles, I treat every pet with the same love and respect I gave my own for years. Services & Personalized Care Focused Dog Walking: Tailored to your dog’s energy level and sensory needs. Drop-In Visits: Ideal for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime. Reliable Communication: I am highly communicative and will send frequent photo updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. My Availability I balance my love for animals with my full-time teaching career, which means I have a very consistent and predictable schedule: Mornings: Available Monday & Wednesday mornings for early walks/feedings (before 7 am). Evenings: Available Tuesday nights and Friday afternoons (after 4:00 PM). Weekends: I am fully available every other weekend, from Friday evening after 4 pm through Monday at 7:00 AM. Bonus Holiday & Summer Availability: As a teacher, I have extended flexibility during Spring and Winter breaks, as well as major holidays. I am also very open and available this coming summer for more frequent walks and drop-ins! Possible boarding and house sitting in the summer. Availability Tuesday Evenings: Available after 4:00 PM for walks or drop-ins. Wednesday Mornings: Available for early visits before 7:00 AM. Weekends: Available every other weekend (Friday 4:00 PM – Monday 7:00 AM) for more frequent visits. Note: As a full-time Special Education teacher, I am used to following routines! While my weekly schedule is consistent, I have a lot of flexibility during school holidays and long weekends. My schedule will be wide open for summer break as I will be nannying only two days per week. If you have a specific need outside these hours, please reach out. I’m happy to see if I can make it work! 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.

“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.”
“Gabriela was awesome! I really appreciate the updates she provided and relayed concerns in regard to Milo. Milo is a tri-pod senior dog who requires patience and a lot of care and Gabriela delivered at 110%! This is the 1st time a left Milo with someone other than family and Gabriela now is a part of that circle. I will definitely use Gabriela again!”
“This is the first time I have left Bella for this long of a time. Nick did a very good job with watching Bella. She returned home happy and content. Nick also sent daily updates and photos of Bella. Great job!, I will definitely be requesting you again.”
“Milissa was awesome with my boy. She was very communicative. I received my pictures and updates throughout his stay. I would highly recommend her. I see why she”s a star sitter.”
“Hunter stayed with Cindy overnight and from the moment we met her she made us feel very comfortable leaving Hunter with her. She gave constant updates via pictures and videos, we loved hearing from her. She made sure he was comfortable. We’re definitely going to have Hunter stay with her again, because as she said goodbye when he got dropped off, he made Bambi eyes like he almost didn’t want her to leave!”
“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.”
“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!”

“Jacqueline and Jim treated my pup and loved her like their own! As it was my 60-lb Golden Retriever’s first time at a house with a cat, I set up a meet and greet and I could tell my dog felt right at home. Jacqueline was super communicative and warm prior to and during the boarding process. I could tell by the photos that my dog was comfortable and I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come back with me! I cannot recommend Jacqueline enough and will definitely board my dog at her place 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.❤️”
“Katherine did a phenomenal job watching my dog while I was out of town! She was so attentive to anticipate every need and had amazing communication from the moment I first found her. She made sure to take photos and videos everyday which made it feel like I wasn’t away at all. I will definitely use her again!”
“Todd took wonderful care of our dog, Lola! He took her for multiple walks each day and provided regular updates with photos. We will absolutely have him watch Lola again when we are out of town.”
“My first time leaving Maui with anyone but family, and my longest trip away from him! Every worry I had about that was put at ease right away. Jacob took great care of him and I couldn’t be happier.”
“Kathleen is so sweet and an excellent dog sitter. I had to leave for a trip and the night before my dog needed to go to the vet for an eye issue and I was so worried because I didn’t want to burden here while I was away. She gave him his drops no problem and I am so grateful. Dunkin loves her backyard and is excited to stay every time. Highly recommend!”
