About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had seven dogs and six cats, so caring for pets was a part of my everyday life. From feeding and grooming to playtime, walks, and giving them plenty of love and attention, I learned early on what it takes to help pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for mice, turtles, and fish, giving me experience with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I’ve always had pets throughout my life, and caring for animals has never felt like a chore, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I also spend time feeding and observing backyard birds, which reflects my love and appreciation for all kinds of animals. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, an independent cat, or another beloved pet, I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Although I have an unfenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are always kept safely on a leash. We also have a neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks that are perfect for walks and exercise. If your pet is crate trained or you prefer they be crated when unattended or at bedtime, I’m happy to accommodate that routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own.
About: I have had seven dogs throughout my life and currently have a friendly 7-year-old Beagle. I have also pet-sat dogs for family and friends over the years. Caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playing, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions carefully. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with animals! I currently don’t work and I am home all day so I can be with your dog most of the day and let them out frequently. I have a big fenced yard and like to walk dogs. I care for pets with the same patience, attention, and responsibility that I would want for my own. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also follow each pet’s individual routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and other needs. In a client’s home, I am respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being and communicate with the owner regularly so they know how their pet is doing. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while in my care.

Her communication was excellent, and I felt confident that Ruby was safe, happy, and well cared for the entire time. I would definitely trust Alexa to watch Ruby again and highly recommend her!”

“Julain is AMAZING! He took such good care of my little one and sent tons of photos. I’ve had my friends sit Horus before and honestly he was WAY happier with Julain.

Anyways you won’t regret hiring him at all, truly a pleasure and a really nice guy in general.”

“Lana was amazing and attentive and took great care of our beloved kitty! She was always timely (important because he is food obsessed and will certainly perish if not fed on time!!!). She provided excellent communication and lots of feedback through pictures and texts. It is incredibly difficult for me to be away from my kitty and she truly provided me the peace and happiness that I needed to be able to enjoy my vacation. She listened to what was important to me to take the best care of my baby during the meet and greet and followed up on everything that I asked. I highly recommend Lana.”
“Meghan was amazing! Reliable, caring, and very attentive. She made sure everything was taken care of and gave our cats great company while we were away. We came home to happy cats and a clean space. Highly recommend her!”

“Shona and her family were amazing! Our dogs have never been to daycare and never boarded, but they loved it. Shona sent pictures and kept us updated. One of our dogs is afraid of everything, but she was happy and comfortable enough to nap on their sofa. And Shona was not even upset that we arrived early and woke her up, lol! We will definitely be repeat customers when the need arises. We would recommend Shona to anyone.”
“Ena and Daniel watched my pup on very short notice today- which I appreciated immensely! My little girl is very skittish and I was worried that she wouldn’t interact but it was just the opposite- within 15 minutes of me dropping her off they posted pictures of her on their laps, drinking water and hanging out with their dog it made my stressful day so much better! I will definitely be using them again!”
“Hollie was absolutely wonderful with Chacho! She watched him for three days of daycare, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt confident that he was in caring and capable hands. Hollie kept me updated, made sure Chacho was comfortable, and gave him plenty of opportunities to play and socialize with the other dogs. He had an amazing time and came home happy, relaxed, and completely worn out, which is always a sign of a great day for him! It’s clear that Hollie genuinely cares about the dogs she watches and treats them like her own. I truly appreciated her kindness, communication, and dedication to making sure Chacho had a fun and safe stay. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.”

About: I don't have any crazy special certifications or experience but I have loved dogs, my entire life I had a beagle growing up names snickers.. i was young but I swear that was the most stubborn dog ever. Due to school and work, I was not able to get my own.Dog until I was in my 30s. Izzy is my ride or die soul dog. For the last 5 years, I have been fostering and volunteering with various rescues in the area. When I have some downtime. But day to day i am a working professional single dog mom seeking additional puppy play dates... for me and my pup Izzy. I honestly just do rover on the side as an excuse to get off my behind and play with some local fur friends but also for my pup Izzy to get out bc she is sick of me now that I wfh full time unless i have business trip. Depending on your location or needs I am happy to schedule my day accordingly for walks, stop ins, etc. - at the end of the day very flexible with sufficient notice or schedule permitting within 5 mile radius from east norriton. I can only board or house sit if our dogs get along so reach out for a meet n greet. Walks/check ins I can do solo. In the summer of 2026 i started a new job working from 100% unless traveling. Need accountabilibudies to. Help me step away from desk through the day. Also could use some extra money to cover my own dog care for when I need to travel for work Important to assess the needs of all dogs during a meet and greet prior to the first visit. When I am out and about the dogs are always leashed. If I have a dog staying with me, I never leave then out with my dog.I would separate them with a crate or a bedroom door. i would also feed separately

Jessica then followed up with clear communication, made sure I felt completely comfortable before the booking, and ensured all details of the day were clear. Throughout the day, she sent regular updates and the cutest photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear that Jessica genuinely cares about the dogs she watches.

About: Pets have always been an important part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Over the years, I've cared for my own cats and dogs as well as pets belonging to family, friends, neighbors, and Rover clients. Each pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs as well as kittens and adult cats. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'm happy to provide the care they need. I'm comfortable administering oral medications and injections when needed, and I always pay close attention to each pet's behavior, appetite, and overall well-being. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving you peace of mind that your pets are in good hands. I currently offer House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, and Dog Walking. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate booking requests whenever possible. House Sitting: My house sitting service is designed for pets who are comfortable being left alone between visits. During the day, I typically visit every 4 hours to provide potty breaks, meals, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention. If you'd like overnight care, overnight stays (10:00 PM–8:00 AM) are available as a $40/night add-on through Rover. If your pet has unique needs or a different routine, please let me know before booking so we can discuss the best care plan. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own, and I care for your home with the utmost respect. I carefully follow your pet's established routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care instructions. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care while helping your pet feel comfortable in their familiar environment. Safety is at the heart of every visit. I never leave dogs unattended outdoors, even in securely fenced yards. Whether we're outside for a potty break, playtime, or enjoying the fresh air, I remain with your pet at all times to ensure they're safe. Communication is important to me, so you'll receive regular updates and photos throughout your booking. If I notice anything out of the ordinary or have any concerns, I'll contact you promptly. To ensure we're the right fit, I recommend scheduling a Meet & Greet before every first booking. During this time, we'll review your pet's routine, discuss any medical or behavioral needs, and answer any questions you may have. For transparency and the comfort of everyone involved, I ask that clients disclose any indoor cameras before the booking begins. Cameras are welcome in common areas for home security, but they should never be placed in bathrooms or sleeping areas where privacy is expected.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every animal as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience caring for pets through managing homes and vacation rentals, along with volunteering for animal shelters and farms in Wisconsin, where I worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with senior pets, shy or anxious animals, administering basic routines, and keeping pets on a consistent schedule. I’m very detail-oriented, dependable, and communicative, so pet parents always know their animals are safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and manage my own schedule, which gives me a lot of flexibility and availability throughout the day. I’m able to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and companionship instead of pets being left alone for long periods. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so caring for them feels like a rewarding part of my routine rather than just a job. I also keep my schedule organized and communicate well with pet parents so they always feel informed and comfortable while they’re away. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully while giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and supervision. I also make sure the home stays clean, secure, and well cared for while owners are away. Because I work from home and manage my own schedule, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, companionship, and check-ins throughout the day instead of pets being left alone for long periods. I have experience with animals of different temperaments through volunteering with animal shelters and farms in Wisconsin, so I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, shy animals, and senior pets that may need extra patience and attention.
“natalie was on time, communicative, and caring! our dog is a special head case and doesn’t love everyone, but he likes her! most important, we felt comfortable with her taking him out and about while we were out of town. thanks a bunch natalie!”
About: 1) Experienced with dogs of all personalities and temperaments through several years of volunteering at Dogtown Rescue, where I learned how to safely handle dogs with different energy levels, behaviors, and needs. 2) Safety is always my top priority. I’m extremely attentive on walks and proactively avoid situations that could cause stress or unsafe interactions with unfamiliar dogs. 3) Detail-oriented and careful. Before every walk, I check that harnesses, collars, and leashes are properly fitted and secure to help keep your pet safe. 4) Patient and calm approach. I understand that every dog is different and take the time to make them feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. 5) I treat every pet like my own, providing dependable, loving care while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family member is in good hands. I currently have a hybrid job so I am able to provide care on various days and various times throughout the week. I also have flexibility weekends as I am often local. Prior to letting a dog out, I will always double check that fences and gates are properly closed. Additionally, prior to walks I always ensure that harnesses and leashes are properly working.

I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am a home body, so I am always at home and also have my mom and grandmom in the home to help if need be. In a clients home, I will leave it completely up to you, how I walk, feed, crate, etc. your dog. But I will always care for your dog as if they were my own! For pet sitting at my home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I usually walk the dogs on leashes around my yard or take them to the park by my house to walk them. I can crate them anywhere in the home if needed. I also have plenty of dog toys/crates/ dog accessories from my own dog.
About: Nice to meet you! I just graduated from Temple University. I grew up with cats and taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs throughout college. I work from home, so I can take care of your fur baby with ease! I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility. I can do daily check-ins or overnight stays for anyone with an anxious fur baby! Every visit, I will greet your cat with a gentle approach. If you leave me their favorite toys and treats, i’ll make sure they are active and rewarded! I work from home so I can do overnight stays for any anxious fur babies!
About: Looking for a cozy, home-like environment for your dog, whether it’s for the day or an extended stay? Look no further! I’ve been a lifelong pet lover, having cared for both dogs and cats. I’m also a proud volunteer with Home at Last Dog Rescue. My dachshund-beagle mix, Dixie, joined our family in 2020, and my beagle, Emily, was my very first foster fail! Our dogs love camping and exploring the great outdoors with us. Your dog will feel right at home in my fenced yard, a safe and fun space for running and playing. My senior pups will love having the extra company! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! My home is perfect for extended stays! I’ll keep your pet on a consistent schedule to maintain their familiar routine. While I work in the office three days a week, your pet will be safe and comfortable, either relaxing in a crate or spending time with my dogs in a designated area of the house. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who will enjoy keeping your dog company. If you’re comfortable with crate training, your dog can use a crate for quiet time when needed. On the days I work from home, my dogs stay with me in the same room, and I make sure they get plenty of exercise with daily walks or zooming around the backyard. I also have a cat who tends to keep a low profile around new furry friends. However, if your dog enjoys chasing cats, my home may not be the best fit.
About: My pet care experience goes far beyond simply loving animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, fish, horses, small mammals, and wildlife, and I recently earned my M.S. in Wildlife Science. I have worked as a dog walker, a pet/house/plant sitter, an animal research technician caring for mice, rats, rabbits, pigs, and dogs, and as a veterinary assistant at a mobile cat and dog vaccine clinic. I also have experience drawing blood and administering medication to a variety of domestic (cats, dogs) and wildlife animals (tortoises, bighorn sheep), so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and paying close attention to each animal’s needs. I am very much a cat person, too, and I understand that cats have different needs than dogs, including patience, quiet companionship, respect for boundaries, and careful attention to subtle changes in behavior. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to animal behavior, and I enjoy helping pets feel safe, whether they need a good walk, playtime, calm companionship, or plenty of cuddles. I currently work remotely part-time, which allows me to maintain a very flexible schedule for pet care. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, pet sitting, and plant care throughout the week. While I am not able to provide boarding in my own home, I am happy to provide overnight care in your home so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency by carefully following each client’s instructions and keeping pets in their familiar routines as much as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and household rules are handled with care. I also pay close attention to each pet’s body language, comfort level, and behavior, and I provide calm, respectful care that helps them feel secure while their owner is away.
“This was my first time using Rover to have my dog walked. Julian was a life saver. I sent a request for the day of. He responded quickly and was able to accommodate us same day. Julian sent pictures of Lola's walk. I would definitely use Julian's services again”
About: I'm very friendly, loving and playful. I pay attention to details so I can pick up when an animal is in the mood for play or chill time. My schedule is open therefore I have the time to walk the little fur pet around and take him or her to a local dog park if you're comfortable with that idea. I have always loved animals since I was a child and have always had a pet in my life. I talk to animals because even though they don't understand, I believe they should get all levels of attention. They are really are our lifeline I believe so you must show delicate care to these wonderful creatures. They are after all, a blessing. I love my fur babies and will treat yours as if they are my own!

I appreciate the extra effort in sending pictures & posts, especially for a 1st booking. So glad we found them and have confidence for subsequent bookings.”
“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.”
“Sarah was wonderful!! Our puppy Eleven had a great time playing with the two dogs in the house and Sarah was pleasant to work with. We made our reservation pn short notice for Christmas Eve and Sarah accommodated us. During the day, we told Sarah that we would be an hour late picking up the dog and she was totally flexible. Eleven made some new friends and we got a dependable and professional dog sitter out of the deal. We are so happy! Thank you Sarah!”
“Tom was flexible with our travel plans and his ability to accommodate our 3.5-year-old Golden Retriever. We really appreciated the opportunity to meet him and introduce him to Sadie in advance of our trip. He sent us pictures and it was obvious that she was treated well and was very content. It is reassuring to know that while you are on vacation your fur-baby is well-cared for.”

“I was so thankful to Allison and her daughters for taking such good care of my senior dog . My dog starts to become agitated the moment I leave him . I was so worried but I received a text and picture about an hour and a half later showing my dog relaxed and cuddling with one of her little girls❤️I received regular updates and pictures. My worries about leaving him were quickly put to rest . Allison and the girls treated him like their own. I am forever grateful. I cannot recommend Allison enough. 10 stars !!”
