“Wendy and Daniel were absolutely wonderful. We get nervous leaving our Boston terrier if the person is not familiar with the brachiocephalic breed and they made us so comfortable at the meet and greet! Barney had the best time and can’t wait to book again.”
“We are so grateful to have found Olive to dog sit for our pup. She was well taken care of and it gave us such a peace of mind to find someone we can trust. We especially loved to have a daily communication with a picture showing she was happy there.”
“We, including our dog, LOVE Sarah. She was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. We received frequent updates and pictures. We met her before she dogs to make sure our dog was comfortable at her place. Everything went smoothly and we would definitely be using her services again in the future.”
“Had Athena with Allen and Anne Maria while I was traveling. Had the meet and great and that went well.Athena had fun and loved running in the yard, and playing with their dog. I highly recommend and will return.”
“I just moved to the area and needed a sitter while traveling on business. I have a senior dog with Cushings disease and cancer. It killed me to leave her for a few days. But Ceinwen did a great job caring for her, and it wasn’t long until I could tell she felt right at home.”
“Tyler was the perfect fit for Rosco and our family. He was easy to communicate with and provided updates and photos of our dog during our weekend trip away. We will definitely reuse him for future boarding and sitting.”
“Heather is an excellent pet sitter! Our little senior dog, Miki, stayed with her for a week while we were on vacation. Heather responded to all messages very promptly and is a great communicator. She followed all instructions to the letter and kept us updated on how our little boy was doing. At one point, Miki seemed to be feeling under the weather. Heather calmly shared her concerns and we were able to talk through a solution together. When we picked Miki up, he was happy and comfortable in Heather’s home. I would recommend Heather without hesitation!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Michael & Loraine! It was our first time leaving Bomi with someone outside of family, and they were so patient, kind, and reassuring from the start — answering all our questions and even inviting us to see their clean, spacious home before booking. While we were away, they kept in touch with thoughtful updates and photos, and it was clear Bomi was happy, comfortable, and loved like family. We’re so grateful for their care, attention, and kindness, and would absolutely trust them with Bomi again. Highly recommend!”
“Mikaila was amazing and Cleo had such a great time with her! And when there was a miscommunication about pick up time she went above and beyond to help us out which we so so appreciated! I would definitely recommend Mikaila :)”
“Andrew and Jacklynn were fantastic sitters for our pup, Stella. We needed boarding very last minute and they were so accommodating to our needs and loving to Stella. Their pup Rocky is so sweet and gentle (my daughter loved petting him!) and was easygoing with Stella. I felt great going away for 4-5 days knowing she had pup friends and great humans caring for her. Definitely will choose them again and highly recommend!”
“Just picked my pups up from another stay with Coleen. She does an excellent job with the dogs, takes care of all their needs, and is a fantastic communicator. Great yard for the dogs to roam, and invites them into the home like they are her own. Already booked with Coleen for another stay later in the summer.”
“Lauren and family took great care of my little girl. She is a rambunctious German shepherd and they took to her well. Sent me updates/pics, and were very responsive when I sent a message. Would absolutely repeat.”
“This was our first time boarding our dog, Gus, with Amanda. She was amazing and completely put our minds at ease. She sent awesome daily photo/video updates, handled his medication routine perfectly, and was great about letting us know any issues he had during his stay. Our dog had a blast running in the yard, making new friends, and came home totally happy. If you want 100% peace of mind, Amanda is the best! 10/10 recommend.”
“Mariia was a wonderful sitter to my dog. She was kind and always very quick to respond to any questions I had. She truly cared for my dog and I could see in the photos she sent that my dog was happy when we were away. I will ask her to watch my dog again!”
“Katie is wonderful. She is caring and attentive to our cat Moscato. She sees to it that Moscato is happy and comfortable. I am very happy that Katie accepted to take care of him.”
About: I have always had a strong love for animals and enjoy being around them. I currently have a bunny, a dog, and a bird, and I have also cared for many reptiles in the past. I have experience working with dogs at a dog daycare, where I helped care for, feed, bathe, play with, and give attention to the dogs. Animals genuinely make me happy, and I love spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Animals are a big part of our everyday routine! We love spending time with our dogs by taking them on walks, playing with them, giving them lots of attention, and of course, plenty of cuddles. We make sure our pets get the care, exercise, and love they need throughout the day, and we really enjoy making them feel happy, comfortable, and part of our family. I always prioritize pets’ safety and comfort by keeping a close eye on them, following their routines and instructions, using leashes when needed, making sure they have fresh water, and keeping their environment clean and secure.
“Our dog Milo had a great time with Tatiana! I feel he also went on vacation, lots of love from both Tatiana and Sean. She updated me with pics every day! Definitely recommended and will rebook in the future.”

“Liz did a great job with our two cats, coming over twice a day and reporting on their goings on. One hid from her most of the time, but she made sure to check that he was eating and otherwise around while she was not there. Her comments every day made me laugh--she definitely pegged their personalities quickly. Would totally reserve with Liz again. Thank you!”
“Kim was amazing with our two cats! One is very old and needs some extra care and Kim was patient and kind with her to ensure she was well taken care of during our time away. Kim’s communication was great during sitting and we will not hesitate to book her again for future sitting needs.”
“Victoria was fantastic with our cats! We have three boys, including one with a sensitive stomach who needs regular meds, and she handled it all with such great intuition — picking up on their individual quirks and making them feel comfortable right away. She was diligent about administering medications on schedule, made time for playtime every visit, and always left the litter boxes clean and water bowls refilled. What really stood out was her communication — we got thoughtful updates and photos after every visit, so we never had to wonder how things were going at home. It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We came home to happy, healthy, well-adjusted cats and zero stress. Highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pets like her own!”
“Heather took great care of our cat, and kept us informed with detailed check in reports. It’s clear she is an animal lover and treats the pets she is caring for, like her own. I would definitely recommend Heather to anyone needing a pet sitter!”
“Once again, Amy did a terrific job with Sylvester! She was on time every day, sent great reports and so many pictures! It's great to see Sylvester happy and playing with his toys when I'm not there. I can tell he likes Amy because she has sent pictures of him waiting at the top of the steps - he only does that when he's excited to see someone! Will definitely be having Amy care for Sylvester whenever I travel. It's great to come home to a happy, healthy pet.”
“We were so happy to have Delaney care for our 2 kittens while we were away. We loved hearing her daily reports on their activities and seeing her pictures. She was also able to administer their medicine. We could tell they received lots of love and were well cared for with Delaney!”
“Meghan was really flexible and took our booking last minute. She was able to administer our cats medication without difficulty and was very communicative. You can definitely rely on her to take care of your pets. When the snow came, she still made it out to care for them. She is great!”
“This was Kaitlyn’s first visit with our dog. She is punctual and friendly, and it is obvious that she likes animals. We appreciated her help today and will book again!”
“Brooke is very kind and thoughtful. She took care of my cat while I was away on a work trip. Kitty doesn’t like anyone, but Brooke followed my directions and was communicative and awesome to work with. Thanks!”
“Erin was great for us. We had never used Rover before booking with Erin so we were not sure what to expect but she went over everything before hand and set up a meet and greet which was very reassuring. Erin was super thoughtful and thorough throughout which was very much appreciated. We would absolutely rebook with Erin in the future as she was one of the best pet sitters we have ever had.”
“Katrina is always thoughtful and cares deeply for your furry kids. She’s always making sure everything is right, and if not, she’ll figure out a way to make it right.”

“This was our first time using Rover and leaving Mochi with a sitter. Jason was so responsive from the start. He sent lots of photos and it was evident he’s a pro! Mochi had a great day!! I would recommend him everytime! Thank you again!”
“Allan and Anne Marie were very friendly, kind and patient when getting to know our very energetic 11-month old dog during our initial meet and greet and were very accommodating. They have a wonderful clean fenced-in yard and property to allow for ample space and play time with their sweet Chesapeake Bay Retriever. Our dog came home happy and tired! We will definitely use them again for daycare and boarding in the future.”

“Our 11 month old Cavapoo seemed to be very happy with her stay. They sent a ton of photos and it was an added bonus that they have a very nice dog. She was able to hang with her new friend all day. They are very responsive and flexible. we feel comfortable booking them for extended overnight stays.”
“We are so excited to have found Amanda on rover and our dog Moss loves his day care days with her! He's been a much happier boy since.

It really feels like she listens, cares, and goes the extra mile to take care of him!”
“Mariia was very kinda and welcoming to my 2 month old puppy coco. She made sure she was fed, had, water and went to the bathroom every 2 hours. Coco loved playing with her young son and she sent some great pictures. She was very flexible with my schedule and I very much appreciated that!”
“Sandy loved to go to Kim's home every morning. He enjoyed the loving care of Kim and family and the company of sweet and friendly Nala. I am glad I found Kim on Rover. I had to drive long hours to NJ for work several days. Kim and family took care of very playful "toddler" Sandy with patience.”

“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.”
“My dogs absolutely loved Heather & had a great time! She took very great care of them, and I believe her daughter helped out, as well. I will definitely be using Heather again!!😊”
About: 15 years caring for my family dog and now my own dog, plus regular walks, drop-ins, and overnight care for neighbors, friends, and family pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of every size. Millie, the Bernese Mountain Dog you’ll see in my photos, is my boyfriend’s dog; she lives at his house, not mine, but I walk and care for her often, and at over 100 pounds she’s proof that a big dog who pulls or needs a confident handler is no problem for me. I’m experienced with administering oral medications, managing leash-reactive dogs on walks, and handling standard crate and feeding routines. I keep detailed notes on each pet’s needs and I always have your vet’s information on hand in case of an emergency. At home it’s just me and Hank, my golden retriever. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with grassy areas, sidewalks for walking, and a designated pet relief area right outside. Hank is friendly with other dogs, so I’ll be upfront about whether your pet would be a good match before booking. I work from home on a standard weekday schedule, so I’m available for early morning visits before 9, midday walks and drop-ins, and evenings. Weekends are wide open. I can usually accommodate same-day requests; just message me. Safety Your pet’s safety comes first in every decision I make. I keep dogs leashed and harnessed any time we’re outside my apartment, including in hallways, elevators, and the lobby, since other residents and dogs come around corners without warning. I check the weather before every walk and adjust; short routes and shaded paths in heat, and salt-free surfaces and less time outside in the cold. Before the first visit, I collect your vet’s name and number, an emergency contact, and any medical history I should know about, including allergies, medications, and reactivity around other dogs. If anything seems wrong, you’ll hear from me immediately. Trust I’m a full-time HR professional, so handling sensitive information carefully is already how I work. I treat your keys, door codes, and home the same way. Keys are labeled with your pet’s name only, never an address or unit number, and they’re stored securely at my place when I’m not using them. I send photos and an update after every single visit, so you always know exactly what happened and when. I don’t bring anyone along on visits, and I don’t share photos of your pet publicly without asking first. If plans change on my end, you’ll hear about it early rather than at the last minute. Environment I live in a pet-friendly apartment community in Lansdale with sidewalks, grassy areas, and a designated pet relief area just outside the building. My own dog, Hank, lives here with me, and I’m upfront about whether he’s a good match for your pet before I accept a booking. My home is dog-proofed already; trash is secured, cords are tucked away, and anything unsafe stays out of reach. In your home, I stick to the areas you tell me to use and leave everything as I found it, including lights, doors, and thermostat.

“We just had our second meet-and-greet with Kim, and we are already impressed! She was very professional, punctual and took the time to ask questions about Duke’s routine and personality. You can tell Kim loves animals and Duke warmed up instantly. We feel completely confident in booking with Kim again for our future dog walking needs and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet caregiver!”

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 could not have been happier with Heather. And I think my 85 lb Shepard felt the same. She can be a handful on some walks but not for Heather. I've found a permanent walker in Heather.”

“We are so grateful to have found Olive to dog sit for our pup. She was well taken care of and it gave us such a peace of mind to find someone we can trust. We especially loved to have a daily communication with a picture showing she was happy there.”
“We, including our dog, LOVE Sarah. She was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. We received frequent updates and pictures. We met her before she dogs to make sure our dog was comfortable at her place. Everything went smoothly and we would definitely be using her services again in the future.”
“Had Athena with Allen and Anne Maria while I was traveling. Had the meet and great and that went well.Athena had fun and loved running in the yard, and playing with their dog. I highly recommend and will return.”
“I just moved to the area and needed a sitter while traveling on business. I have a senior dog with Cushings disease and cancer. It killed me to leave her for a few days. But Ceinwen did a great job caring for her, and it wasn’t long until I could tell she felt right at home.”
“Tyler was the perfect fit for Rosco and our family. He was easy to communicate with and provided updates and photos of our dog during our weekend trip away. We will definitely reuse him for future boarding and sitting.”
“Heather is an excellent pet sitter! Our little senior dog, Miki, stayed with her for a week while we were on vacation. Heather responded to all messages very promptly and is a great communicator. She followed all instructions to the letter and kept us updated on how our little boy was doing. At one point, Miki seemed to be feeling under the weather. Heather calmly shared her concerns and we were able to talk through a solution together. When we picked Miki up, he was happy and comfortable in Heather’s home. I would recommend Heather without hesitation!”
“Andrew and Jacklynn were fantastic sitters for our pup, Stella. We needed boarding very last minute and they were so accommodating to our needs and loving to Stella. Their pup Rocky is so sweet and gentle (my daughter loved petting him!) and was easygoing with Stella. I felt great going away for 4-5 days knowing she had pup friends and great humans caring for her. Definitely will choose them again and highly recommend!”
“Just picked my pups up from another stay with Coleen. She does an excellent job with the dogs, takes care of all their needs, and is a fantastic communicator. Great yard for the dogs to roam, and invites them into the home like they are her own. Already booked with Coleen for another stay later in the summer.”
“Lauren and family took great care of my little girl. She is a rambunctious German shepherd and they took to her well. Sent me updates/pics, and were very responsive when I sent a message. Would absolutely repeat.”
“This was our first time boarding our dog, Gus, with Amanda. She was amazing and completely put our minds at ease. She sent awesome daily photo/video updates, handled his medication routine perfectly, and was great about letting us know any issues he had during his stay. Our dog had a blast running in the yard, making new friends, and came home totally happy. If you want 100% peace of mind, Amanda is the best! 10/10 recommend.”
“Katie is wonderful. She is caring and attentive to our cat Moscato. She sees to it that Moscato is happy and comfortable. I am very happy that Katie accepted to take care of him.”
About: I have always had a strong love for animals and enjoy being around them. I currently have a bunny, a dog, and a bird, and I have also cared for many reptiles in the past. I have experience working with dogs at a dog daycare, where I helped care for, feed, bathe, play with, and give attention to the dogs. Animals genuinely make me happy, and I love spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Animals are a big part of our everyday routine! We love spending time with our dogs by taking them on walks, playing with them, giving them lots of attention, and of course, plenty of cuddles. We make sure our pets get the care, exercise, and love they need throughout the day, and we really enjoy making them feel happy, comfortable, and part of our family. I always prioritize pets’ safety and comfort by keeping a close eye on them, following their routines and instructions, using leashes when needed, making sure they have fresh water, and keeping their environment clean and secure.
“Theresa took great care of Ollie while I was away for 9 days out of the country traveling. Seeing the pictures and videos Theresa sent over daily, I know Ollie is having a great time. Thank you again Theresa!”
“Our pup was well taken care of enjoyed his time with Robert hanging out or walking in the park. We received several updates and pictures. Would recommend Robert! Always easy drop off and pick up and our pup seems happy to be there.”
“Yujie was fantastic with our dog while we were away for a week. She was easy to communicate with prior to the trip and set up a meet and greet so we could make sure Lacey was comfortable with her and in her home. During the trip she provided daily updates and we felt like Lacey was having a great time. Would definitely trust Yujie with our dog again next time we travel!”
“Lexi took amazing care of our dog, Stormi! We were initially nervous about leaving her, but Lexi made the entire experience so much easier. She consistently sent us photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also made sure Stormi got all of her medication on time, and it was clear she truly cared about her well-being. Knowing Stormi was safe, loved, and well cared for meant everything to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we would absolutely trust Lexi with Stormi again. Highly recommend!”
