“Alexandra takes amazing care of my cats - one is a bit skittish and she has consistently taken the time to get him comfortable with her which gives me so much peace of mind. She is so thoughtful when she stops by and will clean bowls, vacuum around the litter box and clean it out which is so nice to come home to! I’ve had Alexandra come watch Finn and Simon a few times and will absolutely have her take care of them again!”
“Joanna was great. I booked her to drop in to walk my dog. I appreciate her good communication and her follow-up, including a picture and details of her visit. I have already booked her again.”
“Daphne and Rosie seemed to really hit it off. (Love the pics of Daphne scratching the top of Rosie's head!) Rosie seemed quite happy and content when we arrived back home. Daphne was prompt on her arrival times and all was in order with the house. We would definitely have Daphne care for Rosie again.”
About: I have worked at PlayTime Pet Resort, a pet boarding facility. Additionally, I have experience in pet sitting and walking for families in my neighborhood. I am a full time student while playing a collegiate sport. Nights during the weekday and all day on the weekends work best for my schedule. I have a cat and dog at home who I keep active by providing a stimulating environment. Using my experience in pet sitting and walking, I can ensure that I take great care of pets while cleaning up after them.
“Briana was very communicative and made sure our cat was well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be reaching out to her first when we have about her trip”
“This was our first time hiring a pet sitter for our 2 cats. And right away Rhea put us at ease and had amazing communication throughout the whole process. She arrived right on time and sent us several photos of her playing with them throughout the visit. Could not recommend her enough and will certainly be hiring her in the future for any of our pet sitting needs. 10/10 HIGHLY recommended! Thank you so much again :)”
“Ulku and Andy are incredibly patient and very easy to communicate! They took great care of my dog, and I know I can always trust them to take her on walks when I’m away. Highly recommend!”
“Victoria was amazing with my 5 month old puppy, Luka. She walked him even when it was very hot outside but still made sure he got his exercise and outdoor time! She made sure to feed him and give him water, taking care of my pups wellbeing:) I will definitely be rebooking for future walks!!”
“Ashley did a fantastic job caring for our two kittens! She was incredibly communicative and sent detailed recaps after each visit, along with great photos. She was patient with our kitties, and they became more and more comfortable with each visit—it was so great to see. We will definitely be booking with Ashley again!”
“Talia was super easy to communicate with and incredibly proactive. She took great care of our dog, always kept us in the loop, and gave us complete peace of mind. We were truly able to enjoy our little break knowing our dog was in such great hands.”
“Erica took care of my dog Darla for two days and she is great! Darla is very happy with her, and she responds to my last minute questions very quickly when a false alarm arose ( I thought I booked the wrong service but it turned out to be all good). Thank you Erica!”
“Brittany is an awesome cat sitter. She has taken care of our cats multiple times and is super reliable and communicative. We know we can trust Brittany and that our cats are in good hands.”
“Mey is the absolute best. So patient and kind with our guy, and very thoughtful and professional with us. You can sense the compassion and mutual respect, and we have loved every minute of having her drop in. Thank you so!”
“Talia clearly loves dogs and is a tremendous communicator. She did drop in visits for our dog while we were away overnight and it was seamless. We knew our dog was in great hands and would 100% use Talia again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals since I was a young child. I got my first dog when I was 5 and currently have 2 dogs and 6 cats of my own. Additionally, I regularly volunteered at a dog shelter growing up and have been volunteering at a farm over the last decade. I currently work Monday-Friday from 8:15 to 5:00 but I am available to feed and play with your pets before and after work. I am free any time during most weekends to give your babies all of the love and attention they deserve! When caring for your pet at your home, I can play with the pet indoors (or in a yard if you have one), and can give your dog walks around your neighborhood. Additionally, my house has a spacious, fenced yard as well as two of my own friendly fur babies to keep your dog company if you would prefer to drop your pup off.
About: Hi! I’m a local dog lover in the Bryn Mawr/Main Line area offering dog walking and in-home pet sitting. I am currently focusing on dog walking as I transition and build my business I’m transitioning into retirement, which gives me a flexible schedule and lets me focus on what I enjoy most—spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away or busy. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel comfortable with me right away. Light check-ins, feeding, and morning potty breaks or walks for house sitting clients. ⸻ 🌤 Midday My main dog walking window in the Bryn Mawr/Main Line area. Walks are calm, unhurried, and tailored to each dog’s energy level. ⸻ 🌇 Afternoon Drop-in visits or additional walks if needed, plus companionship time for house sitting stays. ⸻ 🌙 Evening Feeding, evening walks, and making sure pets are settled and comfortable for the night. ⸻ Because I’m transitioning into retirement, I’m able to keep my schedule flexible and focus on providing consistent, attentive care without rushing. I take dogs on long walks. I do have a crate in my home, but typically if I am leaving I set up a bed and den like atmosphere in my second floor laundry room which I gate do the dog stays safe. I run an Airbnb in my third floor so while I can watch dogs in my home, in house at the dog’s home is preferable. I am extremely safety conscious and when I have dogs over I try to keep them in my sight at all times. If they love cuddling, they will get tons of cuddles from me
About: Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile and consider me as a care taker for your animal while you are away! I have grown up with dogs (and the occasional bird & fishies). For the past 12 years, I've lived with and visited my best bud Zeke at my parent's house. I would love to have a dog of my own in the future, however for now I am hoping and so happy to take care of other's loved ones during the week and on weekends! I'm an active individual and enjoy taking dogs on walks, for car rides and the occasional ice cream or pup cup. I will give your animal all the love that they've come to expect because they certainly deserve it! Please reach out with any questions, and thanks again for thinking of me! :) I currently work full time (9-5) Monday-Friday, however I usually work from home Friday's and am available on weekends for full time pet care. During the week, I am able to visit (feed, walk, take out for bathroom needs) early in the morning (between 5:30 am to 7 am and in the evening (between 6-9 pm) In my current apartment, pets are welcome visitors. However, I am also happy to visit your home multiple times a day and stay with your pet when needed, especially if you are close! I work only 20 minutes away so I would have ample time in the morning and especially in the evening to stop by to feed, toilet, walk and play with your pet! This is especially great if your pet doesn’t do well in a new environment; I am happy to provide them with everything they’d need in a place where they feel the most comfortable!

Villanova pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alexandra was great! We were in need of a cat sitter a week leading up to our vacation and Alexandra accepted the job on short notice. She came over for a meet and greet and explained how Rover works within a few days. We were gone for over a week and each day Alexandra checked in through Rover sending us updates. We got 8-12 photos of our cats each day which we really enjoyed. No issues at all! Vacation is much more relaxing when you know your pets are being well taken care of. Alexandra made things worry free for us!
Ashley did a fantastic job caring for our two kittens! She was incredibly communicative and sent detailed recaps after each visit, along with great photos. She was patient with our kitties, and they became more and more comfortable with each visit—it was so great to see. We will definitely be booking with Ashley again!
This was my first experience booking someone I didn't already know to watch our 11-year old Cavalier while we were traveling for 5 days. Julie was perfect! she was so responsible, timely and loving with our dog. She did a great job communicating and there were no issues. I will be booking Julie again!
Alex sid twice-daily walks with our lab mix (who loved Alex immediately!) and provided care for our bearded dragon while we were out of town for a week. Our animals got great care and attention, and Alex was punctual and provided great daily communication. Highly recommend!
