“Howie had a great time with Hannah! She was so attentive to him, texted me photos, kept me updated. She alerted me to something she had noticed, and I knew he was in really good hands! Thanks Hannah!!”
“A dream team! Great house sitters, communicators, and Kai and Devon were so patient with our shy, nervous rescue. Our dog had a traumatic previous life, so their understanding that building a relationship with our Fern is a long game is a breath of fresh air. Other folks tend to want Fern to love them right away and can be pushy or sad that she doesn’t show love, but Kai and Devon’s experience with nervous dogs is evident. Their patience affirms our Fern is always in good hands.”
“Taylor saved the day by taking a last-minute booking request (in the middle of having floors replaced in the house). It was chaotic to say the least, but she was very flexible, communicative, and took great care of the dogs. I was given regular updates the whole time.”
“Roxanne was a pleasure to have house-sit/dog-sit and care for our dog, Lola. She was an excellent communicator, prompt, sent plenty of photos (giving us peace of mind and seeing how comfortable our dog was with her). We would highly recommend Roxanne.”
“Kathy is professional, courteous and incredibly conscientious. She treated my dogs as if they were her own. They clearly loved her and were happier than they have ever been while I was away! I can't say enough good things about her!”
“Ali is a delight! She took great care of my dog and my house while I was away. I could tell that my dog was very happy and had a great time on their daily walks. Ali is also able to handle special requests as my dog has some anxiety and needed some extra attention. She also was great at providing updates. Highly recommend Ali!”
About: I'm an animal person that values clear communication. I love long walks equally to fuzzy couch cuddles, and my favorite part of the job is getting to know a new pet. I will follow all directions you leave for me, ask questions if I need clarity, and then I will send photos / updates throughout my stay. I work remotely and am available to hang out at your house as well, so your baby doesn't get lonely while you're gone. I'm an avid plant mom & can take care of your plants as well. I'm currently working remotely, and have flex hours, so I have plenty of flexibility to take your pet out! I'm also available to hang out at your house during my workday - I just need a Wi-Fi signal to use my laptop. Im 33 years old & very boring, I just work on my laptop, hang with friends or husband, and go to the gym, you can trust me. I would like us and your fur baby to meet in advance of booking, so that we know it's a good fit & everyone is on the same page.
“Melanie was a huge help. Having a dog with anxiety it’s hard to know who should care for Blaze. Melanie gave her outside time, treats and rubs and we came home to a very happy dog! ( a first!). It was so nice knowing our pup was well cared for . Melanie communicated well, was on time, answered any questions I had as a new dog parent and understood our dog’s needs. Thank you Melanie! We would love to have her over again.”
“All I can say is thank you! Angela came in and saved us last minute when we were in need of a sitter for our little man. This would have been our second time ever leaving him alone with someone else and we’re scared. However, Angela took care of him as if he was her own. Don’t second guess it and definitely get her assistance! Thank you so much Angela!!”

“This is the 2nd time Joanna has stayed with our dog for over a week while on vacation! She loves on and takes care of our dog like she were her own! I highly recommend entrusting your pets to Joanna- she is a gem and we love her! <3”
About: Hi! I’m Sydney. My best Christmas ever was when my parents surprised me with my first cat when I was 13. Ever since then, I’ve never gone without having a cat by my side. I currently have two cats and a dog. My pets are family- I would do anything for them. I know how important it is to trust the person you choose to care for your pets, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I’m huge on communication. Rover requires to send at least one photo during the visit, I’ll send 10. You’ll never have to worry about me taking long to respond or giving short responses. I treat my clients how I would want my own sitters to treat my pets! I work full-time in office, but my schedule rotates frequently and the hours are not always the same, so I have a ton of flexibility. I have no issue working 10 hours and going straight to your home. I will care for your pets with the same love and affection as I do for my own! I will follow your care instructions very closely and keep you updated on how your pets are doing. *Covid conscientious: happy to wear a mask during any meet-and-greets!*
About: Reliable, fun, and experienced pet sitter with a deep love for both dogs and cats. A Philadelphia native, I grew up in Chestnut Hill and attended the University of Pennsylvania. Born into a family of animal lovers, I spent my childhood taking care of numerous dogs, cats, parakeets, fish, and lizards. I'm skilled in handling dogs of all breeds and temperaments, with a strong understanding of canine behavior, basic training techniques, and health needs. I have a calm nature and pets usually warm to me quickly. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or administering medications, I'm committed to maintaining a stress-free environment. I'm trusted by pet parents for consistent communication, dependability, and respect for their furry family members. I also get rave reviews for my pet photos! All the pictures posted on my profile were taken in the last few months. I recently decided to take a break from the corporate world to focus on what I love most: Dogs and the great outdoors! I'm looking to walk dogs during the week with some weekends depending on my schedule. I'm also available for cat and dog vacation visits during the week and holidays. I like to take my dogs out for multiple walks daily. I'm a big hiker and will make sure your pooch gets a great workout! With less active dogs, playtime is focused at home with short walks around the neighborhood. I also grew up with cats and understand the importance of play and mental stimulation.
“Ashley did a fantastic job watching our two small dogs and caring for our home while we were away on a month-long vacation. She kept everything running smoothly—watering plants, bringing in the mail, and making sure the house stayed in great shape. She kept us updated with messages and photos of the dogs, which gave us real peace of mind. Everything was spotless when we returned, and the dogs were clearly well cared for. I’d happily use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful pet and house sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m Olivia, and dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always surrounded by pups—big and small, young and old—and caring for them quickly became second nature. From daily walks and training to belly rubs and senior care, I’ve been hands-on with every stage of a dog’s life. Over the years, I’ve learned how to read dog body language, build trust with shy or anxious pups, and provide the kind of attention and love that makes them feel safe and happy. Whether your dog is high-energy and loves long walks or prefers slow strolls and snuggles, I tailor my care to fit their personality and needs. My dogs are my babies—and I’d be honored to care for yours like one of my own. I currently work full-time in the area. I can be available for a quick morning and/or mid-day check in within my radius, and free to stay with your babies after 5pm. Safety, Trust & Comfort First—Always Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their well-being and happiness are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where safety comes first—no loose wires, no unsafe spaces, and always supervised play and rest time. I am always learning about pet safety for my home and will continue learning! In your home, I follow your routines closely to help your pet feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. I respect your space and keep it tidy, making sure your pet’s needs—like walks, feeding, medications, and cuddle time—are handled with care and attention to detail. In my home, pets enjoy a peaceful environment with plenty of cozy spots to relax, playtime, and one-on-one attention. I never take more pets than I can safely and comfortably care for, so your fur baby always gets my full focus. Trust is everything, and I’m committed to building it with both you and your pet through consistency, communication, and lots of love.
“Rachel did a great job watching our Mia while we were away! Rachel communicated with us and sent us photos throughout our trip. We felt very comfortable having her stay in our home. When we returned— Mia was happy and our house was in great condition. We will definitely use Rachel in the future!”

Julia W.
“Julia has been our number one dog sitter for over a decade!! As avid travelers and dog lovers, it's comforting to know that we can leave our puppies for long stretches of time without worrying about their happiness and safety.

She is patient and kind and has a genuine love for animals. We adore Julia!”

She kept everything running smoothly—watering plants, bringing in the mail, and making sure the house stayed in great shape. She kept us updated with messages and photos of the dogs, which gave us real peace of mind. Everything was spotless when we returned, and the dogs were clearly well cared for. I’d happily use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful pet and house sitter.
Tommy stayed at our home and watched our 1 year old puppy, Ralph, for 4 days / 3 nights in July. Ralph loved him from the start - which made us feel better about leaving him for the long weekend. Tommy communicated well throughout the booking process, and arrived right on time. He kept us updated on Ralph during our vacation, and never left us hanging. We came back to a clean home, and a happy and healthy pup. Ralph isn’t easy - he requires a lot of attention, playtime, and even to be carried up the stairs right now - not a single complaint from our sitter! We would highly recommend Tommy for any of your house and dog sitting needs.
Hannah was great. She arrived on time for our meet-and-greet and for the stay itself, asked good questions when I forgot to give her certain information, sent photos, and took excellent care of our Westie, Piper. She is responsible and serious about following care instructions but she also has a sunny, upbeat disposition and was enthusiastic about spending time with Piper. We came home to a happy pup and a clean home.
Luisa was an absolutely life saver & sent from above. We had a horrible accident with our previous dog sitter in March & I had so many reservations leaving our new puppy alone for the first time with a new sitter. Luisa was professional, attentive & superior in every way. My fur babies felt loved & cared for the entire time we were away. She also went above & beyond with both pets - for example, teaching our puppy to walk on a leash, bringing our cat a kitty puzzle, etc. We couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
Mike was amazing with my dogs! I have 2 large, energetic pups and he made sure to get them outside a lot for play time:) He is very professional and caring. I felt so good knowing my babies were being well taken care of while I was on vacation. I highly recommend Mike
Emily was so amazing with my boys. She sent me pictures day and night while we were out of town.,which helped put my mind at ease. I am so grateful that I as able to pet sit my boys overnight.I plan on having Emily take care of my fur babies again in the future. I am 110% please with all she had done in my absence.
