“Sophia did an excellent job! She stayed at our home with our two dogs and everything went just perfectly! We got daily pictures and updates. We highly recommend Sophia!”
About: What sets me apart is my variety of experience with pets at every stage of life. I have experience caring for cats as well as dogs, and I’m attentive to their comfort, routines, and any extra care they may need. I also currently care for rescue kittens, so I’m comfortable with young animals who need gentle handling, consistency, and extra supervision. Overall, I provide calm, reliable, and genuinely loving care, treating every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I have 2 7 month old kittens so daily pet care is very important to me! I give them enrichment time, lots of love, and regular litter scooping and changes. I grew up with dogs, so walking, feeding, and caring for dogs is very important to me! I care for pets with a calm, attentive, and respectful approach, always following their usual routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. In your home i’ll help maintain consistency in their routines. I’ll keep their feeding on schedule, refresh water, provide whatever enrichment your pet needs, any medication administration, and clean up whatever mess they may get into!
“Elizabeth was an incredible pro through the whole process. This was our first time using Rover and having someone stay with our dogs at our residence and Elizabeth made the whole process great. She was even able to navigate one of our dogs who has some social anxiety and we can’t wait to hire her again!”
About: I’m a responsible and friendly student. I love animals and have done lots of pet-sitting in the past. I used to take care of two baby pups in addition to two young children when I babysat. I would regularly walk the dogs and take them out to use the bathroom. I’m working part time for West Chester in the summer so I’ll have time to walk into town and walk dogs, possibly even an overnight if that is needed. I can’t care for pets in my home because I live on campus however I know lots of parks locally that dogs would love to go to.
“We couldn’t be more pleased with Annie as our dog sitter! She took such great care of our high-energy, anxious pup, and we could tell from the start that our dog felt safe and loved in her care. Annie was incredibly communicative throughout her stay, sending us tons of updates, messages, and pictures, which made us feel at ease the entire time. It was clear she went above and beyond to ensure our pup was happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend Annie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter!”
About: I’ve loved animals all my life, and yours are no different! For the past 4 years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for peoples animals while they are away! While I’ve been pet sitting for the past 4 years, I also work in the Pet Retail & Grooming space as a Supervisor and Nail Tech! This gives me a unique advantage that provides me with experience, knowledge, and training outside of your traditional pet sitter! I also have experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and needs. From training puppies & kittens to caring for senior babies, and even blind pets, I truly have done it all! Exotics are also no big deal for me! I’m currently a college student on summer break, so I’ve got plenty of time for your pet. I work part time at a pet store, but easily fit your pets into my schedule! I treat all pets as if they were my own, and do my best to keep their schedule the same as it is when you’re home! I will also gather any information needed from you during a meet and greet with your pet so I can best ensure they are properly cared for!
“Marissa was awesome. She loved our pups so much when we were away. We came home to a clean house and happy pups. Allie was telling me all about it. She sent pictures daily and responded when immediately when I texted her. So glad we finally found our go to sitter.”
“This is the 2nd time Summer has dog sat for me in my home. She’s proactive, quick to communicate and is comfortable with my somewhat reactive but loving pup. I’ve booked her for 2 more trips.”
About: With vet tech experience and a lifelong passion for dogs, I provide knowledgeable and loving care. Having cared for pets since I was 10, I understand their needs, behaviors, and health cues. You can trust your babies will be happy, safe, and well-loved while in my care! As a full-time college student, I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy to prioritize your pet’s care. I’m an early riser, enjoy staying active, and love spending time with animals, so walking, playing, and caring for your pet will always be a top priority in my day! My goal is for you to have peace of mind while you're away. Whether I'm in your home or your pet is in mine, you can be assured that they are in a safe, well-maintained environment. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, given plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection :)
About: I have 4 years of pet sitting experience, including drop ins and overnight stays! I have cared for dogs with anxiety and those with lots of energy! I’ve found I enjoy working with all types of animals because I love to get to know their personalities and spend time with them. I am currently a nursing student which shows my inherent need to help others, including furry friends. I will take care of your pets as well as I do my own! I am currently home from college and working a part-time job. I am available anytime to watch your animals either that is stop by or stay over! I provide services in clients’ homes, where I follow the provided care instructions. I will actively interact with the animals while keeping the place clean.
“We had a fantastic experience. Our Lucy was clearly well cared for, happy, and loved, and our home was left spotless. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend Gabby and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
About: I absolutely love pets. I had a Bichon for 13 years and now spend time in love and care of other pets in their own homes. I have experience in rescues, fosters, family and friends in house sitting. Enjoy walking, playing and keeping your pet comfortable, safe and happy while you are away. I'm available bi-weekends throughout 2025-2026 school year. So starting 9/12-14, 26-28th, 10/10-13th, etc. I am available every other weekend Friday to Sunday if you need to get away. I am a teacher and single mom, who loves pets but can't have their own due to our apartment rules. Happy to help you with your pets. I will provide love, care, and attention to your pet in your own home by feeding it, excercise, potty, sleep schedule, etc. Enrichment and Fun.
“Angela was so wonderful! She stayed at my house for 5 days with my two dogs and cat and I truly was able to relax while I was away knowing they were in such good hands. She sent regular updates and pictures and was super responsive when I checked in. Would absolutely recommend Angela!”
About: Surrounded by animals from a very young age, I had 8 dogs while growing up, so I know how to spot behaviors and preferences in dogs! Love to keep to a good schedule and let the dog guide the visit! I have a pretty flexible schedule! Whatever your pet needs I’ll be able to accommodate, I do not shy away from more complicated routines! I love an excursion, so let’s create an vacay for your pet while you’re on your own! Also able to pick up and drop off your little guy/girl if needed! I have a fenced in yard and no current pets of my own! I also live right in WC borough so I’ll be able to do as many walks as they want/need!
“Tori was great with both of my pups!! She stayed at my house and watched the pups for a few nights and was great about giving me updates. She even went above and beyond when my power went out - she made sure to let me know and discuss possible options to make sure the pups would be in the best environment possible considering how cold it was outside and not having any heat at the house! Definitely recommend Tori & looking forward to booking with her again!!”

This was our first time using Rover. Alicia was great. She met with us a couple of times before dog/house sitting. Alicia was prompt returning messages and we were very comfortable leaving our 13 year old lab in her care. Throughout the stay, Alicia sent us pictures and videos. We will definitely use Alicia again in the future.
Gabrielle went above and beyond to take care of our senior dog, who needs a little extra t.l.c. due to illness and anxiety. She was very responsive and responsible and kept us updated and reassured while we were away. She not only took excellent care of our dog, but also kept our home clean and neat and left everything better than she found it. We highly recommend Gabrielle and will not hesitate to hire her again!
Annie was terrific with our attention-seeking, energetic, and noisy Doberman. She stayed at our house for several days while we were away and took wonderful care of him. Annie sent regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind and made it easy to relax knowing everything at home was going well. From what we can tell, our pup may have been even better behaved for Annie than he is for us. 🤣 From the house-sitting perspective, everything was perfect when we returned. Despite rainy weather (and plenty of muddy paws), the house was spotless. We highly recommend Annie and look forward to having her watch our Dobie again.
Paige is the BEST! Our dog isn’t the easiest pup, but she handles him with total ease. She’s introduced fun games that keep him occupied and mentally challenged, which has made such a difference. Paige sends several updates each day (with photos!), and we always come home to a house that’s in great shape. We wholeheartedly recommend her to care for your furry kids while you’re away!
Gabby is a delight! This is the second time we've had her over to dog sit for us. Our pup loves her and she's so sweet. We appreciate that she's willing to hang out with Evie for a couple hours while we are out so she doesn't get into any trouble. Thanks again, Gabby!
