Jeremy and Rui treated my boy Zero with so much love and care and zero was very taken care of while I have been gone. They communicated very well with me and kept me very informed of how he was doing. The meet and greet went very well as well and they got to know Zero and asked a lot of great questions and answered every question I had as well. Highly recommend them!

About: I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs and flat faced dogs, frenchies, pugs, bulldogs, etc. I own two French bulldogs myself and administer all types of medication. I am semi-retired from a Corporate career and have recently decided to start my own dog walking business. I am currently trying to build up my clientele to hopefully create a doggie daycare in the near future. I will have a fenced in yard by the end of summer 2025, currently in progress. I have a few separate areas where pups can relax and veg out as well as play inside.

Meghan took great care of Dakota while we were away for a few hours. She gave her lots of frisbee time, and breaks and water to cool her off because it was a hot day. She is very caring and a true dog person. :-) Dakota was so relaxed and happy when we arrived home. We found Meghan at the last minute and are so grateful that she was available. Such a relief. We highly recommend her.

About: I have experience working with dogs and cats through pet sitting and hospital experience. I have owned dogs for the past 16 years, chinchillas for the past 5 years, and hedgehogs for the past 7 years. I am able to detect symptoms and abnormalities that may require medical attention. I enjoy bringing my pets to a variety of places such as state parks, pet stores and public pet events. I am available most weekdays and weekends. I do not mind staying over for overnight care. My time is pretty flexible for now and I am able to drive to locations within an hour radius using my own car. I have a finished basement that would be used for the pets I care for. It has a bathroom with a hand held shower for easy bathing. I have a crate available for use for dogs under 30 pounds. The basement also has direct access to the back yard for easier potty times. The temperature in the basement is cool during the summer. In the winter the temperature would be adjusted using an electric fire place. Dogs would get enrichment through daily walks, puzzle toys and trick training. Cats would have access to the whole basement to free roam but will not have access to outdoors.

Isabelle was fantastic! She was quick to respond and take on a last minute request to drop in and take care of my two dogs. She was very nice, asked questions to make sure she knew everything to take care of them, and was communicative during her time with my dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs knowing she was watching them. I will definitely reach out again for future bookings.

About: I’m a devoted dog lover and stay-at-home pet caregiver with a friendly, nearly 5-year-old beagle who adores canine company. I have lots of time to cater to your dog’s needs—whether that’s plenty of cuddles, neighborhood walks, or longer hikes—and our beagle has a calm, social temperament and has never met a dog he didn’t get along with. He even helps new dogs settle in at daycare thanks to his gentle nature. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and energy levels and tailor walks and activity to each dog’s needs (short, slow strolls or more active outings). Safe, attentive care and lots of affection are guaranteed—happy to discuss routines, feeding, and any special needs your dog has. I’m currently not employed so my days are flexible. Any doggos that come to the house will be joined by our friendly beagle. Walks are completely up to your discretion. I will do whatever is easiest and the most safe for your pets. We have a crate in our house that can be used if needed. We also have a yard that is not fenced in.

My current schedule gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, dependable care throughout the week. I am able to accomodate last-minute bookings, daytime visits, and consistent care routines, even on holidays! I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn pet's routines, personality, and needs as well as give them lots of affection when families are away. I also send regular updates and photos so pet parents can know their pets are safe and happy.

Juliette is everything we needed - friendly, responsive, on time, caring to our fur baby, and communicative. She also took some of the best pictures of Chessie we've ever seen! It was fun to see the pics every day. We had peace of mind when we were away and are looking forward to having her cat sit again.

About: As a former teacher & current attorney, I love research, learning & value being prepared. I'll take the same approach when caring for your pet. I am attentive and responsive. I have researched how to care for dogs and behaviors that should raise concerns, and I acknowledge that every dog is different, so a custom approach to care is required. I am eager to meet you and learn about your care routine and expectations so I can make sure your pet feels like you never left. I am a full-time attorney and landlord, so I do not have any pets, but I love and miss spending time with them which is why this role is perfect. I no longer live with a pet, but in my prior apartment, my roommate had a kitten, so we worked together to train and take care of him. It required a lot of patience. Care included feeding him, providing water, monitoring the litter box, researching and implementing effective ways to deter unwanted behaviors, making the house cat-friendly.

About: (PLEASE review my photos and read through my profile to ensure I’m a good fit for your dog, we want to keep everyone safe!) I offer boarding and daycare with pick-up and drop-off services Monday through Friday. With over 15 years of experience working with dogs, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs. I started by helping family and friends, then volunteered at a local shelter, and today, I work full-time as a dog walker and sitter — and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I’m committed to going above and beyond to meet each dog’s individual needs, no matter how big or small. I want every dog in my care to live their best life! I know how important it is to maintain a dog’s routine and to never cut corners, especially when working on behavioral issues. I look forward to meeting your dog and supporting them on their journey! Safety and Fun Are My Priorities Over the years, I’ve learned a few key things that help keep the environment safe and fun for everyone: • I require a meet-and-greet before any boarding stay, which includes a day of daycare. This allows me to see if your dog is a good fit, gives them a chance to meet the other dogs, and helps them feel comfortable and familiar before their stay. • At mealtime, I feed all dogs individually to avoid food aggression and to ensure each dog stays on their specific diet. • For dogs requiring medication, I administer it privately and carefully, to ensure it’s properly taken and to prevent any accidental exposure to other dogs. • I do not allow toys, bones, or personal beds from home during a stay. This helps prevent any territorial behavior or conflicts. Rest assured, I have plenty of comfortable bedding, engaging toys, and safe chews to keep your pup happy and entertained while they’re here! I can’t wait to welcome your dog into my pack and help them thrive! Daily Schedule: • 6:30 a.m.: Wake-up/morning bathroom break • 8:00a.m -9:00a.m.: Breakfast •. 9:00 a.m.-Morning daycare pick-ups (Monday–Friday) • 10:30a.m. – 12:00 p.m.: Playtime in the yard, with breaks as needed • 12:00 p.m.: Lunch • 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.: Quiet time/rest • 2:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.: Afternoon playtime in the yard, with breaks as needed • 4:30 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.: Afternoon daycare drop-offs (Monday–Friday) • 6:00 p.m.: Evening bathroom break • 6:15 p.m.: Dinner • 7:15 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.: Evening play session • 8:00 p.m.: Relaxation and quiet time • 9:30–10:00 p.m.: Final bathroom break and bedtime I have three separate fenced-in yards to keep things fun and engaging for the dogs, giving them plenty of space to run, play, and explore. There are multiple crates available for individual feeding or for dogs who might be a little too curious and like to explore things they shouldn’t. I also have my yard treated for ticks and mosquitoes every month to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone. And that’s just the beginning! I provide a wide variety of toys and enrichment activities to keep the dogs mentally and physically stimulated. We do sensory games, have food puzzles to challenge their minds, and even offer quiet, cozy spots for rest and relaxation. Whether your dog loves to play, learn, or just lounge in the sun, there’s something here for everyone to enjoy!

About: I believe each dog is a gift, and will come with their own specific needs. I can adapt to fulfill those needs, and do it with extra care and love. I am a homemaker and wife, with my own two furbabies. There’s Zoey, our senior Pug and Dozer, her son, a Bugg. Other than making sure they are taken care of, my availability is wide open and flexible. I am ever vigilant over my dogs and would do the same for yours. We have a nice fenced in back yard, routinely cleared of poop. We actually use fragrance free baby butt wipes after each poop, to eliminate any accidental markings on furniture. If you’d like this service, just ask. Also, I keep their water and food bowls clean and full. And always have plenty of toys(all different kinds-soft, hard, chewy, squeaky, etc) to keep distracted. We also have several nice plush/soft beds for down time. I also have experience potty training multiple pups, and feel confident to offer that service. I am also very familiar with the needs of senior dogs and can adapt to fulfill their needs. My job is to make your pup have their best day!

About: I have a B.S. in Animal Sciences from the University of Florida and several years of hands-on experience caring for animals. My background includes working as an overnight attendant at a dog daycare, where I monitored groups of dogs, provided feeding and medication administration, cleaned kennels, and ensured pets were safe and comfortable. I have also volunteered in veterinary and animal care settings, gaining experience with animal handling, restraint, health monitoring, and recognizing signs of illness or stress. I am comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior pets and those requiring medications. I have taken courses and gotten certified on dog and cat CPR and first aid. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care so pet owners can have peace of mind while they are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have experience caring for animals both professionally and personally, so feeding, walking, exercising, administering medications, and monitoring behavior are already a regular part of my day. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide consistent attention, exercise, and companionship while ensuring their individual needs and routines are maintained I have a lot of experience with dogs, including walking, exercising, crating, feeding, trimming nails, some grooming, bathing, giving medicine, and more. I am responsible and will make sure I follow all instructions and double check before I leave your home!

We reach out to Adriana first whenever we need intermittent/drop in visits for our sweet 15 year old dog. She's used to us home with her most of the time, and when we need to leave her for longer than she's used to, Adriana gives us great peace of mind by dropping in. She's always terrific with communication and dependability. Thoroughly recommend!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Abington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Abington on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 9,651 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Abington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Abington stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Abington choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Abington with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Abington. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
