Emma was absolutely fabulous. So attentive to our elderly dog's needs and extremely communicative. She is such a gem - we feel so fortunate to have had her watching over our favorite furball while we were away!

About: I am a young energetic father of 2 dogs myself currently - A male border collie and a male German Shepherd. Both dogs are very friendly. They love other dogs and love to go to the park to play when I go for my walks in the parkway. I am an animal lover and a sucker for puppy eyes. I am available through out the week at any time and have been raising dogs my entire life. I also have experience with technical training of dogs. If you want your dog to be spoiled while you are a way I am the person! Belly rubs, fetch, and walks are built into my daily routine. I currently am a full time student so I have full availability during the summer time and have revile transportation to get to and from locations as needed. I live in a quiet area that is away from busy streets and am able to leash walk your dog around the neighborhood as well as take them to the parkway down the road. I am also able to pet sit at your home if it is easier on your fur baby to avoid any distress and will make sure to follow any scheduled routine for your dog.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats since I was 16 & before then we have always had pets in my family. I love & cherish animals & make sure they get what they need. I am currently working part time so I have a lot of free time to play/walk/feed any animals as needed. I am pretty much free any time as long as I have a days notice I care for my pets at home like they are my children. Make sure they get all the attention they want when they ask for it & make it easier on my older dogs. I’ve just built a ramp for my girlfriends dog to get in & out of bed easier & make sure she eats at a routine that she is used to with her meds included

About: I have lived my whole life with dogs! Every variety of bread big and small, from St. Bernard to Chihuahua. I am comfortable with all types of energy levels and needs as I regularly exercise and run myself. So if you need a dog walker to wear your pup out I am here to help! Additionally, I am open to chauffering your pet to appointments as well! Working 6.5 hours a day with a 5 minute commute allows me to devote the majority of my evenings to playing with and training my dog. On the weekends we go on an adventure hiking and swimming. Taking care of myself goes hand in hand with taking care of my dog. Daily long walks, trips to the dog park or creek for swimming, and 1 on 1 playtime. I do training sessions everyday to develop and maintain skills even if only for 5 minutes. I bathe and clip nails personally.

About: I have a background in dogs and horses having had dogs my whole life and horses indoor over half my life. I have worked with special needs dogs as well, providing medications and medical intervention. I also can provide light aid in training, as I have experience in training my personal dog. I try to provide messages and pictures once per day as well! I’m currently receiving my doctorate degree and spending the next 5 months in Pennsylvania finishing school and have a bit more flexibility throughout my weeks. I love animals with my own personal dog Ruby who stays with me as well as horses back in my home state!! I hope to be able to accommodate you and your pet into my schedule to provide the best care. I strive to respect the client’s privacy and space by not disturbing any areas in which the animals do not inhabit. I often spend a bit of time with the animals, primarily outdoors for dogs as to allow them to get more energy and stimulation.

About: I have loved and taken care of dogs all my life. I’ve had dogs from puppies to seniors and understand how to care to all their needs. Along with that I take the time to really get to know each dog on their own and establish a connection so that each party is happy. I currently work a full time job. However I work from home so that allows me to be flexible with my time and always there to attend to the dogs. I have a fenced in yard and a dog of my own to give your fur baby’s company. The dogs can free roam around the house but I’ll always make sure I can see them. If preferred to be caged that is also possible.

About: I’ve had small dogs my whole life and am a lifelong animal lover. I also have experience caring for mice, guinea pigs, bunnies, and cats. For the past 8 months, I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter, working with dogs and cats of all personalities, and handling tasks like cleaning litter boxes, cages, and more. "I’m currently focused on volunteering at the shelter, so my schedule is very flexible. I have plenty of time to help out whenever and wherever I’m needed. I can currently only accept cats who are friendly with other cats, as I have two of my own. I’m also able to take in guinea pigs, with extra cages already set up.

About: I have been a dedicated dog dad for over 4 years. While I have experience managing a multiple dog household, I currently only have my resident German Shepherd at home during sittings. He is a "big baby" super friendly, well-socialized, and great at making guest dogs feel welcome. I live to make these 4 legged animals smile, you can be sure your pup will have a good time when I’m around! As a dedicated dog owner for over four years, I offer a safe and structured 'home away from home' for your pup. My household is perfectly set up for socialization, featuring my friendly, 'big baby' German Shepherd who loves making new friends. To ensure a calm and focused environment, my other resident dogs stay off site during bookings, allowing me to prioritize your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s managing high-energy play, providing gentle senior care, or maintaining strict feeding and medication schedules, I provide your dog with a reliable routine filled with backyard fun, mental enrichment, and plenty of cuddles. You can travel with peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for by an experienced handler who treats every guest like family! When a doggo stays with me, they aren't just a "guest" they become apart of the family. My goal is to keep their home routine so they don't feel the stress of your absence.

About: 💕🐶NEW TO ROVER?🐱💕 GET $20 OFF YOUR FIRST BOOKING BY USING PROMO CODE  REBECC18368 Valid for first-time Rover customers only. 💞REFERRALS💞 For each new referral who schedules services with me, you will receive one FREE walk/drop-in visit for your pet(s) OR 20% off your next pet-sitting booking request as a thank you! === 🐕🏃‍♀️💨💨 I can provide aerobic running/walking sessions to high-energy dogs, as well as offer drop-in visits and overnight pet-sitting services for furred friends of all breeds, sizes, ages and deportments. All visits may be customized to you and your pet(s)’ needs (so long as within time-frame of visit)! Visits include refreshing of water bowls, feeding/medication administration (if needed), walks/runs, cleaning up of indoor messes they may make, and, of course, LOTS of cuddling and TLC for your fur baby(ies) throughout the visit (aka kisses, scratches, hugs and rubs!). I can also carry out quick extra tasks such as bringing in your mail, turning off/on lights, adjusting your thermostat, watering your plants, taking out the trash and/or returning your emptied receptacles back where they belong for you. The pace and intensity of my walks with your pup(s) are always tuned to your individual dog’s needs and desires. They range from laid-back, leisurely strolls (usually enjoyed by recovering and/or older dogs) to intensive running sessions (loved by younger and high-energy dogs)! === 💛🐶 During the pandemic of 2020, I also had the privilege of transporting and fostering an unwanted rescued pitbull from NYC into my PA home for what was supposed to be for just a couple of weeks. However, he ended up staying with me in my home for the next few years until he passed away peacefully. During his time here, he transformed from being sickly, lethargic, anxious and anti-social (who was deathly afraid of being in water) to a robust, energetic, loving and outgoing dog whom you couldn't get out of any body of water as hard as you tried (rivers, lakes, etc)! The change was truly miraculous and heart-warming to the core to see! === After each walk/visit, you will receive a text message from me with photos/videos letting you know how my time with them went! Included in this message will be a confirmation of completion of any extra tasks/special requests made by you for me to carry out. As a passionate animal lover myself, you can rest assure that they will be in the most loving, caring and attentive of hands and heart! I look forward to beginning a wonderful and healthy relationship with you and your pet(s)! === 🐕🏃‍♀️DOG WALKING & DROP-IN VISITS $25 per visit For one 30-minute visit per week (For up to 2 pets) $20 per visit For two or more 30-minute visits per week (For up to 2 pets) $35 per visit For one 60-minute visit per week (For up to 2 pets) $30 per visit For two or more 60-minute visits per week (For up to 2 pets) $5 per additional dog $1 per additional cat $5 weekend fee per visit $5 holiday fee per visit 2+ Hour Visits (Upon Special Request): $5 per additional hour ■•■•■ 🏡24-HOUR CARE (UP TO 24 HOURS - WITH OVERNIGHT STAY INCLUDED) Your home will be my home base for up to a 24-hour period (with an overnight stay included within those 24 hours). I will leave to go do any walks/drop-ins I have scheduled, but the rest of my time will be devoted to the safe-keeping and care of your home and pet(s). I will be away no more than 4-6 hours at a time maximum if needed (unless otherwise specified by you). The quality care of your pets will continue to be my top priority and NEVER be compromised. I may also use my pet-friendly home (complete with a fenced-in grassy yard and doggy door access) as a home base (in addition to yours) if that works well for your pet. During transportation, your pet will always be safely secured in my vehicle with a safety seatbelt harness. ADVANTAGES OF HOUSE SITTING House sitting (a.k.a. pet sitting) works very well for pets who tend to be nervous, anxious and/or destructive when left alone and away from their owners for longer periods of time than what they are normally accustomed to. This is also a wonderful solution for pets who tend to need more frequent supervision, special care and attention due to their age, those who recently have been introduced into your home and/or those with a compromised or recovering health condition. Your fur baby will feel wonderfully loved and cared for while waiting for you to return to him or her. As for your pup(s), when we are not at home, we are either going out for a walk/run in the neighborhood, meeting up with other friendly pooches needing to be visited and taken out for their walks, or out on a fun adventure and walk/run/hike/splash at any of the various wonderful, wooded, trail-laden parks in this beautiful region of PA! With personal pet-sitting, your beloved pet will receive more one-on-one time, care, loving attention – and freedom – than if it were placed in a crowded pet day-care facility or boarding kennel cage, while you receive the peace of mind that your fur baby is receiving the next best thing to you – right in the familiar surroundings of his or her own home! In addition, their risk of contracting illness or infections from other pets in such facilities will be avoided. $80 per day (For up to 2 pets) $40 extended care (Add up to 12 additional hours of care for up to 2 pets, if needed) $20 extended care (Add up to 6 additional hours of care for up to 2 pets, if needed) $10 extended care (Add up to 3 additional hours of care for up to 2 pets, if needed) $5 per additional dog $1 per additional cat $10 weekend fee per day $15 holiday fee per day ■•■•■ 🌜OVERNIGHT STAY ONLY (UP TO 12 HOURS) $50 per night (For one night, for up to 2 pets) $10 extended care (Add up to 6 additional hours of care for up to 2 pets, if needed) $5 extended care (Add up to 3 additional hours of care for up to 2 pets, if needed) $5 per additional dog $1 per additional cat $10 weekend fee per day $15 holiday fee per day 🎉 HOLIDAYS New Year's Day Memorial Day Weekend (Sat-Mon) July 4th Labor Day Weekend (Sat-Mon) Thanksgiving (Thu-Sun) Christmas Eve Christmas New Year's Eve 💛 FRIDAY SUNDOWN TO SATURDAY SUNDOWN I am not open between Friday sundown to Saturday sundown, but if you need someone to come care for your pet(s) and cannot find anyone else to do so and/or it’s a last-minute emergency situation, I will be more than glad to do so if I can. Just give me a call or quick text – no charge, no worries!🙂 In honor of Sabbath hours each week between Friday sundown to Saturday sundown, I do not charge my clients for any drop-in visits/walks or pet-sitting requests booked for these hours. === 🚩BOOKING & CANCELLATION POLICY Upon request, I will be as open and flexible as possible in providing services outside of the above-listed daily/weekly hours (as my schedule permits). All requests are reserved according to availability on a first-come, first-serve basis. In the event of an unexpected/emergency situation, cancellations at least ONE DAY before the scheduled drop-in visits/walks will be accepted without incurring a cancellation fee. You will receive a full refund if you cancel at least ONE DAY before your booking begins. For overnight house-sitting services, you will receive a full refund if you cancel by noon one week before the stay starts. After that, you will receive a 50% refund on the first 7 cancelled days and 100% refund on any days after that. Same-day service requests are accepted (according to availability) without any additional convenience fees. Please try to keep to a minimum and reserve for last-minute/emergency situations only. Thank you! === 🌿SAFETY & PEACE OF MIND🌿 🛡 Safety adherence by strictly following clients'/vets' instructions and protocols in place is my top priority at all times, unless otherwise instructed by client/vet. 🔊 📨 📞 I am extremely reliable and highly responsive to written and verbal/phone communication with my clients and always document everything using highly-detailed notes during my time with your pet(s), including pictures of my time spent with them sent to your phone. 💪No job nor task is too big or small for me when it comes to the consideration, comfort, respect and safety of my clients, their pets and homes. 💛Please do not hesitate to let me know if there are any special requests you would like to include for me to do (turn lights/thermostat/TV on/off, water plants, open/close windows, bring mail/trash in/out, etc.). === 💛I look forward to being a blessing to you and your furred family member(s)!

About: Grew up with big and small animals. I always wanted to work with animals growing up so I’ve raised everything from tadpoles to birds. I’ve watched small and large dogs and cats for family, and love walking and caring for pets. I am a very patient person, and can tolerate even the rowdiest of animals. I have had experience caring for dogs with medical disabilities and special dietary needs. I have no problem taking active dogs on runs or to parks if that is required. Overall, I would just love to take care of pets for those in need. Currently, I work full-time Monday-Friday, 9-5 PM. I am available on most weekends and some weekdays. I would love to communicate with you about you and your pet’s needs throughout the day/weekend option. While I am not able to keep your pets in my home, I am able to come to you. I will follow your pet’s schedule thoroughly, as I know how important that is to keep up the health of your loved ones.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Allentown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Allentown on Rover is $17.76 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 2,501 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Allentown. 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 Allentown 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 Allentown 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 Allentown 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 Allentown. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
