“Brittany was super reliable! She visited my sweet H twice a day, as we agreed. She made sure he was well taken care of. He was fed, groomed and had great time playing with her. I will definitely call her next time I need cat sitting. Thank you!”
“Mike is really awesome! He took great care of our cats, even the one who is afraid of people, and he also fed our fish! We loved all the pictures and video he sent us while we were away. We will definitely look for Mike next time we need someone to check on our kitties”
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
“Ashley was AMAZING! She followed all of my directions to a tee and left everything spotless. I especially appreciated the detailed updates after each check-in and the adorable photos. Those really helped ease my anxiety about leaving my baby girl. When I got home, Mazzy was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would 100% hire Ashley again. She was the best!”
“Molly was amazing! Went to Jersey shore for 2 weeks and she handled EVERYTHING! Feedings, extra walks, picking up the mail… she was above and beyond. Great at communicating and lots of photos and details. Always on time. So responsible and mature.”
“Danielle is excellent. I am very particular about my cat and how he is treated. I am also very particular about clearing his liter and the space around the liter. My cat was very happy when I returned and my house was as clean as if I did it myself. I would most certainly recommend Danielle and will absolutely use her again!”
About: I’ve had two dogs of my own for over 10 years, so I have plenty of experience taking care of dogs and understanding their needs. I’ve also dog sat for others, including overnight stays. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing and making sure dogs are well taken care of while their owners are away. I’m currently a college student, so I work around my class schedule, but I still have plenty of availability throughout the week. Mondays I’m free before 3 PM and after 6 PM, and Wednesdays I’m available before 2 PM and after 5 PM. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my busiest days, but I’m completely free on Fridays and weekends. I’m happy to work with owners to find times that fit their pets’ needs. I always make sure pets are comfortable and well taken care of while their owners are away. I follow each owner’s instructions when it comes to feeding, walks and daily routines. Having two dogs of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise while keeping their environment clean and safe.
“This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a child. My family taught me to love, respect, and care for them because they are part of the family. I believe that, just like people, dogs need fresh air, exercise, and time outdoors to stay happy and healthy. I currently live in the United States as a nanny, and one of my favorite parts of my day is taking the family’s dog for walks. I love seeing her enjoy the outdoors, explore new places, and get the exercise she needs. For the past three years, starting when I lived in Colombia, my friends have trusted me to care for their pets whenever they traveled or needed someone reliable. I have experience walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I am responsible, patient, and truly passionate about animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I currently work as a nanny, but I have plenty of free time during the day. I’m available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, which gives me plenty of time to provide relaxed walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. I want every walk to be enjoyable and enriching for your dog, not just a quick trip outside. Every dog has a unique personality, so I like to get to know them and follow their pace. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, exploring different parks, and giving them a safe and fun opportunity to enjoy the outdoors because I truly believe regular walks are important for both their physical and emotional well-being. I also love taking photos during our walks and sending updates to pet parents, so you can see how much fun your dog is having and feel connected while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to come home happy, exercised, and excited for our next walk.
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember! I started dog walking at 16 and have been volunteering at local animal shelters since I was 18, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and even reptiles, so I’m comfortable handling different personalities and care needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to treat your pets with the utmost care and ensure they’re happy and safe while you’re away. I work full-time so I offer all services, but for house sitting and house boarding, I can provide potty breaks between 4-8 hours. I always treat your home with the same respect and care as I would my own. While caring for your pets, I make sure their routines stay consistent—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just relaxing together. I’m attentive to details like keeping feeding areas tidy, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring your home stays secure while you’re away.
“Breanna went above and beyond with our 8 week puppy. I look forward to the detailed reports and pictures. She responds quickly to questions. Our family plans on booking her for several months. We know our pup will be in good hands.”
“Ben was simply amazing with Brutus. He went beyond what the asked to make Brutus more comfortable while we were gone. I would recommend Ben to anyone and will use him again.”

I can also provide baths for dogs if need be for the owners.
“Callie came for a meet and greet. My dog was belly up and waggy very quickly. We decided immediately that we found our sitter. She is bubbly and eager and has good attention to detail. I have a few rules.. they were followed explicitly. We have decided to do weekly drop ins leading up to an overnight. Callie has been here and our pup loved her time with her. I can relax knowing she’s in good hands”

About: I grew up in a household that always had at least one pet; everything from turtles, birds, hamsters, to 2 cats and 4 dogs. I've always loved animals and would love to meet your pet too! Since I live in an apartment that doesn't allow for pets, I'm hoping meeting and caring for your pets will bring me the same joy I have when I'm at home! I took care of two elderly dogs for the last two years - one who required full time attention including administering medicine. My schedule is super flexible! I work mostly in the evenings and am free on the weekends. My roommate is also a dog lover and would be more than happy to have a furry friend stay with us. I currently rent a small apartment with a friend, but we are just a few blocks from a dog park! The space is a bit small, but I have had dogs stay with me in the past with no issue!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Allgates
Angelica is so terrific! We especially appreciate how she takes initiative to do things that we haven’t asked her to do, but that makes sense to do, like taking in the compost pails as we intended to ask her but forgot. When it comes to the pets, if she thinks of something we haven’t asked her to do, she runs it by us first! We feel very lucky to have her taken care of our pets.
Mary did a wonderful job checking in on my dog Rocco, who is a high energy dog. She took him out for potty breaks, fed him, gave him fresh water, and spent time playing - burning off energy. She sent the cutest picture which I really appreciated. When I got home, he was calm and happy. Highly recommend!
Helena did a great job taking care of our two cats for a week. She came at the agreed-upon time each day, gave them lots of love, pets, and playtime, and sent us pictures that helped us not miss them quite as much; although that’s hard, of course! We felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Allgates is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 9,666 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Allgates. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Allgates. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
