“Rebecca is the best! She knew we were worried about leaving our dog and sent pictures the entire time we were away. She genuinely cares about the pets she watches over. Duke was calm, happy and well cared for, even with a thunderstorm and a power outage. Would definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
“Sarah stayed with our dog Molly for 2 days and nights. She did an awesome job! We could see from all the pictures and updates that Molly was well cared for. Would highly recommend Sarah!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for most of life. Whether it was family dogs or friends dogs I have been trusted to walk, feed, and entertain many dogs. I am currently a full time student and will be continuing classes this fall. I am available during the week and the weekends to walk and watch dogs. I care for pets with love and respect. I can crate if that is an option or entertain and hang out with if needed or wanted.
“We'd definitely book with Kayla again. Super responsive, sends updates/pics, clearly great with animals. We can tell our cat liked her. Gave us peace of mind while we were traveling.”
“Beverly was awesome. This was the first time we were away from our 150lb mastiff puppy and we were worried about him. Bev made us very comfortable during the meet and greet and communicated with us up until the the sit started to ensure she had all the details and care instructions. On the day of the sit she showed up right on time and settled in before we had to leave, so the puppies would get used to her being in the house. During the next few days she took wonderful care of our furbabies. She played with them and cuddled with them when they were moping and was persistent about trying to get them to eat. Pretty soon they were following her around everywhere. She sent us a lot of pictures of them and the house was immaculately clean when we got back. We would love for her to care for our babies again in the future.”
“Marissa was wonderful. I was lucky enough to get her on very short notice to do in-house overnight visits with my cat. Marissa was professional, communicative, and generally gave me great peace of mind while I was away I will definitely be rebooking the next time I’m going out of town!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and Guinea pigs for the past 9 years. Makes sure my neighbors dog when out of town is fed, walked, bathed, and clothed. Currently working part time in social media management, so I’m home with more than enough time to cater towards fur babies! I’m available Monday through Saturday of every week. I live in a dog friendly neighborhood that even supplies bags for dogs. There’s more than enough room in my apartment for zoomies, crates, And most furniture that they are allowed on!
“Ethan is amazing! Hands down best person that could’ve watched Joey! He did everything possible to make sure i was comfortable throughout the day and made sure Joey had the best time under his care. He ran with Joey when he wanted to sprint, allowed him time to play outside and sniff around, made sure he ate, etc. I couldn’t be happier.”
About: I'm an experienced dog-walker, sitter, and owner. I adore dogs (sometimes more than humans!). I take extra care with each dog I have the privilege of being with - whether it be a walk, an outing, or a cuddle. Dogs need love, attention, and understanding just like us and I make sure to provide that as much as I can. I am also a volunteer at the animal shelter and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I'm very flexible! Around weekdays and can be free on weekends if needed. I'm willing to work with your schedule! My job and life allow me to be open. I respect your space and needs and follow your lead on how best to care for your pup. I currently am not taking dogs in my home.
About: I’ve always had multiple pets my whole life from a young age, learned responsibilities by feeding, grooming, walking, entertaining, training and medically providing for all my pets and any animal in my care. I have experience working in multiple vet clinics throughout my childhood as I was a pre-vet major up until junior year of college so I have a lot of experience with all kinds of animals and medical knowledge as well. I now have my own dog, Appa, who is 2 that I raised from a puppy and am currently self training. I am currently a phd grad student at vanderbilt university so I have morning classes and lab work, but I live right down the road from campus (less than 5 min drive) and I always come home immediately after my classes/work to be home with Appa. Pet care fits into my daily schedule as I spend as much time as i can working from home so I can be with my dog. I have a 1 bedroom apartment and i live with my 2 year old fur baby named Appa! I have an apt with room for some zoomies and room to play with toys, I have a balcony if they like being outside and my buidling also has a small dog park on the roof with 2 fenced circular yards lined with turf so they can run around at a mini park as much as they want!
About: I have been raised around dogs my entire life and have over 11 years of hands-on dog care experience. To me, dogs aren’t just animals but can be family, loyal friends…the closest companions in our lives. I treat every guest pup with the exact same love, respect, and careful attention I give my own I work a flexible 9-5 job where there can be a day or two for me to work remotely. I’m open to boarding those days and the weekends too! I have two dogs in my loft currently. One senior 14-year old morkie and a 3-year old English pointer. Both are trained and don’t bother others. If crates are needed, I have one.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for almost two years now I’m very careful and safe when haloing out animals I ensure their lives are okay and safe before mine is Very open availability I can do overnights ,pop bye visits and walking whenever throughout the day currently workrong but not for much longer so timing will change We have a fenced in backyard for our dog we have gates inside the house to block off hazardous areas to our dog Gracie girl
About: I grew up in farm and ranch country caring for horses, cows, goats, cats and lots of dogs, so animal care has been part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. Dogs are my favorite. I'm experienced with big, high-energy breeds like Bernese Mountain Dogs and German Shepherds, and I'm just as comfortable with small dogs. I have three of my own: Willie (a Dachshund), Shelby (an Australian Shepherd) and Reba (a Cavapoo). I love the outdoors, so your dog gets real exercise, like morning hikes at Nockamixon, Ralph Stover and the Delaware Canal towpath. You'll get photo and video updates every day. My work schedule varies week to week, but I always plan pet care around it. Your dog gets a long morning walk or hike before I leave, and my mom is often home during the day for potty breaks and company. Evenings are for walks, play and couch time with the pack. I usually have a couple of full days off each week to spend with the dogs, and I’m happy to work around your schedule for drop-offs and pickups. When boarding, your dog stays in my home on just over two acres in quiet, rural Ottsville. The property isn’t fenced, so guest dogs are always on leash or a long line outside, with plenty of room to sniff and explore safely. My three dogs are friendly and social, and every stay starts with a meet-and-greet so I can make sure everyone gets along. For house sitting and drop-ins, I keep your pet’s feeding, walking and medication routine exactly the same and treat your home with respect. Every dog gets its own cozy space to rest, and I can crate if your dog is crate-trained.
“Hannah did a great job not only managing our 2 100+ lb Ridgebacks, but she took immaculate care of our home as well! We will definitely ask her to sit for us again. Highly recommended!”
“We had such a great experience! Rosie watched our dog for four days and was wonderful with her. She was very responsible and communicated with us throughout the day, sending photos and videos that gave us peace of mind. She made sure our dog was fed, walked, played with, and even gave her medication as needed. It was clear that she genuinely cared about her and made sure she was comfortable and well taken care of. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in good hands and would absolutely recommend her and book her again!”
About: I am a woman of faith. I was raised around pets and have several years of experience pet sitting. I currently dogsit for clients, friends, and family. I've cared for dogs with disabilities and special medication requirements. I am particular about the clients I accept. If you’re a multi-dog owner, please note I will accept clients with 1 or 2 dogs. I require an initial phone consultation and in-person meet and greet prior to booking to ensure we are a good fit. My clients understand I work full-time in Warminster and am happy to accommodate their needs outside of my work hours. I only dogsit in my clients' homes and required reasonable sleeping accommodations for the duration of my stay. Contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to speaking with you. Have a blessed day! I work a full-time job in Central Bucks County 9 AM-5:30 PM. Outside of these hours, I am happy to accommodate your pet and home care needs. I am permitted a 30-minute lunch that can be utilized for a midday visit if you are local. When I sit overnight, I stay in my clients' home to accommodate their pets' schedule. I require a place to sleep and shower. When I stay in a client's home, I treat it respectfully as if it were my own home. I am happy to accommodate any additional housekeeping requests, within reason.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,650 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Baptistown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Baptistown walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Baptistown maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Baptistown 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!
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
