About: Aren’t animals the greatest gift? I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10. Now a professional dog-walker and pet sitter, I’m seeking to expand my business through Rover. I love and highly vibe with all animals. I’m a yoga instructor looking to further supplement my income caring for man’s best friend via Rover. I’m experienced with puppies and also elderly animals. I have 2 cats of my own. I’d love nothing more than to meet your fur-baby, and become his/her friend. I’m available for dog walks, visits, and also overnights in your living space. It’s nice to know your pet is in their own space with a trusted individual while you are gone. I’m the person to give you that peace of mind. Help me help you love your pet. I am only available in certain areas at certain times for walks and visits, due to my teaching schedule. Please feel free to reach out to ask any questions. I look forward to talking with you and meeting your fur family.
“It seems like our puppy had a great time with Mr. Fernandez. He sent us pictures and gave us updates in our puppy during his stay. He was very accommodating and was available on short notice. He will now be our permanent doggy sitter.”
“1,000% recomend Sam! This was my first time using this app. So I was a little apprehensive. I was leaving for a week and needed someone to watch my three cats.. my fur babies. As soon as I met Sam, I knew I chose the right person. She was warm great personality, big smile! I went away for a week, and Sam was on point checked in with pictures and updates every visit. By the third visit, my cats had warmed up to her and allowed her to pet them which warmed my heart! I felt so happy that I found a pet care giver, who could make my pets, feel safe, warm, and loved! thank you so much, Sam! I’ll be using you real soon again! 😀🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛”
“Jamie took great care of my Puppy on her visit. It is clear that she loves animals and she went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable, happy and well cared for.”
About: I’ve been a cat owner since I was 8 and proudly own 2 orange senior boys. I love animals, and frequently pet sit for neighbors and family friends. I do my best to stay educated on the most beneficial practices and products for pet care, and will always put a pet’s wellbeing first. I currently work as an amusement park performer, so if your pet would like to see any songs or dances, I’ve got you! I primarily work Friday-Saturday and weekday evenings, so I almost always have my mornings and afternoons available! My work hours change weekly, so I’m always happy to make an extra stop to check in on a pet, if my schedule allows! I always keep things neat and tidy, so I’ll thoroughly clean food and water bowls, pick up any poop, and scoop litter during all of my visits. I’m very thorough when making sure everything is taken care of, and I’ll even leave an extra treat or two to make sure your pet feels special! I absolutely love spending time with animals, so if your pet needs some playtime, I’m always happy to provide that as well. Whether I’m walking your dog or sitting for your pet(s), I’ll make sure they’re well-cared for, clean, and happy before I leave.
About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a dependable and caring pet lover with experience caring for animals of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs, whether that means active playtime, walks, or a calm and relaxed environment. I have a clean, quiet, non-smoking home with a fully fenced-in yard and no other pets, so your pet will have a safe, comfortable space and my full attention. I’m attentive, responsible, and stick closely to routines to help your pet feel at ease. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I’d love to care for your furry companion. I work from home part-time, which means I’m home most of the day and able to provide consistent attention, supervision, and care for your pet. I have a very flexible schedule and don’t spend much time away, so your pet won’t be left alone. Honestly, I’m pretty much a homebody, so your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and a calm environment throughout the day. Because I work from home, I’m able to keep a close eye on things, stick to routines, and make sure your pet is always comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, quiet, non-smoking home with a fully fenced-in yard and no other pets, creating a calm and secure environment.

“Kate was awesome! She provided Drop-in visits for my dog Bella. Bella is very timid and usually takes a bit to adapt to a stranger. But Bella loved Kate the moment she saw her. This was my first time using Rover and Kate made it a great experience.”
About: I've grown up with dogs when I lived with my mom. When I moved out, my fiancé and I adopted our very own dog, JD. A year later, we rescued our Coco, and have had so much fun watching our pups grow together and giving them the best life as possible. My brother and sister each have their own dogs who I love just as much as my own and will always care for them and play for them. I have neighbors and family friends who have relied on me to either house sit while they are away or visit a few times a day to walk and feed their pets. My favorite thing is puppy snuggles! I would love to care for your animals when you are away and make their time away from you the best it can be for them. :) I am an elementary teacher. During the summers, I spend my time tutoring or working a summer school program which typically ends by 1pm at the latest. I am an early bird as well, so I am able to get in a quick walk with your pet prior to my work day starting, and am free in the afternoons during the summer to play with your dog! As a pet caretaker, I will do whatever is needed so as to not break your dogs structure and routines. I am flexible and only want what is best for your dog and family!
“Chris was wonderful with my cat Fenrys - he sent great updates daily, and went about making friends at Fenrys’s pace. I felt so secure leaving him in Chris’s care!”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have spent my life caring for them, including fostering in the past. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for family, friends, and neighbors, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, punctual, and committed to giving each dog the attention and exercise they need. I enjoy being outdoors and going on walks, so your dog will get plenty of activity and care. From playtime to cuddles, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m starting a sonography program this summer, so I’m looking to pick up some extra work in the meantime! I’m currently available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and I’m happy to be flexible within that schedule to meet pets’ needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, prioritizing safety, comfort, and routine. I ensure the environment is clean, calm, and pet-proofed, and I closely follow each pet’s normal feeding, walking, and play routines. I pay attention to individual needs and any special instructions, and of course provide plenty of love and attention, along with updates so owners feel informed and confident while they’re away.
About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds including not just cats and dogs, I currently care for 2 cats and 2 dogs and love them all. I volunteered at an animal shelter for multiple years and want to continue animal based experiences! I work currently part time but often have my weekends free and enjoy a good walk after getting off of my job, I do part time teacher work so the mental refresh is helpful I believe in utmost safety priority, including surveying surroundings constantly for threats, adjusting to it situationally and avoiding drawing attention to it incase it excites the animal.
“Jahari helped us out last minute when we needed someone with an extra skillset to check in on our girl. We highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter and in particular anyone needing the extra layer of assurance a vet tech can provide. He is super kind and accommodating and we are glad to have found him!”
About: I used to have a dog - he passed away this past year but he was a big golden retriever! I would love to get back in dog care and take care of your animal ! I am pretty easy going and fun - I love dogs - DM if you want more info. In terms of walking I love walking dogs and take them on excursions and adventures in parks and nature centers, dog shoppes and so much more. Just let me know your dogs triggers and behaviors on walks I’m pretty free during weekends but am also flexible during weekdays - currently I am waiting on starting work but it will be part time so if I am out of the house I will coordinate with you when I can sit I don’t have a fence but a big yard and a big house they can sleep wherever they feel comfortable and get lots of hugs and kissses
About: I am a lifelong animal lover providing dependable, attentive care. I treat every pet like family while respecting their unique routines, personalities, and comfort needs. As a licensed esthetician, I’m naturally patient, detail-oriented and committed to creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment. I understand how important routines are, so I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs and personality. I have experience caring for my own cats, as well as pet sitting for family and friends’ dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication, overnight care, potty breaks, and litter box cleaning. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work 3–4 days a week as a licensed esthetician at Glowbar in Rittenhouse, with shifts typically starting around 2:30 PM, though my schedule can vary slightly week to week. Because of this, I have consistent availability in the mornings, earlier afternoons and on my days off to dedicate to pet care services like walks and drop-ins when needed. I’m very organized and intentional about managing my time, so I’m able to plan my pet care bookings around my work schedule to ensure each pet gets my full attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owner is away. I take the time to follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, litter box care, playtime, and any specific preferences the pet may have. I approach each visit with patience, calm energy, and attention to detail. I understand that pets can be sensitive to change, so I move at their pace and focus on building trust so they feel secure with me. I also treat my clients’ homes with the same respect I would my own. I keep everything clean and organized, make sure doors are secured, and always leave the space as I found it. I’m very mindful of safety, including checking water bowls, ensuring pets are comfortable before leaving, and giving updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is always to make both the pet and the owner feel completely at ease and genuinely cared for.
“Abby is fantastic!! She took amazing care of my pup! She gave me updates and has great communication. Abby understands small breeds and is very patient, my chihuahua warmed up to her fast during her visits. I highly recommend her!”

Amber was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! She was caring, responsible, attentive, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She was very dependable and made sure they were well cared for while I was away. I truly appreciated the attention and care she gave them and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I would absolutely use her again! Thanks so much Amber

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.
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 Bensalem 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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
