About: I have cared for family and friends pets since I was 14 years old. Combined with my love for animals and attention to detail, my skill set has helped to create a special experience for each pets needs. From energetic dogs needing more patience and structure to senior pets who need a little more tend love and care! I am currently working full-time, 7am-2:30pm (M-F). However, on weekends and afternoons I am free to devote my time to caring for your pets. I don't work summers which allows me the flexibility to provide the best care needed to each of your fur pups. When caring for my own and other pets safety and trust is a top priority. Each pet is different however I still make it my business to make sure pets and parents of pets feel comfortable by catering to their specific needs in and out of my home. In my own home, I make sure the environment is free from anything that can be toxic to animals such as exposed wire, toxic plants, or foods. I maintain consistency with pet schedules to ensure each animal feels comfortable. I have a large backyard that is partially fenced in so pets can get regular exercise. I also have one mini poodle that goes by Karter, if it meets the pets needs Karter is great company to keep to promote interaction and stimulation throughout the day.
About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was 7 years old, so caring for pets has always been a big part of who I am! I’m 23 now and have plenty of experience taking care of animals independently, from meeting their daily needs to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I have trained puppies and taken care of kittens, and I've also taken care of elderly cats and dogs. As an occupational therapy student, I’ve developed strong empathy, patience, and an understanding that everyone has different needs and personalities. I bring that same approach to animals by paying attention to their individual needs, respecting their routines, and helping them feel at ease. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! As an occupational therapy student working toward my doctorate, I have a busy but flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care. I am available after classes and on my days off, which gives me opportunities to provide pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I am organized and responsible when balancing my schoolwork with other commitments, and I can work with pet owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I look forward to making pet sitting a rewarding part of my routine while providing reliable, loving care for your pets! When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I will follow all instructions regarding feeding, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any other specific needs. I also make sure to give each pet plenty of attention, affection, and patience while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I prioritize their well being and make sure owners feel confident that their pets are in loving, responsible hands. I am also happy to provide updates and photos so you can see how your furry family member is doing.
“Michelle kept me updated and sent lots of photos and videos. She cleaned my cat’s litter box, refilled her water, groomed her, and made sure to play with her. My cat got really comfortable with her which made me feel at ease.”
“Kimberly is so good with our lil guy and we are so grateful to have found her! She always gives him so much love and attention and makes us feel so much better about having to leave him at home!”
About: Just moved into a bigger space for more dogs to roam and lounge around. If you're looking for a place where your pup can stay while you're working, we can definitely do daycare! If you're looking to go on vacation and rather have your pup stay with a family of dog lovers instead of a kennel in a cage, my kids would certainly love to play with your pup in our backyard! I'm also walking distance to a park where Rush and I go to run, your pup can join us too! I can also head your way to walk and feed your pup too. My main goal is for your pup to feel as comfy as possible while you're away, whether its for 15 minutes, a couple hours, days, or even weeks! I work from home, my wife and I work with pets together to make sure they're always around with someone in our home. We also make sure to follow each dogs daily routine and diet. I have a fenced yard that was installed in my home 2 years ago. We are always monitoring the dogs outside with them, each dog is different in their behavior so we try to play with them or give them their space. When inside our home we only let them roam in our kitchen and living room space, unless they need to be crated.
“Yuliia is the best! Our dogs love her after only two visits. When we say auntie Julia now, they run to the door wagging thinking she is already there. She is very commubicarive and thoughtful”

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.
“Everything seems to have gone great! She is on time and takes him for a walk each time and gives him love when I am not there. I love the pics I get each time.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 10+ years . I treat all dogs like they are my own and make sure all their needs are taken care of. My weekends and nights are wide open to able to take care of your pup. I walk daily and love having a companion with me. I treat my own dogs as family and will treat other pets the same. Also follow owners instructions that pertain to a specific animal's needs.
“We highly recommend Mary Rose. We have a senior cat with hyperthyroidism, inflammatory bowel disorder, and asthma, so getting his medication right is extremely important. She handled his care with no problems at all and followed his medical routine with confidence and precision. Our cat is also quite shy with new people, but she was able to build a connection with him. We received plenty of photos showing him enjoying petting and grooming time, which was very reassuring while we were away. She also provided detailed daily reports that truly put our minds at ease. It is clear she has both a deep love for animals and strong knowledge of their care. We would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter.”
“Thanks Brandon for not only meeting the day before to get acquainted but also the actual day visit. Nice to know that you’re not far away and will be able to watch them again!”
“Joshua is the best! This is the second time he has watched our dogs while we were away. He took great care of our 2 dogs while we were on vacation for the week. He made sure they were fed and had lots of time to run and play outside. He gave us updates on how our pups were doing along with lots of pictures! It was nice to be able to relax on vacation knowing that our pups were being well cared for. We already booked Joshua again for our next vacation!”

Christina was amazing. Super quick response to my inquiry. She arranged a meet and greet and I immediately knew Buddy was going to be in good hands. Christina was professional, intelligent and really listened when I explained Buddy’s quirks and preferences. Her communication skills are excellent. I loved the pictures and report card. The whole experience was A++++++. I highly recommend Christina and hope to use her again soon.
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
Michelle was wonderful! She took great care of my two cats and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the visit. I really appreciated her patience — one of my cats loves trying to sneak to the door, and she made sure he stayed safely inside before leaving. Overall, a really positive experience. I’d be very happy to have her help again. Highly recommend! 🙏🐱✨

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Bensalem is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $31 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 9,177 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bensalem. 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.

- 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.
