“Brittany was an awesome pet sitter! She took great care of my cat, while I was out of town for the week. She was great at keeping me up-to date on waffles and sent many pictures. I would definitely rebook in the future, as it seemed my cat was comfortable as she came out of her hiding spot many times, which is unusual for her with new people.”
“Kasandra was great! She checked on our cat while we were out of town and it made leaving him so much easier knowing he was in good hands. We will be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of many pets over the years. I’ve stayed in home, done drop by visits, and taken dogs for days out. I also volunteer at a local dog rescue where I’m heavily involved in the adoption process! I’ve handled dogs with all types of medical and behavioral challenges! I’m currently working part time while also volunteering at a local shelter. I am heavily involved as an adoption counselor, so I am equipped to handle all types of dogs! I am looking to become more active and help out pet parents in need of care! I have one very friendly 2 year old female Dogo Argentino who loves to have friends over. I also have an extra crate if needed for your pups!
“Taylor took wonderful care of our elder cat this week. She also watered my plants and brought in my mail. She communicated with me every day.. She washed all the cats dishes and left my kitchen spotless. She’s very responsible and I’ll be booking her again.”
About: We have been married for 37 years and we have always had a dog. Georgie, our Cavapoo,is our fur baby. He’s a spayed 4 year old playful male. We live very close to a dog park where we take him to play often. We have a fenced yard and an acre and a half of green space. My wife and I are retired. We are up till around 11 at night and wake around 8:30. After coffee, we usually play some tennis or lounge by our pool. We take our Cavapoo to the local dog park for outdoor playtime in the evening when the temperature is cooler. We also play indoors through out the day. We sit down to watch tv around 8:00 and Georgie is usually on a lap snoozing. Our home is a non smoking home with CO2/smoke detectors in every room, basement and top floor. Those are all linked so if one goes by off they all go off. The yard is fenced due to a swimming pool. It will be covered in October with a cover that supports my weight. We are in a rural area with deer, squirrels, and various other wildlife. Our children are all adult and we are empty nesters at this point. We are currently not watching our grand sons, though they do drop in to visit.
About: I have helped raise pets with my family for most of my life, taking on more responsibility as I got older. I have helped family members take care of their dogs when they are away, taking them on walks and making sure they are fed on their regular schedule. I make sure that they get enough exercise to be tired out, but not exhausted. My family mostly had cats, and I have learned to interact with them on their terms, following their lead for the toys they want to play with, the treats they like, when they are fed, and how much and when they would like affection. While my availability is limited to after typical work hours on weekdays, due to my regular job, I have almost full availability on Saturday and am available Sunday afternoon. Please note that I cannot use my phone from 7:40 to 3 on weekdays, except from 11:00 - 11:44 and 12:40 - 1:20. I will get back to you as promptly as possible. I make sure that my cat is fed daily, monitoring her feeder and water fountain to make sure they are full and clean. Kitty litter is emptied once per week and scooped about every other day, since she has 2 boxes. The doors are always closed in my house and I would make sure they are closed in my client's house as well. When watching amily dogs, they are never off-leash unless it is in an enclosed area. Occasionally in my house, I have the interior door open, but the screen door closed, so my cat can experience the outside safely. I make sure any string based toys or any choking hazards are up out of the way, so my cat and client's pets can't get tangled up in them.
“Sydney took great care of our kitties while we were away! Our cats can be particular with their people, so it was great to hear the updates and see the photos of our cats and Sydney getting along. They were absolutely well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend.”
About: Ive had dogs since I was growing up with two of my own now. They are like my children. We love when our friends visit and bring their dogs too! I like dogs more than people I work full time in a school district so I would be available for evening walks and/or stop ins (anytime after 3:15pm) with your 4 legged friends. I treat everyone's dogs like family. My own dogs are my kids. I am confident in my ability to watch and care for your sweet babies.
About: Raised with cats and dogs my whole life. I've raised kittens and puppies. I've taken care of senior cats and dogs. I love all kinds! I work full time until 4:30 pm. I am available Sunday to Thursday from 4:30pm to 8pm. With communication I can possibly be more flexible. At this time I do not have a home for pets. I'm looking into other options to expand my business offering for customers. Stay tuned!
“Bayleigh did a great job watching my cats! She provided updates and plenty of photos and pictures each day. She spent time playing with them which I know they appreciated and she did everything I requested during her visit. Would definitely book her again!”
About: I've been a pet owner for 30 plus years, to include cats and dogs. I have also done pet sitting many times for families in and around Camp Hill, PA. I am currently a proud momma of three amazing furry friends: a 14 year old cat, a 9 year old catahoula leopard doggies, and a very energetic 2 1/2 year old mini golden doodle. All of these animals are rescues. I am currently working a job that ends at 3:30 each week day, and am very flexible with my availability of time over the weekends. I am up very early each morning to let my two dogs out in our backyard, which is fenced in. I also administer medication to our cat at that time, along with feeding all of my pets. All of our pets have free range of our house, but our youngest dog can be crated at times when necessary. I also love taking both of our dogs for walks every night.
About: I have had a dog almost my whole life and have taken care of him especially when he got older and couldn’t do stuff oh his own. I will be sure to take great care of your dogs when you are away and I will check in with you so you know how your dog has been. On weekends I have nothing to do so I am able to go to your house and take care of your pet as much as needed. I will make sure to be respectful to you and your furry friend, I will take them on walks, make sure to feed them , and play with them.
About: I am comfortable walking long distances with your dog and caring for multiple cats. I believe in cleanliness and a positive experience for your pets! Current healthcare professional ready to assist others when things get busy, available when needed the most. I believe in cleanliness in the home as well. I have one cat that is fed twice daily, brushed once a day, and litter cleaned each evening. He is a senior cat needing a sensitive diet.
About: I really like to meet animals where they are. If they are high energy and love to play then that is what we will be doing. If they are a lounge on the couch kind of dog then I will lay with them. I currently have one dog and I have been able to teach him many tricks like roll and high five! I also have 3 cats who keep me busy but in a good way! I have dog sat before many times but I am excited to meet new animals on Rover. I work full time on the weekdays from 7:45-4. I would also be able to be at your home for a few minutes during my lunch break depending on the location. I have full availability Friday night - Sunday night I always make sure that I am following their routine and doing things the way that you would do them! I will ask any questions if I have them to make sure I am doing everything right. The animals would never be able to escape as I am very careful with doors and I always wrap leashed around my wrist for a second layer of protection
About: I've taken care of many breeds of dogs from personally owning them or job working at doggy daycare. Also I have experience with cats and rats! I'm a stay at home mom currently and looking to make some money doing something I love! I'm available anytime of day if my kids are allowed to tag along or i wouldn't be available until after 4pm during the week! For overnights unless close to my home I can only due on weekends due to kids I treat pets like they are my own with lots of love and pets! Walks, treats (unless not allowed), playing fetch or tug of war, etc!.
“Aurora, was willing to come the night before and meet our pups. They loved her the minute she got here. She did a 30 min drop in visit while at the rv show. She walked them, gave them water and played with them. This is our 1st time with Rover and with Aurora. Everything was great from start to finish! Aurora did a fantastic job and we couldn't be happier! Pups were happy and very content when we got back.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bowmansdale
Rachel was really great to work with, She was very thoughtful and even though my cats tend to be a little skittish she was able to interact with them very well. She took care of everything exactly as I asked and was always 100% on time for her visits. I really appreciate her time and attentiveness. I would definitely recommend her to others as well as ask for her services again for our next trip.
Katelyn was wonderful with our puppy during two drop ins! She sent us pictures and kept us informed and updated on our dog! She even was nice enough to clean up an accident he had! She was very easy to work with and communicate with! Thank you Katelyn and we will be having you watch our puppy again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Bowmansdale is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $17 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 1,570 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bowmansdale. 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 Bowmansdale. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
