“Danielle was so caring and attentive to my senior dog's needs. My dog must have liked her because she even went back to say bye before getting in the car to leave which is in contrast to her behavior with other people we have had watch her in the past. I will definitely request Danielle first for future pet care needs.”
“Emily took good care of Lexie. She sent me photos everyday and she was able to take my dog on for walks as well. Will definitely recommend and she will be my point of contact for next sitting.”

About: Hello, To all animal parents. You will have not to worry as your animal will be having a blast while in my care. Wheather it's walks overnight stays in my home or yours or just a check in my love will show no bounds. I will call txt or face time when ever you need so that you are comfortable with being away. Thank you for taking the time considering me as the one who will be taking care of your animals. I have stayed the weekend caring for a medium sized dog as well as two indoor/outdoor cats. I faced timed and texted the animal mom frequently over the weekend so she felt better while away from her children(1 dog 2 cats). Thank you and have a great day! I am currently a stay at home mom so your fur babies will never be alone. I am available for any and all of your animals needs. I have a large back yard and different tie out spots for the dogs to be safe. One friendly large dog and an autistic almost 6 year old daughter starting kindergarten.

About: I have taken care of my own dogs and do my very best to treat them like family. I make sure they eat, have adequate potty time, and recreation time. I will be sure to take care of your pet as if they were with you. I am currently working, but have plenty of time to care for pets. They will have plenty of time 1 on 1 with their needs met. I have a yard and can give your dog access to exercise or take them on walks at parks. I do my best to follow your home schedule as much as possible to ensure they will be still on that schedule when you return home.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for many different species. Along with caring for dogs and cats, I also have experience training and taking care of exotic animals like seals and sea lions, which has taught me patience, strong observation skills, and the importance of positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable working with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, whether that means helping keep a puppy on a routine, giving extra patience to a shy pet, or making sure a senior pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your pet like they’re my own I am currently a full-time student at UNCW, so I do have a pretty busy schedule. Monday through Thursday, I am usually busy with classes and other responsibilities from about 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Outside of those hours, I have more flexibility and can make pet care part of my daily routine. I would be able to provide care in the mornings before class, later in the afternoon, and in the evenings. I am also more available on Fridays and weekends. I am used to balancing multiple responsibilities, so I am comfortable planning my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care a pet may need. I make sure all of the basic necessities are taken care of, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and sticking as closely as possible to the pet’s normal routine. I also give them lots of attention, love, and playtime so they feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is cleaned up after each visit, including food areas, accidents, litter boxes if needed, and any toys or supplies used. I also pay attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, whether they are energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed. My goal is to keep them safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bruin home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Bruin.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Bruin sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
