I would highly reccomnd her to family and friends as i can tell she also has a passion for pets.”
About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life and have 3 years of experience pet sitting for friends, family and community members. I have experience with various dog breeds at all different life stages, all with widely varying needs. I truly love connecting with, being with and caring for animals and derive great satisfaction from developing loving relationships with furry friends. With me, you can rest assured that your loved ones are taken care of with attentiveness, kindness and reverence. I work part-time and am typically unavailable from 1-6pm Monday-Friday. Outside of that time I am happy to be with and care for your loved ones! I only pet-sit in other's homes due to having my own pets. I love people just as much as animals, and as such, do my best to respect other's space, property and boundaries. I abide by campground rules in life meaning I do my best to always leave a space just as I found it, if not better off. I believe communication is very important and I like to connect with clients to discuss all expectations and boundaries in regard to both their animals and their home.
“Lindsey was incredible with our fur babies! She was very attentive to their needs including caring for one of our pups that was in heat. She was very thorough in learning their schedules and how to best care for them. She sent great updates and pictures. Will definitely be booking Lindsay again! 😁”
About: I have extensive experience and enjoy taking care of dogs of any age and size. I know about many breeds and their behavior as well! I am available throughout the week, morning & night. So you are open to contacting me anytime. This allows me to provide great love ❤️ and care for your pet. I understand that all dogs have different natures and habits. Please provide me with a short briefing on your dog’s needs and habits, and I will provide the best accommodations for him/her.
About: Although my cats may not like dogs, I do!! I would love for an opportunity to have a 4 legged companion to join me on my daily walks- something my cats are just simply not willing to do. I am available most days, very flexible!! At the moment I am a stay at home mom so I’m happy to drop in whenever. Message me with any questions!! I have 3 indoor cats, who all live a very lavish lifestyle. Scooping liter & ensuring cats / dogs have clean water and food bowls is always a must. Laser toys & interactive toys are my go to (even if you have lazy cats like mine)
About: Hi, I’m Abby! 🐾 I had the joy of owning and caring for my family’s two Shih Tzus since I was 10 years old, and they became two of my very best animal friends. Sadly, they both crossed the rainbow bridge 2 years old. Now I give my love for my pets to others’ furry friends. Growing up with my Shih Tzus has taught me just how much love, patience, and care our pets deserve. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with pet sitting, house sitting, and babysitting, and family, friends, and babysitting clients have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their beloved pets as if they were my own. A fun fact about me: I’m a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) by day! My background has taught me the value of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and I love using those principles to help animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I know pets are family, and I’ll treat your furry friend with the same love and attention I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and give them all the care, affection, and attention they deserve! 🐶❤️ I have the most availability during evenings, weekends, and select weekdays depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll do my best to provide dependable, loving care for your furry family members! Safety and comfort are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and welcome them into your home. I will follow your care instructions closely, ensure a safe environment, and make sure your furry friends receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection during every visit or walk. During walks, I will use appropriate safety precautions, keep your dog securely leashed, and remain attentive to their surroundings and individual needs. For drop-in visits, I aim to respect your home, follow your pet’s feeding and care routines, and ensure they have everything they need before I leave.
“Anna was a wonderful pet and housesitter! She took excellent care of our dog and cat. Our dog is a rescue with some special needs and she bonded with her and cared for her perfectly. Her experience with animals shows. Our family highly recommends this caring, trustworthy, responsible petsitter!”
“Giselle was great with my dog and kitty 😺 She gave my dog his medicine as instructed and fed him as well. My dog is a picky eater and she was able to get him to eat. Will definitely use her again!”
“Valeria was super easy to work with and communicated well. She was attentive and thoughtful while watching our dog. Would definitely recommend and will rebook for pup's sitting in the future”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have cared for every personality you can imagine —> hyper pups, mellow cats, protective dogs, social butterfly pets, and those who think they’re human. Over the years I’ve learned the most important skill in all any care: patience. I began pet sitting in 2015 for friends and family and quickly became the go-to person when someone needed reliable care. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, turtles, snakes, fish, and hamsters. I am a former Petco employee so I have seen, cared, and handled them all. I adapt easily to each pet’s routine and personality, and I always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I can take care of our furry friend on days that become available to me. I have an accurate schedule set up two weeks in advance with plenty of time to check up on meet and greets. For 🐶: I have experience with crate trained dogs as well as house bound only dogs. I make sure that the pet’s physical health is stimulated by taking them on walks and playing games with them. I adjust to their schedule and their likes/dislikes in the home. I have experience with dogs that weren’t allowed in certain rooms or outside without a leash and I would make sure of that. For 🐱: these furry friends thrive on routine and familiarity, so I focus on keeping everything consistent and stress-free. When caring for cats in their own home, I stick to their regular feeding schedule, refresh water bowls, and keep litter boxes clean. I spend time with them based on their personality whether that’s interactive play or just being nearby for company. I also make sure their space stays tidy and cozy so they feel secure while you’re away. For all other friends 🐠🐢🐹🦜🐓🐰🦎🐍: I understand how important it is to keep even the smallest pets feeling safe and cared for while you are away. I always follow your care instructions closely to keep their routines consistent, whether that means feeding fish and turtles on schedule, refreshing water for rabbits and hamsters, making sure birds and chickens have a clean and comfortable space, checking heat lamps for reptiles, etc I pay attention to the little details that matter, like maintaining proper water / temperature levels for aquatic pets, cleaning cages and habitats thoroughly, and giving each animal the right balance of attention and gentle handling based on their needs. My goal is always to create a calm and secure environment so every pet, no matter how small, stays healthy and happy until you return. 🪴: I also offer plant care, keeping your plants watered and healthy so they thrive until you return.
About: I’ve had pets all my life, mostly dogs i love dogs so MUCH, i don’t see them as pets i see them all as best friends and therapy. they’re so nice and loving and forgiving and cuddly, I’m patient with these little angels and i have experience pet sitting and doing minor training with them! I’m working sort of a part time job And am off Wednesday, and Weekends. I can dog walk anytime after 6:00pm on weekdays. So being productive will help me with new responsibilities and things for me to learn about different breeds of dogs! ill take care of your pets as if they’re my own, show them the love they need as if they’re owner never left!
“Marlena stayed at our house with our pets for what was supposed to be a 4-day trip and ended up being 5 days due to travel complications. She was such a lifesaver staying the extra day with no notice at all. Her communication is great and she sends multiple pics of the pets a day. She left the house clean and I could tell our pup was very happy throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I was an ER vet in NM, CA & IL for 28 years. Rehab vet for the last 12 years. Semi-retired now. All the skills except training. I'm currently semi-retired. No more 12 hour work days. No more 6 day work weeks. But I still want to do what I love doing around dogs and cats and their owners. I have a cat named Oliver. He needs medication twice a day, so I will need to go check in on him while pet sitting. I'm also a night owl if you need someone later in the day.
About: Hi there, my names Natalie & I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Horses, dolphins and dogs are my top fav. I have grown up with dogs since I was 5, I was always in charge of feeding, play time, bathroom and bath time. Having dog or cat sitted for friends or family throughout my life I am very comfortable around any animal big or small. Previous work at a vet clinic and animal shelters along with kennel jobs have provided me with the adequate animal care and skills needed to care for your fur baby! I’m a full time mom so I prefer to work hours while my child is in school. Night or weekends can be planned as well. I can take your pet out for walks, hikes, or dog park trips if allowed. Crate is available as well if dog or cat prefers.
About: From larger dogs to lizards, guinea pigs, and cats, every animal best friend deserves to be treated like family. I have spent many years volunteering at shelters and animal rescues, dog walking, and pet sitting for family and friends. I understand firsthand what it takes to care for animals with specialized diets and daily medication needs. My own cats require a bit more as they enter their senior years, so i understand how much patience it can take. That said, I know how important it is to maintain a routine, especially when your animal best friend misses you. I work a full-time remote job for a wildlife conservation nonprofit, which gives me the flexibility to stay with your best friend all day if you're interested. I'm happy to go above and beyond for your best friend, whether you're taking on family responsibilities, taking that much-needed vacation, or just need someone to stop by while you're away for a long day. I can't wait to connect with you and meet your pet best friend. I work a full-time remote job with a wildlife conservation non-profit. That said, my daily schedule is fairly flexible and can even include staying with your pet during the workday to keep them company. Weekends are also fairly flexible, although I try to make the most of my time with family and friends. So, I likely won't be able to spend the entire day with your pet as I would be during the weekdays, but I will still spend quality time with them when requested, especially if requested far enough in advance that I can schedule it into my weekends and around family. I make environmental safety a priority. I follow all precautions and safety guidelines you requested and avoid anything that could create a hazard or unsafe situation for your pet. I am familiar with cat CPR and the steps to take if you find a cat choking. These precautions also include saving your vet's contact information and finding the nearest emergency vet to remain prepared for any situation. If you request outside time, I will do so only in a secure location to minimize the risk of your furry friend getting lost or injured. My youngest cat (7 years old), has a few hours of supervised time in our fenced yard every morning. She also wears an AirTag collar whenever we aren't home or if she's in our yard, in addition to supervision. I have extra AirTags I can attach to your best friend's collar (or I can bring an extra collar) for additional monitoring while you're away, if you are interested.
“It was immediately obvious that Amy has had dogs in her entire life. Both of my pups immediately loved her as if they had been good buddies forever. DOGS JUST KNOW! Jojo, the 1 year old Cocker Spaniel, always freaks out with new people, but not with Amy. The 6 1/2 year old German Shepherd, Princess, acted like she had known Amy her whole life.”
About: I have a Weimaraner who’s 5 years! I took em car if animals from friends and family since I was very little and at one point had to foster and take care of 5 kittens and 2 dogs! I go to school during the week, I am available weekends only to help assist any pet activities. I can walk, check in and do an over night stay! I have a huge crate in my home and my dog loves being in my room and I’ll always have the keys separated by room as well. I have a small patio they can enjoy themselves in and a huge friend ti run around infront.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bryn Mawr
I couldn’t recommend Suzie more highly for both dog sitting and house sitting! She is so sweet and thoughtful, and having her care for our dogs and home was such a relief. Suzie was a fantastic communicator, followed our instructions, and was punctual and reliable. We especially appreciated how much time she spent with our dogs. When she went out, she was back within a couple of hours, so they weren’t left on their own for long stretches. She also sent photos every morning and evening, which did so much to ease our anxiety and help us enjoy our time away. She was incredibly patient with our dogs’ early wake-up calls—even our older dog’s very insistent approach to getting her attention—and took it all in stride. She also left our home just as clean as we’d left it, right down to washing the containers we’d used to portion out the dogs’ food! Those thoughtful little touches really stood out. Above all, Suzie is someone you can trust. You can tell she really cares about doing a great job and, most of all, about the dogs themselves. She was an absolute joy to work with, and we would happily book her again!
Nick took wonderful care of our dogs! It’s always stressful to leave them, but after meeting Nick I felt very at ease. He seemed trust worthy, friendly, and a genuinely kind person. Upon returning home the dogs were happy and relaxed. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing a trustworthy person to take care of their furry family members! Thanks again Nick!
Riley stayed at our house and took wonderful care of our dog, Bean. Riley kept the house just as tidy as it was Left and sent photos/updates throughout, which we really appreciated. Bean was happy, calm, and clearly well loved while away and we'd welcome Riley back into our home anytime.
Ashley is a perfect house and pet sitter. We have worked with Ashley a number of times and she is always good and reliable. The dogs are well cared for and content we come back. She sends updates each day with photos of the dogs. We don't worry about anything when we are gone.
Andy is above and beyond an amazing pet sitter!! Instantly my dog felt comfortable and Andy sent updates and pictures and even asked questions to clarify which was very respectful. Andy is trustworthy, understanding and very respectful my dog found a new best friend!! I highly recommend Andy!!
We loved Abby as well as our Dog Charlie. It was our first time using her but we immediately felt she would be the perfect fit. She was sweet, smart and very respectful. I could tell she loved animals. When you leave your pet with a stranger you worry about them but I could sense that our dog felt very comfortable with her. When we returned home after being gone 3 days she left a nice note and had done the laundry. That was really above and beyond.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bryn Mawr
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Bryn Mawr is $58 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $94 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 2,346 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bryn Mawr. 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 Bryn Mawr 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 Bryn Mawr 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.
Tip: 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 Bryn Mawr 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.
