About: I have had two family dogs, Murphy and Miley, who have been my very best buddies. In addition to having dog- and cat-sat many summers before, my college roommate also had a sweet cat, Phoebe, that I cared for in her absence. I am ready to care for all types of dogs and cats, and I love dog walking! I recently graduated from Clemson University with a biology degree. I am a recent college graduate with a biology degree currently looking for full-time research work. In the meantime, I want to put my deep love for pets to work! As such, my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I am well versed in hanging out with dogs and cats. I have lived with both, cared for both, and love to hang out (and cuddle if they like!), play inside, or take long walks with them.
About: I've cared for my sister's dog for over 5 years, and she means the world to me. Being around animals brings me so much joy, and I treat them like family. I'm a passionate animal lover who values their happiness, comfort, and well-being above all else. Whether it's walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I strive to make every moment special for the pets in my care. I currently work a part-time job, but I’m fully committed to making time for dog sitting on my days off. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to accommodate your needs on any days I’m not working at my other job. Caring for animals is my passion, and I’m dedicated to providing reliable, attentive, and loving care whenever I’m available. When caring for pets in a clients home, I respect their space and follow any instructions provided carefully. My goal is to make sure the pets feel secure by maintaining regular routines.
About: Through out my life I have owned two senior dogs who required extra love and attention. I have trained and worked with puppies as well. I am currently available weekdays at anytime throughout the day. I can do morning or evenings. I can not wait to play with your dogs! I have experience watching fur babies in clients homes. I can help in anyway that you need whether it’s medicine, walks, playtime, or nap time.
About: I grew up in a household with many animals and have always loved walking our dogs and taking care of the cats and other animal friends. I would love to care for your pets and give them a special moment in their day and help you remove one thing off the to-do list. Our lives get very busy and for pet-owners, having an extra hand here and there can be very beneficial. As a college student, I am using Rover to help with finances during the semesters. Mixing physical exercise with hanging out with your pet for some time sounds like the perfect activity for me! I hope to be able to assist you with your pet needs. Best, Sieira I am currently a college student at West Chester University and a part-time employee at Wawa, so my availability depends on the day. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am able to be booked for walks or drop ins from 11:30am until 5pm. Saturdays I am only available in the afternoon, from 4pm to 8pm. Sundays I am available anytime requested in the morning until 5pm! I always ensure the pet is comfortable on walks, offering plenty of sniff breaks and giving them lots of water afterwards. For drop ins, I would love to hang out with your pet and allow for some fun socialization when they need it! I always do a temperature check on what the pet is feeling before taking action, as every animal is different and has various needs.
About: I am an animal lover with 5+ years experience caring for neighborhood pets. I will provide specialized care for your loved ones when you are away. I have a flexibility in my schedule to provide consistent and reliable care. I will work with you to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. I am a trustworthy and respectful guest when I come to your home to look after your pets. Your safety and your pets safety are paramount.
About: I've lived with and cared for dogs for my entire life; I love all animals, big, small, young, old and anywhere in between, the more animals the better! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, and fish and I get along with all of them. I am available for early mornings and late nights as well as weekends. I am also familiar with and unphased by the less glamorous sides of pet care, I don't mind cleaning up after puppy accidents, I have some experience grooming our shaggier four legged friends, and I know how to administer most puppy medications. I work from home so my availability is wide open for whatever you and your animals need. I am an extremely active person so there is no limit to much I will love and play with your pup, but I will also be patient and sensitive to nervous dog and cats. There is no puppy personality that I don't love. I can't wait to meet your dog! I work remote most days. I also have weekends and evenings available for more involved activities. When im not pet sitting i like to take my own dog for hiking/ camping adventures! A typical day starts with breakfast and a nice romp around the yard, or brisque walk around the neighborhood so your dog can go potty and get out some morning energy. I have a flexible schedule at work so i can take frequent breaks to play and attend to your critters needs. In the evenings, im free again and i like to spend time being active, whether its a long walk, a game of fetch, or even an adventure to the park
About: Hello! I am a huge animal lover, who regrets not pursuing a degree in Veterinary Medicine. Animals have been my passion, love, and a needed presence for my entire life; in fact, my first word was kitty. As a child I researched animals of all kinds, and still do today. I love to train and play with dogs, snuggle with cats, ride horses, sing with the birds, make kissy faces at fish, etc. I often research natural pet care(& for humans!), training for all animals. I am educated in pet behavior and look for any signs of distress or change in your pets behavior, physical and mental health. I also enjoy making homemade organic, healthy treats for all pets. I've had many types of animals over the years and genuinely looking to enjoy time with your pets. I'm happy to just spend time, train (I am not a professional but do enjoy training) and walk or hike. I am a Mama to 5 cats & one Golden/Brittany mix (who are not currently in my home & in Maine as they transition here). I have owned two special needs cata that required medication, special requirements and sub-q fluids at home - I am happy to care for any special requirements. I also do a lot of pet photography and would be overjoyed to take your pets photos! I'm excited to meet and bond with your fur babies! I work typical M-F hours and off on the weekends (and summer!). I will fully integrate their needs into my schedule and ensure their needs are met and they are happy, safe and healthy. I will treat your pets as my own while you are away. I am very affectionate and attentive and truly seek to connect with your baby. I'm happy to send pictures and videos as much as you like! I'd like to connect not only with them, but you and hopefully be a trusted person to rely on when you need care for your animals.

About: Hi, I’m Matt. I love dogs and enjoy giving them a calm, comfortable place to stay while their owners are away. I grew up with dogs and have often helped care for my parents’ and sister’s dogs, so I know how important it is to have someone dependable who treats your dog like part of the family. I work from home in health IT consulting, which allows me to be present during the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and general companionship. I only take one client at a time, so your dog will get plenty of individual attention and will not be in a crowded boarding environment. I live in a quiet, owner-occupied apartment in West Chester with no children and no other pets. My home is best for small or mid-sized dogs who are comfortable in an apartment setting. While I do not have a fenced yard, I take dogs out for supervised leash walks, and the neighborhood has grassy areas and light local traffic. I’m happy to provide daily exercise, potty breaks every 2–4 hours, and oral medication administration if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed if that is what they are used to at home. For safety and comfort, I always like to do a meet and greet before confirming a stay to make sure it is a good fit for your dog, your expectations, and my home environment. I can also provide recommendations/references from people whose dogs I have cared for. I currently accept dogs over 1 year old, crate-trained dogs only, and no females in heat. I’m especially a good fit for dogs who do well in a quieter home and enjoy walks, attention, and a predictable routine. Overnight boarding is based on Rover’s 24-hour booking period. I’m always happy to clarify drop-off and pick-up timing before a stay so there are no surprises. I look forward to helping your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I work from home in health IT consulting and have flexibility throughout the day. I’m usually home during the workday, which allows me to provide regular attention, potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. During a typical day, I can take dogs out for potty breaks every 2–4 hours and provide walks or exercise based on the dog’s needs, energy level, and the weather. I also build in time for play, rest, and keeping the dog comfortable in a calm home environment. Because I only take one client at a time, I’m able to keep the schedule focused on that dog’s normal routine as much as possible. I ask owners to share feeding times, walk preferences, medication needs, crate routines, and any special instructions so I can keep their dog’s care consistent and predictable while they are away. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment for dogs in my home. I live in a quiet, owner-occupied apartment with no children and no other pets, and I only take one client at a time so each dog receives individual attention. Before confirming a stay, I always prefer to do a meet and greet to make sure your dog is comfortable with me, my home, and the overall environment. I want both the owner and the dog to feel confident that it is a good fit. During a stay, I follow the owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, crate routines, walking preferences, and any behavioral or comfort needs. I provide regular potty breaks every 2–4 hours, supervised leashed walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Since I work from home, I am usually able to give dogs attention and supervision during the day. Dogs are welcome on furniture and the bed if that matches their routine at home. I do not have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is supervised and on leash. My neighborhood has grassy areas and light local traffic, which makes it a good setting for regular walks. For safety and comfort, I currently accept dogs over 1 year old, crate-trained dogs only, and no females in heat. I can also provide oral medication administration when needed. I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are away.
“Nicole is the best! Our cats loved her when they met her and she took the best of care of them. Each day she let us know how they were doing and sent us photos. I hope she will be available the next time we go somewhere!”


About: I’ve been involved in animal care for years with experience volunteering at animal shelters/veterinary hospitals and pet sitting. I also care for my two cats, George and Theodore and assist with my parents animals. I work remotely during the week and my schedule is flexible. Happy to drop in throughout the day and schedule times that work best for you! I will be sure to follow directions on your preferences of taking care of your animals! I want to give the best experience possible and will ensure your pets safety is my number 1 priority.
About: I have a lot of experience with pets, both dogs and cats from a young age. I have a five year old Boston terrier at home. I am currently working a full time job, but I would be available for drop in visits/dog walks during the week after 3pm or on the weekends either day or night time. I am currently living in a small apartment so I would not be available for boarding someone else’s dog in my own home. Thank you.
“Courtney was amazing, took such great care of our pup and was very responsive from day one. I would highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Tracy was great! She looked in on our older cat and younger dog this past week. Our older cat has some health issues and Tracy reported on his eating/other habits to help keep us apprised of his situation. She also took our dog for a few walks, fed her and gave her some company. Tracy responded to texts quickly, is friendly and our pets seemed to be just fine with her! We’re so thrilled!”

“We have had Jordan sit for our cats (and fish!) three times now and she is absolutely the best! She communicates with us right away if there are any concerns or issues and she sends great updates about our fur babies. I trust they are in wonderful hands with her!”


About: Hi! My name is Dante and I absolutely love dogs. I do not treat this as a job but as a privilege to take care of pets. I have always had a pet in my household, so I am very comfortable with dogs. I am young and promise I will have just as much energy as your dog does. I am very good at butt scratches and belly rubs. I will be prepared for any situation and I am very easy to contact. I understand plans get altered and I am flexible with changing schedules. I will treat your dog as I treat mine and make sure everything is done to the best of my ability. I hope you allow me to make your dog’s day the absolute best I can. Thank you
“Amanda is the perfect sitter. We felt so happy that our dogs were with her while we were gone. Our dogs were so happy the whole time and Amanda sent us plenty of photos. She even stopped by for an extra visit because we had a flight delay. Our one dog is a big, excitable Rhodesian Ridgeback but she had no problem handling him. We will never use anybody else in this area to watch our dogs.”

“Cal and Kris were great and went above and beyond! Dozer seemed so happy to spend time with them, they rolled with the punches (regarding some schedule changes), were very responsive and overall so kind!! Cannot recommend enough!”

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 Chadds Ford 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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