About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog as well as family and friends dogs for about 10 years. I am able to take long walks, feed, and entertain in general. I consider myself very trustworthy as I’ve had a dog my whole life. I recently just graduated college and am back home living in LANGHORNE, PA so I am free on weekdays any time after 12 pm. I can walk around for some good exercise for the dog or just play in the yard. I live in a great area for nice long walks. If I’m staying at a clients home, I provide lots of cuddles inside as well as fun play time outside.

About: I have been taking care of and surrounded by dogs my whole life! I grew up with Bernese Mountain Dogs and Golden Retrievers, and we currently have an English Bulldog. I have extensive experience with dog walking, general pet sitting and overnight stays. I have worked with both puppies and senior dogs, some of which have required special care. I never hesitate to ask questions and value good communication with owners! I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I’m currently a university student in my last semester and babysit part-time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your babies. I can do scheduled care, as well as last-minute visits/care depending on my schedule. My weekends are generally free all day as well. I can do overnights any day of the week, as my classes are later! I am flexible:) I ensure I know the owners rules and routine for the pups, avoiding letting them roam anywhere they’re not supposed to, be on furniture they’re not supposed to, allowed to go on walks, etc. I make sure I know how much food the dogs get, when, where extra food may be, etc. Cleaning up after myself and the pups and treating the space as I would want my space to be treated! Again, if I am unsure about something, I do NOT hesitate to ask a question.

About: I have always loved animals and will love taking care of yours. Some info about me, I work as a volunteer vet tech so I am able to give your dog oral or subcutaneous medicine. My family and I have four dogs and two cats that I take care of by taking them on walks, brushing their teeth, and bathing. I have also dog sat a couple homes while pet parents are away. I am currently a student at wcu and am on a flexible schedule as my gymnastics season just ended and the semester is coming to an end. I have a Maltese poodle mix(Chase) that lives at college with me and my roommates and I always put him on a leash when letting him outside and he is currently on an eating routine. Chase is a picky pup with allergies and high anxiety so I have understood how to deal with high maintenance dogs and well as my sisters German shepherd and lab and the two dogs and cats my parents have at home. I am well versed with taking care of any type of dog or cat.

About: With experience as a former veterinary technician, I have a strong background in providing safe, attentive, and compassionate care for dogs and cats. I’m experienced with administering medications, maintaining daily routines, and providing general pet care while paying close attention to each animal’s individual needs. I’ve worked in a variety of animal shelters and kennels, giving me experience with pets of different ages, personalities, and behavioral needs. I have a particular understanding of dog behavior and am comfortable working with shy, nervous, or anxious dogs and cats. My goal is always to help each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I also previously fostered puppies through the Brandywine SPCA, where I helped prepare them for adoption by teaching basic commands, manners, and foundational training. Before each pet-sitting stay, I like to meet with you and your pets so I can learn their routines, preferences, personalities, and specific needs. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. I look forward to meeting your pets and providing them with the same patience, attention, and care I would give my own. Your pets’ safety and well-being are always my top priorities I currently work full-time at a kennel with a consistent schedule, including the same days off each week. My typical shifts are six hours, with occasional 10-hour weekend shifts. I receive my schedule two weeks in advance, allowing me to plan ahead and maintain flexibility for additional work commitments While I’m currently unable to have pets in my own home, I’m happy to travel to your home to provide pet-sitting services. I like to meet both you and your pets beforehand so they can get comfortable with me in their own environment. This also gives me the opportunity to learn about their routines, personalities, and individual needs while getting to know you and building a trusting relationship. I love spending quality time with pets, whether that means playing with dogs and cats, giving them attention and companionship, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. :::

About: I have been looking into doing petsitting for some time now and I know that from prior experience with pets and volunteer work, I am able to provide your pets’ needs in any way possible. I’m currently doing a art class until the 20th and is volunteering at the cat cafe from time to time so my availability may vary. I would clean up litters from my cats’ litter boxes and give food to them. I have been a volunteer at a cat cafe that a friend of mine was a part of for a while now. We would clean the cats’ litter boxes, food bowls, make sure that the cats are fed, and straighten up the cafe along with organizing the cats’ toys so it’s easy for the cats to navigate.

About: I have taken care of multiple types of animals, large and small all of my life. I specialize in senior animal care (cats and dogs) as I have always adopted senior animals to live out their days, no matter their medical conditions. I am also very active and enjoy having a companion for outdoor activities. My life revolves around my animals and the animals I take care of both inside and outside of work. I will schedule my day around the animals. I care for every animal as if it were my own. It is important for me to understand every animal's unique needs and personalities so they are the most comfortable when their owners aren't home.

About: When I was a kid my twin and I started a dog walking business in our neighborhood. We walked dogs of all sizes, house sat for cats, dogs, and other animals, and did drop by visits. I have cared for many animals and have a lot of professional hands-on experience. I also own my own dog and have had cats my whole life. I have extensive experience with medical needs as all of my animals have intricate medical needs and chronic conditions. I care for senior animals as well as puppies and kittens! I'm working part time and most of my work is completely remote and flexible so I have lots of time to dedicate to your beloved animals! I'm very detail oriented so feel free to leave me lots of instructions so that I can continue caring for your pet as if you were there yourself!

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old who recently passed away. I live with my parents who are also fellow animal lovers and love when I pet-sit for friends. It brings life and fun to our household to host your furry friends. I currently work part time waitressing a few nights a week nearby. I am off weekends so I have all that time carved out to take care of pets! I have an unfenced, medium sized open field directly across from my condominium building I can take your pet for potty breaks and play time. I can keep them leashed for their safety. My parents, who I live with, are fellow animal lovers who love spending time with animals. I have a lazy cat who spends most of the day sleeping, but he lives upstairs in our split unit with my parents. My unit is entirely separate from where he resides, so if your pet doesn’t like cats, it’s no problem!

“Carly was fantastic. She took such great care of our two boys for a week, they were fed and the litter box was spotless when we got home. The most impressive thing was when Carly sent us pictures she was petting our cats. They don't often take to strangers so quickly but loved her right away. I highly recommend using Carly.”

About: Dog walker & cat lover. My pet experience spans from check-in walks to month-long over nights. I enjoy the outdoors and can walk your dog in any weather. I’ve cared for big and small dogs and a variety of cat breeds. I have a lenient, remote 9-5. I can keep your pet company while you’re at work, or stop in for a walk depending on your needs. I travel from time to time but will mark my schedule. I’d prefer pet care to take place in the client’s home. Would need to spend time with your pet before considering boarding at my home.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Chadds Ford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Chadds Ford is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 8,247 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Chadds Ford. 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.

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 .

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.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Chadds Ford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chadds Ford. On Rover:

  • 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.

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.
