About: I am 33 years old. I was raised around animals. My father had every pet you can think of in our home. I have experience with cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish, guinea pig, turtles , andeven ponies. I love animals and wish I could own a farm or something similar just so I could be surrounded by animals. I have used rover in the past but lost my login info but I was a dog sitter for about a year. I live in an apartment near Pennypack Park so I can take your pets on walks there or outside my building are grassy areas. If you book with me you will not regret it. I make sure your pets are fed, walked, taken out and played with. I love cuddling and playing with animals. I will take pictures and keep you updating if you would like. I cant wait to hear from you!! I only work weekend nights starting next weekend. I am free any other time. I also have kids who love animals and would love to help. I make sure to have all pets on whatever routine they are used to or I will make one that fits the routines in my house. They will be walked, fed and played with however long they are with me.
About: Hello, my name is Megan and I’ve had pets throughout my whole life, including dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens and turtles! I am dedicated to making sure our furry friends are happy, healthy, and cared for. Please contact me if you have any questions! I currently work two blocks away from where I live, which makes it very convenient for me to be able to stop home throughout the day. I am free on weekends. I’ve taken care of all different kinds of pets in various environments. I am comfortable leaning into new spaces and making sure that the pet I am caring for gets everything he needs. Whether that means trips to the park for more exercise if yard space isn’t enough, or meal planning for pets with specific needs.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’m a cat owner myself and have two wonderful female cats. I’m passionate about providing care. I volunteer at the SPCA and received training in both feline and canine behavior and handling. I regularly attend cat adoption events to help cats find loving homes. A few years ago, my family drove hours to adopt my now 4 year old cat, Francis, after finding her through a Craigslist listing. I’ve also sat pets for family and friends, cats and dogs. I have experience caring for small animals such as hamsters, gerbils, and mice. I use SEPTA and Lyft for transportation, for that reason, I prefer bookings within Philly. My services are available to you and your pet 24/7. My personal routine is very flexible! Your pet comes first and will always be under my supervision during the stay. I am Fear Free® certified and aim for every pet to feel safe and comfortable in my care. I follow any given instructions and keep you updated during the stay with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 or 11, and that's when I also started working on a ranch. Until about 2019 I took care of dogs, chickens, horses, and cats. Animals are a very important part of my life and I'm very good at taking care of them. Taking care of pets is a full-time job, but it's one that I've enjoyed my entire life. I take care of animals in some way everyday and everywhere I've gone. Everything in my house is pet proof and I have hardwood floors just in case there are any accidents. There are gated off and inaccessible areas that the cats can get into but the dogs can't. Everybody has a space. I also have a fenced in yard for them to explore. I live in a very nice neighborhood as well, so it's a safe area to walk the dogs.
About: I have working experience with a vast array of animals. I enjoy learning about different animals, creating species specific care guides and following them! I have experience shadowing at both a dog day care, and a veterinarian hospital. I am in college for Conservation and Wildlife Management, and have a senior dog, and a hamster of my own! I am currently taking a semester off from college, and would love to stay active throughout the fall and winter! I often love to explore new areas, and I'm sure a pet would too! I am very responsible to make sure all doors, gates, etc are closed and locked before leaving to ensure no pet escapes. Animal safety is a priority of mine, and I will be sure to follow any instructions left for this reason. I will also clean up any mess left by a pet that occurs while I'm there.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable, compassionate dog sitter who treats every pet like family. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, so I provide personalized care to help them feel comfortable, happy, and safe while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing plenty of love and companionship, I’m committed to giving your furry friend the attention they deserve. You can count on me for reliable communication, photo updates, and a safe, caring environment where your dog will feel right at home. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive care throughout the week. I make time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of companionship. I strive to accommodate your pet’s regular routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any house rules your pet is used to. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of attention, play, and supervision. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have experience taking care of family members pets as well as my own dog, Toby. While the sweetest angel he’s also a little rascal so I have my fair share of experience dealing with troublemakers:) I’m currently a grad student who has classes on weekdays but am completely free on weekends! I also have time in between classes to drop by. As my class schedule differs slightly each day, I can be pretty flexible! Any instruction given to care for your fur baby will be followed as given. I’ll be happy to do anything to keep your fur baby happy and comfortable.
About: Ever since I was born, we have had a dog in the house. So, I have spent my whole life around dogs. In high school, I loved to go on long walks with my dog, Bella. In college, I was part of The Seeing Eye dog club. There I gained experience working with young service dogs in training. It was amazing to work with such young dogs and help them gain exposure to the world around them so they could focus on important work later in life. After college, I volunteered with EASEL Animal Rescue League, Shelter, & Pet Adoption, where we did pack walks and some group discipline training. It was during COVID that I started to really fall in love with cats. I was working on a farm, and a lot of my coworkers were barn cats. There was also a kitty transfer I did for EASEL Animal Rescue League, Shelter, & Pet Adoption, which made me so happy to help a kitty in need. A few years later, after I moved out, I adopted my own cat, Buttercup, from Treetops Kitty Café, and she has become my whole world. I am currently in between jobs, so I have a lot of free time on my hands. I would love to take your dog for long walks, play fetch, and feed them. I am also open to helping take care of older dogs since they need more love and attention in their old age. I would also love to keep your cats company while you are away and make sure you are sent plenty of update photos. I'm currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of free time to take dogs for long walks and to keep energetic cats entertained. I am currently volunteering with PAWS in Philadelphia in order to spend more time helping animals in need. I will make sure to check in with each client to know the problem areas within each home, ask about typical hiding spots, and where cleaning supplies are for any accidents. I will also ask permission to take your pet to nearby parks and ask if there are areas that are off-limits.
“Lyndsay is terrific. She was prompt and the dogs love her. They got excited when she arrived and were suitably tired when they returned. I would definitely engage her again.”
“Danielle had been great with Okami. He's usually very reserved and defensive with new people. But he warned up to her in just two walks. Bonus is that she takes tons of photos.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Cheltenham is $20

Hired Emily to walk my dog for the week and she was great. She was very communicative and timely. My dog can be very overwhelming with how excited she gets but Emily handled her with no issues. She followed all the instructions/requests I made. She got along great with my dog and I will definitely be using Emily again if I ever need walks or visits for my dog!
Germal was truly the perfect person to help us with my pup. He went above and beyond in every aspect to make sure my dog and our home were taken care of. He was super responsive and easy to work with, being flexible and willing to make adjustments if needed. I cannot express how much I recommend Germal and how much my dog is looking forward to seeing him again!
Courtney was amazing. I booked her on short notice. She canceled her appointment which was completely unnecessary to come in. Dogs hit my dog. She was professional and was sweet and loving to my puppy. She was confident and took charge, which is exactly what we needed. I will hundred percent use her again and I hope that you guys use her services. Your pet would be thankful that you set up an appointment with Courtney.
I highly recommend Alexys for your pet care needs! I’ve been working with her for about a month, and she has quickly become one of my most trusted, go-to sitters. She is incredibly professional, kind, and communicates effectively, which I truly appreciate given my busy schedule. Most importantly, she takes wonderful care of my dog; I can see how comfortable my pup is with her, and the frequent updates during bookings give me complete peace of mind. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her!
Norbert is the consummate professional. He walks our 3 year old Rottweiler, who has tons of energy. But please note, my roommate's boss named our home, Casa de 24 paws and all 24 paws love him. One of our animals, who happens to be a cat, has vocalized his wishes to be walked too. We are not going to embarrass Norbert and ask him to walk our cat, no matter how much or loud Quincy meows. I highly recommend Norbert, but not during my dog's walks. :-)
I use Matthew on a regular basis for dog walks and cannot recommend him enough. He is kind, professional, helpful, and attentive to your dog. My dog and I have been adjusting to a new routine over the past month, Matthew has been a huge help to me personally, adjusting bookings as changes in schedule happen, reaching out to resolve app issues, and ensuring my dogs needs are met when I’m not around and providing her with a sense of comfort, seeing him routinely and enjoying his presence. Thank you Matthew, truly, your efforts do not go unnoticed!
We can’t say enough good things about JJ! Our 6-month-old puppy is full of energy and mischief, but JJ handles him with patience, kindness, and expertise. In just the first week, she's already helped him learn better habits and we’re so grateful to have found her!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Cheltenham. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.

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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 walker.
