About: Hi, I'm George (nickname Trey), I have fostered dozens of dogs, mostly puppies, and have two rescue pups who live with me. My lab mix is everyone's best friend, while my shepherd mix is often reactive, so I manage the greetings with her separately. After she settles down she loves to play with her new friends. I have a big yard and some woods with trails that the dogs love to walk and sniff. If you need a dog sitter in the Wallingford area please reach out, I would be happy to host your dog and give them a safe, fun place to stay! On work days I still have the option to be at home sometimes, the flexibility is nice when I need to care for dogs. I walk my dogs all the time and we enjoy meeting new walking buddies. Our lengthy walks and playtime are essential to our daily life. My home is a cozy little house with a 4 acre yard, I spend lots of time outside so if your pup likes to be outside they will love it here. Let me know what your pup needs, I am very flexible.

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

I have many years of experience providing loving care in all scenarios, whether it be for young or elderly four-legged friends. I currently have full time availability Monday - Sunday with vehicle access to meet your scheduling needs at any time of the day. Overnight care would preferably be requested in advanced but exceptions can be made. I provide attentive, personalised care tailored to your pet’s needs.

Beyond basic care, any additional instructions will be followed to achieve their normal routine to ensure they feel comfortable in their home.

About: From puppies to older dogs, I've done it all: taking puppies out every 2 hours at night, specific medications at certain times throughout the day, to planned walks/runs. I have experience with puppy training fostering and now I'm training my own kitten. I'm a senior college student who has a lot of time to spare- especially on weekdays! I'm always available to take dogs on walks, jogs, or just for a quick little stop in. Treating fur-babies like my own has always been an easy feat for me. When it comes to home saftey, whether it be my own or a clients, simple communication goes a long way. House rules, schedules and specifications are always a big thumbs up from me!

About: I have been a dog owner for the past two years and have experience with potty training, crate/sleep training, daily walks, feeding, and providing lots of love and attention. I’ve also cared for my neighbors’ dogs and understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I work from home 2–3 days a week, so I have flexibility during the day for walks and drop-in visits. I also have some evenings free when my kids are with their dad. I love being able to fit pet care into my routine while giving dogs plenty of attention, walks, and companionship I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’ll follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I’ll respect their space and their pet’s routine and keep them updated with photos and messages. I’m attentive, patient, and happy to give pets the love and companionship they need while their owners are away.

About: I can take any type of animals!! Crazy, big, small, etc. I love em all. I’m very outgoing with them! And love playing and going on walks and talking to the animals!! My mom worked on Rover for a few years and I always helped out when her clients wanted her care but she wasn’t available. We had dogs stay at our house and it was just as fun for me as it was for them! My mom helped me realize this type of job and without a doubt I would love to do what she did! I am currently a student at Widener University. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I go to class 9 am to 10:50 am and I have another class from 1pm to 1:50pm. Mondays I am blocked off from 2pm to 4pm unfortunately. Tuesdays and Thursdays I have a class at 9:30 to 10:50. For Tuesdays I go into the office 12-6pm but can always do a stop in before then! And Thursdays I have a later lecture from 6pm to 8pm. With my school schedule I have no problem making times work during the weekday! Weekends I basically have open availability. I have them in my view at all times!! I have good communications with dogs and make sure their needs are met by their body language.

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!

About: I've been caring for pets for almost 10 years, including about 8 years of experience with both dogs and cats. I genuinely enjoy spending time with all kinds of dogs—from big to small, energetic to laid-back, and everything in between! I love getting to know each dog's personality and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which gives me great availability for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m able to work around your schedule and provide your pets with the attention and care they need. I’ll always care for your dog with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether we’re out for a walk, enjoying some playtime, having a meal, or simply keeping each other company, I’ll make sure your pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for!

About: I’ve owned dogs for the past 10 years. I helped raise my family’s dog and then got a puppy of my own at the end of 2023! I’m a very active person and absolutely love walking and running. Whether you've got an energetic dog that needs a lot of exercise or a relaxed dog (or cat!) that enjoys a chill stroll, I'm ready for it! My schedule during the day is very open right now, looking to fill it with lots of walks and games of fetch! My weekends and evenings tend to be a bit busier, but I can accommodate special requests if you let me know in advance! I’m happy to provide what ever care your dog needs in your home. Whether that is walks or simple play and pet time, I’m happy to be there.

“OLIVIA was awesome watching my kitty while I was away! She followed all the instructions I asked for which was important to me not only because Buttons is disabled/special needs, but the little guy is also a bit *needy lol. You can tell shes def an animal lover and from the many pics she sent me, Buttons absolutely loved her. I had such peace of mind knowing he was well cared for and I dont think my furbaby noticed I was actually out of town, well not too much, lol.”

Kai & Devon are great - would highly recommend to anyone in the area in need of a sitter. Took great care of our crazy cat while we were out of town - the Rover Cards they shared always had some great pictures and a funny little note about what new craziness our cat was up to that day.

Naomi has been so supportive related to our needs for a kitty caregiver. She visited with our two Siamese cats who can be a bit anti-social and picky eaters. They were so calm when I returned - relaxed and not anxious. She cared for all their food and personal needs - always checking in and keeping our family up to date! Thank you!!

Emma truly was incredible. I felt very comfortable with her taking care of our two WILD doggos while we were away. Our big dog is very anxious and she did great dealing with his behaviors. If she can take care of our two crazy rescue dogs, I am sure she will also do great with all dogs! So happy we found Emma. :) Highly recommend!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Chester Township

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Chester Township is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $32 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 November 2026, there are 9,238 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Chester Township. 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chester Township. 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.

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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
