“Konnie was an absolute joy to have watching our baby girl. I got lots of super cute and creative photos and updates and knew she was in great hands the entire weekend. I will definitely be having Konnie back to take care of our pup and loved how attentive she was the entire time. If you're looking for a rover - Konnie is your gal! Thanks again for everything!!!”
“Sherry did an amazing job taking care of my beagle Scout while I was out of town for a few days. Scout is not always an easy dog to care for due to his separation anxiety and I felt very comfortable with Sherry being with him. She sent text and photo updates and took Scout out for activities such as the dog park to help him use all that energy he has. I would use Sherry again on the future for sure!”
“I really can't explain the peace of mind we had with Sauddi staying at our house and watching our 3 cats and 2 dogs! She met our critters a couple of days before and you could tell that she has a unique love for animals. Gave updates and pics as well to make sure we got to see them while away. HIGHLY recommended and we will definitely be hiring her the next time we are out of town!”
“Allie was an excellent sitter for my 2 year old German Shepherd Dog Hero! She was attentive to his needs, took him on regular walks multiple times a day, walked him to the Dog park down the road and let him run and play, and sent me regular updates and photos of their time together. Allie is detail oriented and will follow instructions to the letter. Her and Hero played so hard while she dog/house sat with one of his favorite toys that the squeaker broke out of it and she went out of her way to buy him a close replacement for it as well as a bag of treats which she absolutely didnt have to do but Hero and I appreciated very much! I would highly recommend Allie's services to anyone looking for a pet sitter. I was uneasy at first having a stranger stay at my home to watch my dog, but after seeing how comfortable Hero was around her within minutes of meeting her it gave me some peace of mind and Allie is absolutely worthy of trust and your business. Thanks for all you did for Hero and I Allie and I wish you nothing but the best I'll definitely be in contact next time I need someone to help with Hero!”
“Lori did a very nice job watching our pets while we were on vacation. They were well fed, she took the dogs outside often and watered our plants. She sent pictures of our pets every day and told us how they were doing. She informed us when she was leaving the house for a while and didn't stay away very long. We were impressed how well our chihuahuas liked her. Our dogs don't like very many people....at all. We look forward to having Lori watch our pets when we go on vacation again.”
“We have two rescues that have had rough pasts. Marissa was able to come to our home for a weekend stay with very little experience with them. We received check ins & they seemed content when we arrived home. We also came home to a clean house!”
“Maddy is amazing! She’s so good with our 3 girls. She left the house spotless and perfect. We will definitely request her again soon! Communication is perfect! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
About: While I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent years caring for dogs belonging to family and friends. I’m excited to provide dependable, attentive care and earn your trust through excellent communication and reliable service. I do work full time and am looking for a side gig, I am able to do evening walks or weekend walks if needed and I love walking. I always make sure the pet is comfortable and check in on them. I try to make sure the pet has all of its needs fulfilled and keep a look out for certain behaviors to make sure they’re not in distress.
“We did not know Tara before our trip, and I was a little nervous about leaving our pets with someone new. But I didn’t need to be. She did a wonderful job taking care of our beloved dog, and our bunny, and kept us updated on how they were doing, as we had asked - which allowed me to relax and have a nice time away. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and it’s been a long one!! I’ve also had cats! I believe any animal is a family member and I also believe they understand us as their ‘humans’.

I will provide quality care and time to your pet(s). I will watch and care for your pet as my own. I have one dog, poodle mix and she is very spoiled! Your pet will live like her with walks, treats, sleeping on the bed, laying on the couches, and getting tons of pets!!

We are all very pet friendly and we all work together to take care of our fur friends and make sure they are happy and feel loved all the time!
“She was wonderful. As an experienced pet lover, she immediately bonded with my doggie, Cleo. It was great as she kept me updated with photos and even videos. Cleo was engaged and had a fun time with Kristen. I would highly recommend Kristin.”
“Great communication! ReAna took excellent care of my cat and my place and sent pictures each visit. I really appreciate the check-ins. Would definitely recommend ReAna to anyone as a cat sitter!”
“Laura is one of the kindest souls I have ever met. Loved being away and having NO worries about my fur babies because Laura was there. Would highly recommend Laura as long as she isn’t booked watching my fur babies.”

About: My name is Holly. I am an animal lover! I grew up on a farm, so I am familiar with care of many types of animals. I have never not had a dog in my life. I have a flexible schedue, own my own home, work remotely full-time , and am very dependable. When house sitting, i do prefer stays less than 4 days, but willing to consider longer stays. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your furry loved ones! Why I love dog sitting I have had at least 1 dog my whole life. I've had breeds ranging from Chihuahuas, to Boxers, to Bull Terriers. Dogs are a blessing and I love having them in my life. I will administer pills and liquid drops, but not shots. I work remotely, so I am fully available to your pet. No children or anyone else in the house, so if your dog or cat needs a relaxing stay, I can provide that.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. Grew up with horses, dogs, cats, chickens, donkeys etc. I have always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being that trusted person with others fur babies. I truly see pets as family and treat them with the same care, patience, and respect I would give any person. I will treat your dog like family — because that’s exactly what they are. I currently have a very flexible schedule and would truly love to make caring for your fur baby a special part of my daily routine. I am available for dog walking or in-home care services. While I can’t bring pets into my home due to having a cat, I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of their own home. Being in a familiar environment often helps pets feel more relaxed and secure. I will follow your instructions closely and make sure your home, gates, and fencing are always secure while your pet is in my care.
“WOW..... Apollo had so much fun staying with Julie and her dog Dante. We received several text messages and pictures from Julie. I felt so comfortable leaving Apollo while we were away in DC over the weekend. He was happy to see us upon our return, but I think he now misses Dante his new buddy. I highly recommend Julie for your next dog sitting.”

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 Doylestown 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 Doylestown 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Doylestown 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
