About: Lil dogs to big dogs or cats can't forget our fury felines. I have lots of love to give the animals I'm currently looking to get a dog. I might not have to if i enjoy taking care of your pets. I'm patient with animals and people that says alot but I'm loving and caring. That comes naturally. Right now I want to share my joy with your pets. I went to an agricultural school and gained experience caring for ferrets, sheeps, horses and cows etc. I grew up with dogs in my household and learning the responsibilities of providing for dogs. I'm comfortable with animals and I'm confident I can provide the safety and security to fit your pets temperament. I'm looking forward yay!
“I left my cat, Leo, with Autumn for 7 days, and when I returned, I was pleasantly surprised. Leo looked beautiful and well cared for, as if he had just come from a grooming appointment. Autumn did a wonderful job taking care of him. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember! I started dog walking at 16 and have been volunteering at local animal shelters since I was 18, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and even reptiles, so I’m comfortable handling different personalities and care needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to treat your pets with the utmost care and ensure they’re happy and safe while you’re away. I work full-time so I offer all services, but for house sitting and house boarding, I can provide potty breaks between 4-8 hours. I always treat your home with the same respect and care as I would my own. While caring for your pets, I make sure their routines stay consistent—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just relaxing together. I’m attentive to details like keeping feeding areas tidy, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring your home stays secure while you’re away.

About: I know when a dog is anxious or needs attention. Previously working at a Canine Club has made me understand dogs more especially with watching multiple at once. I handle big and small dogs and have excelled immensely with this job. I am a full-time student at WCU. I will stay with the dog as long as I can and can make frequent visits if need be. I will always have my eyes on the dog at all times whilst giving endless amount of attention and love. If there is a gated area provided, and is a nice day out, I would mainly spend most of my visit outside to get the dog fresh air and some room to run around.
About: Experienced and compassionate, I am a dedicated animal sitter with a passion for providing exceptional care for pets. What sets me apart from other sitters is my specialized skill set, including training puppies and expertise in senior pet care. I excel in establishing a strong foundation for good behavior through puppy training techniques and providing gentle and attentive care for senior animals, managing medications and addressing mobility issues. With a personalized approach, I tailor care routines to meet the unique needs of each animal, ensuring their well-being and happiness. Additionally, I am skilled in understanding and interpreting animal behavior, enabling effective communication and building trust. With training in pet first aid and CPR, I am prepared to handle emergencies and prioritize the safety of all animals under my care. I still have school, so it honestly just depends on after 4. After 4 I’m free for the rest if the day, and i need something to do with the rest of my time, and given i have not much better to do i’d prefer to take care and watch over animals! When caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client's residence, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for them. In my home, I provide a designated space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I ensure that this area is clean, secure, and equipped with the necessary essentials such as bedding, toys, and food/water bowls. Additionally, I maintain a regular feeding schedule to meet their dietary needs. Exercise and playtime are also integral parts of my care routine, as I engage pets in stimulating activities tailored to their energy levels and preferences. If caring for pets in a client's home, I ensure to follow any specific instructions provided, replicating their familiar environment as closely as possible. I make it a point to provide ample affection, attention, and companionship to keep pets happy and emotionally fulfilled during my care sessions. Overall, my approach to pet care revolves around providing a nurturing and loving environment that meets the individual needs of each furry friend.
“Ashley was an impeccable sitter for my kitties while I was travelling for 2 weeks and if you’re looking for a pet sitter, no need to look any further. I would 100% recommend her! I had a last-minute change of plans and she was super accommodating. She did a phenomenal job bonding with and taking care of my cats and you can tell she really cares. She also sent pictures and updates which was really helpful while I was so far away.”
About: My three years of experience have taught me that every dog possesses a unique personality and set of needs. I prioritize your pet's comfort and happiness by treating them as if they were my own. My approach centers on maintaining a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine, whether that involves strict adherence to dietary schedules or managing high-energy play. I hold certifications in Experience with senior pets and Experience with special needs pets.

I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to provide reliable, consistent walks and plenty of exercise, attention, and care. Animals have always been a part of my family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. My childhood dog lived to be 15 years old, and I was there to help care for him throughout his life, especially in his senior years when he needed extra support. He was truly my best friend and taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and attentive care. Today, I care for my own dog and cat every day by feeding them, giving them attention, and making sure they are happy and healthy. I walk my dog before and after work and throughout the day as needed, and I enjoy spending quality time playing with both my dog and cat. I have a genuine love for animals, but dog walking is something I especially enjoy. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities, and I will treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets.
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels.

“Susan provided outstanding drop-in care for my dog, exceeding all expectations. It’s clear Susan doesn’t just treat this as a job—she cares deeply about animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy, compassionate sitter. Thank you, Susan!”
“Brandi was an excellent sitter for our dog for 8 visits while our family was on vacation. Our pup Hamlin enjoyed her visits and company each day. Thank you again and will recommend you to any other customer needing any dog sitting. 😁”
“Alexis came through last minute on a holiday and did a great job taking care of our 3 month old pup. She got to our home early, listened to all our instructions, and handed our house back in one piece lol.”
About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life growing up, I've had a few years of experience with cats both at home and taking care of roommates' pets. I've participated in dog training classes growing up, so I have good knowledge from that. I'm currently working part-time, so I generally have 3 to 4 days a week open, and live right on the trolley line in West Philadelphia, so I have decent range. I like to make sure I know what all the animal is eating, and try to stray from that as little as possible. As far as boarding goes, I have a small studio apartment, so I have very limited options there.
“Victoria is a very attentive sitter with great communication! My cat had a great time with her and I received many photos of her throughout her visits. Would 100% book again!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been something I truly enjoy. I have hands-on experience training my own pets, including teaching my dog to walk off-leash and my cat to sit on command! I believe the best training comes from patience, consistency, positive reinforcement, and, of course, a little fun. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel like part of the family while giving their owners peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I work in the early mornings but I also make my own schedule so I'm able to accommodate most requests. Afternoons and evenings are typically best. I have a large fenced in yard and two dogs of my own along with a cat. I'm able to crate any dog that needs it and have multiple floors if the animals need to be separated.
“Eve did an excellent job cat sitting for me over a long holiday weekend. She paid attention to all the instructions and sent some great photos. I would definitely book her again!”
“Hannah was fantastic with our pup Leo! After our second dog had to spend a weekend in the emergency room, she was very flexible and accommodating to switch up the schedule unexpectedly and took very good care of our boy when he was home alone and needed extra love! We came home to a very happy pup :)”

I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to make sure their pet receives consistent and reliable care. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I make sure food, water, doors, leashes, and the environment are secure, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level. I’m respectful of both the pet and the owner’s home, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos while they’re in my care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Drexel Hill
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rachel was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and caring with both our dog and cats. She followed our instructions perfectly, arrived exactly when requested, and did an excellent job taking care of all our pets. Rachel was dependable, punctual, respectful, and genuinely kind to our animals. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pets. We will absolutely use her again!
We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Breanna! She has known Harper since we moved to Media three years ago, and over that time, she has become such a constant, caring presence in our lives. She has followed us through one house move and even two pregnancies, always showing Harper the same incredible level of love and attention. Breanna goes so far above and beyond what you could ever expect from a dog walker. Her updates and notes show just how closely she pays attention to Harper and how genuinely invested she is in her well-being. We always feel completely confident knowing Harper is in her care. And somehow, she manages to make our lives a little easier, too. She’ll bring in our mail and packages, and on more than one occasion, she’s even put away a loaf of bread I accidentally left sitting on the counter after a hectic morning with my two boys. Breanna is reliable, kind, attentive, trustworthy, and truly treats Harper like her own. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog with their whole heart. Harper absolutely adores her, and so do we!
Madeline was fantastic for caring for our dog Mason. We had a great meet and greet and she brought treats that Mason instantly fell in love. Madeline provided great progress reports and dropped in on Mason at the scheduled times. We appreciate her care and attention she gave Mason and will book her again!
This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!

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 Drexel Hill 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 .

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 .
