“Rozz was a great sitter! She was very patient with our anxious dog and let him get comfortable at his pace. Also stayed in touch with updates and pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Amy stayed with our two golden retrievers that we rescued about 9 months ago. We try to be very careful with who we leave them with as they are still adjusting to life with us. Amy did a wonderful job with them, sent me pictures and updates and kept them on their normal routine with walks and feeding. She's very conscientious and wants to follow all instructions. We will definitely use her again!”
“Faith was wonderful with our pup! She was very communicative, sent pictures, and kept Evie company whole we were out for late night plans. We will definitely book her again.”
“Emily is amazing. My dog can be extremely stubborn when she doesn’t want to go out but Emily was undeterred. Winnie also hates thunderstorms and there were several while Emily was watching her and Emily was so attentive to keeping Winnie calm during the storms. Emily also sent great photos and regular updates. I felt super at ease knowing Winnie was in Emily’s hands!”
About: Whether it’s being a dog walker, foster-pet parent, or an owner, I’ve been around animals all my life! I can match any pets energy, whether they want to zoom around a park for hours, go for a nice slow stroll, or just want a bunch of pets. I’m comfortable working all sizes and ages as well. I work part time as a bartender, mostly on the weekends and nights, so I have lots of free time during the week and during the day for your pet! I’m a very clean and organized person. I’m very much about leaving things as they were found, listening to instructions, and remaining attentive to the lil fur baby’s needs!
“Absolutely amazing and reliable dog sitter!! She kept my Sasha very happy and sent plenty of photos keeping me updated. She also left my apartment spotless and went above and beyond. Would definitely use again.”
“We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.”
“Ximena was a great communicator during our trip sending check ins every day with photos of how our dog was doing. 100% would use Ximena again in the future.”
“Alyssa is an amazing sitter. She is kind and thorough and clearly loves caring for pets. What more could you ask for? She left my house just as she found it and my dog and cat were clearly comfortable and happy after being with her. I look forward to hiring her again soon.”
“Calvin took outstanding care of our dog, Toast, while we were out of town for a weekend. He is incredibly kind, communicative, and sent a ton of photos/ videos during the stay. He left our home in outstanding condition and perhaps more importantly, Toast seemed to really like Calvin. We’d highly recommend Calvin!”
About: I love dogs and will make sure your pup feels right at home while they’re with me! I go above and beyond to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, welcomed, and cared for. Your dog will be treated like family and get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home, so I’m able to give your pet plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day while you’re away. I also love sending updates and pictures, so you can see how your furry friend is doing and feel a little closer to them while you’re gone! While staying with me, your dog will have their own comfortable space where they can relax and feel at home. I also live right next to a park, so they’ll have plenty of opportunities for walks, fresh air, and playtime. I’ll also provide toys to keep them happy, entertained, and having fun during their stay!
“She did a great job with our Bear! She was super sweet the whole time and sent us some videos while we were away. Bear was well taken care of and loved. Naomi stayed in our home which we were very comfortable doing! Would definitely recommend for future references:)”
About: Several years under my belt of taking care of your best pals! I know how important it is to leave your pet in the right person’s hands. I’d love to be that person for you. I’ve encountered all kinds of pets: • dogs who weigh as much as me 💪🏽😍 • pets needing oral or topical medication • anxious COVID puppers • sweet misunderstood dogs requiring muzzles • 16-year old seniors needing a little more compassion • puppies and kittens who need tiring out 😅 • so many others in between! Most of my positive reviews mention the great pictures I take of your pet (I’ll do most anything to get them at the right angle!), how much sincere love I shower on your pal, and my general decorum in your home. I don’t have a dog or cat of my own (yet!), but have two adorable bunnies at home 🐰😍🐰 I’m currently working part-time and am very flexible both during the day, and on weekends. Happy to work around your schedule, and am currently available for last-minute requests. I’ll generally follow your guidance based on your pet’s needs. Happy to feed them, play with them, and go for walks as needed. Whatever they prefer!
“Margo was such a good sitter. She came and met my pup the day before since they hadn’t met before. Took the time to ask all the questions on his habits, schedule, and medications. Even though I needed her pretty early in the morning she had no problems with being on time. The videos and pics throughout the day was a very nice touch.”
“Mary was absolutely amazing and took really good care of my Furbaby. This was our first experience with house sitting, using someone who wasn't a family member. However, from the first video chat, we knew that Mary was the best person for the job. She has such a sweet and calming demeanor, which helped to ease all of our nervousness. Mary sent us daily updates and pictures, which showed how happy and at ease my dog was. Mary went above and beyond and we are forever grateful to her. Mary is officially a part of our family and we will definitely be using her for all of our future trips.”
“Syd was a wonderful house/pug sitter, they were an extremely good communicator and a dedicated caretaker of our (elderly & challenging) dogs and our home. They were lovely to work with, and we would 1000% recommend them and hope we are able to book them again in the future. 11/10 stars :) Thank you Syd!!”
“Catherine was amazing!! The dogs loved her and felt so comfortable with her while we were away. She was right on time, very neat and really went the extra mile in straightening up before leaving! We will definitely be using her again❤️.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Lansdowne
not my first rover experience but the first as a homeowner which added a layer of trust needed on top of care for 2 senior dogs. olivia was wonderful and attentive to all the directions we left and took great care of both boys even with all their quirks. before leaving on the last day she went above and beyond to help secure the house during a nor'easter which was much appreciated. my only "feedback" is i hope she knows there's no such thing as TOO much puppy content when sending updates to crazy dog moms
Angela is wonderful! She’s professional, friendly, prompt and neat. I received great updates and pics all 5 days of travel and she went out of her way to secure our home during an unexpected N’easter. She secured all small object…plants,umbrella’s, wreaths etc and placed them in our garage then she got them all back out when the storm was over!! Just like having a family member stay at your home. Oh…she even dropped Lucy at the groomers for me! Hopefully she’ll be available the next time we travel. Thanks Angela!
Matin has been the absolute best sitter we could have asked for. She is so wonderful with our pups, especially our anxious boy who was in love with her within 24 hours. She is patient, calm, communicative - everything you could want when entrusting someone in your home with your pets. I cannot recommend Matin more and look forward to working with her again!
Elizabeth was great! I have two German Shepherds, and one of them is more high-maintenance and requires medication and a consistent routine. In the past, I’ve had a hard time finding sitters who truly understand the importance of sticking to their schedule and making sure everything is done correctly. Elizabeth was responsible, communicative, and very attentive to their needs. I felt confident knowing they were in good hands, and she kept me updated throughout their stay. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth and would happily have her care for my dogs again!
SaraGrace was a great sitter for our sweet pit mix boy. He’s 2.5 years old and has a lot of energy, so we were really grateful that SaraGrace could support his typical walking schedule and take him to the park for some play. She was also very flexible with our schedule when our plans changed mid-booking due to the weather, and we returned earlier than expected. Definitely recommend SaraGrace for your pets!
Jianee was absolutely amazing with our four dogs! It’s not easy taking care of four dogs at once, but Jianee handled everything with so much patience, care, and genuine love for each of them. From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands. She was responsible, attentive, dependable, and treated our dogs like they were her own. It gave us such peace of mind while we were away knowing that they were getting plenty of love and attention. We came home to four happy, well-cared-for dogs, and that says everything! Jianee went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend her and will absolutely have her watch our dogs again!
What a pleasure it was to meet Amanda and have her stay in our “home”. We are traveling and Amanda came to the campground (with just two days notice!) and watched our three pups. She walked them, cared for them, and shared updates with us. She gave us suggestions on what to see in Philadelphia. We were impressed with her kindness. We highly recommend Amanda for your pets!
Abby was fantastic, as always! She stayed at our house for 10 days with our two pups. She took both dogs on walks daily, administered medication, and expertly cleaned our hound dog’s gross ears! She went above and beyond by cuddling with both dogs at night and making their days feel as normal as possible :) Great communication throughout the stay. She took great care of our house. Very happy to have found a great sitter.
Bahiyyah was great. She took such wonderful care of my puppy and older cat. She did an amazing job keeping up with the puppy and exercising her. I was able to enjoy my vacation without stressing about my girls. Highly recommend Bahiyyah if you're looking for a patient and kind sitter.
Kristina and her daughter were wonderful! They. Were very attentive and communicated through out their stay. I was very nervous leaving the dogs as usually they stay with family but Kristina put our worries at ease and everything went great! Would highly recommend!

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 East Lansdowne 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 East Lansdowne 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 East Lansdowne 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.
