“Courtney was incredible with my cat Luna. She sent us pictures every day of her while we were away. She was also very communicative about Luna. She let me know what they played with or if her food was looking a little low. Courtney truly cared for my sweet Luna and I will be booking with her in the future.”
“Amanda was so incredible checking in on our girl. She gave great info every time she went over and made us feel so comfortable while we were away. She even helped try and reset our WiFi when it went down for us. She is super nice and we’ve already rebooked her to watch our girl on an upcoming trip!”
“Amanda was perfect! She was very reliable and flexible and respectful of our home. Most importantly, she was good to our boys and gave them the care and attention they needed. They are pretty attached to us (follow us around the house all day), but when we arrived home after 6 days away it was like we were just gone for the afternoon 😻😻”
“We are repeating with Marilyn, she is just great! She has real love for the animals and we know our cat will be well cared for with her in our absence. She is our main go to for pet sitting 😊😊”
“I was very pleased with Keri's care for our two cats. I appreciated that she took notes during our meet and greet about what we wanted and while we were gone she did everything that we requested, including refilling our backyard bird feeder. She sent notes and pictures that documented what she did and how our cats were doing.”
“My weird cats and I adore Allie. I volunteered at a couple of shelters / rescues and truly have some quirky cats, but Allie acted like they were as normal as they come. She was not fazed by their individual eating preferences, oral meds, and sometimes cranky attitudes. Allie also sent daily updates with photos and I have not felt this at ease traveling in a very long time. I'm sure Allie is excellent with dogs, but if you are looking for someone who is amazing with cats, this is your sitter!”
“I have booked with Christina twice and she is great! I trust her with my babies. She got my one slow to trust cat to cuddle with her, which is the ultimate sign to me. I will definitely book with her in the future”
“We would have Jaclyn pet sit our cats any time. She is professional, courteous and responds quickly thru messages. We have 4 cats so that can be overwhelming but she made easy work of it all. Thank you again!”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient, and attentive approach to pet care. I focus on creating a safe, stress-free environment for pets while following their routines closely. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including puppies who need consistency and training reinforcement as well as senior pets who require gentler care, patience, and extra attention. I also make sure pet owners feel connected by providing regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit. I currently have a flexible schedule and am fully available during the summer, which allows me to provide reliable and consistent pet care throughout the week. I am able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and I am happy to work around your pet’s routine. I treat every pet like family and prioritize communication, providing regular updates, photos, and messages so you always feel connected and confident in their care. I provide pet care exclusively through walks and drop-in visits, allowing pets to remain comfortable in their own home and familiar environment. During each visit, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, refreshing water, litter box care (for cats), and any specific routines or medications. For dog walks, I prioritize safety at all times by using secure leashing, paying close attention to surroundings, and making sure your pet gets appropriate exercise based on their energy level and needs. For drop-in visits, I focus on providing attentive care, companionship, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. I treat every home with respect, ensuring it is left clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I also provide consistent updates with photos and messages so you always feel informed and connected to your pet. My goal is to give your pet reliable, safe, and stress-free care while giving you complete peace of mind.
“So glad to have found Lucy. The pictures made me feel so much better while I was away. My one cat can be very hesitant with new people so to see him eating and coming for attention really shows her caring talent.”
“Julia was amazing with our shy cats. They seemed to easily warm up to her and we love that she spent time hanging out with them. We’ll definitely use her again in the future.”
“Barb is the greatest and the best! We are always happy when she has an opening for us. The dog is calm and relaxed, and we get to see the walks she took while we were gone! Barb is flexible and patient with the dog and with us. Thanks, Barb!”
About: Hi! I’m Camille, and if there’s a dog at a party, that’s probably who I’m talking to. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal is different. Some pets want nonstop playtime, some want cuddles, and some prefer their space. I take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop in visit, or company while you’re away, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. Expect lots of updates, photos, and communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: a happy pet, a stress free owner, and plenty of tail wags along the way. 🐾💕 Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. As a server, I’m used to being active, managing my time efficiently, and staying attentive to the needs of others in a fast-paced environment. My work schedule gives me flexibility during certain parts of the day, allowing me to dedicate time to walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care is a natural fit for me. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household rules to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe in my care. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, I grew up with pets of all shapes and sizes and have been responsible for they’re care and well being since a young age. I’m a full time as stylist, however my schedule can be pretty flexible, I am often able to make adjustments in my schedule to make myself available to spend time with your pets! I am not able to bring pets into my own home at this time but I am happy to visit with them in their homes!
“Porsche did an excellent job with my cat. After a week away, i came home to a happy cat. She sent me a number of photographs while away and answered all my texts in detail. i highly recommend working with Porsche.”
About: I have taken care of dogs a lot throughout my life. I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood all the time. 4 years ago I got my own puppy and trained him. Now we walk around 5 miles everyday I walk my dog multiple times a day and I love to go on long walks. I have a waitressing job in the summer and I like to spend the rest of my days outside playing with dogs. I care for my puppy so much and I am always playing with him and never leaving him by himself. I make sure that he is always happy and healthy
About: I was the driving force for my family to get a puppy and I was his primary caretaker along with my little sister for years. I worked hard to house train him and teach him basic commands. And before he came into our lives, I took every chance to walk and care for the dogs of my friends and family. Looking forward to expanding my experience with your pup! I work remotely, doing data analysis and design, so I can and do work practically anywhere. Your crew will get all the attention and care they need! I’m never too busy for a belly rub or walk! My own pup that I grew up with really trained ME to know when to go for walks and when to play. So much so, that I find myself taking him out before his scheduled walks so we can both get some fresh air and exercise. He also instilled a diligence to make sure food and fresh water are always available!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Elkins Park
Jamilah took care of our 2 cats for several days while we were on vacation! She treated them (and our home) so well. We loved the pics she sent after each visit-one of our cats can be very shy, but she clearly loved Jamilah right away! She also made sure our picky senior cat ate all his meals, which put our minds at ease.
Courtney did a great job for us! We have two spoiled kitties and I have a long list of instructions for their care while we're away. That didn't phase Courtney and she followed them all to a tee. Our one cat who needs a pill every other day, proved elusive two times, but Courtney did try her hardest and spent extra time trying to coach her out of hiding. Courtney also went above and beyond by bringing in mail and removing trash on the last day. We really appreciate her attention to detail and care for our home and furry friends! Gave us total peace of mind to enjoy our trip.
Keri did an excellent job taking care of our two cats while we were away, along with watering our many plants. Everything was well cared for, and she sent us photos throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind knowing everything at home was in good hands. We’ll absolutely use Keri again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Daniel is a Cat Whisperer! I have not left my cats since they were born in my home over 5 years ago. I had no idea if they would even eat while I was away? Daniel's vibe is one of peace and compassion and he had matters well in hand! Even Mercy showed great progress; Daniel helped her overcome her inherent anxiety.
Lauren knocked my socks off like always. She treats my animals like they’re her own. I got constant text updates and beautiful pictures of my babies. I can tell that they were being well loved and taken care of, 10 out of 10 would recommend Lauren to anybody at any time.
Amanda is so great with animals. We have an extremely anxious cat that most other sitters never see, but came out for pets with her! Had she not taken pictures of the event, we probably wouldn't have believed it happened. She's responsible and accountable and we will definitely book Amanda again in the future.
Hadiya is wonderful! It's difficult to find someone you can trust with your fur babies and your home. As soon as we met Hadiya, we knew she was the right person. We have two shy kittens (other cat sitters had taken care of them for weeks at a time and never even saw them). But they warmed up to Hadiya almost instantly! We couldn't believe it. Hadiya is detailed oriented, reliable, thorough, and so sweet with our cats. She took the time to build their trust AND got all the care tasks done too. We can't recommend her enough.
Nikki was very responsive and took the time to come by for a meet-and-greet before the service began. She did a wonderful job caring for our two cats while we were away, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. We would absolutely book with her again in the future.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .

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 .
