“Peter took wonderful, attentive care of my two Cats, dropping in for an hour each day to play, pet, groom, tidy-up, and keep them company while I was away. Peter is comfortable, friendly, funny, and made my first Rover experience incredibly easy & pleasant!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I was always the one to clean up after them and ensure they had new toys and a clean space to enjoy. I am currently working part time and off Fridays. I would like to earn some extra cash to continue growing my daughters savings so she can get a good education. I have a fenced in yard. I currently have 3 dogs and a fish and a toddler. When walking my dogs, I usually take all 3 and make sure I am aware of my surroundings due to have frenchies I am always extra cautious.
“Chelsea has been such a wonderful addition to our regular schedule ! She is friendly, reliable, timely, and detail oriented. She promptly fills us in on any important happenings throughout her visits. Most importantly she takes such good care of our Sadie girl, and we are so thankful 🙂”
About: Hi! I’m Kyra, and I’m a passionate, dependable animal lover who treats every pet like family. I bring patience, responsibility, and lots of positive energy into everything I do - including caring for your pets! I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I understand that every pet has their own needs, routines, and quirks. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with some extra cuddles, I’m happy to match their vibe and make them feel safe and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m attentive, communicative, and will always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and give them all the care (and belly rubs!) they deserve! 🐾 I’m a full-time teacher, so my availability is most consistent in the afternoons, evenings, weekends, the summer time, and school breaks. On weekdays, I’m typically available after school for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I have more flexibility on weekends and can often accommodate a variety of times. During the school year, I stick to a reliable routine and will always communicate clearly about my availability. Over holidays and breaks, my schedule opens up even more, allowing for extended care if needed! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to ensure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and always keep a close eye on pets during walks and visits. I follow all instructions carefully. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific routines and I make sure pets are in a safe, clean environment at all times. I also believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind. I treat every pet like they’re my own; with lots of love, attention, and care!

“We cannot thank Amber enough for helping out with our pets while we were away. We have a very nervous puppy so we didn’t want to board him outside our home. Amber came over every day to let them out and feed them. She took our pups on walks and even our shy kitty started creating her at the door when she arrived. We will definitely be using Amber again since she’s so patient and kind to our pets!”

About: Hi! My name is Joan. I am recently retired and live on a farm. I have had dogs most of my life and have felt the passion to start dog sitting after losing our 15 yr old beloved dog fairly recently. I sure miss having furry four legged ones around to share my love for dogs, and want to be able to love on yours as I would my own.

Potty breaks and play time will be frequent, with living on a farm we will be sure and have plenty of walking and running space for your pup. I live on a tucked off the road farm with plenty of acreage to run and play. Our farm is not a working farm, meaning we have no farm animals on the property. I have never crated any of my dogs, therefore I would not be crating yours unless of course you ask me to and provide the crate.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Emmaus
This was our first time booking with Kelly, and she was great with Barney! They hit it off the first time they met, and it was obvious that she loves animals. She kept us informed when she was stopping over to see him and sent us a picture. I will definitely book with her again!
We know our girl is very focused on keeping ‘her pack’ complete. When one or both of us are out, she often watches the door waiting for our return. From the pix and report, it seems Dani did an excellent job of keeping her calm with companionship and comfort during her visit. I’m sure it was a welcomed break for Summer during our absence. It’s good to know we have a person we can feel comfortable with if we have to leave Summer for an extended time.
Kelly is SO wonderful with my pup! I had her stop in to feed my xl Am Bully puppy while I was away at work during the day, and my pup is now obsessed with her! He brings her a toy when she comes in! She also sends me cute pics of him throughout the time she’s here and is sure to follow his feeding instructions. I’m looking to hire her again when work picks back up! Fab!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Emmaus is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $37 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 2,762 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Emmaus. 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.
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 Emmaus 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 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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Emmaus with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Emmaus. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
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.
