About: I Love dogs, since my dog has passed away several years ago I enjoy pet sitting to fill the void. Animals are love. Your animal will be cared for and loved the way you would. We have a fenced in yard which your animal can play in and he will not be ignored or cooped up. We have had many dogs in the past but do not currently have one. Good with large dogs, or all sizes, really, Many people have trusted us with their dogs but now I am trying this service hoping it works well on all ends, it seems like a good idea. Your animal will be in a safe environment and you can get regular updates. Thank you for considering me. I am currently tele commuting working from home. Your dog won't be left alone for hours on end and will not be ignored. Usually home 7 days a week The yard is fenced in, and I have also been using an apple air tag as an extra level of security. Making sure your dog never gets away is the highest priority.
“Adriana, did a great job taking care of our 2 cats when we were away. She was reliable and provided detailed updates on how each of them were doing. Would definitely recommend her services.”
About: From 2022-2024 I worked at a dog training and boarding facility part-time in college and full-time in summers. Here I was trained in reading dog body language and mannerisms. Daily I did multiple cleanings of their spaces, fed meals, provided 1:1 playtime, and aided in giving medications. Since then I've been doing house sitting and dog walking for friends and family. I am experienced in giving meditations and working with puppies and geriatric dogs. I am currently a college student but I only have two in person classes and a part time job. I am able to come multiple times a day including early mornings and nights. I like to do a couple play times during the day and have time to settle at night before bedtime. I am able to perform any tasks necessary to keep your pet comfortable and on schedule.
“Tetiana was fabulous! She communicated prior to the check-ins to ensure she had all the details about the dogs covered. She followed all of our instructions, stayed the entire visit to play with the dogs, and sent updates and photos. At the end of the visit when she left she gave one final update on the dogs to let us know how they were throughout the trip. I came home to two happy puppies worth every penny! I would highly recommend her if you are I need of someone caring and detail oriented to look over your dogs.”
“Denise was so easy to work with and fit me in last minute. My dog really took to her and she doesn’t usually warm up very quickly. I would definitely recommend and use her again in the future”
“Melissa went above and beyond all of our expectations for her. We were contacted with pictures and text letting us know how our dog was doing each time she came to house. A++++. Fully recommend Melissa to anyone who needs a pet sitter. ”
“We've been so lucky to have found Brenna! Our fur babies genuinely light up when they see her, which tells us everything we need to know. It's such a relief to leave our pets in the hands of someone we truly trust — she treats them so special. If you're searching for someone special to care for your furry family members, we couldn't recommend Brenna more wholeheartedly. She's truly one of a kind! 🐾”
“Justina did an excellent job caring for our three cats while we were away. She provided frequent updates and amazing photos that gave us peace of mind and showed that our fur babies were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear she took the time to make sure they received plenty of attention and care during each visit. We came home to three happy cats and felt completely confident that they were in good hands while we were gone. We highly recommend Justina and will definitely be booking with her again in the future! 🐾💕”
About: I’ve taking care of many animals for the past 4 to 5 years including family and friends. I can handle any size, age, and breed. I currently am not working and have the whole morning, afternoon, and night to take care of your animal(s). As well my weekends are free! Your dogs safety is my main priority. When on walks I will be cautious of other animals, make sure the right equipment that is provided is used when walking your animal, and keep your pup in a safe and clean environment. When I drop in I will make sure your pup feels safe and comfortable, make sure your pup eats, drinks water, goes out, and gets treats, and everything is cleaned and locked up before leaving your pup and home.
“Jaydin was wonderful. She took the time to let all four of our cats feel comfortable. She also took care of our turtles and fish. She sent pics every day so we knew everything was ok. Definitely recommend!!!!”
“Nina did a great job taking care of my cats! I can tell they spent quality time with my cats while I was gone and sent great pictures. They are awesome at communicating and really go the extra mile!”
“Melissa did a great job for our family looking after our pup. She was available with very little notice and made sure she sent pictures. Communication was excellent. You can’t go wrong with reaching out to Melissa if you need someone to watch your pet. Thanks again!!!”
About: In addition to dog-sitting, I am available for house-sitting! If you don’t want to take time off from work to be home for a repair person’s visit or something similar, I work remotely and am happy to be there. I’ve been dog and house sitting periodically for seven years. I am patient with dogs and love them deeply. I can drive or walk them to parks or other places. I’ve worked with dogs from four-month-olds to 13-year-olds. I love house-sitting, dropping by and checking on pets, and walking dogs! I’ve worked with large, medium, and small dogs. I am thorough and detail-oriented. I am also organized and communicative. I have worked with dogs of different temperaments and breeds and love them all! I’m usually available most weekends and in the mornings and late afternoon/evenings during the week. I work remotely, so I can stay over or do drop-ins as requested! I take care of one family’s pups 2-3 times per week during the school year, but I can be flexible. I usually stay at my client’s home so their pets can stay where they’re comfortable! I ask for normal routines from my clients so I can follow those as much as possible.
“Janine is a dog whisperer! Our rescue dog has anxiety when it comes to meeting new people. Janine followed our detailed instructions when meeting our dog. Before long our dog was feeling comfortable with her. Janine is patient, kind and her love for dogs is obvious. She showed up as requested, taking great care of our dog. We will be sure to contact Janine again in the future!!”
“Yanitza spent time with our highly anxious chihuahua and he was very comfortable with her right away. He seemed to really enjoy her visit! Would definitely recommend her! And will ask her to sit with Finley again!”

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!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Emmaus stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
