“I can’t put into words how wonderful it is to work with Niki, she is so caring, thoughtful, responsive, and responsible. I highly recommend to anyone considering working with Niki to chose her as your pet sitter. I have gone away a few times and she took care of my 2.5 yr old cat, and he absolutely adores her. He is usually distant with people but he is very happy with her.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years and have been around all kinds of dogs my whole life. I’m experienced with different temperaments, routines, and care needs, and I always provide patient, attentive care. I mainly have experience with older dogs (1 year to senior) and don’t shy away from the many needs dogs require in their twilight years. I primarily have been dog sitting for a close friend with two beagle mixes and can tell you they gave me enough experience to be able to handle the high energy and stubbornness that comes with their breed. I’m a huge animal lover so it’s all worth it in the end when our furry friends are happy and thriving! I work a full time job 3:30 to midnight so my hours of availability are mornings until 2PM and I have off on weekends currently. I am currently looking for other growth opportunities so my availability will be increasing in the near future I take great care in respecting the homes of pets and owners when I’m providing care. I strive to prevent messes when possible and make sure pets are fed, watered and their spaces are well maintained and home owners spaces are left the same or better than when they departed.
“Mike is great with Sapphire! I always get feedback and pictures every visit, and Mike follows all instructions to a T. My dog feels safe when I'm away because of this special care she is getting and it is greatly appreciated. Perla & Michael C. are #1 on the Rover app!”
About: Hi! I’m Jen, a lifelong dog lover with a soft spot for rescues and senior pups. I recently said goodbye to my own dog, Eric, a golden mix I rescued at one year old and was lucky to have for almost 15 years. Caring for him through every stage of life gave me deep experience, patience, and a genuine understanding of what dogs need to feel safe, loved, and happy. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, companionship, and timely care, never rushed or left alone for long stretches. I truly miss having a dog around for daily walks, company, and that quiet joy dogs bring to everyday life, and pet sitting has been a wonderful way to share that love again. I’m active and enjoy walks that match your dog’s energy level, whether that’s a relaxed stroll or something a bit more adventurous. I also volunteer with a nonprofit called Hauling Hopes, which has further strengthened my comfort with different dog personalities and needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m attentive to feeding, walks, playtime, and medications, and I closely monitor behavior and wellbeing. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, pets get plenty of attention, companionship, and timely potty breaks. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Nina was wonderful! Kept me updated the whole time and sent great pictures. I could tell my cats were well taken care of by the way they greeted me at the door. Will be working with Nina again!!”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter who loves working with both dogs and cats. I have experience with dogs of all sizes—from small breeds to large, high-energy pups—as well as both trained and untrained dogs. I’m patient, adaptable, and comfortable handling different personalities, whether your dog needs structure, extra guidance, or just a fun, active walk. I also have a soft spot for cats and understand that each one has their own unique personality. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable while keeping their routine consistent. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and energy level to make sure they feel happy, secure, and cared for. I’m dependable, communicative, and will keep you updated so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and lots of care! 🐾 As a full-time teacher, I bring consistency, responsibility, and care into everything I do—including pet care! During the school year, I’m available for weekend care anytime and Fridays, 4PM and later! I am also available during school breaks! Please check my calendar for consistently updated availability! I love starting or ending a pet’s day with exercise, attention, and routine, so they feel happy and cared for while you’re busy. My schedule is reliable, and I always communicate clearly so you know your pet is in good hands. I’m here to help keep your pets happy, active, and well cared for! 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I provide in-home pet sitting and walks so your pet can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment while you’re away. Being in their own home helps pets feel secure, and I work hard to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’m dependable, respectful of your space, and committed to building trust with both you and your pet. I follow all care instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, walk routines, or special preferences. I also prioritize safety on every walk by staying alert, using secure handling, and adapting to your pet’s needs and behavior. You can expect clear communication and regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every home with care and every pet like family, creating a calm, safe, and positive experience from start to finish.
“I was going to be longer then expected and didn’t want to leave my new puppy in her crate for so long. I reached out to Emma last minute to see if she was able to take my new puppy out for a walk/potty and she was able. Emma was great and very kind. She sent me pictures and update. She brought peace of mind and I didn’t feel bad leaving Cookie so long. Emma thank you for your help.”
“We absolutely loved having Christine watch our doggies! 🐾 She was so caring, attentive, and treated him like he was her own. She kept us updated with pictures and messages after the visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about him, and we came home to a very happy pup! ❤️ We couldn’t recommend her enough and will definitely be using her again in the future! 🐶💕”
“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!!”
About: I have had pets since childhood and currently own a two-year-old German Shepherd who is both affectionate and energetic. Caring for her has given me hands-on experience in handling, training, and providing attentive care for large dogs. I am passionate about working with dogs and would be delighted to provide the same level of care and attention to yours. I currently work during the day; however, I maintain a flexible remote schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care needs, including walks and outdoor breaks, at various times throughout the day. This flexibility enables me to support pet owners with more demanding or less adaptable schedules. I have fenced in yard and plenty of space for play time! I also have a patio where pets can relax out of the sun
About: Growing up my family had 3 dogs. I’ve moved out on my own and now have a dog of my own. I love dogs and seeing them happy! I currently work from home which gives me a lot of flexibility to take your dogs out and about. I am free most mornings and always during the evening I currently live in apartment so my dog never leaves without me by his side. I love playing with my dog at the park or taking him on walks during the day.
“Alex is AMAZING with my dogs. I believe that the dogs are loving her more than me!! LOL.. She goes above and beyond with my dogs and I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter!!”
“Guinevere was fantastic! Great communication, with pictures of my boy playing and being cuddled just like I'd have done. I was worried because I had never left my cat before. Guinevere made sure that she took care of him just as I would and when I got home, my cat was a happy boy! If you're looking for a pet sitter who cares for your fur babies just as you would, Guinevere is the one!”
“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.”
“Valynn is very professional, punctual and trustworthy! She was so wonderful with my cat, and she took wonderful care of him! She was very thoughtful and respectful. I would highly recommend her.”

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
