“Paige did an excellent job sitting for our Belgian Malinois (Hoobie) and our Chocolate Labrador (Bella). Paige was timely and efficient, spending much time playing with the dogs and making sure they were comfortable. Paige had come by several days before to meet the dogs, and when she showed up the day of sitting the dogs were thrilled to see her! Handling two dogs at once (especially a Malinois!) can be challenging, but Paige made it look easy, you can tell she loves dogs and all animals! We highly recommend Paige, and will be asking her to dog sit again soon!”
About: For most of my life, I’ve been taking care of animals of varying sizes and energy levels. Many of these were shelter rescues, so I’m used to animals with different needs. I’ve also had two years of experience with walking and caring for dogs at the BVSPCA. I asked my dog for a comment and she said, “woof woof,” which I take to mean “very good.” I’m currently at home from college for the summer. I love meeting new animals, so I’ll definitely make sure my schedule works around taking care of your pets! From my own experience, pet sitting can be a very hectic experience which is why I always pay attention to the details. The two things I say most often, when I’m with my dog are, “that’s a tomato… don’t you dare eat it,” and “yo, get out of the bathroom.” Whether I’m walking or feeding my dog, I make sure her environment is safe, stressfree, and filled with love.
“Debra took exceptional care of our babies just like they were her own. When we came home they were so relaxed which is everything we hope for when we have to leave them. Thank you!!”
“Lauren was so great with Sadie. Very attentive and kept me well informed! It was a comforting knowing she was in good hands while I was away! I will definitely be requesting Lauren again!”
“this was my first time using rover and i was nervous, but joanna made the process so easy! she is a very nice person and respectful house guest. she even got my dog to walk nicely on her leash! i was so impressed! i would definitely would recommend joanna to anyone”
“Jocelyn is an absolute gem! Our fur babies were so loved and well cared for, and we came home to a spotless house. She was incredibly communicative and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life, from cats to dogs. I love animals with my whole heart and love being around them! I have watched my family and families friends pets. I am currently enrolled at West Chester University so pet care can fit into my weekly routine after my classes are over which is usually around mid day. Pet care can also fit into my weekly routine when I am not working at my part time job. In my clients home I will make sure I have an eye on the pet at all times and make sure they get everything they need. While also making sure they have a fun time with extra snuggles!
“Matthew took good care of our very large, reactive dog while we were away. He sent us photos daily and was good at communicating if he had any questions. We will definitely be asking Matthew to watch our pup next time we go away.”
“Faith was sweet and understanding with our pain in the *ss dog. Took her for plenty of walks and fed her on time. Thanks Faith, we will book you again if you'll have us! Xoxo-Ripley”
“We're so grateful to Katherine for watching our Aussie! He warmed up to her immediately and she took great care of him and our home. She was on time and sent pics which we loved. ❤️❤️”
About: Your pet won't just be supervised—they will be completely folded into my daily routine, receiving constant affection, belly rubs, and inclusion in family life. My experience with animals isn't just a job; it’s a lifelong calling. For over a decade, I have cared for a diverse family of pets, mastering the art of reading their subtle body language and anticipating their needs. I understand that every dog has a unique personality—from the high-energy pup who needs an exhausting game of fetch to the quiet senior who wants a gentle hand on their head. My hands-on experience has taught me how to establish instant trust, calm anxious minds, and provide a nurturing environment where pets don't just stay, but truly thrive. As a work-from-home entrepreneur, my schedule is entirely my own—which means your pet is never an afterthought, but a central part of my day. Because I control my hours, I don’t leave for a 9-to-5. Instead, my workspace is shared with your pet, offering them a constant, comforting human presence that drastically reduces separation anxiety. My daily routine is intentionally built around natural breaks that perfectly mirror a dog's need for stimulation, affection, and rest. I transform my home into a peaceful, tail-wagging sanctuary where your pet is treated as an honored family member, not a guest. Because I work from home, my environment is calm, highly predictable, and entirely secure.
“Five stars, no hesitation. Devin house-sat for my two three-year-old dogs for 48 hours and gave them endless attention, love, and exercise. He kept me updated throughout, and I came home to find the dogs and the house exactly as requested. Dependable, communicative, and a true dog person. I'll gladly book him again.”
About: I’ve cared for many different animals of all ages and varieties, gaining hands-on experience with walking, bathing, pet sitting, and more. I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique needs and personality, and I always focus on providing attentive, gentle, and reliable care to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well looked after. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, with dedicated time each morning and evening for feeding, walks, play, and attentive companionship always. In my home or clients home I provide a safe calm environment where pets receive attentive care including feeding playtime grooming exercise and constant supervision and affection daily.
About: HI! My name is Alisha and the only thing I love more than a good pun is a good doggie! I have been a lover of all animals since as early as I can remember. I am very active and love bringing the pups out on my runs and exploring nature together. I am patient and love cuddles and kisses, but am a stickler for manners, rules, and boundaries. I have experience with deaf dogs, potty training, and crate training. My schedule is very flexible right now for any service you are in need of and have reliable transportation. I hope I can meet your doggie soon so I can have another new four-legged friend! There is a lot of flexibility in my current work schedule, so that means I have pretty open availability to supervise, play, and cuddle with your baby!! In my house home pets are part of the family. They deserve all the love and attention to give them the very best life possible!
“Paige has house sat for our animals twice now, and she has been fantastic! The communication and care she gives them has always been a huge relief when we go away on trips.”

Paige was amazing with my dogs! She took fantastic care of them and kept me updated along the way with funny stories, and pictures. My female dog takes a long time to warm up to people and fell in love with Paige immediately. Her energy was perfect for my dogs and I would highly recommend her for any boarding needs!!!
This was our third time using Mary for dog sitting at our house. We trust her wholeheartedly with our dog Goose and when we return our home is always tidy and our dog is happy. I think he has a wonderful time with her and she provides many picture updates. Thanks Mary!
Five stars, no hesitation. Devin house-sat for my two three-year-old dogs for 48 hours and gave them endless attention, love, and exercise. He kept me updated throughout, and I came home to find the dogs and the house exactly as requested. Dependable, communicative, and a true dog person. I'll gladly book him again.
Casie and her husband took great care of Perry while I was out of the country for a week. They even took the time to have a meet and greet and make sure everyone was comfortable before he stayed with them. Casie was super responsive and provided excellent updates every day.
We are so thankful to Nessa for taking care of our dogs. We found her on very short notice. She went out of her way to. Take a meet and greet possible. We were gone on vacation for 4 days and Nessa took amazing care of our dogs and house. She sent us cute pictures and kept us updated. She genuinely cares about dogs and the people she is helping, it’s very obvious she is a very kind and caring person. We can’t wait to have her back

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 Exton 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 Exton 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.
Tip: 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 Exton 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
