About: Ever since I was young, I’ve had an overwhelming love for dogs. Because my mom was allergic, I couldn't have one in my house growing up, so around age 10 I started going to my neighbor's house daily just to spend time with their Golden Retriever, Ginger. I played with her, trained her, and we even entered a local dog show together. That early experience gave me a lifelong passion for giving dogs the active, fulfilling lives they deserve. For years, neighbors, friends, and coworkers have trusted me to care for, walk, and sit their dogs. I have hands-on experience with all kinds of routines, from multi-day home sitting to daily drop-ins, and I genuinely enjoy every moment of it. When your dog is with me, they will receive undivided attention, patience, and love just like they're my own family. What I feel sets me apart: • Built for high-energy & athletic dogs: I live a very active outdoor lifestyle and love spending time in nature. If your dog needs long walks, runs, hikes, or never wants any downtime, I’m the walker for you. • Attentive and reliable: I will follow your home, feeding, and leash instructions very thoroughly, and I always prioritize safety and situational awareness on walks. • Detailed updates: You’ll receive prompt communication and great photo updates all the time so you know your dog is having a blast. One more thing to add, I don’t care if your dog isn’t trained, or if they're the craziest dog in the world, or if they jump, or if they weigh 140 pounds of pure muscle, I can guarantee we will get along and have a good time. As a college student with in-person classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have wide-open, dedicated availability throughout Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and full weekends. On my class days and during the couple of weekday evenings when I teach tennis clinics, I plan my dog walks and drop-in visits around those specific blocks. This setup gives me substantial, predictable chunks of free time throughout the week for morning outings, midday check-ins, and extended weekend care. I’m punctual, organized with my calendar, and happy to coordinate a routine that aligns with your dog’s needs. Safety for your pet is obviously every pet owner’s number one priority, which makes it mine as well when your pet is in my care. All instructions for anything whether it be for your household or for your pet that are given to me will always be followed through with. Also, when your dog is on a walk with me, I can guarantee their safety. I have walked so many dogs in my life, and I know that there is never a moment during a walk where safety isn’t the number one priority, with fun being second of course. Lastly, if I am caring for your pet in at your place of residence, I will always be respectful and safe.
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.
“Abby was great to work with! Her communication was amazing and she sent pictures of Bentley and kept me up to date with everything. She took excellent care of Bentley as well as my house. She played with him and took him for a walk even though it was cold and windy. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”

About: I have had dogs and all sorts of pets in my house my whole life. I have experience with dogs of all types and ages from training puppies only a couple months old to caring for very old dogs.

“From the moment we met Rebekah, we knew she was the perfect fit. She is kind, personable, incredibly trustworthy, and pays attention to every detail. She took exceptional care of our two fur babies , our koi pond, our birds, garden and our home, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Every day she sent thoughtful updates and photos, which meant so much to us. She also noticed and handled little things around the house without ever being asked, keeping us informed and resolving issues whenever she could. When we returned home, everything was spotless, well cared for, and our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better house and pet sitter. Rebecca is truly outstanding, and we recommend her without hesitation. We will absolutely be using her again!”

“Elizabeth is excellent!! She showed up on time and is a great communicator. She took great photos of our dog and even brushed his teeth! He’s got a special condition that requires daily brushing. He also likes to wake up super early and she did everything to accommodate him and kept our house spotless! We will have her back again! :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Exton
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
We had a wonderful experience with our dog walker! They took exceptional care of both my dog and my daughter's dog, treating them with so much kindness, patience, and attention. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in caring, capable hands. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly have a genuine love for animals. Both dogs were happy, well cared for, and excited to see them each visit. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!
This is the second time we’ve relied on Marissa for dog sitting / house sitting and she does an excellent job! Marissa is an excellent communicator, asks greats questions, and follows all instructions. She takes such great care of our dog Velveeta and she sends regular updates and photos. Our home was spotless when we came back from a week away. Thank you, Marissa!

FAQs for House Sitting - Exton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Exton on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,300 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Exton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
