About: I grew up with dogs of all ages, and have a special place in my heart for senior dogs! I discovered my love for cats later in life and have enjoyed getting to know how to interact with them. I work from home, and enjoy getting out of the house to visit and take walks. I can do any time of day as well! Whether you have a fenced in yard, a dog who loves adventure, or a major couch potato, I can adjust to your pets environment and give them lots of love.
About: Grew up with dogs. Haven’t had as many dogs as cats as they required more attention than cats and Rover didn’t exist when I was younger. I had 3 dogs in my young adult life over the course of 30 years. Currently we have a 9 year old pittie rescue and she is well cared for. I’m recently retired so my schedule is very flexible. Rover has made it possible for us to travel with peace of mind that our pets would be cared for. So I figured it would be a good fit as a retirement job and now I can give others the same peace of mind. The retired lifestyle has left me very flexible for going to people’s homes to help with their cat and dog maintenance while they travel. Currently not looking to offer in home services.
About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve just recently introduced a cat into our dog family and it’s been such a pleasure caring for my babies. I would love to do the same for someone else! I am available at the moment to work any day weekday and weekend, I currently have no restrictions to when I can not do it. I enjoy doing enrichment activities with the animals and playing with them to stimulate their mind. I also like to cuddle with my dogs whenever they want chill time.
About: I’ve been lucky to take care of dogs my whole life. I currently have some time off of work, and would love to spend some of that time giving some love, care, and exercise to your pets! Please reach out with any questions and I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently am pretty open as I search for a new career. I have two dogs that I love at home (both named Hank LOL), but am available any time during the day. In our home, our dogs are our world! I would treat yours just the same. We would discuss what your pet needs (exercise, snuggles, medication, companionship, all of the above).
About: My family has had dogs since before I was born! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and know how to take care of fur babies of all ages :) Almost four years ago I adopted my first cat. Fast forward to today, I am now a mother of two orange special needs kitties. They are my world 🌎 ❤️🐾 I currently work part time and go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On school days, class starts at 9 and I will have an hour and a half between classes to let a pet out to go to the bathroom, feed them, or give them medication. Then I have another class from 1-3. After that, I will be totally free to assist any pets. I also work part time 3-4 days when I do not have school. These are usually 6-8 hour shifts, but I can adjust feedings/walking/medication administration around these times. And when in doubt, I have several well regarded Rover friends that are willing to help out on my longer shifts, with client approval. :-) I have space to keep a crate for overnight visits and live in an apartment complex with some green space to walk and explore. I am also only a few minutes away from five different parks, so lots of options to check out. I have two cats that are dog friendly, but can be separated if the dog is not cat friendly !
About: I have had many different kinds of dogs since I was a child and have grown to love them ! I have been working at a dog daycare part time since January and have learned a lot about managing and caring for dogs. I work part time and am in college right now but am available the weekdays after 3 and anytime on Friday. Saturdays and Sundays I have work but can still squeeze in time. I care for dogs in others home the same I do in mine.. with love and compassion. I feed, take them out, and give them plenty of attention !
About: I’m here to make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and completely at home while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, medication support, or giving them plenty of snuggles and playtime, I’m happy to step into their routine and keep everything feeling familiar and comforting. I have experience caring for a wide range of pets. I currently have a 4‑year‑old Goldendoodle and a 2‑year‑old Cockapoo, both raised since they were tiny 8‑week‑old pups. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, so caring for pets is truly part of who I am. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member, learn what makes them happiest, and create a sweet, lasting bond that makes them excited every time I walk through the door. My motto: If they’re spoiled rotten, you’re doing it right! 😊 I work full‑time, but I have plenty of flexibility and autonomy built into my schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m especially available on weekends, when I can give your pet even more focused attention, snuggles, and playtime. During every service, safety is my number one priority. I’ll always make sure your fur babies are protected, comfortable, and cared for — whether I’m at your home or mine.
About: I have had pets my entire life. I grew up with a dog and got my first cat when I was 7. Since then, I have had many wonderful pets who have greatly enhanced my life. My cat Vinnie was diabetic, so I have experience giving injections. I can also administer oral medication. I have been pet sitting for clients in the West Chester area for years and am happy to provide references. I absolutely love animals, and I will treat your pets as I do my own. I know how hard it is to leave them, and I will provide regular updates so that you have peace of mind. I tutor remotely and can make my own schedule, so I have lots of availability for your pets. I can do overnight stays when needed. I will keep your pets' schedules and routines. We will have plenty of play time and snuggles. I will brush them (if they like that.)
About: I take great pride in the fact that I’ll treat your animals as if they were my own! I’ve handled reactive pets and have had to administer medications multiple times a day to pets as well. I’m an early bird and love to stay busy! I work as a bartender so I have plenty of time on my hands and have a flexible schedule to take great care of your loved ones I have two wonderful fur babies that I walk regularly. They get many treats. I’ve worked with reactive dogs so that is not something I’m scared of handling!
“Callie fed Chloe and took her for a walk while we were away for the day. Aside from loving and taking good care of our dog, which was evident from the many photos that were taken, Callie has great customer service skills. She’s friendly, a super communicator, and very dependable. I definitely recommend Callie to all.”
“Lauren did a great job with my 2 puppies! She went above and beyond and gave me great reports after each visit. She responds to communication very quickly and was willing to help me out last minute. Would definitely recommend!”
“Video chat was a great way to do an introduction and walk thru for first time meeting. Loved the pictures and video sent, made me confident my dog was happy and well cared for. Will use again!”
About: As an animal lover, I’ve watched my friends cats & dogs while they’re out of town. My favorite part of watching them is taking them on walks along with giving them lots of cuddles & play time. I currently work as an esthetician & artist who creates my own schedule based off of appointments & gigs. My career is flexible & allows me to care for animals most time of the day & week! In my own home, I make sure my cats receive playtime, attention, pets & cuddles. Within a clients home, I’d make sure to understand each individuals animals needs and how they are typically cared for. This is vital to me, so the animals are able to maintain their same routine & schedule alongside receiving the care & playtime they deserve.
About: I’m currently studying to be a vet assistant. Since I was a kid I’ve loved animals and have accumulated lots of knowledge over the years. I’ve been trusted to care for many family pets. I’m very calm and patient, and I’m excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets as well! I’m currently working part-time, early mornings. Mid-week, afternoons and weekends are the best times for me to care for and play with your babies! I live in a very quiet home and a very quiet neighborhood. We can sit and relax while I knit or easily walk down to the nearby observatory, park, or town square.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Forest Park. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

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 walker.
