I booked for daily drop in visits for my cat during a vacation away from home. Jennifer was so great at responding quickly and giving daily updates. The updates were detailed and came with multiple pictures, which I appreciated so much while being so far away from our cat! My cat (who is VERY shy with strangers) warmed up to Jennifer in no time and was so happy when she came to visit her every day. She truly went above and beyond to make sure our cat was comfortable and taken care of. She cleaned up after my cat had an accident and opened up our sliding glass doors so our cat could enjoy the fresh air! I feel Jennifer truly respects and loves animals and you should not hesitate to book with her. Your pet will certainly be loved and cared for. Thank you Jennifer!!

We booked Kennedy for drop in visits for our two young cats. First time using this service, and we were very pleased! Kennedy took wonderful care of our kitties, sending photos and feeding and activity updates each day. She washed up pet dishes and even brought in our mail, going the extra mile and putting our minds at ease while we were away!

About: I worked at a kennel for a few months, so I can handle multiple dogs at once. I have my own baby; He’s an older shit zu/ yorkie named Chewbacca. I enjoy helping wherever I can. I’m here for all the walks. I work part-time, so I am able to offer walks most days. My schedule is very flexible at work, so times will have to be discussed. We have one dog and two cats. They are allowed most places in the house. Affection is very big in this household. I try to take care of the animals health, with probiotics and correct food amounts.

Jill was amazing! She cared for our dogs like they were her own. I have 2 very different dogs with different needs and she was great for both. I have an older dog who needs love and slowness while the other is a younger hyper pup who needs alllllll the love and walking and energy. Jill sent photos while I was away. She took the worry away of being away from my babies!

About: I’m an experienced pet owner with three cats of my own (one being a foster pet). I would love a dog myself, but due to having multiple felines and a busy schedule, it is not the right time. However, I love taking walks and hikes and am overall very active. I would love to take along a buddy or two, especially if it helps someone out! I’m also open to drop in checks, or if there is enough notice I can flex my schedule to make sure your pup has whatever he or she needs to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! I understand how scary it can be to leave the well-being of your pet with someone else and I will do everything I can to put your mind at ease while away from your companion. I work a remote/hybrid job Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:30pm. If someone is close I can pop in during the day to let the dog out or take it for a quick walk. And then I’m fully available most weekends and evenings. I would need some instructions from the owner on exactly what they need me to do, and I would appreciate strong communication. I know how it feels to leave your pets in the care of someone else and if I can ease any anxiety that would be great

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life. One of my earliest memories is begging my parents for a dog until they relented and got me a free puppy from the classifieds in the newspaper (yes, I am that old)! Over my life time, I’ve been privileged to take care of five dogs. They ranged in size from a 10 pound poodle mix to a 150 pound St. Bernard. My current fur babies are a rambunctious lab mix and two pampered house. cats As a pet owner, I know the importance of having reliable and trustworthy sitters to take care of my fur babies when I am out of town. I am that person who writes long and detailed instructions about feeding schedules, medications, and who to call in case of an emergency. Most afternoons, I am available to take your dog(s) for a walk, feed your cat(s), or just check on your house when you are away. I will text or email you updates with photos. I will take care of your fur babies and respect your home as if they were my own.

About: “From tail wags to soft purrs—and even tiny paws and eight legs—I love helping pets feel happy and cared for. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other pets, including ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, and even tarantulas. I’ve walked, bathed, and trained animals (including a dog that became a service animal), so I know patience, attention, and trust are key. Every pet in my care gets love, safety, and companionship, just like they’re part of my family.” My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m able to provide walks, playtime, or overnight care whenever your pet needs it. I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve. “I deeply care for every pet in my care, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I keep their space clean, comfortable, and secure, and I pay close attention to their needs so they always feel nurtured and well-cared-for.”

About: I’ve lived with animals of all sizes since before I could walk. I love meeting new anims everywhere I go and do my best to understand and respect them. I see pets as family members, and believe they should be treated as such. My schedule is currently very flexible, and I have plenty of availability throughout the week. I will keep my calendar updated and communicate promptly about any scheduling changes. I believe pets are happiest when their routines stay consistent. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pets are family, too. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you know how they’re doing. I’m very comfortable with both cats and dogs and have experience with pets of all sizes.

About: I have taken care of my neighbors dog since they got her. I would do routinely walks, play dates, and would feed their dog whenever they were out of town. I am a forensic scientist by day but an animal lover by night. I love animals and have a cat of my own and get the most joy coming home to him. After a long stressful day, taking care of cute animals makes me feel so much better. I will walk, feed, and play with your pet’s wherever you are comfortable with me doing that. Whatever specific’s you have, I will follow to make sure your experience with me is the best that it can be.

About: I have been caring for pets for as long as I could remember I grew up in a household that always had cats and dogs. One of my favorite things to do is spend time with animals. I have four years of professional experience assisting my mom with her pet sitting services. I I have done drop in visits walks and overnight house sitting. I not only have experience with cats and dogs, but I also have experience with puppies, birds, mice and even pigs. I do my best to fit into your pet’s normal routine. Whether that’s early morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, or evening playtime, I’ll make sure they get care when they need it most. If you have specific timing needs, just let me know and we’ll work it out. Pets are our best friends It’s important to know they are I. Good hands when we can’t be there for them. I would be sure to treat your animal with the same love and care and attentiveness that I treat mine. I want to provide trustworthy and reliable care so that you know your pet is well taken care of while you are away. I would be sure to follow any guidelines you have for the well-being of your pet. I look forward to making new pet friends

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets. I am currently unemployed so taking care of your dog(s) is my top priority! So whether it’s staying at your house over night, or just coming in occasionally to check on your dog, I’m your guy! I work well with dogs in any environment, big yards, small yards, or even no yard at all. I am very good at commanding dogs & keeping them out of trouble while also letting them have fun at the same time.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for at least ten years. When I was growing up, I always gravitated toward dogs and they did to me! Puppies, seniors, big or little, I’ve cared for them all. Your furbabies mean the world to me and deserve the same love and attention a child does! I’m a single mom, and hairdresser, with a doggo and two cats of my own. I’m working part time currently and I’m trying to see how much business I can make here to eventually start my own one day. It has always been a dream- sometimes animals are more kind than humans. I have a nice big fenced in yard in Swoyersville for your pup to enjoy! My pup currently gets fed twice a day, dry in the AM and wet with dry in the PM. She’s very active and loves to play. She’s up to date on her shots, as I believe vet care is very important!

Melissa is beyond a 5 star sitter!! I was very anxious leaving my 2 labs while I went away for a few days. Melissa had a meet and greet with them and answered all my questions. I was SO relieved! She sent pictures twice a day which kept me reassured the pups were doing well. She went above and beyond!!

Bandit and the cats were so happy when we got home from our trip - I was worried about leaving Bandit because he had just gotten over a tummy issue and was on special food but Gwynne said it was no problem. She even updated me on Bandit's recovery progress over the 3 days I was gone, and that really put my mind at ease!

May was awesome with my two dogs. One dog was diagnosed with diabetes this year and has developed diabetic cataracts. I hesitated to leave them at home on a recent trip, but May took great care of my girls! She is wonderful and did a great job administering Bitsy's insulin. She has my highest possible recommendation!

Jared did everything as expected. He arrived when he was supposed to, did was he was asked to do and send multiple photos of each visit. He was not a hands-off sitter, he sat on the couch and outside on the steps with the dogs, keeping them company and giving them lots of affection. I would use Jared again if I needed a sitter. This was a one time sitting as I had a family wedding out of state, usually a family member cares for my pets when I need to go away. Jared cared for my dogs better than my kids.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Forty Fort

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Forty Fort on Rover is $14.43 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 402 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Forty Fort. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Forty Fort 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 Forty Fort 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 Forty Fort with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forty Fort. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

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.
