About: I’m the owner of Gold Paw Trails N’ Tails, a professional dog walking and pet care business. I work with dogs every day and have hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, ages, energy levels and personalities. My experience includes puppies, seniors, large and small breeds, multi-dog households, high-energy dogs, and dogs who may be shy or anxious. I provide professional dog walking, drop-in care, group play, vacation care and boarding, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual routine and needs. Safety, reliability and communication are extremely important to me. I’m experienced with following detailed care instructions, managing different personalities and energy levels, and keeping pet parents updated while their dogs are in my care. Although I’m returning to Rover, I’m not new to professional pet care. This is what I do every day, and I treat every dog as an individual rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Pet care is my profession and a part of my daily routine. I own and operate a professional dog walking and pet care business, so my days are centered around caring for dogs. I offer weekday walks and drop-ins as well as vacation care and select weekend availability. I keep a structured schedule so every pet receives reliable, unrushed care. Safety and trust are always my priority. I follow each pet’s normal routine and care instructions closely and treat every client’s home with respect. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, energy levels and personalities, and I adjust my approach to what makes each dog feel most comfortable. Communication is also important to me, so pet parents can expect updates and photos while their dog is in my care.
“Caroline is AMAZING!! I truly cannot say enough good things about how wonderful of a pet sitter she is! She took such amazing care of my cat while I was away and I could feel all the love he was getting from her!! She gave me updates and pictures daily that made me so happy! I will rebook with her now every time and I’m telling all my family and friends to use her!”
“Kristi took very good care of our cat when we were away. We will definitely keep her in mind for next time and appreciate all the beautiful photos of her while we were away. Mind was at ease knowing she was getting good care.”
About: Love working with dogs for over 20 years. Have trained puppies and some older adult dogs. Our large fenced in yard is great for dogs who enjoy the outdoors. I work from home over the past 10 years spending my days with my pups. I do take walks around the block with my babies but they always prefer the yard. I have a fenced in yard and friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if preferred. Can also work on training if needed.
About: Iv had animals my whole life, from dogs, cats, turtles, birds and ferrets and have loved and cared for each and everyone of them. Iv worked at a dog daycare/pet hotel, done in house dog sitting and currently work in a vet office. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, strengths and personalities and would love to care for your pets!! I work full time but am available for early morning and night time visits and walks. I’m off Saturdays, Sundays and Tuesdays so am available all day those days. I may be open to over nights, depending on my schedule and how far they are from me. I’m unable to do pet sitting in my own home as I have a few of my own. I will gladly care for your pets in your own home!!
About: I have grown up with dogs all my childhood and have fostered 15 dogs through Wet Nose rescue aswell. I have taken care of dog as young as puppys (8 weeks) - Elders (15 yrs) and sizing from 15lbs- 230lbs (I have an English Mastiff). I have three dogs at home right now plus a current foster and love spending my time with them as often as I can! I am currently as Bucks County Community College and have classes from 9:25am-12:05pm Monday-Thursday. Any time after that I am fully available and of course weekends as well. I love walking and being active with dogs and am very comfortable with any needed care. For example crate training, house training, learning to walk on a leash, behavioral learning, etc. I have much experience with my own dogs.
“Heather is great! She responded quickly to my request, she communicated clearly, was on time, and my dogs loved her (especially when she played their favorite ball game!). Highly recommend her!”
About: I had pets my whole life and have taken care of them since I was 10. I have taken care of neighbors' and friends' pets. I love animals. I currently foster dogs in my spare time. I took care of neighbors' dogs when they were away and have a love for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I'm looking forward to meeting your pup and treating him/her like my own! Currently, I am in college and my classes are remote and online! On weekends I tend to be home unless visiting friends but will work with you based on your needs and communicate if anything changes. I treat all pets like they are my own. I keep pets on leashes during walks. If there is any mess for drop-in I will clean it up. I don’t smoke I’m very clean I’ll treat your house the same. I love going on long walks/ runs with dogs I have taken care of. Safety and security are my number one priority. I would make sure to follow specific instructions in your home and respect your property like my own. Whether I am taking care of your pet on a drop-in, or a walk or they’re staying here, they’re going to feel the love from me and feel safe.
About: Leaving a pet in a kennel can be one of the most stressful situations for a pet owner - including myself. This prompted me to take my love of animals, combined with a large property -and a desire for change in my work life as an ICU nurse to begin a "small batch" boarding business. "Small" in numbers of dogs per stay, but not in size, we can accommodate the big breeds as well. ***Many clients and return clients book privately and my availability will be kept up to date on this site*** I've been a "mom" to two Dobermans and have cared for many dogs both at my house along with traditional dog sitting. I love all dogs and am very comfortable with large working breeds. Dogs that need medical care, (injections and medications are welcome as long as they have detailed instructions) are not an issue for me. Your dog is cared for as if it is our family dog - which means having fun, feeling safe, & loved - all with ample room to play - without the confines of a traditional kennel. I work full time from home, so your dog will have plenty of attention and lots of time outdoors to play. I follow your current routine with feedings to keep consistency and reduce any stress - my goal is for your dog to feel this is their "2nd home". My property (aka "Everygreen Hill") is large (2 acres) with slightly over 1 acre fenced. Your pup will have ample room to run in the fenced area, while the comfort of being inside (central AC for summer). A structured walk is an option, and that can be done on my property . Weather permitting, doggie pool, & sprinkler are available for play. Ideally, dogs are crate-trained for sleep time, naps, and breaks to ensure their safety. All dogs must not show aggression or have a history of aggression with other dogs to be accepted into our home and have proof of rabies vaccinations. Pups are permitted on the couch/furniture if they are allowed at their own home. Photos and videos are sent so you can see your pup while you are away.
“I felt confident that my pet was safe and content as Antonia seems to be a natural with dogs that aren’t perfect. She also altered her schedule and allowed me to have Additional care with no notice! So grateful…. I will definitely rebook!”
“Amanda was so incredible checking in on our girl. She gave great info every time she went over and made us feel so comfortable while we were away. She even helped try and reset our WiFi when it went down for us. She is super nice and we’ve already rebooked her to watch our girl on an upcoming trip!”
About: I am a retired teacher and I am responsible and truly love dogs. I understand that dogs are part of your family, and you want to have piece of mind when you are on vacation or you are at work that your dogs will be well taken care of. I feel that way about my pet sitter. My availability is open because I have a flexible part-time job which allows me to be attentive to your animals’ schedule. If you contact me, we can discuss your pets’ needs. I would take care of your pet in your home. My care would include feeding your dog, walking your dog, and spending time with your dog.
“Kate was awesome! She provided Drop-in visits for my dog Bella. Bella is very timid and usually takes a bit to adapt to a stranger. But Bella loved Kate the moment she saw her. This was my first time using Rover and Kate made it a great experience.”

Christina was amazing with our husky lab! She gave him all of the attention, followed directions to a tee, and was very mindful of the questions she asked to make sure she was prepared to watch him. He also requires medication and she didn’t skip a beat with delivering it. Don’t hesitate to book her - she’s the best!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Furlong 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 .
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.
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 .
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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.

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.
