“Adrianna was excellent with Winnie. She made her feel comfortable when she was a little nervous and Winnie now has a new best friend. She was extremely attentive and responsive. Thank you, Adrianna!”
“Kimberly is such an attentive sitter for our pups! She sends frequent updates, communicates with me throughout our trips and is so thoughtful of our home and animals! We will definitely use her for all of our sitter needs.”
About: Hi! I’m Megan! I’m a recent grad who absolutely loves dogs but isn’t quite ready to adopt one of my own just yet. In the meantime, I’d love to spend my time making some furry friends, going on walks, playing, and giving plenty of belly rubs! I’m especially hoping to connect with pups and families looking for a consistent sitter or walking buddy. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and building a relationship where they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I also have two equally pet-deprived roommates who are always excited when I have a doggie guest over, so your pup is guaranteed to get lots of attention and affection if they come for a visit! I’d love the opportunity to become your pup’s new favorite visitor! I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to easily work around your pet’s routine. I’m happy to accommodate their feeding, walking, playtime, and care schedule to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away! Whether your pet needs a regular walking buddy or some extra love while you're away, I’m happy to work around their routine and your schedule! I can create a weekly walking schedule as frequently as needed, or provide attentive, loving care while you’re traveling. I’m flexible and open to your pet’s individual needs—let’s chat and see how I can help make their day a little happier!
“We reached out to Christina somewhat last minute for a couple drop-in visits with Remy. To accommodate schedules, we did a virtual meet and greet. Remy was able to get outside and play on the deck on a sunny day, which is exactly what I wanted and he needed. Appreciated the pictures and the communication from each visit. Will definitely consider using Christina again.”
“Dawn helped me with an emergency stop in-visit for a sick puppy. She is truly an advocate for my puppy and she does so much to give me peace of mind. I am so lucky to have found her”
“Roxxie was great with my pups, she was very prompt and sent lots of pictures on their walks and playtime. My oldest and hardest dog was great and was excited to see her every visit. Last minute we had to add some drop in visits and Roxxie was willing and able to work this out for us. We will be using Roxxie for all our other trips.”
“I am so happy to have Brenda to help care for our family’s new puppy. It is very reassuring to me that he has a scheduled playtime with Brenda when we have other commitments. I especially love the pictures that she sends after the visits so that we can see how much fun our little guy had. She is a wonderful sitter!”
“This was my first time using the Rover app and honestly I was a little nervous and apprehensive about the whole thing but Erica made me feel so much better about it! She made sure to send photos and update me about everything. My cat is an anxious one and he seemed to get along well with her so that made my heart happy! Will definitely be rebooking her in the future and highly recommend!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life since I was born. Caring for them is immensely rewarding to me, so much that I don’t consider it work. Friends and family trust me to care for their pets every time they are away, knowing that I will treat them as I do my own dogs, Zeke and Kona. I am a Drexel University student, but I will be off from school until January, so my schedule is open to care for your pets. Your pets' safety and well-being are my top priority, and I'll make sure to follow all instructions and routines to keep them happy and healthy. I am always respectful of my client’s homes.
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, fish since I can remember, have loved every moment! Would love to help take care of your special family member ❤️ I'm currently devoting my time to pet care, there will be plenty of time for walks and play Monday through Friday, some Saturdays. Possibly Sundays I walk any size dog, spend time in your home to have play time, grooming time. With cats I would feed, clean box and love them
About: I’ve cared for multiple dogs, including my own senior dog that had passed. Family and friends have trusted me to board their dogs, and I’ve provided feeding, medication when needed, bathroom breaks, playtime, and lots of care and attention to keep them happy and comfortable. I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday until 4pm. If you are needing to drop off your pup on Friday before 4, my mom would be home to help until I get home. I would only be available in the evenings during the week if needed. I have a fenced backyard where they can play, and food/water bowls to help dogs feel comfortable during their stay. Whether I’m caring for dogs in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have everything they need and receive plenty of attention, care, and are comfortable with me.
“Chrissie was awesome! She sent pictures and updates on everyone every day and took extra time to play with our cats. I will definitely be booking her for our next trip and would highly recommend!”
“Amy had been Nittanys walker for maybe 2 years she has been AMAZING! She is thoughtful and kind and is very sweet! I feel so much better knowing Nittany is with Amy, when I have to be away.”
About: I have over 40 years experience with dogs. I will provide lots of love and care. I have previous experience with giving medications, including shots for diabetes. I have a big yard for your pet to play in (invisible/ electric fence only) I am an elementary teacher and will be available to provide care for the summer. I can provide all day care and overnight stays in my house. I am also available for stop in visits at your house to walk, feed and provide care for your pet. Plan your summer trips! My dog is my family and yours will be mine too. I will provide a loving home with a yard to play in. I give my dog lots of exercise daily with walks and play/social time. My dog loves to play with other dogs and is very social.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 30 years, starting when I was in second grade. I've owned several dogs throughout my life, including my current dog, Obi! All of my dogs have been part of my family since they were puppies, so I'm familiar with the patience, energy, and attention younger dogs need. Beyond caring for my own pets, I've also looked after dogs and cats for friends and family. I've cared for pets of different ages, including a senior cat, and understand that every animal has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether it's going for walks, playing, or simply keeping your pet company while you're away, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I know how important pets are to their families, and I'll treat yours with the same care and attention I give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. This allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, whether your pet needs a walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship. I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine and can also accommodate house sitting when needed. I understand that everyone's schedule is different, so I'll do my best to find times that work for both you and your pet. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and comfortable when you're not home. Having pets of my own, I know how much trust goes into leaving them in someone else's care. When looking after your pets, I'll follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I'll also make sure they're secure during walks and that their environment stays clean and comfortable. I respect both your home and your pet's personal space, and I'm always happy to send photos and updates so you know how they're doing while you're away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Furlong is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 9,534 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Furlong. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Furlong. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
