“Alexa was great with my cat, Teddy. Initially, Teddy was somewhat reluctant to interact with Alexa. . She did a great job of making him feel comfortable. By the second day, teddy was very playful with her”
“Sarah is detail oriented, communicative, and has an intuitive approach to caring for pets (in my case, cats). I have one social and one fearful cat, and after just three short visits she was already beginning to win over the fearful one. She sent photos during every visit and provided meaningful updates. I so appreciate her attentiveness and making both my cats and me feel comfortable while in separate places. Thank you Sarah!”

“Amanda far exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond in all respects. She clearly loves animals and bonded with our Lippy and Emmy, while attending to their every need, including Lippy’s meds. Knowing things were being handled so well allowed us to fully enjoy our trip with no worries at all. She is the best!”
About: I have Taken care of my family dog my entire life and overnight pet sit for many families in the past. I have worked with all types of dogs I am currently a part time student so I have lots of time that I spend at home and I’m pretty flexible! I have a part time job as well. I know the area well and I have done a lot of walks and sitting with dogs around philly in the past! I’ll be in the area for at least 3 more years for school.

About: Hi, I’m Hannah! I recently relocated from San Diego to the Philadelphia area and am excited to get to know the community and all of the wonderful pets in it! I live in a spacious townhome with a fenced in yard, plenty of space for animals of all sizes. I’ve spent my entire life around animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Growing up with animals taught me how important patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s unique personality can be. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or has specific routines and needs, I’m happy to accommodate what helps them feel most comfortable and secure. I understand that every animal is different, and I strive to provide the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own pets. My partner and I share our home with Pablo, our friendly 9-month-old rescue pup, and our 2-year-old rescue cat, Mittens. Because of this, I’m very familiar with managing different personalities, energy levels, and household dynamics. Safety, communication, and making sure your pet feels loved and cared for are always my top priorities. I’m currently enjoying a flexible schedule while settling into the Philadelphia area, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet loves adventure, a structured routine, or simply having someone nearby, I’m committed to making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, daycare, boarding, or overnight care, I’d love the opportunity to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available for bookings throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and afternoon visits depending on your pet’s needs. Because I’m in a transitional period while settling into the Philadelphia area, I have plenty of time to provide consistent care, attention, and routine for your pets. I’m happy to be flexible with last-minute requests when possible and will always do my best to accommodate scheduling needs. Please feel free to reach out with specific dates or times, I’m happy to work with you to find what fits best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine and needs to provide consistent, attentive care. I live in a spacious townhome with a fenced back yard and plenty of space. I value clear communication and reliability, and I always provide updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands. In my home, pets are supervised in a calm, structured environment. I live with a friendly 9-month-old rescue dog and a 2-year-old cat, so I’m experienced managing multi-pet households and ensuring safe, low-stress interactions. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable space where pets feel at ease and owners feel reassured.
“Mackenzie was great! She helped with my dog with special needs (deaf, partially blind) over the holidays. She communicated well with updates and pictures every day, and she worked through some bad winter weather! I am very particular with who I trust with my dog, and we would definitely use her again.”
“Highly recommend booking with him! Excellent clear communication and very attentive to my dog. Booked with him 1 time previously and the results were consistent this time around which I admire. Book Gavin!”

Aiden took care of my two dogs for a few days while I was out of the country. I was so happy with all the updates and pictures. My dogs loved her and she took such good care of them. She paid close attention to what they were doing and messaged me with questions. I felt really comfortable with her caring for them and all the attention and love they received. I will be happy to book with her again.
Dion took fantastic care of our cat and dog when dropping in for a walk, or playtime, or putting them to bed! My wife and I loved getting her notes and photos with each Drop-In visit and we could tell the pets both loved her care (although our cat needed a few visits to warm up). I would recommend Dion to any and all of my friends for any pet sitting needs!
Natalia was amazing. Our dog Wicket was well taken care of. He can be a needy-pity and he took right to her. She came over multiple times a day, while we were away. They played inside and outside. She even sat with him on the couch like we do because he’s a 75 pound lap dog. Natalia even read to him. He was a happy pup while we were away. She was great with communication. Tons of stories and pictures. Do not hesitate to reach out to her. She went above and beyond for our boy!!!
Dabney has been so good with our dog. We were in a desperate situation for an all-day thing away from home and we communicated with Dabney just the evening before, late, and she was able to come two times that Saturday to walk our 1yo puppy. We've used her ever since and she's been wonderful. On time, reliable, and good with our dog. Highly recommend Dabney for Bryn Mawr-area dogsitting!
Meera was fantastic and the best dog sitter we have ever had, by far. She made sure our dog’s needs were all met and gave her so much love and companionship during our time away. She was prompt, responsible and provided multiple check in photos a day and constant updates. Highly recommend!

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 Gladwyne 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 Gladwyne 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 .

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

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.

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.
