“Molly was amazing! Went to Jersey shore for 2 weeks and she handled EVERYTHING! Feedings, extra walks, picking up the mail… she was above and beyond. Great at communicating and lots of photos and details. Always on time. So responsible and mature.”
About: Hi! I'm Alexis, and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk, keeping your cat company while you're away, or staying overnight in your home, my goal is always the same - to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're gone. I've been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic huskies to laid-back pugs and cocker spaniels. I also have years of experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own unique routine and personality. Outside of Rover, I work full-time in a leadership role where reliability, communication, and attention to detail are essential every day. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully, keep your home secure, arrive when expected, and treat your pets like family. You'll receive regular photo updates and messages during every visit, so you'll always know how your pet is doing. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I currently work full-time during the day, which makes me a great fit for afternoon and evening drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight house sitting. I keep my calendar up to date and always communicate promptly, so you'll know exactly when to expect me. Reliability is important to me, and I strive to provide dependable care that fits seamlessly into your pet's routine. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and supported in their normal routine. I follow your instructions closely and treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I also understand that every pet is different. Whether your dog thrives on long walks or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I adjust my care to fit their personality and routine.
“Dana was great and was really flexible with being able to come in at short notice. She also took really good care of our kitty and was great and keeping us up to date.”
“Jordan has been phenomenal with my puppy! He's very communicative and gives great recaps, this is so important when you’re trying to train and create a routine with a puppy. I’m so glad to have him helping us, my dog Leroy and I both are thankful for his service!”
“Emily is the greatest. She continues to agree to do dog walks and drop in visits for me, even though I am totally flighty about dates and a last minute scheduler to boot. I’ve never worried about my dogs or my cat when she’s watching them (which has been often).”
“I’m so grateful for Julia helping us out! She was very responsive and sent picture updates after each visit. I have already recommended her to multiple people. Thank you Julia!!”
“Ashley was so awesome checking in on Woogie over the holidays! Lots of pictures and information from each visit! Would HIGHLY recommend Ashley to anyone that needs their pet looked after while they are away!”
“Madeline was wonderful. She tended to my fearful cat while I was away and by the 3rd day, Tini was eating a Churu from her hand. Would absolutely hire again”
“Sarah visited my Dorothy cat every morning and always made sure I knew she was there with pictures and updates. In the past when I was away Dorothy would stress and over groom herself. Not this time. Sarah bonded so well with her and Dorothy was relaxed and happy. I will surely want Sarah to care for her again if I am away for awhile.”
“Wojciech took great care of our dog Nutella while we were at a wedding. This was our first time having a drop in visit in our home. He was super responsive and kept us updated on how much she ate and made sure she went to the bathroom. Nutella definitely appreciated the long walk as well! We will definitely be booking with him again!”
About: I have absolutely loved all animals all my life! I currently have a one year old lab mix. He is a fun and energetic pup who loves all other dogs he meets. He is a great play mate. I currently live in a pet friendly apartment with a small dog park and neighborhoods for walks. I currently work from home so I am able to hangout with your pup all day! I am a nurse working remotely, so I am home every day and can hangout with your pup! My dog is very energetic and loves walks and playtime, so your pup will get plenty of exercise if that’s what they want! We also allow pets on furniture and have big dog beds for the pups who prefer to relax 😊 I live in a two bedroom apartment that has easy access to grass, a dog park, and neighborhoods to go on walks. Since I work from home I can take dogs out as much as needed.
“Trederica was wonderful! Kept me updated with pictures every visit & accommodated all my needs when it came to my fur baby, would absolutely book her again.”
“She is an amazing sitter! If I could give her 6/5 stars I would. She was so friendly and sent sweet messages and photos during her visits. Her love for animals showed. I could tell that she really enjoyed caring for my 100 lb Dane! (He actually might like her more than me now!)”
“She did an excellent job taking care of my 2 cats. They were happy with her for every visit and always gave me updates, she seems to take great care for both of them and I would love to make her my cat sitter again!”
About: Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile and consider me as a care taker for your animal while you are away! I have grown up with dogs (and the occasional bird & fishies). For the past 12 years, I've lived with and visited my best bud Zeke at my parent's house. I would love to have a dog of my own in the future, however for now I am hoping and so happy to take care of other's loved ones during the week and on weekends! I'm an active individual and enjoy taking dogs on walks, for car rides and the occasional ice cream or pup cup. I will give your animal all the love that they've come to expect because they certainly deserve it! Please reach out with any questions, and thanks again for thinking of me! :) I currently work full time (9-5) Monday-Friday, however I usually work from home Friday's and am available on weekends for full time pet care. During the week, I am able to visit (feed, walk, take out for bathroom needs) early in the morning (between 5:30 am to 7 am and in the evening (between 6-9 pm) In my current apartment, pets are welcome visitors. However, I am also happy to visit your home multiple times a day and stay with your pet when needed, especially if you are close! I work only 20 minutes away so I would have ample time in the morning and especially in the evening to stop by to feed, toilet, walk and play with your pet! This is especially great if your pet doesn’t do well in a new environment; I am happy to provide them with everything they’d need in a place where they feel the most comfortable!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gladwyne
We were very impressed with Heather, from the initial meeting to introduce her to our cat and go over where things were in our house to the thorough communication during our vacation with the most pictures I have ever received from a cat sitter. 10/10 and will definitely hire Heather for our future vacations.
Ricky is great! I booked her last minute, and she still made time to come meet me and my pup beforehand. She’s very friendly and professional. It was obvious she loves dogs and they love her. On the scheduled day, she was prompt and communicative. I’m already planning on using her again!
Aidan was an amazing sitter for my 2 cats. She spent about 30 mins per visit for water/food/litter box changes, checking on them when they were hiding and playing with them. I really appreciated here detailed updates, reliability and care. Will definitely book again.
Very kind and attentive and made sure to send lots of pictures and videos even when he was hiding. Rachel took the time to make sure my skittish lil man was comfortable and got accustomed to her as he is afraid of new people. By the end of the visit he loved her! Very responsive to texts and questions/requests I had! 10/10 thank you Rachel!!
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!
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Wally! Shandara visited twice a day for a week, took excellent care of him, kept everything clean, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even went above and beyond by bringing in my packages and a large delivery. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat, and I truly appreciated her reliability, kindness, and communication. I would absolutely book Shandara again and highly recommend her!
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!!!

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.
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 Gladwyne. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
