“We liked Marian immediately and felt very confident leaving our Airedales in her care. Marian is an expert dog person—our dogs were instantly happy with her and she was equally comfortable with them. We knew they were in good hands with Marian!”
“Danielle is a wonderful pet sitter who took superb care of Java while I was away. Last minute, Java was prescribed medicine and Danielle was able to give Java his meds without problem while I was gone. My heart felt at ease with Java in Danielle’s care!”
“I have both an indoor cat and an outdoor stray that I care for and Paige did a fantastic job taking care of both of them while I was away for a week. She even managed to get my timid cat to trust her, which is no small feat. I can absolutely recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“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!”
“Barb is the greatest and the best! We are always happy when she has an opening for us. The dog is calm and relaxed, and we get to see the walks she took while we were gone! Barb is flexible and patient with the dog and with us. Thanks, Barb!”
“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!”
“Appreciated the help checking in on our pups with a last-minute booking! Isaiah was patient and understanding with us and our anxious pups while we navigated this first time Rover experience.”
“Morgan was so helpful and communicative! We so appreciated her help and could tell the dogs felt comfortable and taken care of with her there. Will definitely be using her in the future, thanks so much Morgan!”
“Nikki is our wild puppy’s new BFF. She takes our wacky, overboard instructions in stride, is a calming presence for our busy pup, and is a wonderful communicator before, durning and after her visits. Can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“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.”
“Steph came for a meet & greet with my scared cat, Billy. He is newly single after his sister passed in November. He is scared of everyone and anything. But Steph was great! She knew how to approach him and listened to my concerns. We came up with a plan to help Billy feel comfortable when she comes to sit for him. I am so relieved to have someone like Steph to help me care for him.”
“Amanda was amazing with our 2 pups. Both my dogs were so calm and took right to Amanda. Amanda sent pictures with every visit and communication was spot on. We needed someone at last minute and Amanda was very accommodating. Will definitely be using her services in the near future.”
About: I have trained a seeing eye puppy and I have 6 years of experience dog sitting. Also, I am working towards training my dog to be a therapy dog to bring into practice with me! I am an Occupational Therapy grad student so I will be available to sit on weekends and some weekday nights but I can be flexible! I make sure your doggies have everything they need like water, food, and lots of loving. I absolutely LOVE playing with them, getting them outside, and I always make sure to take them outside to potty before I leave!
“Hannah was lovely! She took very good care of my dudes, provided me with detailed information, and was super communicative. Would highly recommend to watch your pets and care for them. Def book again!”
“Tiana does such an amazing job with our pups! She takes the extra time to make sure they get to play, sniff and explore after being cooped up for hours. And that’s in addition the main ask of letting them outside for a bathroom break and feeding them. She truly is a lifesaver for us when we’re away from home for an extended period.”

Courtney is excellent with our two geriatric, special needs dogs. She is very reliable and dependable and a pleasure to work with. Her level of care is outstanding and her communication is top notch. We will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her services.
This was my first time ever using a pet sitter and after Lauren, we’ll never be returning to boarding 🙌🏾 I was a little nervous about leaving my pup but Lauren made me feel at ease with her warm, calm demeanor and her EXPERTISE! Lauren came highly recommended and her reputation speaks for itself. She was on time for each visit and sent LOADS of cute videos and pictures. She followed my instructions and communicated when necessary with any questions or concerns. My fur baby looked happy and comfortable in my home and NOT STRESSED. I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying! I would recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a kind, dedicated pet sitter. I will definitely be using her services for our future travels.
Ally was the perfect sitter for our anxious dog. She gave him lots of attention and love so he relaxed and had a great time. I was nervous because we hadn’t used Rover before, but this was a great experience and will definitely use it again (with Ally of course!).
Lisa did such an amazing job taking care of Bunny while we were out of town. We got pics at every visit, and I could tell our pup got lots of attention. Lisa was able to take our last minute Thanksgiving weekend request, and she came over to meet Bunny a couple days in advance. I highly recommend Lisa!!!
Amanda was extremely conscientious and responsible taking care of my energetic dog while I was away! I could see how happy Oreo was to spend time with her with both walks and lots of cuddles from the great photos she took. Plus, Amanda really took the time pre-visit to make sure she understood Oreo's diet and personality. All round a great experience -- thank you!

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 Glenside 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 Glenside 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 Glenside 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 Glenside. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
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.
