About: Ive had all sorts of pets since childhood i.e. cats dogs chicks bunnies. I have experience with puppies, both golden retriever pups and German shephard pups. I currently do not have any pets for the first time in my life and so I've decided to create an account to supplement my income as well as satisfy my desire to be around furry creatures. For the record, I do not work with reptiles. Furry creatures only :) I am reliable and will keep you updated as much as you'd like me to, with pictures and videos of your pets! Cats and dogs preferred but also have experience with bunnies. I'm currently working in a very flexible industry, so my schedule isn't very rigid, however I will sometimes need to leave the house for 6-8hours. I enjoy being outside with the pups in the evening, when I have the most time. I do not have the ability to care for pets in my home. I try and stick to the animals routine in their home, although sometimes they can be stubborn and not stick to their own routine. They will, once they trust and warm up to me, sometimes it takes a day or two :) I'm very patient and gentle and will show them all the love :)
“Gloria did a fantastic job with my 2 cats while I was away on a bicycling vacation. She sent pictures and kept me updated on her arrival and departure times. I will definitely use her services again”

I am currently a teacher, so I am available after 3pm on weekdays and am available on weekends! I am also occasionally off for breaks! I make sure to provide pets with the most loving care as possible. I have two dogs of my own and I treat every dog I watch as if they were my own!
“Rebooked with Bri and of course she was great with our pups. They are so comfortable with her which says so much cause our little can be such a yapper. We couldn’t be more appreciative of her. Thanks Bri!”
“Always an amazing and thoughtful caretaker. My pups are pretty particular about people and absolutely love Maria. Communication is easy, the information is detailed, she always does a wonderful job.”
About: I have experience with both cats and dogs (small-medium sized) from the last several years. I grew up with two yorkshire terriers, Kuky y Gucci. In college, I adopted a tuxedo kitten, Ghost, with my roommates, who I lived with for four years. I was also part of a companion animal club that was dedicated to training future ESA dogs! Since I graduated I haven't owned any pets of my own but have cat sitted for my friends and regularly take care my partner's shit zu. Overall, I am very comfortable with pet care responsibilities including walking, grooming, feeding, and transportation to appointments. And most importantly, the greatest responsibility of all- LOVE, ATTENTION, AND PLAY!! I am currently a graduate student, working part time on the weekends. I am available for services on the following days/times: BOARDING SERVICES Sunday-Thursdays WALKING, SITTING, DROP-INS Tuesday - All Day Thursday - 2-8 Sunday - 5-8 I have a spacious studio apartment, as well as a pet-friendly apartment complex.

About: Hi everyone! my name is Rhyeshona but I prefer Shona a 24-year-old part time child care assist that also happens to love the second kind of children, animals. Unofficially I have 10+ years of experience taking care of an assortment of pet’s due to growing up in a “zoo”. Growing up my family would get a new pet every month of the year and each one demanded different requirements. Believe me I know about giving quality time around the clock. When it comes to activeness as well as my communication I take great pride in it, that’s why I’ll have no problem updating you on your pet’s with handfuls of pictures included. Being able to spend time with animals that’s suppose to act like animals gives me peace of mind and I look forward to meeting them. Around last year I graduated with my associate’s degree in Culinary Arts. After graduation however I found myself bouncing around jobs before working in childcare until I can become my on boss. I’m looking forward to meeting both you and your beloved pet. Boardings and Drop In’s I’m always around to help. ANY QUESTIONS IN MIND? GOT A PET THAT’S NOT A CAT OR DOG BUT STILL REQUIRES CARE? DON’T HESITATE TO REACH OUT! Though I work from Monday-Friday I’m most likely always home. However when Im out I’m not the only one caring for your pet it’s a family effort. I’m available from 7am to hours late into the night during the week and weekend. My home is available for care as well as your own to broaden your options. Though I don’t have my own vehicle my communication skills and experience with public transportation allows me to stay punctual. Any size cat is in my comfort zone, for dog’s I’ll be sticking with small-medium. If your pet has a routine you’d like to keep intact I’m more then willing to stick to it to provide normalcy and training to them
“Jade was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Izzy! She followed all directions, was very kind and caring, and truly went above and beyond to make sure Izzy was well taken care of while I was away. I would definitely recommend Jade and would trust her with Izzy again!”
About: Hello there! My name is Rachel and I just moved to Philly. Growing up we always had a dog--from the sweet 9 year old golden we adopted to save her from going to a shelter to the rowdy and anxious Dalmatian we adopted at about 2 years old. Throughout my adult life I've always had jobs that have required travel--so much so that I didn't think it was responsible to become a pet owner (yet!). I am hoping to be able to take my love for animals and offer part time pet care.-I have experience with all types of dogs and have often been the go-to pet sitters, walker, and care taker for my friends and family. I've worked with many different breeds, sizes, and personalities and I'm confident that I can provide a fun, safe, and loving environment for your pet! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule with plenty of time for breaks, walks, and treats! I’m very active and also used to getting up early and can accommodate whatever schedule your dog needs! I have a small backyard patio area. I live by myself in a three bedroom row home with plenty of room and dog, friendly furniture!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of friends/family/neighbors for years, have had my own pup for 3 years, and grew up with cats at home. I am knowledgeable about dog training and love walking and playing with dogs! I am currently a 4th year medical student with some extra time to take care of your pet(s) during weeknight evenings and on the weekends! I am comfortable feeding and crating dogs, if needed and can harness or leash dogs during walks. I do not currently have any pets of my own.
About: I've always had pets of my own, to be specific Guinea pigs and Dogs. I have a beautiful female dog named Coco she is my amazing daughter. I truly love animals and understand what it is to take care of one no matter even they belong to me or not. Im going to college for Zoology/Marine wildlife Veterinarian. CPR,AED,First Aid Certified (for humans). I work partime with marine animals as a job, I usually get out at 4pm so I am free to take care of amazing pets overnights. I make sure to keep in mind that I am in there house and in there safe place so putting there needs over mind is number 1 priority.
About: I have a dog at home, but due to her reactivity I am unable to foster or adopt other animals. I love playing and being around all types of animals. I’ve housesat for my family and friends since I was about 13. I would love to help out and take care of your furry friends while you’re away! I am currently working Monday-Friday 9-5 during the week. So my availability would be Friday to Sunday, so if you need a weekend getaway I’m your girl! My home is unavailable for petsitting due to my dogs reactivity, so caring for your animal in your home would be mostly just following your rules! It’s important to learn your dogs usual schedule to help them feel more comfortable while you are away!
About: I i spend extra time loving and caring for the pups! I will not be working on these days la that I care for them so there’s extra attention and love to give! I’m working part time! So I have plenty of time for your pups! I love long walks and visits at open but gated fields like FDR park and freedom barks! We encourage sniffs for mental stimulation on walks and healthy treats like dried sweet potato (as long as it’s okay with your pups stomach!) I have a friendly golden doodle who loves to play. I have the ability to crate if needed and a small fenced in back yard! We always keep our doors locked when inside and always have an idea of what’s going on with the pups! All house products are locked up and safely put away! Safety is a priority of course!
About: I was very fortunate to grow up around an abundance of pets- be it dogs, cats, birds, rodents, or even reptiles. Because of this, I have years of animal handling experience of all kinds, and have even raised puppies. I am an avid walker averaging around 15 miles a day for fun, so if your little guy needs walking, I would love to help out. I will be working a full-time in-person job until July 31st, but am available weekends and evenings. Starting in August, I will be working remote which will allow me a lot more flexibility with watching your baby! Your home is your rules, and we will abide by it. That means if there are no animals allowed on the furniture, we will do just that. I can provide walking, litter box cleaning, feeding, and I can play with your animals. If more is needed, we can absolutely talk about that and I would love to help!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gloucester City
Amazing! I have two very high-demand dogs—one senior dog with all the extra needs that come with age, and an adolescent with tons of energy and a serious love of mischief. Lee does an incredible job with both of them. They’re great at communicating with me about anything that comes up and are wonderful at handling all the “extras” that come with a senior dog and a young dog who is still learning. I feel completely confident knowing they’re in Lee’s care!

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.

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 Gloucester City 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.
