“Kathy is energetic, sweet & my dog loved her! She made sure Molly was walked the full 1/2 hour, was safe and did everything she needed to do (pee & poop). I highly recommend Kathy & will be using her again.”
About: We are a pet friendly house. I have dog sat since I have been in my early 20’s. My family and I had a wonder dog for over 12 years who passed away in 2019. Now we are looking forward to opening our home to other families fur babies! I am a mom of two boys ages 9 and 12 . On occasion, I will watch my 3 year old niece in my house during the day. We live in a very dog friendly neighborhood with plenty of places to walk. We also have a yard that is partially fenced in. We can also crate your dog if needed.
“Madison has been a great regular walker for our French Bulldog Pepper! She’s on time, communicative and pays attention to what Pepper needs (such as a shorter walk on a hotter day, or a refill on her water bowl.) Would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve always loved animals, and loved a medium sized dog in my home growing up for about 9-10 years. Since having him I’ve pet sat for friends, family, family friends as requested. I’ve watched dogs overnight and for up to 9 or so consecutive months, and I’ve watched two cats for 3 months. I’ve helped my mom care for her pitbull puppy and her pointer. Any pet I watch I will love as if they were my own; and if I’m coming for an extended stay, I make sure the house is nice, clean, and smelling good so the owner can relax as much as possible coming home. Happy to do walks, feedings, extended stays, I’m not the most experienced in grooming but am willing to get the practice in if the trust is there. Let me know what you need and I’ll do what I can to support you and your fur baby🥰. I work a lot as an actor/performer, and am in between gigs. So my schedule is primarily dedicated to pet care outside of daily responsibilities When in my clients homes I stick to their rules with their pets. So if dogs on the bed/couch are a no, I’ll respect that. My goal is to make my clients animal as comfortable as possible. I even like seeing them sometime before the scheduled visit to see how our chemistry is, though I haven’t had had any bad visits. In my home I’ll care for them in the same fashion. Make sure they’re feed, take them for walks (if they’re walkers), cuddle and make sure they feel loved.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I grew up with two labradoodles, and today my family has four dogs: Walter, a dachshund, Alvin, a Scottish terrier, and Husky and Frosty, two Siberian huskies. Caring for such different breeds has taught me that every dog needs something different. Huskies need a lot of exercise and a watchful eye, since they are known escape artists. Terriers can be stubborn and need patience and consistency. Dachshunds need gentle handling to protect their backs. I’m comfortable with high-energy big dogs and small dogs alike, and I pay attention to each dog’s routine, personality, and quirks. I'm also an avid runner so I'm able to adjust to faster-paced walks/jogs if need be. I don’t have class on Tuesdays or Thursdays, and I’m also free on weekends, so I’m fully available Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays for walks, drop-ins, or longer visits. I have a car, so getting to your home is easy. I want your dog to feel just as happy and comfortable with me as they do with you. I’ll stick to their usual routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure every walk is fun and safe. Having two huskies at home, I know how sneaky some dogs can be about slipping out a door, so I’m always careful about that. I’ll treat your home like my own and send you photos after each visit so you can see how much fun your pup is having. If anything ever seems off, you’ll hear from me right away.
“Chen has been a blessing! I was looking for a reliable dog walker for a while. Chen is great with my two large labradoodles who have a tendency to pull from time to time. She is always punctual and communicative when the schedule needs to change. I appreciate that she always sends pictures and updates of how the pups are doing and keeps me posted of their shenanigans like when they got into their wet food the other day. She even cleaned it up and put the food away for me. If you are looking for someone to take care of your pups I highly recommend Chen! She is great!”
“Very gentle with my little chihuahua whippet mix. By day 4 of walks he was very excited to see Alexis when she arrived for his walk. Unfortunately, weather was so miserably hot outside, longest walk was only about 20 minutes. Shortest about 12 minutes (paid for 30 minutes walks). I would definitely use her again! Highly recommend!”

“Angela is such a wonderful and trustworthy person. It’s so comforting to know that our elder doggie Ginger is being so well taken care of. We had last minute plans and Angela was able to take Ginger for a walk to her favorite park and provided great pictures! We highly recommend Angela - my go to Ginger sitter!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of experience, especially with large breeds, reactive dogs, and pups with special needs. I’ve worked with shelter dogs and understand how to care for animals that need a little extra patience, structure, or medical support. I currently live with a rambunctious lab and two curious cats, so I’m very used to a lively, pet-filled home. Whether your dog is staying for daycare, boarding overnight, or just dropping by for a walk, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My home is pet-friendly with a fully fenced-in backyard—perfect for playtime and potty breaks. I also have experience administering medications, including for pets with ongoing health needs, and I’m comfortable accommodating special diets or routines. I truly enjoy walking and believe it’s more than just a potty break—it’s a chance for dogs to stretch their legs, explore, and get some fresh air and stimulation. I tailor each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level, whether they’re a slow sniffer or an energetic explorer. I’m happy to work with most dogs and want to provide the best possible care. Just let me know about any behaviors or needs in advance so I can be fully prepared. I look forward to meeting your furry family and making them feel right at home! I work from home, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s letting them out for frequent potty breaks, enjoying playtime in the backyard, or making sure they stick to their regular feeding and medication schedule, I’m able to be fully present and responsive to their needs. My flexible routine means your pup will never be left alone for long, and I can easily adjust to accommodate their unique rhythms and preferences. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m visiting them in theirs, I treat them like part of the family. In my home, dogs have plenty of space to relax and play, including access to a securely fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. I keep a consistent routine for meals, walks, and play, and I’m mindful of any special instructions, from medications to behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain the pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, provide lots of affection and enrichment, and make sure their space stays clean and safe. My goal is always to keep your pet happy, healthy, and stress-free in your absence—whether they’re with me or in their own home.
About: I have taken care of friend's pets going back 20 plus years. I also have my own two dogs for 6 years now. I enjoy interacting with dogs and playing tug of war or fetch a ball. I was a math and science teacher but now I work part-time tutoring students. I love to get out and walk and move around with my dogs and I love meeting new dogs and giving them attention. I have a secure back yard and my neighborhood is very pet friendly with many dogs. There are several parks within walking distance (including across the street from my house) that are perfect for a nature walk. I have a comfortable family room with a bean bag chair and plenty of places for a pet to relax.
“We are so happy Nate agreed to walk our 3 big dogs! He was on time every day. They were always excited to see him and the pups responded very well to him. By the end of the week they were walking better for Nate than they do for us! Nate will definitely be our first choice the next time we need someone to walk our dogs.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Havertown is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Havertown
We absolutely love Olivia! She has been wonderful and incredibly patient with Bear, who definitely has a personality of his own. 😊 She does such a great job reading his mood and adapting to whatever kind of day he is having, which has made such a difference. She is also a fantastic communicator, dependable, and genuinely seems to care about Bear. With a recent change in my work schedule, having her help has been a HUGE relief and has made life so much easier for me. I feel completely comfortable knowing Bear is in such good hands. We are so grateful to Olivia—and I know Bear is pretty happy about it too! 🐾❤️
Helena went above and beyond! I reached out last minute because I was stuck at work and she was able to walk my dog. She took the time to make sure my dog was comfortable and familiar with her before they went for a walk. She also refilled his water bowl! My dog is very timid and shy with new people but he warmed to Helena with just a few treats.
Alyssa is so wonderful!! I am thankful and relieved knowing I have a caring and reliable dog walker/sitter for my precious senior dog, Tanner. Alyssa also does a great job giving Tanner his medication after walks. I couldn’t recommend her enough. Thank you Alyssa!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Havertown. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Havertown after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Havertown. On Rover:
- 87% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
