“Ashley was great with my fur baby, Samson. She was on time for each drop in visit and took great care of him exactly as instructed. I would reccommend Ashley to care for your fur babies. Samson gives her 5 stars. :)”
“Veronica did a great job! She offered and came for a pre- visit to see the house and meet our cat. While we were away, Veronica sent new pictures and made an effort to find our cat and give her a scratch each day! (Not something other Rover sitters have done)”
“Tess was very lovely! She was very understanding when things changes as far as logistics and was flexible when it came to adding an additional task. I would definitely have her check in on my animals again!”
“Dina always does a wonderful job with our cats! She pays attention to details and always makes us feel like our cats are well taken care of. We will definitely use her again!”
“Jyllian was absolutely amazing as my cat sitter. I was away on an extended trip and was nervous about having to leave my cat for that long. She went above and beyond with updating me and provided very detailed summaries each day along with so many pictures which showed how much love she put into caring for my cat. Not only that, but she is a vet tech so that made me feel even more comfortable in case something went wrong. She truly has the biggest heart for animals and I would very easily recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much, Jyllian!!!!”
“This is my second time booking with Kathleen. She was able to help with my pup at last minute when I was going to be gone all day. Kathleen was SO accommodating and helpful!! Kathleen showed up on time, provided pictures and updates! Thank you :)”
“Amanda was wonderfully attentive to my cat. She managed to befriend her, which is an accomplishment few before her have managed! She was a wonderful caregiver to my grumpy old girl and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future!”
About: I have been an animal lover since I was young child. I even save bugs stuck inside! I have lifelong experience providing care to all sorts of pets including rodents, dogs and cats, both inside and outside. I have very strong beliefs about taking care of animals. I feel we are blessed to have animals in our lives and should treat them with love and dignity. I highly value kindness and compassion towards humans and animals alike. I am a very patient and loving person. I enjoy spreading that love and patience to all animals. I have owned 2 dogs, both of which with severe anxiety and leash reactivity. I met with a dog trainer and learned specific ways to help dogs dealing with those. I love to be outside and walk, especially with a dog. Exercise is so important to animals. I would adore getting to know your pets! I will give them all the snuggles they deserve! During the summer, I am available almost all of the time, even on the weekends. I am a teacher so, once school starts back in the fall, I will still be an active pet-care giver, but unfortunately my schedule will change. I am not able, at this time, to care for pets at my own home. I am MORE than happy to come to your home, walk your dog, and feed and give water to your pets.
About: I have 4.5 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant, where I cared for animals with a wide range of personalities, ages, and medical needs. Growing up, I've always had multiple animals and have helped raise and care for them throughout every stage of life, from puppies to seniors. I'm comfortable handling energetic pets and administering medications when needed. Above all, I strive to provide safe, attentive, and loving care so pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available throughout the week as well as weekends for walks and drop-ins. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable and safe by following their usual routines and giving them the attention, exercise, and care they are accustomed to receiving. During drop-in visits and walks I always prioritize secure leash handling, home security, and clear communication with owners.
“Dani was amazing! I was apprehensive (first time using Rover), but I’m so glad I did. She was professional and courteous, took great care of my dogs, and was pleasant to work with. She went above and beyond in all aspects, I highly recommend!!!”
About: I have always loved dogs. In 2021, I adopted a German shepherd and joined a training group. Practicing and training with my own dog every day led to me developing a passion for walking and working with dogs. Since then, I have walked many dogs, including structured walks where we practice heel, sit, place, and other basic commands. I also have experience assisting my trainer with client lessons and dog sat overnight for a home with multiple dogs. I have experience with large dogs, and could also help them to practice walking nicely on a leash. I have worked with and walked small, medium, and large dogs, and even a very large dog. I truly care that dogs get enough mental and physical stimulation so that they can live their happiest lives. Even in rainy weather, I enjoy taking out my dog. I’d love to help more dogs get more walks and sniffs in! I have also dropped in to care for friends’ cats and am comfortable providing cat care drop ins as well. I have a fresh water aquarium at home and could feed fish too! I am a freelance writer with a flexible schedule. Currently, I prefer to walk dogs during the day or in the afternoon, but I could work with other times. I would be available to walk dogs or drop in Mondays through Fridays and some Saturdays. I’m willing to work with you! I am very respectful of others’ homes and their rules for their pets. When pet sitting in the past, I have used a lock box to access a key and returned the key to the box upon leaving the home. I am also familiar with crate training and can follow instructions for how you’d like your dog to be greeted and let out. I am able to drop in to let your dog out to the bathroom, either in your fenced in yard or on a leash. I am also available for walks, taking dogs to the park, playing, or practicing training.
“Susan is so sweet! Both my dogs were well cared for. She met ahead of time and was sure to jump right in and walk them, asked questions, got to know me and my pups, and was very thorough. We’re sadly heading out of the area but I absolutely recommend her and would use her again! Thanks for all the updates and such good care Susan!”
“Makenzie was amazing. She was kind; she asked all the right questions, which made us feel like she really cared about our pups and how we do things with / for them. We would 100% hire her again.”
About: Hi! My name is Hannah, and I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid. I have several pets of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and responsibility that goes into keeping them happy and healthy. I also volunteered for years with Feline Finish Line at Petco, where I helped care for and socialize cats while they waited to find their forever homes. I’m an active, reliable, and caring person who genuinely loves animals. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, cuddles, or just a little extra attention while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared f I’m a current student athlete at college. I’m looking for more summer hours as it will fit into my schedule. I love to go on runs and walks everyday! I care for your pet the way you want me too. If you want me to walk or run your pet I will! I also can crate them, feed them, and play with them!
About: I’ve been dog sitting for 10 years doing anything from drop in visits to walks and I’ve grown up with dogs so very comfortable around them. I am a PT student looking for a little extra income and have grown up around dogs. My siblings and I created a dog sitting & babysitting business in 2014 “triple trio services”. My availability Monday-Thursday is 6-7am and time after 4:30pm. Friday-Sunday I have more flexible availability throughout the day. I am available for stop in visits and dog walking services. I am willing to do anything from feed dogs, play with them, and take them for walks.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hershey
This was our first time using a service like this and Cassidy really gave us peace of mind. She was very friendly and prompt will all communication. She was flexible and worked with us to ensure our pups had everything they needed. We got lots of pics of the boys playing outside and enjoying their visits. The information she relayed was very helpful. We would absolutely schedule with her again.
I cannot say enough amazing things about Maria!! Having two pit bulls can be daunting to some and I am always apprehensive when leaving my pups for an extended period of time. Not everyone understands the stigma behind the bully breed so it is always a huge source of anxiety for me when I travel. She went FAR above and beyond to communicate with me and send pictures and videos of my babies daily. She instantly put me at ease and my puppies absolutely adore her. I will recommend her forever and be a lifelong rover customer with her🥰

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

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.
