About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since as early as I can remember. Honestly I get along with animals better then people! We've always had a dog and more recently cats. My in-laws ask for my help when they take a trip and I am always happy to help! Currently I am caring for my kids during most of the day but I am open on evenings and weekends as needed! I'll try to fit anything in that I can! I'll always greet the animals first and make sure they are comfortable with me. Then I check for water and food. Once I make sure those are good we are off for play time or walk time!
“Sadie was wonderful. She agreed to watch my cats within a week of the booking, made time to come meet them prior, and took great care of them during. She communicated with me throughout and sent a lot of pictures. A very reliable pet sitter!”
“We were away from home for a long trip and Sadie did a fantastic job feeding and spending time with our cats. I appreciated her updates, photos, and great communication when questions came up! Our cats are our babies so it’s such a peace of mind to know they were cared for while we were away!”
“Diana was wonderful with our two German shepherds. We went on a day trip and she visited our home twice to let the dogs out and make sure they got exercise. It was a relief to know that the older one got attention and the young (anxious) one didn't miss his dad too much!”
“Sophie was wonderful with my puppy! She kept great communication throughout the entire time, sent me the cutest photos every day, and took him on nice walks. He looked so happy and comfortable with her, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She followed all of my instructions very well, and I would definitely trust her to take care of him again. Highly recommend!”
“Alyssa took amazing care of Gus! He really enjoyed seeing her every day, getting lots of play time and snuggles! She did everything perfectly and I will definitely rebook with her in the future! Great communication and photos!”
“Ashley was prompt, stayed the whole 30 minutes to play with our pup, communicated the entire time and even took the cutest photos of our puppy! She’s great and will be using her again. 😊”
“Siyani helped us so much by being Bella's personal buddy while we hosted a function at our home! Bella still gets overstimulated with a lot of guests at our house and having Siyani walk her around, play with her, and help her get water when needed was an amazing help! Thank you so much! 💓”
“Heather is absolutely wonderful. She has pet sat twice for my two boys (cats). I trust her so when I leave I never feel worried or the need to check the app which frees my mind to focus on other things. Heather is kind, compassionate, respectful of our home, and most importantly she loves our two boys and takes excellent care of them. When we return the boys are calm, content, sweet as ever, and our home looks great. Heather’s notes, pics and videos are a delight to read and view. We will continue to ask Heather to pet sit whenever we travel. 5 stars!”
About: I’ve been walking my friend’s’ dogs over the years and I absolutely love it. I’d be more than happy to check in your pe, take them for a walk and make sure that they don’t feel alone while you have to be out. I work from home two weeks of the month currently and will be expecting to be fully home by February. During those weeks, I can come anytime of day but the other two weeks, I’ll be available Thursday-Sunday. I’ll confirm that your pet is healthy and ensure that they’re comfortable with my presence / actions. I’ll also follow all instructions provided to me and share updates after each visit.
“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!!!!”
“Brandy was responsive, caring and attentive. I applaud her efforts getting to know our cat. Her reports are genuine and detailed. We appreciate the love of animals she has that makes her such a responsible petsitter. We highly recommend requesting her for your next vacay.”
“I am so thankful for Beth! She was quick to respond and took great care of my dogs in a last minute booking. She sent pictures and gave a great update for how the visit went. I will definitely be using her in the future when I need a drop in visit!”
About: ***Prices are negotiable!*** I have had a total of four dogs in the family (currently two golden retrievers!). I am very experienced with dog care and have been working with Rover since around March. I have watched and walked a variety of dogs, from a Husky puppy, to a Chihuahua, to a German Shepard! I have also visited family, friends, and my neighbor’s houses to relieve their pups or take them on a walk. I have house sat at my aunt’s house for her dog as well. I have a love for all animals- I used to own a bunny and I also have three cats. I would love to meet yours! I promise to take care of your pet as if it were my own. I recently started work as a BHT and my schedule is 8-4:30 Mon-Fri. I am open to any pet sittings or walking outside of that timeframe as long as you are pretty close to where I live or my job in Middletown! I will do my best to respond to messages as soon as possible, but please forgive me if it takes some time to get back to you due to work or other responsibilities :) Like previously stated I have experience visiting other’s homes to take care of pets. My most recent visit was a last minute favor for my friend that dog sits who had a client job she couldn’t make it to. I like to take notes when given instructions on pet care and I put 110% in making sure someone’s pet is safe and well cared for. The dog I took for a walk recently has had past issues with other dogs and humans so I practiced extra caution and followed all given instructions of using a muzzle and steering clear of anyone on the sidewalks. I do not mind taking care of multiple pets including cats (or other small critters) as I have five total pets in my home. Others would describe me as reliable and friendly. I am very flexible and open to any service requests for your pets! I am a huge animal lover and will provide excellent care for all.
“Stevy did a great job with my pup. He enjoyed her company while I was away, and it was great to see him happy in the pictures that she sent. I highly recommend booking with Stevy.”

Siyani provided prompt, great care for our two cats, including one who is a bit of an escape artist. We had no worries while we were away, and the kitties seemed pretty content and everything else in the house was in order. I would definitely recommend her services

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 878 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hoernerstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hoernerstown. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
