“Robert was very attentive to our dog. He took him on walks and spent a lot of time hanging out with him. He kept us updated throughout our trip and sent lots of pictures. We were very happy with him. I would highly recommend him and will use him again!”
“Another perfect booking with Wendy, except this time she helped with more than the dogs. I needed coverage for my mom who just had surgery and Wendy was there to make sure things went smoothly while no one in the family could be home. Trustworthy and compassionate, couldn't ask for more from someone coming into your home!”
“Sierra was wonderful with both of our dogs and staying at our house to make sure the dogs were well cared for. She even helped us out preparing our house for an open house the weekend she was here and taking both dogs out for the couple hours the house was showing . Thank you so much Sierra for all of your help.”
About: Ever since i was a kid i went to some of my neighbors dogs to ask to play with them. For many years, me and my family have dogsit many of my moms friends dogs at our house for extended periods of time. Im currently working part time couple days a week at a retirement community and a full time student locally at bucks county community college. I also play baseball for my community college. We have 2-3 hour practices 5 days a week with games. However since im local i can drop by and walk dogs with the free time that i have which during the week is when im not in class or at baseball. I care with them using quality time. I enjoy playing and sitting with them whichever they prefer. I believe i take care of myself well and i want to do the same for the dog.
“Gianna stayed at our place for 2 nights while we got married- our apartment was left in great condition and we she left us feeling comfortable about Stevie, we didn't worry about a thing! She did a great job with our quirky dog and we'd love to book with her again!”
About: Dogs are family, and that is how I treat every visit. I have spent 12 years caring for my family dog and now my own, along with regular walks, drop-ins, and overnight care for the pets of neighbors, friends, and family. I am comfortable with dogs of every size. Millie, the Bernese Mountain Dog in my photos, is my boyfriend's dog and lives at his house, but I walk and care for her often. At over 100 pounds, so I can handle larger dogs who may pull on walls. I am experienced with administering oral medications, managing leash-reactive dogs on walks, and handling standard crate and feeding routines. I keep detailed notes on each pet's needs and quirks, and I always have your vet's information on hand in case of an emergency. You will never have to wonder how your dog is doing, because I am happy to send updates throughout a visit. I am available for early morning visits and again toward the end of the workday and into the evening, which suits pet parents who need care before or after their own workday. Midday visits may be possible with advance notice. I have some weekend availability as well; just message me and we will coordinate. Safety Your pet's safety comes first. Dogs stay leashed and harnessed any time we are outside, including in shared hallways, elevators, and lobbies, since neighbors and other dogs can appear around a corner without warning. I check the weather before every walk and adjust: short routes and shaded paths in the heat, and less time outside in the cold. Before the first visit, I make sure your vet's information, any medications, and other specifics are written down or saved in the Rover app for easy reference. We can go over detailed instructions at the meet and greet or by message beforehand. If anything seems wrong, you will hear from me immediately. Trust I work full time in HR, so confidentiality and the careful handling of sensitive information are things I take seriously. I treat your keys, door codes, and home with that same standard of care. Keys are never labeled with an address or unit number, and they are stored securely in my home when not in use. You will receive photos and an update with every visit. I never bring anyone along, and I never share photos of your pet publicly without asking first. If my plans change, you will hear about it early rather than at the last minute. Environment In your home, I stick to the areas you tell me to use and leave everything as I found it, including lights, doors, and the thermostat. I also pick up after your pet and tidy anything we have used before I leave.
“Sometimes its hard to trust your home and pets with someone. Alyssa was awesome!! We received updates, photos and videos of our boys while we were away. Alyssa has a wonderful friendly personality and she definitely cares about animals!! We will 100% be using her again in the near future!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, and have experience volunteering at a local cat sanctuary! I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs with medical conditions and can administer medications (including aerosols) if given instructions. Some experience with teaching basic commands (ex. sit, stay) to dogs. I’m a recent graduate looking to fill my summer with some extra joy! I love spending time with any and all animals, and would be happy to accommodate your scheduling needs. Currently available full time. Safety is my number one priority, whether in your home or out and about on a walk! I want to meet your needs, so that you and your pet(s) are happy, safe, and comfortable.
About: My name is Angie. I currently work in the veterinary field with cats and dogs. I have worked in the large animal field as well in the past for farm animals. I have 3 dogs at home but have had cats, bearded dragons, fish, birds and even an african tortoise. I would love to meet some new furry (or even not so furry) friends. I would treat them like they are my own pets. I have a compassion for all living things and it's a passion I would like to pursue now that my children are older and I have some more free time. I do work at a vet hospital 4-5 days a week but other than work, I am available to pet sit in your home or just pop in for walks, feeding and cuddle time if that is all that is required for your pet. I have 3 large dogs at home who are my world. They are trained to stay in our yard or be on a lead outside. They all are on allergy specific diets and medications so I am no stranger to medical issues in dogs. I have also fostered everything from extra small puppies/dogs to extra large dogs.
“Simone was kind, communicative, and sent us lots of photos and updates of our two dogs (one of whom is a senior). It was so easy to trust Simone with your very loved pets - which is beyond important to us. We will absolutely be leaning on Simone regularly in the future and feel so relieved to have found her!!”
“We were worried our dog Lucky wouldn’t adjust to anyone new, but Natalie was amazing! She played so well with our tiny Yorkshire Terrier, and he loved her - didn’t even miss us! Highly recommend her pet-sitting services!”
“Victoria was great to work with. She was very timely and provided daily pictures and updates which was nice. We had some last minute changes to our schedule and she was very flexible and willing to stay later into the night to make sure we have coverage for the dogs. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of pets. From small to medium to large dogs and cats to rats, hamsters, rabbits and guinea pigs to non-venomous snakes and lizards, I’ve been able to take parts in a number of fluff balls and scaly critters lives. I have experience in training young pups, litter training small mammals, and habituating reptiles. I like to be active, giving your pet all the attention they need. I do work a full time job that takes me away from the house from 7-3:30. I fit in a breakfast and a walk before leaving in the morning. From June 22-August 17, I work mon-thurs. the rest of the year is mon-fri I will walk your dog a minimum of 2 times a day, as well as play with them (provided there is a yard/space). I can continue training routines and generally spend much of my day giving attention to your pet. Additionally, if you maintain a garden or have potted plants, I will keep them happy and healthy as well
“Joshua took a last minute booking and spent the day with Kenny. He was on time, kind and communicated well. Couldn’t have asked for better. We look forward to working with him again 🙂🐕🦺”
About: Unique qualities that set me apart from other sitters: Individualized Approach: I understand that each pet is unique. I can adapt to their needs, whether it’s a little one, a senior pet, or a pet with special requirements. Love and Care: I genuinely care for each pet as if they were my own. I’m ready to provide them with all the necessary care and attention. If you have any additional questions or requests, feel free to ask! Daily Routine: Morning Walks and Feeding: I start the day with a brisk walk and feeding. This helps my pet get some energy and nourishment to kickstart the day. Playtime and Training: I incorporate time for play and training to keep my pet physically and mentally fit. Midday Breaks: If possible, I take a break during the day to let my pet out for a bathroom break and some fresh air. Evening Walks and Feeding: Another walk in the evening followed by dinner. This helps my pet burn off any excess energy and prepare for a restful night. In My Home Comfortable Environment: I ensure my home is pet-friendly, with safe spaces for pets to explore and relax. Routine: I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime to help pets feel secure and comfortable. Socialization: Pets have the opportunity to interact with other animals, which can be beneficial for their social skills. Monitoring: I keep a close eye on pets to ensure they are healthy and happy, addressing any issues promptly. In the Client’s Home Familiar Surroundings: Pets often feel more comfortable in their own home, so I follow their usual routines and habits. Personalized Care: I tailor my care to the specific needs and preferences of each pet, ensuring they receive the attention and care they are used to. Communication: I keep the pet owner updated with regular reports and photos, so they can feel reassured about their pet’s well-being. Safety and Security: I ensure the home is secure and that pets are safe, following any specific instructions provided by the owner.

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Tuck was recovering from surgery and needed extra care and attention, especially since he couldn’t be left alone. She was absolutely amazing with both Tuck and Odin! She followed all of our instructions carefully, made sure Tuck was comfortable, safe, and happy throughout his recovery, and took wonderful care of Odin as well. She was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our boys were in good hands. I’m truly grateful for the love and care she showed them. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Robert is our go‑to pet sitter for our beloved Doberman, Tank. Whether it’s house sitting or 30‑minute walks, his love, respect, and knowledge of (large) dogs, along with his attentiveness to Tank’s medical needs, put our hearts and minds completely at ease. We know Tank isn’t just cared for, but truly enjoys his time with Robert! We receive daily updates with pictures, and Robert goes above and beyond by spoiling Tank with extra affection and attention. On top of being an exceptional pet sitter, he’s also a wonderful house guest. Thank you for all you do, Robert!
Victoria was great to work with. She was very timely and provided daily pictures and updates which was nice. We had some last minute changes to our schedule and she was very flexible and willing to stay later into the night to make sure we have coverage for the dogs. We will definitely be using her in the future.
Thank you Sam for all your time and care taking care of the girls. We truly hope to see you soon. Samantha was truly an outstanding sitter. Sam took great care of my two girls while I had a long work day. Sam was very respectful and wonderful with my girls. Sam kept in touch with me from time of arrival to finished for day. Sam sent pictures and kept me update to how the girls were doing through out the day. I can not say enough wonderful things about Sam. Sam is a great sitter who is caring and attentive with dogs. I would highly recommend. Thanks again Sam-truly the best. 5 stars

The average cost of House Sitting in Holicong is $69 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $69 and $69 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Holicong walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Holicong maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Holicong 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 sitter.
