“Kaylynn did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and cat while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared for them like they were her own. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’m always excited to meet a new furry friend! I grew up with dogs and have cared for pups of all different sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog is full of energy and ready for a long walk or would rather spend the day playing, getting belly rubs, and hanging out, I’m happy to keep them company! Friends and family have trusted me with their dogs when they’re away, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. I’m always ready for walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. My goal is to make sure your pup has a fun, happy day while you’re away! ♡ I’m currently working towards a masters and my classes are all at night. This gives me lots of flexibility to spend time with your pets during the day! I’m available for walks, drop ins, and visits throughout the weekdays, times when your pet might otherwise be home alone. Weekend availability varies, so feel free to reach out and I’ll be happy to let you know what I can accommodate. ⚠️ Quick Note on House Sitting | Boarding My standard overnight house sitting rate includes overnight care and plenty of time with your pet throughout the day, as long as they’re comfortable being left alone for up to 3 hours. This allows me to occasionally step out for groceries, errands, or other short bookings. If your pet needs constant care and cannot be left alone due to medical needs, recovery, puppyhood, or separation anxiety, just let me know before booking! I’m happy to discuss their needs and arrange an hourly rate for constant care. I have pets of my own, so I know how important it is to leave them with someone you trust. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, and whatever care they need. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. 🐾
“Meghan took great care of my cats and gave me consistent updates. She spent good time with them as well, once I got home my one cat was like, " Dad, we need to talk, this is when we play each day and you make me chase the hairy tail looking toy thing".”
“Heather is the only person we trust to watch our anxious and somewhat difficult cat. She is the only other human he likes besides us, and that is saying a lot! Would recommend 100%.”
About: I work at home and can give your pet(s) as much or as little attention as they like. Friend to dogs both large and small. Thanks. We can go on walks, fetch tennis balls, eat snacks, take naps, chill on the couch. All the good stuff. Pets have rated me two paws up. I have a fenced in yard on a quiet cul-de-sac. Our split-level home has some stairs, tile and hardwood floors, and is welcoming to puppers and doggos. Come and see.
About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, even when their family is away. Whether it’s a relaxing walk, an energetic adventure, or a drop-in visit filled with playtime, belly rubs, meals, potty breaks, or quiet companionship, every visit is tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Building trust with both pets and their families is my top priority. I take the time to make sure every dog and cat feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while keeping owners updated with plenty of photos and messages along the way. I have occasional time off, which I will be available to walk your dog or feed your dogs/cats and provide them with quality care. I have my own pets and love animals, so they will be in good hands. I will go to homes to feed or walk pets.
“Danyelle did a fine job taking care of my cat for a week of drop-in visits. She came exactly when expected and sent reports and pictures every time. She's a trustworthy and very pleasant person.”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover and a proud cat mom to my two fur babies Colby and Jack (like the cheese!). I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I grew up with cats and have cared for them, so I'm very comfortable with everything from feeding routines, to litter care to giving shy kitties the patience and gentle attention they need to feel safe. I know that every cat has their own personality and I'm happy to meet them exactly where they're at - whether that means playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company. While most of my experience is with cats, I also have experience walking and caring for dogs and I truly love spending time with them. I can take them on walks, have playtime, and make sure they get the exercise and attention they need while you're away! I treat every pet as if they're my own. I'm attentive, responsible, and happy to send you updates and photos if you'd like so that way you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make sure your fur babies feel comfortable, happy, cared for, and loved. I work full-time as a mental health therapist and I have my own private practice. My therapy practice is virtual and I work from home. This allows me to create the flexibility I need in my schedule to come take care of your pet! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to carefully follow any instructions you give me so that your pet's routine stays as consistent and stress-free as possible! I grew up with cats and currently have cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to create a calm and safe environment, especially those who may be shy or anxious. I always approach pets gently and allow them to warm up to me at their own pace. For dog walks and visits, I am always attentive to surroundings and I make sure that they are always securely leashed and safe. I'm also happy to send you photo updates so you can feel reassured and connected while you're away. I will always treat your pets with the same care, love, patience and attention that I would give my own. I know it can feel stressful leaving your pet with someone new, so I'm always happy to answer any questions you have!
“Jenna looked after my 2 cats while I was away. She was very patient with my super anxious kitty, and made him feel comfortable enough to come out of hiding. I will definitely book again in the future.”
“I was kept updated & received pictures of my senior girl when while we were away for 12 hours. She was happy & content. Becky & Christian are great to deal with!”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since I was in elementary school. We have 5 cats and 5 dogs of our own. I am a certified foster for the SPCA and several other rescues. I take medical cases and am comfortable giving medicines. All ages of pets and needs welcome! Pets are my number 1 priority. I make my schedule around the pets I am caring for! I treat them like my own and their needs come first ! I have a 6 foot fenced in yard and take dogs into my own when needed. Otherwise I watch dogs in their own environment to make them as comfortable as possible when their owners are away.
“My weird cats and I adore Allie. I volunteered at a couple of shelters / rescues and truly have some quirky cats, but Allie acted like they were as normal as they come. She was not fazed by their individual eating preferences, oral meds, and sometimes cranky attitudes. Allie also sent daily updates with photos and I have not felt this at ease traveling in a very long time. I'm sure Allie is excellent with dogs, but if you are looking for someone who is amazing with cats, this is your sitter!”
About: Hi there! I’m Sophie, I am a firm believer in using walks and playtime to bond with a dog and get them more comfortable with me. (That’s how I won over the puppy that replaced me when I went to college). I have a similar philosophy towards cats, but with a whole lot more playtime and a whole lot less outside time 😆. I am a recent college graduate and I’m working on my applications to get a job in my field, so I have time to spend all day with your pet. Just let me know what you need! Whatever works for you, I can do! I have no set schedule so I can come by any time. I do prefer to make my visits at least an hour long so they have the chance to get used to me. I will work with what’s available to me. If I’m visiting your home to keep them company I will play with their favorite toys and find their favorite spots to hang out in. I’ll play with their dogs outside if you have a fence, and I try to let them guide where we go on walks.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I have always had pets myself and I have pet sat for my friends and family for years. I am punctual and detail oriented. Whatever you and your pet need I will provide. I will always show love and respect to the pets I care for. I work at Mom's Organic Market 4 days out of the week so I have plenty of open days to take care of your pets. I live in an apartment and have a cat so my place would not be ideal for pets to stay over. Maybe another cat would be ok. I am open to that.
About: Nice to meet you! I just graduated from Temple University. I grew up with cats and taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs throughout college. I work from home, so I can take care of your fur baby with ease! I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility. I can do daily check-ins or overnight stays for anyone with an anxious fur baby! Every visit, I will greet your cat with a gentle approach. If you leave me their favorite toys and treats, i’ll make sure they are active and rewarded! I work from home so I can do overnight stays for any anxious fur babies!
About: Hi! I’m Camille, and if there’s a dog at a party, that’s probably who I’m talking to. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal is different. Some pets want nonstop playtime, some want cuddles, and some prefer their space. I take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop in visit, or company while you’re away, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. Expect lots of updates, photos, and communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: a happy pet, a stress free owner, and plenty of tail wags along the way. 🐾💕 Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. As a server, I’m used to being active, managing my time efficiently, and staying attentive to the needs of others in a fast-paced environment. My work schedule gives me flexibility during certain parts of the day, allowing me to dedicate time to walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care is a natural fit for me. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household rules to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe in my care. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have experience caring for both small and large breeds, including administering medications and sticking to routine schedules. From long walks to playful fetch sessions or cozy snuggles, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and part of the family. I’m a mother of one, as well as a proud pet mom to a 6-year-old Maltese and a 5-year-old tuxedo cat. Working from home gives me plenty of flexibility to provide consistent, reliable care. I’m detail-oriented, caring, and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. When I’m in your home, I’ll care for your pet just like I do my own. I’ll stick to their routine so they feel safe and comfortable, make sure they’re fed, walked, and loved on, and handle any medications they need. You can count on lots of updates and photos, because I know how much peace of mind it brings to see your pet happy while you’re away.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ivyland
Sydney was excellent and careful in helping us out with our house bunny for the long weekend fairly last minute! She took the time to come over for a meet and greet beforehand, which really underscored her attention to detail and commitment to doing everything just as we would. She took on caring for him despite his senior bunny needs (including oral medication) and was gentle and caring. She was responsive and communicative, and took pictures every time which made it even easier to feel comfortable and sure that he was doing well. He was happy to see us when we got back and in great spirits! We would definitely recommend Sydney to anyone in need of a reliable and careful pet sitter, and would not hesitate to book with her again!
Emma helped us out for a second time. This was an additional day that was not well communicated in our household, but she was able to step in and help with this day tacked onto the end of the original request. Her flexibility is very much appreciated! She follows directions well, responds to questions about our cats, and leaves things in good shape when she’s done. We recommend her highly.
Kaylynn did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and cat while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared for them like they were her own. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
Maddie took great care of our 2 cats while we were away, especially our one kitty that requires a daily medication pill. Although the daily pilling was not a favorite activity for our cat, Maddie showed patience and did her best to gain her trust. I felt at ease knowing Maddie works as a Vet Tech and has experience with animals. She made sure to give treats and participate in daily playtime. We will request Maddie again in the future.

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
