“Loghan did a great job taking care of our 16 year old shih tzu. She was very kind and compassionate as well as respectful of our home. We would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Maggie had a great time with Alex! He was very attentive, kept me updated and made my very anxious girl relaxed. We will definitely use him again to keep Maggie company!”
“It was such a relief having Hailey watch our dog while we were away. She took such good care of him, especially considering caring for his allergies can be a bit of a daunting task. Not only was he well cared for but he was definitely given a lot of love by her while we were away. Which also means the world to us. We would recommend her to anyone!”
“Excellent communication and was very responsive to my request for a sitter. Sent videos and photos of my dogs to keep me updated. The dogs looked to be having a blast with her. Would use her again.”
“Gabrielle was so great and helped us out somewhat last minute over the holidays! She took great care of both of our dogs and our home and we will definitely be using her services again!”
“Devyn was over and beyond with my dog Teddy! She was prompt, answered my texts in a timely manner and most of all was so kind to Teddy!! Devyn left my home better than I left it! When I got home Teddy was content, happy to see me but not stressed at all. We are so grateful to find Devyn as a pet sitter💖”

“Dawn was a perfect match for our shy sensitive older border collie mix. This was our first experience having a pet sitter and she made us feel completely at ease. Wilson was very comfortable with her and she has excellent patience and connection to dogs. She knows how to accept them for who they are and let them naturally warm up to her. She was perfect for our sensitive boy! We will definitely reach out to her in the future.”
“Isaiah exceeds all my expectations for taking care of and staying with my dog at my house. He is responsible, provides regular updates including pictures, and treats Blitz as his own dog.”

I've cared for dogs with disabilities and special medication requirements. I am particular about the clients I accept. If you’re a multi-dog owner, please note I will accept clients with 1 or 2 dogs. I require an initial phone consultation and in-person meet and greet prior to booking to ensure we are a good fit. My clients understand I work full-time in Warminster and am happy to accommodate their needs outside of my work hours. I only dogsit in my clients' homes and required reasonable sleeping accommodations for the duration of my stay. Contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to speaking with you.

I require a place to sleep and shower. When I stay in a client's home, I treat it respectfully as if it were my own home. I am happy to accommodate any additional housekeeping requests, within reason.
“Wendy has been simply amazing. What a fabulous experience. This was our first experience together, and Wendy is a five star+, if there was such a thing. I will certainly be using her again. Thank you for an amazing and stress free experience while I was away from Daisy for a few days!”
About: Hi! My name is Maura. I’ve owned and cared for dogs for most of my life. I also have experience caring for cats, birds, chickens and horses. I’m an experienced house and pet sitter— I’ve cared for both grown animals and little ones alike. I’m comfortable providing company, keeping the animals on a schedule, and even continuing training schedules while you’re gone. I can provide references if needed! At the moment I’m in-between jobs, having just completed a summer internship abroad. So most of my day is spent job searching. I like to get outside and go for walks or runs on the daily, so oftentimes I’ll take my dog with me. I am also a moderate early-riser. I’m naturally up around 7:30, and I’ll usually feed the pets first thing. However, I do get up earlier if that’s the schedule the pets are on! When it comes to taking care of the pets in your home, I usually try and follow the established routines that they’re already used to. Throughout the day, I’ll take breaks from whatever chores or work I’m doing on my computer to spend time with the pets, playing or walking outside. Sometimes we just sunbathe ☀️ while I read a book in the late afternoon. It depends on the pet, but generally it’s just a lot of spending time together!
About: I have taken care of family dogs for almost my entire life. From young puppies, middle aged, and even sick older dogs. I enjoy taking care of dogs and making them feel comfortable and happy. I am experienced with all types of feeding methods, giving medication, and anything necessary for your pet to be safe, healthy, and happy. I am currently unemployed so I can help with pet care almost anytime of the day or week. I love animals and enjoy taking care of them while also helping those who need pet sitting. I currently have a fenced yard but I do not offer pet sitting in my home. I would be open to doing it in certain circumstances. I offer pet sitting in clients home and would be willing to spend hours at my clients home and even sleep over if necessary.
“Brian and Georgette took excellent care of our two dogs and our home while we were away. They provided daily updates and photos / videos of our pups as well, which we truly appreciated. We highly recommend them!!”
“Bill was amazing. We knew right from the get-go that he would be responsible and take care of our wild animals. We will definitely have him back and HIGHLY recommend his services!”

Fortunately Hailey was available to care for Rosie while I was away for almost 2 weeks. It’s always a huge relief when she is available! I know Rosie will be at home, well cared for, happy and content. I know Hailey will check in with me but knows what to do in the very likely event I am without WiFi and can’t respond. I can relax while away knowing that Rosie is in Hailey’s capable, loving hands.
Another great experience with Joelle! I don’t even wonder how it’s going anymore when she stays with our cats lol. I am so at ease knowing she’s caring for them. They eat so well when she is there and are so comfortable with her. She’s truly the best and our first choice for cat sitting! I also feel comfortable with her in our home and she leaves it better than she found it! 😊 thanks again!
We had such a wonderful experience with Kyle! He took amazing care of our dogs while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. His communication was fantastic. He kept us updated, sent pictures, and made it clear that our our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for! It’s always hard leaving your pets behind, but having someone you can trust makes all the difference. We came home to two very happy dogs! We would absolutely recommend Kyle to anyone who needs pet sitting! 🐾💛
Gianna was great with our dog who has separation anxiety while we were gone for multiple days and nights. She checked on her regularly throughout the day & stayed overnight. She was in constant communication with pictures and just general notes on her wellbeing. She was amazing and we definitely will be using her services next time!
I can’t recommend Danyelle. From the very first meeting, it was clear how caring, reliable, and attentive she was. She treated my dog like her own—sending regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned, which says everything. It’s such a relief to know I have someone I trust completely with my fur baby. I will absolutely be using Danyelle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, loving dog sitter!

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 Ivyland 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 Ivyland 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Ivyland 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters 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 sitter.
