“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!”
“Appreciated the help checking in on our pups with a last-minute booking! Isaiah was patient and understanding with us and our anxious pups while we navigated this first time Rover experience.”
About: I have an 11 year old senior dog who I’ve trained in eating, using the bathroom, tricks, and other manners since he was born. I’m known to my family and close friends as the pet-obsessed girl, who says hi to every animal I pass on the street. By picking me as your animal’s caretaker, your picking a complete animal-lover who will love your pets just as much as you do❤️ As a college athlete, I often take walks around my neighborhood on my own for leisurely time. I’d be over the moon happy to have a companion to take these walks with, or even take them to the park to get some play time together! Along with loving animals, I also would describe myself as being a pretty clean and organized person. However you leave your home is how I will leave it for you when you return.
“Barb is the greatest and the best! We are always happy when she has an opening for us. The dog is calm and relaxed, and we get to see the walks she took while we were gone! Barb is flexible and patient with the dog and with us. Thanks, Barb!”
“Thank you to Jaclyn for taking the last minute booking. We really appreciate her and the great care that she took of our Bunny & Howie and our home. Jaclyn sent us updates and photos which we love to see while we are away. We will absolutely book Jaclyn again. :)”
“We are repeating with Marilyn, she is just great! She has real love for the animals and we know our cat will be well cared for with her in our absence. She is our main go to for pet sitting 😊😊”
“Lucy is wonderful! She is super reliable and helped us out very last minute over the holidays. She is so great with dogs and we will definitely be using her again soon.”
“Ally is the literal best!! I was so anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time going back to work, but Ally immediately made me feel so relaxed and relieved and takes such good care of our girl when we’re at work!! She really goes above and beyond to help us and our puppy and as a new dog mom she has been such a huge help and resource to me, we are so lucky to have found her!!”
“So glad we found Rachel! Ace warmed up to her right away, and he was SO excited when I got home the day of her first drop-in…I swear he was trying to tell me he had a friend over 😂. Rachel is a great communicator and so sweet! Highly recommend!”
“I was so lucky to get Keri as my pet sitter! My cats loved her and I received so many pictures and updates! As much as I hate leaving for several days, I didn’t have to worry because Keri was so good to my kitties💛 Truly phenomenal and reliable sitter.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jenna and will absolutely use her again. This was our first time hiring her to care for our cats, and she exceeded our expectations in every way. Jenna was communicative throughout our time away, sending regular updates and photos, and was not afraid to reach out with questions when needed. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our cats were in such attentive hands. She also cleaned up any pet messes and went above and beyond, helping with our garden while we were away. What really stood out was how quickly our cats warmed up to her. One of our cats is usually shy and tends to run and hide when meeting new people, but she stayed put and happily accepted head scratches from Jenna, a true testament to her calm and caring demeanor with animals. Jenna is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. We came home to happy cats and a well cared for house, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“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!”
“Amanda took care of our three cats while we were away. She kept us in the know of what was going on at home. Leaving parts of your family is stressful but having Amanda check in on them made our travel stress free! Thank you Amanda!”
“Trederica was wonderful! Kept me updated with pictures every visit & accommodated all my needs when it came to my fur baby, would absolutely book her again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Jenkintown
We rely on Heather to take care of our cats anytime we go on vacation. She is amazing as far as taking care of their individual food needs and attention to each cat! Heather communicates every day about each cat and also provides photos of each! I highly recommend Heather for your pet's care!
We were privileged enough to have Ally care for our two cats while we went on an extended trip to take care of family business. Without a doubt, Ally is a professional and very caring for the four footed family members in her care. She is a strong recommend. There was a minor medical emergency involving our cat scratching herself too deeply, leaving an open wound. She alerted us immediately and we were able to arrange for timely vetting. We're glad to have met her through Rover and encourage you to seek her out for pet sitting you need.
Amanda is so great with animals. We have an extremely anxious cat that most other sitters never see, but came out for pets with her! Had she not taken pictures of the event, we probably wouldn't have believed it happened. She's responsible and accountable and we will definitely book Amanda again in the future.
I have both an indoor cat and an outdoor stray that I care for and Paige did a fantastic job taking care of both of them while I was away for a week. She even managed to get my timid cat to trust her, which is no small feat. I can absolutely recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
Hadiya is wonderful! It's difficult to find someone you can trust with your fur babies and your home. As soon as we met Hadiya, we knew she was the right person. We have two shy kittens (other cat sitters had taken care of them for weeks at a time and never even saw them). But they warmed up to Hadiya almost instantly! We couldn't believe it. Hadiya is detailed oriented, reliable, thorough, and so sweet with our cats. She took the time to build their trust AND got all the care tasks done too. We can't recommend her enough.
JJ is trustworthy, reliable, and took excellent care of my two kitties while I was away for almost two weeks. She dropped in every day to ensure they had their daily wet food, scooped their litter, and kept sufficient dry kibble and water available to them. My home was kept neat and clean, and she brought in my mail each day. Most importantly, she is an animal lover herself so my boys had playtime on the sunny enclosed porch - their favorite space - and affection! My experience with JJ was very positive. She is a genuinely nice person and I will definitely use her services again whenever I travel. Thanks, JJ!

As of August 2026, there are 4,551 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Jenkintown. 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.

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.
