“Glenna confirmed the booking on short notice and kept me posted every step of the way on her visit. Slugger has a lot of energy but she knows how to navigate it and keep him on track while on his walks. I know he’s always in good hands when Glenna comes to check him.”
“Courtney was amazing, took such great care of our pup and was very responsive from day one. I would highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Dog whisperer. Very upbeat, energetic. Provided details on visits and seems to love her job. Was always on time and stayed for the entire durations. Everything you’d want in a sitter for your pet. This was our first time using the service. We will definitely select her next time we need sitter services.”
“Matthew was great. I reached out on shorter notice and Matthew was eager to help which was a relief. He was very professional setting up a quick meet and greet and provided numerous photos and updates about the drop-ins. I would absolutely recommend Matthew and would rehire in the future without hesitation.”
“Jessica is the best! She lets our pup out every single weekday religiously, takes her for walks, plays with her, lifeguards for her, and even dries her off afterwards! I knew Jessica would be great for our dog because she is a multiple-pet owner herself, and has years of experience with dogs and cats. I honestly and truly trust that our dog is in good hands with Jessica!”
“SO grateful we found Megan. Other than enjoying her visit notes and pictures, I did not worry about the boys at all while away, genuinely felt confident that they are receiving the best care under her watch. Extremely reliable, communicative and a great sitter! 🥰”
“Scarlet was great as our kittens caregiver! She followed all the instructions I left her (a lot) and kept us updated with texts and pics of how they were doing. Would contact her again!”
“What an amazing gem! Lila was just what we needed! She is always early, ambitious and communication was impeccable! My home was happy when I returned all the fur babies seemed happy and relaxed! My pups told me she’s the one and they want her back in October!”
About: I've lived with and cared for dogs for my entire life; I love all animals, big, small, young, old and anywhere in between, the more animals the better! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, and fish and I get along with all of them. I am available for early mornings and late nights as well as weekends. I am also familiar with and unphased by the less glamorous sides of pet care, I don't mind cleaning up after puppy accidents, I have some experience grooming our shaggier four legged friends, and I know how to administer most puppy medications. I work from home so my availability is wide open for whatever you and your animals need. I am an extremely active person so there is no limit to much I will love and play with your pup, but I will also be patient and sensitive to nervous dog and cats. There is no puppy personality that I don't love. I can't wait to meet your dog! I work remote most days. I also have weekends and evenings available for more involved activities. When im not pet sitting i like to take my own dog for hiking/ camping adventures! A typical day starts with breakfast and a nice romp around the yard, or brisque walk around the neighborhood so your dog can go potty and get out some morning energy. I have a flexible schedule at work so i can take frequent breaks to play and attend to your critters needs. In the evenings, im free again and i like to spend time being active, whether its a long walk, a game of fetch, or even an adventure to the park
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and I’ve raised my Labrador from a tiny puppy to the sweet senior she is today. Caring for her through every stage—training, high energy years, and now her slower senior days has given me hands on experience with all kinds of needs and personalities. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at once and have handled overnight stays with up to six dogs for several days at a time. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, or just keeping everyone calm and happy, I’m comfortable managing a busy, furry household. I am currently a college student with a very flexible schedule. I would love to be able to help people out in my free time, whether that be just letting a dog out or taking them for a walk. I am completely available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays until four. Even outside of these three days I have a lot of flexibility! I care for other people’s animals as if they are my own. I am a huge dog lover and always have enjoyed caring for them and spending time with them. I am more than happy to accommodate to any animals needs and would go out of my way to follow people’s requests for their fur babies!
About: Hi I’m Kendra and I love dogs of all sizes and ages! I grew up with two family dogs, whom I love very much! You will enjoy that I will give your dog/dogs my full attention.I will give them tons of loving pets and hugs as well as play with them until they want to quit! I will also clean up after them after they go to the bathroom. In addition, I can feed them and fill up their water bowls. Anything your dogs need I will try to provide. I will keep your dog safe and protected while I am there. He/she will surely enjoy their time with me. I can’t wait to meet your adorable furry friend in the near future and can’t wait to work with you! I’m currently a new mom who works part-time so my schedule is very clear! I am free for walks, boarding, and day care any day of the week :) My house has a big yard which makes it very easy for quick potty trips and play. In addition my neighborhood is nice and big with fun trails and parks nearby that I can take your furry friends to! I can crate your dogs if needed and they are also allowed on furniture if that’s what they are used to :)
“Jenni was WONDERFUL! On her second visit she asked if she could bring her dog for a playdate with her boyfriend and she sent photos and videos of happy, tail wagging pups playing ball together! I'm going to hire Jenni to come more regularly, hopefully with her pup! I will definitely use her for boarding because now my guy will be right at home with them all!”
“Thank you Lisa! To all looking for a Rover pet sitter. Lisa has watched Brooklyn several times now and each visit has been great. She really takes great care of my dog, Brooklyn. I highly recommend Lisa!”
About: Hey everyone! My name is Holbert. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, from Yorkies and Shih Tzus to Saint Bernards, and I’m just as happy spending time with cats too. I’m a law student, but outside of school I really enjoy being around animals, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient with shy or nervous pets, playful with the energetic ones, and I’ll probably send you way too many funny pictures while you’re gone. I’m also very respectful of your home and your pet’s routine, so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands 😊 My schedule is pretty structured during the week, with work on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 to 5 and classes on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9 to 4. Fridays through the weekend, though, I have much more flexibility and can really dedicate my time to walks, drop ins, playtime, and hanging out with your pets. I also do my best to work pet care around my weekday schedule whenever possible, so your pet still gets the attention and consistency they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I try to keep things as comfortable and familiar for them as possible. I follow, feeding schedules, walking routines, house, rules, and any special instructions you leave for me, also making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m patient with pets who need a little extra time to warm up, and I always pay attention to their personality and comfort level. In a client‘s home, I’m also very respectful of the space. I will always leave things clean and cared for, just as I found them, if not better.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with plenty of hands on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. At home, I have three dogs a Great Dane, a pit mix, and a Border Collie mix as well as a cat, so I’m very comfortable with everything from big, strong dogs to high-energy pups and smaller pets. Having a house full of animals has taught me how important patience, consistency, exercise, and lots of attention are. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I’ll always take the time to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me. Whether your dog needs a good walk to burn off some energy, a bathroom break while you’re away, or just some extra attention and company, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m reliable, responsible, and looking forward to meeting some new four-legged friends! I am currently a student at West Chester University, I am a freshman and animal lover. I have Tuesdays and Thursdays off along with a half day on Friday, so I have plenty of time to take care of your lovely pets. I have an electric fence yard where I free run all 3. I have experience administering medications and feeding pets. I will follow instructions per request of each client.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Kennett Square is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $29 per visit. 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.
As of October 2026, there are 7,659 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kennett Square. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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. 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.

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.
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.
