About: I’ve taken care of pet (dogs and cats) since I was 17. I’ve watched friends and family’s dog and have a fur baby of my own. She is a 12 year old sassy cat and I’ve raised her since she was 4 weeks old. I’m free Monday- Friday. I don’t work in office anymore so have the extra time to take care of your babies! Willing to work with your schedule. Only offer walks, pet sit at your house, over night watch at your house. No services at my house due to my sassy cat :)
“Ridgley did great feeding my cat and administering his meds. She spent time hanging out with him and make sure he was a happy guy while I was happy. Highly recommend and will be booking again!”
“Julia was amazing!!!! She was great with Henry. She stopped by right on time, took him for a nice walk, and kept me updated with pictures, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while I was away. Henry seemed happy and well cared for when I got home. I'd definitely book with Julia again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Kathryn was able to accommodate a last minute request for Chloe. She is always great with her and I would recommend her to anyone! Will book with her again soon!”
“10 out of 10! Jennifer was great and kept me very well informed. My animals clearly loved her and she was able to make sure they weren't stressed while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Julianna is great with Goose! She really goes the extra mile to spend quality time with him during check-ins and work on his training. We are lucky to have her just down the street!”
“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!”
“Rachael took GREAT care of my 5 month old puppy! Watching a puppy can be a lot of more work and I couldn’t thank her enough! I would recommend her to anyone I know looking for a sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lafayette Hill
Shannon is very reliable, sweet, and accommodating. She took such good care of my 2 dogs. One of them wears diapers which she had experience with and it didn’t seem to phase her at all! I’m so happy we found Shannon and look forward to book her again! Thank you
This was my first time having Morgan care for my dog and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience! Morgan was wonderful and treated Winston like her own. She took the time to meet us beforehand, and Winston immediately took to her. Morgan is incredibly warm and genuine and it’s clear how much she truly loves and cares for dogs. I especially appreciated her detailed report cards and regular updates which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Winston looks so happy and content in every photo! We will definitely be booking with Morgan again. I highly recommend her!
Ricky is great! I booked her last minute, and she still made time to come meet me and my pup beforehand. She’s very friendly and professional. It was obvious she loves dogs and they love her. On the scheduled day, she was prompt and communicative. I’m already planning on using her again!
I cannot recommend Blythe highly enough. My dog, Bodog, is currently recovering from surgery, and she has been absolutely incredible throughout the process. She responded to my request immediately at 7am and was able to come the very same day at 4pm. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and the photo updates gave me complete peace of mind while Bodog was in her care. It was clear she treated him with genuine compassion, patience, and attention during a very important time in his recovery. I truly could not have been happier with the care she provided, and I look forward to continuing to work with her as Bodog heals. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone dependable, professional, and caring.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lafayette Hill is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $32 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 9,395 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lafayette Hill. 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.
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 Lafayette Hill 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!
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 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lafayette Hill with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
