“Molly was amazing! Went to Jersey shore for 2 weeks and she handled EVERYTHING! Feedings, extra walks, picking up the mail… she was above and beyond. Great at communicating and lots of photos and details. Always on time. So responsible and mature.”
About: I have taken care and loved all ages of dogs my whole life. From owning them to watching the neighbors and friends. I have also worked in a professional setting for about 5+ years and have had experience caring for all different breeds and their specific individual needs. In addition, I have training experience with Penn Vet Working Dog Center as well as some classes I attended at a training school! I’m grateful for all the experiences I’ve had and all the ones waiting to be had! I have currently care for 3 different types of animals (cat, gecko, and turtle!) I did have a dog as well however she sadly passed recently. I am able to crate dogs as well as provide medications and keep up with dietary restrictions. I am able to walk as well as play and spend time with the pups! For cats I am able to scoop litter and give as many or as little cuddles as the cat may enjoy! I’m good with feeding as well as administering meds to cats
About: I have Taken care of my family dog my entire life and overnight pet sit for many families in the past. I have worked with all types of dogs I am currently a part time student so I have lots of time that I spend at home and I’m pretty flexible! I have a part time job as well. I know the area well and I have done a lot of walks and sitting with dogs around philly in the past! I’ll be in the area for at least 3 more years for school.
About: Hi! I'm Alexis, and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk, keeping your cat company while you're away, or staying overnight in your home, my goal is always the same - to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're gone. I've been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic huskies to laid-back pugs and cocker spaniels. I also have years of experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own unique routine and personality. Outside of Rover, I work full-time in a leadership role where reliability, communication, and attention to detail are essential every day. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully, keep your home secure, arrive when expected, and treat your pets like family. You'll receive regular photo updates and messages during every visit, so you'll always know how your pet is doing. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I currently work full-time during the day, which makes me a great fit for afternoon and evening drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight house sitting. I keep my calendar up to date and always communicate promptly, so you'll know exactly when to expect me. Reliability is important to me, and I strive to provide dependable care that fits seamlessly into your pet's routine. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and supported in their normal routine. I follow your instructions closely and treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I also understand that every pet is different. Whether your dog thrives on long walks or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I adjust my care to fit their personality and routine.
About: I can definitely say I’ve grown up surrounded by animals. Throughout my life, my family has always had dogs, and at one point we had three living in our home at the same time. While I don’t currently have any pets of my own, I have plenty of experience caring for my longtime boyfriend’s dogs whenever his family is away. About three years ago, I moved in with a roommate who has a cat, which was my first real introduction to caring for cats. If I’m being honest, I fell in love with them almost instantly! While dogs will always be where I feel the most comfortable because of my lifelong experience with them, I truly enjoy spending time with both dogs and cats. I always make it a priority to make sure dogs get plenty of playtime, attention, exercise, and affection so they feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I am freshly graduated with my masters degree in social work. I’m currently working part time as a server while also job searching and studying for my ASWB. I serve around four to five days a week but my schedule varies weekly. Keeping your pet safe is always my top priority. I will carefully follow all instructions you provide regarding your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications (if needed), and any special care requirements. I will make sure doors, gates, and windows are securely closed at all times to prevent escapes and will only use leashes or harnesses as instructed during walks. I’ll also keep an eye out for anything that could be unsafe, such as foods, household items, or objects your pet shouldn’t have access to. In addition to keeping your pet physically safe, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe and happy.
About: I am a proud pet parent to two fur babies, a pug and tabby cat. Our pets are important members of our family. Your pet will get the love and care they deserve while you are away. I know the importance of trusting a good pet sitter. I work part-time. I have flexibility in my day as well as evenings and weekends. I have a lot of availability in the summer as well. I can care for pets in my home. They would be a good playmate for my dog. We have a fenced in yard. My dog loves walks. I would follow your specific instructions when coming into your home.
“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!”
“Dana was wonderful! My dogs love her, and she always gives them extra love and affection. She kept me posted on how they were doing while I was gone, and sent me photos! I would absolutely use her again.”
About: We love dogs so much! Our pup Penny loves to relax and play with others dogs. She is very kind and gets along with all dogs. Tyler works full time mostly from home but goes into the office every other Wednesday+Thursday. We have a fenced in backyard and Tyler loves taking breaks to stretch her legs to walk the dogs. We have a fenced in yard, and dogs are allowed on the furniture. We can easily crate your dog if needed and keep our dog in our room at night.
“Nikki was great with our dog Otter! She was able to schedule a drop-in last minute and saved the day. She was punctual, communicative and took great care of our guy giving me peace of mind while I was not home.”
“I have booked with Si Yeon multiple times to watch my cat puddle and highly recommend her as a sitter! Always takes amazing care of my fur baby so I know he is in good hands when I’m away.”
“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.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life, in and outside of my home. I’m an experienced baby to senior pet sitter, dog walker, and even once - cared for a lizard! I currently reside with 2 rescue cats, a bazillion fish and a 95lb hound dog. I’ve a former cat shelter volunteer - cleaning, socializing, feeding, giving medication and assisting with adoptions. I am gone July 4th-11th, July 18th-24th. Otherwise, I am free any time/day of the week. I have a very flexible schedule and will structure my day around your fur babies. I have experience crating, feeding, and caring for animals. My time volunteering taught me a lot, in addition to neighbors pets and living with my own.
“Sydney was a great pet sitter for my grumpy cat and a huge peace of mind while I was out of town. She's very knowledge about administration medication and extremely responsive. Thank you, Sydney!”
“Super friendly and nonjudgemental about the fact that I haven’t been able to clean my litter often enough due to chronic pain. Went above and beyond by carrying more than just the litter trash out behind the back of the building to the dumpster.”
“Danielle did a great job taking care of our three kitties, all of whom have their own quirks. She sent lots of photos and gave us updates. Absolutely would use Danielle again in the future.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the fact that I will love and care for your dog as if it was my own. I’ve been babysitting my neighbors dogs for about 2 years now, so I’m experienced with different types of dogs! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. There’s a lot of times within the day where I will be able to stop by and check on your dog! I provide loving and reliable pet care in clients’ homes by following each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lafayette Hill
Lisbet watched my dog while I was away for the weekend, and she was AMAZING! From our first meetup, I could tell she was great because she was showing so much interest in getting to know my dog and asking all the right questions! She followed everything I told her, got there on time every day, and kept me updated throughout the day. She also took the cutest pictures of my dog and very clearly cared about him! Will definitely book 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.
Best dog caregiver I've ever had for my pup. My pup loves Emily so much!!! Not many people can make my dog tired, but oh man Emily can! It is nice to come home to a sleepy pup that usually is FULL of endless amounts of energy. Emily does a great job of loving my pup like I would, takes her on nice long walks, and obviously tires my doggo out with a decent amount of play time.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.

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.
