“Madison was very attentive during the meet and greet and took great care of Oliver and Remi while I was gone and provided great pictures and updates! She filled the cat feeders, water bowls, and even emptied and fixed the litter robot when required. Highly recommend!”
About: I've dog sat since I was about 10 years old. While I don't have a dog of my own, dog sitting is a fun way for me to get my dog fix. I love getting to spend time caring for and playing with others' pups. I am a school psychologist and have time off in the summer; I'll be available to drop in and provide play time for your dog. I'm a school psychologist and have time off in the summer. I'll be available to watch your pet whether you're out for a day trip or on vacation. I will follow any guidelines provided by pet parents regarding feeding, treats, play time, walks, etc. I am unable to provide care in my home or house sit at this time.
About: I have been a dog owner my entire life and have always loved being around animals. I currently have two dogs who live with my parents, and while I don’t have any pets in my current apartment, I regularly care for them whenever my parents are traveling. I am also the go-to person for my friends and family when they need someone they trust to watch their dogs while they are away. I have experience caring for dogs ranging from 6 months old to 14 years old and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I am a very active person, so I love taking dogs on walks, playing outside, and visiting the dog park to help them stay happy and engaged. Since my own dogs don’t live with me right now, I would love the opportunity to give another pup plenty of love, attention, and snuggles while their owners are away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I have just finished my first year of dental school, and I have off classes until September, so I’m free all summer and have plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care. Outside of school, I am a very active person who enjoys going to the gym, spending time outdoors, and staying busy. Caring for pets fits perfectly into my routine because I love being active and would enjoy having a furry companion to take on walks, explore outside with, and give lots of attention and affection throughout the day. I am happy to work with different schedules and routines to make sure each pet receives the care and consistency they need while their owners are away. The safety and comfort of every dog I care for is my top priority. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would expect for my own home. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also keeping them safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I am very active, so I love taking dogs on walks and providing opportunities for them to get outside and stay engaged. I have spent my entire life around dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and trust. My goal is to make sure every dog feels happy, safe, and cared for while their owners are away.
“Sydney did a lovely job getting to know my kitties before we left for the week and my cats warmed up to her very quickly. She sent many pictures and great updates while we were away. Which is just a nice thing to see when you are away, because you know that they are happy as well! I will absolutely be booking her again for our future travels.”
“This was my first time ever using a service to care for my cat and the first time leaving my cat for a week. Which was a big deal for a new pet parent! Nikki was amazing. She was thorough in gathering care instructions for Lil Sweetie, prompt with her check-ins, and sent detailed visit cards with cute pics of my kitty so I could keep in touch while I was away and missing her. I felt completely at ease knowing Sweetie was in the care of Nikki. I will definitely be booking Nikki again in the future and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Nikki!”
“si yeon was responsive and on time! she played with my furbaby and made sure she got attention and cuddled with her 🐾🐶 it was kind of last second to find an at-home sitter but thankfully si yeon was available and nearby 🥹 thank you again!!”
“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: What sets me apart is that I’ve been around dogs my whole life and trained my own dog to be very gentle and well-behaved when I was only 9 years old. I’m also very good at reading dogs’ body language, which helps me understand when they’re nervous, playful, excited, or need space so I can make them feel comfortable and safe. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, especially during the summer since I have a very flexible schedule and a lot of free time. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets attention and care whenever they need it. I’ve had a dog my whole life, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets and being around different dog personalities. In my client’s home, I would make sure their dog is fed on schedule, has fresh water, gets taken outside or on walks, has playtime and attention, and feels safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I would also carefully follow any instructions the owner provides, including routines, medications, or special care needs.
“Alexa provided excellent care for Luna and we really appreciate her help! She was flexible as we needed and provided photos and updates as necessary. She is reliable and a good communicator. We would absolutely look to have Alexa care for Luna again.”
“Danielle is a wonderful cat sitter! She is communicative and responsible. Danielle handled a kitten emergency with calmness and responsibility and made sure everyone was safe. I feel good leaving my cats with her.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes since I can remember. Dog poop, hairballs, slobber…not grossed out, will clean it all. We recently lost our 17-year-old chihuahua, so I have experience caring for a senior pet as well. I’m a freelance creative, working from home with a very flexible schedule. I can easily shift my day around to meet your pet care needs! I am a sucker for instructions and will follow them to a T. Your pet(s) will get my undivided attention, love, and care. And, with your permission, I love to take photos of your pets and share them with you to add a little bright spot to your day.
“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.”

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.

“Lynda and her daughter Abigail were great! She came over a few weeks before for a meet and greet which was awesome. She followed all of my directions and my dogs had a blast. Looking forward to using them in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a teacher on summer break and a lifelong dog lover. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and started dog sitting when I was 12, so caring for pups has always been second nature to me. I currently have a reactive pit bull, which has taught me a lot about patience, structure, reading body language, and building trust with dogs who need a little extra understanding. She’s also brought me a ton of joy and deepened my love for all types of dogs, especially those with big personalities. This summer, I’m looking forward to spending my time outside, staying active, and making some new furry friends along the way. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, and I always aim to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, or just a calm and reliable presence, I’d love to help! My schedule is fairly flexible, especially during the summer, as I work part-time. I have a lot of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and playtime, and I do my best to accommodate different needs. Occasionally I may be traveling, but I’m always open to messages, feel free to reach out and see what I can make work. I do not offer overnight stays, as I have a dog of my own at home, but I’m happy to provide consistent, reliable daytime care. I always follow the owner’s directions closely to ensure each pet is cared for in a way that matches their normal routine and needs. I prioritize safety above all else and take time to understand each pet’s behavior, preferences, and any special instructions. I also like to do a meet and greet beforehand so everyone feels comfortable and we can make sure it’s a good fit. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and positive environment for every pet in my care.

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.

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.
