“I always trust Heather with my pets, including 2 cats with medical conditions — she is kind, attentive, and with her medical background she is great at medicating them correctly and safely. We will always use Heather for checking on our critters in our home!”
“She did a great job! Was flexible with timing and took great care of my kitten. They got along very well. She left good notes of how things were doing and took great pictures!”
“Evelyn is great about following instructions and checking in. My cat's water fountain broke on the last day and she was great at asking me what to do. She's the type of person I want watching my kitty girl.”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life I've had to attend dog behavioral training classes with multiple dogs over the years of owning them with family. As an adult I've never had the privilege of owning my own dog only cats. But I've always been the one to help family members when they go away walks & pet siting. I work in the elder care system but trying to find a balance of Harmony. With my active lifestyle and fond affection for The Great outdoors I miss the company of dogs I don't have the means or time to own my own I would like an opportunity to be able to explore new areas of my local neighborhood and getting exercise. I do care for a cat though, she is not my own. But she is welcomed in my apartment she owns this house. And I only just pay the rent.
About: What sets me apart is my calm and gentle demeanor, especially beneficial for anxious or shy pets. I create a peaceful and reassuring environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable. I'm skilled at reading their body language and adapting my approach to their individual needs. I'm also very patient and understanding, giving them the time they need to adjust. I'm experienced in creating a safe and comfortable space, and I am very good at slow introductions. Pet care is a top priority in my daily and weekly routine. I believe in providing consistent care, so I establish regular feeding and walk schedules. I'm also flexible and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior and ensure they have fresh water and playtime. I genuinely love spending time with animals and providing them with the best possible care. My approach to pet care is built on providing a safe, happy, and healthy environment for every animal. Here's what that looks like: * Routine and Consistency: I understand the importance of routine, so I strictly follow feeding schedules and exercise plans provided by owners. * Personalized Attention: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their individual needs. Some dogs love fetch, while others prefer gentle cuddles. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and preferences. For example, with shy cats, I use slow, gentle movements and let them approach me on their own terms.
“Ana was absolutely incredible. I’m so grateful for her. She took care of our elderly, diabetic cat Hannah (who also has CKD) while my partner and I were away. Ana expertly administered the plethora of medications (oral and injectable) and checked Hannah’s blood glucose via glucometer. She was also extremely patient when feeding her and cleaned up after Hannah had a couple accidents in her bed. I was especially appreciative of Ana’s flexibility and attention to detail when Hannah’s needs changed shortly before my trip after we had booked. Ana was very communicative as well and sent us plenty of updates and pics during her check-ins. I would recommend Ana to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter who can manage complex cats like my own. A million thank you’s to Ana and I will definitely book with her again!”
About: I have always been an animal lover. I grew up with dogs and cats in the house. I’ve also had ferrets and a snake as pets. There was a period of time where, I had 3 dogs of my own at the same time. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs. I am a nurse that works from home full-time therefore, your pet will have companionship throughout the day. I will enjoy having the company of your pet while I am working as well. I have administered medications to animals as directed by pet owners and veterinarians. I am able to administer oral and topical medications. I have confidently cared for recently spayed/neutered animals. I am experienced in puppy potty/feeding routines, crate training as well as positive reinforcement with or without treats. While caring for your family’s fur baby, I will treat them like family and as directed per your wishes. I will attempt to adhere to their routines to make the transition of not being at home easier for them. There will be plenty of built in time for attention, potty breaks and playtime. Your furbaby will be made to feel at home here. I will make every attempt to adhere to their home routine as much as possible to lessen the stress of this transition. I have a small unfenced grassy area that is available for quick potty breaks. For exercise and the longer potty breaks, we would go on walks through the neighborhood. I currently walk approximately 2 miles (weather permitting) for my own physical fitness therefore if your pup is willing and able, I would love the company. Typically, when I have watched friends and family's dogs we took walks 3 times a day. There will always be room for other accommodations if more or less walking is needed. I will ensure that your pet is safe and comfy while they sleep at night and rest during the day. There is a clean doggy bed and plenty of blankets to choose from if laying on the floor as I have hardwood floors. Please feel free to bring and favorite toys or advise of any activities that your pet enjoys as it is my goal to make them feel at home. My home gets the morning and afternoon sun though the large front window which provides a space for your pet to sunbathe if they so choose. There is also a sitting windowsill for them to enjoy some outside activity with the safety of being indoors. As previously stated, I have a small, unfenced yard available for quick potty breaks. For dogs, majority of their bathroom breaks will be walks depending on their energy and activity level. For visiting kitty's the litter box will likely be placed in my semi-finished basement unless other stipulations are discussed. Your kitty will be lovingly guided to the litter box to get acclimated to it's whereabout. I will provide the desired updates, pictures and communicate any issue timely so that you can feel at ease that your beloved pet is being well cared for. As a previous pet owner, I understand the worries of handing your beloved pet over to someone to care for them as you do. I assure you that your pet will be well loved and cared for here.
About: I’m a dog mom of one dog. I rescued her from Puerto Rico a few years ago. I’ve also assisted in transporting dogs from Puerto Rico to the states. We have an active life and enjoy hiking. I will provide fun and activities for your dog. I can come to your house or the dog comes to my house. If you feel more comfortable with just your dog at my house that can be arranged. I know how some dogs sometimes prefer to be the only pet at home. I currently work at home and available all day. I can provide the constant attention your dog will need. I have a fenced in yard. I will provide multiple walks throughout the day. I can dog sit at your house or my house. I have plenty of parks nearby for walks. There’s also hiking trails nearby. I offer dog baths for an additional fee if interested.
“She was perfect with my fur babies even with it being last minute. Extremely caring and patient with them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone”
About: They only pet care experience I have is taken care of my late dog Cody. Raising him for a puppy. Trying every day to give him a happy, loving life I have a lot of free time during the day and I will love to spend it being around loving dogs and just having fun I have a fenced backyard, that I can take the dog to play and run around. Making sure there’s plenty of water, treats and toys to play with. Just spending time with them, showing them love.
“Amazing!!! My Dalmatian, true to Velcro dog nature, has bad separation anxiety.. I left jiji in Helena’s care and she really treated her exceptionally. Enough photos showing her happy & healthy to make any nervous pup mom calm. There really isn’t anything Helena could’ve done more for Jiji & I. Will book again !!! ???”
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I offer help with daily walks, feeding, playtime, litter box and potty care, crate routines, and giving basic medications when needed. I also work on reinforcing training cues so pets can stay consistent with whatever structure they already have at home. I’m very attentive and patient, and I pay close attention to animal body language so I can understand how each pet is feeling and what they need. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m especially comfortable with shy, anxious, or routine focused pets who do best with calm energy and a steady, reassuring presence. I am available for pet care throughout the day depending on scheduling needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can be flexible and adjust my time to make sure pets are getting regular attention, exercise, and companionship. No matter the situation, I make sure pet care is something I can fully show up for and prioritize. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m flexible and able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as consistent weekly schedules or occasional last-minute needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a clean, calm environment. In clients’ homes, I respect routines and spaces while ensuring pets are supervised, comfortable, and stress-free. I stay alert on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and communicate promptly if anything seems off.
“We are so very grateful for Olivia’s care of our senior dog. She came to meet him and we had a good feeling about her right away. She has been punctual with her visits, quick to respond to any communication from us, and thorough with her reports of her time with our boy. We look forward to continued visits from Olivia, and our pup does too.”
About: I have been taken care of dogs for five years for family and friends. I have been told that my furry friends love having me as their sitter or and walker. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have lots of time to sit your furry pets. To also show all the love and care they need. I live in a house. I would walk your furry pets around the neighborhood. They would have full range of the house. I can not wait to board your furry pets.
“Olivia was very considerate and attentive to my pet’s needs! She communicated with me frequently with updates/pictures and that really put my mind at ease that my cat was in great hands. I’ve already rebooked with her and highly recommend her!”
“Helena did a great job taking care of our two cats for a week. She came at the agreed-upon time each day, gave them lots of love, pets, and playtime, and sent us pictures that helped us not miss them quite as much; although that’s hard, of course! We felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I know what it’s like to worry about your fur babies when you're away from home, which is why I strive to provide top-notch daytime care. Whether I'm popping in for a drop-in visit or taking them out for some fresh air, my services include: feeding and medication per the pet parent’s instructions, plenty of walks, play time, and lots of cuddles (if they’re okay with that!) with photo updates throughout my visit. As an animal shelter volunteer, I especially have experience with cats, including kittens as young as 2 weeks old. Since I have recently moved to Philadelphia my availability is now completely open, which works out perfectly for scheduling visits! Any scheduling discrepancies will be communicated ASAP. My approach to pet care is centered on safety and maintaining a stress-free routine. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a 'safety-first' environment by double checking locks and removing potential hazards.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Lansdowne is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lansdowne
Angelica is so terrific! We especially appreciate how she takes initiative to do things that we haven’t asked her to do, but that makes sense to do, like taking in the compost pails as we intended to ask her but forgot. When it comes to the pets, if she thinks of something we haven’t asked her to do, she runs it by us first! We feel very lucky to have her taken care of our pets.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rachel was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and caring with both our dog and cats. She followed our instructions perfectly, arrived exactly when requested, and did an excellent job taking care of all our pets. Rachel was dependable, punctual, respectful, and genuinely kind to our animals. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pets. We will absolutely use her again!
Our usual pet sitter fell through at the last minute before a trip so I needed to book someone on late notice. Evelyn was incredibly responsive and accommodating and even made time to do a quick meet and greet before we left for the trip. She was extremely kind and sent us some incredibly cute pics for cat updates! She was excellent and would absolutely work with her again. Thank you Evelyn for taking such great care of our cats!
Callie was so kind and so accommodating!! My husband and I booked her last minute to watch our pets while we were at our wedding, and she was so kind and flexible with our last minute request. She also took her time to make sure our dog, Maddie, was comfortable with her being in our home, which we really appreciated, because our dog can be a little nervous when meeting new people. She also was great with her updates of our pets and was super communicative!! We would definitely recommend Callie to anyone!! We will definitely be booking with her again!!
Heather was absolutely amazing! We felt completely at ease traveling knowing our cat was in such great hands. The visit update/report was detailed, thoughtful, and reassuring. On top of that, Heather even helped brining in our mails and packages. We could not have asked for better and will definitely rebook in the future!
Jacqueline went above and beyond for taking care my cats while I am gone. She did everything thing I asked for and beyond, even took out the pxxp bags or helped me look around for my cat's medication when i forgot where I kept. She truly care my pets as her own. I'll definitely book with her.
Tamika is a fantastic cat sitter! She does a great job with our cat and I always feel comfortable when I know Tamika is watching her. She also helped us out this time by doing extra things such as picking up packages that were delivered. She’s always communicative and we appreciate all she does to respect our home and take great care of our cat.
We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Breanna! She has known Harper since we moved to Media three years ago, and over that time, she has become such a constant, caring presence in our lives. She has followed us through one house move and even two pregnancies, always showing Harper the same incredible level of love and attention. Breanna goes so far above and beyond what you could ever expect from a dog walker. Her updates and notes show just how closely she pays attention to Harper and how genuinely invested she is in her well-being. We always feel completely confident knowing Harper is in her care. And somehow, she manages to make our lives a little easier, too. She’ll bring in our mail and packages, and on more than one occasion, she’s even put away a loaf of bread I accidentally left sitting on the counter after a hectic morning with my two boys. Breanna is reliable, kind, attentive, trustworthy, and truly treats Harper like her own. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog with their whole heart. Harper absolutely adores her, and so do we!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lansdowne is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $44 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 November 2026, there are 9,470 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lansdowne. 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lansdowne. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
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.
