“Zoe went above and beyond caring for both our 90-pound adult dog and our high-energy puppy! I’ve always been the type of person who is extremely nervous about leaving my dogs in someone else’s care, to the point that I’ve never hired a dog walker or pet sitter before. However, after getting our puppy and having a prior commitment that meant we’d be away from home for an extended period, we decided to take the leap and reach out to Zoe. We couldn’t be happier that we did! Zoe didn’t just meet our expectations; she completely exceeded them. She even arrived a little early to make sure she had all the information she needed for a successful visit. Throughout the entire time, she kept us updated and maintained great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned home, both dogs were happy, well cared for, and properly exercised. As someone who is very particular about who I trust with my dogs, I cannot recommend Zoe enough! I would absolutely rebook with her in a heartbeat, and we’ve already started discussing our future dog-walking needs with her. Thank you so much, Zoe! We’re so grateful to have found you! ❤️”

About: I am very reliable, punctual, trustworthy, and flexible! I love dogs, but never had to chance to have one since I grew up with a mom being terrified of dogs. However, that didn't stop me from spending time with dogs and animals outside of my home. I have had some experience volunteering at the local animal shelter in college and have done multiple dog sittings for my friends and neighbors. I already enjoy walking around the city and would love to have your pupper around for additional company! I would love to have the opportunity to care for and provide some love to your pup and keep them happy! I am also currently a PAWS Volunteer in Philly for both cats and dogs. I also can petsit cats too! I will follow all instructions and will adhere to any specific requests you may have for your pet! If I am scheduled off that day, I have the entire day to take care of your pet. Whether it's stopping by the place to change your cat's litter, or walking your dog, I am pretty flexible on the days that I am available. Safety is my number one priority for your pet. I will make sure to adhere to any specific instructions you may have, whether it's keeping your dog away from other dogs, or ensuring your home is appropriately locked up after my visit.

“⸻ Let me just say—after my first two dog sitters, I almost gave up on this app 🙂. But I’m so glad I found Victor. He is incredibly kind and truly cares. My dog absolutely loves him—he wags his tail and gets just as excited to see Victor as he does to see me, which says everything. Victor is also very reliable. He doesn’t just stick to the exact booked time or show up late like others. He often arrives a few minutes early and sometimes stays a little longer, which I really appreciate. It shows how genuine and dedicated he is. I also have a camera at home, since my dog can’t tell me about his day—and it’s clear that Victor treats him with care and attention. That gives me a lot of peace of mind. He will definitely be my to-go dog sitter moving forward!”

“Alix is GREAT! it was my first time leaving somebody else to administer insulin to my cat & i was so nervous but she sent me multiple updates & photos & ensured that all went smoothly. would definitely book her again!”

“Sabina looked in after my baby Cassius and took great care of him! It was a last minute booking and she was more than accommodating with such short notice. She was attentive to his needs and did everything we asked of her! We’ll definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve had the joy of being around dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up with both small and large breeds since I was a little girl. Caring for them is a lifelong passion for me. I love not only spending time with dogs but also training them, learning about their unique personalities, and making sure they feel happy, healthy, and understood. My goal as a sitter is to give each dog the same level of love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is thriving while you’re away. As a freelance artist, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my day around the needs of the pets I care for. My work in the arts gives me the freedom to be present for regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Because I can easily adjust my routine, I’m able to give each pet consistent attention and love. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my own home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are in a secure environment that they are free from hazards, with access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of safe play space. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding routines to exercise schedules, and keep a watchful eye on the pet’s behavior and well-being. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and ensure it’s kept tidy and secure. My goal is to provide both the pet and their owner with peace of mind, knowing they’re in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes through my own pets and by helping friends, family, and neighbors. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send photo updates after every visit because I know how reassuring it is for pet parents to see their furry family member happy and well cared for. From energetic puppies to shy or senior dogs, I’m patient, attentive, and committed to following each owner’s instructions to ensure their pet receives the highest quality care. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule, allowing me to dedicate quality time and attention to every visit. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each pet owner’s needs whenever possible. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or extra playtime, I’m committed to being dependable, punctual, and making sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I pay close attention during walks, use secure leashes and harnesses, and always keep a clean, calm environment. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I strive to provide dependable care, clear communication, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 8 years old. I grew up in a house full of large dogs and cats and now have my own dog and two cats. I have experience with dogs and cats ranging from just a few weeks old well into their senior years. I also have lots of experience with pocket pets! I am currently a college student with a schedule that leaves me with a lot of free time. Meaning I have lots of time to hang out with your pet(s)! I am happy to do whatever your pet needs to be as happy and comfortable as possible! Whether your pet is quirky or straight forward I’ve got them covered.
“Sally has been amazing with Nenya! Nenya is struggling with strangers coming into the house and Sally helps immensely to help improve this by doing drop in visits. She is always very sweet with my anxious pup and makes her feel so much more comfortable.”

“This is now the second time we hired Meredith to come watch our son and she once again was amazing! Great communication about arrivals and departures, very detailed accounts of the visits she had, and wonderful pictures of our boy! Our cat has grown to love Meredith so much that I’m sure he’ll be disappointed to see us! If you get the chance to work with Meredith, don’t pass it up! A++++++++!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 11. I helped my parents raise 2 puppies and now I've raised my own! I know basic training skills to the extent of what the internet has taught me, but when it comes to the care of dogs, I have a full lifetime's experience. I work full time, however I love animals and am more than happy to drop in, or even walk after. I am also capable of being home full time if there is a boarding request If you ask me to take your baby for a few days in my home, with your permission I’d be more then happy to take them on a nice long walk or hike too! I have a dog of my own, an Aussiedoodle who loves everyone and everything. So just keep that in mind when booking with me!
“When my roommate unexpectedly moved days before a monthlong trip, I engaged Fatima to watch my stranger-wary kitty. She did a great job, eventually winning over my cat. When I had a work trip soon after this, I immediately hired Fatima again. Highly recommend!”

“Aashree was great! She responded quickly to all of my messages, came to my home promptly for key pick-up and instructions, as well as on her visits. She sent great pictures of my critters - it was wonderful to see them were being well taken care of. Thank you!”


About: Animals have been a big part of my life since I was a child. I have always loved dogs and cats and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I studied Veterinary Assistant in my home country and worked for one year at a veterinary clinic. This experience taught me how to care for animals, pay attention to their behavior, and understand that every pet has different needs and personalities. I currently have a 2-year-old rabbit and a 3-year-old turtle, so caring for animals is an important part of my everyday life. I have a pet in Colombia whom I miss very much, and spending time with animals here brings me a lot of happiness. This is one of the reasons I decided to join Rover. I would love to spend more time with animals while giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. I am patient, responsible, attentive, and always focused on making sure your pet feels safe and happy while you are away. 🐶🐱🐰❤️ I currently work from 7 AM to 4 PM, so I am available for pet care before or after work depending on the service and location. On Wednesdays and Fridays, I have much more flexibility and can spend the whole day with your pet. I am happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship. 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in their home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions about feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure. I also keep their space clean and organized. My goal is to give every pet plenty of attention, companionship, and care while their family is away. I want them to feel happy, relaxed, and comfortable in their own home. 🐾❤️
About: I've had pets all my life, but within the last few years I've helped out with the pets of friends, family members, and roommates when they've traveled. This has included walking dogs of all sizes, taking them to the dog park for further activity, and the occasional house-sitting for a week or two at a time. I’m pretty adaptable and I’d be more than happy to work alongside you to make sure the needs of your pet are taken care of. while they’re in my care! I have relative flexibility and can be available for last minute drop ins if needed. I recently just finished getting my graduate degree while I apply for a full-time job. I’m free during the week during the days and have open availability on the weekends. If taking care of your dog, on walks I plan to leash them at all times as well as keeping a safe distance from any other animals we may come by.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Leonia
Vanessa has watched Frankie, our 3-month old mini-Aussie with boatloads of energy, twice now, and both times have been absolutely amazing. Frankie loves getting to play and run around with Vanessa, and has even learned new tricks! We really appreciate Vanessa's time and patience and would recommend her to anyone in need of a caring petsitter!

Leta has been watching my dog since she was a puppy, and I can’t recommend her enough! She has always been amazing with her, from handling all of her puppy energy to caring for her as she’s gotten older. Leta is incredibly reliable and trustworthy, whether she’s taking her for walks while I’m at work or staying with her for an extended period. Most recently, she watched my dog while I was out of the country for two weeks, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was with someone I trust. She sent me such great updates through out the trip. My dog loves her, and I always know she’s in great hands with Leta!

Helen was an amazing dog sitter! She watched our Siberian Husky, Esko, for five days and took such great care of her. She came beforehand to meet Esko, communicated with us throughout our trip, and sent pictures every day. We felt completely comfortable knowing Esko was in great hands. We will definitely use Helen again and highly recommend her!

Sam is the best! My two boys are getting to be in their senior years and are very different. Jimmy is on the bigger side around 40 pounds and rambunctious and Dwight is on the smaller side around 25 pounds and pretty lazy. Sam interacted and loved both boys and was so lovely and attentive on his visits to feed them while we were away on vacation. We are so glad to have found Sam 😌

Luz is an amazing pet sitter. She is very sweet with our French Bulldog and British Short Hair. She is extremely professional, courteous, and clean! She communicates professionally as well. We have booked with Luz multiple times and will definitely book with her again in the future. I can’t recommend her enough.

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 Leonia 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 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 .
