“Dominique was FANTASTIC with Bowie! She was able to accommodate our last minute request, she set up a meet and greet, and sent lots of photos and updates. We would absolutely book her again!”
About: I have great experience in dog handling, training, walking, and sitting both in groups and individually. I also hold a certification in Canine & Feline CPR/First Aid from Pet Emergency Education. I am highly vigilant of behavioral cues and feel my best when I am around animals. I regularly go for long distance walks and do barbell strength training to ensure I am strong enough to keep your pup safe. I also have experience with kitten care as I raised 2 litters! I am a stay-at-home wife so I am available anytime Monday through Saturday for your pet's needs! I know the Norristown area quite well as to ensure shady, safe walking areas for your pet. I am Canine & Feline CPR/First Aid Certified by Pet Emergency Education. If pet-sitting or overnight stays are needed, I always listen attentively for owner preferences. Any specifications regarding food, medication, bathroom breaks can be ensured. I also have experience providing ear drops and pills to dogs, and bottle feeding for kittens.
About: I have had seven dogs throughout my life and currently have a friendly 7-year-old Beagle. I have also pet-sat dogs for family and friends over the years. Caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playing, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions carefully. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with animals! I currently don’t work and I am home all day so I can be with your dog most of the day and let them out frequently. I have a big fenced yard and like to walk dogs. I care for pets with the same patience, attention, and responsibility that I would want for my own. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also follow each pet’s individual routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and other needs. In a client’s home, I am respectful of their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being and communicate with the owner regularly so they know how their pet is doing. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while in my care.
“Lisa is wonderful. She did drop in visits when I was away for a few days and my dog was well cared for. She walked him when needed and spent time with him when he chewed on his bones. She’s flexible and I will definitely use her again.”
“Excellent service from Jacob! He was friendly, professional, and super diligent in taking care of our two cats. Jacob provided detailed updates, including pictures, for every visits, and made us feel relaxed knowing that our two cats are in great care. Every instructions we provided was followed, and Jacob always went above and beyond. We would definitely contact Jacob for future visits, and highly recommend Jacob's service.”
“Alyssa was great! This was our first time using this service. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. Alyssa's communication was great and she was friendly. I would definitely book her again and will recommend to friends and family.”
“Lana did an amazing job with my boys. Very caring and attentive. She followed all instructions and I was at ease. Many photos were sent and I was informed of their daily activities.”
“Maxi is incredibly kind, responsive and loving. It feels like Nola has become an extension of their family. She even whimpers with excitement when we pull up for her to stay with Mazi! Recommended whole-heartedly from a dog obsessed owner.”
“Amanda far exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond in all respects. She clearly loves animals and bonded with our Lippy and Emmy, while attending to their every need, including Lippy’s meds. Knowing things were being handled so well allowed us to fully enjoy our trip with no worries at all. She is the best!”
About: I have absolutely loved all animals all my life! I currently have a one year old lab mix. He is a fun and energetic pup who loves all other dogs he meets. He is a great play mate. I currently live in a pet friendly apartment with a small dog park and neighborhoods for walks. I currently work from home so I am able to hangout with your pup all day! I am a nurse working remotely, so I am home every day and can hangout with your pup! My dog is very energetic and loves walks and playtime, so your pup will get plenty of exercise if that’s what they want! We also allow pets on furniture and have big dog beds for the pups who prefer to relax 😊 I live in a two bedroom apartment that has easy access to grass, a dog park, and neighborhoods to go on walks. Since I work from home I can take dogs out as much as needed.
About: Since I was young, I’ve loved animals, specifically dogs! I have always had my own dog and have watched many different dogs, large, energetic, and even puppies! I currently work from home and have my own dog, so taking care of another pet whether it be drop ins or walks, is completely doable. My schedule is very flexible and I can work from anywhere. I have a small fenced in yard and a friendly Labrador! He is super energetic so I am constantly walking him and ensuring he gets his energy out.
“Mariah provided friendly, dependable, and courteous drop in care for our senior kitty. He needed medication at the last minute. (When we first booked Mariah , kitty only needed basic drop-in care. But just before we left an issue arose requiring medication.) Mariah handled everything beautifully and with care. Excellent”
“Si yeon was amazing. We have not been away more than 2 nights since pre-pandemic because our cats don’t do well without us, but we came home to 3 happy, well loved fur babies! We had such a great time knowing they were well loved and cared for. Needless to say, we’ll be taking more trips and booking with Si yeon again. We can’t thank her enough.”
“Rachael was exceptional in taking care of my pup Gouda. I knew upon our meet and greet that my boy would be in food hands but each visit she continued to go above and beyond. (Ie. toweling him off after a rainy walk). I was able to enjoy family time not worrying my dog would be lonely. She gave him tons of love and care. Will definitely use again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I have cared for my own pets (two cats and a dog) for over 8 years and have hands-on experience working in animal shelters. I understand how to build trust and friendships with animals, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, and from Tuesday to Thursday I’m available after 5:00 PM to take care of your fur babies. I’m also available on weekends upon request. :) For client homes, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep pets in their familiar routine—whether that’s feeding, walking, play, or medication. I focus on making sure each pet feels loved, safe, and well looked after.
“Alec was top notch! Our big boy St. Bernard can be a bit grumpy towards strangers but Alec took the time to stop over before the booking service to meet him and bond. He was incredibly kind to our babies- even took time to love on our kitties and send pictures of them though they didn’t need anything. He was reliable and quick with any communication. Can’t say enough about Alec. We will hands down book with him again!”
About: My love for dogs has been with me since I was a kid, but it truly took off when I got into hiking and the outdoors! There’s something magical about seeing a dog’s pure excitement on the trail—the way their tail wags nonstop, the burst of energy as they explore, and that unshakable bond they share with their humans. Watching my friends' dogs thrive on these adventures made me realize just how much I love being around dogs, and soon enough, I found myself pet sitting for coworkers while they traveled. That’s when everything clicked—I wasn’t just helping out, I was doing something that brought me real joy! Over the past two years, I’ve gained a deep understanding of dog behavior, problem-solving, and structured care. I know how important trust and communication are when it comes to caring for someone’s pet, and I always keep owners in the loop with updates and insights into their dog’s well-being. I’ve also developed a strong ability to read body language, making sure every dog I watch feels safe, comfortable, and excited for their time with me! Whether it’s juggling multiple dogs with different needs, sticking to medication and feeding schedules, or adapting to new situations with patience and confidence, I’m always ready to step up and provide the best possible care. Now that I’m back home in New Jersey, I’m beyond excited to continue this journey! I’m always looking to grow, learn, and bring even more love and energy to the dogs I care for. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s something I truly love doing! I can’t wait to meet your pup and make sure they’re happy, safe, and having the best time ever! I currently have full availability from Thursday to Sunday, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time to your pet. On Monday through Wednesday, I work a flexible schedule that still allows for drop-in services, walks, feeding, and other care needs. I am happy to work with your specific situation and can accommodate hybrid or work-from-home scenarios to ensure your dog receives the attention they deserve. Creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets is my top priority! I will adhere to your expectations and routines; Prepare meals and refresh water regularly; Provide daily walks, playtime, and exercises tailored to your dog's needs; maintain hygiene and grooming; Send updates and communication to pet owner; Secure outdoor areas and ensure leash handling during walks.

I highly recommend Jacob as your cat sitter! He did an excellent job taking care of my two cats and was reliable, caring and attentive. I felt completely comfortable knowing my cats were in such good hands while I was away. I am definitely going to use Jacob again, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
Lana was amazing and attentive and took great care of our beloved kitty! She was always timely (important because he is food obsessed and will certainly perish if not fed on time!!!). She provided excellent communication and lots of feedback through pictures and texts. It is incredibly difficult for me to be away from my kitty and she truly provided me the peace and happiness that I needed to be able to enjoy my vacation. She listened to what was important to me to take the best care of my baby during the meet and greet and followed up on everything that I asked. I highly recommend Lana.
Amanda was absolutely incredible! I had never had someone whom I didn’t know come to take care of Kyle, but she put all my concerns at ease and I felt very comfortable knowing she was checking in on him. She left me a thorough note recap and 3 adorable photos from her visit, in which Kyle seemed very happy and content! I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future :)
Grace was absolutely wonderful with our two cats while we were away! Her communication was thorough and prompt, and she went above and beyond to help with other things that came up around the house. What really stood out was how much quality time she spent with our cats and how genuinely she got to know their individual personalities. Her thoughtful updates and messages gave us so much peace of mind during a long vacation. We came home to two happy cats and a well-cared-for home. We would absolutely recommend Grace and will definitely book her again!
Rachel took excellent care of our two kitties while we went on a weeklong trip to California - she was fantastic! The communication was instant and she shared photo updates daily. She even went above and beyond pet sitting to notify us when the power in our downstairs room went out, watered our plants etc. This was our first time being away after we moved to a new house, so we were worried about how they would handle it. But when we got back, the boys seemed happy and weren’t anxious at all. Our shy kitty was even beginning to warm up to her, which speaks volumes - it usually takes him months to be comfortable around new people. He also gets angsty when we are gone for more than a couple days and spite pees after we return, however this time we had no accidents! Apart from that, she’s truly wonderful and a kind person. We’ll 100% be rebooking with her for future trips!
Si yeon was amazing. We have not been away more than 2 nights since pre-pandemic because our cats don’t do well without us, but we came home to 3 happy, well loved fur babies! We had such a great time knowing they were well loved and cared for. Needless to say, we’ll be taking more trips and booking with Si yeon again. We can’t thank her enough.
Julie did a wonderful job taking care of my cats while I was gone, providing plenty of pictures for me and engagement for them. She was also willing to work with me to get through my building's byzantine security system, which I appreciated. She made my first extended trip away from my cats a stress free experience.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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 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.
