About: Iâm a lifelong animal lover and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages and needs. I have a 12-year-old diabetic chocolate Lab who is not just our family dog, but my best friend, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and giving pets extra care and attention. Caring for a senior dog with medical needs has taught me responsibility and how important routines are. Iâve also dog sat for family and friends many times. I treat every pet like theyâre my own, and I want owners to feel comfortable knowing their pets are getting plenty of care, attention, and love while theyâre away. I am currently unemployed, so I have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. Whether itâs walks, feeding schedules, playtime, bathroom breaks, or simply keeping them company, I can easily adjust my day around their needs. In my home or your home, I understand that every pet is different. So I am happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, or special care needs. My main focus is making sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible!
âRyanne is always so communicative, flexible with our schedule & buddyâs need + she leaves the best rover card comments/pictures after each visit âşď¸ We appreciate youâ


About: Iâve had dogs and cats around my whole life and knew from a very young age that i was meant to be apart of changing an animals life in a positive and proactive way. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I am also a veterinary technician! so pet care is apart of my everyday routine. I have 2 very friendly dogs and 2 very friendly cats that get along with anyone and anything. I can walk them around my neighborhood!
About: Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile and consider me as a care taker for your animal while you are away! I have grown up with dogs (and the occasional bird & fishies). For the past 12 years, I've lived with and visited my best bud Zeke at my parent's house. I would love to have a dog of my own in the future, however for now I am hoping and so happy to take care of other's loved ones during the week and on weekends! I'm an active individual and enjoy taking dogs on walks, for car rides and the occasional ice cream or pup cup. I will give your animal all the love that they've come to expect because they certainly deserve it! Please reach out with any questions, and thanks again for thinking of me! :) I currently work full time (9-5) Monday-Friday, however I usually work from home Friday's and am available on weekends for full time pet care. During the week, I am able to visit (feed, walk, take out for bathroom needs) early in the morning (between 5:30 am to 7 am and in the evening (between 6-9 pm) In my current apartment, pets are welcome visitors. However, I am also happy to visit your home multiple times a day and stay with your pet when needed, especially if you are close! I work only 20 minutes away so I would have ample time in the morning and especially in the evening to stop by to feed, toilet, walk and play with your pet! This is especially great if your pet doesnât do well in a new environment; I am happy to provide them with everything theyâd need in a place where they feel the most comfortable!
âAmanda was great and I will definitely rebook! She answered my request to book almost immediately and very last minute! I was very impressed by the way she cared for my dogs while on a walk. She noticed my older dog was having some trouble in the heat so she took him home and then went back out with my younger, hyper dog! Highly recommend!â

âVery pleased with excellent time management and such a pleasant demeanor exhibited by Morgan especially since she has to take care of a senior dog. Much appreciated and wish you the best.â


About: I have over 3 years experience pet sitting animals, in particular, dogs and cats. I also have experience house sitting for longer periods of time. I love animals and treat the pets as if they were my own. I like to plan some fun and down time with each pet based on their preferences. I provide a questionnaire to pet owners. This is mainly to gather pertinent information about the pet and specific care needs. This information also helps to create a schedule and plan for the pet sitting experience. I also provide regular pictures/updates for owners based on their preference. I can provide an emailed report at the end of the sitting experience, at the pet owner's request. I look forward to caring for your pet.
âHollie was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and Iâm very happy with the care she provided for our cat, Figaro. 5 stars, 100% recommended and will use again!â

âAllie was great!! I was on vacation in Colorado and needed and urgent replacement for my dog sitter. Allie responded quickly to my request and jumped in to help. I wasnât able to do a meet and greet and Allie was ok with that. She figured things out and did a great job caring for my pups. She sent me detailed updates with lots of pictures. I will definitely work with her in the future!â
âJacob was extremely detailed and asked questions I hadnât thought of in order to make sure my girl had the most positive experience! I am extremely pleased with Jacobâs work.â


âHannah was amazing with Westly! Communication was 10/10 and she went above and beyond to make sure he was warm through intense weather (heâs a Georgia dog, and it snowed). Book her :)â

âWonderful!!! I was so happy to find Kathleen on short notice to help me with my beautiful newfoundland Pearl. Kathleen was so nice and took great care of her for drop in visits to go to the bathroom and feed her while I was out of town. So thankful to find her and we look forward to using Kathleen again!â

âJulianna is great with Goose! She really goes the extra mile to spend quality time with him during check-ins and work on his training. We are lucky to have her just down the street!â

âTalia was amazing! I booked her last minute and she made everything work very smoothly. You can tell she genuinely cares, everything felt easy and stress-free from the start. My cats got along great with her! Iâd absolutely recommend booking her!â

âThey were wonderful with our dog, who is large and high energy. We received a lot of pictures and communications. Walks can be difficult but they managed him well. Would recommend this duo to anyone! Thank you again for caring for Otis!â


About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I regularly dog/ cat sit for my neighbors since I was 10. Sometimes I like animals more than people. Iâm currently a part time student at Towson with a part time job, Monday through Thursday. I have plenty of breaks throughout the day to spend with your pet! Your pet is welcome anywhere in my apartment! Bring whatever toys/treat you want. Whatever makes them comfortable! I will love them like my own!!
âMeghan provided excellent care to my two kitties. She was very conscious about keeping the food dishes clean and keeping the litter box clean. She spent time with them , giiving some love and comfort. I have reserved Meghan for multiple trips during the next year.â

About: Hi! My name is Christina, and I live in Norristown, PA. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, fish, and hamsters, which helped foster my lifelong love of animals. For the past 10 + years, Iâve provided pet care for friends and family, and Iâm excited to now offer my services to other pet owners in the Norristown community. I have experience caring for a wide range of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and fish. I also share my home with Bentley, my Australian Cattle Dog/Shar Pei rescue, who keeps me active and reminds me every day how important patience, consistency, and love are when caring for animals. In addition, I volunteer with the Pennsylvania SPCA, where I enjoy helping animals and supporting their journey to finding loving homes. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I strive to provide the same level of care, attention, and affection that I would want for my own pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!
About: Hi, I'm Jen! I've been caring for all different types of animals all my life and I would love the opportunity to spend some time with your pet! I currently own a horse and a cat. I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule that allows walks or playtime throughout the day. I've been caring for and walking dogs professionally for 7 years. I have experience with all different sizes, ages and temperaments. I have a wide range of knowledge on different types of harnesses and how to handle any stressful situations that may arise during our time together. In case of emergency, I have a car and will always be able to get your pet to their vet or nearby animal hospital. I am also able to provide any type of medication your pet may need. I love to provide photo updates to the owner during my walks/visits. Because of the many years of experience I've had with horses, I believe I am well equipped to care for a variety of animals. I hope you'll trust me to care for your pet like my own. I work from home and am able to provide walks/playtime throughout the day. I have a car so I can travel to you or bring your dog to a park or walk on a path. Whatever you are comfortable with. I live in a nice community where I am able to take dogs on long safe walks. If you need in home care, I am open to drop ins or hosting at my apartment. My cat is very respectful and is used to other animals.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Norristown
Katie was phenomenal as she cared for my two dogs during an overnight weekend visit. She sent adorable photos and regular updates daily, which put my mind at ease while I was away. She followed all feeding routines, took the dogs on walks, and played with them. She communicated so well, was very clean, and I was confident that my babies were well taken care of! I am very grateful to have found such a reliable, caring sitter! So thankful for her help.
Julie took wonderful care of my two dogs while I was away. She was caring, attentive, and treated them as if they were her own. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She kept me updated, made sure all of their needs were met, and gave them plenty of love and attention. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter.

Lynda did a phenomenal job taking care of my dog while I was away. She did drop-in visits and walks, which allowed my dog to stay comfortable at home instead of being in a boarding facility or someone elseâs house. It was the perfect match for us. Lynda was incredibly communicative, friendly, and knowledgeable about dogs. I could tell she truly respects and enjoys what she does. She was always punctual and professional, and I really appreciated the thoughtful notes and photos she shared after each visit. I will definitely be using her services again without a doubt.

Alyssa is always punctual and went above and beyond for us while caring for our two dogs. Our one dog is a handful and she was able to put her at ease as well as handling a couple house items that came up. Wehave had her before and would recommend to anyone.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your petâs routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your petâs mood and energy levels.
Whether youâre at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Norristown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitterâs 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 Norristown 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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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 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 doesnât 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 Norristown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days youâd like them to care for your pet.

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.
