About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats over the past 6-8 years. Most have been friend’s and family’s and now I would like to extend my support to others who may need help. I would love walking your dog, letting them out for a quick run around the yard or a potty break. Feeding or checking in on your dogs and cats while you’re away or at work is also something I would love to help with. Let me know how I can help you take care of your fur baby when you can’t. I’m a teacher and have summers off to devote time during the week caring for your furry babies. I can come in the mornings and afternoons to help with walking, feeding, and letting out for exercise and potty breaks. I am a passionate animal lover who enjoys caring for both cats and dogs. I provide reliable and attentive pet care services, including feeding, walking, playtime, and general companionship. I understand that pets are family members, and I am committed to ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, regular feeding, or extra attention and affection, I offer dependable care tailored to their individual needs.
About: I've worked for a small pet sitting business (dog walking and cat sitting) for 9 years! I've taken care of puppies since they were little until they're huge! I can handle (easygoing) big dogs (Newfies) and am a total cat lover, too! I'm especially a sucker for senior pets. I'm responsible and reliable and always get to my appointments on time. I've done everything from walked, fed, given fresh water, cleaned litter boxes, bathed, and administered topical meds. I’m starting my own pet sitting business and am looking for both regular dailies clients as well as pet sitting/vacation clients! This is what I wish my full time job to be. I follow client instructions and make sure everything is thoroughly clear and understood prior to visit with your pet! Just give me your preferences beforehand. I am a very thorough communicator and will provide thorough updates! The only animals I am uncomfortable with visiting are ones with aggressive streaks- I've been bitten before and it's never fun!
“Justin is awesome. The cats love him, he takes extra care to make sure they eat and that all their meds and supplements are taken as needed, and he gives very informative, detailed updates after each visit. He gives me excellent peace of mind when I travel. Thanks Justin!”

When it comes to dog walking, I believe in letting dogs sniff around and take their time. I will make sure to to cater to your instructions.
About: I grew up with every kind of pet you can imagine and took care of senior dogs to little kittens! I love them all so much! I am a SAHM with one kid in school so I have extra time on my hands. I love walking (walking around 5 miles a day). I just need to be able to do drop off at 8am, pick up at 3pm and nap time for my little one at noon! I have a fenced in yard and no pets of my own. I have a fenced in pool and pond. I would always be outside with them.
“It was a pleasure having Christina watch our Yorkie Evie. We appreciated her thorough communication and professionalism. We felt very comfortable having her dog-sit Evie while she is having a leg issue and required extra care. Evie looks forward to hanging with Christina again soon”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oaklyn
We hired Brynn to come into our home to feed and walk our older dog when we went away overnight. She did an excellent job and sent us texts and photos each time. Our pup was in good spirits when we returned. I would definitely have her come again and recommend her highly.
Carly was fantastic and was super communicative from the start as it was our first time using Rover. She provided great updates and always responded quickly to any questions we had. It’s always tough having someone new come in and take care of your dog, but Carly was amazing and dasher loved her right away. We can’t wait to use Carly again in the future.
Kelsey put my mind at easy while out of town for a week. I booked Kelsey for daily drop-in visits for my cat and senior dog and it was evident that they both warmed up to her very quickly. She administered medication and provided detailed updates. I was able to have a stress free trip and will be booking with her again.
Gillian provided top-notch care for my four dogs, and I'm so thankful to have found her. After meeting the dogs, she put my mind at ease, and the daily photos she sent were a lovely surprise. When we returned home, the dogs were happy and relaxed, a testament to Gillian's excellent care. We'll be sure to book her again for our next trip - she's definitely earned our trust!
Chuck was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Atlas! Atlas is a large breed with a very 'big' personality and can be a bit intimidating with his barking at first, but Chuck handled him with professional ease and a great 'dogs will be dogs' attitude. We really appreciated the detailed visit summaries and the photos he sent for every single drop-in—it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Chuck is professional, reliable, and clearly great with animals. Atlas was so happy when we returned! We will definitely be booking Chuck again for our future trips and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Oaklyn 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 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 Oaklyn 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.
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 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.
To find sitters in Oaklyn with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
