“Ashley is prompt, reliable, and trustworthy. I’ve had issues with prior sitters being unreliable or intimidated by my boys (two Great Danes and a Lab mix) but Ashley handles them like a pro. Also I think my Lab might be in love with Ashley. Thank you so much!!”

“Thank you for making me comfortable for leaving my dogs with someone other than my family for the first time ever. Especially with my one dog that takes meds on a schedule. My young dog and my older dog were in good hands. I appreciated the updates and pictures and updates. I will use Marissa again in the future. I am happy to have found someone to occasionally care for me big furry kids.”

“Kailey is very thorough attending to our cats needs and keeping us updated daily with pictures. This is our second time having Kailey take care of our cats and we will most definitely have her come again, highly recommend!”

“Jen is the most amazing person to spend time with my very elderly soulmate. She is so kind and gentle. Camo was so happy when she came to visit. Jen made suggestions regarding how to make Camo more comfortable knowing he was coming to the end of his life. Her kindness and compassion were beyond compare.”
About: I am currently studying at Wilson College for my Bachelors degree in Veterinary Nursing and am going into my junior year. I have experience volunteering at a cat shelter and I have pet sit friends’ cats and dogs. I as well have had a family dog, my cat, and my 2 rats! I absolutely love all animals and I will take the best care of your fur babies as if they were my own while you relax! During these summer months I am (for the most part) a completely open book! I will select the days I am not available, but majority of my time is available! I would make sure your animal feels safe and loved at all times. I will provide them with fresh water always, and treats (with permission). I can also clean up any messes your pet may make in your absence. I also have no problem administering medication, however I would prefer to have a demonstration beforehand or meet beforehand and try with the owner present to ensure your pet is getting the medication they need correctly and calmly! I am able to spend any extra time to play or make sure your pet feels loved and comfortable during your time away!
About: Hello! I appreciate your checking out my profile and considering me to care for your pets. I know how important it is to find a great sittet, and I am available to give them all of my attention, and lots of love, while I take care of them in your absence. I am retired from a long career as a registered nurse and the compassion and care I have for humans, and the care I gave them, I will be glad to offer your fur babies. I have a life long passion for all animals, as a child I worked on a local farm and have taken care of neighbors and friends pets. I also am proficient in horses as I've been involved in grooming, riding them for the past 25 years. After losing Violet, my beautiful husky, and then my precious kitty Tessa, I am grateful for the opportunity to extend my loving care to your pets. I am retired and my schedule is almost always open. I will be respectful of your space and make sure that all your pets needs are met and your house is kept excatly as you left it. I have no problem picking up after dogs nor cleaning up litter. I am a caretaker by nature. I have a perfect house for boarding; it is spacious and I have a big yard with a sizeable fenced in dog area. I also can crate your dog if needed.
About: I have taken care of several animals, and I thoroughly enjoy it! I am very active and find walking or running a hobby with dogs. We would absolutely love to welcome your pup into our home! I currently work full time and get off at 4:30 but have plenty of free time on the weekends, afternoon walks during the weekdays after work! I like to modify my care routine depending on each pet and their needs. In my home I like to provide treats, and toys, with unconditional love. I have a schedule for routine feeding.
“A wonderful experience with Jessica! You can tell - even after a minute of talking with her - how much she loves animals. She took great care of our cat and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”

“Thank you Christine for sitting my kitties and all the pictures you sent with your updates. Christine was quick to respond back when I sent the request. She came over for a meet and greet before I left. Christine was very welcoming very friendly.”

“Michael came over to our house 2 times a day to feed our 2 Rottie shepherd mixes and let them out to use the bathroom. Him and his family were so great with the dogs! Our dogs are incredibly happy and looked like they had the best time ever in every pic! Michael came over in advance to meet the puppies and get an idea of what we needed, which I really appreciated! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our babies. If you are on the fence about who to select and reading everyone’s reviews like I did, I can say Michael was great and we will be recurrent customers for sure and plan on rebooking him for future travels we have coming up! Thank you so much again Michael and family! Our puppies are so happy!”

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends pets as requested for over 9 years. I have taken care of a mix of small to large dogs of a variety of temperaments. I have my own dog who is 4. I am experienced in the puppy stage so if you need help through those tough first months, I’m your gal! I keep a very tidy home due to having a young and adventurous pup of my own, so you’ll never have to worry about your pup getting a hold of something they shouldn’t! I currently work from home full-time. Working from home allows me to easily host pets in my home to watch, play and care for them with ease. I have a large fenced in back yard so trips outside are frequent and easy! On my lunch break I like to spend at least 30 minutes outside giving my dog time to walk around, sniff and get some play time in, and I’d be happy to do that for your pet too! I have a 1 acre fenced in back yard. I have a sweet 4 year old furr baby of my own to keep your dog company during the day. If your dog is shy or gets over stimulated I can easily separate from my dog for breaks.
“We were very pleased with the way Gwen took care of our goldendoodle whole we were away for 8 days. She provided a variety of photos showing our dog walking, sniffing outside, eating, drinking and resting on her bed. We could tell that she was very comfortable. We highly recommend Gwen for short-term as well as longer drop-in visits.”


“I'm so incredibly glad I found Deanna. My cat has a long and complicated medical history, including multiple pills and therapies (even an inhaler). On top of that, I'd never had to leave her home alone before. Needless to say I was WORRIED. But Deanna knows her stuff!!! She took excellent care of my baby and now I never need to be worried about overnight travel again. I will without a doubt rebook house visits with Deanna again (and again and again).”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. When I lived with my dad, we had 2 chihuahuas and 2 pit mixes. I’ve also had bunnies, fish, and birds. I’ve taken care of a chinchilla for a friend. I also used to have a guinea pig named Asher! I am experienced with different animals. I am self employed and have school online for real estate at my own pace, so I am free pretty much any day and any time unless I have an appointment that day! Then I can work after! I can either be a cuddly companion and or play with them by playing fetch or taking them out on walks! I will make sure to keep the house nice and clean while I stay in the home of my clients!😁

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a child. My parents owned 10 acres and I helped care for dogs, pigs, rabbits, birds, sheep, goats and more. I currently own a four year-old golden retriever who I have trained since a puppy, and I am currently beginning training for him to become a Therapy dog so he can bring joy to others, as much as, he’s brought to me. I have been a physical therapist assistant for over 15 years and I am looking to focus more on my family who is getting older and the more important things in life. I’m also looking to find a new path with animals, which is why I am available daily with notice to ensure there is comfort for myself, my dog and for you and your pet as well! I have a 2 1/2 acre yard, it is not fenced so I would need to know if your dog needs to be on a leash or is trained to stay by command. My dog Oakley is four years old, trained by commands and is extremely friendly and has never had any problems with another dog. I sadly cannot take cats because he is scared of them. I am home 24/7, so I am able to be there for all their care, especially if younger and needing to be let out more often or if older and need medicine given at certain times. I have a crate if needed that could be used for small, medium or large breeds.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate routines, basic medication administration, and giving extra patience and attention to dogs with specific needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just a calm companion, I provide loving and reliable care tailored to their routine. I treat every dog like family and work hard to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pup is in good hands. I’m currently a school teacher. So I will be available most days in the summer to care for your pet. This includes spending time with them, walking them, etc. I have 15 acres that your pup and I can explore. Mostly wooded, and does have a small creek. Your pup will get the opportunity to relax and enjoy the ability to either Lounge in the grass in the backyard or go for a walk through the woods.

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 Palmerton 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.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
