About: I enjoy walking daily and I also love long distance running so if you have a dog that would like to run that would be wonderful. I have young kids to pick up and drop off early morning but then I have my day to the animals which is equally fun . I am also available weekends. I am a cat owner and my 3 cats are part of my family. However I can’t have pets at my house because of my cats. I would love to visit your pets at their home. I also have worked in healthcare for 2 decade’s administrating medication. I and able to give injections to pets if needed .
“Amy was so wonderful with my dog Chloe! I requested her on short notice before a holiday weekend and she responded extremely quickly. She was so friendly and personable- I felt at ease leaving Chloe in her care for the day. I appreciated Amy’s detailed notes for each drop in, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Thanks so much!!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’m a cat owner myself and have two wonderful female cats. I’m passionate about providing care. I volunteer at the SPCA and received training in both feline and canine behavior and handling. I regularly attend cat adoption events to help cats find loving homes. A few years ago, my family drove hours to adopt my now 4 year old cat, Francis, after finding her through a Craigslist listing. I’ve also sat pets for family and friends, cats and dogs. I have experience caring for small animals such as hamsters, gerbils, and mice. I use SEPTA and Lyft for transportation, for that reason, I prefer bookings within Philly. My services are available to you and your pet 24/7. My personal routine is very flexible! Your pet comes first and will always be under my supervision during the stay. I am Fear Free® certified and aim for every pet to feel safe and comfortable in my care. I follow any given instructions and keep you updated during the stay with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Brianna was kind enough to accept our very last minute request and came over to meet the cats and get care instructions ahead of time. Very happy to have found a friendly and professional sitter in our new town.”
“After just one visit, Uni already loves Elley! She’s amazing and treats my fur baby with so much care. We’re both so happy we found her. Highly recommend Elley to anyone looking for loving pet care!”
About: I have never lived in a household without a fur baby being present. We've own big and small dogs, a cat, and even a bunny at one point. Being a pet owner is all I've ever known so I am pretty confident in my knowledge of pets and just pet parent intuition. I have recently left my full time job and started my own photography business so my schedule is extremely flexible and open. The only day I am typically unavailable is Sundays. I promise to treat every pet baby as if they were my own. I know that pets are more like family than anything so you/they would have a friend in me.
“Christina dropped in on Benno the cat while we were away on a brief trip. I appreciate Christina's service for many things, here are 3. 1. Flexible: we knew we'd be out of town, we did not know when...until we did. 2. Excellent communication and responsiveness. 3. She is winning Benno over...Have already rebooked!”
“Daniel stuck it out when my dog Nelly gave him a hard time during her check-in! She’s very skeptical of strangers, but he won her over and provided great commentary throughout the process. Hugely appreciated!”

“Trederica was wonderful! Kept me updated with pictures every visit & accommodated all my needs when it came to my fur baby, would absolutely book her again.”
About: I am well rounded in all animals and have had many dogs and cats throughout the years. On average I have at least 6 pets in my home whom i take care of, walk, feed, and clean. My dog gets medicine so I am good with giving dogs pills. As well as cats because two of my cats take pills and one gets two shots everyday for diabetes. I walk my dogs daily and love taking them to see new things and go to new places! I love cats and am capable of cleaning after them, like scooping the litter. I also have experience with pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. On my profile currently I selected no pets because I cannot bring any pets with me to hangout with other animals as I am living at college currently. I am a college student so my schedule changes everyday. Taking care of pets is a great addition to my day and good way to get outside. So anytime i am not in class i am available for walks! In my own home I feed and water my pets everyday, as well as scooping the litter twice a day, walking the dogs on a long walk at least once a day. I can give medication if need be as well. In clients home I am able to do the same treatment as needed.

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 Palmyra 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.

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.
