About: I’m an experienced pet caregiver with a strong background in handling dogs, cats, and small animals. I’m also skilled in feeding, walking, grooming, and providing loving, attentive care. I’m available part-time with a flexible schedule, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m eager and ready to help when you may need an extra hand! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, or during outside activities, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s needs.

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 .
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy! I had a Golden Retriever for five and a half years who took daily medication, so I’m comfortable following specific routines and medication instructions. I’ve also fostered two dogs through rescue organizations, both of whom were successfully adopted. I’ve cared for four dogs through TrustedHousesitters and received 5-star reviews, and I’m the trusted dog sitter for family and friends. These experiences have given me the opportunity to care for dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work remotely full-time with a flexible schedule, giving me plenty of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s routine. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and will work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and your schedule. I live on my own with no other pets, so your pup will have my full attention! While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, there are plenty of grassy areas and sidewalks throughout my dog-friendly neighborhood that are perfect for walks and exploring. There are also plenty of friendly neighborhood dogs for pups who enjoy socializing, while everyone is respectful of dogs who prefer to have their own space. I’m happy to follow your pup’s comfort level and routine!
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.
“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: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I grew up caring for dogs of all ages and sizes.. from tiny puppies to beloved senior dogs, and everything in between. ❤️ Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra attention while you’re away, a bath and some TLC, or simply a reliable friend to keep them company, I’d love to help! 🐶🐾 Your pets’ happiness, safety, and comfort are always my top priority. ❤️ I am currently a stay at home Mom so I am home daily, mostly all day. We enjoy taking walks and spending lots of time outside! We have pleanty of chew toys, balls, and frizbees!! I have a fenced in gass yard, lots of space to run around freely. Our animals are aloud on couches, so yours will be too!
“We can’t say enough good things about Amber! She is absolutely amazing, and thanks to her, we never have to worry about our cats when we’re away. She’s not only reliable and professional but also genuinely caring and attentive to our cats’ needs. Every time we come home, they’re happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly, highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Dan visited our cat and made sure he got lots of love while we were away. Our cat needs two types of medication and he handled it all and kept us updated, which was a huge relief. Was glad we booked with him for this trip!”
About: There has never been a time where I have not had pets in my household. From dogs to cats to fish to frogs, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. As a proud cat mom of six, I understand how important it is to have someone patient, affectionate, and trustworthy caring for your pets while you’re away. I treat every animal like family and always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable! 🐾🫶🏼 I’ve personally cared for cats through every stage of life and many different health needs, from raising one of my own as a neonate with around the clock bottle feeding and litter training, to supporting my childhood cat through his end of life care. I’m experienced with administering medications (typically liquid via treats), some post-surgical care, eye infections, epilepsy management, allergy sensitivities, and more. Whether your cat is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet cuddle and companionship, I’m always happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. 🐈🐈⬛❤️ While cats are definitely my specialty, I’m just as happy spending time with dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve pet sat for family and friends many times over the years and genuinely enjoy getting outside for walks, playtime, and keeping pups happy and loved while their favorite humans are away. 🐶🦴 I’m also a very clean and detail oriented person, so you can trust me to keep litter boxes, food areas, crates, and any pet related messes tidy. I never mind cleaning up after pets, as caring for them and your home comfortably and respectfully is just part of the job for me. 🏡🫧🧹 I currently work from home as a Compute Support Specialist from 7am to 4pm, Sunday through Thursday. This gives me the flexibility to step out after work, and I can’t think of anything better than spending that time caring for pets. I am more than happy to check in on your pets after work or any time on my off days (Friday + Saturday), so long as I’m available. I’m very detail oriented when caring for pets in a client’s home and always follow any instructions or checklists closely, whether that includes feeding routines, wet food, litter box care, playtime, or walks for dogs. If no checklist is provided, no problem! 🫶🏼 I still make sure pets are well fed, comfortable, and cared for, and that their spaces are clean and tidy before I leave. I always send a check in as an update as well, because I know how important communication is when someone else is caring for your pet. 🏡

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.

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.
