About: I’ve house sat for friends and family for many years (dogs and cats included). I also work at an animal hospital, so I have some first aid experience as well. I typically will have work either from 7-2 or 2-8:30 most days. But I am willing to find the time to care for your pet as I do the pets at work I go at your pets’ pace. I know every pet has their own personalities and quirks so I do my best to accommodate them where they are at.

About: My whole life I have had dogs, from puppies to senior dogs. I know how to cater to all personalities of pets. I have also pet sat for multiple friends and family for both dogs and cats. I enjoy being around animals and taking care of them with whatever they may need. I can pet sit about every other day, weekends as well.I can also do multiple days in a row if need be, I am open to also spending nights with the animals, whatever is needed for you. I am very attentive to my own dogs and will be very attentive to yours as well. I always make sure their needs are met. I make sure they are taken very good care of. I am very patient, especially with senior dogs. I don’t get frustrated easily. I provide love and care to all animals I come in contact with.
About: I've had dogs and other animals throughout my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I've also spent years helping friends with their pets, from regular dog sitting and walks to grooming and everyday care. I'm patient, gentle, reliable, and very comfortable getting to know an animal's individual personality and routine. I'm also genuinely an outdoors person, so your dog's walk isn't something I'm trying to rush through. I'm happy to let them explore, sniff, stretch their legs, and enjoy being outside. Whether your pet needs a good walk, some playtime and company while you're away, or simply a dependable person to stop in and make sure they're happy and cared for, I'll treat them with the same attention I'd want someone to give my own. My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for weekday walks and drop-in visits. I especially enjoy daytime walks and can accommodate both regular weekly schedules and occasional visits when you need an extra hand. I take your pet's safety and routine seriously and will always follow the instructions you provide for walks, feeding, medications, doors and gates, and anything else your pet needs. I'll treat your home with respect and keep you updated during every visit so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I am the biggest lover of dogs! There are no limits when it comes to loving your dog and being a doggie mom myself - there’s nothing more special than loving and nurturing your dog and showing them the best quality of life. They give such unconditional love and to show that love back to them is priceless! I will treat your dog like they are my own - kisses and hugs and running and having fun! I am a nurturer by nature and a protective momma bear and I would always make sure your doggies are in the safest environments. I truly have so much love for all animals and dogs hold a special place in my heart. They deserve the world and more!
“Reina was great. She stayed at my house with my fur baby for 7 days. She sent me daily updates and lots of pictures. Finn has a seizure disorder and requires meds twice a day. She made sure that he received them on time. I would use Reina again in the future :)”
About: Ive taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to feed, play with, walk and check in on their pets. I currently am not working so have plenty of time to spend with your pet and care for them. They will have constant company and companionship. I have a fenced in yard for your pet to run and I have a friendly pets to keep them company. I can also crate your pet if needed to.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old, and I grew up around larger breeds, such as pitbulls. I also have experience with dogs who are aggressive towards other dogs. Taking care of pets is a daily routine and it should always be on a consistent schedule. I always make sure to feed and walk my pets before and after going to work. I also make sure to give them adequate attention and play time. I always make sure to keep pets from getting into things that may harm them or make them sick, and I like to give dogs at least 15-20 of walking time to get their energy out.

I really can’t say enough good things about Alexa. She was simply fabulous with my two little girls. See kept me updated at all times and sent pictures of my girls. In just two days I got 27 pictures. It really gave me a peace of mind. Thank you soooooo much much Alexa.

Bridgett was a wonderful care taker for our 2 standard poodles. She took them on long walks and sent pictures of them enjoying the sunshine. Bridgett stayed in our home for 8 nights and we came home to a very clean and orderly home. I would definitely use her again.
Alyssa was wonderful! Will use her again! This was my first experience with having a dog sitter and through this site! Would highly recommend! Alyssa came prior to our vacation and met us and lady. Super sweet girl! During our trip she kept in contact since she knew I was nervous and sent lots of pictures! Thank you again Alyssa!
This is our first time using the Rover service and so glad we did! Rachel was awesome and couldn't asked for better care for our 2 cats. Rachel arrived as expected and stayed and played with them each time, sending pictures along the way. I felt very comfortable with Rachel and how well our babies took to her. Will definitely be using Rachel for future needs. Thanks Rachel!!! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Penndel on Rover is $46.89 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,343 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Penndel. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Penndel walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Penndel maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Penndel 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
