Charlotte did an excellent job with my dogs and I could see in the pictures how comfortable they were with her. This was the first time I had someone come in to help and I was instantly amazed at how much the dogs liked her. I would recommend Charlotte to anyone looking for assistance and hope to use her again in the future.

Tara was incredibly helpful while our family was vacationing and needed some help checking in on our pup! Our dog Chelsea can be shy and after meeting Tara, we knew our Chelsea was in good hands!

About: I have taken care of dogs and had cats for many years. I understand not every pet is the same and would love to get to know your furry friend(s). I am working full time, a mother of two.

About: I have grown up my whole life with two dogs at a time. I have years of experience with small-large dogs. I understand the love, care, and needs of your pet. I am involved in a pet therapy research study with my full-time job. Dogs are the best! Two days a week I have flexibility throughout the day, and I am mostly available on the weekends for drop-ins. I would love to fill this time by caring for your pet, whether it be letting them out, taking them for a walk, feeding them, playing with them, giving them treats, and/or administering medications if needed. I will treat your pet as my own. I hope to brighten their day just as they brighten mine. It can be hard when life gets busy, or the workdays are long, and I hope to give you peace of mind knowing that your pet is well taken care of when you can't be there.

Elena came to my house twice a day over Thanksgiving break and then, due to a family emergency, she agreed to extend the visits for another five days. She was so accommodating and flexible and took great care of my cat. It was a relief to know that he was in such good care while dealing with other family matters out of state. Highly recommend!

About: Calm, direct, structured dog walker/sitter. Strong behavior cue recognition, leash skills, and vet/med/admin experience. Great with larger dogs, seniors, and nervous pets. Daily, I check messages, confirm schedules, and plan calm walks/sitting times. Weekends I block longer visits for feeding/meds and behavior notes, keeping routines consistent and stress-free. In clients’ homes, I keep routines consistent, minimize stress, follow written instructions closely, and do calm, structured walk/feeding/med support. I provide behavior notes and quick check-ins.

About: Animals have always been a piece of my heart. I love every single breed of dogs. I’m always the one someone calls when they need a pet sitter. I care for the animals like no other. I have worked in the doggy daycare/ boarding industry for 2 years, I am a farm girl at heart. I have owned many animals including horses, goats, pigs, chickens, turkeys, & roosters! Right now I am unemployed since I had a cross country move. I am available all day everyday to sit with your pup, play, walk, whatever you would need me to do! I have my own Golden Retriever and Siberian Husky that loves to play. You will always catch my golden and I at the dog park. We love to play fetch!

About: I currently work from home for a family business, but I am looking to expand my own business and passion - taking care of animals! I worked for doggy daycares and boarding facilities for 3.5 years, ensuring the safety, happiness, and health of a wide variety of dog breeds and ages. I have administered medications, completed dog handling courses, and grooming training as well. This led me to groom professionally full-time for 2 years after college. I now prefer to do at-home bathing sessions and spend more time with pets one-on-one in a homey environment. In addition to dogs, I have taken care of fish, cats, amphibians, lizards, and birds. I have a 9 year old bunny of my own, so I am well-versed in rabbit care. Throughout high school, I volunteered at PetSmart taking care of the cats and at Diane's Pet Supplies, too, walking their dogs. These are all in addition to being my primary neighborhood dog-sitter/walker. Pet sitting fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely with a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to adjust my day around your pet’s needs—whether that means regular walks, consistent feeding times, play breaks, or simply being present for companionship. I’m able to provide frequent check-ins. For stays in my own house, because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and interaction. My flexible schedule also allows me to closely follow your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care to keep them comfortable and well cared for. I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable care for every pet I look after. I’m happy to take your dog on walks, follow feeding instructions closely, and administer any medications as needed. When caring for your pet in your home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while you’re away. I also pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being, ensuring your pet stays happy, healthy, and at ease. If your dog is staying in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own. They’ll enjoy plenty of affection, attention, and enrichment throughout the day—including couch privileges, treats (as approved), and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home, your pet will have near-constant supervision and companionship, allowing me to closely monitor their safety, comfort, and health for a smooth and enjoyable stay!

About: I have been a lifelong animal lover and have always had pets of my own including, cats, dogs, and even small animals! Caring for animals has always been something I’m passionate about and I truly enjoy giving them the attention and care they deserve. Over the years, I have always owned cats, I currently have 3, so I am very experienced with them. I have dog sat many times for neighbors, friends, and family and have enjoyed it a lot. I am comfortable giving medications to animals or providing extra attention for those with special care requirements! I’m currently a third year college student at Penn State University. I have mostly morning classes, so afternoons and nights I am available to take care of animals! My cats are well-fed and get tons of attention! I love playing with my cats and making sure they are always happy. I maintain the litter boxes each day to ensure they’re well taken care of.

About: We are nestled on 2.5 acres in North Coventry Township. We have a large portion of the property fenced in offering plenty of safe playtime. Our beloved bulldog went to the Rainbow Bridge & we are currently pet free. ** Please note – while we are currently dog free, we are no longer hosting non dog friendly. I have an animal science degree and have owned and operated a pet sitting business for over 20 years. I have also worked as an educator for the Philadelphia Zoo. Animals are my education and my career, taking "animal lover" to a different level. :-) We are unable to host large dogs. Small to medium sized dogs only. We host one dog at a time to make sure your furkid gets our undivided attention. If you live in the Pottstown area, I am also able to offer drop in visits & walking at your home. Please message for details. Additionally, we offer bird/parrot boarding if you or someone you know would like for their feathered kid to have lots of interaction. I have decades of bird experience from my time working at the Zoo & I had an African Grey parrot for 20 years. I have many sized cages available for your birds stay (if you choose to use one of mine) to allow for a seamless pick up/drop off experience. Feel free to message me with any specific questions.😁🐶🦜 I own a pet sitting business & have a flexible schedule that allows me to be home for long periods at a time. I’m in & out, but more in than out. Jason is also home full-time three days per week. Between both of our schedules, there is very close to constant company. I have a large fenced in yard fior plenty of secure and supervised playtime. I only take one dog at a time to make sure this is a fun & safe experience. I own a pet sitting business, so I’m in and out throughout the day. Jason is home full-time three days per week and home until 3:30 the other days. There is close to constant supervision. We have a spacious and secure fenced in yard in a country setting. We have some acreage where we can walk your dog as well. Unless we're out doing something together, someone is usually home. There may an occasional hour or two that no one is home. So pretty close to constant supervision. I have a very large & secure fenced in area. I always ask owners what they do with their dog at home & try to match that. For example, if you crate when you leave your house, I would do the same.

We had a wonderful experience with Ariel watching our dogs while we were out of state . She provided daily updates, which gave us great peace of mind, and it was clear that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She was attentive, reliable, and treated our dogs like they were her own. We came home to happy pups and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!

I highly recommend Madison!!! They followed all my instructions for feeding and giving my senior dogs their medications, and were careful to monitor that the dogs didn't get each other's food (which is very important because one is allergic to the others food), and then spent time giving love to both my dogs! I particularly appreciated that my oldest (who loves getting pet but can sometimes be overlooked because her younger brother is super social) got plenty of attention (along with her brother) and both were super content and happy when I got home later! It's hard to find someone I trust to care for my sweet senior beagles, both have medical conditions, and I'm so glad I came across Madison!!! I have complete confidence and trust in Madison, and I can tell they truly care about my dogs and will take great care of them when I can't be here! I will definitely use Madison as my first choice next time I need someone to take care of my beagles!

Alec was amazing. Truly. We weren't able to do a meet and greet due to a last minute cancellation from another sitter. Alec jumped right in and took amazing care of our dog and was so willing to help with extra little things for our cat who is generally self sufficient. He was timely and stayed with our dog while we were away to make sure she was okay. I will definitely be using Alec in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Pottstown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Pottstown on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,405 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Pottstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Pottstown 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 Pottstown 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 Pottstown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pottstown. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
