Julie was absolutely amazing with my kitties, and it was such a relief to know that they were in great hands while I was away! I loved getting the photos and thoughtful updates she provided, and my cats loved her! I would give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could!

About: I have been taking care of my friends dogs for years now. I never had my own but I am very passionate about playing, feeding, walking, and bathing doggies! I have had plenty of my own cats over the years! Currently I have a two young cats who I have had to provide medicine too due to surgeries. I love playing with my own cats and would be happy to play with yours when needed! During the weekdays, I work til 3pm and will be available after 4pm to care for your animal. Weekends are more open and flexible to tend to your pet. During the summer my schedule is more open because I have off of work since I’m a teacher. I have a nice size backyard for your dog to play in! I also have two cats that can keep them company. I am open to support your pet and their needs however I can.

About: I have had pets all my life. From the hamster in the 80s, turtle in the 90s, and a number of cats and dogs throughout my adult life (as well as a cockatiel), I have always had an amazing connection to animals. I currently have one small rescue dog (Terrier mix) who is about 12. I am routinely the one who will feed, water and walk pets belonging to family and friends. Be it cats or dogs, I will treat your pet with the same love and conscientious care as I do my own fur baby. A little about me...I'm an HR Professional who has worked in Human Resources for over 20 years now. I love the human side of what I do, and thought that having a 'side gig' using those skills of connection and empathy, along with what I have learned over years of caring for my own animals would be a natural fit! I am also a mom of two amazing teenagers and am a recreational runner. Currently, I am available part time for morning and evening walks, and drop-ins for feeding, watering and play for vacations or other situations. I'm currently available throughout the day until August 2nd, and then mornings and evenings after this. I typically have a 3 day notice before taking on a service, however I am occasionally able to accommodate emergency pet care so if you find yourself in this situation, please reach out. Through my years of caring for numerous cats and dogs, I am very conscientious around "escape-ees" (I currently have one) and ensuring that our fur babies are safely kept in the home as I enter. I am respectful of routines and will follow them exactly as described. Also, I will send unprompted, candid video and picture messages of your pet to you frequently during care. This adds to peace of mind and who doesn't love a good random picture of their pet showing up in their messages??

We had a fantastic experience with Audrey! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she was incredibly flexible. We loved receiving lots of pictures and updates during her visit. It was reassuring to see Buddy happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The updates and responsiveness made us feel at ease while we had a nice night out. Most importantly, Buddy was happy and excited to see her, which says it a lot! We highly recommend Audrey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker. We will definitely be booking again!

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life but in the previous 5 years is when I started to watch and take care of them more often I have plenty of time during the week and or weekends to watch 1 or multiple animals. I can stay overnight or do multiple drop in visits a day. I will make sure I have eyes on them on the whole time and tend to their needs when they need something. I will never walk them without a leash and steer away from other dogs being walked when I’m walking yours.

About: When I was younger I used to take care of my neighbors dogs, house sit for them and walk their dogs. I've also raised other animals, like ducks, rabbits, reptiles, and fish. People have always called me the animal whisperer, i've rescued animals and returned them back to wildlife lots of times in my life, and i just think animals (ALL PETS) bring me so much joy and peace , I would do anything for just about any animal that lives, to make their life as fulfilled and loved as i can. My duties for caring for any animal would be properly maintaining their feeding and walking schedules. Bathe and brush(if necessary), playtimes as well as training procedures (if applicable) Pet sitting/House sitting. Your pets will be in great hands! Hello, my availability is posted in my calendar, please check to see if the dates you need a sitter are available in my schedule. If so I will be more than happy to watch after your animals! Thank you! I like to maintain schedule, dietary restrictions, exercise, walking and feeding schedules. Any maintenance that comes along with watching after your pets. You let me know what you need, and I can do it.

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.

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.

About: Dogs may not be our whole life, but they make our life whole. Our hearts were stolen many years ago by our mini golden doodle named Kulfi . She is super friendly, and always looking to make a new friend. Kulfi is a part of our family, and we would treat your pup just the same! Play time and adventure is important to up. We would ensure your fur baby would have the best time with us. We live in Pottstown . We will make sure your fur kid gets our undivided attention always !We absolutely adore dogs and would love to take care of yours! Your dog will be in the best hands and have an abundant amount space to roam and feel comfortable inside and outside. We are CRATE FREE!!!. Unless a pet parent requests us to, we pretty much let your pup roam free in our house. If you decide to book with us, all we ask for is your pup's food, an idea on their feeding and sleeping schedules and a phone number to reach you with pics and updates! You are more than welcome to bring some treats, toys, and/or beds, but we do have toys and healthy treats too. - Drop off and pick up time are almost all hours of the day! Most importantly, we will care for your pup as if they were our own. We know the feeling of being on a trip and thinking or worrying about your dog. He/she will be on their own vacation here, having a blast in the yard or curling up to watch some TV. Either way, he/she will be loved and cared for as well as you do. We work from home so are able to do all-day care and take consistent breaks for walks, potty, and playtime.If you would like, we can set up a meet and greet. These are not necessary, but some pet parents prefer to do it. We are available most evenings. Coworkers, friends, family, and neighbors have all counted on us for pet care for many years. No fenced in yard but great walking neighborhood. House is very dog friendly for them to feel at home. We have a very large yard so there is plenty of room to run and play! Lots of open space to play inside as well. We are home during the day so we can play more and keep you informed.

Skye did an amazing job with our 6 cats. She went ahove and beyond what was asked of her. We received an update with pictures after each visit. Skye spent time giving snuggles to our only girl in the bunch and lickable treats to the couple of boys who enjoy them even though we didn’t ask it of her. Skye truly loves cat’s and it showed in her treating ours like they were her own cats. We will definitely use Skye again for our pet sitting needs…couldn’t have gotten anyone better!

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!

Allison is exactly the type of person I needed. Two shy cats, another with diabetes. By the end of the week the shy ones were coming out of hiding to get attention and the diabetic one was getting daily belly rubs the whole time. I wouldn't hesitate to book Allison again.

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!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Pottstown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,605 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.

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.

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.

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.
