“Robyn is amazing!! My dog loved her instantly and looks forward to Robyn’s daily visits! Robyn was so accommodating in understanding my senior pup’s needs and no issues with what he needed. Even my cat gets in on the snuggle action when Robyn comes to visit! She is an avid animal lover and it radiates from her from the first moment you meet her! I will absolutely continue requesting Robyn for as long as she will have my crazy crew! I highly recommend her!!”
“Kai & Devon are great with my two cats!! Very trustworthy and always make sure to feed, top water off, and check litter box. I appreciate when they also play with my cats & love seeing all the pictures they take!”
About: I have worked with puppies, senior dogs and in between. Training experience with multiple breeds and will love them as if were my own. Available for any animal, not limited to dogs. I am typically available by appointment as I have a very flexible, work from home career. Occasionally I am free immediately, no harm in asking. I am versatile with any upbringing strategy the owner prefers. If there are specific rules or training methods they are working toward, I will help cross the finish line. If they just want someone to keep their best friend happy and safe, I can do that too.
About: I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite. Nothing in the world makes me happier than spending time with a pet. If the owner can't be around once in a while there is no need for the dog to be lonely. That is why I make the perfect dog sitter, I treat each dog like my very own pet. I care for them and their individual needs the way I would hope someone would care for my dog if I weren't around. My profession includes making my own schedule which allows me the flexibility to care for pets in their owners absence. I try to keep my radius small so that I can stop by every couple of hours for a potty break and some time outside or for some snuggles. I have a dog and cat of my own and take their care very seriously. Both get an abundance of love and snuggles. Our dog goes out multiple times a day- while we don't have a fenced in yard we do have a lot of space and availability for walks at the park a block away.
About: I've had pets in my life from a young age and as soon as I was able got my own dogs and never looked back. I can't imagine my life without a dog (or 2 or 3). I have taken my dogs to training classes and have learned a lot about dog behavior. I enjoy taking my dogs out to the park or walking the neighborhood. I also foster dogs at times and this has been such a rewarding experience for me. I currently work full time at home and am able to care for my animals through out the day. I utilize my lunch break to take them for a walk. I have a fenced in yard that allows my dogs to be free and play outside. I also have crates in the house if the dogs prefer some alone time. I am familiar with dogs of all personalities and am able to give them what they need while in my care.
About: Hello my name is Millie and I am an adventurous person who loves all animals big or small. I have taken care of pets from a very young age. My first love for dogs started with a high energy Boxer. I am patient and caring and love being around animals. Whether that means walking them while you’re at work or spending more time with them while you go on vacation, they’ll be in good hands. I listen carefully to your instructions and take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, personality, and routine. When you entrust me with your fur baby, you can feel confident knowing I’ll provide attentive, loving, and dependable care while keeping you updated and making sure both you and your pet are comfortable and happy. I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree full-time, which gives me a consistent schedule for pet care. Monday through Friday, I’m available before 8:00 AM and after 5:00 PM. My weekends are more flexible, allowing me to accommodate a wider range of pet-care needs. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to providing attentive care while working around your pet’s routine. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication administration, and maintaining a clean and comfortable environment. I treat every home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I’m attentive to changes in a pet’s behavior or routine and will communicate with pet parents throughout the visit so they know their fur baby is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: Hi! 🐾 I’m an experienced pet care professional with nearly a decade of experience caring for and working with animals. While dogs absolutely have my heart, I’m also experienced and comfortable caring for cats! I currently work professionally in dog daycare as well as pet sitting and dog walking, so I’m experienced with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I understand that every pet is different, and I always take the time to learn their individual routine, personality, boundaries, and favorite things. 💕 Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether that means plenty of playtime, long walks, cuddles, enrichment, or simply keeping them comfortable and sticking closely to their normal routine, I want your pet to feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I also have experience administering medications and following detailed care instructions. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, attention, and love I’d want someone to give my own. You can relax knowing they’re in experienced, caring hands! 🐶🐱💗 Meet & Greet: I require a complimentary 15–30 minute meet & greet before confirming a new service. This gives us a chance to go over your pet’s routine and care needs, allows your pet to get comfortable with me, and helps make sure we’re a great fit for one another. Safety and comfort—for you, your pet, and me—always come first! Pet care is already part of my everyday routine! I work professionally with animals, so providing attentive, reliable, and loving care comes naturally to me. I have a dog of my own who I absolutely love caring for and training, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands! 🐾 I’m a huge believer in enrichment and love keeping pets mentally and physically fulfilled through walks, play, training, sniffing, and plenty of affection. I also pay close attention to body language and signs of stress or discomfort, and I never force interactions. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them with the same patience, attention, and care I give my own pup. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely happy while they’re with me! 💕
“Therese was awesome! She toon a last minute job over the holidays which I am super thankful of. She sent pictures and checked in with great info everyday. She even helped me with some package issues I was having. I would book her again. Thanks, Therese!”
“We asked Berrangere to watch our pup at the last minute. She took Winnie in long walks and spent a lot of time with her at home. She was really thorough and positive in her messaging and quick to respond. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with rabbits and various small pets. My first dog, Toto, was trained by me in elementary and middle school. Now, I spend my evenings caring for others animals whenever possible! I work 7:30 am to 3 pm as a teacher! My day does allow for a mid day visit, distance depending! Free every evening for walks and lots of attention! Experienced with crate trained dogs and more free range styles. Love building trust with animals and keeping their days typical and calm while their owners are away!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and other small animals since I was 10 years old. I have experience walking, boarding , and daily care. I love animals and provide kind and sensitive care . I work from home Monday-Friday and go into the office one day per month. My dog passed away in November 2023 so I would really love to have some dog energy in my life again. I currently work full time from home Monday through Friday. I have flexible time throughout the day to care for animals in my home or in the pet owners home. I have a yard and a nice neighborhood to go on long walks . I can easily store a crate in my home if needed. I can also visit your pet in their home several times a day to provide care or walks.
About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life growing up, I've had a few years of experience with cats both at home and taking care of roommates' pets. I've participated in dog training classes growing up, so I have good knowledge from that. I'm currently working part-time, so I generally have 3 to 4 days a week open, and live right on the trolley line in West Philadelphia, so I have decent range. I like to make sure I know what all the animal is eating, and try to stray from that as little as possible. As far as boarding goes, I have a small studio apartment, so I have very limited options there.
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I offer help with daily walks, feeding, playtime, litter box and potty care, crate routines, and giving basic medications when needed. I also work on reinforcing training cues so pets can stay consistent with whatever structure they already have at home. I’m very attentive and patient, and I pay close attention to animal body language so I can understand how each pet is feeling and what they need. I treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

I am available for pet care throughout the day depending on scheduling needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can be flexible and adjust my time to make sure pets are getting regular attention, exercise, and companionship.

In clients’ homes, I respect routines and spaces while ensuring pets are supervised, comfortable, and stress-free. I stay alert on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and communicate promptly if anything seems off.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. I've watched many neighbors, family, and friends fur babies, alongside caring for my own dog and cats, over the years. I've even cared for a rabbit, hamster, and fish on occasion. I am no stranger to caring for pets with medical requirements, or cats and dogs who are older and need a little more patience on walks, going up stairs, or just moving around. Animals all have their own personalities, just like humans, and I treat each pet with compassion, love, and care; as if they are my own. I'm well-versed in giving cats and dogs medication; my dog takes meds every morning. I will tread your pets with kindness and respect and work with you to ensure you are comfortable with me and our working relationship. I have a flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. I am able to accommodate caring for (feeding, playing, spending time with, etc) and/or walking your fur baby during the week and most weekends. I'm happy to work with you and accommodate a schedule that benefits you and your fur baby! Safety and security are top priority. I want to ensure I care for your pet(s) in a comfortable, happy, and safe manor. I would like to learn about your pet(s), how you would like me to care for them, and have an open communication throughout my time caring for your fur baby. Happiness and trust are extremely important for all parties involved!

“Danielle is a wonderful pet sitter who took superb care of Java while I was away. Last minute, Java was prescribed medicine and Danielle was able to give Java his meds without problem while I was gone. My heart felt at ease with Java in Danielle’s care!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rachel was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and caring with both our dog and cats. She followed our instructions perfectly, arrived exactly when requested, and did an excellent job taking care of all our pets. Rachel was dependable, punctual, respectful, and genuinely kind to our animals. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pets. We will absolutely use her again!
Callie was so kind and so accommodating!! My husband and I booked her last minute to watch our pets while we were at our wedding, and she was so kind and flexible with our last minute request. She also took her time to make sure our dog, Maddie, was comfortable with her being in our home, which we really appreciated, because our dog can be a little nervous when meeting new people. She also was great with her updates of our pets and was super communicative!! We would definitely recommend Callie to anyone!! We will definitely be booking with her again!!
We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Breanna! She has known Harper since we moved to Media three years ago, and over that time, she has become such a constant, caring presence in our lives. She has followed us through one house move and even two pregnancies, always showing Harper the same incredible level of love and attention. Breanna goes so far above and beyond what you could ever expect from a dog walker. Her updates and notes show just how closely she pays attention to Harper and how genuinely invested she is in her well-being. We always feel completely confident knowing Harper is in her care. And somehow, she manages to make our lives a little easier, too. She’ll bring in our mail and packages, and on more than one occasion, she’s even put away a loaf of bread I accidentally left sitting on the counter after a hectic morning with my two boys. Breanna is reliable, kind, attentive, trustworthy, and truly treats Harper like her own. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog with their whole heart. Harper absolutely adores her, and so do we!
Madeline was fantastic for caring for our dog Mason. We had a great meet and greet and she brought treats that Mason instantly fell in love. Madeline provided great progress reports and dropped in on Mason at the scheduled times. We appreciate her care and attention she gave Mason and will book her again!
We are so lucky to have found Rachel! She took amazing care of our dog, Marnie. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and I could tell she was taking care of our dog like she was her own. She was reliable and I could enjoy my trip without worrying about my dog or my house. Will DEFINITELY be using Rachel to watch Marnie in the future.
Jacqueline 🐕🦺🐾 was great. While I was away, she took time out of her schedule to check on both my cat and dog. They both enjoyed our company very much. She was kind, timely, and responsive to all of my messages. I look forward to working with her again in the near future.
Karen was wonderful with my 2 dogs! She is reliable, caring and kept me updated with photos and messages. My dogs were so well cared for and I could see how happy and content they were in the photos! Knowing they were in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone!
Catherine is great! My fur babies think so too. They are relaxed when I come home and I can tell they've had a good day and not been stressed. She sends me pictures when she comes in to feed and play with them and my cat doesn't hide. I would 100% recommend her to someone looking for a sitter.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Prospect Park 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
