About: I have had dogs since I was born, I love every breed of dogs no matter their size. I have watched my neighbors dogs over the years and I missed it, so I just really want to help out owners and help the dogs experience a little bit of a better day than being locked inside all day especially during the nice summer weather. I do work part time at a retail store but they give me no hours really so I am very free and flexible. Just hit me up at least a day ahead and I got you. I am a very cautious person, I really care for dog’s safety. I will do anything to keep dogs safe. I know what it feels like when someone else watches your dog. I will go to my full extent to keep the dog and owner happy.
About: Long-time Dog Lover and Owner Here! I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old, ranging from Beagles to Pits but I love all breeds of dogs. Over the years I’ve done lots of dog sitting for friends and family and am always up for some good play time and cuddle time with doggos. I’m experienced with administering medication to dogs and cats. I’m also a quick learner and will be very mindful about particular requests in caring for your dog. I love to walk all over the city and look forward to taking your fur babies along with me!. If you have any more questions don’t hesitate to contact me. I look forward to meeting you and spoiling your pups with lots of love! Note: Unfortunately, I cannot care for or accommodate cats as I am highly allergic :( I currently work mornings until 2pm and live close to work so I have full afternoons and evenings available for your fur baby. I’m also off on weekends and have open availability. I have a fenced in yard and no pets currently. I do have a 5-year-old child but she has been around dogs and is very kind and gentle with them. However, your dog must be ok with small children. I also live in a neighborhood with wide sidewalks and a nearby playground making it super easy to walk your dog. I also have a car so I can easily drive to places in the area to for drop-in visits and dog sitting.
“Daniel was super thoughtful and a great pet sitter for my cat Roy. Roy fell in love with him immediately, and I received lots of updates and pictures throughout. I'll happily rebook!”
“1,000% recomend Sam! This was my first time using this app. So I was a little apprehensive. I was leaving for a week and needed someone to watch my three cats.. my fur babies. As soon as I met Sam, I knew I chose the right person. She was warm great personality, big smile! I went away for a week, and Sam was on point checked in with pictures and updates every visit. By the third visit, my cats had warmed up to her and allowed her to pet them which warmed my heart! I felt so happy that I found a pet care giver, who could make my pets, feel safe, warm, and loved! thank you so much, Sam! I’ll be using you real soon again! 😀🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛”
About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds including not just cats and dogs, I currently care for 2 cats and 2 dogs and love them all. I volunteered at an animal shelter for multiple years and want to continue animal based experiences! I work currently part time but often have my weekends free and enjoy a good walk after getting off of my job, I do part time teacher work so the mental refresh is helpful I believe in utmost safety priority, including surveying surroundings constantly for threats, adjusting to it situationally and avoiding drawing attention to it incase it excites the animal.
About: I’ve taken care of many different clients and run a business working with cats, dogs, fish, birds etc. Providing quality and affordable pet care for your pets. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Each day starts with checking in on the pets under my care, ensuring they are well-fed, hydrated, and comfortable. Throughout the day, I schedule regular playtimes and walks to keep them active and happy. I meticulously follow any specific instructions provided by pet owners, such as administering medication or adhering to particular feeding schedules. By prioritizing the well-being of the pets I look after, I ensure they receive the consistent, loving care they deserve, seamlessly integrating pet care into my everyday life. Check us out on social media otepetsitting & otecarrentals. Caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, involves providing a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. In my home, I ensure that pets have their own designated spaces, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and access to fresh water and nutritious food. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment, free of hazards and full of love and attention. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their specific instructions to maintain the pet’s routine and comfort. This includes feeding, administering medication, providing exercise, and ensuring companionship. I respect the client’s home as if it were my own, keeping it tidy and secure. Whether at my place or theirs, my goal is to create a stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, ensuring the pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for at all times.
“Hali has been a life saver. So grateful for her. She took pics and kept me up to date with her visits. Loved the pictures. She is compassionate towards the animals. Will definitely use her again”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful. She was communicative via the Rover app or text messaging. She took great care of our 3 kitties which is no easy task cause they are a handful. She was able to give my oldest kitty her medication with no problem and kept the litter boxes nice and clean. The 3 kitties loved her and were happy to cuddle. We will definitely use her in the future if she is free!”

“Davene is a wonderful cat sitter! She just took care of my three kitties over Thanksgiving. I appreciated how quick she was to respond to my request and her offer of an initial visit to meet the cats and get our instructions in person. She was very gentle and sweet with the kitties, and I could tell that they really liked her. Davene followed all instructions and left the place neat and clean. I highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again.”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life and love every type breed and size. I am the go to friend when a friend needs someone to come let their dogs out or watch them over a weekend. I have a 3 year old Pitt/Staffy that I rescued when he was very young. I work 4 days a week, which I will typically block off, but am home several times for walks and care. If needing days covered outside my availability, given it would be a good fit and pickup/dropoff works with my schedule, I can try to accommodate. I block off any time I’ll be out of town and mainly just chill at home with my own pitty otherwise. We go on daily walks for the needed exercise and energy burn. My apartment is smaller but we have a great neighborhood to walk in. We have Pennypack park I go to for walks frequently and visit other outdoor dog parks in Jersey once a weekend. I have an extra crate if it’s needed and lots of toys.
About: I have lived with both cats and dogs my whole life and have always loved being around animals. I have experience caring for pets for family members while they were on vacation, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they felt comfortable and cared for. I understand how important pets are to a family, and I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I am graduating college in December and most of my classes are online. I also work part-time, and my job is partially remote, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because of this flexibility, I am available most days and can adjust my availability to fit pet care needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings when needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every pet care situation. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, and routines to keep pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. I make sure doors are secure, water is always fresh, and pets are never left in unsafe situations. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and close attention to their individual needs.
About: I have been a pet owner for over five years with two cats and one dog that I love so much back in my home state! With that I have over five years of pet care experience. While in college here i’m Chicago, my friends and teammates trust me to walk, feed, and keep their pets safe while working or away on vacation! Available for Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Weekends as well! I am pretty flexible with time so just let me know what times work best for you and if you need me to take care of your pet a little longer! Pets are family! So I ensure to monitor them closely and pick up on any signs, issues, and concerns that may negatively impact their safety. I always as pet owners if there is anything specific in their home or on walks that I need to look out for. Such as things their pet may tend to get into or walking routes that have potential hazards.
About: I have experience with all types of animals from cats, dogs, birds, and even chinchillas. Walking them is a pleasure and also makes me happy since they also get some time out of the house. I’m available to walk in the mornings to get that early rise as well as in the afternoons! It’s nice to get to walk outside and get some sunshine but also chill if needed. For my pets on my home as well as my clients I make sure they’re stimulated enough as well as have all the care they need.

Miranda is amazing! Both my puppies love her and are always happy to see and engage with Miranda. I always revive a very detailed report for every visit, she is very detail oriented and notices behaviors and/or makes very good recommendations. I totally trust her advise and insight
Andrew was phenomenal! We used him to put our senior dog out 3 times a day while we were on vacation. He was caring, punctual, and great with updating me on how our dog was! My dog was also very comfortable with Andrew and had no problems eating or doing his business while we were away! He made sure our dog was very well taken care of! Definitely suggest Andrew if you want your mind at ease while leaving your animal when you go away!

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 Riverton 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 Riverton 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 .

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

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.
