“Greg did a great job with Jack! He stopped by before his bookings for 2 meet and greets to make sure Jack was comfortable. He went above and beyond with the walks, hangouts and training. We’re excited to book Greg again and we know Jack is too.”
About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs for 5+ years. I also have a small dog myself who is thirteen. I have worked with many sizes and breeds of dogs over time and am excited to help! I am currently working part time and taking some college courses. I have a lot of free time to hang out with your little dogs! I have a small dog myself and I know how important safety and care.

About: What sets me apart from other dog caregivers is my genuine love for dogs and the experience I’ve gained from being a dog owner for many years. I currently own a beautiful pit bull that is 11 years old ,her name is Blue. Before my dog Blue, , I owned a miniature pinscher for 14 years who passed away from old age and being ill.I understand that every dog has its own personality, needs, and routines. I enjoy spending time with dogs, making them feel safe, loved, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Especially knowing how important it is to me, when I am away, to know that my dog is cared for fed, and feels safe. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply companionship, I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I do currently work full-time. Although I work full-time, I am done work at 2:30, and off in the summer. My husband has recently passed away. I have a lot more time on my hands to give your pet a lot of love. I am done work early enough that I can get to an owner‘s house for a dinner feeding for your pet, letting your pet out if you have a fenced yard , if not a walk. Playtime for your pet companionship whatever the case may be my weekends are free and my summer . It is then that I could provide overnight stays. Having a dog myself, I would not provide any services at my home, however, I would gladly come to your house, carefully come in, call your dog’s name and provide whatever services you would like. Those services would include a 15 minute visit or a 30 min visit In a 15 minute visit: *Let dog out/ short walk * Fresh water/ feeding *Lots of attention/ affection 20.00 30 min drop in * Walk/yard time *Feeding / water refresh * playtime/ companionship *Poop cleanup * photo text update- 30.00
“Myranda sat for my two cats and did a great job. My cats are shy but she was able to get pictures each day and one came out during her sit. She is very responsible and followed my instructions (probably too many!) to a T. It was a great comfort to me knowing she was taking care of them while we were away. I highly recommend her to anyone with cats or dogs. She’s a gem!!!”

About: Hello! I’m an experienced, highly reliable pet sitter dedicated to giving your furry family members the absolute best care. I have over 8 years of hands-on pet sitting experience and have loved and cared for dogs and cats of every size, from tiny Chihuahuas to giant breeds, and every age, puppies, kittens to seniors. I treat every pet like they were my own. Currently, I am studying part-time for my real estate license, which means my schedule is incredibly flexible. I have plenty of open windows during the day to dedicate entirely to walking, playing with, and feeding your pets. Because my studies keep me local, you can count on me to be punctual, communicative, and completely focused on your pets’ safety and happiness. When it comes to at home care safety and fun are key. I set all my pets up for success. I keep a close eye on them and stop potentially dangerous or destructive situations before they happen. That being said accidents do happen and I make sure to clean with care.
About: I have had a large, energetic yellow lab for 14 years and have taken care of various other dogs in different pet sitting jobs which have taught me how to deal with extremely hyper or unfriendly dogs and help calm them down. I recently moved home from DC after 5 years. In my job search, I am looking to petsit as I am an avid dog lover. I will be respectful of the owners home, make sure that I greet the pet and make them feel comfortable with me, and make sure that all of the pet's basic needs are met like going to the bathroom, giving them water, and giving them food.
“Thank you for loving our energetic dog while we were away!!! Lindsey was amazing and Bruno was so well taken care of. She sent lots of updates, pictures and videos! 🐶”
“Courtney did a great job caring for Archie, Ballet, and Cutie. She sent pictures of our kitties from her check-ins and gave us great notes! Courtney is also very responsive (prompt!)”
“Emma was wonderful!! Very responsive and accommodating, made sure I got updates during an extended trip away from the cats. It was obvious she cares about animals and the companionship she gave them provided peace of mind.”
“Alexis was a great sitter for our cat Atlas and our betta fish Simon, excellent communications throughout, provided great status pics, and was overall someone whom I would trust with all our pets. She will be on our regular sitter rotation going forward!”
About: I am a lover of all pets! Family, friends, and acquaintances all can see my passion and dedication to helping animals. I have been trusted to walk dogs, overnight sit dogs, and even take them to grooming appointments! No pet isn’t worthy of love and being taken care of <3 I currently am still in school. I’m able to walk pets on weekends and/or late afternoon if needed. I’m able to complete pop up opportunities, but only on weekends. I live in a home with a fenced in yard that is decently sized. I live with a toddler that loves all pets too but can be loud. I know how to build a crate and have the space for it in my home.
About: As of Oct.2025 now, I’ve cared for other people's pets for many years but recently learned about & joined this Rover App( as of February 2025). I love connecting with each pet’s unique personality—whether through play, cuddles, or quiet time. I’ve cared for cats and dogs, from energetic to mellow seniors. Before joining this App, I looked after many pets for friends and family. I will only choose one family a week but if you have a couple dogs and/or cats I will sit for all the fur babies if they get along when you're away. I keep my calendar up to date, so you’ll always know my availability. As a stay-at-home wife with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give your pets lots of attention and care. With my husband and young adult son both working full-time, I can fully dedicate my days to your fur babies. I stay busy throughout the day at home—not sitting at a desk or computer—but doing chores around the house. In the kitchen especially. I am hopeful your pet is trained to be comfortable relaxing on the sofa in a nearby room where he can still see me. If you’ll be away for more than a few days, I do prefer to board pets in my home for consistent care—unless I dont want your breed or certsin personality at my house. If you have multiple pets, (like 2 dog and 4 cats I can go to your house a few times a day. I’m happy to discuss sitting in your home. I have a soft spot for both dogs and cats and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet is shy, independent, young, or old, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I’m happy to take them for one or two walks a day, or simply keep an eye on them while they enjoy some fresh air in my backyard. I’ll chat sweetly with them—or just enjoy peaceful time together while they nap nearby. 🔔 Important Allergy & Fragrance Sensitivity Notice (just added) I love caring for pets and visiting homes, but lately I have sensitivity to synthetic fragrances. Products like scented dryer sheets, laundry beads, scented laundry detergents, plug-ins (even if unplugged), and Febreze sprays (even if you didnt use for a week) can cause shortness of breath, burning of my eyes, and just breathing irritation. Even if sprays haven’t been used the scent often lingers on furniture, carpets, and fabrics and can still trigger a reaction. Because of this, I kindly ask that scented products not be used before my visit it’s also better for your pets and family 🐶❤️. Unfortunately, our yard has a few gaps and softer fence areas where smaller , 10lbs pets could potentially slip through, so I prefer to keep them on a leash and supervise them while they’re in my backyard too. That outdoor time also counts as part of their walk and serves as a nice potty break. I always respect their boundaries and take time to learn what makes your pet feel at home. To help them settle in comfortably, please bring their crate ( must be trained), bed, blankets, and toys. Also, let me know if they need to be crated when we step out for church, grocery shopping, or dinner (more than 2-3hrs or whenever not home) If your pet has special food, treats, or even home-cooked meals you'd like me to prepare, feel free to bring whatever they’ll need. You would purchase their food I give. We don’t feed pets from our own plates. I’m more than happy to cook any pet-specific meals you provide.
About: I love animals, grew up with two dogs, and now have a rescue cat. I also volunteer at the AWA Adoption Center. I am available for dog walking and drop-in visits for any kind of pet. I am self-employed, so my schedule is flexible. I’m self-employed so my schedule is flexible. I have a car and am willing to travel. I generally feed my own cat twice a day and play with her whenever I have time. For visits in my clients home I follow your feeding directions as to your pet’s feeding schedule, type of food, preferred toys and preferred play.
“I can’t recommend Brielle enough! My dog is typically very nervous around new people, but Brielle did an amazing job making her feel comfortable. Not only did she take the time to get her out for a walk, feed her dinner and squeeze in extra play time, but she went above and beyond in caring for her. Brielle didn’t just come in, let her outside, and leave—she ensured that my dog was happy and at ease. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she provided. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

I can’t recommend Lindsey highly enough! She is reliable, incredibly kind, and truly goes above and beyond for my Ruby girl. Every walk is handled with care, and it shows—our dog is happier, calmer, and absolutely adores her and her sidekick Paco!! Communication is always clear and prompt, and the photos and updates after each walk give me total peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will treat your dog like family, this is the person to call!
Jenna helped watch our two dogs Murphy and Lulu while we were away for a week. We were so grateful they were in such good hands! They went on lots of walks and were well fed and had lots of playtime! Jenna gave us lots of updates and photos which our family loved since we missed them so much! When we got back we could see how happy and well cared for they both were! Jenna was caring and trustworthy and I know our pups would love to have her back!
Nicole is an absolute pleasure to care for my German Shepherd Dog. She’s prompt, thoughtful, very down to earth, and my 2 year old GSD absolutely loves her. Best of all, she handles him extremely well and with care! Couldn’t be happier to have Nicole drop in and care for my (very energetic) Shepherd.

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 Runnemede 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 Runnemede 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 Runnemede 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 Runnemede. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
