About: I grew up on a small farm, so I’m no stranger to the hard work and love that goes in to animal care.I’m an all around animal person and had 4 dogs growing up I’m upbeat and active. I have a busy full time job, with a set schedule that makes caring for dogs easy. I have also worked for a doggy daycare. I have reliable transportation and am very motivated. I have been trusted many times with friends and acquaintances pets. I have house sat for weeks, and made drop in visits for many families. I have no dogs of my own at the moment, so getting to spend time with them whenever I can is great. :) I am willing to take your dog in the car or to appts if needed. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for your pets when needed. I am available quite a few days/time throughout the week. We have cats and I ADORE them. I make sure they are well groomed, fed on a schedule and feel loved. I give them the space when needed, but an always available for pets and snuggles.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover based in Schuylkill Haven. I work full-time during the day, so I specialize in evening and weekend pet care. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets with someone, and I treat every pet like my own. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m calm, dependable, and great with routines—perfect for pets who like consistency. Whether your dog needs a walk after dinner or your cat needs a check-in while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I’m available most evenings after 5 PM and flexible on weekends. I’d love to meet you and your pet! I work full time during the day and can take care of your pets for drop ins and walks in the evening hours and most weekends! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every visit. For walks, I always stay aware of our surroundings, and avoid unsafe situations like heavy traffic or unfamiliar dogs. During drop-in visits or sitting, I make sure pets are fed properly, have fresh water, and feel comfortable in their environment. I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and to treat your pet with the same care I would my own.

Emili was wonderfully patient with our cat, who did not dare show his face to her. Despite our cat's shyness, Emili made sure that he was well fed and taken care of. We're so grateful to her and thanks to her care we came home to a cat who missed us quite a bit. Thank you so much for taking care of our boy, Emili! :)

About: My name is Renee and I am a very experienced animal care giver. I am a lifelong volunteer at an environment education and wildlife rehabilitation center. From furry to scaly to feathery I have loved them all. I would regularly puppy sit my grand dogs but, unfortunately, they have all moved far away. I have a great deal of love to give unconditionally. Your home will be cared for as well. I “move in”. I keep your pets routine and I am respectful to your home. You will find your home clean and tidy and ready for your return. I keep plants watered, mail collected and messages taken. Your pet deserves all my attention. I consider sitting as priority and will give your pet all the love you would. This is not only your vacation but their time for some R&R. I am very undisciplined within reason, kind of like a visiting grandma. We will play, run, swim (if allowed) and cuddle. Always kindness and understanding, even if mistakes happen, and I am sure they will.

About: I've grown up with multiple dogs at a time, never had a period of time where I was not around dogs. I've raised them from birth to passing away. I love playing with them, caring for them, being there for them and providing love to them. I love going for walks in the parks, around development, etc. Whatever the pup/dog likes to do is fine with me, I have a lot of history with them so I'd be more than happy to provide for any dog! I do have a lot of references just not on rover, they can be provided upon speaking/meeting! I am very accommodating and can stick to your pets schedule as close as possible to yours! I can work my schedule around whatever is needed for care. For example, pets needing strict medicine schedule. I do work during the day but am available with notice! I can provide drop in visits, pet taxi to groomers or vets, dog parks, etc. Cages would need to be provided especially for multiple pets while I am out of the home. Pets have full range of the home. We have gates for the stairs at top and bottom!

About: I've been around animals since I was a little girl. From Goats, to chickens, to dogs, to cats, to fish! I'm a board member for a rescue. I do work full time (8 hours) only on the week days. Typical I get to work around 630AM, and leave around 3PM. So, I would let your animals out in the morning before I leave, feed them and make sure they have water. Then I would come after work and let them out, and if its not a hot or rainy day, hang outside and play for a little bit and then go inside feed them. Check their water as well. I do have a few clients that I do leave work early (hour early) for so that is also something I am able to do! **I DO NOT DO IN HOME PET SITTING** I make sure their areas are cleaned DAILY! I don't like to live in a messy area or sleep in a messy area so neither should they. -Food/water check daily. -Play time everyday if not rainy or too hot

About: I’ve taken care of cats and small dogs since as long as I can remember. Whether it was family or friends. I'm really good at taking care of cats and small dogs because I have a lot of patience and love for animals. I make sure they are fed on time, groomed regularly, and given plenty of attention and playtime. I also pay close attention to their health and well-being, noticing any changes in their behavior or appearance. My gentle and caring nature helps them feel safe and comfortable, making me a great caregiver for my new furry friends. I am at home full time so I have all the time to give your pets the attention and love they need anytime throughout the day! I have a fenced in yard. A 3 story house that has tons of room for your fur babies to run around. I have tons cats toys, scratching posts and boards, and towers for the kitties!

Megan is amazing. I set her up to care for my mom’s dogs after she had surgery for a broken ankle and was non-weight bearing. Megan was available last second, went to the house 4 times a day like clockwork, and took such wonderful, loving care of Louis and Brie. And was so very sweet to my mom. I had such peace of mind knowing that the dogs were cared for and safe and my mom could rest and start to heal without worry for them. If you are in need of pet sitting services in her area, PLEASE contact Megan. She’s a godsend and will not disappoint. I would hire her again in a second, and as I’m a veterinarian, I’m very picky with my family’s animals and know what great care looks like. Thank you so much, Megan!!

About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.

Lindsey did a great job with taking care of our cat! From the first contact to the end of our vacation, we felt very secure and comfortable with having Lindsey watch our adult cat. Our cat means the world to us and Lindsey was able to provide that level of care and security for us while we were away. Lindsey made sure to keep us updated on everything and how our cat was doing. I definitely recommend booking with Lindsey as a sitter for your pets. We will 100% be sure to book with her again! :)

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Schuylkill Haven

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Schuylkill Haven on Rover is $17.76 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 1,053 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Schuylkill Haven. 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 Schuylkill Haven 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 Schuylkill Haven. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
