About: Hi, my name is Lauren, and I have been caring for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I was surrounded by many different types of animals, but dogs have always held a special place in my heart. As a devoted pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members. I have experience working with pets that require special care, including diabetic animals and those who need medications administered. I am also comfortable with bathing and providing basic grooming support. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I believe that happy pets are active and engaged, so I focus on providing plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and enrichment through walks, playtime, and activities that meet their individual needs. Whether your pet loves adventure or prefers a slower pace, I tailor my care to their personality and routine. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, compassion, and attention to detail. I look forward to meeting you and providing the best possible care for your beloved pets! 🐾💜 I currently work full-time in a school and am available for pet care services during evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I am happy to help. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, attention, and exercise, so I strive to make every visit a positive experience. You can count on me to provide reliable, compassionate care and treat your pets like family while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companions! 🐾💜 At this time, I am unable to offer pet care services in my home due to my reactive dog. However, I am more than happy to come to your home and provide the care your pet needs in the comfort of their familiar environment. Whether your furry family member needs walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medication administration, playtime, or companionship, I am committed to providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away, treating them with the same love and attention I give my own pets. 🐾💜
About: Hello, I’d love to help you with your pet needs and give your pets lots of love, potty breaks, exercise and make sure they are cared for, happy and safe when you are not home. I love animals! I’ve had dogs my whole life. I grew up with Chihuahua’s. Our family had several over the years. Then I had a Cockapoo who lived to 16 yrs old, he was sick, but we cared for him and he still lived a long wonderful life! I currently have a 6 year-old chocolate lab named Maggie. She’s super energetic and brings a special love to our home. We also have a new member to our family, a cat named Suma…she’s beautiful and very playful! I'd describe my personality as kind, caring, organized, and helpful. I’m currently available for early morning, drop-in visits, also quick 30 minute lunch break visits and/or anytime after 5pm to care for your pets! I provide reliable, attentive care by following each pet’s routine and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for in their own home.
About: What sets me apart is my diverse experience with dogs, cats, birds, and goats. Growing up on a homestead, I developed a deep love for animals. I’ve administered medications, worked in a petting zoo teaching safe animal interactions, and truly enjoy making pets feel loved and supported while their owners are away. As someone who works locally at a church from 8:30 to 5 and lives just down the road, I have plenty of time in the mornings to care for your pets. Being single, my evenings are wide open, and I always come home for lunch. Most of my evenings are spent at home, so your pets will never feel lonely if they stay with me while you’re away. I’m here to provide the care and attention they deserve! I provide loving, personalized care for pets, whether at my home or yours. From following routines to offering playtime and companionship, I ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and well-loved while you’re away.

I’m off Sunday-Tuesday so perfect for drop in visits, walkings, and house sitting. I always write down rules that you may provide or have. I love doing a “meet and greet prior to the booking so your pet is familiar with me before we spend time together.

“We had reached out to Kirstin last minute and she could not have been nicer or more accommodating plus she was great with our silly boy, Mosley. She sent us updates and pictures each time she dropped in for a visit. Her communication regarding Mo was just what we needed to feel comfortable, that he was being well taken care of while we were away. Additionally, Kirstin was quick to respond to all of our messages (before, during and after our trip). We highly recommend Kirstins’ pet sitting services and look forward to booking with her again in the near future! Thanks Kirstin!🐾”
“Brittany was amazing! Basqui was in great hands and I can tell she enjoyed her company when I returned. She had great communication, was punctual and shared pictures throughout her time with Basqui. I would highly recommend Brittany.”
“I could never say enough about Delaney’s sense of responsibility, care for Bailey and Dabby, and her great pet sitting work ethic. Jen and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!”
About: I used to have a Shih-tzu named Eris who was a very sweet girl with lots of energy. I currently look after a French Bulldog from time to time who I absolutely love. I like working with small dogs/lap dogs but I can work with bigger dogs too. I work from home, and I have plenty of time to play with your dog or take them on walks. I spend most of my day ar my desk, and I would welcome the extra encouragement to go outside and take the dog for a walk. I live with two other family members who love dogs, so your dog will never go without attention. If your dog is small, then I will happily let them sit on my bed while I work, and I'll reach over to give them pets whenever they want. Larger dogs are welcome to lie in a dog bed by my desk, or downstairs on the couch with me.

All other days I’m completely available. I could always stop in before and after work. I prefer to watch in your home, I have 3 dogs, our Toy Australian Shepherd, has had to have surgery on 3 legs, so I rather keep him calm and not bring too much excitement to our home.
About: Hi I’m isabelle! I’ve had 2 cats my entire life so I’ve never known a life without pets! I also have a dog, and a hamster as well.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Skippack 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 Skippack 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 Skippack with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
