About: I have taken care of dogs since high school. I graduated college in 2023 with a degree in Health Sciences. I am currently working as an aide at a physical therapy clinic, and looking to make extra money. I love pet sitting and caring for animals is one of my strong suits. I am always willing to accommodate you and your dogs needs and I will always care for them like they are my own! I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am a home body, so I am always at home and also have my mom and grandmom in the home to help if need be. In a clients home, I will leave it completely up to you, how I walk, feed, crate, etc. your dog. But I will always care for your dog as if they were my own! For pet sitting at my home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I usually walk the dogs on leashes around my yard or take them to the park by my house to walk them. I can crate them anywhere in the home if needed. I also have plenty of dog toys/crates/ dog accessories from my own dog.
“Thank you, Autumn, for taking wonderful care of Ashley, our tabby. We so appreciate your attentiveness to her and your willingness to pick up the mail and water plants. Ashley is super relaxed and happy and our plants thriving in spite of the heat. Looking forward to asking you to watch her in the future!”
“Excellent care and very professional. Sofia was wonderful, our very timid cat even came out for her on the first visit. She is excellent at administering injections. Will use again.”
About: I’ve taken care of puppies, senior dogs and cats. Given medications when required. Long dog walks, trips to dog parks, belly rubs, games, pup cups, a fenced in yard with sprinklers and a puppy pool during hot weather. I use the WoofTrax app to document walks send photos to owners. The cats get play time and cuddles and ear scratches to make them purring. I have taken care of my own pets as well as pets from friends and family. I am currently semi-retired and working from home. I love taking care of pets and provide a warm, friendly environment. I have a fenced in yard, my dog loves playing with other animals. I can go to your home if you prefer and I’ll bring the toys and treats to keep your pet happy.
About: I've always loved animals and felt drawn to them! I've been around animals my entire life, I grew up with cats and dogs (over the years I've had 7 cats and 3 dogs!) and been around other people's pets. Throughout high school I pet sat for friends and family and loved it. I'm not amazing at training but I've picked up a little bit of knowledge from watching my sister train my dog over the years. I am a full-time college student at Ursinus College (where I also work part-time as a tutor). I am free on weekends and weekdays after 2pm besides Thursday (available after 5:30pm). I have experience with many different types of pets and am more than willing to accommodate to whatever works best for them and you! Whether that is talking them on walks, playing with them, petting them, or just being there keeping them company.
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: 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. I have most experience with cats/dogs, but I really love just about any pet there is out there. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, so I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether your pet wants playtime, cuddles, or a calm presence, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I’m currently working part time and looking for pet care opportunities to fill my free time ! I’m Available most evenings but my schedule changes around frequently. I will cater to the needs of your animals. I own two cats of my own and they each have their specific ways of care.
About: As the proud cat mom of a 3-year-old tabby boy, I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your cat. My cat means the world to me, and I bring that same care and attention to the cats I look after. I’m genuinely a cat lover. I love their little quirks, big personalities, and the way a purring cat can turn an ordinary afternoon into the best part of your day. I have experience with both long-term house sitting and drop-in care. Along with meals, fresh water, and a clean litter box, I make time for play, company, and cuddles whenever permission is granted. I’m gentle and patient, and I respect each cat’s boundaries—whether they’re ready to climb into my lap or would prefer to inspect me from a safe distance. I’ll follow your care instructions and keep you updated with photos and little notes from our visits. As a fellow cat parent, I know how reassuring it is to see your cat comfortable, happy, and getting plenty of love while you’re away. I'm currently working part-time remotely, therefore my schedules are very flexible and I have plenty of free time to really focus on your pet, whether that means active playtime, dedicated cleaning, or just keeping them company so they aren't lonely. For drop-in visits and walks, I’m available throughout the day and prefer to wrap up my schedule by 6:00 PM Monday through Saturday. However, if I’m house sitting for you, I’ll be there all evening and overnight to make sure your fur baby feels safe and settled in. When caring for your cat in your home, I follow your instructions closely to keep their routine familiar—from meal times and fresh water to a clean litter box and their favorite ways to play. I make time for company and cuddles, while respecting their boundaries and letting them come to me when they’re ready. I pay attention to their appetite, litter box habits, and behavior, and let you know if anything seems unusual. I’m careful with doors, follow your household instructions, and leave feeding and litter areas tidy. You’ll receive photos and updates after each visit, so you can feel connected to your cat while you’re away.
About: I got my first dog at 8 years old and I have been in love ever since. I've worked hands on with animals while employed at the Montgomery county SPCA as well as a dog boarding/daycare facility. I have my own spoiled dog and cat, so I'm very empathetic when it comes to the people you let around your fur babies. I currently work at an elementary school as my full time job, but on the side I love caring for others pets. I'm a full time working mom to a 10 year old boy. On weekdays I work from around 830am until 4pm at a local elementary school. Pet care and dog walking is little job on the side that I absolutely love doing. When visiting your home, I will gladly follow all instructions and respect the residence and animals as if they were my own. I understand what it means to put trust in others with your animals.
About: I have 3 dogs of my own who are treated like royalty. I watch my neighbors pets, dogs, cats, bearded dragon, when they are out of town.

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: Hello! I am a 25 year old animal caretaker! I have experience working with many cat and dog breeds. I specialize in high energy dogs! My family and I have been fostering for a non profit organization since 2015. With fosters the ages of 6 weeks to 14 years old. I have always been an animal lover. For fun my mom and I would go to our local animal shelters to hangout with the beautiful souls! I previously worked for an animal hospital as a kennel attendant I had the best time caring and playing with each visitor we had. I have experience offering check in visits and walking dogs in any weather (snow, rain, cold, hot). Thank you for your time and I hope to have the opportunity to get to know you and your fur babies! I’m available for walks Monday- Friday! As early as 7:30 am to 6 pm. Pet services are scheduled within a designated time window. For example, a 30-minute walk can be booked within the 11 AM–12 PM window, allowing me flexibility to arrive at any point during that hour. Even if you have a fenced in yard I will be outside keeping an eye on your pet. If you do not have a fenced in yard I can take your dog on walks to give them time to use the bathroom. If your pet needs to be crated I will be sure to give them a treat or a toy to have with them.
“Brynn was caring, capable, and compassionate in taking care of my pup, Bailey, and also in looking after my black kitty girl, Dabby. This was my first time hiring her, which proved to be the perfect move! Thank you, Brynn, for all of your help!”
About: A lifelong dog lover with over nine years of personal experience raising my own pup and five years of dedicated dog‑sitting for friends and families. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs, always making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I’m currently available throughout the entire week, including weekends, and can accommodate a wide range of schedules. Early‑morning drop‑offs work perfectly for me, and I’m happy to provide flexible timing to make your routine as smooth and stress‑free as possible. I have a huge fenced in yard and have easy access to private trails by the home and the have no other pets at home.
About: I have always cared for animals my whole life. My family loves dogs especially. We have two huskies that we absolutely adore and two smaller ones. I help my family prepare meals and I take each dog on walks about 2-3 times a week. When medication is needed I also help with that as well. My weekly schedule is pretty open and flexible. For my clients, I’ll make sure that their animals are well cared for the whole time and lots of attention is given:) As of now, I am very flexible and open with my schedule. I prefer to do walks anytime during the week from 9 AM to 8 PM, and am open to certain requests on the weekends, depending on the service/time. At my family home, we have a completely fenced in yard. As someone who has dogs that get very excited and territorial with other dogs, I feel that I have the necessary experience to withhold trust with my clients to ensure that their pets stay safe and sound.
“Amanda was amazing with our 2 pups. Both my dogs were so calm and took right to Amanda. Amanda sent pictures with every visit and communication was spot on. We needed someone at last minute and Amanda was very accommodating. Will definitely be using her services in the near future.”

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Skippack is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $34 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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.
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 Skippack. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
