“Phoebe house/dog sat for us. She took excellent care of Rocket and sent lots of pictures. She paid attention to all of our instructors and set our minds at ease that all was going well. Phoebe is a true animal lover and I won't hesitate to request her services again”

“Gabrielle did a great job with Maggie! Gabrielle is very responsive and easy to work with. Maggie got lots of exercise and I got lots of pictures. I would definitely use Gabrielle again!”

“Ilene stayed at our house with our three small dogs while we were away for a week and she took the best care of them! She sent updates and photos any time she could, and she made sure to follow the extra instructions I had for miscellaneous things around the house. The dogs really seemed to enjoy her and I would rebook her anytime!”

“Our pups and kitties loved Ashley! They all seemed so relaxed when we came home from our trip. We will definitely be reaching out to her again the next time we need to go away. Thanks so much Ashley!!”

“Sheila was great! I’ve never used Rover before and never left our pets with someone other than family. Sheila came for a meet and greet before we finalized the booking (I was afraid our wild pups might scare her off) and all my anxiety was instantly relieved. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. She had great questions and explained her usual process, making it very obvious that she has plenty of experience. I didn’t have any worries about leaving our pets and home in her care. Sheila sent updates and pics during the week and everything was in perfect condition when we got home. I can’t imagine anything that would have made the experience any better! Thank you Sheila!”

“Justina has housesat for us twice now (once for about two weeks and once for a weekend) and watched my two pups and cat. She’s done an awesome job, kept us informed, sent pictures, and left the house very clean. We’ll be using her again anytime we travel!!”

“Kailey did an excellent job taking care of my dog. She sent me frequent updates on his day, and kept him on his regular schedule. I’m very thankful for a job well done!!”

“We couldn't be happier with the way Eren and Luca cared for our two young cats while we were away! They gave them so much love and attention, and were very patient with our skittish kitty, monitoring him carefully to make sure he was getting enough food when he was too anxious to eat at regular mealtimes. They were great about checking in and sent us lots of video and photo updates, making it easy for us to relax during our trip in the confidence that our cats were being well taken care of. They followed our instructions carefully and left our house just as they found it. We highly recommend them!”

“David R. Is by far the finest Dog Sitter I have encountered in my 30+ years as a pet owner. David cared for my two French bulldogs, Alma and Jessup, for five nights while I attended a conference. David sent comprehensive daily updates along with adorable pictures of my pups. He promptly responded to any questions and all inquiries! I would recommend David to anyone looking to pamper their pets!”

“We had an unexpected need for a dog sitter, and Rob stepped in without hesitation. From the moment we met him, he was incredibly receptive, knowledgeable, and immediately got along with our dogs. Managing five dogs is no small task, and Rob handled everything flawlessly. Despite the last-minute request, he was more than willing to help with little to no questions asked, which truly put our minds at ease during a stressful situation. Knowing Rob was at our home allowed us to focus on what we needed to without worrying about our dogs. He was communicative throughout the stay, sending updates and photos without us even needing to ask. When we returned home, everything was exactly as we had hoped—our house was spotless, and our dogs were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. We absolutely plan to use Rob again in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with both their pets and their home.”

“We can’t recommend Alexandria enough! Her first time sitting for us involved rain/snow and she was flexible with everything that comes with dogs and weather! She was very communicative and took great care of our dogs. Was a huge relief to know they were well taken care of and happy with her! We will defiantly book with Alexandria again!”

About: I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m your pet’s new best friend. What sets me apart is my genuine love for being around dogs and my natural ability to comfort and connect with them. Whether it’s a long walk through the park, a splash in the water, or simply sitting together for quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I believe exercise, play, and affection go hand-in-paw, and I bring all three to every visit. Your furry family member will get my full attention, plenty of tail-wagging adventures, and the kind of care I’d want for my own pets. I offer temporary pet sitting and dog walking in the area while I’m in town, as my work and love for travel take me around the world. When I’m here, I’m fully dedicated to caring for your pets—providing companionship, exercise, and comfort until you’re back. My schedule is flexible during my local stays, so whether you need daily walks, weekend care, or short-term pet sitting, I’m happy to help. When I care for your pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect and attention as if it were my own. I know how important it is to feel confident when someone else is looking after your furry family members—and your home—so I’m committed to providing a safe, trustworthy, and dependable presence. From securely locking doors to following your pets’ routines exactly as you request, I make sure every detail is handled with care. Your pets will receive plenty of love, comfort, and attention, and you can rest easy knowing they’re safe, happy, and right where they feel most at home.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I have experience caring for pets with different routines and personalities, and I know how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a slower, cozy day, I’m happy to match their energy and routine. I’m dependable, patient, and will always care for your pets like they’re my own — plus you can expect plenty of photo updates along the way! I’m currently full time as a radiologic technologist with St. Luke’s. I normally work Tuesdays & Wednesdays 8-4p, Mondays & Thursdays 8-8p. If a Thursday or Monday is needed I could rearrange my schedule to accommodate if needed. Fridays I’m off and I’m available Saturday’s and Sundays when given enough notice. ☺️ When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely while making sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I understand that pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, so I work to create a calm, safe, and positive experience while you’re away. I also make sure your home is treated respectfully and kept clean and secure. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life! I have several years shelter experience, and during that time I worked hand-in-hand with veterinarians and dog trainers.

On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I’m available after 3:30pm as well! Saturdays I am typically unavailable without notice. I love to care for pets, and am flexible to meet each one’s needs! Walks, play-time, enrichment, and lots of attention! I will make sure to adhere to whatever schedule your pup (or kitty) needs!
About: I am 24 years old and am looking for extra work this summer. I love animals and I have had dogs my entire life ranging in sizes. I’ve had pugs and a shih tzu as well as a black lab and a cane corso. I also have had several cats so I’m equipped and comfortable with them as well. I have multiple different handling experiences with different dogs with different temperaments. I have also taken multiple handling and training classes with a dog trainer. I prefer the smaller dogs but love them all and would give your pets the best experience. I love dogs and cats and am excited to get to know you and any of your pets. I am currently in the process of job hunting, so currently I have full open availability! I will update my availability if anything does change! While I do not do pet sitting in my house, I can assure that I will treat yours with the same respect I treat mine.
About: I have taken care of several animals, and I thoroughly enjoy it! I am very active and find walking or running a hobby with dogs. We would absolutely love to welcome your pup into our home! I currently work full time and get off at 4:30 but have plenty of free time on the weekends, afternoon walks during the weekdays after work! I like to modify my care routine depending on each pet and their needs. In my home I like to provide treats, and toys, with unconditional love. I have a schedule for routine feeding.

FAQs for House Sitting - Slatington
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 810 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Slatington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Slatington walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Slatington maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Slatington 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
