“Stephanie took care of our 20 year old cat while we were away. She was very communicative the entire time and took great care of our cat! She gave us piece of mind while away. We will definitely be booking with Stephanie in the future!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my pet for a few days knowing that Heather would be checking in on him. She shared a daily update and prior to our trip she stopped in to meet our pet and make sure she knew exactly how to best take care of him.”
About: I have been dogsitting since I was about 14 years old for my neighbors, and in adulthood have become the go-to dogsitter for many of my friends. While I am not at a point in my life to have a dog of my own, I absolutely love them and have experience caring for my family dog, which is why people trust me with their babies. This started as an opportunity to get some much-needed dog time, but I have turned it into a side hustle as well! I am currently in between jobs so my schedule can be very flexible including morning, day, and night time hours. I am originally from Hatboro, PA and will be moving back there from Chicago in July. I am available beginning July 14th. I will take care of your dog or cat as if they are my own. The main reason I began pet sitting is because I love them so much, but I’m not in at a point in my life to take on having one on my own. I have extensive experience with walking and in-house sitting dating back 15 years.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs since I was 12, as well as my neighbors dogs for the last 7 years. From pit bulls to golden retrievers, I love spending time with dogs of all breeds. Whether it be going on walks, playing fetch, or giving them love and attention, I’ll make sure your dog is safe and well cared for. I am available Monday-Thursday after 4 pm and have a very flexible and open schedule Friday-Sunday. I am incredibly reliable and my only obligation is my internship that runs from 7-3 Monday-Thursday. I have experience with crate training and walking all kinds of dog breeds. I have a crazy lab and plothoud mix at home so I am comfortable handling energetic dogs.
About: I have helped out family and friends with their pet care needs when they need it. I enjoy walking and having the company of a dog makes it more enjoyable. I’m currently working part time in the mornings so I’m available after that to walk, pop in, feed, cuddle, clean cat litter or whatever is needed. I have a fenced in yard and a dog if my own. I also have crates available if needed. I know how important it is to have your fur baby loved.
About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, even when their family is away. Whether it’s a relaxing walk, an energetic adventure, or a drop-in visit filled with playtime, belly rubs, meals, potty breaks, or quiet companionship, every visit is tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Building trust with both pets and their families is my top priority. I take the time to make sure every dog and cat feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while keeping owners updated with plenty of photos and messages along the way. I have occasional time off, which I will be available to walk your dog or feed your dogs/cats and provide them with quality care. I have my own pets and love animals, so they will be in good hands. I will go to homes to feed or walk pets.
“Tracy was awesome. She was great with my older dog Tilghman. She followed Tilghman’s lead on her visits playing with him or just ear scratches and quiet time. I appreciated her kindness and reliability.”
“Jeffrey took great care with our three cats and communicated with us every day, sending us notes and photos. He is a pleasure to work with and gave us such peace of mind knowing all was well at home. This is our second time working with Jeffrey and he will continue to be our first choice whenever he is available.”
About: I knew I had a passion for dog-care ever since I was 12 and I would beg my neighbors to let me walk their dogs every week for free. Since then, I have been of service to any of my friends/family with a dog, and I am the first person my own tennis coach goes to when he is out of town and needs his dogs watched, walked, cleaned, fed etc! Its something I find true happiness and enjoyment in every chance i get I am planning on getting a part-time job soon and working a few days a week, so I dont have my full schedule yet. As of right now I am available whenever! I live in a closed off neighborhood with no main roads around, and my house is big enough for any dog to run around, feel safe, and play in!
About: I grew up with cats and still have cats. I had a dog when I got older and have experience with both animals. I am trustworthy and reliable. I am off from my job during the summer so I will have plenty of time to look after and play your pups and kitties. I have a cat that uses the litter that I scoop very often. When I did have a dog either he was walked or was let into the yard. I play with cat and when I had a dog I played with the dogs and spent time with them.
“Reina watched our dog and cat for 8 days. She showed up on time and never missed a check in with our animals. They were very happy with Reina and comfortable around her. We would definitely book Reina again!”

I am pretty easy going and fun - I love dogs - DM if you want more info. In terms of walking I love walking dogs and take them on excursions and adventures in parks and nature centers, dog shoppes and so much more.

About: I have grown up taking care of dogs ever since I was born! I am experienced caring for multiple breeds such as energetic boxers, gentle giants, and playful laborers! I am a college student who has plenty of time during the summer to care for your pups! I also have transportation to get to your home! I love to be active, so your fur babies and I will enjoy long walks together, playing fetch in the backyard, or some quality time on the couch together!
“Megan was extremely helpful taking care of our three cats while on a recent vacation. She made sure to check in and share photos of the cats while we were away. Definitely recommended for your pet sitting needs.”
About: I will make sure your dog gets the love and care they deserve. I've been taking care of dogs and cats for years, including the ones I have at home. I am very good with animals, it comes naturally. I have always been an animal lover and being around animals just brightens my day! I have 1 dog and 4 cats. They are my life. I cat sit and dog sit for a living. I will take your dog on long walks to get their doggy energy out. I will give them belly rubs and play with them all day long. I'm also very good with cats if you need a cat sitter. I'm available everyday throughout the week and I hope you choose me to take care of your fur baby!
About: I love all dogs and want them to love me back! I volunteered at Blue Chip Animal Farm in Dallas several times walking and letting out dogs of all sizes! My husband and I have a 7 year old dog, Spock, and 5 year old dachshund-mix named Dobby. They are both great with other dogs. I currently work full time but am available on weekends as well as at nights for walks. I am also available for boarding as needed! I have a fenced in yard and will take dogs on walks as many times as possible. We typically let the dogs play throughout the day and depending on their sleep routine, will either have them sleep with us in our room or in the crate!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was very little as I always had a special bond with dogs. I went to a tech school for veterinary science where we were trained in many things, one of which being nail trimming. I can also assist in training puppies, but I am not a professional trainer. I am currently in college with a part time job. I can stay over the weekend if needed or a couple days during the week. I can walk your dog in the afternoon or evening depending on what works with your schedule. I only have classes 2 days a week where I would be able to let your dog out between my classes if that is what was needed. My schedule is very flexible! I do not do boarding in my home, but your pet will have the comfort of remaining in their safe place at home. I will give updates on how your pet is doing whenever you want them or if you just want to check up on them.

We could not be happier with Suki! She took care of our dog for one week when we were gone. Suki was an excellent communicator at every visit, and played with our dog endlessly! When delayed flights changed our timing a little, Suki was flexible and accommodating, which was so helpful to us. We will definitely book with Suki again!
Rebecca was an amazing sitter for our yorkiepoo puppy, she is very responsive and always sends lots of pictures along with summary/feedback of the drop in. She is very caring, accommodating, flexible and very pleasant to work with, very positive experience. Our puppy Z was so happy and loved her company. Rebecca went above and beyond and helped with lot of things for Z while we were away.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Southampton 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 Southampton 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 .

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 Southampton 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.

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.
