“Fantastic job as always! I’ve booked Agnes to watch my cat twice while I was on vacation and she does an excellent job. When I come home my cat is always happy and healthy.”


About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have always had a passion for caring for animals. I currently have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I also help care for my elderly dog with special needs, giving me experience with senior pets who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m currently a student who is mostly remote. I have a very open summer schedule thanks to my summer break. I’m available weekdays and weekends. Or message me if you are in a pinch and I can try and accommodate you! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, so I’ll follow your instructions closely to help them feel relaxed and at home. Whether that includes daily walks, feeding on a specific schedule, administering medications, bathing, playtime, or simply spending quality time together, I’ll make sure they receive the attentive care they deserve.
“Gretchen - Thank you! 🙏🏾 You were a lifesaver this weekend while I was away. The constant updates absolutely kept me comfortable and content knowing my baby was in good hands! Can’t explain how much it meant to me that you were willing and everything went so smoothly! 10/10 Higjly recommend booking Gretchen. Professional, Communicative, Respectful of Care Instructions and home! Will be reaching out again! 🫶🏾”

“Casey was wonderful with our two dogs! She was not just helpful but also extremely caring and respectful. Our older dachshund requires a bit more attention and Casey was so patient with him. She sent us timely updates and lots of photos during her visits and we could tell how comfortable they both were with her. She was great to communicate with and really put our minds at ease while being away from our dogs. We cannot recommend Casey enough and would love to have her come see the boys again soon!”

“Deanna continues to be my go-to cat sitter for multiple trips out of town. She is communicative, dependable, and trustworthy, and always does an amazing job caring for my cat while letting me know all is well! Thanks for another great experience, Deanna!”

About: If your pet could choose their sitter, I’m hoping they’d pick the person who is already excited to meet them! I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, and I’ve always had a soft spot for the furry members of the family. I haven’t been able to have pets of my own for a while, so I’ve happily adopted my friends’ cats and dogs instead—affectionately calling them my **“furry nieces and nephews.”** I’m the person who wants to hear all about their personality, remembers their favorite treats, and is perfectly happy spending an unreasonable amount of time giving them attention. Last year, I took that love a step further and volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I spent my time walking and caring for dogs. I absolutely loved it and realized that getting to know different animals—and figuring out what makes each one comfortable and happy—is something I genuinely enjoy. What I think sets me apart is that I don’t see pet sitting as simply stopping by to feed a pet and check a box. **I want your pet to actually have a good time while you’re away.** Whether that means a long sniff-filled walk, an energetic game of fetch, a cozy afternoon of cuddles, or simply sitting nearby for a nervous pet who needs some company, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Every animal has their own personality, quirks, routines, and preferences, and I love getting to know them. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and completely spoiled—and for you to feel confident knowing they’re in good hands. I’m looking for a flexible way to spend more time doing something I genuinely love, and I’d be thrilled to add your pets to my ever-growing list of furry nieces and nephews. ❤️🐶🐱 One of the best things about my schedule is that I work two part-time jobs, and both are very flexible. This allows me to build pet care into my day and offer visits at different times rather than being tied to a traditional 9–5 schedule. I’m available for morning and evening visits during the week, with even more flexibility on the weekends. I can also make multiple visits throughout the day when your pet needs a little extra attention. My typical availability looks like: Mondays & Wednesdays: I have the most flexibility and can usually stop by up to three times throughout the day. Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays: These days are a little busier, but I can still provide a morning visit and an evening visit after 4 PM. Weekends: I have more flexibility and can make multiple visits throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs and location. I know every pet has a different routine, and I’m happy to work with you to create a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat needs a quick morning check-in, some evening playtime, or multiple visits throughout the day, I have the flexibility to make it work. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for a pet in their home, I treat their space and routine with the same respect I would want for my own home and animals. I take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, litter box or potty routines, favorite toys, hiding spots, and any quirks or behaviors I should know about. I know that cats especially can be sensitive to changes, so I try to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I’m also very mindful of home security. I make sure doors are securely closed, follow any instructions regarding alarms or entry, and am careful with windows, doors, and anything else your pet might get into. I’ll never leave a pet in an unsafe situation or do anything outside of the care instructions you’ve provided. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable knowing that someone trustworthy is looking after your pet and your home. I’m happy to send updates, photos, and little check-ins so you can see how your furry family member is doing while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I can remember. This includes all types, small, big, young, old. I provide good care for all the dogs I take care of, including giving medicine, listening to their training requirements, and giving them extra love and attention! I currently work at a Doggie Daycare and am college full time. However whenever I’m not doing either I would love to help take care of your pets! I don’t have any pets at home, however I have found that dogs are more comfortable in their own home and more at ease with all the dogs I have watched. So coming to their homes is always preferable to ensure their wellbeing
“Karen did a great job with our elderly cat Malibu for the week we were gone. She made sure to give her lots of pets and love and made her feel special. We would definitely rebook!”

“Margaret took extended care of my fur-babies while I was away. She made me feel at ease leaving them in her capable hands. Margaret loves your animal like you do and does a terrific job!”

“Autumn did a great job! She gave attention to all 5 cats, fed them and played with them. One cat needed a pill and the other an insulin injection. She did great and we would have her sit for us again!”

“She made three visits a day to our house for our dog and cat. They loved her, and she did everything perfectly including giving our dog plenty of walks and giving her her medicine. We will definitely be asking her to come watch our pets again in the future!”

About: I have had a dog since I was a kid. When I got married , we adopted our first dog Sonny from a rescue. Shortly after that we took one of the puppies from my sister in laws litter, Bandit. They both brought such love and happiness into our family and were devastated when we lost them both. Looking for a job where I could give my love to other’s animals. I currently am unemployed, but looking to be a full time dog sitter/ dog walker. I am a stay at home mom, hoping to bring some extra income to my household. My typical day starts at 7:30 with school drop off for my son and drop off at 8:40 for my daughter. With pick ups between 2-3:30. Once school ends my hours become more available.

About: I have owned and loved dogs all my life, and currently having 2 fur babies of my own, I absolutely love seeing a wagging tail and receiving wet slobbery kisses! I have had the privilege to tend to all ages of dogs from young dogs that were so full of energy that no one could keep up with to very old dogs that need all the love they provided throughout their years. I do everything to insure that your pet is well cared for; that they are loved, and that it feels they never left home! I have plenty of time to tend and play with your pups! I am available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 6:00 pm but can accommodate to your needs with enough heads up I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! I can easily crate your dog if needed or would have multiple rooms available if separation is needed. Taking care of your dog in your home, the rule of "your house, your rules" applies!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stockertown
Cassandra was spectacular with our Bonnie. We met before her first drop in visit to give Bonnie and Cassandra an opportunity to meet before we were away. Cassandra was SO attentive when she would visit and Bonnie appreciated it more than ever. She’s a very social cat so people are important even on a short trip. Cassandra provided that love and attention while also making sure Bonnie’s needs were met- litter box change, water/food refill, etc.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Stockertown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.

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.
