“Kristina did a great job this weekend with our 2 medium sized dogs. She followed all our picky directions and kept the space tidy. We came home to very happy peaceful pups. Definitely would have her back”
“So glad we found Juliette to cat sit our shy rescue Samantha! It was evident how much Juliette loves cats! It gave us peace of mind to know Samantha was in good hands while we were away and we appreciated the photos!”
About: I absolutely adore animals of all kinds, and am a loving care provider. I have been commended by past clients and requested for repeat business often. I am dedicated, professional, and enthusiastic. Neighbors, friends and family have trusted and relied on me to walk, feed, play with, and bathe their pets, as well as house sit. Empathetic and patient, I take time to gain your pet’s trust. I have experience working with pets with behavior issues and medical needs, and also with dispensing/ administering medications at the clients direction when needed. In house sitting scenarios I do chores, collect mail and packages, and maintain communication with clients to ensure clients and pets expectations and needs are met at all times. I am currently available from 9 am- 2 pm, as well as after 4 pm during the week, with open availability on weekends. Arrangements can be made to house sit during the week if needed. I provide food and water to pets according to clients schedule. I ensure pets get exercise and playtime, my favorite way to get to know your pet! Long walks, park adventures, and dog park visits as requested or permitted by client. I will take pets for vet visits if client requests. Most importantly I provide love, playtime, and quality time with your fur baby!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was young. I currently have two dogs of my own: a Yorkie and a French Bulldog. I love taking care of dogs! I currently have some extra time on my hands because I’m working a part-time job. I love taking care of animals, so if it works with my schedule, I’ll definitely do it! I have a fenced-in yard where I keep two dogs. Since I live on the first floor of a duplex, I make sure to keep my house very clean and tidy.
“Lexi was fantastic sitting my 2 very picky kitties. Truly appreciate you and John looking after them and taking great care of my babies!! Will definitely ask again next year and hope you’ll be available! Thank you!!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I have been a reliable caretaker for friends, family, and neighbors! I love all kinds of dogs and would love to extend my service! I am a student at Shippensburg University and have a lot of free time in between and after classes! My weekends are always free and I am very flexible. I provide safe, attentive care by following each pet’s routine, maintaining a clean environment, supervising closely, and communicating regularly with owners to ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved.
“I’m highly impressed with Aaron. He takes dog walking to another level! Very professional and transparent. Not only does he take the dogs for a walk, but he clocks his departure and arrival and includes a map of where he went. He leaves a real nice summary that paints a picture of the dog’s outing. My 2 dogs are having a lot of fun with him. My German Shepherd dog took right to him, sensing that Aaron was a true dog lover, especially lover of German Shepherd dogs 😁. In addition to loving dogs and giving them a great time, he has that extra sense of knowing how to care for them. He let me know he wiped the salt from my dogs’’ paws upon his return from a walk in the snow. I’m feeling blessed to have found him.”
“Even after a snowstorm, Brooke showed up for my two cats! Very dependable and great communication! I used Rover because my original sitter bailed at the last minute. It was easy to set up and communicate with people nearby to help out! Brooke came through first and I was so relieved! I am so grateful and would definitely ask her again!”
About: 15 years caring for my family dog and now my own dog, plus regular walks, drop-ins, and overnight care for neighbors, friends, and family pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of every size. Millie, the Bernese Mountain Dog you’ll see in my photos, is my boyfriend’s dog; she lives at his house, not mine, but I walk and care for her often, and at over 100 pounds she’s proof that a big dog who pulls or needs a confident handler is no problem for me. I’m experienced with administering oral medications, managing leash-reactive dogs on walks, and handling standard crate and feeding routines. I keep detailed notes on each pet’s needs and I always have your vet’s information on hand in case of an emergency. At home it’s just me and Hank, my golden retriever. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with grassy areas, sidewalks for walking, and a designated pet relief area right outside. Hank is friendly with other dogs, so I’ll be upfront about whether your pet would be a good match before booking. I work from home on a standard weekday schedule, so I’m available for early morning visits before 9, midday walks and drop-ins, and evenings. Weekends are wide open. I can usually accommodate same-day requests; just message me. Safety Your pet’s safety comes first in every decision I make. I keep dogs leashed and harnessed any time we’re outside my apartment, including in hallways, elevators, and the lobby, since other residents and dogs come around corners without warning. I check the weather before every walk and adjust; short routes and shaded paths in heat, and salt-free surfaces and less time outside in the cold. Before the first visit, I collect your vet’s name and number, an emergency contact, and any medical history I should know about, including allergies, medications, and reactivity around other dogs. If anything seems wrong, you’ll hear from me immediately. Trust I’m a full-time HR professional, so handling sensitive information carefully is already how I work. I treat your keys, door codes, and home the same way. Keys are labeled with your pet’s name only, never an address or unit number, and they’re stored securely at my place when I’m not using them. I send photos and an update after every single visit, so you always know exactly what happened and when. I don’t bring anyone along on visits, and I don’t share photos of your pet publicly without asking first. If plans change on my end, you’ll hear about it early rather than at the last minute. Environment I live in a pet-friendly apartment community in Lansdale with sidewalks, grassy areas, and a designated pet relief area just outside the building. My own dog, Hank, lives here with me, and I’m upfront about whether he’s a good match for your pet before I accept a booking. My home is dog-proofed already; trash is secured, cords are tucked away, and anything unsafe stays out of reach. In your home, I stick to the areas you tell me to use and leave everything as I found it, including lights, doors, and thermostat.
“Coleen has been amazing with our one year old Aussie! She is extremely dependable, kind, and always so responsive. You can tell she is a huge dog lover from the first time you meet her! We are so happy we found a great dog walker who truly cares about our pup’s wellbeing.”
“Lauren did an amazing job watching our two dogs, including our senior dog who needs a gentler approach. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated the entire time, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We’re extremely happy with her service and would absolutely trust her with our pups again! We highly recommend Lauren!”
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors, family members, and others’ dogs. I love animals! I have two energetic Australian shepherds I care for. One requires daily medication, so I am comfortable administering medicines as well! I have cared for all different dog breeds, from beagle mixes to golden retrievers to yellow labs to pit bull mixes to Bichon Frise. I’m a young professional looking to stay active! I have lots of time to care for and walk your pets in between patient care! And lots of weekend availability, too! I prefer to keep the dog in his/her natural environment. I am comfortable using harnesses and leashes! Comfortable walking the dog and/or letting them out in a fenced in yard.
“Elizabeth was great. First visit with my fur family of a dog and 3 cats. Liz was timely and sent pics, which I always look forward to. She was conscientious and flexible when my old dog didn't want to cooperate. Appreciate the extra effort. Will definitely use Liz again.”
“Heather did an amazing job taking care of our three cats. They need separate, supervised meals that she followed exactly. Plus, she spent time twice a day with them and we got a summary and multiple pictures after each visit. I hope she’s available next time we go away!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life growing up in my childhood home! I can provide your pet with the best care possible while also giving them the love and compassion they deserve. I have also helped take care of pets for many family members & friends over the past years. I enjoy giving people the peace of mind knowing that their animals are safe! I am available many nights , afternoons, early mornings, as well as weekends. We can discuss times and availability, but availability and flexibility is a number one priority for me ! I provide compassionate and trustworthy care in both my home and my clients home. The aninals safety is my number one priority. I will make sure the pet is comfortable while also creating the best environment possible for them.
“Katie was wonderful. It was our first time to have someone do drop-in visits for our cat, Moscato. We were away for a few days and Katie kept us posted with photos and how my cat was doing. We are grateful for Katie. She is very caring, attentive and most of all trustworthy. My Moscato was well taken cared of just like her own. I feel comfortable knowing that I have Katie to contact when something comes up and need care for my cat. I highly recommend Katie!! Truly a Star sitter!!”
“Amy was wonderful with Sylvester! He is usually slow to warm up to new people, but he was great with her the first time she came for our Meet & Greet. She followed all feeding directions perfectly and sent detailed report cards with great pictures and even a video. It was clear she spent time with him, playing with his toys and making sure he was all set between visits. I have a lot of business travel coming up this fall, and I'm so glad I found Amy as I am totally confident in the care she will provide for Sylvester. Rebooking her now for my next trip.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Telford
Alex was absolutely wonderful with both of our dogs! She took her time getting to know our little Noelle, who can be very nervous and scared around new people, and was so patient and gentle while earning her trust. She was equally great with Geralt, our big, lovable goofball, and had no trouble handling his size and energy. It’s not always easy to find someone who can adjust so naturally to two dogs with completely different personalities, but Alex did it with ease. We felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care and would absolutely recommend her!
Kristy was amazing! She is so kind and very thorough with her care. My dog is 15 and has some mobility issues but Kristy made me feel comfortable leaving her in her care. She was on time and sent me updates and photos. I definitely recommend using her for your dog care and I will definitely be using her in the future!
This was our first time with Tonya since our previous rover moved away from the area. Tonya was thorough in our intro meeting to understand what we needed then took great care of our boxer while we were away. I will be booking with her again, highly recommended.

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.
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 Telford 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
