“Danielle did a great job taking care of my three cats and one dog while I was gone on a trip. She sent pictures and updates to me every day. Danielle even brought the mail in for me. I would definitely recommend her to anybody to take care of their pets. Jim”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and understand how important pets are to their families. I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate, and attentive care, treating every pet with the same kindness and respect I would give my own. As a retiree, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive pet care and accommodate your pet’s individual needs and routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I will carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and individual needs, and I will provide patient, loving, and attentive care. I will also respect your home and keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you are away.
About: I am a lifelong dog lover who has always shared my home with furry family members. Because dogs have been a constant part of my life, I truly understand their unique personalities and daily needs. I am deeply passionate about keeping dogs safe, happy & comfortable while their owners are away. I have many family members and friends who have relied on me to care for their furry family. I consider my dogs my own children and would treat any animal with the same regard! Pet care is my job! My routine is often shaped around the schedules & needs of my pets or clients' pets, and I like it that way! I care for my pets in my own home and treat every client's home like I would my own. I'm passionate about keeping pets comfortable during their stay, so I adapt to their environment and respect their space.
About: I have been a veterinarian technician for 2.5 years total. Prior to that experience, I have cared for friends, family and neighborhood pets (including reptiles) while their families were away for one reason or another. They say that you can tell alot by how a person is perceived by animals- even troublesome dogs have grown to tolerate me so I can promise that your fur children will enjoy my company and care. I've gone back to school for Respiratory Therapy which means I'm free to love on the babies all weekend and any time after 3 PM on most weekdays (varies due to distance of travel). Imagine: your dog or cat could help me study for my next exam! I have 2 cats and 2 dogs at home. Everyone is on a strict feeding schedule and my oldest pup required medications morning and evening. I keep a clean and tidy home so you can expect that I'd run a super tight ship with your critters.
About: I’ve spent the past 6 years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet seniors! I’ve cared for households with as many as 16 dogs at once, including a litter of newborn puppies, and have experience with multiple-pet households, administering medications, and extended overnight stays. I’ve also built lasting relationships with several families I’ve pet-sat for over the years, which is one of my favorite parts of what I do! But beyond the experience, I genuinely LOVE getting to know each animal. Whether your pup loves hiking, playing fetch, learning tricks, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I want to make sure they’re getting more than just the basics. I don’t just fit your pets into my schedule. I make them part of my day! 🐾 With two dogs and four cats of my own, caring for animals is already a huge part of my everyday routine! I’m very familiar with early morning potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and everything else that comes with having pets. I’m comfortable following specific routines and adjusting my day around each pet’s individual needs. I understand how important consistency is, especially when their owners are away, and I always do my best to keep their daily routines as familiar and comfortable as possible. Pet care isn’t something I just squeeze into my day. I make it my focus! ‼️A Little Note About Pricing! ‼️ I genuinely love what I do, and I understand that every pet and household has different needs! While I do have my standard rates listed, I’m always happy to discuss pricing and see what works best for YOU! My biggest priority is making sure your pets receive the love, attention, and care they deserve! ❤️ Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I know how stressful it can be for animals when their owners are away, which is why I especially enjoy caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re surrounded by familiar smells, routines, and favorite places. I pay close attention to each animal’s behavior, body language, and individual needs. Whether that means recognizing when they’re anxious, giving them space, or offering a little extra attention, I want them to feel safe and comfortable with me. I believe great pet care goes beyond simply following a list of instructions. Of course, I’ll make sure every need is met, but I also make an intentional effort to give your pets genuine companionship, affection, and enrichment throughout our time together. I want them to feel loved, not just looked after! I have experience administering medications, preparing homemade meals according to owners’ instructions, caring for senior dogs and puppies, and managing multi-pet households. I always follow your feeding schedules, house rules, and specific care instructions. I also treat your home with respect! With your permission, I’m happy to help with light tidying or small household tasks while you’re away. And of course, I love keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands! ❤️
About: I am going to school to school currently to become a veterinarian and I hopefully will get a job as a vet tech very soon! I have 3 dogs and a cat of my own and I take care of them everyday while the rest of my family is at work. I love to take my dogs on walks for about 30 minutes at least twice a day. I have a fenced in backyard and my dogs are very friendly and playful and love new friends! We have multiple crates if that is something necessary for your pet. My whole family has huge hearts when it comes to animals so your pet will be well taken care of!
“Alexa is a very kind person. It shows as she was genuinely gentle approaching Lucy and Denny Hamlin for the first time. It was love at first sight lol. Alexa is really great organizing toys and keeping kennels clean. She is very polite and I would enjoy having her back to help me with Lucy and Denny Hamlin again!”
About: I have 20+ years of canine experience, providing expert care for dogs of all ages. I have experience working with both young puppies and senior dogs, ensuring their specific needs are met with care and attention. I am skilled in training and handling, and providing safe transportation. I have managed, owned and operated doggy daycares, ensuring daily play, socialization, and individualized attention. Every dog in my care receives loving, professional, and reliable care. As a dog mom myself, pet care is a natural part of my daily schedule. I pride myself on owning happy animals by providing constant care and attention. In my home all pets are treated like family. I believe in letting dogs be dogs. Stemming from that belief, I do not crate the animals in my care (unless strictly necessary or requested by the client). I live right next to a fenced dog park so all dogs in my care get ample opportunity to stretch their legs. I also provide frequent potty breaks, daily walks and structured meal times.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 20 years. In the last 10 years I have been fostering retired racing grey hounds and huskies so I'm ready to give every dog in between the care and attention they deserve. I have regularly watched friends and families animals since I was young. I am excited for every opportunity to get to know new dogs and fall more in love with my regulars! Please let me be your peace of mind the next time you're out of town! I'm currently have a lot of free time on my hands and would love to fill that time with taking care of sweet loveable pets. As with any of my ventures, I put forth 100% of my energy to making sure your pet has a great time while you're away. I guarantee a calm, happy and healthy pet upon your return! I've seen dogs become less anxious when they are staying in their own home, in the neighborhood they know. They know you will eventually return and they dont need the transition time it takes for them to become comfortable in a unfamilar place. For that reason, I do like to promote house sitting as the least stressful method of boarding for nervious pets. Please let me know if you require any plants to watered as id be happy to help you in any other way I can. I prefer to keep my bookings to one dog or one family at a time. This is to ensure I give each dog my full attention to keep them safe and happy while yall are missing eachother! This means that I prefer walking in quiet neighborhoods instead of a park with more distractions so I can get familiar with your dog's responses and they can get familiar with me during our first few walks together. After a few walks, and your permission, we can go to dog parks where we slowly work up to being unleased. I strive for 2 or more walks a day during the summer, 3 or more walks a day during spring, fall, and winter. When we arent walking or playing outside, me and your pets will be chilling inside with 2 or more feedings a day. If you book on a holiday it is likely I will have freeze dried chicken or salmon wet food to give your pet as a special holiday treat! I feel that if its a human holiday, its also a special day for our pets because they're family.
About: I’ve taken care of others dogs as well as my own for as long as I can remember. I love getting to meet new pets and treat them as my own!! I currently work a part time job. But would love to take care of your pets when needed. By having a part time job it leaves my schedule pretty open and flexible! I am able to take care of your pets however you need or prefer! I love to take them on walks, throw the ball with them or just sit in the sun!
About: I have a husky/ retriever mix named Ice. She’ is 3 years old. I also have a cat named Heidi that is 5 years old. If you’d like I can take your dog on walks, to the dog park, and on bike rides seasonally. The jetski rides are just for Ice though 😜 My hope is to eventually fill my schedule completely with pet care for when I don’t have clients scheduled for personal training at a gym. Due to living in a small apartment and having both a dog and cat I won’t be doing pet sitting out of my own home. But I’d be happy to watch pets at client’s home or at the dog park if the client prefers.
About: I have over 45 yrs of experience in pet care. I was a dog trainer (now partially retired), owned my own pet sitting business for many years, fostered/adopted many rescues and I currently volunteer at and support several rescues. Animals are my heart and soul and I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I'm currently working part time and I will make myself available for your pet 24/7 whether it's late night potty trips outside or long walks during the day. I will care for your pets however you would like. I can do long walks, short walks, provide medications, specially prepared meals, play games, etc. I specialized in elderly dogs, hospice dogs and medical needs dogs when I fostered.
About: I have loved animals from the minute I opened my eyes. I grew up with the responsibility of caring for my critters (goats, horse, donkeys, dogs, cats) and now have two cats and dogs of my own! Within the last five years I have happily assisted friends and acquaintances with their furry friends as well. I am happy to meet y’all! It’s part of my daily routine to feed, water, and hangout with my fur babies. At this point it is second nature because I’ve done it for so long (my whole life). I will love on and play with the pet to their comfort level, am comfortable giving medication, and will send daily updates/photos! I do not house sit at my own home due to my critters
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to help with feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a more relaxed companion, I adjust to their needs and routine to keep them happy and stress-free. I’m available weeknights and weekends, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive, quality care for your pets. I’m flexible with scheduling and can accommodate evening drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. On weekends, I have more open availability for extended care, playtime, and boarding if needed. I’m reliable and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and consistency they’re used to. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs. I take safety seriously by keeping a close eye on pets at all times, using secure leashes on walks, and making sure they’re always in a safe space. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Telford is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 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.
As of October 2026, there are 436 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Telford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
