About: I have 4 years of experience caring for my family pets and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities and can help with feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I’m patient, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, boarding depending on my class schedule, and weekend stays so you can have your weekend getaways knowing your pet is safe. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your instructions carefully, keep a close eye on your pet, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I’m responsible, patient, and understand that every pet has different needs and routines. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and pictures so you know your pet is doing well.

About: There's never been a time in my life when I didn't have a pet - dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I've helped take care of friend's and neighbors pets while on vacation since I was a teenager. We recently had to say bye to our dog, Bateman, of 13 years and as much as I'd love to welcome another pet into our lives, we're just not ready yet, but we'd love to show some love to your fur babies! We have a big, fenced in backyard and we are attached to a park that's great for walks, so I'd love to see Bateman's space put to good use. My husband and I both work from home and I don't have a set schedule so I can be flexible and available throughout the day. I also take daily walks at the park attached to our neighborhood, so I'd love to have friend to take along with me for some exercise. We have a 7-year-old son and 15-year-old daughter who both love animals and will be more than happy to love on your fur babies. I used to have my own little escape artist at home, so I'm very cautious when opening doors to ensure no one gets out unless there's a fence or they're on a leash.

About: I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away! As a graduate student, my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have the most flexibility during evenings and weekends. I enjoy fitting pet care into my routine and am happy to work with owners to make sure their pets get the care and attention they need! I care for each pet based on their normal routine and individual needs. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any other care they may need. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and safe while their owners are away!

Not only did she help me out of a bind but she did an amazing job taking care of my girls and sent me lots of photos and kept me updated. Not once was I worried about my dogs while I was away. Your pets would be in great hands with Anna, I would absolutely hire her again.”

About: I’ve cared for both my friends animals and watched over my family’s animals as well as my own and view the service as equally beneficial. They need my service and I love animals. I work 5 days a week, but I’m available evenings every single day as well as weekends all day! Also available for very early mornings if necessary. In my own home me and my animals have tons of fun, we play and cuddle until they’re tired. I see value in exercise, play and following commands so I adhere to the demands of the owner when entering others homes.

Her notes after the visits were detailed and gave us comfort knowing everyone was doing well. She even took the time to play with the cats and give them each some attention during her short visits.

“I am a first-time customer with Rover.com. I submitted a request for a petsitter to watch my cats while I was out of state. For six days (including Labor Day weekend), Sarah M. took excellent care of my “Little Ones”. During all ten visits, she went the extra mile and cleaned up the occasional fur balls (yuck🤢) and small-scale disasters my cats made. My cats took a liking to her and that doesn’t usually happen. That means there’s something special about Sarah M. She is thorough, meticulous, kind, considerate, and professional. I’ll gladly ask her to watch my pets again! Thank you, Sarah! You’re a godsend!!😊💯👍🏾”

About: I’ve cared for cats my entire life and have experience with a wide range of personalities, from social and affectionate to shy or recently rescued. I’ve provided pet sitting for family and friends, including both cats and dogs. I also have hands on experience helping stray and rescue cats adjust to indoor environments. In addition, I’m comfortable handling small animals and have experience owning and caring for ferrets. I prioritize patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s individual needs to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I currently just graduated high school at York County School of Technology while enrolled in the Licensed Cosmetology program! I obtained my cosmetology license in December of 2025. I’m currently waiting to begin my journey in the esthetics side of the cosmetology industry! I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends, as well as mid afternoon and nights. I personally prioritize creating a safe, calm, and stress free environment for every pet in my care. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any specific needs so I can keep their environment consistent and comfortable. I’m attentive to details such as securing doors, safe feeding practices, and monitoring behavior for any signs of stress or illness. I’m also respectful of client homes and follow all instructions carefully to ensure both pets and property are well cared for. For more anxious or shy animals, I focus on patience and gentleness to build trust at their pace. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you feel confident and informed while you’re away.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gaby was absolutely amazing with our dogs, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. I had to book with her very last minute because of my work schedule, and she didn’t hesitate to help. She was incredibly accommodating and made the entire process completely stress-free. From the moment we met her, she was kind, professional, and clearly cared deeply about animals. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Gaby went above and beyond to make sure they stayed on their normal routine and received plenty of attention, love, and care. It was obvious that she treated them like they were her own. Another huge plus is that her prices are very reasonable, especially considering the exceptional level of care she provides. Finding someone who is affordable, reliable, and truly loves animals is rare, and Gaby exceeded every expectation we had. We will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and amazing dog sitter!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Valley Forge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Valley Forge is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $32 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 2,049 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Valley Forge. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Valley Forge. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
