About: I have experience caring for my 2 kitties and helping friends and family with their cats, dogs, and even fish! I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule right now and can be consistent with pet care. I’ll currently in nursing school (evening classes), so I’m working and saving. I’m available most days for walks, check-ins, and sitting, and I stick to your pet’s routine! I focus on keeping pets safe and comfortable. I have two cats, so I’m used to daily care and routines. I will follow instructions closely and make sure pets are supervised and stress free.
About: I'm patient and flexible. My full time job allows me flexible hours early in the morning stretching all day. I love hanging out with animals of all shapes and sizes, and am willing to meet all of you and your pet's needs. I enjoy walking so I'm more than happy to put on a podcast and take your pet on a journey or hang out with your pet at home. My dog is 50 pounds but I've cared for pets from 5 pounds to 100 so I'm comfortable with all sizes. I am reliable and trustworthy, seeking to just fill my extra time in a fun and productive way for both myself and your pet. Please reach out if you have questions! I'm a 30 year old man in case that matters.
About: Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile and consider me as a care taker for your animal while you are away! I have grown up with dogs (and the occasional bird & fishies). For the past 12 years, I've lived with and visited my best bud Zeke at my parent's house. I would love to have a dog of my own in the future, however for now I am hoping and so happy to take care of other's loved ones during the week and on weekends! I'm an active individual and enjoy taking dogs on walks, for car rides and the occasional ice cream or pup cup. I will give your animal all the love that they've come to expect because they certainly deserve it! Please reach out with any questions, and thanks again for thinking of me! :) I currently work full time (9-5) Monday-Friday, however I usually work from home Friday's and am available on weekends for full time pet care. During the week, I am able to visit (feed, walk, take out for bathroom needs) early in the morning (between 5:30 am to 7 am and in the evening (between 6-9 pm) In my current apartment, pets are welcome visitors. However, I am also happy to visit your home multiple times a day and stay with your pet when needed, especially if you are close! I work only 20 minutes away so I would have ample time in the morning and especially in the evening to stop by to feed, toilet, walk and play with your pet! This is especially great if your pet doesn’t do well in a new environment; I am happy to provide them with everything they’d need in a place where they feel the most comfortable!
About: I’ve dog sat several families dogs while they go away on vacation since I was in high school. I have a dog of my own that I’ve trained since she was a puppy! I currently work for Villanova athletics and just moved to the area. My mornings are free until I have to go into the office so why not spend it with dogs! My favorite thing to do is hang out with my dog. She is my whole world and I want someone else’s dog to have the same company when they need to work and have other priorities.
“Could not have been happier with my service! Thalita and her daughter were so amazing with Meelo. I really appreciated their flexibility and overall joy to come and see him. Thank you so much! For sure will be using her services again.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who turned my passion into a professional career. I have over 4 years of experience as an independent pet sitter, specializing in the care that requires an extra level of attention and expertise. Whether your pet is a playful kitten or a beloved senior, I treat every animal like family. My background is specifically focused on Senior & Disabled Care: Supporting older pets with mobility issues or specialized routines.

Lifetime of Experience: I’ve been around animals since I was a kid, so I’m deeply in tune with pet body language and needs. I want to provide the best care possible while staying accessible! Please note: To cover transit time and costs, any bookings located 5miles or further from 19146 will incur a travel fee of 5$ I work from home so I can pet sit, walk, or check in on your fur babies whenever needed. including overnight or for more than one day. I have a lot of experience with all sorts of animals from runners and behaviorally challenged to disable and senior animals I dont do sittings at my house but i'm looking into taking daycares for eligible animals! I do not do boarding all daycares are held in public usually along trails or at local dog parks!
“Si Yeon took good care of my girls and was communicative throughout! My cats both liked her and seemed to be comfortable around her which put my mind at ease. Would definitely recommend!”
“Excellent care and very professional. Sofia was wonderful, our very timid cat even came out for her on the first visit. She is excellent at administering injections. Will use again.”
About: I work part-time for an independent pet-sitting company and have lots of sitting and walking experience. I grew up taking care of family dogs and have recently become accustomed to cat care as well. Employed part-time and a part-time student (asynchronous schedule). Generally very available and plenty of flexibility. I’m especially open to sitting on the weekends. I don’t have a fenced yard, but am more than willing to transport pets to a more favorable outdoors spot to play/relax. There are two cats in my home, but I’m able to keep them separated for extended periods of time.
About: Hi! I'm Alexis, and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk, keeping your cat company while you're away, or staying overnight in your home, my goal is always the same - to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're gone. I've been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic huskies to laid-back pugs and cocker spaniels. I also have years of experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own unique routine and personality. Outside of Rover, I work full-time in a leadership role where reliability, communication, and attention to detail are essential every day. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully, keep your home secure, arrive when expected, and treat your pets like family. You'll receive regular photo updates and messages during every visit, so you'll always know how your pet is doing. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I currently work full-time during the day, which makes me a great fit for afternoon and evening drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight house sitting. I keep my calendar up to date and always communicate promptly, so you'll know exactly when to expect me. Reliability is important to me, and I strive to provide dependable care that fits seamlessly into your pet's routine. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and supported in their normal routine. I follow your instructions closely and treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I also understand that every pet is different. Whether your dog thrives on long walks or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I adjust my care to fit their personality and routine.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for most of my life. I got my first dog around age 11 and have had multiple dogs over the years, along with a ferret, hamster, and fish. I’ve also helped care for family members’ dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Animals have always been a big part of my life and continue to be. I truly enjoy being around them and caring for them, and I always joke that one day I’m going to end up with my own little farm because I want every animal I see! I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to take breaks for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, or whatever a pet may need. My daily routine is pretty laid back, so I have the time and flexibility to give pets plenty of attention and care. I’ll be caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I would always talk with the pet parent beforehand about their normal routine, what they’re allowed or not allowed to do, feeding instructions, walks, and any other specific needs. I’m big on following the owner’s instructions, keeping their pet safe and comfortable, and being respectful of their home and belongings.
“Great experience. Natalie got my shy cat to eat his food which is a big deal. If you need the pets to be fed at a certain time, make sure you are specific about that. I didn’t (my fault) and the cats got fed an hour early on her last day. Not a big deal but they will now bug me for the next two weeks to feed them an hour early haha. Will hire her again next time we’re out of town”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wayne
Emma was wonderful with Benny while we were away. She was very reliable, kept me updated every day, and paid close attention to his food, water, and overall behavior. I really appreciated how thoughtful and communicative she was, especially since Benny can be a little cautious with new people. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was checking on him every day. I would definitely recommend Emma and would be happy to book with her again!
Julie took wonderful care of my two dogs while I was away. She was caring, attentive, and treated them as if they were her own. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She kept me updated, made sure all of their needs were met, and gave them plenty of love and attention. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter.
Marisa was fantastic, especially helping out on Easter! She fed dinner, spent quality time playing outside, and sent photos and videos that showed just how happy and relaxed our goldendoodle was. She was prompt, stayed for the full visit, and clearly put care and attention into every detail. We also really appreciated the meet-and-greet beforehand—it made the whole experience even more comfortable. Highly recommend her!
Laura was absolutely wonderful! She was super communicative, and made the entire experience seamless. She sent photos during the visit, took my dog on a nice walk, and was incredibly kind and friendly throughout. It gave me great peace of mind knowing everything was handled so well. Fantastic experience, I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her! 🐾
Ashley has always been reliable and great during her drop-in visits. She communicates clearly, arrives when she says she will, and makes sure our dog is taken care of. Our dog is comfortable with her, and we always feel at ease knowing she’s checking in on him. We appreciate her help and would gladly use her again.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Wayne is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $34 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 November 2026, there are 9,226 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Wayne. 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.
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 Wayne 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. 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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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. 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.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
