“Megan G. was fantastic, especially on such short notice! She followed all of my instructions carefully, and it was clear that she took great care of Winnie. When I got home, Winnie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Megan was reliable, communicative, and attentive to detail, which gave me great peace of mind. I was so pleased with her care that I've already booked her for weekly drop-in visits. I highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Joana was wonderful! One of my cats needs medicine twice a day in a specific timeframe and she was prompt and very trustworthy. They were obviously well cared for when I got home. Will definitely book Joana for my next vacation!”
About: I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs, from judgy chihuahuas to laid-back Bernese mountain dogs. I’ve taken care of them from their playful puppy days through their senior years. I’m patient, experienced, and understand that every dog has their own unique personality, and I’m here for all of it! I currently work full-time (9am–5pm, Monday through Friday), but I’m flexible and happy to coordinate with your schedule to make sure your baby gets the care they need! I prioritize safety and trust by keeping open, honest communication. As long as you fill me in on any quirks, meds, or non-negotiables, I’ll keep things running just how they like it. And if anything feels off or out of my league, I’ll be honest, because your dog’s safety is way more important than winging it!
“Dion provided outstanding drop-in care for my cat, exceeding all expectations. She was always on time and sent photos with her updates. Dion cares deeply about animals. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy, compassionate sitter.”
About: I have had dogs all my life, my parents would be at work most of the day so I would take my dogs for walks, feed them, and take care of them. I am committed to creating a nurturing and safe environment for every dog under my care, treating them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide peace of mind to pet owners by ensuring their furry friends receive the highest level of attention and love! I am a recent Graduate from George Mason University and currently have full availability! I am currently in Pennsylvania for the time being, and my schedule is completely open as of right now! I follow the pet's established routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise schedules, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I spend quality time with each pet, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, reducing any anxiety they might feel in their owner's absence.
“Stephen was a great sitter for my 2 cats! One needed medicine, and she took it from. him like a champ. The other is usually afraid of sitters, but he befriended Stephen right away! I know this because Stephen sent me photos and/or videos for every visit. He was very responsive and friendly, with a great sense of humor. Thank you Stephen!”
About: I have been caring for my grandparents dogs while they go on vacation ever since I was 10, always making sure they were walked, fed, and kept in clean conditions. Caring for animals is never about just getting the job done for me, I genuinely love animals of all kind and enjoy interacting with them and getting to know each pets personality. In the absence of pets of my own, I have even taken to befriending crows, squirrels, chipmunks, and more in my backyard so that I still get to engage with animals daily. I currently only work part time on certain days, allowing me full freedom to care for your animals as often as needed to ensure they do not get lonely or bored while you are away! I always make sure the animals basic needs are met—food, water, and physical/mental stimulation—but also go above and beyond to make the animal feel loved and less anxious while their families are away.

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!

“Lana did an amazing job with my boys. Very caring and attentive. She followed all instructions and I was at ease. Many photos were sent and I was informed of their daily activities.”
“Amberleigh went above and beyond with our two kitties! She was so incredibly communicative, always sending helpful updates each day. I can’t even describe the peace of mind it brought me to have her looking over our boys, I think our cats might even be a little upset to see us back instead of her haha!! I would recommend Amberleigh to anyone and everyone who needs a reliable sitter!”
“Bona was great with communication and taking care of Gipper! We've been reluctant to find new dog sitters since we moved, but had last minute plans. Will definitely ask for her help again.”
“Helena did a great job taking care of our two cats for a week. She came at the agreed-upon time each day, gave them lots of love, pets, and playtime, and sent us pictures that helped us not miss them quite as much; although that’s hard, of course! We felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been a dog lover my whole life and view them as part of our family. For my entire life, I've had at least one dog in my home and truly could not imagine it any other way. You can be confident that when your dog is with us they will be cared for compassionately and given lots of love and attention. We truly feel our home is the dream destination for your dog - we have a big fenced in yard for them to safely play and sunbathe. We work from home so can give lots of attention and care throughout the day. We also have two dogs in our family that are the most laid back and relaxed dogs I've ever met. If your dog likes to play, they will play and if your dog likes to relax and sleep or doesn't want much interaction, they go off into their own areas to sleep. I work from home so have the ability to be present with your dogs throughout the day to make sure they are given attention and affection they need! We can easily go outside (we have a fenced in yard) for potty breaks and play at multiple points throughout the day and in the evenings we are home and enjoy being outside. We want your dog to feel at home with us! We have a fenced in yard so they can safely play outside and get exercise as needed. Our two dogs get along with all other dogs they've met - they will play sporadically throughout the day but love to lay in the sun, look out the windows and front door and be close to us while we work from home. We're confident that your dog will feel right at home with us.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wayne
This was my first time using rover and I could not have had a better experience with Alexandra. She went above and beyond taking care of my cats Jules and Fiji. Any nerves I had about leaving my cats with special feeding instructions and medical needs were put to rest by Alexandra. She is a true life saver and you can tell how much she enjoys getting to know your pets and makes every effort to address their needs! Alexandra will be my first choice should I need help checking in on the kitties in the future!
Daphne was great!! My cat is usually a bit shy but he opened up to her so quickly, and it was very obvious that he felt comfortable and cared for the whole time. Daphne was also super communicative and thorough, and I will definitely be requesting her as a sitter the next time I need one.
We highly recommend Jackie and would definitely rebook with her again! She took great care of our two ragdolls cats! They were well fed and played with during our one week vacation. She always sent multiple pictures and was very timely with her drop in visits! Thanks Jackie!
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!
Stephen was a great sitter for my 2 cats! One needed medicine, and she took it from. him like a champ. The other is usually afraid of sitters, but he befriended Stephen right away! I know this because Stephen sent me photos and/or videos for every visit. He was very responsive and friendly, with a great sense of humor. Thank you Stephen!
Aaren is so very attentive, reliable, and sweet towards pets! I was so relieved to have her looking and attending to my gerbils while away in Europe for a week and a half. She is great with communication and truly a wonderful caregiver, going above and beyond!
Lauren was perfect! I really appreciated her communication and commitment to checking in on my cat. She sent me pictures as well as an update on the visit. I am such a nervous wreck when it comes to leaving my cat, it felt so nice knowing someone was there and actually cared. Would hire again!
Julie did a wonderful job taking care of my cats while I was gone, providing plenty of pictures for me and engagement for them. She was also willing to work with me to get through my building's byzantine security system, which I appreciated. She made my first extended trip away from my cats a stress free experience.
Marisa is the best pet sitter I have ever known. She’s accountable, sweet and a very good listener. We extended our trip and she was so accommodating. Her videos came over at the same times each morning and evening and made our trip so enjoyable because we saw how happy our cats were with Marisa.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wayne is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $39 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 9,625 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 Wayne. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
