About: I have watched family members' pets before and have a cat of my own. I also have taken care of my mom's cat and bird. I work remotely so I have flexibility in caring for your pet during the typical work day. I do not work on the weekends so I have plenty of time to care for your pet! I can walk your pet and crate them, if needed. I can spend time with them so they don't feel alone. I can also throw a ball or play with them, as needed/wanted.
“Sherman had a great stay with Jenna! It was great knowing he was well cared for while we were away. Jenna was very flexible and accommodating and sent us pictures and videos throughout the week. Sherman is looking forward to his next stay!”
“Great guy! Came by for a free pre-sitting check in to talk over needs and meet our cats. Very kind and thorough! He sent many adorable pictures. I would recommend!”
About: I have been a pet owner all my life, I myself am a cat owner, but have always loved dogs. I am able to care for animals that have medical needs, including diabetes, as I do not mind giving injections. I am also comfortable providing oral medications as well. Dogs or cats with social anxiety as well as senior animals tend to be my favorite as they always have such wonderful personalities and I love getting to know them! I really try to treat other people's animals like I treat my own. Which is to say, they will be a little bit spoiled in my care! I am currently a cat foster for the Brandywine Valley SPCA, so I am constantly learning new things about animal care needs! I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time in Paoli (M-F) but depending on location I can go over to let dogs out during my lunch break. On weekends I usually only have 1 or 2 small things if anything going on. I like to make sure to spend as much time as possible with your fur baby. Even though I will stick as close as possible to your routine, it will still be different so spending time with your cat or dog is super important since they will be somewhat deregulated without you there! If you require that I spend the night in your house, I leave it cleaner than I found it. I often like to make it seem like I wasn't there. Except I will strip the sheets off the bed if you would like to wash them when you are home. I can also leave the on the bed, whichever you prefer. I really enjoy house sitting/pet setting because the animal is in their own environment so they are more comfortable from the start!
About: I have been a caretaker to neighbors and family pets since I was young. It’s been some time but I want to get back in the game. Animals of all kind bring me joy and I’d love to share that joy with your pets. I work 4 10’s but am off religiously Sunday, Friday and alternating Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I can show up early or late and do overnights as well. It’s good for me since I am an early riser and late sleeper as well. Working with kids a majority of my life has given me a quality skill; entertainment and vigilance. Your pet will be treated like they are my own. I will do everything I can to make their time with me smooth and enjoyable. This goes for your home as well, it will be treated like my own, kept orderly and neat.

“Alexis has a very kind and calm demeanor, which was perfect for my boy (and for me!). After we met I immediately felt better about leaving my senior cat alone with her for 5 days. Communication was excellent, plenty of photo follow ups, and everything went well. Pooh is already looking forward to her next visit!”
About: I have two puppies ( 6 and 8 months old) that I am training and making food for! They go outside every hour and play fetch to get energy out. In the mornings they go for 15 minute walks. I do play soccer in the summer so on Monday and Wednesday's i have practices and games. However, in the time leading up to my practices and games I am free. My 2 dogs go out every hour, they run around and play with each other outside. They both have crates for when they need to be separated for personal space. When they come in from outside they don’t get water, only ice cube to prevent bloating. I meal prep their food for them weekly as well.
“Hailey was a great sitter. She asked insightful questions and took copious notes during our interview. She had no trouble with administering medications to my cat or trouble shooting our internet/feeder situation! We loved the photos and up to date text messages she sent while visiting. It’s nice to know we have a reliable, sweet pet sitter so close and we can leave our kitties in good hands when traveling! A great first experience with Rover, will use again!”

Leanne R.
“Leanne understands that as humans, the world belongs to our fur babies and they let us live in it! Leanne is a compassionate, dedicated and a kind person that goes above and beyond for the caring of her pets. Leanne is great with all types of pets as she’s a fur mom to a dog, 2 cats, a bunny and a cockatiel. If you are looking for someone who is going to care for your pet to the same level you would, Leanne is your girl. She also is not going to be a sitter that just goes to feed your pet and check in, she will spend time getting to know your pet, make friends with them and ensure they get the attention they deserve while you are away. Leanne knows that your pet is probably stressed being alone, so she’ll make sure they get that attention while she’s there. I highly recommend Leanne!”

Sarah E.Star Sitter
“Sarah was amazing with my 2 dogs when we were on vacation. Very reliable and went above and beyond when my dog had some stomach issues. I highly recommend her.”
Nina C.
“Nina is very reliable and caring when it comes to animals always making their care a priority. She has helped me with many of my animals including ones that I have fostered. She is very comfortable giving meds when required including insulins shots. I never hesitate to ask her first when I need pet care for my guys.”
Damen C.
“Damen is an EXCEPTIONAL caregiver. He watched my cat several times over 3 years and each time he has gone above and beyond to give him the best care possible. My cat (Mango), has a variety of medical needs and Damen has always been wonderfully communicative while he watches him, asking questions as needed, and providing updates. There is always anxiety that comes with leaving your animal, but Damen's care and attention to detail makes a world of difference. I always feel safe leaving Mango with Damen. In addition, Damen has assisted in the humane removal of two birds from our apartment building. Both birds were safely removed from the building unharmed, and honestly probably better off than they were before after hanging out with Damen. Having witnessed first hand one of the two removals, Damen has an air to him that animals know they can trust. Whether that be a cat, dog, or wild bird. Damen can handle anything that flys his way, no matter how chaotic.”
Lilia M.
“Lilia did a great job with my two cats. She was on-time and took some great photos that showed they were in good hands. Highly recommended!”
Mikayla B.
“Mia was the best! She cared for our dog Paris while we were away on vacation. She sent us regular updates with pictures and was available via phone whenever we texted! I would highly recommend using Mia for future pet sitting needs.”
Alexis N.
“Alexis has a very kind and calm demeanor, which was perfect for my boy (and for me!). After we met I immediately felt better about leaving my senior cat alone with her for 5 days. Communication was excellent, plenty of photo follow ups, and everything went well. Pooh is already looking forward to her next visit!”
Kianna B.
“We utilized Kianna when we went away for a long weekend recently to stay with and walk our reactive 12year old dog. She was understanding of our dogs diet needs/restrictions and hesitation around other dogs. She was absolutely fantastic and we came home to a happy pup! We will definitely be using her again soon!”
Hailey M.
“Hailey was a great sitter. She asked insightful questions and took copious notes during our interview. She had no trouble with administering medications to my cat or trouble shooting our internet/feeder situation! We loved the photos and up to date text messages she sent while visiting.

West Chester cat parents share their Rover experiences
Briana is awesome. She was Jacks's sitter last year and we could not think of anyone else to look after him again. We couldn't be happier with the care provided for him. Briana always followed all of our instructions for his feeding perfectly. We especially appreciated the daily adorable photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Jack, who is usually very shy around new people, seemed completely at ease and even playful in the pictures. We returned home to a very happy cat and a clean house. We highly recommend Briana!! :)
