About: I have had four years of experience providing dog sitting and walking services to families. I enjoy assisting families by taking care of their pets I am currently a college student. So with my schedule, I have some free time during the days to fit in a decent walk with a pup. I also have some weekends available for house sitting. I feel strongly about being knowledgeable on the safety of my clients' homes for their pets. I will prioritize understanding each of my client's instructions to keep their pets as safe as possible.

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, and caring for them and making them happy is something I really enjoy ☺️ Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats for neighbors, friends, family, and coworkers. I’ve welcomed dogs into my home and loved them as if they were my own, taking them for walks, playing with them, giving them lots of attention, feeding them according to their family’s wishes, and giving them extra love and care when they aren’t feeling their best. I also love visiting dogs in their own homes, where I can keep them company, take them for walks, play with them, and make sure they’re happy and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I’ve cared for cats in their homes as well, making sure they have fresh food and water, some playtime and attention, and a safe and secure home while their families are away. For me, pet sitting is making sure your pets feel loved, cared for, and never alone. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I would treat yours with the same love and care I would want for my own❤️ Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I’m available for drop-in visits and walks Monday through Friday starting at 3 PM, and I’m open and flexible for any needs you may have all day Saturday and Sunday. I love being able to give pets the attention, care, exercise, and companionship they need while their families are away ❤️ I care for pets in my home and in my clients’ homes with lots of love, patience, and attention. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while their family is away. I love spending time with them, playing, going for walks, giving cuddles, and simply keeping them company so they never feel lonely. When pets stay in my home, they are truly treated like family. If they’re comfortable and their owners are okay with it, they’re even welcome to sleep on my bed with me! When I visit pets in their own homes, I follow their routines and their family’s instructions carefully. I want them to feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings while still getting plenty of love, attention, and reassurance. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I would care for yours the same way I’d want someone to care for mine.

About: Ever since I was an adolescence I’ve always been the family member and friend that was entrusted to watch everyone’s dogs for the weekend or just the day and or to walk the dogs! I have always loved dogs and taking care of them. I am a current grad student, so I am usually free in the early mornings and in the evenings besides when I’m in class. I can follow a set of instructions and schedule easily when it comes to providing care. I also will prioritize your pets safety and needs!

About: I have always loved animals and will love taking care of yours. Some info about me, I work as a volunteer vet tech so I am able to give your dog oral or subcutaneous medicine. My family and I have four dogs and two cats that I take care of by taking them on walks, brushing their teeth, and bathing. I have also dog sat a couple homes while pet parents are away. I am currently a student at wcu and am on a flexible schedule as my gymnastics season just ended and the semester is coming to an end. I have a Maltese poodle mix(Chase) that lives at college with me and my roommates and I always put him on a leash when letting him outside and he is currently on an eating routine. Chase is a picky pup with allergies and high anxiety so I have understood how to deal with high maintenance dogs and well as my sisters German shepherd and lab and the two dogs and cats my parents have at home. I am well versed with taking care of any type of dog or cat.

About: Your pet won't just be supervised—they will be completely folded into my daily routine, receiving constant affection, belly rubs, and inclusion in family life. My experience with animals isn't just a job; it’s a lifelong calling. For over a decade, I have cared for a diverse family of pets, mastering the art of reading their subtle body language and anticipating their needs. I understand that every dog has a unique personality—from the high-energy pup who needs an exhausting game of fetch to the quiet senior who wants a gentle hand on their head. My hands-on experience has taught me how to establish instant trust, calm anxious minds, and provide a nurturing environment where pets don't just stay, but truly thrive. As a work-from-home entrepreneur, my schedule is entirely my own—which means your pet is never an afterthought, but a central part of my day. Because I control my hours, I don’t leave for a 9-to-5. Instead, my workspace is shared with your pet, offering them a constant, comforting human presence that drastically reduces separation anxiety. My daily routine is intentionally built around natural breaks that perfectly mirror a dog's need for stimulation, affection, and rest. I transform my home into a peaceful, tail-wagging sanctuary where your pet is treated as an honored family member, not a guest. Because I work from home, my environment is calm, highly predictable, and entirely secure.

“Kieralyn did an incredible job taking care of our four cats for a week during the nights. One of them needed medical attention, and she handled it wonderfully. She made sure they always had enough food and water, thoroughly cleaned the litter boxes, and gave our cat the necessary insulin shots. She took such great care of them that we believe our cats will miss her! We couldn’t have asked for better care.”

About: I grew up in a household with many animals and have always loved walking our dogs and taking care of the cats and other animal friends. I would love to care for your pets and give them a special moment in their day and help you remove one thing off the to-do list. Our lives get very busy and for pet-owners, having an extra hand here and there can be very beneficial. As a college student, I am using Rover to help with finances during the semesters. Mixing physical exercise with hanging out with your pet for some time sounds like the perfect activity for me! I hope to be able to assist you with your pet needs. Best, Sieira I am currently a college student at West Chester University and a part-time employee at Wawa, so my availability depends on the day. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am able to be booked for walks or drop ins from 11:30am until 5pm. Saturdays I am only available in the afternoon, from 4pm to 8pm. Sundays I am available anytime requested in the morning until 5pm! I always ensure the pet is comfortable on walks, offering plenty of sniff breaks and giving them lots of water afterwards. For drop ins, I would love to hang out with your pet and allow for some fun socialization when they need it! I always do a temperature check on what the pet is feeling before taking action, as every animal is different and has various needs.

About: I have a lot of experience with pets, both dogs and cats from a young age. I have a five year old Boston terrier at home. I am currently working a full time job, but I would be available for drop in visits/dog walks during the week after 3pm or on the weekends either day or night time. I am currently living in a small apartment so I would not be available for boarding someone else’s dog in my own home. Thank you.

About: I have had 5 dogs ranging in needs, size, and age (lab, chow chow, dachshund, blue heeler, and corgi). I have provided care to my own pets as well as family, friends, and neighbors for my entire life. I frequently volunteer at the SPCA where I take various dogs on walks and take care of them outside the shelter for a full day. I absolutely love all animals, especially dogs. I am dedicated to meeting all dogs different needs, providing undivided attention to all animals. I am open to provided any needed services and am fairly flexible. I am a current student at West Chester University so my schedule may vary by week (I will update my availability weekly!). I have a lot of free time that allows me to have unlimited time to take care of and love your furry friends!! I currently have 3 dogs, a bird, and a cat. One of my dogs is old (11 years old) so I am used to the medicine and senior routine that he requires. I feed all 3 of my dogs, take them on walks daily, and provide them with the upmost care and love.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters would be that I truly like to learn from the pets background and history. Learning how smart and brave they can be. The hours I chose previously were perfect with my weekly routine because I can be very flexible and available during that time. Time would not be a problem. I would care for my clients pets just how I would want my pet to be taken care of, with responsibility, safety, care and trust.

About: I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I have experience with all types of animals and live on 2 acres of land, giving pets plenty of space to enjoy. I’m patient with young pets who need help with training and routines, and gentle with senior pets who need extra care. I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As someone who currently works part-time, I'm available to provide pet care after 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, and I have additional availability on weekends. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether it's going for walks, playing, feeding, or simply giving them love and companionship. I treat every pet like part of my own family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priority I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for all kinds of animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each owner's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications if needed, and any special routines. Whether it's dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, or other pets, I provide patient, dependable care while maintaining a clean and safe environment. My goal is to keep pets happy, healthy, and as comfortable as possible while their owners are away.

About: Hi, I’m Sarah. Having grown up on a farm, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. This background gave me a deep understanding of animal behavior and taught me the responsibility it takes to keep pets happy, healthy, and safe. I love connecting with animals of all shapes and sizes, and I bring that dedicated, farm-raised work ethic to every pet I watch. It fits in with the care that I provide for my pet. Strict feedings schedules, walks, attention, bathroom breaks and being aware of how a pet is acting. Respect for the clients' rules about how they want their pet cared for and respect for their personal space. Also, making sure animals get along.

I needed a cat sitter last minute for 4th of July weekend, and luckily I found Morgan for drop-in visits. She was very sweet and accommodating, and took excellent care of my cats. She provided detailed updates, lots of photos, and took the time to play and interact with them. I trusted that my cats were in good hands with her. I’d recommend Morgan to anyone in need of a petsitter!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - West Chester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in West Chester is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 4,303 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West Chester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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 .

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

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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.
