About: I have taken care of cats and dogs since I was a child. From puppies and kittens to old dogs and cats. I have fostered and sat for friends and family. I have a dog of my own who’s a very active breed so I am constantly playing or walking with her. My family has two cats and they are a blast to play with or just hangout with. I can create a nice environment for your pet, however you see fit. For active dogs we can go on walks or find a fenced in area to play.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the fact that I will love and care for your dog as if it was my own. I’ve been babysitting my neighbors dogs for about 2 years now, so I’m experienced with different types of dogs! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. There’s a lot of times within the day where I will be able to stop by and check on your dog! I provide loving and reliable pet care in clients’ homes by following each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.

About: I have had pets in my home since I was born, and currently have a 15-year-old and a 14-year-old back at home with my mom now. I fostered a pup from ACCT Philly for a few months, volunteered at the Humane Society, and often dog-sit for friends/ family. I have class every day for 1-3 hours, but I am open anytime outside of my class hours and have a super flexible, accommodating schedule. I follow their request and expectation for how their dog is to be treated and cared for, while giving them appropriate attention and exercise. I ensure I am present to care for the dog and ensure all their needs are met.

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog as well as family and friends dogs for about 10 years. I am able to take long walks, feed, and entertain in general. I consider myself very trustworthy as I’ve had a dog my whole life. I recently just graduated college and am back home living in LANGHORNE, PA so I am free on weekdays any time after 12 pm. I can walk around for some good exercise for the dog or just play in the yard. I live in a great area for nice long walks. If I’m staying at a clients home, I provide lots of cuddles inside as well as fun play time outside.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for the past 4 years and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, including puppies and senior dogs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits well into my routine and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I make it a priority to be reliable and responsive so pet owners can feel confident and not have to worry while they are away. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make both you and your pet feel at ease. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep you updated, and make sure your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always want them to feel comfortable and secure.

About: Hi, I’m Matt. I love dogs and enjoy giving them a calm, comfortable place to stay while their owners are away. I grew up with dogs and have often helped care for my parents’ and sister’s dogs, so I know how important it is to have someone dependable who treats your dog like part of the family. I work from home in health IT consulting, which allows me to be present during the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and general companionship. I only take one client at a time, so your dog will get plenty of individual attention and will not be in a crowded boarding environment. I live in a quiet, owner-occupied apartment in West Chester with no children and no other pets. My home is best for small or mid-sized dogs who are comfortable in an apartment setting. While I do not have a fenced yard, I take dogs out for supervised leash walks, and the neighborhood has grassy areas and light local traffic. I’m happy to provide daily exercise, potty breaks every 2–4 hours, and oral medication administration if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed if that is what they are used to at home. For safety and comfort, I always like to do a meet and greet before confirming a stay to make sure it is a good fit for your dog, your expectations, and my home environment. I can also provide recommendations/references from people whose dogs I have cared for. I currently accept dogs over 1 year old, crate-trained dogs only, and no females in heat. I’m especially a good fit for dogs who do well in a quieter home and enjoy walks, attention, and a predictable routine. Overnight boarding is based on Rover’s 24-hour booking period. I’m always happy to clarify drop-off and pick-up timing before a stay so there are no surprises. I look forward to helping your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I work from home in health IT consulting and have flexibility throughout the day. I’m usually home during the workday, which allows me to provide regular attention, potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. During a typical day, I can take dogs out for potty breaks every 2–4 hours and provide walks or exercise based on the dog’s needs, energy level, and the weather. I also build in time for play, rest, and keeping the dog comfortable in a calm home environment. Because I only take one client at a time, I’m able to keep the schedule focused on that dog’s normal routine as much as possible. I ask owners to share feeding times, walk preferences, medication needs, crate routines, and any special instructions so I can keep their dog’s care consistent and predictable while they are away. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment for dogs in my home. I live in a quiet, owner-occupied apartment with no children and no other pets, and I only take one client at a time so each dog receives individual attention. Before confirming a stay, I always prefer to do a meet and greet to make sure your dog is comfortable with me, my home, and the overall environment. I want both the owner and the dog to feel confident that it is a good fit. During a stay, I follow the owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, crate routines, walking preferences, and any behavioral or comfort needs. I provide regular potty breaks every 2–4 hours, supervised leashed walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Since I work from home, I am usually able to give dogs attention and supervision during the day. Dogs are welcome on furniture and the bed if that matches their routine at home. I do not have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is supervised and on leash. My neighborhood has grassy areas and light local traffic, which makes it a good setting for regular walks. For safety and comfort, I currently accept dogs over 1 year old, crate-trained dogs only, and no females in heat. I can also provide oral medication administration when needed. I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and have had dogs my whole life. Volunteering at the SPCA, to either play with, clean kennels, walk, and just to hang out and give them love! My neighbors, family, and friends have always relied on me to take care of their dogs while they are away! I am currently working part time but I have a lot of availability throughout the summer to be able to take care of your animals. Anytime I get to either snuggle with dogs/ cats, play with any animal I treat them as if they were my own! Making sure they are comfortable with me before we start having some playtime fun, if I know an animal doesn’t like something I will back away and stop what I’m doing until they are comfortable and calmed down! Keeping your dog in the crate no problem!! Each rule and instructions you give me I will follow to the max! Anything that happens or if needed to be changed due the weather etc. I will update you and let you know! I also send pictures of your furry friends each time I visit so that you can see how they are doing!

Jessica is the best! She lets our pup out every single weekday religiously, takes her for walks, plays with her, lifeguards for her, and even dries her off afterwards! I knew Jessica would be great for our dog because she is a multiple-pet owner herself, and has years of experience with dogs and cats. I honestly and truly trust that our dog is in good hands with Jessica!

Leanne was fantastic with our senior dog. He got over-excited when she arrived and had a little mental episode but she was wonderful with him and understanding. The rest of the visit was fantastic, as she made sure he was comfortable and aware that he wasn’t alone. (He has separation anxiety) We could not recommend her enough!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - West Chester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in West Chester on Rover is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 per visit. 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 8,656 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across West Chester. 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 West Chester 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.

To find sitters in West Chester with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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.
