Karen does an excellent job caring for my cat. She is dependable and I look forward to seeing her reports each day. She always sends pictures and I can tell that she really likes my cat and my cat seems to like her. It really reduces my guilt about leaving my cat alone. Karen will be my go to cat sitter from now on!

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Amber! She made it so much easier for me to actually enjoy my vacation without worrying about my kitties the entire time — especially since two of them are still very young. She was incredibly attentive and sweet, sent me pictures and videos every day, and gave me updates at every visit, which meant so much to me. She was also extremely reliable and followed all of my care instructions perfectly, which gave me so much peace of mind. Because of Amber, I felt completely comfortable leaving my kittens for the first time. On top of all of that, she even tidied up my apartment before I came home, which was such a kind and unexpected touch! Amber went above and beyond, and I’m beyond grateful! I would ABSOLUTELY book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets. If you want to leave your pet without any worry at all, and the best care for your fur-baby book with Amber!!

Diana was very accommodating & was able to help me out at the last minute. She did very well with my two dogs & they seemed to be very comfortable with her. She followed my detailed instructions & didn't appear to have any problems with my sometimes problematic dog. I would definitely recommend Diana to those who need a caring, responsible pet sitter.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, and various small animals, I'm well-prepared to look after your beloved pet. As a current owner of two dogs(cockapoo and pitbull), five cats, and two guinea pigs, I'm comfortable with senior pets, administering medications (even to picky eaters!), and doing whatever it takes to ensure your peace of mind while you're away. I currently work a full time job with a block schedule so I know my availability ahead of time. Even on the days I work I am willing to stop by before and/or after work. I am great with late nights as my shifts end at 3AM I am respectful entering my clients home and willing to follow any instructions provided to me. If I am ever unsure about anything I will contact my client to ensure I’m giving their pets proper care.

About: I have always had pets since a little girl. Grew up with our family dog shadow, and now I have one for my own. I love pets. They make the world a better place I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time for some paw patrol. I don’t mind sitting a Saturday if it’s requested with enough time. I have a big yard for plenty of play time. I also have my own pet that can accompany yours while they are with me. I can also crate your pet.

About: Hello! My name is Sarah, and I love all creatures, great and small. I am a highly professional individual dedicated to making sure my animal and human clients are equally satisfied. I have extensive experience in dog walking and pet sitting, with a specialty in rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, and other exotics, in addition to many years of husbandry, training, and maintenance at horse boarding facilities and other farms. In addition to my work with domesticated animals, I also worked in my college's vivarium for three semesters, training capuchin monkeys in basic actions designed to keep them safe, enriched, and calm with vet staff. Personally, I am the proud bunny mom to four free-roam rescue rabbits. In my lifetime, I’ve also owned and loved dogs, horses, rats, gerbils, hamsters, mice, turtles, aquatic frogs, and small lizards; I have cared for cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, parrots, goats, donkeys, and more. As a dog walker and pet sitter, I have cared for terriers to pit bulls; puppies to seniors with special needs. When you book a walk or a sitting session with me, you and your pet are guaranteed the following: -Prompt communication, including verification of time, location, and services -On-time arrival -Energy, care, and activity level catered to your pet's specific needs (either provide me with this information before hand, or I will be able to pick up on this within moments of meeting your pet) -Complete confidence in your pet's safety, even with the largest dog or most exotic reptile -A detailed report of what we did together, how your pet acted, and anything else particularly notable that came up during our time together Please feel free to inquire about anything you see on my profile, and I look forward to meeting you and your pet soon!

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs of multiple family members and friends. I love to walk dogs and spend time with them as well! I live across from a park, so walks are very nice and long. I have a flexible summer internship where I am looking for hours during the day to walk/look after dogs and other animals. My availability depends on the day. I am looking for multiple times in the day to either let a pet out or take them for a walk. I have a yard without fences where a dog can run around. I have plenty of room in my house for an animal to walk/play around. I am able to supply food and water for pets in my home.

About: I have had pets since I was born and still do. I love taking care of them and enjoy their presence. They are my world. My best friend and I make sure that every pet gets the attention they deserve. We make it our responsibility to have their tails wagging and our hearts warm. I work a job that I’m only there for about 4 hours. Other than that I’ll be with your dogs and cats completely with my full attention. I feel all pets deserve walks and to be played with. I also give good cuddles!! Feeding whenever necessary and water bowl always filled. I also clean up the waste and brush hair/fur.

About: Your pet deserves more than just a sitter, they deserve someone who genuinely cares. Hi! I’m Danita, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly enjoy. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, jogging, playing fetch, or simply curling up beside someone who gives them lots of affection, I’ll tailor their stay to their individual personality and routine. As someone who lives an active lifestyle, I especially enjoy taking energetic dogs on walks, hikes, or runs (with your approval). If your dog prefers a slower pace, I’m just as happy spending quality one-on-one time giving them love, attention, and gentle exercise. My goal is simple: To care for your pet exactly the way I would want someone to care for mine. What You Can Expect: 🐾 Lots of love and attention 🐾 Walks, playtime, enrichment, and exercise 🐾 Optional jogs or runs for active dogs 🐾 Potty breaks on schedule 🐾 Fresh water always available 🐾 Medication administration if needed 🐾 Plenty of belly rubs and cuddles 🐾 Daily photo and video updates 🐾 Clear communication throughout your pet’s stay I know how difficult it can feel leaving your pet behind. I’ll make sure you feel connected every step of the way. My Care Philosophy: Every dog is different. Some need exercise. Some need patience. Some need confidence. Some simply need someone who makes them feel safe. Before every booking, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, favorite toys, feeding schedule, commands, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. I believe consistency creates confidence, and that’s exactly what I strive to provide. Exercise & Adventures: If your dog enjoys being active… We’ll have fun! I love: 🐕 Walks 🏃 Jogging 🌳 Nature walks 🎾 Fetch 🦴 Mental enrichment games I’ll always match your dog’s age, health, and energy level. Safety always comes first. Communication: You’ll never wonder how your pet is doing. I send regular: 📸 Photos 🎥 Videos 💬 Updates because I know they’re part of your family. Before Booking: Please tell me about: • Feeding routine • Favorite toys • Commands they know • Medications • Energy level • Potty schedule • Any fears or anxieties The more I know, the better experience I can create for your pet. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! ❤️🐾 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and even runs with energetic dogs are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether your pet needs lots of exercise or prefers a slower pace with plenty of affection, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, consistency, and lots of love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they experience as little disruption as possible while you’re away. I closely supervise pets, keep fresh water available at all times, follow feeding schedules carefully, and provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care, and I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing.

Julianna was nothing but amazing. She took great care of my three dogs and even spent some time walking and playing with them to help burn off energy. She communicated well by asking questions which showed she genuinely cared for my dogs rather than just earning a check. One of them had an accident throughout Julianna’s visit but she didn’t hesitate to help with clean up and I’m extremely grateful for that. I highly recommend using her and plan to do so again myself in the near future.

Riley did a great job for us while on vacation! We were very worried leaving our Frenchie alone for that length of time, but knowing Riley was there to take care of her and keep her company made it less stressful. We would definitely recommend her and use her services again!

Lily did a great job taking care of my fur babies! She sent me pictures with my babies. She sat in the yard and played with them. Gave them lots of love! Also, did a fantastic job keeping the pens and floor clean along with fresh bedding, food and water. I was anxious about having someone else take care of my babies but she eased my anxiety with how good she was with them. My babies were comfortable with her as well which made it even better. Definitely recommend!

Amanda is professional, personable, and reliable. I have never had anyone dog sit besides my mother and am new to this area- so I was a little aprehensive about a dog sitter, but having Amanda stop by a couple times a week helps out tremedously. She sends lots of pictures, and is very responsive. My dogs and I appreciate her visits...even my old dog Fiona, who is very hesitant of new people. Amanda is a fantastic dog sitter and I would recommend her services to anyone!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - West Reading

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in West Reading on Rover is $33.3 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,293 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across West Reading. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a West Reading stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Reading 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 Reading 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 Reading. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
