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: 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: Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. My love for pets is what sparked me to enter as the wonderful world of pet sitting. I love making new pet buddies, and want to ensure they are as happy as can be. I couldn't imagine my life without them. They bring so much joy and happiness as I cherish the attention and love every dog big or small, requires thank you and I look forward to creating a friendship with you and bonding with your pet. I’m great for holidays always available
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: I have lifelong experience caring for pets and currently own a very energetic mini goldendoodle puppy, providing daily exercise, training, grooming, and attentive care to meet his needs!! I currently work a full-time teaching job and am looking to provide care in the evenings on weekdays, weekend care & summer care when the time comes! I have the friendliest mini golden doodle who loves to play, as well as flexible services in your home when you need the best pet care.
“What a lovely experience. From our initial meeting that gave us confidence, to the great communication throughout, we had peace of mind that our guy was being well cared for. The photographs and updates were so appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Clare.”
“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: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats all my life and cannot imagine life without them! Family and friends have relied on me to check in with their pets while away, and it always puts a smile on my face! I currently have one dog (mutt) and my sister has 2 (Vizsla and Weimaraner)! I’m currently in my second year of PA school, so my schedule is busy, but I am willing to work with you to help out when I can! Weekends work best for me. I am able to walk dogs and come for check ins! My goal is to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible while their beloved owner is away. I can easily feed and provide water to them, clean the litter box or yard as needed, take for walks and potty breaks, and of course play with them! If the yard is not fenced in, I will be sure to have your pup on a leash. I will also be sure to closely follow any specific instructions given.
“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!!”
“Amber did a wonderful job looking after our four cats. She was so pleasant to work with, was prompt, organized and followed directions well. You could tell she cared about the cats and that they were doing well. We can't thank her enough and hope to have her care for the kitties again!”
About: I have taken care of other friends dogs including senior dogs. I currently own a two year old black lab mix named Atlas. I love walking dogs and would love the opportunity to meet yours! During the school year, I am currently available 8:30-5 most days during the week. Boarding is also available in the evenings and on the weekends. Although I do not have a fenced in yard, there is plenty of space to walk in my neighborhood. I also have one dog who is friendly with other dogs. I am comfortable crating dogs when needed.
“Brenda was very responsive to my new Rover request, and I've not used the system before. She came to visit the dog and me quite quickly after the request. She is great with the dog and leaves me notes and photos in the app. She is clearly a very experienced pet sitter, as I could tell by her questions for me, as well as her interaction with the dog.”
About: Ever since I was a little girl I had dogs in my life! I grew up with two little west highland white terriers who were the most energetic loving dogs I could ask for as a kid. Later we welcomed our golden-doodle into our family who has protected us and made us laugh everyday! He’s now 10 years old! For about six years dog sat for a neighbor who had a boxer and English bulldog. I dog walked and house sat for three summers for a goldendoodle and for three years dog sat for lab/mutt mix, two pugs and a cat. I also take care of my sisters two Rhodesian ridgebacks one who is 6 years old and one 5 month old as well as my other sisters golden retriever who is 5 months old. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I remember and every day they show me what it’s like to be loved. I am taking some time off before starting Physician Assistant school, so I have a good amount of time throughout the week to take care of your pets! I am very in tune with my dogs needs at home and love just spending time with whether it’s relaxing in the couch, going for walks or sitting in the grass. I understand some dogs may need to be crated or if there is no fenced in yard, they need to be leashed when outside. I can accommodate any need for your pets in your home!
About: I'm an avid animal lover and have cared for pets most of my life. My German Shepard pup (17 months) is my best friend. We hike, walk, socialize at the dog park, swim, play and pretty much doing everything together. I've done dog walking, overnight pet sitting and drop in visits for the last 7 or so years. I can provide references and would love to get to know your fur babies. I currently work full time in the Collegeville area. When I'm not working I'm with my pup enjoying as much of the outdoors as possible. My availability is a bit limited currently to nights and weekends. I enjoy playing outside and can find fun things to do inside. Some animals prefer being inside. I will take the time to get to know your pet and care for them as if they were my own. I'm happy to change or clean litter, puppy pads and clean up accidents that sometimes happen. I will follow directions for food, treats and medicine needed as well. Every animal has different needs and I'd be happy to get to know yours.

I've been the go to sitter for friends, family, and neighbors, ensuring their beloved pets are happy, fed, and entertained while they're away. My experience includes everything from energetic puppies needing training to gentle seniors requiring extra attention. My current work schedule is limited to weekends, allowing me to dedicate ample time to your beloved animals with a highly flexible availability for ensured good care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Reading
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!

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 .

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.

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.
