We would recommend Liceth to anyone who is looking for top quality care for their dog!”
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was in my 20s. I have crate and potty trained all my dogs. I have patience and compassion for dogs. I would often meet up with friends and family at house party gathering and dog park gatherings to socialize my dogs and to show them love, companionship, and that they are a member of the family not only a pet. I've kept and cared for dogs until there dying age and paid for there cremation. I am indeed a dog loving person. I am currently taking care of my mom who has dementia 24/7 and I am home with her all day. The only days I'm out the house is when my mom or myself have a doctor's appointment. The time I have during the day, I can do dog walks and drop by to feed and let your dog out to your yard. I currently have a chiwawa mix dog name Romeo and he is fed, taken out for walks and sleeps on my sofa everyday. He is encouraged to play, fetch and have treats as rewards. He is shown love everyday and has all his shots and vet visits up to date.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for family & friends over the years, and I’m looking to pet-sit/house-sit more often by using Rover! I have experience with dogs and cats. I mostly stay in the home while the owner is away to maintain stability for the pet, while owners are away on trips. I love spending time with animals and snapping funny or cute photos of them to share with their owners while they’re away! I’ll take good care of your fur-baby and show them lots of love! I’m available for walks, feedings, potty breaks and play time for individual days or several days at a time! I work full time M-F but can work remotely from your home and take breaks! I believe that pets are most comfortable when we stick to their schedules, so I do my best to keep to them! I also enjoy texting photos and updates to their owner.
“Samantha was respectful, followed instructions well and made sure my sweet girl was taken care of and shown affection. She even helped bring all of my delivered packages inside. 10/10 recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Reading
We had a wonderful experience with Jenni! She was incredibly attentive, caring, and great with our dogs. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about making sure they were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book with her again!
Cera is absolutely wonderful with our cats! This is our second time booking her, and she has been fantastic both times. She’s reliable, attentive, and so easy to communicate with. She sends plenty of updates and photos, which we really appreciate, and it’s clear that she genuinely enjoys spending time with our cats. She even takes the time to play with our one cat using her favorite laser pointer! We never have to worry about them when we’re away because we know Cera is taking great care of them. We’re so grateful to have someone we trust completely and will definitely continue booking with her!
This was my first time using a sitter instead of friends or family, so I was pretty nervous leaving my hyperthyroid cat who needs daily medication and has become very picky with food. Maggie was fantastic—she followed my notes closely, was patient with his routine, and made sure he was comfortable and eating. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such attentive and capable hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her, especially for pets with extra needs.
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!
We are so thankful for Andrew’s thorough and conscientious service. His availability on extremely short notice rescued us from a huge bind. Our two cats are friendly and affectionate to us but always afraid to interact with visitors or anyone they don’t know. Andrew was a notable exception to this tendency. His very relaxed and kind demeanor put our cats at ease from their first meeting. We appreciated the many photos that Andrew shared which clearly confirmed that our cats enjoyed his visits and were completely relaxed around him. Andrew followed all of our instructions precisely and provided us with helpful feedback throughout his time of service. Our time away was truly enhanced knowing that our cats were in such good hands with Andrew. We will definitely use Andrew in the future and strongly recommend him for your next pet sitting needs.
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!
Stella took such great care of my rabbit! The photos and videos gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear he loved spending time with her. She treated him like one of her own and went above and beyond in so many thoughtful ways. I’d absolutely book with her again!
Maria went above and beyond this time to care for my babies. They love her and got lots of playtime as usual, but this time my house was dealing with an ant infestation. She notified me so that I could call pest control and helped spray and wipe away the ants she could see in the meantime before they were able to drop by. I was very anxious about the situation and she continued to provide updates and let me know that their food and main play areas were safe

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 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.
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
- 94% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
