“Cathy was great! She communicated well and was really good with my babies. She respected my home and kept it tidy. I highly recommend her and will be using her again soon!”
About: I’ve had a love for dogs since I was little, one of my first books that I read as a child was about dogs, and have cared for 4 dogs in the last 11 years. I had a Jack Russell terrier, Yorkshire terrier & toy poodle, who have passed in their old age. I currently have an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix who is 2. My dogs, as well as other dogs, are well behaved around me and love being in my presence. I am available any day of the week, so availability is never an issue. I love caring for dogs & playing with dogs as it brings me and the dogs happiness. You will love that I care for the dogs’ health, safety, and happiness.
“Quanece was great with my 4 month old puppy, J’Rome! She’s patient and well experienced. She sent lots of updates and picture/videos throughout the day. I would highly recommend!”
“This was the first time we ever used the service for a week while we were away for vacation. From the first meeting with Alexis we knew Charlie would be in great hands. He had taken to her instantly and it was obvious her love for dogs. She kept us well informed throughout the week with text messages and plenty of pictures. Alexis was very respectful of our home and we returned to it as when we left it. It was such peace of mind knowing that Charlie was able to stay in his comfortable environment and keep his familiar schedule while we were away. Alexis was mindful and wanted to make sure Charlie kept to his familiar daily routine. She was an absolute pleasure to have worked with and we have no regrets. We will most definitely use her again in our next need . We would highly recommend her to anyone needed dog sitting. Thank you Alexis for taking such good care of Charlie!! The experience was more than we expected!!”
“Madison!!! Can’t say enough great things about her! She was the first person I hired off of this site and she was absolutely awesome! Everything went smoothly! She was so good to my pets and I felt so safe having her stay in our home. She’s very down to earth and you can tell she loves animals. I would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HER to literally anyone and everyone!!”
“Julia was very pleasant to meet. Our dog took to her right way. She sent us pictures and updates on how she was doing. She was anxious and Julia said she gave her hugs and snuggles to calm her down. I will definitely ask her to dog sit again.”
“Oliva was punctual, communicative, and attentive to Leo's needs throughout the weekend! We would book Olivia again in a heartbeat — she made our anxious boy feel comfortable.”
“Rhonda is great with our dog Finn, he can be energetic and Rhonda handled it great. She communicated well- sent pics and gave updates throughout the stay! I’d highly recommend to anyone who wants to know their dog is being given all the attention and care!”
“My husband and I would 100% trust our dog with David. We have an anxious pup and was worried about strangers meeting him but from the first meet, our dog was very comfortable with David. He gave punctual updates while we were gone and the visit went smoothly. When my husband and I came back home, we found a very nice handwritten card, chocolates, and even a dog toy from David! A very nice gesture and the kind of generous person we would invite back to our home to care for our pup. Thanks for your help David!!”
About: Hi!! I am an animal lover with hands on experience caring for my own dog and cat. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving them attention, or simply keeping them company. I’m responsible, caring, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable knowing your pets are safe, happy and well cared for when you are away. I have a very flexible schedule. I am available weekdays and weekends. If you need to extend the days, it would not be an inconvenience. I am available for house sitting only and I am not able to board pets in my own home. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and treat them with the same love and attention I give my own
“I could tell our two big dogs were well taken care of and loved. Brandi gave our one dog all his meds and even worked on our young one with learning commands. She took excellent care of the dogs and the house.”
“Kathy was great at keeping us informed and sending pictures while we were away. It helped ease my mind to see our dog was happy and doing well in our absence. This was the first time we had a sitter come and stay in our home while we were away. It worked out great and would do it again.”
About: My apartment complex has a side yard with plenty of space throughout it. I have a couple dog parks nearby, a courtyard and neighborhoods within a few feet that are all dog friendly. I usually let the dogs roam freely in the apartment. I am currently working remotely so taking frequent breaks wouldn’t be a issue. I am able to show the dogs lots of attention throughout the day. I have experience working with special needs dogs, older dogs and puppies. My expertise allows me to care for each dog as if it were my own. My schedule is extremely flexible, giving me more time for your pups! I am available for boarding during the week and some weekends. I can stop pass and do walks and feeding for your pups during the week at anytime. I have a gated yard and my own friendly dog to keep your dog company. I also have 3 dog parks nearby to take the dogs to walk and play.
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and have spent the last 5 years informally caring for pets belonging to self and friends. I don't have any pets at the moment and I would love care for yours. I know how to read an animal's body language, stick to their routine, and give them the attention they need, whether that's a long walk, playtime, or just quiet company on the couch. I treat every pet like my own: consistent feeding schedules, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection. I'm equally comfortable with dogs and cats and happy to accommodate specific care instructions, medications, or quirks your pet may have. I'm mostly flexible right now since I'm not working full-time, so I have plenty of time to give your pets attention throughout the day and evening. I can accommodate daily walks, drop-ins, or boarding on short notice, and I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine, feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific habits they're used to I live in an apartment in Center City Philadelphia, so most of my care happens through walks and outdoor time rather than a private yard, and I'm comfortable working in your home as well. Wherever I'm caring for your pet, I keep a close eye on them at all times, follow feeding and medication instructions exactly, and make sure doors and leashes are secure so there's no risk of an escape.
“Ashiera was great house sitting for us and took great care of both of our Huskies. They seemed very comfortable & happy with her here. Will definitely use her again if/when we need them cared for again. Thanks Ashiera!”
“Rob and Mabel got along well. Rob provided daily updates and was last-minute flexible when our end date changed! He even grabbed the mail for us as a courtesy. Rob left our home in the same condition it was in when we left. It was nice to come back to that. I We are happy to recommend him for your pet sitting needs. Mabel also gives five licks of approval!”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Wolfert walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wolfert maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Wolfert 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
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.
