“HIGHLY recommend. Came home to a really sweet note with treats for the lil dude and got daily cute cat pics throughout the week. Never used a sitter before and was nervous but Cara made it so easy and Chewie had a blast!”

About: Hi! My name is Dante and I absolutely love dogs. I do not treat this as a job but as a privilege to take care of pets. I have always had a pet in my household, so I am very comfortable with dogs. I am young and promise I will have just as much energy as your dog does. I am very good at butt scratches and belly rubs. I will be prepared for any situation and I am very easy to contact. I understand plans get altered and I am flexible with changing schedules. I will treat your dog as I treat mine and make sure everything is done to the best of my ability. I hope you allow me to make your dog’s day the absolute best I can. Thank you
“Matthew was great. I reached out on shorter notice and Matthew was eager to help which was a relief. He was very professional setting up a quick meet and greet and provided numerous photos and updates about the drop-ins. I would absolutely recommend Matthew and would rehire in the future without hesitation.”
About: Been doing this since I was 18! Giving genuine care and attention to your fur babies isn’t taken lightly when I am trusted with them! I work part time right now and have a very flexible schedule! Willing to work out a schedule with you as well! Here to help you and your pets needs 😊 I provide in-home pet sitting at your home, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I’m respectful of your home, follow your instructions carefully, and will keep you updated while you’re away with messages and photos!
“Marcelle took wonderful care of my cats while I was away. She is very responsible and follows through on all directions. So thankful to have such a great pet sitter close by!”
About: Hey everyone! My name is Holbert. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, from Yorkies and Shih Tzus to Saint Bernards, and I’m just as happy spending time with cats too. I’m a law student, but outside of school I really enjoy being around animals, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient with shy or nervous pets, playful with the energetic ones, and I’ll probably send you way too many funny pictures while you’re gone. I’m also very respectful of your home and your pet’s routine, so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands 😊 My schedule is pretty structured during the week, with work on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 to 5 and classes on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9 to 4. Fridays through the weekend, though, I have much more flexibility and can really dedicate my time to walks, drop ins, playtime, and hanging out with your pets. I also do my best to work pet care around my weekday schedule whenever possible, so your pet still gets the attention and consistency they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I try to keep things as comfortable and familiar for them as possible. I follow, feeding schedules, walking routines, house, rules, and any special instructions you leave for me, also making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m patient with pets who need a little extra time to warm up, and I always pay attention to their personality and comfort level. In a client‘s home, I’m also very respectful of the space. I will always leave things clean and cared for, just as I found them, if not better.
About: What sets me apart from others is I'll never change from being kind. Kind is where it is and will always. dogs come first in my eyes I can work on your schedule. I love being punctual. If you need a sitter I will try to be there when requested. Don't believe me try it out I will only do as told. I will never go out of boundaries. What you say goes. I WILL keep your dog or cat on your schedule
About: I have several years of experience working in an animal hospital as a veterinary technician, where I cared for pets with a variety of needs and learned how to recognize changes in behavior, health, and comfort levels. My veterinary background has given me the skills and confidence to provide safe, attentive care, including administering medications and noticing when a pet may not be feeling their best. Outside of work, I’m a proud pet parent to two doggies and two wonderful cats, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I treat every animal like they are my own—with patience, compassion, and plenty of love. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, medication support, or simply a caring companion while you’re away, I’m committed to providing dependable and personalized care.🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work remotely full-time from 1:30 PM–10:00 PM, which gives me plenty of availability in the mornings and early afternoons to dedicate time to animals. I would love to use that time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve. I’m a responsible and caring pet owner myself, and I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets. I enjoy creating a calm, comfortable environment and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment where they feel secure. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), walks, playtime, and any special preferences they have. I treat every home and pet with respect, taking the time to build trust and make sure each animal feels comfortable in my care. I pay close attention to their behavior, surroundings, and needs to help prevent any safety concerns.
About: I’m comfortable around all dogs big and small. I’ve owned and taken care of them my whole life. I’m also currently volunteering at the spca. I am currently working from home and have a flexible schedule so I’m able to take care of your pets during the day and after the average work day. I look forward to feeding, playing, and accommodating your pets needs. I’m flexible and I look forward to being a dependable source for your family.
“Nathan was great! His visits were right on time and he even spent some extra time with out cat. Our cat had some litter box issues so I really appreciated that he cleaned everything up and kept me informed about what was going on. Highly recommend!”
About: My beloved pet Cookie just passed away at age 18. I gave her plenty of love and care and will do the same for your dog/s. Can’t wait to snuggle with your pet and treat him or her like Family. I live in the Garnet Valley School District and have lots of time to give your dog happy hellos, soft snuggles and loyal Friendship. I have experience in letting dogs out from at their home and taking dogs for walks when owners are away on vacation. I love making dogs happy with kind words, food/treats, sitting next to them and rubbing their belly. My home is perfect for boarding because I live in a quiet, traffic free area and it safe to walk or board your adorable pet. I also have a gated deck to enjoy fresh air when the weather is nice. If your preference is to leave your furry friend in your home, I would gladly come out to your home to look after your pet/s in their familiar environment.
“Marie did an amazing job checking in on our five cats while my fiancée and I were away on vacation. She sent us detailed updates and amazing pictures of our fur children! Thank you for caring for our kitties like they were your own. :)”
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a little girl. My family has fostered animals growing up, showing me the true meaning of giving someone love even if it’s just temporarily. Being your pets home away from home is important to me and guaranteed! I am available when ever needed my schedule is completely freed up! Let me know what days you need and I will get right back to you! The pets I babysit for are my first priority. Every single one of their needs will always be met and is the most important part of my day.
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life (Rottweilers, Standard Poodles, and Shih Tzu). I have cared for my bunny rabbit for 10 years and my senior shih tzu for 3. I love animals and treat them kindly and respectfully. Your pet will be safe and happy with me! I am available before 8:00 am, midday, and after 5:30 PM for dog walking and drop in visits. I look forward to caring for your pet! <3 I live in a two bedroom, non-smoking apartment. The apartment complex is dog friendly. There is a fenced dog park and large yard for walks. My 10 year old shih tzu uses steps to get on the couch so those are available as well.
“Thankful for Roberta’s visit! She provided a great summary of her visit and good pics! She was flexible and willing to help us out despite a last minute request. Will definitely hire her again!”

Great experience. I have two dogs that cannot get along and are isolated from one another. Don’t hate me but they are rescues. Z managed to feed them let them out with no incidence. Z was respectful of my home and I never let a person here without me. Z took care of my babies like Z’s own. Highly recommend.
Lily was so responsible and sweet with our dogs. We couldn't have left our precious pups in better hands and she was so conscientious in feeding them, walking them, taking photos, and even administering medication. We were so reassured by her responsible and thoughtful updates and hope that even more people will get to experience her wonderful service in future!
Marissa is exceptional she took our 7 day appointment last minute and was very understanding and communicative. We were very skeptical at first using a service one to watch our puppy and two having someone coming in our home while we weren’t there. Marissa communicated every day as well as sent pictures. She definitely went over and beyond with our puppy “Buddy”, She bathed him, took care of his play pen area as we would. Im very thankful for Marissa and clearly Buddy enjoyed her as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodacres is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $29 per visit. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 8,805 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodacres. 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.
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 Woodacres. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 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.
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.
