“Melissa was so clutch… came through for me re: walking my pit bc of a last minute trip. Dodger got the relief breaks he needed and she let me know how well behaved he was.”
“Tayma did a wonderful job walking Birdie when my mother was taking care of her for the weekend. Birdie got so excited whenever Tayma came to get her she practically jumped into her arms. We definitely recommend Tayma to help with your precious pups.”

About: Animals have always been a piece of my heart. I love every single breed of dogs. I’m always the one someone calls when they need a pet sitter. I care for the animals like no other. I have worked in the doggy daycare/ boarding industry for 2 years, I am a farm girl at heart. I have owned many animals including horses, goats, pigs, chickens, turkeys, & roosters! Right now I am unemployed since I had a cross country move. I am available all day everyday to sit with your pup, play, walk, whatever you would need me to do! I have my own Golden Retriever and Siberian Husky that loves to play. You will always catch my golden and I at the dog park. We love to play fetch!
About: I have had pets all my life and have cared for every shape, size and personality there is to come by whether that’s other people’s pets or my own. I can crate easily and have dealt with administering medications in elderly pets many times. I trim nails with no issue and I enjoy long walks or play time. I work part time in Collegeville, babysit on the side, and attend school in Pennsburg, so I don’t mind a little bit of a drive. I have no problem whatsoever stopping over to take care of your pet during a lunch break if ever necessary. I always leave room for during the day for bookings during the week, usually leaving me working at night, except for weekends. I always treat other peoples children or pets as I would my own, as a priority. I babysit very often and usually that includes pet care. I have watched dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and geckos. Safety means that while taking care of them both of us remain comfortable and relaxed in the presence of eachother. Also that they stay supervised even with their freedom.
“I was initially nervous to get a dog walker, as I have never done so before. We did our Meet & Greet and Tim was so nice. My dog, Minnie, immediately liked him and when he came inside my cat, Nyx, came right up to him with his tail straight up in a "Hello" - which was a big surprise because Nyx doesn't normally like strangers! He was accommodating when it came to putting on Minnie's booties because of the weather. Overall, he exceeded my expectations and will happily have him as our walker again!”
“Lana is amazing and it gave us such great comfort knowing she was taking care of our dog, Rocky, while being out of town! Awesome updates on what was going on and how Rocky was doing. Great communication and photos shared. Will absolutely book Lana again!”
About: I have experience pet sitting dogs and cats of all sizes and shapes! I work at a vet hospital and have experience working with different personalities in different environments. I am knowledgeable on medication and have experience medicating my own cats and dog. I have self taught training experience as well. I will take care of your fur babies like they are my own! I am currently working full-time 5am to 1pm M-F. I will have lots of afternoon availability for walks and to keep your fur babies company in their own home! I have 3 cats of my own and they are weary of other animals. I am more than willing to stay overnight at your house for pet sitting!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish for over 25 years and have experience with pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I grew up with Siberian Huskies and have spent my life around animals, both as a pet owner and caregiver. I provide attentive, dependable care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs! My experience includes walks, feeding, administering oral medications, playtime, companionship, photo updates, and monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or well-being while you’re away. In addition to pet care, I have experience maintaining freshwater aquariums, including water quality monitoring and tank care, as well as basic indoor plant care. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away! I have a flexible part-time work schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I enjoy staying active through walks and spending time with animals, so pet sitting and dog walking are a rewarding part of my routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and individual needs, from feeding schedules and walks to medications and favorite activities. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience while keeping owners updated with messages and cute photos! I make sure to treat every client’s home with respect and care.
“By the pictures alone, Ralph seems to have loved it. When we made it home, it was nice to know he was able to relieve himself while we were both unable to do so due to a strange glitch in our schedules. JEN WAS GREAT! Her communication was perfect, she was as very attentive and made me feel at ease from close to 100 miles away from home.”
“Rachael is amazing! She always goes above and beyond for our elderly dog. She is so kind and takes great care of our dog. We are so appreciative of everything she does! Thank you Rachael!”
About: As a TCHS Pickering Animal Science graduate, I have had experience running a dog day care, grooming facility, and provided dog training and training plans. I have experience working with dogs, cats, rodents, and chickens among other animals. I have interned a multiple veterinary hospitals as well a multiple equine facilities, the one focusing on the medical care of aged equines. I have experience with puppies, aged dogs and cats, as well as pets with special needs. My experience work at a vet hospital has made me comfortable with administering medications. Since my college classes are online and my work schedule is very flexible, I have the freedom to come pet sit or dog walk at any time! My top priority is making sure your pets are well cared for and loved. This includes but is not limited to specialized attention on your pet. In addition making sure your home stays clean and in the same condition is very important to me.
“Rachel was a pleasure. Phoebe can be a little quirky, but liked Rachel. Rachel was extremely professional and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby in her hands. I will use Rachel’s services again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’ve lived with dogs for as long as I can remember. Small, big, medium sized, I love them all! I’d love to take your dog on walks and to the park or just hang out with them. I want to spend time with a furry friend and get more involved in my community ❤️ I have lots of off days during the week, as I work weekends so this would be a great way to spend my time. My schedule varies so as long as I have notice I can let you know if I’m available. I’m looking more to walk dogs but can be available to care for pets. Always keeping the pets comfort and customers needs/expectations as priority!!
“Bri is a great dog walker! Highly recommended. She was very attentive to our dog (cockapoo), provided frequent updates for walks / feeding, and she is very punctual. We really appreciate how sweet she was with our dog. We look forward to booking Bri again.”

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Yerkes. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Yerkes.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Yerkes. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
