“Alexa's great!! She told me that Luna cuddled with her cat and got along well with her dog. I am appreciative that she was flexible with pickup and dropoff. Would definitely ask her again :)”


“Janette and her family are so sweet and obviously love taking care of dogs. They welcomed my puppy into their home right along side their adorable three dogs and three kids. He had tons of space to run around outside, a puppy pool to splash around in, and a safe place inside for his crate so he could get some sleep overnight. They sent me pictures and an update during his stay, and told me all about how he did when I picked him up. He came home tired, happy, and clean - what more could I ask for?”


About: My husband and absolutely love dogs. We have a loving spacious home for him to run around in. I am always watching my parents or siblings dog and it’s always a blast to do so! My husband and I both work from home, so we’re able to spend a lot of time with our dog throughout the day. We take him on walks totaling at least 2 miles every day and love getting outside with him whenever we can. We also make sure he gets plenty of playtime, attention, and exercise, and we enjoy taking him along with us on walks, errands, and adventures whenever possible. We have a large dog who has his own bedroom with a full-size bed, which he absolutely loves! We also have two dog beds downstairs so he has plenty of comfortable places to relax throughout the house. Our back porch has a long leash where he can safely spend some time outside and enjoy the fresh air. He is no in the crate, but we do have a large crate in the basement available if needed.
“Our little Pfeffer was well cared for and loved while she was with Sheryl. I received updates and pictures during her stay. Sheryl was understanding and flexible when we left a little later than planned. Pfeffer had plenty of snuggle time while we were away. I would definitely use her again.”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Toby! I felt like he was not only being looked after, but he had fun. Tina and Andrew really welcomed him into the family. We will definitely be relying on their services again! Cheers!”

“Gina cared for our dog, Charlie, for a week while we were on vacation. Everything from the meet and greet, to his stay went wonderfully. She is reliable and communicates well through everything. Charlie loved having the company of her dog and the other dogs she was watching at the time. We came home to a happy and tired pup! Would highly recommend Gina!”

“We were nervous about leaving our puppy, Ivy, overnight for 4 days, but Joel exceeded all of our expectations! From the start, Joel was very responsive, professional, and friendly. He sent us daily updates and pictures which really put our minds at ease. We knew Ivy was in good hands, getting lots of attention, daily walks, and playtime with Cash. We will definitely use Joel again in the future!”

“Corra had the best time with Dolly and her sons. She was well taken care of with plenty of walks and cuddles. Dolly also kept us updated with frequent pictures. Will definitely book Dolly again !!”

“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”

“Jean did an absolutely wonderful job in caring for our 13 year old Puggle. She sent updates and pictures during his overnight stay. Her home is VERY clean and completely set up for dog boarding. She’s not only knowledgeable about dog care but truly showed an interest in making sure our dog was comfortable and well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to request boarding with Jean in the future.”

“Julie and Caleb and their family are the best, they help me and my pup out so much even on a last minute call. They welcomed my pup like it was one of their own which we really liked. Will definitely be returning soon, thank you guys”


“Julie is very nice and as soon as you meet her, you'll feel comfortable with leaving your precious pup with her. She will gladly send you photos and let you know how your pup is doing. She was flexible with pickup and dropoff times, which was much appreciated! Will definitely use her again in the future :) thanks again!”

“Shawna took great care of Penny! Our dog can be reactive on walks, so Shawna’s fenced in yard was perfect and it was clear that Penny settled right in after being dropped off. Will definitely reach out again for future sitting needs!”

“Meagen was able to take Lorna at the last minute and handle a very anxious dog. Thank you so much Meagan. We really appreciate your flexibility and the care you took with Lorna. And the picture of her with other dogs was great!”

“Wenji was very kind, and her daughter absolutely loves dogs, so Nina seemed to have been loved and had a great time during her one night boarding. Wenji kept me updated on Nina’s status from time to time, and I would be happy to use her boarding service next time🥰”

“Amanda was amazing! I would 1000% recommend. She is/was awesome with correspondence the whole time we were away and was engaged enough with our girl to give regular updates which helped ease any worry while we were gone. I felt confident that she was well taken care of. Will absolutely reach out to her again.”

“We had our second stay with Jordynn and everything went great! She always provides lots of updates and pics and we always are at ease when our pups stay with her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Abbey Downs home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Abbey Downs.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Abbey Downs sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
