“Another successful stay with Megan and Vincent! It was Elsie's and Harper's second time and they are already booked for three nights next weekend. I love getting the pictures and videos while I'm away! Once they walked through the gate into the backyard during drop off, they didn't even look back, not worried at all about being left :).”
“Finn had another wonderful stay with Melanie! We loved the picture & video updates and felt at ease while we were away. My dog seems very comfortable at her house and loves playing with her pup!”
“We were very pleased to have our dog stay with Whitney. We appreciated the updates which kept us assured our dog was doing well. We look forward to working with Whitney again!”
“She was wonderful with my puppy! I was worried since it was going to be the first sleepover for him since adopting him, but after meeting her I knew he was in good hands. Super thankful that everything went great and will totally go with her again!”
“McDuff stayed with Karen for 9 days. We received regular updates and reports on how he was adjusting to his surroundings. While we were gone, Karen sent photos and video showing McDuff’s interactions with other dogs at her home. She bathed him as he got really muddy while he stayed with her. When we picked him up, he was happy and content—glad to see us, but also he was still full of play with his new friends. Highly recommend!”
“Cynthia and her Husband Lance were welcoming and willing to help us out last minute. They took really good care of of dog and made him feel like home. Would 100% recommend them! Thank you again!”
“Randi and her family were amazing with our dog and treated him like their own. She was responsive and sent regular pictures and updates. We will definitely use her services again.”
“This was my first time using Rover but now won’t be the last! Briana & Isaiah took great care of my pup for a weekend with overnight boarding. They asked questions and took notes of any special requests. She got plenty of play time and walks with the kids and other dogs, and I was sent some pictures and updates throughout the weekend.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better Sitter for Habibi while I was doing business nearby. Emma is a true professional who deeply cares for dogs. She also has a gorgeous big yard that just screams out for having a dog running around in it. Not a big fan of business piece, but I look forward to the next opportunity to have Habibi stay with Emma.”
“It was the first time we leave our dog here in the Usa...and we couldn't choose better!! Vicky and all her family were amazing with Hope...she sent us a lot of photos and video...and kept us updated with everything they did during the day...so we could enjoy our trip at best!!”
“Melissa was a perfect fit for our pup. Her two dogs are wonderful, and our dog had a great time. I’m not even sure she missed us!! Would definitely have Melissa watch our dog in the future.”
“My dog has had the same sitter for 14 years, so I was concerned about how he would adapt to a new person and setting. Grace was wonderful with him. She followed his schedule and routine. When I picked him up, he was relaxed and happy. Grace kept me informed about how he was doing with messages and pictures. I will definitely use Grace again.”
“We absolutely love Geosselyn! She took care of our cat over our Hawaii vacaction for about a week, gave him all his meds without trouble, and gave him his own little room and are and tower to play on. She also had cameras on him which was nice, and took pictures that she sent to us to relive our stress! Couldn’t be any happier honestly”
“Our dog Levi had the best time! Amy and her family were so loving to our boy and kept us very well updated! Absolutely will be sending him back to play and stay again! Grateful for all they did!”
“Angelita is 10/10! Her care of our Boston terrier was superb. Communications around our reservation was seamless and pleasant. When our travel was delayed, Angelita was flexible with our drop off time - and pick up time. The outdoor space is perfect for pets and there were a few other puppies for Lucky to play with! We saw multiple pictures of her over the 24 hours we were away. When we picked Lucky up, Angelita even had a gift baggy for us!! She had disinfected our dogs bed and washed her bowls. You can’t ask for better than Angelita. Your pet will be in great hands.”
“10 Stars for Betsy and Ron who provide the best home away from home for our Coco! We're so happy to have had her there multiple times now, so she knows that this is her happy place when we are away. So many thanks to them for the field trips, the walks, the play and the love they give her!”
“We had a great experience! She was very attentive and kept us updated with pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She was easy to reach and always responded quickly to messages. We would definitely book with her again!”

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 Ailston 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 Ailston.
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 Ailston 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.
