“We boarded our 60lb Golden Doodle with Kathy for 7 nights. She was very well looked after, happy and healthy when we returned. kathy is great to work with and sent updates and was very careful to ask questions and follow suggestions of our dogs care. She's also a lovely lady and good communicator”
“Melinda was amazing with her updates and communication and I will definitely be boarding my dog with her in the future! I was nervous at first because my beagle Oscar is timid and has never stayed at someone’s home before, but he slowly came out of his shell while he was with Melinda and he was obviously well taken care of the two weeks she had him. I absolutely recommend Melinda and have already passed on her information to a couple of friends who are looking for pet sitting in the future. Thanks Melinda, you made Oscar feel at home and I’m glad he stayed with you!”
“Johanny and her family did a great job caring for my fur baby! Johanny was super flexible; she kept in touch with me and sent me pictures/videos. I’d recommend and would love to have Tucker back in Johanny’s care again!”
“David is Wonderful, pets , sitter He care with attention to details, follow up , professionalism, and love . We were gone for a week and he gives the best care to my two dogs . He updated us with a beautiful pictures .. thank you David”
“Highly, highly, highly recommend Joan! From the moment I dropped off my cat I was completely at ease because he immediately made himself comfortable, which he typically doesn’t do. Joan was great, and sent a lot of pictures and made me feel secured with leaving my baby with her! Thank you so much, Joan, and again I highly recommend booking with Joan!!”
“Tiffany was great! She had a huge backyard my doggo could run all around in. She sent lots of pictures of my dog and they clearly showed my dog enjoying herself. She was very communicative and quick to respond. Would highly recommend her and hope to book with her in the future!”
“Ana did a great job taking care of our pups! We were a little nervous because it was our first time using the service but she made it easy and kept us updated with messages and pictures!”
“Elaine was amazing! She kept me updated on Oreo’s care. She sent me photos. I felt happy to know that my dog was in great hands. Also, she had open availability. Which is great when you plan last minute trips. Highly recommend!!!”
“This was my first time having my dogs stay outside the house, and having four wasn’t easy to find someone. Brittany was very excited to watch the boys has a big fenced in backyard, sent daily updates on them along with daily photos. Will definitely be booking with Brittany again and highly recommend her!”
“Marleny was wonderful with Milo! She kept me updated, sent photos, was quick to respond to any questions or messages. She was great at finalizing the plans when I first contacted her. Milo loved the fenced yard & lots of play time. She was an amazing sitter! Will definitely contact her in the future :)”
“Doug and his family were so welcoming to our pup and took the best care of her! They helped her fit right into the family, and updated us all the time about the fun things they were doing. Our dog can be a little shy at the beginning, but they were very patient and helped her out of her shell. We will definitely use their sitting services again, and are so thankful for their care and attentiveness!”
About: Hi! My name is Aniya, and I've been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with two dogs of my own, which taught me from an early age the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing loving care to our furry family members. Over the years, I've had experience caring for both young, energetic puppies and senior dogs who require a gentler, more attentive approach. I'm comfortable adapting to each dog's unique personality, routine, and needs to help them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. I also have experience caring for a dog with epilepsy and allergies, so I understand the importance of following care instructions carefully, administering medications when needed, and being attentive to changes in a dog's behavior or health. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I genuinely love spending time with them. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having a companion nearby, I'll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and give you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I am a licensed esthetician and work on a commission-based schedule, which allows me to have a great deal of flexibility. As long as I am given at least one week's notice for requested dates and times, I can typically accommodate your pet care needs. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and committed to providing the best possible care for your pets. Your dog's comfort and safety are my top priorities. I live in a quiet townhouse community with plenty of open green space for walks, potty breaks, and outdoor time. While the area is not fenced, all outdoor activities will be closely supervised and dogs will remain safely leashed at all times. My home is pet-friendly, calm, and free of other pets, allowing your dog to receive my full attention without the stress of unfamiliar animals. I live with my mom and a male roommate, and all members of the household are adults but I will be the only person caring for your pup in the household. There are no children in the home, creating a peaceful environment where your pup can relax and feel comfortable. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a cozy place to unwind, I'll provide plenty of love, attention, and care to help them feel right at home while you're away.
“Reshma & Kangan take care of my cavapoo, as if she were their own dog. Walks twice a day and invitations to the couch. Lots of pictures too. Rosa has been there many times and loves it. It gives me such peace of mind that when we do go somewhere the dog can't, they are there or her.”
“We were so happy with Bianka! She took such great care of our dog Copper. Copper is older and can be a little anxious but he was right at home with Bianka. We received pictures and texts about Copper while he was there. I would absolutely use Bianka again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Thank you both so much for the peace of mind and the communication & check-ins. The peace of mind that I had while Kaya was with you during the last few days was so very much appreciated!! She'll see you next week. 😊”
“Leila was very nice, friendly and accomodating to our furbabies needs. Our babies didnt want to come home at all because of so much fun they are having with them. Everyday she sends pictures of updates. She was easy to communicate with and we didnt have any issues at all. We felt comfortable leaving our furbabies with her and family. We will book her again next time. Thank you Leila for taking care of our dogs. i highly recommend your service! :)”
“Kim is awesome with dogs and was amazing with my 9 year old girl Kayli! I never felt comfortable leaving Kayli but I know my she felt right at home with the pictures and video updates I got on a daily basis. I would recommend her 100% and look forward to boarding with her again in the future. If you’re looking for a boarder who really cares for the well-being and comfort of your dog she is the one!”
“Amber was amazing, She kept in contact with me and updated me with photos of my babies though out their stay. They seemed so happy and made new friends ! I will definitely be using ambers services in the near future So happy I found someone I can trust ?”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Apps
If Rover allowed us to give 100 stars, we’d give every single one to Deanna. Wimble isn’t “just our dog.” He’s our family, our best friend, our service dog, and one of the stars of our Amazon Prime TV series The Ghost Finders. Because of that, trusting someone else with his care has never been something we take lightly. Then we found Deanna. From the moment she came into Wimble’s life, it was obvious she had a truly special gift. She has an incredible ability to connect with dogs in a way that’s difficult to describe. Wimble absolutely adores her, and seeing the excitement on his face whenever he sees her tells us everything we need to know. Deanna doesn’t just care for Wimble, she loves him. She has become his trainer, his handler on set, his biggest cheerleader, and someone we trust completely. Whether she’s working with him, taking him on adventures, or simply giving him affection and reassurance, she always treats him as if he were her own. As television producers, our schedules can be hectic and unpredictable, but we’ve never once worried when Wimble is with Deanna. That’s one of the greatest gifts anyone can give a pet owner: complete peace of mind. Her professionalism, reliability, patience, compassion, and genuine love for animals are second to none. She consistently goes above and beyond, and we honestly can’t imagine a better person to have in Wimble’s life. Deanna has become more than a Rover sitter to us. She’s become part of Team Wimble and part of our extended family. Thank you, Deanna, for loving our boy as fiercely as we do, for helping him grow, and for always treating him with such kindness and respect. We are more grateful than words can express. Anyone lucky enough to have Deanna care for their dog should consider themselves incredibly fortunate. She is simply the very best. ❤️🐾

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 Apps 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 Apps.
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 Apps 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.
