“We had a great experience and will definitely be boarding again!! Easy pick up and drop off, great communication with daily picture updates, and our pup LOVED the doggie door!!”
“I am very grateful for how understanding and accommodating Michael is. He is very compassionate and professional, and knew how to handle both me and my dog. My dog had never been boarded before and had very rarely been away from home for any extended period of time, so she was very nervous and I was very neurotic. He was very reassuring and my dog had a wonderful time with him with zero issues. Thank you Michael for everything you do!”
“My experience boarding our pup Willy with Megan and her family was wonderful. Several weeks before our boarding and before I even confirmed the booking, Megan invited me to visit and make sure our pup would be comfortable or a good fit. Only once it seemed like it was going to be good for all of us did move forward. Willy stayed for a week. Megan was not only attentive to his usual routine but kept us updated with photos and notes about how he was feeling (he gets anxiety over storms). I really made us feel good about our decision to try Rover for the first time and Megan in particular. We'd definitely do it again. Thank you, Megan!”
“My dog got along great with hers and her family, kept me updated on everything and in the loop with how he was doing, and super flexible and took my last minute request!”
“Debbie & Adam are amazing, we were super hesitant to leave our baby with anyone and are so happy we found them. This was our little mans first time being away from us, ever, and they were absolutely great with Murphy. They checked in with us and sent pics and videos of him throughout his stay which as crazy puppy parents helped keep our mind at ease. I would absolutely recommend Debbie and Adam!”
“Zach and his family were amazing, stayed in contact the entire trip, sent pictures and were extremely kind! I think Fenrir was actually a bit sad to go at the end. I would 100% recommend his services to anyone and everyone, definitely at the top of my list for sitters!”
“Dana was great! I needed a sitter at the last second and she was able to watch Colbie with no problem. She sent lots of pictures of her during her stay, and treated her just like one of her own dogs. I could tell that Colbie received lots of love and attention and was very happy. She got fresh chicken mixed with her food for dinner every night, and was even allowed to bring her favorite toy home with her. I will definitely be booking with Dana again in the future!”
“This was the first time I took Josie to stay with Lisa. She had so much fun and loved staying with Lisa. I knew Josie was comfortable when Lisa said she followed her everywhere.”
“I have tried another local, highly recommended boarding place. My dogs would come home traumatized. I went on a search for a new place that would show patience and love towards my dogs, as my dogs do not trust people quickly. Christina and Daniel meet that requirement. From the get-go, they showed the extra patience and love towards my dogs. Christina & Daniel were very good at sending updates and pictures of the dogs. I could see from the photos that my dogs were happy. They were very good at responding to my questions, which gave me peace of mind to enjoy my vacation. I highly recommend Christina & Daniel. This is my new favorite boarding place for my dogs.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Monica and her family while Scotch stayed with them for 10 days. From the very beginning, it was clear that Scotch was in caring and capable hands. Monica kept us updated regularly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Scotch came back happy, relaxed, and well cared for—always the best sign of a great boarding experience. It’s evident that Monica treats every pet like part of her own family. We truly appreciate the warmth, attention, and love she provided. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Monica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring home boarding option, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future. I am sure Scotch misses you Monica 😊❤️”
“Joni and her family are lovely. Our dog is very shy of new people, but Joni was a kind and patient caregiver for him while we were gone for 5 days. We were able to do a meet and greet beforehand. She communicates well, with quick responses, pictures and updates. We feel very comfortable leaving our guy with Joni and her family.”
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and leaving our dogs for the weekend so we weren’t sure what to expect. She made everything so easy - sending pictures and videos throughout the day and keeping us updated on how the dogs were doing. Our pups especially loved the fenced-in backyard! We highly recommend her and will definitely book again.”

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
89% of Avella sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Avella landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Avella 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 Avella.
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 Avella 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.
