“Another wonderful experience! I rebooked because Obi always comes home happy and well cared for, which gives us so much peace of mind. It’s clear that he is treated with lots of love and attention while he’s there. We truly appreciate how comfortable you make both him and us feel. We wouldn’t hesitate to bring him back again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Cooper had a great week with Beth and her family! He was pampered and cuddled. We got a picture or video every day. We had a great vacation knowing Cooper was also having a great week! We would highly recommend Beth for your pet!”
“Boomers stay with Andrew was a great experience. I have never left my Dog with anyone before. Had a work assignment that required Travel. Andrew and Family took care of Boomer and will use the service again”
“One of our neighbors recommended Grace to us when our regular sitter stopped boarding. Our dog is very shy and introverted when it comes to people she doesn’t know, and she took to Grace really well. We will definitely book with her again!”
“We moved to Lancaster recently and were anxious about finding a good and reliable dog sitter. We were so happy with how she cared for our dog in her home and won’t hesitate to use her again. Highly recommend!”
“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?”
“Melody took excellent care of our Ziggy! Ziggy was very hapoy hanging out with Melody. Ziggy is content to have interesting walks, to eat all her food and snacks and to sleep. Melody did well with all of that. I would highly recommend her. 🙂”
“Absolutely wonderful pet care! Tanya and David were extremely accommodating to our two large dogs (rottweiler, belgian malinois). They have specialized diets that werent an issue and we received updates throughout our entire trip. You could tell they really care about your fur buddy just as much as you do. Definitely will be rebooking in the future.”
“Ganesh did a great job taking care of my dog Luna for over 2 weeks when I was on vacation. She's happy and looks great, unlike another dog I had that I left in a shelter a few years ago. He provided frequent updates and pictures so I didn't have to worry about her. I highly recommend him for your dog sitting needs.”
“Cynthia treated Lilo like a princess while I was away! Walks on her beautiful property, time near the water, and made sure she felt at home. She was communicative, punctual, and made sure to send me lots of updates.”
“Our boy Indy had the best weekend playing with pups, horses and kiddos! We had daily pup check in’s and that definitely helped us be at ease that he was in great hands!”
“Catherine and her family were so caring to our elderly dog. They really went out of their way to make sure his separation anxiety and old man ways were managed well. Highly recommend them!”
“We were so happy to have found Anna to watch Jagger for a last minute day trip we went on. She is a caring, kind, & thoughtful person. We could tell Jagger had a great day with Anna. We highly recommend her to take great care of your pet.”
“Wenji and family are great. I got some pictures and Jo got lots of walks. When Jo came home, she was very calm and balanced and happy. Very happy about this experience. Will have Jo stay again with Wenji.”
“100% recommended. I felt very calm throughout my trip because JoEllen was in constant communication with me everyday, She always sent me photos and updates on how my dear Ginger was doing. THANK YOU VERY MUCH”
“We needed to leave Roughy for 4 days. Mary and Dan were great. This was Roughy's first time staying with them. They have a huge fenced in yard that Roughy appeared to love. He isn't used to being off the leash. He ran around the yard barking at the cars going by (which were pretty far away) and got some good exercise. Although he was sad that we left him, Mary and Dan took great care of him and made him feel at home. They were willing to let him sleep in the bed with them which I think made him feel safe. They sent a picture or a video each day and were quick to keep in touch when we messaged them. He was happy to see us when we got back, but I think he had a good time with them and I would go back to them again.”
“Our pups had another amazing stay with Dawn! She watched our two German Shepherds, one of them being only 6 months, and they came back so happy and tired! Dawn always puts any nerves I have at ease, she sends very detailed updates and photos and makes sure our dogs are safe, happy, and well exercised! We have used Dawn in the past and will continue to use her in the future! I truly feel like it’s a little vacation for our pups! Thank you Dawn!”
“Mr. Puggles had a great stay with Ms. Liceth! She gave us daily updates, we would definitely ask her again to take care of him for our next vacation. We highly recommend her for your pet.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 844 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Blue Ball. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Blue Ball can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Blue Ball 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 Blue Ball.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Blue Ball. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
You and your Blue Ball 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
