“Allison and her family were great with my dog! They sent lots of photos and gave updates on how she was doing. And Willow made friends with their dog who was very well mannered!!”
“Boo had a wonderful time with Katie and her family. The frequent pictures Katie sent showed us just how comfortable Boo was. They even took her swimming in their pool! - a first for Boo. If we could give Katie and her family a 10 we would do it.”
“Stacey has been so wonderful with our husky, we are grateful we found her on Rover. She did everything we asked and more. We just moved to the area so it’s always a little scary leaving your dog with anyone new. She took the best care of him, sent us updates and pictures. We look forward to Zeke's next stay with her.”
“Rocky very much enjoyed his stay. Loved playing with the other dogs. Got pictures and videos of him having a great time! Would definitely recommend Nick and Marissa for a safe environment. Will definitely use them again”
“Emily took good care of Lexie. She sent me photos everyday and she was able to take my dog on for walks as well. Will definitely recommend and she will be my point of contact for next sitting.”
“Our dog had a great stay with Erin! We received consistent updates with pictures. Erin was flexible with arranging a meet and greet beforehand. We will definitely be reaching out to Erin again when we need someone to watch our dog!”
“Chelsea was amazing with our 2 golden retrievers. She made them feel right at home so much so that they slept on her couch (which I don’t even permit in my home😊). Her son was also our younger one’s best friend as he tirelessly threw the ball for her! She sent many pictures and updates and was so sweet when talking about them. We already have her booked for another visit and undoubtedly will use Chelsea again. She is a true animal lover!”
About: Hello, To all animal parents. You will have not to worry as your animal will be having a blast while in my care. Wheather it's walks overnight stays in my home or yours or just a check in my love will show no bounds. I will call txt or face time when ever you need so that you are comfortable with being away. Thank you for taking the time considering me as the one who will be taking care of your animals. I have stayed the weekend caring for a medium sized dog as well as two indoor/outdoor cats. I faced timed and texted the animal mom frequently over the weekend so she felt better while away from her children(1 dog 2 cats). Thank you and have a great day! I am currently a stay at home mom so your fur babies will never be alone. I am available for any and all of your animals needs. I have a large back yard and different tie out spots for the dogs to be safe. One friendly large dog and an autistic almost 6 year old daughter starting kindergarten. So I will mostly be me and the dogs.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and do my very best to treat them like family. I make sure they eat, have adequate potty time, and recreation time. I will be sure to take care of your pet as if they were with you. I am currently working, but have plenty of time to care for pets. They will have plenty of time 1 on 1 with their needs met. I have a yard and can give your dog access to exercise or take them on walks at parks. I do my best to follow your home schedule as much as possible to ensure they will be still on that schedule when you return home.
About: I’m a lover of all animals, but dogs have always had my heart. There is nothing quite like the joy that comes with being surrounded by dogs. Their instantaneous affection, contagious happiness, and unique personalities make me so excited to interact with any dog that I cross paths with. I love my job as a special education teacher, but I have always wanted to work with dogs in some capacity, too. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life & understand that beyond their basic needs being met, what they really need is a whole lot of love, and humans who are willing to take on their abundance of love, as well. I hope to make lots of new furry friends on here and give them so much love!! I have a full-time teaching job, so during the school year I am available on nights (after 4pm) and weekends. Over the summer and during holiday breaks, my schedule is much more flexible! I have two dogs that currently live at my parent’s house and come to stay with my every few weeks. This arrangement began when I got my dogs in college and could not keep them in my apartment, and we have found that it works best for them since I am gone most of the day for work. That said, my home is open and animal-free for any pet stays. We have a walkable neighborhood with friendly neighbors and fellow dogs. I also have experience dog-sitting at the dog’s home for those who do better with keeping their usual routine.
“I cannot say enough good things about Tina. When I say that she treated Bernie like her own, I truly mean it! She went above and beyond to spoil our boy and make sure he was loved on at all times. She had great communication with me during the 9 days we were on vacation. His belly was upset bc of separation anxiety and she let me know and offered to pick up anything from the vet that they prescribed. Tina also has the sweetest golden retriever, Duke, that played with Bernie and I think really helped with his anxiety. Bernie was Tina’s shadow during those 9 days and followed her everywhere. That’s how I know he was feeling at ease and found “his person” while we were away. She also really took into consideration the things I was worried about when leaving Bernie, like him destroying and eating toys. She put the toy bin up (poor Duke!) and made sure to watch him when he had toys. I could write pages of how Tina and her family made Bernie part of their family - but just book with her and see for yourself! I won’t use anyone else again.”
“Breanna took amazing care of our pup. She provided a great caring environment, Her dogs are very friendly and love to play with our high energy pooch. She kept us updated with regular photos. We could not have asked for a better experience. Our dog can't wait to visit and stay again.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for many different species. Along with caring for dogs and cats, I also have experience training and taking care of exotic animals like seals and sea lions, which has taught me patience, strong observation skills, and the importance of positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable working with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, whether that means helping keep a puppy on a routine, giving extra patience to a shy pet, or making sure a senior pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your pet like they’re my own I am currently a full-time student at UNCW, so I do have a pretty busy schedule. Monday through Thursday, I am usually busy with classes and other responsibilities from about 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Outside of those hours, I have more flexibility and can make pet care part of my daily routine. I would be able to provide care in the mornings before class, later in the afternoon, and in the evenings. I am also more available on Fridays and weekends. I am used to balancing multiple responsibilities, so I am comfortable planning my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care a pet may need. I make sure all of the basic necessities are taken care of, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and sticking as closely as possible to the pet’s normal routine. I also give them lots of attention, love, and playtime so they feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is cleaned up after each visit, including food areas, accidents, litter boxes if needed, and any toys or supplies used. I also pay attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, whether they are energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed. My goal is to keep them safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bovard
This is the first time we have chosen to use Rover since we have a dog with special needs. We left Mitzi with Gina for 9 days and Gina took excellent care of her. She has a beautiful home, a wonderful welcoming committee Zoey and we couldn't have asked for the constant photos and communication Gina provided. It could not have gone any better, if anything it was a much better experience than we ever imagined. Thank you so much Gina! We will always be grateful for the care you provided! Mitzi, Janie and Steve
Gina T. went the extra miles with our Boxer, a male 11 months old and first time multiple nights away from home. I could not be more enthusiastic about Gina and her family’s care!!! Their dog became a firm friend and playmate for ours. Gina T. will always be our go-to daycare and boarder Rover!

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 Bovard home-away-from-home, 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 Bovard.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Bovard 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 , 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 .
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.
