“Mike and Lorraine took such great care of Van while we were away! We were nervous using Rover for the first time and they really put us at ease. We loved the picture updates and kind feedback throughout the stay. Will definitely hope to book with them for future trips.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! Our dog is very high energy and requires a lot of attention, exercise and patience. Kathleen handled everything beautifully. We came home to a happy, healthy and well-cared-for pup. Communication was excellent throughout our trip with regular updates and photos that showed how much fun our dog was having, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was treated with genuine care and affection not just looked after. We highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Lynda is an excellent dog-sitter! She was so great to deal with- responsive, communicative and flexible with drop off and pick up times. You can definitely see how much Lynda loves dogs. Our dog is the anxious type, but Lynda worked really well with him. Thanks so much for your excellent care of Rosco!”
“My standard poodle has stayed with Rebecca twice now. She sends tons of photos and videos and is super communicative which I really appreciate. Finn was really excited to see her again and that says it all to me. Definitely a sitter I trust and hope to use again!”
“Allison and Kevin were amazing watching my dog Sunny for 5 nights! I was pretty nervous leaving her without family for the first time but they reassured me daily with plenty of updates and pictures and I was so happy they were loving on my baby while I was away. Truly great first time Rover experience and I would definitely book with them again!!”
“very helpful dog sitter. Caring very communicative. We have a French bulldog and they was very understanding that their Breed unique. We’ll definitely rebook”
“Amy was amazing with my dog, Roxy!! I highly recommend using her. Roxy is an older mini goldendoodle and Amy was so accommodating and sweet with her. I got daily updates with photos. I felt so comfortable and Amy made the process super smooth. I booked her last minute and so glad I did. I highly recommend and would use her again!”
“Yuhan was incredible with our 2.5-yr-old pup Jack. We were in a bind with finding someone to watch him on such short notice, and she was more than willing to help us out. She sent us a bunch of pictures throughout the weekend, so we felt very secure. We did not have any concerns with leaving Jack with Yuhan, her husband, her todler, and her pup Oreo. Jack and Oreo seemed to have become great friends very quickly. Thanks Yuhan! We hope to use you to watch Jack again in the future!”
“Devin was a joy to work with and I'm so thankful to have found her. She is kind, flexible, and easy-going. She was willing to take on my unpredictable dog and treated her with kindness and patience. Would definitely re-book!”
“Yulia and Kevin were amazing with Aulin! They kept us updated with many videos/pictures during his stay, took him on multiple walks, and planned out the other dogs that were staying with him that week (they were all similar in size!). We would absolutely recommend them to anyone. Thanks so much, guys!”
“As always, Hollie was terrific- she took Daisy’s unexpected UTI in stride and administered the meds we had shipped to her. She is a loving caretaker and our dog is happy and comfortable with her.”
“Absolutely 100% recommend. I received so many adorable photos of my pups while I was away. Excellent communication and can really tell how much Staci loves animals. She loved on my babies so much and can really tell that they were in good hands.”
“Christina took great care of our pup! She sent cute pictures and kept us updated the whole time! He loved her and was very happy and relaxed with her. We’d definitely use her services again!”
About: I’ve not only been a pet parent for many years; I’ve also volunteered at local animal shelters and done pet sitting and boarding for cats and dogs. I love animals and treat every one as my own. Nicknames-Carla/Carolyn. I’m available for weekend/holiday boarding to allow pet parents the freedom to have a well deserved getaway experience when desired. Dogs/cats in my care are never left alone. Only one dog is in care at any given time unless dogs are from the same household and are friendly with each other. There will never be more than two dogs on the premises simultaneously. I’d be delighted to have your pet join our happy home and enjoy a fun mini vacation of their own. I treat each pet as if they were my own. In my pet centered home, I provide loving care and supervision at all times. I remain on the property for the duration of your pet’s stay. Dogs are always on leash when outdoors. Doors are always secured. Dogs are secured in vehicle if transported (leash with seat belt or in secured carrier. Cats are in secured carrier if transported. Since I have 2 cats, pets are compartmentalized in my home , if needed. At pet parent’s request, oral/topical medication may be given if I feel comfortable administering.
“Another excellent boarding experience with Becky and Christian. They kept in touch and sent photos regularly. Sweetie was calm and happy when I picked her up.”
“I want to thank Diego and Ameilia for taking such good care of Toffee! This was the first time we've left Toffee in a sitter’s home. Toffee seemed very happy and taken good care of. I felt pleased seeing all the pics that they shared.I will definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
“Nicolle was amazing with our new puppy! We have only had her for 2 weeks, so we were nervous about leaving her with a sitter, but Nicolle put us at ease. She was prompt in her responses both prior to the booking and during the booking and sent photos. Our pup came back happy and well cared for”

Shamira was amazing with Loki. She send me updates daily and made sure to let me know how Loki was doing throughout the day. She was super flexible with drop off and pick up which I really appreciated and was comfortable administering his eye medication. We’re definitely booking with her again. Thank you Shamira!
Edward and his lovely family took such amazing care of Ivory, I feel so fortunate that I found them! They have a beautiful home with a spacious and well-kept fenced yard. Ivory loved getting to know the chickens! She was so happy and loved during her stay, I will definitely be calling on Edward and Jenn in the future.
We were extremely happy with Jessica! She took such great care of our dog and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and settled. She took the time to learn our dog’s schedule and routine, which made everything feel seamless. We really appreciated all the updates, pictures, and videos, and she even brushed our dog daily! We’re so happy we found Jessica.
I had such a great experience boarding my dog with her. It's hard to leave your dog with someone else, but she made the whole process easy and stress-free. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and enjoys caring for them. When I picked Spoofer up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. That meant everything to me. I never worried while I was away because I knew she was in good hands. If you're looking for someone who is dependable, caring, and will treat your dog with kindness and attention, I highly recommend her. I'll definitely be boarding my dog with her again!
Jennifer provided an amazing and comfortable environment for our dog Blaze. I could tell instantly that Blaze was safe and happy in her care. Jennifer has lots of dogs that know how to play and have fun. Overall, it was a great experience and I can’t recommend Jennifer enough.
Hiring Dana to dogsit Buster was the best decision. We usually board him at the vet, but wanted a change so that he would have a more social, active and fun experience. Dana was thoughtful, caring, communicative and flexible throughout the entire process (from booking to pickup). She took excellent care of Buster with specific attention to our requests. She sent us many wonderful photos of his daily activities, which included several nature and park walks. Buster had his own little vacation exploring new places while we enjoyed ours in complete peace of mind. We happily give Dana the highest praise and rating with respect to our experience with her. She is a true animal lover and a nice person.
Stephany was awesome! Very communicative, great handler, and my dog loved her. She took my Nala on big walks, let her out on a leash in the yard, and was attentive to her, sent me multiple pictures and videos, and I can tell my dog wants to go back. Not to mention, she took my booking request on a days notice and I went from requesting to drop off in less than 24 hours. Perfectly reasonable price, will definitely be rebooking in the future!!!
Mike and Lorraine took such great care of Van while we were away! We were nervous using Rover for the first time and they really put us at ease. We loved the picture updates and kind feedback throughout the stay. Will definitely hope to book with them for future trips.
Our dog Halle had a wonderful stay with Brittany! She sent us pics and updates and we could tell that Halle was getting lots of walks, pets and love. Halle is dog-reactive and Brittany took great care handling her. It was so nice to return from vacation to a very happy dog. We would be delighted to have Brittany watch Halle for us again in the future.

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 Broad Axe 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 Broad Axe.
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 Broad Axe 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.
