“My dog, Riley, has separation anxiety and this when is the first time he was left with somebody else at their house. After 6 hours, when I came to pick him up, I have never seen him so at ease and tuckered out! I saw videos of him running with the caregiver's other dog, and he was having the time of his life! I am so extremely glad that I found Joe, and I'm going to use him in the future for sure!”
“Milissa was super responsive and accommodating for our last minute request! Our pup was kept company the entire day with walk and lounge updates provided as well. Very convenient option for anyone in the NE area.”
“First time with Shannon and Taz seemed to settle in easily. Nice fenced in yard. Shannon was very easy to work with, took him on walks and seemed to genuinely care about his well being. Taz will be a repeat customer! Thanks Shannon!”
“Hardy and his daughter were absolutely amazing with Ziggy! From the very first moment, they made sure Ziggy felt safe, comfortable, and right at home. Hardy was so communicative — he called me with updates and sent pictures throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. What really stood out is that this was a last-minute request, and Hardy came through without hesitation. Ziggy genuinely enjoyed every moment of his stay. Highly recommend Hardy to any pet parent looking for someone who truly cares!”
“Maryori was 12/10! Not only did she take in Cooper last minute she was very sweet and accommodating. She kept me updated on Cooper the entire time. You won’t regret keeping your pup with her. This was the first time but it won’t be the last I book with her!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for 13 years (plus grew up with family dogs!) and when I cannot be home in time to take care of my own, I am stressed and worried. When I find someone to help care for my dog, I want them to take as much care as I would. So when I'm taking care of someone else's dog I will care for them the same way! If your dog has any special needs, I am very open to learning about them and want to know how I could best take care of them so both you and your dog are safe and happy.
“We did a trial stay with Gabriella before leaving our dog for a week in November. Kira was walked twice, had lunch, a nap and went on a little car ride. She was very happy when she got home. Gabriella was wonderful with her and it makes us feel much less anxious about leaving her.”
“She had great availability, and my dog loved playing with hers. She was flexible about dietary things (like my dog on a raw meat diet). She took cute pictures and kept me abreast of my dog’s urination and bowel movements. She was kind, kept a clean house, had fenced in space outdoors for the dogs to play and get some exercise, movement and sunlight. She was reliable and felt safe with my dog in her care.”
“Beth was available and flexible when I found myself in a pinch and needing just one day of care for my pup. Her family took good care of my pooch and gave him lots of cuddles, which I know he enjoyed.”
About: I am 33 years old. I was raised around animals. My father had every pet you can think of in our home. I have experience with cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish, guinea pig, turtles , andeven ponies. I love animals and wish I could own a farm or something similar just so I could be surrounded by animals. I have used rover in the past but lost my login info but I was a dog sitter for about a year. I live in an apartment near Pennypack Park so I can take your pets on walks there or outside my building are grassy areas. If you book with me you will not regret it. I make sure your pets are fed, walked, taken out and played with. I love cuddling and playing with animals. I will take pictures and keep you updating if you would like. I cant wait to hear from you!! I only work weekend nights starting next weekend. I am free any other time. I also have kids who love animals and would love to help. I make sure to have all pets on whatever routine they are used to or I will make one that fits the routines in my house. They will be walked, fed and played with however long they are with me.
“This was our pup’s first time at a Rover house day care and we saw him playing outside, even with sitter’s pooch, and looking happy! He even came home clean and tuckered out. We're very impressed with the whole experience!”
“I can’t thank Tim enough for being such a lifesaver and amazing sitter! I had a very last minute need for a sitter over the July 4th weekend while I was working and he stepped up in the biggest way. He walked Coco multiple times a day and gave the most adorable summaries of their day together. Coco sprinted to him immediately after only one day and it was obvious she had a great time despite the terrible 100 degree weather that weekend. I can’t thank him enough and can’t wait for him to sit coco again!”
“Yuhan was able to care for my corgi Luna as I made a last minute daycare request. When I picked up Luna she looked so happy that she was smiling all night. That’s my biggest indicator that Yuhan cared for my fur baby as I would at home.”
“I have trusted Roseanna and her polite boys several times now and I am so appreciative that Ajax has such a safe and entertaining place to spend the day and play with other puppy friends.”
About: I have been taking care of pets my whole life starting from when I first started begging my mom for one! I have taken care of dogs from puppies to senior dogs. Your pet's happiness is the most important thing for me. I will do whatever I can to make sure they have the best day! Also a huge bonus for your pet, I am an organic pet treat baker~! Goodies will always be shared (if allowed.) I am a student with a flexible schedule, so I study mostly at home. During my time at home I normally try to go on a few walks a day which would be great accompanied by a pet! I live in a very spacious two bedroom apartment. I do not personally have a yard but I love to spend time with dogs in the fenced in dog park in my apartment complex. my apartment is always dog proof and cat proof.
About: Hi there! I've taken care of dogs and had my own dogs for over 20 years. Currently I’m a full time, work from home professional, which means your dog will have constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. Our household is incredibly peaceful. I have a resident cat and a Bichon Frise who are both very mellow and welcoming to new friends. I have a fully fenced-in yard. Because I am home all day, I easily adapt to your dog’s needs. My home is best suited for small to medium dogs, as my Bichon naturally prefers companions who are his own size or smaller. I can’t wait to welcome your dog into our home! I am working from home and able to provide frequent potty breaks and constant attention during the day and after work. I can easily adjust to your pets needs. I have a large fenced in yard. I also like to walk my dogs in the neighborhood or Pennypack trail. I live 5 minutes away from Lorimer park trail.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cheltenham
We are first timers at Rover and was nervous as we don’t have much experience with leaving our Ari 🐕 with someone outside of family. Terri was so nice and fast with communications prior to our meet. She greeted us friendly at our first meet today. When we picked up our dog, Ari 🐕 looked happy and looked like everything went well. Terri was great with updating us with how the day went with our dog. We appreciated her feedbacks and updates. Looking forward to sending our Ari 🐕 again to Terri.
Kyrah was an excellent sitter! She sent pictures and kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. She was also very accommodating when I had to pick Rex up later than expected. I truly recommend her—she treated Rex like he was one of her own. I’m also so glad Rex got to have fun and spend time with her daughter. I would definitely book with Kyrah again!
Ashley was such a great sitter. She was available on very short notice and even though it was just a six hour stay at her house she walked Grover several times and played with him a ton. I felt like Grover got 100% of Ashley's attention. She helped us out in a bind and I would absolutely use her again and I wholeheartedly recommend her.
Joseph was good & patient with Shadow. He’s a high energy husky & I’m sure he can be a lot to deal with. But my boy was eager to go over Joseph’s place to play. Both days that were needed. I did not have any issues while I was away. Even sent occasional photos giving updates of my boy. Will be using his services again.
We brought Luna over for just a few hours today to help her get comfortable, and Lindsay was wonderful as always. She is so patient, kind, and understanding. Peanut was so excited to see Lindsay and her family again, which made my heart so happy because it shows how loved he feels there. I'm grateful to have found someone I can trust with my babies, and I know these visits are helping Luna adjust. Thank you for taking such great care of them!
Maryori was 12/10! Not only did she take in Cooper last minute she was very sweet and accommodating. She kept me updated on Cooper the entire time. You won’t regret keeping your pup with her. This was the first time but it won’t be the last I book with her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Cheltenham on Rover is $44.4 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Cheltenham commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,439 sitters in Cheltenham, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
