“We couldn’t be happier with the care Zara received from Jaideep and his wife. They watched Zara for us in May and she was so excited when we parked. They give her so much love. She is happy, comfortable and content. We love the updates and all the pictures. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and highly recommend them.”
“Terrific environment for our French Spaniel 'Sanza' to stay over for play, exploring, and even chill. We intend to use Pam and Mike again for our short and long trips, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, clean, and attentive home.”
“Marner had a great time playing and napping with his dog friend. He’s well taken care of and Sowmya sends us pictures each day. This is our 2nd time using Sowmya. Definitely recommend!”
“Our dog Milo was treated like a member of the family. We were very happy boarding him with Heather. She was flexible with rimes and even was able to board him an extra due to us having travel issues. Will use her again.”
“Wonderful folks! I'm happy for daily updates and details on my kitties. They helped feel comfortable and allowed them to slowly open up. Definitely would rebook in the future if needed.”
“Stephen took great care of my dog Milo for the day! Milo was very well taken care of, and on the ride home, he fell asleep. I knew right away he had an awesome stay! I truly appreciate Stephen for making sure Milo was happy and comfortable. I would definitely recommend him and would book with him again! 🐾❤️”
“Jack and Carrie were great with my Goldendoodle, providing pictures and daily updates. Loved the fenced-in yard. There were other dogs for him to play with, which was an added bonus.”
“This is Finn's second summer of staying with Laura. She has taken care of him quite a number of times now and he always has a blast and is well taken care of. Finn loves playing and running around with other dogs. He is very active and Laura makes sure he gets plenty of exercise. He also gets lots of attention and love from her and her family. It gives us piece of mind knowing that Finn is in good hands while we are away. Finn can't wait to come back!”
“Rosa and her girls are wonderful. I left my two dogs with them for a long trip. I received pictures and videos every day. My dogs looked healthy and happy in all the messages. I could tell that they were well taken care. It helped me enjoy my vacation and not worry. I would recommend Rosa.”
“Rebecca was wonderful! Responded quickly to initial inquiry and communicated timely throughout the weekend. She sent lots of photos of my dog which made me feel so comfortable to see her happy and relaxed. Highly recommend Rebecca!”
About: For house sitting a drop in care: I have taken care of friends and families dogs for arounds 3 years now. They range from 10 months old to 11 years old so, I have some senior dog care experience. They range from 10 pounds to 110 pounds. My dog requires daily pill medication distribution so, if you pet requires a daily pill, I am a veteran at administering pills. I also have oral syringe medication experience. I am a doctor as well so, if a pet requires needle medication administering, I can do that as well with instructions. If you dog requires long walks, I am the person who is up for the job. If you pet would rather sit on the couch and curl up with tv shows, I am also the person for that job! For boarding care: my wife works from home Monday through Friday and has pet sitting experience. You can be sure to receive all of the care and experience as described above! We do have 1, 85 pound neutered male German Shepherd, who loves dogs, cats, and kids, so if your dog loves other dogs, especially big ones, then we are the home for you! I currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, 6am to 2:30pm and am available any time after that. I am willing to stay in the pet owners home and will be home everyday after work. I am available at any time during the weekend. For boarding care: my wife works from home Monday through Friday and has pet sitting experience.

I do medication distribution, litter box cleaning, walks, playing with toys and any indoor pet maintenance that you may need.
“I trust Tiffany with Basil; she makes sure she is very well taken care of and I never have to worry. Basil is always very happy during her visits with Tiffany and it shows.”
“Rodger is amazing. We have a 2-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog who is HIGH energy and very large. Rodger was wonderful, sending frequent text and photo updates of our dog's care. Our dog got great care and came back happy! We have used Rodger before and we will continue to use him!”
“Korine and Matt were so kind and thoughtful and took amazing care of Evie! Evie can have a bit of a hard time warming up to people, but she fell in love with them so quickly! They are my first choice when coming back to visit the area! I can't thank them enough!!!!”
“Kerrie did a wonderful job watching our dog Willow. She took the booking last minute, gave us periodic updates, as well as pictures, and made us feel very informed and assured that Willow was being taken care of. Our dog came home happy and adjusted back right away! We would book Kerrie again without a doubt!”
About: I am available all day every week and weekend. I am a very big dog lover and am kind hearted. I enjoy being outside and love being with furry friends. I am recently unemployed. I have had a lot of experience with dogs and grew up with multiple puppies. I lost a large amount of weight in Highschool from walking with my family dog twice everyday, throughout the summer and fall seasons. I believe greatly that animals need to be exercised everyday in order to live a full and happy life. With a willing to travel far distances and the ability to work with all breeds I hope to be a good choice for anyone who needs a dog sitter or dog walker. Thank you.

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 Cove 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 Cove.
<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 Cove 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.
