“Jessica was GREAT!!! if I could leave 10 stars I would. This was my wife and I first time using Rover and the first time leaving our pup for a long period of time but Jessica made us feel comfortable from start to finish. The most important thing is that she made our pup Marliey feel comfortable. She sent videos kept us updated on everything Marliey was doing. We will definitely be boarding with Jessica again in the near future.”
“I was nervous at 1st to leave Kensi with anyone because we have never left her over night with anyone. But Christine took extremely great care of our pup. Would recommend her also to someone who needs a pet sitter..”
“Jia was fantastic! She was very flexible and understanding with pick up and drop off times, was attentive during the meet and greet to both care instructions as well as making sure Dashi fit in well, and was extremely communicative during the sit with photo and video updates. I would highly recommend Jia for her attention to detail and excellent care for your pup.”
“Kathleen took great care of our 11 year old dog Luke! She provided us with updates and pictures daily. We felt very comfortable while away and will definitely us her for future needs.”
“We had a great experience leaving our dogs with Wanda. When we left them I heard them crying and was a bit concerned about them settling in. When we got home Wanda had texted and let us know they were setting in and sent us photos showing them relaxing. During the week we received multiple photos and updates on how it was going, which put us at ease. When we picked up the dogs they were in excellent health and very happy. We would highly recommend Wanda dog sitting services. Thank you Wanda, for taking such good care of our dogs.”
“Janet is a lovely woman who took excellent care of Grover while my husband and I were away. She sent us updates and pictures and answered my texts quickly. She was extra patient during our introductory meetings and made sure that our little terrier mix who is normally-wary-of-strangers was comfortable being around her and in her home. I highly recommend Janet and will definitely book with her in the future ☺️”
“Stephanie is the best! My dog is a very anxious little Chihuahua, She fully understands and takes excellent care of our little furry baby when we are long away. She provides updates and pictures every day, giving us peace of mind knowing our little guy is enjoying her time. I was worry free during the long trip because of Stephanie. I highly recommend Stephanie We are very thankful that we found her!”
“We feel so very fortunate to have had Joe and his wife Bonnie care for our 13 year old Westie, Ozzy, for 9 days. They sent updates and pictures and made us feel comfortable and confident that Oz was in great hands during this extended stay. They are true dog lovers and our sweet Oz had a very nice stay with them. Thanks so much Joe and Bonnie!”
About: From a family of dog lovers, I have always had a dog at home to care for. Growing up, I was the neighborhood’s go-to pet sitter. I love all dogs and have a very flexible schedule! I am currently a teacher on summer break which leaves me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your dogs on a schedule that works best for you! I have a friendly and playful dog at home, Murphy who can keep your pup company or be crated if needed. At my apartment we have two gated dog run areas and living downtown provides many fun areas to walk.
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“Our pup is always so happy with Lauren and John! They kept him so comfortable during our busy wedding weekend, and let us focus on the family and friends we had in town. We highly recommend their home :)”
“Brineydi took great care of my dog Bella. We haven't used rover much in a long time, so this was a great relief. I was provided pictures and updates throughout her stay so I could see she was doing well which gave great peace of mind. 10/10 would book again”
“Jill was absolutely wonderful with Charlie and Bailey. She and her fur baby Roscoe made them feel at home. Jill was so helpful, flexible and caring with them. They were administered meds regularly, fed and cared for with great love. Her home was beautiful and very clean but still very conducive to pet care. She was in touch with pics and reports daily and they always looked happy and healthy. She lives very close so that was an extra convenience. I’m excited that we’ve found such a wonderful caregiver so close to home. We will definitely be coming back.”
“Our dog had a great time staying with Kaile! Super responsive sitter and kept me updated along the way about how our dog was doing. Also very easy to coordinate pick up and drop off times. I knew our dog was in great hands and would highly recommend Kaile!”
“Dawn took great care of our dog and sent daily pictures of him. We felt at ease on our trip knowing our dog was being looked after by Dawn. She loves animals and it shows. Will definitely contact Dawn again for future dog care. Excellent service!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Croydon
This sitter has convinced me to stick with Rover instead of kennels/daycares. Our 6 year old pup was loved, cared for, handled properly, safe and kept how we hoped. Her schedules were preserved, her environment was ideal, and Amanda and her family were a dream. Frequent updates, pictures, working with our time zone differences while we were out of country, clarified all concerns I had before and after. I will consistently reach out to Amanda for ALL of our pet sitting needs for as long as she is offering it. She deserves the business and will not disappoint.
Elaine was so great with my senior dog Pawly. Pawly is trained to go outside but somehow forgot all that with the stress of new surroundings. Elaine handled it like a pro. She went out and brought him training pads out of her own money. She taught an old dog a new trick to go on an inside pad which he has never done before. Pawly came home looking happy and well feed. Pawly cant wait to see his awesome pet sitter again! I would recommend Elaine with out exception. She has a big backyard and pets of her own that get along with their new friends.
I couldn’t be happier with the care Iger provided for my dog Waffles. She was definitely a bit hesitant and slow to warm up at first, but Iger clearly has a ton of experience reading dog body language and personalities. By the end of the week, the two of them had completely bonded! I received constant updates packed with photos and videos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s so reassuring to find someone who genuinely knows how to handle different temperaments with patience and skill. I’ll definitely be booking him again!
Yuliia was kind, caring to my dog and to me as well! We had an emergency the day we were supposed to pick our dog up which meant with very short notice we couldn't get her at the planned time. Yuliia was understanding and was able to have our dog for a couple more hours. It meant so much to us that it did was cared for while we were away. Thank you Yuliia!
I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet! She took amazing care of my dog while I was away on vacation, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that she treated him like one of her own. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly loved during his stay. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my fur baby—I will definitely be booking with you again in the future! 🐾❤️

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Croydon is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $50 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
94% of sitters in Croydon 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 Croydon 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 Croydon.
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 Croydon 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.
