“Jamie was wonderful with The Diva! Jaime sent photos every day while we were away and updated us on how Hadassah was adjusting. I would highly recommend her to care for your sweet ones. Bobbi Jo”
“We highly recommend Wade. Our Gemma spent a week in his home. She had an amazing time going for long hikes, walks around town, and to the dog park. He sent us updates with photos every day and even had to deal with a health issue that popped up. If you’re looking for a kind, friendly and trustworthy dog sitter, definitely choose Wade.”
About: I have 5 years of experience caring for animals and understand how important it is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know every animal has their own personality and needs, and I always do my best to make them feel at home. Your pets will receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! My schedule is flexible, and I can dedicate time to caring for your cats. I’m happy to help with feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, cuddles, and check-ins. I’ll communicate with you about visits and make sure your cat receives plenty of attention and care while you’re away. Your cat’s safety and comfort are my priorities. As a cat owner with 10 years of experience, I understand that every cat has a different personality and needs time to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep their environment clean and safe, provide fresh food and water, and send updates so you can feel confident your furry friend is in good hands. ❤️
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie who is our whole world. I love all animals and promise to go above and beyond to meet their needs. I work part time two days a week. I am home full time the other five days of the week. I may or may not accept bookings on the days that I work depending on the needs you are looking for. We currently have a goldendoodle named Charlie! We do have a toddler present in the home with a baby on the way as well. Asking that all dogs you are seeking care for are good with other dogs and small children.
“Robert was great with our Savannah. Though she was certainly happy to see us, she did not seem distraught in any way when we picked her up. Since I was nervous leaving her, Robert sent me lots of pics and updates. It appeared Savannah and Robert's dogs, Lizzy and Elvis, all got along well. I feel Savannah was well cared for and likely spoiled. She is accustomed to being spoiled, so she felt right at home.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. Anywhere from small, medium, to large dogs. I’ve had mini dachshunds, Dalmatians, St. Bernards, and German Shepherds. Currently right now I have a 3 Golden Retrievers named Willie, Waylon, and Hank. I also have a cat named Cash! I current work full time Monday-Thursday. I can be available later evenings if needed, we would just have to work things out in advance. I am generally free Friday-Sunday for any needs as well but also with notice. We have a 2 acre yard that my pups are free to roam via a underground fence. But we also have a lead for my moms dogs when she brings them over to play. We have a big house with a good sized living room and kitchen where all of my pups play as well when we have to be inside.
About: Hi there! My name is Lauren and I moved to PA earlier this March for my job! My best friend came with me (9 year old Great Dane/Saint Bernard mix) unfortunately she was diagnosed with colon cancer after our arrival and I sent my sweet girl over the rainbow bridge in July. If I’m being honest life hasn’t been the same since, so I figured Rover would be a great opportunity for me still be able to love on all the dogs while also helping out someone else!! I’ve had dogs all my life and can handle big or small. Nala was 105 pounds and was leash reactive so I am always alert/aware on our walks and have had experience dealing with larger dogs and reactivity! I currently work Monday-Friday 7:30-4:30 so mainly would be available for overnight boarding/stays through the weekend and can walk your fur baby after I get off! I do not have a fenced in yard but am surrounded by plenty of large outside areas and if animal is more comfortable staying in own home, would absolutely love to watch them there!
“The best! If your pet is lucky enough to have Marcy, then you and your pet are in for a tweet. Stella had plenty of walks, love and attention. Marcy went out of her way to come to our house to meet Stella and ourselves prior to taking Stella in. I dropped Stella off at her lovely home with plenty of space for Stella. Marcy returned Stella to our home, so that we didn’t have to go out after my surgery. It was the perfect match. I hope Stella is lucky enough to go and stay with Marcy again.”
“Jody was extremely pleasant to work with. She was friendly immediately upon meeting her and interacted with our dogs like they were her own. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
About: I've cared for two of my own dogs and cats for 20 years of my life (since I was 5.) I've given medicines, always walked, house trained, played with and loved on them. I'm currently a stay at home mom of a 7 year old boy so I'm typically always home every day of the week. I'm looking for any kind of schedules and am very flexible. Hoping to make some money for my son. I have a good sized 2 bedroom townhouse, a front and back yard, will take them on daily walks/runs and they can always play with my son and who also adores all animals.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dale
Amanda is absolutely wonderful!!! I have used her services 3 times so far for my small dog. My dog and hers get along great. When we arrive and our knock causes her dog to bark mine answeres with a howl. Thats how I can tell she loves it there. Amanda sends multiple pics a day and my baby feels so loved. She is about 45 min away from us but the extra mileage is worth it.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 76 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Dale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Dale 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 Dale home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Dale.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dale. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Dale 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
