“Nelia and family once again were the best. Cashmere had a complex feeding and medication regimen to handle. I was out of the country and felt so relieved she was being cared for and loved.”
“Victoria has watched my 5 year old GSD many times and I’m always impressed by her level of care, responsiveness, and communication. She sends video updates multiple times per day- and as an added bonus Luna has a blast playing with the other dogs.”
“Amanda and Jack were absolutely amazing! My girl, Onyx, had an issue with her elbow, and they handled the situation with incredible care, compassion, and professionalism. They kept me updated with photos throughout her stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind, and they even took her on a nature hike so she could enjoy some time outdoors. It's clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. I highly recommend Amanda's services and wouldn't hesitate to trust them with Onyx again!”
“Sara was perfect. I booked her last minute for the first time and she did an amazing job caring for my dogs, one of which is a senior dog that needs special care. I was very anxious to leave her but Sara was very reassuring and communicated very well. She didn’t miss a beat giving my dog her medications and sent plenty of updates. When I picked my dogs up, I could just tell they were comfortable and had a great stay. Absolutely plan to use Sara again.”
“A.J. and his neighbors shared many snuggles with my sheepdog, Tate. So trustworthy and accommodating. I felt at ease through exchanged photos, a meet and greet, and a matched early arrival time request. I know Tate has a new best friend 🐾”
“Elizabeth was a great choice to care for my dog Dunkin! She let him make himself right at home in her space and sent consistent pictures and updates allowing me to have great peace of mind while away. Would recommend!”
“Amy was wonderful and so accommodating and communicative for a semi-last minute boarding request for my two fur babies. My mind was at ease while I was away. She sent pics and updates daily. I would highly recommend Amy!”
“Couldn’t be more complementary about Lindsay and her family other than to say that they made Rusty feel like another part of their family. They welcomed him with open arms knowing he had counter surfing issues and separation anxiety. From the photos she sent, it is evident that Rusty enjoyed his stay.”
“Elizabeth was fantastic! If I could give her a higher rating, I would. Her and her family treated my dog as if he was their own. She has a beautiful, fenced in back yard that allowed my dog to be outdoors without any worries! I know she was very attentive to him at all times, kept us updated everyday and sent several pictures which made my kids very happy! My pup does not like kennels and this was an alternative and it turned out to be the greatest experience for my dog and our family! Would definitely love for her to care for my dog anytime!! Thank you Elizabeth and your family!!”
“Maria is wonderful! From our first meeting at our meet and greet we could tell that our Shadow felt safe and happy in her home. During Shadow’s first overnight, Maria kept in touch by sending us messages and photos of Shadow. I could tell from the pictures that Shadow felt right at home. Maria’s calm, caring demeanor sets the tone of welcome and comfort. When we dropped Shadow off, she didn’t even notice that we were leaving! I highly recommend Maria to care for your pet!”
“Skylar and Brandon were wonderful caretakers of my pup for 8 days. They were understanding of my concern for my French bulldog and the heat and were very responsive to any questions I had. They sent daily updates and pictures and I highly recommend them and will definitely use them in the future.”
“Christy took excellent care of our pups! We received updates throughout our dogs stay and they seemed very happy. Would book with Christy again.”
“Laura is an incredible person, full of life and energy.....it was very obvious to me through pictures that my dog was enjoying his stay. Laura exercised him and took him to parks to play, she made sure he was eating and able to get out when needed. Very relieved to have found her when I needed.”
“This was our 1st time using Rover and we recommend it 100%! Tristan was awesome with Sadie! We got tons of pictures and she was very responsive. Would recommend her-Sadie came home happy and healthy!”
“Mary and family made our pup and us feel so welcome! Our older pup got lots of attention, love and regular walks throughout the weekend as well as the company of sweet Bella. We would have no hesitation asking Mary and family to watch our pup again.”
“Michelle did a great job watching my dog, Pepper. She lives in a quiet neighborhood and has a large yard for dogs to run around in. I had peace of mind having her pet-sit Pepper for the weekend.”
“I absolutely love Debbie and Adam. They took such great care of my chihuahua, Ozzie. I got lots of pictures sent to me and I could see both of them involved with loving care for him. They have two small dogs of their own and one of them shared her bed with Ozzie so he’d be happy! I highly recommend them and will definitely use them from now on.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dormont
We are over the moon in love with Tia and her home as a home-away-from-home for our darling Rudy. We have never been so happy with the care he gets when we are away as we are now, having had him stay at Tia's home. We could see in every picture she sent that he was happy and thriving. He was always smiling, playing, cuddling or snoozing and he just looked so happy in every picture sent to us.. We feel that Rover was a fabulous find for us, but more than that, choosing Tia was the best decision we've made for dog care in years. Just knowing he was in such a supportive environment eliminated all our worries about leaving him while we traveled. This was the best experience ever! Tia cared for our dog just the way we wanted, and it was so nice to have him in her home, rather than a cement and chain link kennel.
Julia was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter, and we highly recommend her! She is an excellent communicator and sent us numerous photos and updates throughout each day, which gave us great peace of mind and allowed us to see how happy and well cared for our girl was. We have had the pleasure of meeting many excellent dog sitters through Rover, and we are delighted to have found someone as caring, attentive, and trustworthy as Julia. Our dog, JJ, is older and does best in a calm environment where she can maintain her familiar routine. Julia understood how important this was and did a wonderful job ensuring JJ felt comfortable and keeping her on her usual schedule. When we picked JJ up, she seemed content, relaxed, and happy, which told us everything we needed to know! It is such a relief to find someone we can trust to care for our beloved girl with the same thoughtfulness and attention we would give her ourselves. We would happily book Julia again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive sitter.
We were nervous about leaving our dog for 2 weeks since she had only been boarded one other time and it was not a good experience. Raeann was willing to meet multiple times and do numerous test runs before our trip and she was so patient with us. By the time we left on our trip we knew our dog would be in excellent hands and she was! She gave her so much attention and love that we will definitely call on Raeann with no hesitation!
Taye is absolutely wonderful with Loki. He is not only a great sitter, but also a wonderful friend and playmate for him. I truly appreciate the care, attention, and affection he gives Loki, and I always feel comfortable knowing Loki is safe and well cared for with him. I’m very grateful to have Taye looking after Loki.

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 Dormont 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 Dormont.
<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 Dormont 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.
