“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. From the moment we connected, it was clear how much Nelia genuinely cares about dogs. While I was away, she sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious my dog was not only well taken care of, but also happy, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. I came home to a relaxed, happy dog. I highly recommend Nelia to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring dog sitter. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Victoria was wonderful with Smokey! I received daily updates showing that he was out with the other dogs, in the mix. Smokey is home, happy, and resting. (Mom is doing the same.) I recommend Victoria (and niece Dasha) completely! Much love for dogs is obvious. 🐕”
“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!”
“This was our first experience with Rover and we could not have dreamed of a better experience! Sara was so sweet and knowledgeable, and sent lots of wonderful photos. The next time we will absolutely go to her first!!”
“Damara was wonderful! She was very caring and thoughtful with Theo. From the pictures and communication I could tell that Theo enjoyed his time with Demara and her daughter. Would definitely rebook in the future!”
“AJ was a great sitter for the weekend for my Jack Russell. AJ was very attentive and took excellent care of Diesel. Will definitely book again with AJ. Thank you so much for keeping my mind at ease with sending updates and photos!”
“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!”
“Christine takes very good care of my Winnie. She's reliable and communicates all the things you want to know along w pictures. I've had Winnie stay with her multiple times and will rebook in the future.”
“Amy was great :) she truly is a dog lover. She kept me posted on a daily basis with pictures of my fur babies via text mssg. My fur babies were happy with their stay and I felt very comfortable trusting her with them.”
“Elizabeth provided the very best care for our 3 dogs! We are definitely going to ask her to watch them again. She frequently updated us and clearly gave them lots of love and attention. She even sent them home with goodie bags with treats! She really went above and beyond. Sometimes the dogs seem a little "off" after returning from being boarded, but not this time at all. They were at ease in Elizabeth's home and very happy.”
“Maria and her family took care of my puppy like she was their own. I'm so grateful I found such a wonderful family that I can trust with my baby. Maria, I'm so thankful Kashi got to spend time with and play with your baby boy.”
“This was the first time Lyla stayed with Beth and her family. I'm very pleased with the level of care and communication. Beth took great care of Lyla and Lyla really seemed to enjoy herself. Great sitter, highly recommend!”
“Simba enjoyed his stay at Skyler's. This was his first time boarding and we were anxious about it. Skyler made it so easy and gave updates. He came home clean and fresh. Will definitely book Skyler again. Thank you for making Simba's stay safe and happy!”
About: Hi there! I absolutely love dogs and have been around them my entire life—from family dogs and friends’ pups to volunteering at local shelters. I currently don’t have a dog of my own, so dog walking and pet sitting is the perfect way for me to get my puppy fix! I’ll treat your pup like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and cuddles. 🐾 I currently work from home and live an active lifestyle, so I love getting outside for a long afternoon walk. I would absolutely love to have your pup join me! Whether they need a quick walk or some extra exercise and attention during the day, I’d be happy to give them plenty of love and company while you’re away. I currently don’t offer boarding or daycare in my own home. I prefer to take the time to get to know each dog and their demeanor first so I can make sure they feel comfortable and safe in my care. When caring for your pup in your home, I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I’ll keep them active with long walks, play with them, and give them plenty of love, attention, and comfort while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re gone.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since high school and have 8+ years of experience. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve also helped care for my sister’s dogs, including disabled dogs that required extra attention and patience. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs, and understand how to adjust care based on their needs. I work virtually, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and give pets consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m a huge animal lover and vegan, so I take caring for animals very seriously and treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I work virtually and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to be home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, and stick closely to their normal routine. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special needs to make sure they feel secure and stress-free. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and even disabled dogs that require extra care and patience. I keep a clean, calm environment and provide close supervision at all times. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Tri thankfully accepted my last-minute request to watch my dog for the weekend. I have a very anxious dog, but Tri was able to keep her calm and give her all of the affection she desired. Tri sent many pictures and updates so I was able to enjoy my weekend away knowing that my dog was in great hands!”
“Alexis and Kevin are wonderful!! They are so kind, flexible, and understanding. Olly absolutely loves spending time with Icy, Boi, and Bean! Alexis sends lots of pictures when we are away on vacation. Olly is looking forward to the next time he gets to stay with them! Thanks Alexis& Kevin :-)”
“Ali was fantastic. Great communication and photos which confirmed that Rosie was very happy! It was clear she really enjoyed having Rosie which made me even more comfortable. We will definitely use Ali again.”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
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.
