“Patty is the absolute best! She took such great care of my dog Pippa for an extended stay. She was so kind and communicative. She treated my little girl like she was her own. She and her husband are truly dog whisperers.”
“Olive had such a wonderful stay! Megan & Vitaliy were wonderful hosts. They kept us updated, sent lots of pictures & videos. We will definitely be rebooking with them again in the future!”
“I have a very anxious dog who doesn’t typically eat when we are away but Meagen did what she could to make her feel more comfortable and find something that she might eat. Our dog finally started playing a little with the other dogs so that was good to hear. It was nice for us to know she was well taken care of since it was stressful for me as well.”
“Barbara was amazing, she was able to take Lucy due to a family emergency and did such a wonderful job! Pictures every day of Lucy going on walks and snuggling with her family were very comforting. I am and will continue to be a repeat customer!”
“Dani and Anthony were so great with our pup! Super communicative (lots of pics) and really wanted to learn how to make Nala comfortable before dropping her off. They kept Nala happy and made her feel at home right away. Nala loved them so much she didn’t even want to come home - best Rover we’ve used!”
“Lori was fantastic! She was able to take Colby last minute, and it worked out perfectly. Lori was so sweet and I know that Colby was lovingly cared for. She sent us pictures and stayed in touch.”
“We left our yorkie, Richie with Julia for over a week and Julia took great care of Richie, took him on regular long walks, shared pictures and videos of Richie and ensured that he ate well and kept him comfortable in her home. Thanks to Julia we were worry free about Richie on our vacation”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“This was the first time my dogs stayed with a non family member so I was a littler nervous to leave them. Enrica took EXCELLENT care of my two Yorkies! She sent me updates and photos the entire time I was away which I absolutely loved. My dogs had so much fun with Enrica that the one had no interest in coming home, he just sat on her couch and looked at me. There was a nice fenced in yard to explore and it was clear they were spoiled. I would definitely send my dogs to stay with Enrica again! Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little unsure on the overall process and experience. My dog can be a little apprehensive and anxious at times, especially when meeting new people. Dawn alleviated any concerns I had from the moment she reached out. Ahead of my boarding time, Dawn was flexible and made herself available to do a meet and greet and showed me her home and let my dog explore to become familiar with the environment. During my time away, Dawn provided photos and updates each day. I highly recommend Dawn and know that you will be in good hands!”
“Ben was so great!! Took amazing care of my baby doodle and sent multiple updates. He was always available if I had questions. He was so friendly and clearly cared for my dog as if it was his own. I will definitely use again!!”
“Jim did an amazing job with my fur baby! He send me lots of pictures and gave me updates on how he was doing. His house is set up perfectly to accommodate any dog! Will absolutely be requesting his services again.”
“Alyssa did a great job taking care of Ratchet, she sent us updates and her 2 dogs got along well with ours. Our Rover.com experience was a good one thanks to Alyssa!”
“I can’t recommend Alexandra enough! She has been taking care of my dog, Milo, for quite some time now, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in her care. She and family truly treat Milo like he’s their own. He’s always so well cared for, loved, and honestly spoiled in the best way possible. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and it shows in everything she does. She’s reliable, kind, attentive, and always keeps me updated, which means so much. Milo is always happy to see her, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
“Yuiko was great! I'm a overprotective dog mom and my dogs are my world. I moved from Chicago and had to find a sitter. Im picky and don't choose just anyone to babysit my pups. Yuiko is the best! She's very great in communication and gives you updates on how their sleeping, eating, etc. And her kids are very sweet. I can tell from the photos my pups were having a blast! 100% A+++ safe, reliable and very sweet! I'll definitely be using her service again.”
“Juliana and her family embraced Aiden like one of their own. He was surrounded by love, constant attention, and she went above and beyond to make us feel secure and kept him safe. She kept in constant contact throughout the day with photo updates as well. I will work with Juliana EVERY single time as there is no one better who will value and love your pup as much she does!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Downingtown
Erica was a professional, compassionate, dependable, communicative caretaker for our dog from the first minute to the last. She took excellent care of our 9 yo Lab while we were in France for ten days. We are incredibly grateful and would request her services again in a heartbeat.
Lori took great care of my little Pomeranian while I was away on a family vacation. My dog had a great time and seeing the sweet look in his eyes as he said his goodbyes to Lori spoke volumes. While my dog is an easy keeper, he likes to be babied. Lori and her kids gave my little diva-boy all the attention he craved. I'd give Lori 6 six out of five stars if I could! Thanks, Lori. You are a delight!
This was Theo’s first time using Rover and his first extended stay away from us, so we were naturally nervous. Bart made the entire experience so much easier with regular updates and great communication, which gave us real peace of mind. Theo settled in well, got along with the other pets and kids, and came home happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found Bart and wouldn’t hesitate to trust him with Theo again. Thank you, Bart!
This was our first time using Lorraine and Rover. We couldn't have found a better person to watch our senior pooch. From our first meeting, we felt our girl was in a safe healthy environment and Lorraine was a caring, reliable sitter. Over the 2 week stay, Lorraine sent updates and pictures showing a contended, happy pooch. We highly recommend Lorraine. A+

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Downingtown on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,986 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Downingtown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Downingtown sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Downingtown landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Downingtown 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 Downingtown.
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 Downingtown 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.
