“Ron is abundantly kind, gentle, and caring! He sent me a ton of photos of my pup, and adhered to her schedule, was flexible for her needs, and more. Ron’s home is perfect for small to medium sized dogs and we will certainly be back!!”
“Julie and family took excellent care of my babies! I felt like they were treated like their own family dogs, with lots of love. I got picture updates everyday we were away and my dogs looked right at home and like they were having lots of fun. I really appreciate the great loving care! Thank you Julie!”
“Tori took great care of Ralphie while we were away. She sent frequent updates and pictures, and was very quick to communicate. I would definitely recommend her to pet owners and plan to use her again in the future!”
“After reading the reviews I felt Sylvie would be a great dog sitter for my little Rocco. She sent me pics and videos of rocco while I was gone and it made me miss him more lol I was happy to know that he was in good hands and got to play with a few more dogs while on his stay. I would recommend her and would definitely use her again. Thank you sylvie for taking care of my little Rocco.”
“We needed someone to watch our older dog while we were away for a week. Being new to the area we really didn't know anyone and we wanted our dog to be in a home environment where she wouldn't be alone. My wife found Cynthia on Rover and we went over to meet her. We were immediately impressed by the secure yard and surroundings. Our dog immediately bonded with her little dog Chewey. To make sure, we arranged two "play days" to make sure that all went well. Everything went better than expected and I, being an overly protective pet parent, felt at ease with leaving our dog for a week. I had nothing to worry about. Cynthia took great care of our dog, sent us regular updates including pictures and videos. She let our dog settle-in at her house where ever our dog felt most at ease and took her out for regular walks and time in the yard. When we came back we found that our dog had such a good time that I'm not sure she wanted to leave! Needless to say that Cynthia will be our first choice to watch our dog whenever the need arises! Your dog will be in good hands.”
“Darlene watched our little Sophie for 5 days, she sent pictures and communicated fast and friendly. Her environment is safe and dog friendly. She treated Sophie as part of her family. She took excellent care of our 12yr old pup, and I highly recommend her!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot recommend Mercedez highly enough! From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry baby in her care. Her passion for dogs is evident, and it was clear that my pup was going to be well-cared for. She took the time to understand my dog's personality, needs, and quirks, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for my pup. She also created a cozy environment at home. It was clear that my dog felt safe and happy, which is the most important thing for any pet parent. When I returned, my dog was healthy, happy, and even a little reluctant to leave. It was a relief knowing that my dog was in such capable hands. If you’re looking for a reliable, loving, and attentive dog sitter, look no further than Mercedez. I will definitely be booking her again for future trips! Thank you, Mercedez, for taking such wonderful care of my furry family member! 🐾❤️”
“This was my first experience needing a sitter for my dog. I will always take my dogs to her. She was amazing. She went above and beyond taking care of Nona. Nona became sick right before our flight and Allison gave her the proper medication and when Nona arrived home, she was back to her old self. I'm just so grateful for her helping Nona recover. Allison sent me pictures and updates every day. I would highly recommend her to others. I will definitely use her next year.”
“Danielle was amazing with our Harley! She’s very organized and easy to communicate with. I felt she treated Harley like she would her own pup as she included in her activities, took her on walks and car rides and provided enrichment activities for her”
“Michelle is AMAZING! She gave Rebel love and care as if her were her own. She sent daily pictures of their walks, and play time. I highly recommend considering Michelle for your pet-sitting needs. She definitely exceeded our expectations.”
“Wilson loved his stay with Kiana and Klayton. We were nervous about leaving him with strangers, however, it was apparent when I first got to their home that he would not be a stranger for long. They sent pictures of his adventures during his stay. Kiana and Klayton seem to have a genuine love for animals. I will definitely consider them for future stays.”
“Patricia was an exceptional caregiver to my corgi. We had a good meet and greet and Pat was very prompt with communications as we set up the day/time to drop off and pick up my dog. She sent me photos throughout his stay with her, took him on multiple daily walks, followed his feeding regime and was just wonderful! I would recommend her services to any dog owner with confidence. I will be contacting her in the future whenever I need dog sitting services- she is my go to person for my corgi.”
“Shawna and Ethan are amazing. They are both clearly "dog people" and make sure Rocky has a great time every time she stays with them. They also send me pictures to make sure I'm up to date with how much fun Rocky is having with them and their two adorable dogs. Highly recommend.”
About: I make sure babies are taken care of. I’ll play with them, take them for walks if they’re not too big to take me for a walk ha! I am also taking courses for pet training so if you don’t mind, your baby may also be able to help me learn as well. I’m currently working part time. I need something pups to watch to fill in the rest of my days. Do not see myself working full time in the near future. I have a fenced yard and 1 very playful SheepDoodle. He loves people and loves to chase and be chased around the yard all day if he could.
“Steve did a great job caring for my 115 lbs German Shepard mixed dog. She had a great time with her little buddies (smaller dogs). I would definitely recommend Steve. My dog has special needs since she has bad hip dysplasia. Steve had no problem taking care of her. He gave her her supplements and she did well.”

Thomas took great care of my dog. She had recently had surgery and needed some extra care, and she came home happy and the vet gave her good marks for healing up. I couldn't be happier. I really appreciate his willingness to adjust as my travel schedule shifted. I will definitely call him again when I need to board my dog.

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 Drexel-Alvernon 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 Drexel-Alvernon 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 Drexel-Alvernon.
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 Drexel-Alvernon. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Drexel-Alvernon 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 AZ 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.
