“Rob was really great boarding our golden retriever, Archie. You can tell Rob takes pride in being on Rover and being a good caregiver to pets. He took many pics for us, was responsive and even made sure that Archie was comfortable during a few big storms. Went the extra mile and even got extra bones etc. for him.”
“Awesome sitter, would recommend her to watch any dog. Hopefully she would be willing to watch my Bray again. I had clear, consistent, and prompt responses and even photos. Crimean truly is an awesome sitter and animal lover.”
“Mariia was amazing! She became best friends with our cat, taking care of her for 2 whole weeks while we were abroad. She communicated with us well and was flexible with our schedule!”
“Marlow seemed to have a great time at her home away from home! Was wonderful to get daily photos and updates of her while we were away allowing us to relax knowing she was settled in with an abundance of cuddles and playtime with her new friend Molly.”
“Ryan watched our girl for 12 days while we were away. We appreciated the daily pictures he sent us and that he let us know how she was doing. Our girl must have been nervous because she had accidents while we were away, which is unlike her. She wore her reusable diapers from then on, which was less than ideal. However, given the circumstances it’s understandable, and she appeared safe, which is what mattered most to us while we were away.”
“Andrew & Jacklynn works really well as a team. Communication and response times are impeccable. They offered a meet and greet which made the handoff for drop off really easy. Our dog looked really happy in all the photos we received. When we got home he was exhausted. Highly recommend. Will be using them again when the time comes.”
“Daniel was great with both of my dogs Lots of pictures and has the perfect approach for handling dogs. Property is impressive with a lot of room for our dogs to roam”
“Bernie had SUCH a good time at Amanda's place. She and her husband provide a great experience for dogs, and Bernie was able to run and play with friends every day. Amanda provided regular updates and photos which gave us peace of mind that Bernie was being well cared for. The big doggie smiles in the photos made it evident that he was being looked after quite well. Amanda runs a very professional operation and shows great concern for all of the pets in her care. We would bring Bernie back in a heartbeat!”
“I had to go on something like 6 trips over the past couple of months and booked Jeffrey every time. He is the best dog sitter I have ever hired. He is extremely flexible, an excellent communicator, kind, and has a great, safe space for dogs to play inside and outside. You will not go wrong booking with Jeffrey.”
“Our dog loved boarding at Heather's! She has a great outdoor space for the dogs. Heather kept us updated on how he was doing and sent daily pictures. I will definitely board Gordon with her again!”
About: Ever since i was a kid i went to some of my neighbors dogs to ask to play with them. For many years, me and my family have dogsit many of my moms friends dogs at our house for extended periods of time. Im currently working part time couple days a week at a retirement community and a full time student locally at bucks county community college. I also play baseball for my community college. We have 2-3 hour practices 5 days a week with games. However since im local i can drop by and walk dogs with the free time that i have which during the week is when im not in class or at baseball. I care with them using quality time. I enjoy playing and sitting with them whichever they prefer. I believe i take care of myself well and i want to do the same for the dog.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog and cat owner and love all animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs and I’m looking forward to getting to know yours! I treat every pet in my car like family and provide a safe calm and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available to accommodate different routines depending on your pet’s needs. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable and cared for. I take time to learn each pets routine personality, and individual needs so I can provide an environment where they can relax and feel at home.
“Andrew was wonderful from start to finish. He was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and flexible- we had to adjust our days after booking due to an unexpected funeral and he made the changes quickly. Our dog got really great care with frequent updates and pics and it was very clear Andrew really enjoys taking care of animals! Would highly recommend. Thank you!!”
About: As dog parents with experience in fostering, we know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. We’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routine, and favorite things so they feel comfortable while you’re away. We understand that every dog is different, some love playtime and long walks, while others prefer a slower pace and extra cuddles. We will follow your care instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel connected and confident that your dog is being cared for. I work a very flexible hybrid schedule, and my husband works fully remotely, so someone is always home throughout the day. Caring for our own dogs is already part of our daily routine, and we work together to provide potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. We believe walks and enrichment are important parts of keeping dogs happy and fulfilled. We make time for walks that let dogs set the pace and enjoy plenty of sniffing, along with enrichment activities tailored to their interests and energy levels. We also enjoy visiting local parks and fields for more exploring. At home, we have a tether anchored in the backyard for supervised outdoor time, and we will always follow your dog’s comfort level and preferences when/if you prefer for it to be used. Before booking, we’ll discuss your pet’s needs and usual routine to make sure our schedule and activities are a good fit. Whether your pet stays in our home or I visit them in yours, their safety and comfort are always a priority. Before booking, we’ll discuss their personality, routines, and any special needs so we can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. For stays in our home, we’ll arrange a meet-and-greet to see how your dog gets along with ours and make sure everyone is a good fit. We’ll discuss feeding arrangements, supervision, and any boundaries your dog needs, including having their own space to relax. Outdoor tether time is always supervised and only offered with your approval. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, and home security. We’ll also go over any triggers, escape tendencies, or other concerns so I know what to watch for. You’ll receive photos and updates, and your pet will get plenty of attention, patience, and care.
“Highly recommend Olivia! I’m new to the area and don’t know a lot of people so leaving my dog (Indy) for 5 days was very scary for me. Olivia answered all the questions I had to make sure I felt at ease leaving Indy with her. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior. She was very responsive throughout the stay and sent me a lot of pictures and videos to ensure Indy was okay! I could tell she quickly warmed up to Olivia and had a great time playing with her and the other dogs. We will definitely be back.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dublin
If we could leave more than five stars, we would. Jelly was so loved by this wonderful family that I think he would have stayed longer if he had a choice. Communication, dependability, peace of mind—Amanda provided all of that and more. This will be Jelly’s family when we are out of town from now on, no question.
Amanda was very accommodating and helpful with our last minute request to take care of our dog for two weeks. She sent us pictures and gave us updates while we were away. Amanda treated our fury best friend like her own. We are very thankful for the care she gave our sweet Charlie. Thanks Amanda!

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.
93% of sitters in Dublin 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 Dublin 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 Dublin.
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 Dublin. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 Dublin 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.
