“Glen was AMAZING !!!!! I have a Pomsky puppy that loves !!!! To play !! And seeks all the attention and love she can get from someone !!! Glen was very attentive to her needs ! Very Thankful for finally finding a sitter we feel comfortable leaving our baby with !!! Thanks again Glen for being sooo incredible !”
“Laura, her family and the other dogs are now part of my dogs vacation visits. They like going, have a blast in the yard and with the gang and I feel comfortable having them there. Snoopy and Patches will be staying there for all of my work trips.”
“The best sitters ever. We have been sending our pups to Karen and Donald since 2019. They take excellent care of them and treat them as their own. I wouldn't want any other sitters.”
“Very caring and very professional. I knew when I met her that my dog was in good hands. He’s never been away overnight with someone else. He handled it well because it’s obvious she loves animals and knows how to take care of them. Highly recommend.”
“Daniella was absolutely amazing with my dog! He is usually very anxious when meeting new people and often won’t eat, but he was so comfortable with her that he happily ate his dinner. I really appreciated the photo updates throughout the visit—it put my mind at ease knowing he was happy. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer and Jon were fantastic!! Our 8 month old King Charles Spaniel was taken care of and treated like family. We were sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend and were kept updated about Maisy’s activities. It was wonderful to go away for the weekend and have no worries that our puppy was in great hands. We will definitely have our precious puppy stay with them again!! We give Jennifer and Jon our highest recommendation without reservation!!”
“Adam did a great job boarding and caring for our 80lb higher energy labrador. Very communicative and sent pictures. We also requested Adam apply an allergy meds which he was great at. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Adam!”
“Joann and Angelina were amazing with our dog! My Sully is a very anxious pup and attached to his humans. This makes it hard to leave him with someone new. Joann and Angelina made this difficult thing to do so much easier! Joann texted me throughout the day and even sent me some pictures to assure me that he was okay. Oh and their dog Remi is such a sweet boy and loves people and was so good with accepting my dog as well. Our day went longer than we expected and Joann and Angelina were willing to help out longer than expected. I am so thankful to them for taking care of my dog and will definitely book with them again when needed.”
“Absolutely wonderful taking care of Jasper. He had a great time there. Avary does a great job of keeping in touch and sending pictures. Jasper came back tired, so I know he was having a lot of fun. I will not hesitate to have Avary watch him anytime we go on trips.”
“Alexandra was super great to leave Blue with! I was reassured throughout my trip that Blue was in safe hands and it looked like she had the best time. This was a very last minute booking too so I am very grateful that Alexandra was able to take Blue in for the week!”
“We left our boy with Cristel for 4 nights when we had to go out of town. She kept us updated with photos and videos at different times throughout the days to make sure we knew he was being taken care of. Baxter seemed relaxed and content when we picked him up. Would be glad to use Cristel again. Thank you!”
“We couldn't have been more blessed to find a loving person to watch over our baby. He is spoiled at home by his mommy, so he doesn't like to be left out of our daily routine. Allie communicated with us on a daily basis so we could enjoy our time with our daughter's family. We had never left our baby with a sitter, so it was emotionally hard for us, but after seeing many photos of our son being loved by Allie and her daughter, we will definitely use her services again. We highly recommend her as a top choice to watch your pet; she's an angel.”
“Jule took the such good care of my two Portuguese water dogs. They took such a liking to her and you could tell how comfortable they were around her. Any time I need dog care in the area she will be my first call!”
About: When I was growing up I was the family dog sitter, the business just grew, word spread, and that's when I knew I had a calling! I am a full-time student with flexible hours, I am able to be an active caregiver to your fur babies and I am committed to giving them all the playtime they would! Despite having class some days I am able to arrange and work around the schedule I have. I have a dog-friendly apartment, with a balcony, and quite a few parks nearby! I also have Tempe town lake very close by! We will have so much fun!
About: I've been professionally caring for pets for over four years through my home-based pet sitting business, Yech's Pet Haven. I am also a licensed boarding facility, giving pet parents added peace of mind that their dogs are staying in a safe and compliant environment. During that time, I've cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special routines or medications. I have experience safely managing multiple dogs, supervising playtime, and making sure every pet receives the individual attention they deserve. Growing up surrounded by animals, including dogs, horses, and goats, has given me a lifelong understanding of animal behavior and care. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, low-stress environment where every pet feels right at home while you're away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. Since I run a home-based boarding facility, I am able to provide frequent attention, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and supervision throughout the day. I keep my boarding numbers small so each pet receives personalized care and plenty of one-on-one attention. My schedule is built around making sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their family is away. I provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. As a licensed boarding facility, I prioritize cleanliness, safety, and responsible pet care. I carefully manage introductions, supervise interactions, and separate pets during meals, rest time, or whenever needed. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and individual preferences, so they feel right at home.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in East Side is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Side
My wife and I are very protective of our little dachshund Wella. When we read Julie's first response to our request, we knew right away that she and her family were the mature and responsible people we could trust to watch our dog. Julie sent multiple updates and photos to us while she had Wella, and that was very nice and reassuring. They did so great with Wella that she seemed to want to stay longer! The kids played so much with Wella that she needed to sleep in the next day! Great experience with Julie and her family and We are looking forward to using her again !!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. 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.
96% of sitters in East Side 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 East Side 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 East Side.
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 East Side. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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 East Side 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.
