“Megan had no problem accepting a last minute booking for Roscoe’s stay. She set up a meet and greet, that was very convenient and accommodating. Megan sent photos and updates throughout his stay. Communication was excellent ! Highly recommend Megan and will definitely use her in the future.”
“Michael and Perla were awesome. Always quick to reply, were flexible when I had to change dates/times, and my pup was clearly well-cared for. Thank you again!”
“I left for the weekend and my cat couldn’t be in any better hands. He played with my cat everyday and sent me pictures, great guy, great cat sitter, and great accommodations for my cat 10/10 would recommend”
“Melinda was amazing with her updates and communication and I will definitely be boarding my dog with her in the future! I was nervous at first because my beagle Oscar is timid and has never stayed at someone’s home before, but he slowly came out of his shell while he was with Melinda and he was obviously well taken care of the two weeks she had him. I absolutely recommend Melinda and have already passed on her information to a couple of friends who are looking for pet sitting in the future. Thanks Melinda, you made Oscar feel at home and I’m glad he stayed with you!”
“We had quickly sold our home and needed to go house shopping. Andrew agreed to watch our gooldendoodle on short notice. When we got back in town our pup seemed happy. I would recommend Andrew”
“My dog Kai had the greatest time! I could tell when I picked her up that she wasn’t antsy to leave and looked healthy and cared for. She didn’t seem stressed out. Kimberly did such a great job at making me feel at ease and I didn’t feel worried at all with Kai being away. Will definitely be using Kimberly again!”
“Leidy, was wonderful providing some updates and understanding my boy. She provided care and walks and came back smelling better than before. I see attention to detail and real care in her work. Thank you so much for taking so much care while I was away look forward to returning him again to your care in future.”
“It’s been a number of years since we have asked a non-family member to take care of the pups, so we were thrilled to find Emanuel who welcomed Tilley and Houdini into his home and treated them like family.”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“Laura was great with our dog Shadow. He has anxiety and she was very patient with him. She kept us up to date on how he was doing. We definitely will be using her as our dog sitter in the future.”
“Excellent sitter! Tracy was very responsive, took great care of our dog, and sent daily updates with photos without being asked. Everything went smoothly and our dog was safe and happy. Highly recommend.”
“Very nice family that took great care of our dog. Very responsive with all communications and sent updates. Our dog required medicine and that was no issue. Would highly recommend and of course I would use again without hesitation. Thank you”
“Thanks for watching my boy, I can tell he really enjoyed himself. The communication was great and I appreciated the updates by way of photos, videos and text. Highly recommend Renata”
“Kind , courteous, and most experienced sitter I’ve had a chance to meet, goes above and beyond just watching your dog . I’ll be taking my dog to Christian anytime I need a sitter.”
“We were desperate last minute for someone to watch our dog on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We reached out to Lydianis and her husband Alex on Rover. They were very quick to respond and continued with good communication throughout the entire time they had my dog. They took the time, at a very busy time of year, to meet us on the Sunday before at a local park and introduced their beautiful Lab Chase to us. Seeing how well they handled Chase and how understanding they were of Clementine’s intimidation, really eased our minds of my small dog being around a bigger dog and it showed how compassionate these two fun dog loving people are towards their guest dogs and owners. Prior to Clem's stay, they asked all the right questions about how to care for her and what they could do to help with any anxiety, when to feed her how much, etc., We felt very comfortable with them and liked both of them very much! We will definitely be calling again to have them watch our little fur baby!”
“Liceth was extremely patient and intuitive when it came to my Rusty. She had very good advice with awesome insight. I felt comfortable in her approach and she has a pleasant demeanor. I would totally recommend Liceth to anyone I know. Thank you, Liceth for your time and dedication to my lil Rusty. Keep up the great work.”

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.
93% of sitters in Eckville 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 Eckville 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 Eckville.
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 Eckville. On Rover:
- 88% 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 Eckville 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.
