“I absolutely love Debbie and Adam. They took such great care of my chihuahua, Ozzie. I got lots of pictures sent to me and I could see both of them involved with loving care for him. They have two small dogs of their own and one of them shared her bed with Ozzie so he’d be happy! I highly recommend them and will definitely use them from now on.”

“Canela loved staying with Jessica, Ted, and their kids! We received many photo updates which we greatly appreciated. It was also great that the family was able to stay with Canela most of the time, as she is used to people being around most of the day. She came home to us happy, healthy, and worn out from all her playing during what we would call a 5 star stay!”

About: I've had animals since I was born. Mostly cats until I moved out on my own 9 years ago. Now I have 3 love bugs of dogs and 4 kitties! I've fostered dozens of cats and have been pet sitting since I was a teen. I love ALL animals :) I keep things low-stress: fresh water, playtime, belly rubs, and plenty of pics so you don’t miss a second. Whether you need a quick potty break or a week-long house sit, I’ll treat your furbaby like family. I’d love to meet your pets!! I work part time as a school bus driver. I am home for several hours throughout the day and home most evenings as well as weekends. I have a large home if day care or boarding is what you are seeking. I do have 3 dogs that are all great with other dogs. I have cats but they live on their own floor. I live on some land but I do not have a fenced yard but I do have leads if the pup isn't up for a full walk. I love a good routine. I will do my best to incorporate your schedule into mine. We're very flexible.

Brook did a great job with my dogs. We did a meet and greet with her dog a week before their stay. She sent a lot of pictures and updates during their stay. I had to extend my dogs' stay due to a delay in our travel. Brook accommodated the change. My dogs came home happy and healthy.

Madyson is an absolute lifesaver! Leaving manxious dog who craves constant proximity is always stressful, but she went above and beyond to make her feel completely at home. She took the extra time to send daily pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog was so comfortable from the moment we arrived and loved her sweet pup as well. I would absolutely choose her again and again :) She is truly the BEST choice for boarding!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Elco

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 797 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elco. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

94% of sitters in Elco 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 Elco 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 Elco.

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 Elco. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 Elco 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.
