“Gregory watched our mini golden for 6 days and was super communicative keeping us updated on how she was adjusting and sending lots of pictures. She had a great time”
“Katherine was amazing! Her home is pet friendly and impeccably clean. My puppy was spoiled by both her and having a fenced backyard to sun bathe in. She provided routine updates and pictures, and was flexible on the drop off and pick up times. I felt my puppy was well cared for during her stay. I would highly recommend her for future sitting.”
“Very friendly and sent tons of pictures. Our little guy seemed like he had a great time and came home completely exhausted. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks!”
“Exceptional care by Emeline! She communicated daily with pictures and my dog was extremely comfortable with her. Will absolutely book another stay for Sage again. Thanks so much for taking great care of our baby!”
“Lizzy was fantastic - good communication, easy to make arrangements, and most importantly, great with my pups. They came back happy and healthy and obviously had a great time. Thanks!”
“Maryori was the perfect choice for our fur baby Bentley. She was very warm and welcoming, and she made our boy feel right at home. He spent his birthday with her and she went out of her way to buy him a few gifts and treats which we appreciated very much! I will definitely book her again.”
“Chelsea had another great visit with Kerry, she is awesome! She provides regular updates along with photos. I highly recommend her and will continue to utilize her services.”
“Nicolle, care and pictures of my dog Spot made my stay away from him enjoyable. First time we were separated a long period of time. Will gladly as for Nicolle again. Will gladly recommend Rover to family and friends. My daughter n law recommended, glad she did. Gave tip directly to Nicolle when picked up Spot. Didn't know to use system.”
“It's so nice to be able to leave your fur babies in the hands of a competent, capable and caring person like Jessica. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that our dogs were in loving hands. She even managed to squeeze in a bath and toe nail trim! She also sent us pictures through their stay to let me see they were fine. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi! I'm Elena, and I genuinely love animals. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every pet has its own routine and needs, so l always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm responsible, patient, and detail-oriented. I'll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and affection. I mostly work from home, so I have plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide regular walks, playtime, attention, and care. I provide a safe, comfortable, and calm environment for every pet. I always follow their usual routine, feeding schedule, and care instructions, and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and playtime.
“We love Danielle, Wade, and especially Jones. They take great care of our dog and send us daily updates. They are great communicators. Jones is the sweetest golden retriever and shares all of his toys and even his bed with our girl. Our dog is highly anxious, but Jones helps her feel safe.”
“Kristina was awesome! She sent daily updates and pictures which I really appreciated, took Mika on daily walks, and really made me feel like she gave her special attention and care! We look forward to using Kristina in the future!”
“Yulia & Kevin are great! I will be a repeat customer, they took excellent care of my pup. I got pictures and videos while I was away so I knew my pup was happy!!!”
“Bryce was fantastic! Teddy loved being there and will still try to go into the house any time we walk past, which I take as a great sign! Will 100% be booking again when needed.”
“Zenith cared for my dog from February 19–22, and I am so grateful for her. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent sweet updates, photos, and videos that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear she treated him with genuine love and care, just like I would. I never once worried while I was away. I would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pup.”
“Nicole was a great surrogate mom for chaos while we went away for the weekend. She sent pictures and updates regularly, and tried lots of solutions to get him to eat when he wasn't in the mood. We'd definitely leave our old dog with her again!”
“Our pup Kody was happy as a clam and in great hands while we were on vacation. 1. Daily updates (pics / vids) 2. Very friendly 3. Flexible schedule What more could you ask for? 😁”

Lizzy took wonderful care of my dog over a weekend at her house, and I would definitely send my pup to Lizzy’s again for a stay! My dog has anxiety and takes daily medication, and Lizzy had no issues providing her care. Lizzy was very communicative providing updates and answering questions with quick responses. My pup loved spending time in her spacious, fenced in backyard and came home very happy!
Ilana was absolutely wonderful. I get nervous leaving my dog with new people, but she is so caring and well-informed. From the first meet and greet, I could tell Ilana was extremely invested and knowledgeable about pet sitting. She asked insightful questions that helped me fill out my dog's care plan more carefully. During the visit, I received tons of pictures and updates. My dog doesn't always like to go on walks, but Ilana kept me in the loop on what their activities were for the day. I received many videos of my dog playing with her interactive feeder toys or chasing a ball around with Ilana. I felt confident that she was getting plenty of exercise and stimulation during the stay. My dog seemed relaxed and comfortable when I picked her up. I will definitely be using Ilana again in the future!
Jacob was great with our dog while we were away for two weeks. He was easy to communicate with prior to the trip and set up a meet and greet so we could make sure Lacey was comfortable with him and in his home. During the trip he provided daily updates and even bought her a new frisbee when she tore hers up playing. Would definitely trust Jacob with our dog again next time we travel!
Joseph was fantastic with our pooch Ned. We recieved solid updates and a good amount of photos. Ned gets a little nervous at first when he is at a new sitters house, but he quickly relaxed and was hanging out with Joseph and some other pooches. Highly recommend Joseph and he comes and more reasonable price than many.
Jacqueline is the best dog sitter! She had a handful with my rescue Dude, a Shih Tzu mix. He was not medicated enough, because I did not realize that he was not quite as comfortable as he seemed at the Meet & Greet. Jacqueline called us, and we figured out a different medication schedule which did work. I recommend this sitter highly!
Sam and her daughter took care of our Bernese Mountain dog for three weeks while we were gone over the summer. She was easy to schedule with, and responsive when we checked in to see how things were going. She was thoughtful about introducing our dog to her dog (as well as her cats). Our dog came home happy! I would recommend Sam if you are looking for a dog sitter!
Barbara was great with Java Chip! She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, followed all care instructions, and made Java Chip feel right at home in a clean, safe environment. Barabara genuinely loves the dogs in her care. We'll definitely book with Barbara again!
I can't thank Lindsay enough for taking such amazing care of my 10-year-old dog, Peanut. I had a family emergency and needed to travel unexpectedly, and she accepted my last-minute request without hesitation. This was the very first time I had ever left Peanut with anyone, so I was incredibly nervous. Lindsay made the entire experience so much easier by sending me regular updates, messages, and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She and her family treated Peanut like he was one of their own. They were patient, loving, and attentive to his needs, and I could tell he was well cared for and comfortable. Knowing my senior pup was in such good hands meant the world to me during a difficult time. I wholeheartedly recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter. Thank you, Lindsay, for everything you did for Peanut—we are so grateful!
Katherine was an absolute life saver and caregiver to our dog, Mandy, while we were on vacation. She had recently had some swelling due to a bug bite. It was horrible timing to go on vacation, but Katherine had everything under control and made sure to let me know everyday how she was doing. She had to give her medicine multiple times per day and had no problems. I appreciated all of the daily pictures, videos and even the way they included Mandy in their 4th of July celebration. I highly recommend her. And I’m grateful to have found a dependable dog sitter for our next out of town event. Thank you again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Elkins Park on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 3,397 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Elkins Park. About 89% of Elkins Park sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
