“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Brooke, Jeremy and Family were absolutely wonderful! Five stars, 10/10 ! Thank you for the care and attention you gave our Pomeranian babies! The daily photos made us so happy!”
“Isabella takes such wonderful care of Jax. She is a very sweet peron and very responsive. He always seems so happy when I drop him off and pick him up. He loves her dog. They play alot. I'm grateful to not have to worry when I am away.”
“Scott loves dog and my dog had a great time with him. What attracted my attention at the beginning was Scott’s long term experience of taking care of dogs and turned a rescued dog into a therapy dog. During meet and greet, Scott was transparent and he told me his life stories particularly with dogs by showing many pictures. He missed his last dog Jack very much. He also patiently learned my dog’s behavior in order to make my dog being less stressful and comfortable during boarding. He was willing to make changes to accommodate my dog’s behavior and he prepared well before I dropped off my dog. He updated me at least once a day with multiple pictures. I could see my dog was happy, playful and tired. When I picked up my dog, Scott reviewed details with me what happened during my dog’s stay. I highly recommend Scott being your dog sitter. Your dog will be in good hands.”
“Johanny is an amazing sitter. I completely trust her with my dog. She make sure to send me updates with photos and videos regularly. She is always available via text.”
“Theresa and her entire family have truly treated Sissy like family. Everything from drop off to pick up was easy and seamless. I have so much peace about leaving my dog for an entire week knowing how much she was going to be loved and cared for. We cannot thank you enough! Sissy loves you all!”
“So patient and kind with Oona. She was so well cared for during her stay and I received many pictures and videos while I was away! Was a joy to book with and would book with again! Thank you Equasia!”
“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.”
“We had a sick family member and needed someone to watch Hugs in a pinch. Tiffany was great with Hugs and super responsive. We appreciate her taking her on such late notice. Hugs had a great time and it is good knowing someone will treat your pet like family while you are away. Thanks Tiffany!!”
“Our girl Luna was in very good hands here, she felt right at home and was taken very good care of. Thank you so much Michael! We appreciate all you did for our girl while we went on vacation. We would definitely book with you again in the future!!”
“Carole was so great with our 3 Bernese Mountain Dogs. It was very comforting not having to worry while on vacation knowing she was taking great care of them! They can be a handful sometimes. Carole sent pictures and an update everyday”
“Tim was awesome with our dog, he helped keep her happy so we could have a stress free trip. He kept us updated and checked in often and was accommodating in every way! His dog is great with other dogs so she enjoyed all of the company.”
“Missy was great with Meadow. She’s very responsive to messages. Meadow looked so happy in the pics. She came home happy and tired from all the fun she had with Nissy and the other I would definitely recommend her services.”
“Reshma was absolutely wonderful! I was so nervous about leaving my boy with someone and she made it an absolutely wonderful, stress free experience. She went above and beyond giving him extra care when he was having anxiety and sending us daily pictures and updates. I truly could not be happier with how well cared for and loved he was with her. He loved her so much that he almost didn't want to leave! I could not be more thankful and as long as Reshma is doing this I will never board him with anyone else!”
About: Hi! I’m Jen, a lifelong dog lover with a soft spot for rescues and senior pups. I recently said goodbye to my own dog, Eric, a golden mix I rescued at one year old and was lucky to have for almost 15 years. Caring for him through every stage of life gave me deep experience, patience, and a genuine understanding of what dogs need to feel safe, loved, and happy. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, companionship, and timely care, never rushed or left alone for long stretches. I truly miss having a dog around for daily walks, company, and that quiet joy dogs bring to everyday life, and pet sitting has been a wonderful way to share that love again. I’m active and enjoy walks that match your dog’s energy level, whether that’s a relaxed stroll or something a bit more adventurous. I also volunteer with a nonprofit called Hauling Hopes, which has further strengthened my comfort with different dog personalities and needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m attentive to feeding, walks, playtime, and medications, and I closely monitor behavior and wellbeing. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, pets get plenty of attention, companionship, and timely potty breaks. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Our Cavapoo Rosa had the best time at Tracy's. She loved playing with Tracy's children and the whole family was just so nice. I don't think Rosa really wanted to come home! Tracy sent me updates and photos at regular intervals so I had no worries.”
“To sum it up in one word AMAZING! This was my first time Isabella has not been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Maria and her family took wonderful care of her. I got pictures and updates multiple times a day. Maria responded quickly if I had any questions. She also checked with me prior to doing anything we did not discuss at drop off to be sure I was ok with it. Isabella had such a wonderful time I don’t think she wanted to leave lol. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”
“At this point David has become family. I am truly grateful to have found such a kindhearted and genuine person to look after my baby. I had an urgent need for his services and he responded right away. His kind words were much needed during my trip, and as always he kept me updated on Phoenix. I knew from our first contact that David had an amazing spirit. I can’t thank you enough for your kindness and support during my time of travels.”
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have always had a natural connection with them. Although this is my first time offering pet sitting professionally, my veterinary background means I can recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort quickly — giving pet owners extra peace of mind. I treat every dog/cat like my own. I’m currently not working, so I’m available most of the day, every day. The only exception is Monday and Wednesday mornings, when I have English classes. Outside of that, I’m fully dedicated to giving pets the time and attention they deserve. I live in a spacious 3-story apartment with a balcony, and the surrounding area has plenty of grass and green spaces — perfect for walks and outdoor time. I don’t have pets of my own, so your furry friend will have my undivided attention in a calm, pet-friendly environment.
“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Emmaus
Timothy took excellent care of our dog. He fed her as requested and gave her daily morning walks of up to 3 miles. His fenced in back yard was enough for her to play with his dog, and they got along great instantly. During the hottest week of the summer so far, Tim gave her lots of indoor A/C time to ensure our fur ball remained cool. All-in-all it was a great week for Gemma and you could tell when we picked her up that she really liked Tim.
Yoko is the best with our Kendra. Millie, her dog, gets along so well with Kendra.... best buddies. I'm sure they will miss each other when we get back to our normal routine. Excellent communication with pictures and excellent care for our dog, Kendra. Thanks so much!!!
Theresa and her entire family have truly treated Sissy like family. Everything from drop off to pick up was easy and seamless. I have so much peace about leaving my dog for an entire week knowing how much she was going to be loved and cared for. We cannot thank you enough! Sissy loves you all!
My dog Esco really enjoyed the several days he spent with Scott! Scott is definitely a dog lover and made Esco feel right at home, giving him total access to his bed and furniture. Scott also took Esco for a couple of walks at a local park every day and spent a lot of time out in his fenced yard exercising him as well. He was also totally accommodating with a last-minute request to give my dog medication while he was there. Scott was also great about sending lots of pictures every day and letting me know how Esco was doing throughout the day! I am relieved to know that I won’t have to be concerned the next time I have to travel!
I was very pleased with the care that Kelly B. provided for Winnie. Winnie felt right at home from the moment she met Kelly! Kelly is kind and caring and provides a safe environment. I’ll definitely be booking Winnie with Kelly B again! I’d give her 10 stars if I could!
Alicia provided an Excellent stay for Gia, my 4yr old Female Yellow Labradoodle! She sent us many photos of their activities and times of Gia and Tihly, her doodle, having fun together. Knowing Gia was a strong dog, we agreed for Alicia to get another collar, a Gental leader, so it would be easier for her to control Gia.Alicia has a great personality to work with dogs, showing patience and love for her animals. We provided a Tip for her to show our Appreciation, and she was very grateful. We would reccomend Alicia in the future, and hope we have an opportunity for her to take Gia again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Emmaus
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Emmaus on Rover is $49.86 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 931 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Emmaus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Emmaus sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Emmaus landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Emmaus 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 Emmaus.
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.
You and your Emmaus 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.
