“Tim and his family were great for our dog. He stayed with them for 5 days. Tim was good about communicating as we were setting up a meet and greet and also while he watched our dog. We weren't sure how our dog would get along with his 2 dogs, but his dogs were very friendly and sweet. We had no worries about them getting along. His whole family came out to meet our dog at the meet and greet. They were all very nice and you could tell they all like dogs. Our dog came back to us happy and healthy. I would recommend Tim and plan to schedule with him in the future.”
“I can’t say enough about how wonderful Mary was for Ginger (and Us). Thank you Mary for all you did to take such great care with our girl. We were daily in the loop on how Ginger was doing with pictures and videos that were amazing - Mary should consider going into pet photography. Mary gladly adjusted with us to keep Ginger when our return had to be delayed due to a winter storm. You can tell that Mary really cared for Ginger. We will use her again very soon.”
“Julie, her husband Tim, and their doggy Meeko were such amazing hosts to our pup! We were in Lancaster from out of state for our wedding weekend, and these folks put us so much at ease. All of the updates showed how happy Chubs was - or also how tired he was from getting so much play and love all day! Thank you Julie and Tim!!!!”
“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”
“Our boy absolutely loved his overnight experience with DP!! 🐾❤️ He was happy from drop-off all the way through pickup. DP was amazing—she shared pictures throughout his stay and had excellent communication the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be boarding him here again in the future! Highly recommend! 🐶👏”
“Curtis took really good care of our dog while we were away. He was really excellent with updating us with pictures and how our dog was doing. Curtis made my dog feel comfortable and at ease. If i ever need a dog sitter, Curtis will be my first choice.”
“We were a little nervous as this was our first time using Rover but we could not have had a better experience! Samantha responded right away and answered all our questions. Our dog Opa! actually ate there which she does not always do at a new place the first day so we know she was happy there. We received updates and pictures from Samantha. it was a great experience. We highly recommend Samantha and we definitely will book with her again in the future if we are in the area!”
“Liceth was awesome! It was my first time using Rover and she helped me through the process. Enjoyed our meet and greet to get everyone acclimated and she did an amazing job over the weekend and sent plenty of pics. Will definitely be using Liceth again!”
“Julie was absolutely fantastic with my two special needs dogs. They are diabetic and their blood sugar was perfect when they returned home! Her care was EXCELLENT and our girls pouted all the way home! Thank you Miss Julie!!!”
“It was a last minute booking and Jennifer was available for us. Communication was good and she was prompt to answer our messages. Thanks for taking really good care of our baby and for the pictures of our dog while in your care. I will definitely book with Jennifer again!!”
“Our pups had another amazing stay with Dawn! She watched our two German Shepherds, one of them being only 6 months, and they came back so happy and tired! Dawn always puts any nerves I have at ease, she sends very detailed updates and photos and makes sure our dogs are safe, happy, and well exercised! We have used Dawn in the past and will continue to use her in the future! I truly feel like it’s a little vacation for our pups! Thank you Dawn!”
“Ashley was amazing with Waffles! She and her kids gave him lots of love, attention, walks, and playtime. Waffles can be sensitive to certain floors and steps, and Ashley was so patient and made sure he was comfortable. She also had a dog at home, so Waffles had a furry friend around while we were away! She sent the perfect number of pictures and videos and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind knowing he was doing well. Waffles came home happy and healthy, and it was obvious he had a great time. We would definitely have Ashley watch him again! ❤️”
About: I have experience caring for dogs for family and neighbors for several years. I provide reliable attentive care and will make sure your pet will feel safe and loved while you are away! I have a 4 year old Shiba Inu at home so I’m used to dogs with personality. He might growl at first but has always gotten along with the dogs we’ve hosted. I work from home two days a week so I am free to care for doggies 4-5 days a week. I have two kids in school that are also in sports. So we might be gone for an hour or two but never longer. I provide a safe and caring home for your pet while you are away. I will provide pictures and updates of our walks and playtime.
“Two days before our scheduled trip Valkyrie had a surprise cyst rupture and I had to send her to Roberta with 3 separate medications and an open wound. She didn’t even blink about the last minute extra care! Roberta is so kind and sent me lots of candid photos of my sweet Valkyrie during long walks & playtime with Paco, her new friend. She certainly felt right at home while staying for multiple nights. Thank you for making Valkyrie so welcome in your home & we’ll definitely be back!”
“Thank you very much Dani and Anthony for taking such good care of my Angel. Could not have asked for better care. I truly believe she had a good time spending with you and of course Layla. She made a friend and another family. Thank you again.”
“Was so happy to have found Beth to take care of river- he seemed genuinely happy at her place and she made sure to keep us updated while we were away. Would certainly leave river with Beth again!”

Kristin (and Jeremy) were phenomenal with our pup, Riley. Riley seemed very happy when we picked her up and clearly enjoyed her stay with Kristin greatly! Kristin was also accommodating and flexible with our schedule for Riley’s drop off and pick up. We got the cutest picture updates too! If we need care for Riley again in the future, we would love to utilize Kristin and Jeremy again! Thank you!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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.
