Our little guy was extremely well taken care of and we can’t recommend her services highly enough!! Thank you so much, Stephanie!”
“Kara takes such great care of my dogs and they felt comfortable with her right away. Thank you for all of the updates and pictures, playing endless fetch with them and for giving them so much love. You are amazing!”
“We were nervous to leave Harper. He had only been boarded with friends he knew. But Stephanie was great!!! She sent us pictures and videos and Harper loved it there. We would have Stephanie watch Harper again for sure!!!! We highly recommend her!”
“Margaret is the best giving us daily updates on how our dog Kyri was doing during our long trip away. Kyri was well taken care of and enjoyed their company and cozy home!”
“First time I ever left my dog, Ellie with anyone other than family members. While I was initially apprehensive, Mary was the best dog caregiver I could have found and quickly put me at ease. She obviously loves dogs and Ellie was wonderfully care for and treated like a member of Mary’s family. Mary is kind, knowledgeable and highly organized. I recommend her without reservation.”
“Phoebe took great care of my pups. This was Bea's first time away from home post adoption, and she did really well. Phoebe sent me updates and photos every day, and responded really quickly to any message I sent. I will leave my dogs with Phoebe again soon, and already suggested her to a few friends.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Erie
Elizabeth was a life-saver for us! We were coming from NC to attend a family wedding in Erie, and needed a place for our Havanese for the day and overnight of the festivities. Luckily, Elizabeth had an opening and was able to take her into her home. She was very responsive and took excellent care of Maggie for us, and we are very grateful! We would highly recommend Elizabeth! Lyn W. 5/25/2026
Charlie seemed to have a good time with Nyomi and Olive, the other dog there. Nyomi has had a lot of dogsitting experience so she was ready for anything. That was reassuring for Charlie's first visit to her house. We were in Erie from out of town and the situation worked out well.
Pamela and Will were absolutely wonderful with our pup! They took such great care of her and genuinely treated her as their own. They were very responsive and flexible and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while away. Our dog came home happy, tuckered out, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to know she was in such kind and capable hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Pamela and Will again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving sitters!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Erie is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 58 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Erie. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Erie 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 Erie home-away-from-home, 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 Erie.
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 Erie 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 , 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 .
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.
