“We loved Stephanie’s pet sitting services for our super senior dog! She is excellent at communicating and providing lots of photos and detailed daily updates, which we appreciated! Our little guy was extremely well taken care of and we can’t recommend her services highly enough!! Thank you so much, Stephanie!”
“We didn’t worry at all about our dog while we were gone for a week. Beth sent daily updates with pictures and videos. She is awesome to work with and takes amazing care of the dogs that she watches. They are treated like family while they are there! I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have taken care of dogs from as small as a chihuahua to as big as a Great Dane! I have also have experience with older dogs who might need medication or a different routine than younger dogs. My top priority is to take care of your loved one as if it was my own. As a college student, my summertime schedule is very open. I can provide priority care towards your animals, and with my experience, I can give everyday care that can be suitable towards the needs of your animal. In my apartment, I currently own a feline friend. My cat is very playful and loves company. She also knows when another animal does not want to play and respects their wishes.
About: I’ll provide take their pet(s) on a 30 minute walk. Allow their pet(s) to get enough exercise. Provide food and water. I’ll also bathe their pet(s) if needed. I have open availability on weekends and sometimes during the weekdays. I really don’t have any special skills. I’m willing to get to know more about your pet(s). The only pet care experience that I have is from learning things about my own pet. I haven’t really pet sat in a while. I’m willing to learn more by pet sitting your pet(s). I look forward to meeting your pet(s) so that I can gain more experience. I understand that all dogs are not all the same which is why I would love to get more experience. It would help me learn more about your pet(s) and it’s needs.
About: I have had a life time of experience of have pets in my life and care for them as a kid and into an adult. I love the fur babies, we currently have two boxers and a cat. I am able to do dog walks, house sitting, and drop ins at times as needed. Let me know if there are any special needs, meds, diet /directions i needed to follow in caring for your pet. I have given oral and injection meds to my own pets and is comfortable doing so. If there is a special routine that you have with your fur baby and would like to keep going while in my care feel free to make me aware of it to make the stay comfortable for them also. Also any schedule you have are welcome too. I generally go by what instruction that are giving by each owner. I have a large yard. It is current not fence in. I do have running cord for my pets so they can move freely round the yard with supervision. I also live near a dog park so daily walks are available. My dogs love car ride too, so those are also include in their stay if they are one who love to ride.
“My 2 year old golden retriever spent a little over a day at Margaret's house and was tired for a couple days as a result of it. I'll be using Margaret for my future dog sitting needs.”
“We left our boy in the care of Benjamin and Elizabeth while we went on a two week trip to Europe. They treated him as if he were their own. They kept us updated with photos of him throughout his stay which was wonderful because we missed him! We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for him. We would highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Mary was absolutely wonderful with our dog Zelda. We highly recommend her and plan on using her services again in the future. Our dog gets very anxious about new situations especially if she is away from us. Mary took the time to help her get used to the new environment. Mary sent us a picture of Zelda not long after we left her and we could tell that Zelda felt right at home. We felt good about leaving Zelda with Mary from our first meeting. It was evident immediately how much she cares for dogs and enjoys her work.”
“Emma was so great! She went out of her way to make sure my pups were comfortable, including two meet & greets beforehand! My pups had the best time and came home so happy and peaceful. They are actually less anxious than they’ve ever been, like they’ve forgotten to be worried about the front door all the time. So, yeah… Emma returned my pups to me better than I left them. There’s no higher praise than that!!”
About: Hi there! I'm Farah. I have ample experience with all size dogs and an array of special needs dogs, including caring for disabled dogs, giving meds, and managing strict diets and feeding schedules. I’ll be there when promised and will provide updates and/or photos. I am comfortable with all breed sizes and will prioritize your dog's safety and comfort. My chorkie is attached to me so for any overnight or daytime boarding, he will be present unless otherwise stated. He is 6 pounds now and comfortable with cats and small to medium dogs. He is not fixed yet, so please let me know if your girl dog is not spayed. Weekdays: I am not available 8a-4p on weekdays due to my work schedule, but I am available before or after. For boarding, I can accept crate/pen trained dogs and I come home on break midday for walks and treats. I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I work Monday through Friday 8-4, but I'm free all day after and anytime on the weekends. I am also happy to pop in during my work day on lunch breaks. I'm flexible and can accommodate you and your pets' needs! I provide structure, care, love, and frequent walks for my dog and will treat yours the same way. I also love taking him on adventures to parks throughout Erie.
“First time using a pet sitter. Danielle and her family were so kind and attentive to our dog. She was definitely tired when she came home but not as tired as I expected which to me meant she was relaxed and able to rest in their home. Thank you for a great first experience.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs puppies cats and kittens! I love all animals and have even volunteered at shelters. I’m very excited to take care of other fluffy friends! I do school from home so i’m very flexible and able to do check ins, walks and other needs! My weekends are very free too! I prioritize my pets at all times. I do the same for any animal i am watching. This includes multiple potty break, Litter cleanings, Feedings on time, Walks, etc.
About: I’ve always had animals my entire life of all sorts and prefer their company. Naturally animals are comfortable in my presence. I am basically Snow White. Pet care is a regular part of my routine that I could easily adapt to your requirements. I work a few hour during the week for a few days and have plenty of time to accommodate your needs. I have fenced yard if necessary for run time. But I can make time to visit the home of your pets for their comfort ability.
About: I’ve had and taken care of cats and other animals since a very young age, my friends and family come to me to check on, feed and play with their pets.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Erie
Beth was such a wonderful caregiver for my pup. She kept us updated several times a day, every day. She shared pictures and let us know if there was anything we should know. I truly knew my dog was in the Best Place she could be while I was away. We have found the place for our pup when we're out of town from now on!
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.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Erie
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Erie on Rover is $42.8 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 60 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Erie. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Erie 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 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 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.
