We felt very comfortable leaving him in her hands, she was very kind, attentive to Lav’s particular needs, and very communicative throughout the process! Olivia sent us adorable photos of Lavender and her sweet dog Lorraine, and they always looked like they were having so much fun together! I highly recommend Olivia for your pet care needs!”

“Tamikia came through clutch when I needed a last minute sitter for my fur baby and she took excellent care of him. She is the most responsive host you’ll ever encounter and she sent regular updates of Brodee without prompting which I really appreciated since it was his first time with her. Definitely worth the trip over the bridge (I’m from NJ)!”
“Madeline is simply wonderful! I boarded my Calvin with her for almost a week and she sent me daily updates with pictures. You can really tell she loves dogs and is super kind and patient. We just moved to Philly and I’m so glad I found her and her husband! 10/10 recommend!! Thank you Madeline for taking care of my baby boy 🐾”

“Simply the best! I can’t write a long enough review to explain what a great experience Ace has with John. Ace is a high maintenance, big dog that likes attention. John met Ace before we booked. Very important he advertised that he would only have one dog during Ace’s visit and he did.”

We could tell they were great dog parents and babysitters!! Our pup was ecstatic to come back!”

“Khaing is a wonderful and amazing cat sitter! I had just taken in a cat 2 days before a destination wedding for several days so was on a really tight and stressful schedule. My cat didn't want to get in the carrier so Khaing was kind enough to get him from our apartment the next day. I'm so grateful for her patience and care! She even gifted my cat a banana toy after she realized how much he loves it! Great communication: she was very attentive and responsive to messages. There were constant picture updates. She also asked permission to give snacks. I would definitely recommend Khaing to any cat parent looking for a sitter for the first time, especially first time cat parent like myself!”

Sam was amazing and took great care of our Jakey boy! I highly recommend him! Sent updates daily multiple times as well as lots of pictures. Jake got along with him very well and were definitely going to be booking again. Thank you Sam for taking such good care of our fur baby.
Rosie had a great time at Kevin’s house with his dog and the other pups he was boarding. She came back happy and relaxed. Kevin was very thorough when we met up, and he asked lots of questions so that I would feel safe leaving Rosie. I’m very happy with the experience and I will use Kevin again soon.
Rocky just spent 4 days with Cinthia and her adorable dog Zoey. He had the best time and was so well taken care of. Cinthia sent me pictures and texts to let me know how he was doing which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend her and I would use her again.
Rose is an AMAZING sitter. My dog Papi loves to stay with her and her son. Rose does a great job sending updates and sharing photos of my baby while I’m away. She is also flexible; there have been times I have had to go away for work on short notice and Rose is always available. She’s apart of the family now! We love Rose! Be sure to book with her! Love Ya Rose ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Essington on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of August 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 3,315 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Essington. About 90% of Essington 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.
