“What an amazing boarding experience! Mirit and Shava took wonderful care of my Khali. They sent pictures and updates which provided peace of mind and also showed me how happy Khali was in their home. I absolutely will book again. Highly recommend!!!”
“Cynthia took great care of my dog at her place. She followed instructions, kept me updated, and even made my dog rice to encourage her to eat. Her dog was very friendly with my nervous greyhound. They even played together in Cynthia’s back patio.”
“Melanie took amazing care of our two pups during their three-week stay! They both had such a wonderful time.It was obvious Heidi missed her new friend, Pippa. Melanie was also incredibly responsive and understanding with our Rex, who gets anxious during thunderstorms and fireworks. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our fur babies were safe, loved, well cared for, and having a great time. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Melanie again!”
“Zyiana was so great with my Miacchiato. Macchiato had lots of fun playing with her the whole day. I was running behind picking him up and Zyiana was so accomodating. I would definitely recommend her for other folks who need their pups watched!”
“Earlier this week, I found myself in the position of finding overnight care for my dog Cookie at the very last minute. I will never send him to a kennel since he does not do well with a lot of other dogs and I did not want him lost amidst a sea of yapping or feeling confined. I needed someone with a big, secure, natural back yard to enjoy when not on walks; someone with only one or two personal pets who would not take in others during Cookie’s stay; and someone active, engaged and loving with my special guy. I found that person in Christina. Christina is brand new to the platform, which I actually liked since I suspected she would go over and beyond what was required as she builds her reputation. Her narrative and the testimonials sounded authentic, and her photos showed obvious joy with dogs and cats. And she was available on short notice. I asked if we could do a live video “walk-around” her house, and mainly her yard, on WhatsApp, which I do not believe most people would have agreed to, but she did so readily. This is what I saw, heard and learned: 1) The yard is huge, secure, beautiful and interesting; 2) Her rapport with her own bichon was kind, gentle and fun (I learned she had three bichons for many years but two passed and I think Rover is partly to help fill that void); 3) She walks in Pennypack Park morning, noon and night so when Cookie was not enjoying the yard, he’d be enjoying new sights and sounds elsewhere with his new bichon buddy; 4) Cookie would not be caged ever, and no other dogs would be accepted for boarding while he was there. I had to change the drop off and pickup times at the last minute, which was not a problem at all. Drop-off was easy and communication consistent and remained on WhatsApp throughout the stay. I picked Cookie up a little while ago and I knew I had made the right choice for my guy. Cookie will be back at Christina’s without a question, though hopefully not at the last minute again. Five out of five!!!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my dog! From the moment we met, I could tell Jia had a natural connection with animals. Jia was warm, responsible, and clearly experienced. My dog instantly felt comfortable, and I felt completely at ease leaving him in such capable hands. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and even a few videos that showed how happy and relaxed my dog was. It was clear he was being well-loved and cared for. The sitter went above and beyond with walks, playtime, and making sure he stuck to his routine. I came home to a calm, happy pup—and a clean house! I wholeheartedly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their pet. I will absolutely be booking with them again. Thank you for treating my dog like your own!”
“Mathew and Maricris were absolutely amazing. Maverick loved his time there. They were very on top of communicating with me before and during his stay, sent lots of pictures, and followed all my requested instructions. Would definitely book with them again.”
“Our pup Kody was happy as a clam and in great hands while we were on vacation. 1. Daily updates (pics / vids) 2. Very friendly 3. Flexible schedule What more could you ask for? 😁”
“First time use Rover and had a fantastic experience with Emeline! Great communication, Emeline was always quick to reply, and constantly check in with us, and we scheduled a visit before boarding. Emeline is very patient and truly loves animals, and she bought our puppy treat and gave him plenty of toys to play with, I can see that my puppy was happy!”
“Armani was great. Raven-Pepper has a pretty extensive feeding regimen, but she was able to follow it very well. She also kept me up-to-date on how Raven-Pepper was doing. On whether or not she ate and all the walks she took. If I am in the area again, I would definitely book with her again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Kat and Matt! They took great care of our two dogs over the weekend and made sure we always felt connected by sending regular photo updates. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were happy, safe, and well loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book with them again!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up with a Golden Retriever, which gave me an early love and appreciation for dogs and their unique personalities. Before adopting my own cat, I cared for a friend’s cat for nearly a year, gaining valuable hands-on experience with daily feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and providing a comfortable, loving environment. I’m now a proud cat parent to a one-year-old kitty, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether it’s keeping up with their daily routines, giving them plenty of affection, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable, my goal is to help every pet feel happy and cared for while their owner is away. I’m also happy to provide regular photo updates for peace of mind! I work a regular 9-to-5 schedule, Monday through Friday, and enjoy staying active by going to the gym after work. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine as a cat mom! I’m generally available in the evenings and on weekends, and I love spending my free time caring for and playing with animals. I value consistency and will always make sure each pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need while respecting their usual routine. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of great outdoor spaces for dogs! My apartment community has grassy areas, convenient walking paths, and a fenced dog park, making it easy to provide regular walks, exercise, and outdoor playtime. I also have a one-year-old cat at home, so I understand how important it is to create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I always pay close attention to each animal’s personality, needs, and routine. For pets staying in my home, I’ll make sure they have a cozy space to relax and feel comfortable. For visits to a client’s home, I’ll carefully follow their instructions, respect their space, and keep their pets’ routines as consistent as possible. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so owners can feel reassured while they’re away!

“Loved Robert. Made sure he knew all about my dogs needs; asked several questions. Easy to work with. Had a quick meet and greet. Sent great pictures on fun outings. Also just hanging out on the front porch people watching...party hats and all ;) I love it. My boy Boudreaux will be back for sure.”
About: Hi! I’m a local dog lover in the Bryn Mawr/Main Line area offering dog walking and in-home pet sitting. I am currently focusing on dog walking as I transition and build my business I’m transitioning into retirement, which gives me a flexible schedule and lets me focus on what I enjoy most—spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away or busy. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel comfortable with me right away. Light check-ins, feeding, and morning potty breaks or walks for house sitting clients. ⸻ 🌤 Midday My main dog walking window in the Bryn Mawr/Main Line area. Walks are calm, unhurried, and tailored to each dog’s energy level. ⸻ 🌇 Afternoon Drop-in visits or additional walks if needed, plus companionship time for house sitting stays. ⸻ 🌙 Evening Feeding, evening walks, and making sure pets are settled and comfortable for the night. ⸻ Because I’m transitioning into retirement, I’m able to keep my schedule flexible and focus on providing consistent, attentive care without rushing. I take dogs on long walks. I do have a crate in my home, but typically if I am leaving I set up a bed and den like atmosphere in my second floor laundry room which I gate do the dog stays safe. I run an Airbnb in my third floor so while I can watch dogs in my home, in house at the dog’s home is preferable. I am extremely safety conscious and when I have dogs over I try to keep them in my sight at all times. If they love cuddling, they will get tons of cuddles from me
“Donte is the best! He is the sweetest, most gentle human there is to care for your fur babies. He is so kind to our Roxy and she adores him. I’m impressed with how he trains her and she is so eager to go back with him. 10/10 highly recommend Donte!”
“Alexis does such a great job with Prince! She really takes care of him and provides the comfort Prince receives at home. I will continue to care for Prince when I am away.”
“Joe was very communicative and definitely is a dog expert. He sent frequent updates and pictures explaining the pack behavior and Zeytin seemed to enjoy her time with some other doggy friends.”

Our girl Penny had another great stay with Rebecca and her daughter, Bri! Both were very attentive to Penny’s needs and were extremely communicative throughout the entire stay. Penny had a great time on many walks and playing in the yard with their dog Fiona. We’d be happy to have Penny stay with them again in the future. Thanks again!
I had such a great experience boarding my dog with her. It's hard to leave your dog with someone else, but she made the whole process easy and stress-free. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and enjoys caring for them. When I picked Spoofer up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. That meant everything to me. I never worried while I was away because I knew she was in good hands. If you're looking for someone who is dependable, caring, and will treat your dog with kindness and attention, I highly recommend her. I'll definitely be boarding my dog with her again!
Hiring Dana to dogsit Buster was the best decision. We usually board him at the vet, but wanted a change so that he would have a more social, active and fun experience. Dana was thoughtful, caring, communicative and flexible throughout the entire process (from booking to pickup). She took excellent care of Buster with specific attention to our requests. She sent us many wonderful photos of his daily activities, which included several nature and park walks. Buster had his own little vacation exploring new places while we enjoyed ours in complete peace of mind. We happily give Dana the highest praise and rating with respect to our experience with her. She is a true animal lover and a nice person.
Stephany was awesome! Very communicative, great handler, and my dog loved her. She took my Nala on big walks, let her out on a leash in the yard, and was attentive to her, sent me multiple pictures and videos, and I can tell my dog wants to go back. Not to mention, she took my booking request on a days notice and I went from requesting to drop off in less than 24 hours. Perfectly reasonable price, will definitely be rebooking in the future!!!
Our dog Halle had a wonderful stay with Brittany! She sent us pics and updates and we could tell that Halle was getting lots of walks, pets and love. Halle is dog-reactive and Brittany took great care handling her. It was so nice to return from vacation to a very happy dog. We would be delighted to have Brittany watch Halle for us again in the future.

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 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 Meet & Greet.
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.
