“We left pepino, our young high energy dog with Jaideep for a week. He did a great job taking care of pepino and keeping us updated regularly during our travels so we knew everything was going well. We would love to have Jaideep take care of pepino again in the future.”
“Goose was so happy after his overnight stay with Oleg! He was able to play and get lots of love at his house. Oleg was responsive and flexible with us to make it a pleasant experience for us just as much as it was for Goose!”
“Our dog Red had a great time with Derek, Cammie and their daughter and pups. They sent updates and pictures throughout his stay and were very flexible around drop off and pickup to accommodate our traveling. We don’t use Rover too often but Red will definitely visit them again!”
“Michelle is the best! She gave us daily progress reports and pictures. She took care of Papi like family. She even brushed his teeth. Papi is usually afraid of everything and everyone, but warmed up to Michelle and her dog, Emmy, quickly. She gave us such peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Watson always has the best time with Lauren and Doug. He feels safe and secure, is extremely well cared for and can just be his little lazy 14-year-old self. I book with them as often as I possibly can!!”
“Krista was absolutely amazing! She took care of Nikko last minute and made everything so easy. I could tell right away that she truly loves animals Nikko felt comfortable with her instantly. She kept me updated, sent pictures, and treated him like her own. I’m so grateful for her kindness and flexibility. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! Highly recommend!”
“Could not have been happier with Anton. My dog is shy and anxious, and Anton did a great job of both taking care of him and making sure that my dog felt safe and secure enough to socialize. We were provided updates and pictures (which were incredible). Also, when our flight was delayed, Anton was kind enough to watch my dog for a few extra hours. It made a stressful situation much easier to handle. My dog's bedding was even freshly washed when I picked him up. I would highly recommend boarding your pet with Anton. I will definitely use his services again in the future.”
“Lisa was fantastic with our 2 girls! We are so grateful that we could go away and not worry about them. We received daily updates and pictures which really helped us feel comfortable. We will definitely be using Lisa again!”
“Jack was great with our dog, Buddy. This was Buddy's first time away from home and I was worried about how he would do. Jack sent me pics often and assured me Buddy was doing just fine. Jack and his family were very accommodating to our schedule. Things went so well, we will definitely use Jack again. I highly recommend Jack for your pet's care.”
“Brionna was amazing. Great communication, including photos and updates during the stay. The house was great and they have a newly fenced back yard that our pup seemed to love. Shes hard to tire out but she came back exhausted. Will absolutely use again.”
“I recently adopted my dog, and the previous owner recommended Rebecca. When we arrived, it was obvious that my dog remembered Rebecca and her pets and enjoyed their company. I felt very comfortable leaving Roxy with her. I would use her again.”
“Alexis was very easy to work with and communicated well with us. She took great care of our dog while we were away and updated us with texts and photos. We would definitely recommend her! Her kids were an added bonus for our dog to cuddle and play with!”
“Steffany & her family were the most wonderful hosts for Kona! They took great care of her & treated her like another member of the family while she stayed over. I received updates every day & they were very flexible with my schedule. Highly recommend!!”
“If you want your dog truly loved & cared for, BOOK Phillip & Maria!!! Bodhi had THE BEST TIME: walks, cuddles, new dog friends. We got a video every day & Maria replied within 10 minutes any time I messaged. I can't say enough good things-- we've had some sketchy Rover sitters and Phillip & Maria restored our faith. Our boy was with them 5 days, he ate well, and slept like a rock. 10/10 highly recommend and we will be booking with them again!!!”
“Michelle was super, especially taking Ghost on such short notice. She had a nice fenced in yard for Ghost to ramble. She sent a lot of great photos and took such good care of Ghost with plenty of toys for Ghost to play with. Would definitely use her again. OH, and Michelle, I keep on forgetting to text you but I still have your spare key...”
“Abigail was great! We needed a last minute sitter for our 1yr old pup for a 10 day trip and Abigail accommodated us with no problem! She was even willing to do a meet and greet before the stay. My 1yr old still has puppy like behaviors which I warned her about and she had no problem as well! My pup also loved spending time with her very friendly dog and kids! She also communicated very well with great response times. Will definitely have Abigail sit for us if needed again!”
“Brian was awesome. I was a very nervous pet parent because this was the first time I left my babies in someone else's home for a length of time. Brian sent pictures almost each day and my Remi made himself right at home on his sofa! Brian's patience and personality were the perfect fit for my rescue babies. Thank you Brian!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 566 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fortney. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
97% of sitters in Fortney 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 Fortney 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 Fortney.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fortney. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Fortney 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
