“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!!!”
About: Caring for dogs isn't just a service for me—it’s personal. From 10 years of age my family and I have cared for Beagles, Pointers and Brittany Spaniels. Most recently have spent over 12 years caring for a Golden Retriever. I specialize in providing the gentle, attentive care that older dogs need to feel safe and comfortable. I’m also experienced in working with puppies on routine and basic training. Whether your pet needs a slow-paced day with extra comfort or active puppy guidance, I treat every dog like my own with personalized attention and frequent updates. *Experienced with administering daily oral medications *Pet safety is paramount in my home or walks *Fenced yard for maximum peace of mind I retired from work 2 years ago. My routine revolves around spending plenty of time at home, which makes integrating pet care seamless and natural. Mornings begin with energetic outdoor time, feeding, and fresh water, followed by continuous monitoring and check-ins throughout the day. Because I am consistently present, I can closely follow your dog's exact routine—from midday walks and bathroom breaks to relaxing afternoons and structured evening routines. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. Whether I’m caring for a dog in my own home or visiting a client’s, safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-proofed, and secure environment free from hazards, toxic plants, or loose items. I closely monitor pets to ensure they are comfortable, safe, and never left unattended in unsecured areas. When visiting a client's home, I strictly follow your household rules, keep doors and gates secure, and ensure doors/windows are locked during visits. I am also extremely mindful of home security, mail collection, and keeping the space clean, so you come back to a happy pet and a secure home.
“Yuhan was incredible with our 2.5-yr-old pup Jack. We were in a bind with finding someone to watch him on such short notice, and she was more than willing to help us out. She sent us a bunch of pictures throughout the weekend, so we felt very secure. We did not have any concerns with leaving Jack with Yuhan, her husband, her todler, and her pup Oreo. Jack and Oreo seemed to have become great friends very quickly. Thanks Yuhan! We hope to use you to watch Jack again in the future!”
“Alexa is great at what she does! My pup Nathan had a wonderful time and was very well taken care of. Alexa provided plenty of updates (including photos) and was fantastic about keeping track of and administering his allergy medication. 10/10 would recommend”
“Theresa took great care of Ollie while I was away for 9 days out of the country traveling. Seeing the pictures and videos Theresa sent over daily, I know Ollie is having a great time. Thank you again Theresa!”
“Lauren was awesome!! She took the lead on short notice, she was very good at giving me updates and sending me pictures. Her and her family were very nice and friendly.. I would definitely use her again in the future and I will definitely recommend her and Rover to anyone that asks me about watching their dogs!!”
“Once again, we could not be happier with our boarding experience with Mr. Tao. Being away on vacation, it is such a relief to get regular updates on our dogs along with pictures of them having a great time. Mr. Tao and his family take excellent care of our dogs and are excellent at communicating regularly. The dogs seemed so relaxed when we picked them up which tells us that they had a vacation of their own and were very well take care of. Thank you Mr. Tao!!”
About: From a family of dog lovers, I have always had a dog at home to care for. Growing up, I was the neighborhood’s go-to pet sitter. I love all dogs and have a very flexible schedule! I am currently a teacher on summer break which leaves me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your dogs on a schedule that works best for you! I have a friendly and playful dog at home, Murphy who can keep your pup company or be crated if needed. At my apartment we have two gated dog run areas and living downtown provides many fun areas to walk.
“Kelly was amazing with Dusty. I was concerned because he had just injured his hind leg 2 days before his stay. He needed medication twice daily and needed to be carried outside and limit activity. Kelly gave Dusty all of the TLC he needed! I felt so comfortable being away knowing he was being taken care of!”
“Liubov was an exceptional cat sitter for our two girls. She was incredible at communication and helping us watch our cats last minute. My partner and I are so happy that we found her. We will definitely recommend her if our friends/family in the area need a sitter. Great experience!”
“Leanne and her family did an amazing job with our dog. They gave daily pictures and updates and took great care of our pet. We will definitely bring our dog back to them in the future.”
“Barbara really went the extra mile to make sure our dogs we’re cared for! She provided multiple updates a day and made sure they had plenty of play time. Definitely would recommend!”
“Christina was great! She took great care of our dog and was communicative and responsive. She was very flexible with drop off and pickup and was great. We’d definitely go back”
“We traveled from out of state and needed someone to watch our pup while we were at Sesame Place and having our dog stay with Meghan was so helpful! Very flexible with pickup and drop off and sent lots of pictures of our dog enjoying his time there.”
“Very knowledgeable about dog care and provided plenty of updates and great environment. Very accommodating if care needs to be changed. My dog is always excited to go to his house and I’m at ease knowing he’s taken care of.”
“Emeline was a great sitter for our maltipoo while we were away on vacation for 12 days. Emeline was very welcoming to us when we first met with her, and we could tell she was confident in her ability. Emeline kept us up to date each day with a note and a picture of the days activities, which helped us know our dog was being well taken care of. We will use her again! Thanks Emeline!”

Becky took such good care of our dog during her stay! She had a medical concern pop up and Becky was incredibly responsive and kept us updated on how she was doing consistently. We felt comforted knowing she was in such good care and we would recommend Becky to anyone!
Nicole was an amazing pet sitter for our dog Scoopy from Dec 25–31. She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us total peace of mind. Scoopy was happy and well cared for when we returned, and it was clear he felt comfortable with her and her husband. We would absolutely book Nicole again and highly recommend her!

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.
