“My guys enjoyed their time with Amanda. We scheduled a Meet & Greet on the day she received my request. My guys loved her fenced in yard. Amanda sent photos through the day and the buys were happy when I picked them up the next day. I will definitely reccomend and use her services again.”
“Alexa was fabulous!!! She was so kind and easy to work with. My dogs had a Blast with her dog and her family. She kept me updated and sent pictures frequently. Her communication was always extremely prompt as well. I already made plans to use her again!”
“I contacted Wendy from out of state mid-vacation because my dog wasn’t doing well when his sitter left the house. Wendy agreed to watch our dog at her house and helped us arrange his transportation. Our anxious pup warmed up to her immediately and loved his stay at her house! He got to snuggle on the couch, roam the big yard, chase the squirrels—what else could a dog want!? Our dog came home very happy and while he was glad to see me when I picked him up, he also went to Wendy and her family for goodbye pets—a sign he enjoyed his time with them. Wendy was such a delight to work with from beginning to end. Without hesitation, she will be the first person I contact to watch our dog when we plan our next vacation.”
“Sabrina was amazing with our toy poodle! She took him on walks and the dog park and sent us pictures of him everyday. Our dog got along with her dog and they had a great time together :)”
“Melissa is a very special pet sitter!! Our dog had a hard first couple days trying to settle in as it was only his second time in someone else’s home over night. She went above and beyond to help him feel comfortable. I received lots of pictures of Winston doing his favorite things! I know that he was well taken care of with Melissa!”
“Alyssa took such good care of Charlie! She provided him a safe environment where it was clear that he was very comfortable - so much so that he didn't want to leave! I am grateful for her excellent care and superb communication. Charlie is asking when he can go back!”
“Mike and Lorraine took such great care of Van while we were away! We were nervous using Rover for the first time and they really put us at ease. We loved the picture updates and kind feedback throughout the stay. Will definitely hope to book with them for future trips.”
“Luca absolutely loved his stay at Shona’s!!! Shona was excellent with Luca, and gave him the most love and attention while we were gone. We love that she took him for walks and kept him active! She sent us pictures and kept us updated. She is very knowledgeable about animals, especially dogs. I felt at ease our whole vacation knowing that Luca was in great hands and was with a family that cared for him! We would love to use Shona again in the future!!”
“Dana is great! Regular messages through the Rover app throughout the stay, w/pics. My dog does not get a lot of socialization so her having a dog of her own was a huge plus for me. Will definitely book with Dana again. I can't recommend her enough.”
“Tina was absolutely awesome with our high-energy Goldendoodle Rusty. Rusty spent 5 days with Tina and family while we were away in Florida. She took excellent care of him - he loved racing around her yard, playing with her kids and being a new member of Tina’s family. The pictures she sent daily of Rusty proved that he was having just as an amazing vacation as we were!”
“Jenna was great! When I dropped off our dog, she asked great questions and listened to each answer. She clearly loves taking care of pets. During our 2 nights away from Ziggy, Jenna sent pictures and comments about how he was doing. We would definitely use Jenna again and recommend her to others.”
“SIQI was the best dog sitter we have ever had for our 2 medium to large dogs. She was extremely responsive and very kind. She had dogs before and knows how to care for dogs really well. She went above and beyond for our girls. One of our girls nails chipped and she quickly sent a picture and followed up with what she did. We are looking forward to having her care for our girls in the future!”
“Wendy and Daniel were absolutely wonderful. We get nervous leaving our Boston terrier if the person is not familiar with the brachiocephalic breed and they made us so comfortable at the meet and greet! Barney had the best time and can’t wait to book again.”
“Took great care of our dog, Peach, while we were away for the weekend. Sent updates with pictures which I appreciated. Will definitely be using Coleen again soon!”
“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!”
“We, including our dog, LOVE Sarah. She was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. We received frequent updates and pictures. We met her before she dogs to make sure our dog was comfortable at her place. Everything went smoothly and we would definitely be using her services again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Graterford
Totally great. Was flexible on timing and pickup/dropoff, which was very helpful due to some unexpected travel-related delays and complications on my part. Clear communication and my dog obviously enjoyed her time there. Was great knowing my dog was in excellent care with some pals to play with. Absolutely recommend!
We had a wonderful experience with Patricia. She communicated exceedingly well and often. She treated our Furbaby as her own by taking her on daily walks, applying topical medication, and accommodating her sleeping preferences. We received daily pictures and updates, which provided us with reassurance and comfort.

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.
94% of sitters in Graterford 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 Graterford 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 Graterford.
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 Graterford. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Graterford 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.
