“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received while boarding with Ms Candace. I received regular updates, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, healthy, and relaxed, I highly recommend this boarding service to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate people to care for their pets.”

“I was very happy with the care our dog received while with Svitlana. I received pictures and updates. He was so happy when I arrived to pick him up. It almost appeared as though he didn’t want to leave. I will be booking with her again!”

“Jon and Mary took great care of our Faye. We haven't left our puppy with anyone before so we were very nervous. They put us at ease by talking to us for a while about their rover experience. They have two adorable, friendly, fun loving labs that played with our little Faye. Their family all pitched in to keep Faye happy and active. We will definitely be using Jon and Mary again. Highly recomend!”


“Jenny was wonderful. She took great care of our 2 dogs for a whole week. Our 1 dog who typically has anxiety when we're away seemed as happy as could be! We appreciated photos throughout the week!”

“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!!”

“Another great stay for London. I even had to extend by a day and Lonnie was vert accommodating. Lonnie communicates and sends photos so I know London is happy and safe.”

“This was our first time booking with Amy. I’m always nervous to leave my dog with new people, but Amy and her husband were very nice and reassuring. Made me feel at ease leaving him with them. She sent me pictures thru out the stay which I loved. He seemed to be pretty happy there and had a good time. He loved the fenced in yard. We would def take our Charlie back there again.”


“Ashley was fantastic, she sent photos or videos everyday and all of them showed the happiest dog ever!!! Would recommend highly and will go back to her as long as she’s available!”

About: Hi there! I’m Courtney – lifelong animal lover, seasoned pet parent, and your pet’s next favorite human. 🐾 From fluffy kittens to wise senior pups, I’ve cared for just about every kind of furry (and finned!) friend you can think of - cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits… basically everything except the slithery and scaly crew (sorry, lizards and snakes, you're adorable but not my specialty!). With a lifetime of experience and a current household that includes four cats and two dogs (yes, it’s as wonderfully chaotic as it sounds), I’ve seen it all - from zoomies and belly rubs to insulin shots and joint supplements. I’ve raised pets from their earliest days through to their golden years, including those with special needs like hip dysplasia and diabetes. Administering routine meds and providing compassionate, attentive care is just part of the package. I know firsthand that pets are family, and when you're away, you deserve peace of mind knowing your beloved companions are safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether your pet is a snuggly couch potato, an energetic explorer, or a quirky little character with special routines, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Let’s make your time away as stress-free as a sunny nap in a windowsill. ☀️🐕🐈⬛ I have a flexible daytime desk job, allowing me to set my own schedule and typically wrapping each day by 5p so my evenings are free. I'm happily married and my husband also works a flexible day job so he is able to hold down the fort with our pets and teens so that I can take care of your family when you're away! I'd love to provide your pet with drop-in care that suits their individual and unique needs, whether that's going for walks, playing in an enclosed yard, or hanging out for a bit for belly rubs, cuddles, and treats. I'm flexible to each pet's needs and want to be sure they feel loved and cared for in your absence. And of course, it's important to me to be sure they are in a clean, safe, fed environment during the times that I'm not there - whether that means making sure water dishes are full, messes are cleaned up, doors are secured, temperatures are comfortable, etc. I've worked with pets who prefer crate-training to those who are allowed free reign, and am comfortable with whatever YOUR structure is for your pet. If they're happy, I'm happy.
“Sammy had such a great stay with Jena at The Doggy Den 🐾 She kept me updated with pictures and videos, and he clearly had the best time playing his heart out lol. Communication was always prompt and professional, and I really appreciated her letting me know whenever she had to step out briefly. The space is calm and beautiful with a huge fenced-in backyard, and she even kept Sammy in his familiar sleeping setup. I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care—we’ll definitely be booking again soon 💛”


“Chelsea does a fantastic job with Harley. It's comforting to know he is well cared for and happy when I am away. He was really tired when I got him. He must have had loads of fun!”

“Lora was awesome! She took really good care of our little guy and sent lots of pictures and videos while we were gone. She has a great yard for gunnar to play and run, and she gave lots of attention to and love to our puppy. I will definitely be using Lora again in the future.”

About: Hello, my name is Pam, I am a current pet parent who lives in Carroll County, MD. I have a passion for animals and their care. I would love to assist you with the care of your pets as well. 😀 I have been caring for pets in my community, since I was very small. I have personal experience taking care of my own pets at home, keeping their cages and clean and emptying and maintaining my cats litter boxes. I have several pets, l have a hamster and a cat, as well as two Guineapigs. I give them lots of treats. Currently, I am looking to provide pet care and assistance to those in my community, part-time. I would be able to provide care and support to people, working around 18 hours per week. I will be working 4.5 hours daily. 11AM-2PM or 5PM-9:30PM. I plan to work for now as a pet sitter, mainly for cats and other small animals, including small dogs, since it will be in my apartment, which is on the smaller size.
“Carla was very flexible to a last minute cancelation we had from another Rover boarder. She was not only highly communicative with pictures but also was so accommodating to special requests. We will be using her in the future.”

“Keisha was very kind and loving towards CJ. Her kids loved CJ and was very attentive towards him. She kept him on his diet and he has no stomach issues. Thank you Keisha for being so kind and loving.”

“Can't say enough great things about Chris! When my dog is in her care, I'm truly at ease because I know he is being well taken care of. She's prompt with communication, gives frequent updates, and cares for my dog as if it's her own.”

Kyla and Cody did a PHENOMENAL JOB taking care of our pup!! They sent updates, pictures and videos without me having to ask ! My dog Capone and their dog Bishop got along so well and played hard!! I DEFINITELY HIGHLY recommend them!! They are AWESOME!! They both made my husband and I feel so comfortable and at ease about taking care of our pup!!! 50/10!!!

Svitlana was absolutely wonderful! She was so friendly and sincere that my husband and I felt instantly comfortable with her. My pup had a great time! He received so much love and attention from her and her family. I received many updates and videos which as a dog parent you just love!! I will definitely use her again!!!
Katie and her entire family, including their pup Olive, were so welcoming to Barley! We appreciated the photos that showed how active her children were with Barley and how kind they treated her as she slept on their sofa. The large yard, Bball court and games really kept Barley active and engaged. And Katies home wasn't too far from our home so it was a great fit. We will be sure to keep her in mind for our next vacation.

Our pups are two years old and this was the first time for boarding or being away from home. They are our children and so we are picky about who we trust to leave them with. Her veterinary degree and willingness to do a "meet and greet" first, put us at ease. She sent photos and updates everyday and kept in contact. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end and we will definitely use Silvia and Roberto in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hanover is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $53 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 592 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hanover. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Hanover 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 Hanover home-away-from-home, 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 Hanover.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Hanover 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 , 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 .
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.
