I am available all day every day to take care of your pets.

“Isabella takes such wonderful care of Jax. She is a very sweet peron and very responsive. He always seems so happy when I drop him off and pick him up. He loves her dog. They play alot. I'm grateful to not have to worry when I am away.”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“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!”
“Marla was an amazing host! This was our first time leaving our girl and Marla kept us with peace of mind our entire trip with regular messages and pictures. She is very accommodating and kept our dog active and busy. Our flight was delayed last minute and she was completely understanding and helped us keep our dog safe and happy until we got home. I don’t have enough kind words to say about her! We will be booking with Marla and her family again in the future!”
“Tim was excellent! He made Lilly feel like she was at home. I can truly say she has a wonderful vacation herself. He sent lots of updates and photos and she got along great with Zeus. 100% will go with him again and suggest others do as well. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our precious family member!!”
“Awesome sitter, would recommend her to watch any dog. Hopefully she would be willing to watch my Bray again. I had clear, consistent, and prompt responses and even photos. Crimean truly is an awesome sitter and animal lover.”
“This was my first time leaving my dog, Jenga, with anyone other than family. I was very nervous, but Katie did everything to make me feel comfortable leaving my baby girl with her! We did a meet and greet before I left to make sure our dogs got along and sent me multiple pictures throughout me trip and updates on what they did that day! They played, did brain puzzles, ran around in the fenced in yard, and snuggled a lot!! Katie also is familiar with dogs who need medication and was able to give Jenga her medicine each morning! I have nothing but great things to say about her and my experience!!”
“Kim was incredibly concerned about my dog, Laila. I neglected to inform her about my dog’s open wound, and she kindly offered to take her to my veterinarian. That’s the kind of caring and attentive caregiver I look for, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a great caregiver.”
“Boddie loved playing with Amanda's dogs. He loved her fenced in backyard to run, run, run to burn off his energy. I appreciated Amanda giving me updates on how Boddie was doing. Especially after his first night. I was pleased to hear he was quiet through the night and the great communication she provided in light of drop off and pickup. Highly recommend!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Harlem
I was really nervous about leaving Havanna for the first time since we adopted her. However, my anxiety was quickly relieved by her gentleness toward her. She was excellent about sending photos 2 times a day with updates on her which was extremely appreciated. There was a time during Havanna's stay where she had an accident and walked through her poop and Missy was so good about giving her a thorough bath. And all her blankets were washed before coming home. I would use her again in a second. Loved the care she got and she even made friends with the other dogs.
This was the first time we used Rover. We were happy to find someone close by. Missy took great care of our dog, and sent lots of photos. She had a lot of fun with Missy's dogs, and came back very tired. Having a Meet & Greet beforehand made us feel better about leaving our dog. We'll definitely use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Harlem 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 Harlem.
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.
You and your Harlem 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.
