“Jayda was great with our little girl! She was so happy when we picked her up. I appreciate her responsiveness and attention to detail. I was also grateful for all the pictures and video that she sent us during the stay. It really put me at ease since it was our first time using Rover. We will definitely come back again.”

“Sandra was absolutely amazing with our dog, Rio From the moment we met her, we knew our pup would be in great hands. She followed all our instructions perfectly, gave us regular updates with photos, and went above and beyond to make sure Rio was happy and comfortable. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Sandra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”
“Brenton was amazing!! Sent lots of pictures & it’s clear our dog had a wonderful time. He has a great yard and a very safe space for any dog. Will absolutely be back! Thanks again 😊”

“I usually do not feel comfortable leaving my dog with anyone. Tara updated me about my baby everyday with pictures and videos which made me feel my baby is safe and enjoying his stay with her! I absolutely recommend her and it's definitely not our last time booking with her!”

“My fur baby was right at home. Aquisha was awesome and made me feel very comfortable with leaving Zeus with her. i didn’t worry about him one bit and she sent me pictures daily.”

“Winnie had a great time at Mari’s and even though she is all puppy- she seemed to acclimate and be right at home when I went to pick her up!! I was impressed by Mari’s patience and understanding since having a 7mo old lab is ALOT!! I hope to use her again!!”

“Bernie stays with Stacey when I travel or when he just wants to visit. He loves her and his time with friends while visiting. I’m thankful for Stacey and would highly suggest her if you’re looking for a place for your pup to play or visit.”

“My Maltese partner is one of the great joys of my life. The fact that I've entrusted her to Kathy multiple times says it all. Kathy obviously cares about animals in her charge. I will rebook and will recommend her to others.”

“Great new friends for Zulu to hang with!!! Their cool demeanor and willingness to take on an older puppers with seizure disorder left me knowing my best good buddy would be taken care of while we need to travel out of the country for work. I loved getting photos and videos while away. Will be back for more fun!!”
“Hunter took wonderful care of Margo. As I am new to Rover, she was very organized and responsive which helped tremendously. It is easy to see how much Hunter loves dogs.”

“Rogelio has been to Ms Carols before. He ran into her house just so comfortable. Ms Carol is very responsive and does share all the pictures throughout his stay. Her home is so welcoming and would definitely be going back to her.”

“Cinthya provided great care for my pets while I was away. She kept me up to date on how they were doing and I felt secure in that they were happy and safe.”

“Lovely family! Monica and her son were so kind and patient with Kevin. Our initial meet-and-greet ended quickly because Kevin didn’t seem to get along with one of their dogs at first, but Monica’s son encouraged us to come back and give the dogs more time to get comfortable with each other. I really appreciated that, because Kevin ended up having a great stay based on the photos and updates I received. I’m very happy with the care they gave him, especially since they were able to take him last minute. Thank you again!”

“She is Amazing and will br our go to sitter when she is available to do so we received pictures and videos daily and she spoiled Jazz so much we were afraid she wouldn't want to come home! Definitely a great experience..”


“Samantha was absolutely amazing with Bentley! I was out of the country during his stay, and she kept me updated the entire time with messages and videos, which really put my mind at ease. It meant so much to see how well he was doing and to know he was in such great hands. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and clearly cares about the pets she watches. My return flight ended up getting messed up and caused some scheduling issues for pickup, but Samantha was so understanding and worked with me while I figured everything out. She adjusted without any complaints and was very courteous about the whole situation. I truly appreciate her kindness and flexibility. I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”

“The dogs (all 3 of them could not be happier) to stay with the loveliest family. They spoiled them, exercised them and took such good care of my puppies that I don’t think they wanted to leave. Huge house and a beautiful property for dogs to play and romp and just have a blast!”

“Amy sent several pictures and updates throughout Olive's stay and was very responsive. I felt very comfortable that Olive was taken care of and would definitely use them again.”

“Karina and her wonderful family were so kind and patient with my high anxiety dog. He had never been boarded before, and didn’t react well. But with her nurturing he finally calmed down. I know that could not have been easy. If I need a dog sitter again, I will definitely use Karina.”


“Megan was a tremendous sitter for my dog, Otto. She was communicative and responsive, sending many updates and pictures throughout the stay. Additionally, she was understanding when my travel plans were slightly impacted by flight delays. I could tell she was caring for my pup as much as she cares for her own dog, Lilly. Would definitely recommend Megan for anyone needing care!”

“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Harrisburg on Rover is $42.09 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,438 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Harrisburg. About 92% of Harrisburg sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 NC 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.
