“Denise was so patient with our anxious little dog and her updates were so fun and cute. We felt great knowing Charlie was spoiled while we spent a night away.”
“Claire went above and beyond taking care of my puppers. She is dog trainer and after just a few days with our dog, she made significant improvements in our dog's behavior! She is truly a professional and any dog would be so lucky to stay with her.”
“Ruthie was amazing, communicative, sent awesome pictures the whole time, and my dogs loved it. Ruthie even created a little doggie bag to go with a report card review of how great the dogs were. This is a really sweet touch and next time we are in Eugene we will definitely seek out Ruthie and Jolly Olly again - thanks again for everything.”
“Joel and Crystal were very accommodating for my last minute request. My little dog, Paxton, was well cared for and I had no worries about him while I was away.”
“We are so glad we found Amanda and Matthew, and can highly recommend them. They kept us updated with pictures and videos of our pup, Wiley. The only problem was, Wiley looked like he was having so much fun, we figured he wouldn’t ever want to leave! 😎”
“Puka looked happy, shiny, and healthy when I returned home from vacation! A big thank you to Amy for sending photos every day of Puka in cozy, comfy places and for brushing her. I trusted Amy and her family to treat Puka like one of their own and would definitely book with them again! 🥰”
“I’m so glad we found Maddy! She assured me that my precious old gal was fully integrated into their family throughout the stay. I very much look forward to using Maddy again.”
“Shelby is fantastic! Our furbaby was well loved and cared for during his overnight stay. Great communication and photos to share updates. We will reach out to book again in the futur. Thank you, Shelby!”
“Katelyn was an amazing host, she was so good with Chaucie, and loved his time with Gus. She was very attentive to him, did everything asked in making him feel comfortable. Sent pictures and video to update me, will definitely use her again”
“Amazing family!!! Keith & Co brought Grover into their home and holiday festivities and made him a member of their family♥️ I don’t think my precious pooch even wanted to come home. Truly felt like my boy was in the best hands♥️💜💙”
“Joe did a great job with my dog. He sent pictures and updates daily and gave me such peace of mind that my girl was well taken care of. Will absolutely be using him for boarding again.”
“Mari and Steve were super communicative and sent us pictures regularly. They kept our dog busy and he was super happy and relaxed when we picked him up.”
“Our pup had a lovely stay with Julie. She is very kind and clearly has a huge heart for animals. It gave us a sense of peace to know our dog was well looked after and shown a lot of love. We appreciate the thoughtful picture updates that were sent to us. Peaches appeared content and happy when we arrived to pick her up.”
“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”
“Shay was great to work with! Dennis had a great weekend and I got regular updates and pictures on how he was doing! Would definitely use her again in the future. Thanks for taking such great care of our Dennis:)”
“They were both awesome!! We were coming from out of town so naturally nervous to leave our dog, but they were so comfortable with him. It was obvious they have dealt with a lot of different temperaments and were super communicative and sent lots of great pics!”
“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”
“Tracy provided incredible care for Mino for a week while I was away. She sent me a photo update once a day, which was especially reassuring while Mino was adjusting to her space during the first few days. Mino also has trauma from his life before rescue, and Tracy has ample experience in this area. When I picked up Mino, he was happy, rested, and he even came near my car for a minute. A truly positive experience for my dog.”
“Pete had another stay with Wilna. When we pulled into the driveway for drop off, he squealed like he was happy to visit friends. And now that he’s home again, he is completely chill. So I know he had a good time. Thanks, Wilna!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Harrisburg on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 332 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Harrisburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
100% of Harrisburg sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Harrisburg landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Harrisburg 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 Harrisburg.
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 Harrisburg 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 OR 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.
