“Michael was great with Bailey, very communicative and quick to respond. It's stressful trying to find someone experienced enough to sit a German Shepherd but Michael was wonderful and put our worries at ease. 10/10”
“So thankful to Lindsey and her family for their welcoming Zoey warmly, helping her adjust as this was her first time, and keeping us posted thruput her stay. Made our trip away easier knowing that she was in good hands. We surely will be seeking their help again.”
“Kash had a wonderful time staying with Briana, her family and his new friend Duke! Briana sent several pictures daily and kept up updated on his eating, playing and sleeping routine. We knew he was getting the love and attention as if he was home.”
“Stephanie was amazing with our not so easy pups. She made our daycation relaxing and stress free! We got pictures and updates all day long. Would highly recommend!”
“We had two dogs stay with Milissa for 4.5 days. This was our first time boarding them anywhere so we weren’t sure what to expect. We had an initial visit to introduce our dogs and discuss arrangements before the scheduled date. Everything was great! She sent daily photos, videos, and updates on how things were going. One of our dogs is an escape artist and she adapted to the challenges and handled it very well. Our dogs were well-cared for and seemed to have a blast with the other dogs. She has a big beautiful fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play. We had open communication through the stay and any concerns or questions were addressed quickly. Milissa made our first boarding experience smooth and easy for us and put our minds at ease.”
“Our dog had a great stay with Erin! We received consistent updates with pictures. Erin was flexible with arranging a meet and greet beforehand. We will definitely be reaching out to Erin again when we need someone to watch our dog!”

I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them.

Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around.

“Mary and her family were great! We had absolutely no worries leaving our dog with them for the weekend. Mary sent updates and pictures throughout the weekend, keeping us posted on how great it was going! Definitely going to rebook!”
“Deserves 10 Stars! Cannot say enough with how happy Moose and I were with the care. I was always updated with pics and messages about my dog and it provided piece of mind that he was happy and well taken care of. Definitely recommend over and over.”

I understand that pets are cherished members of your family, which is why I prioritize their safety, comfort, and unique routines—whether that means sticking to strict feeding schedules, administering medications with care, or giving extra play, exercise, and snuggles. Beyond keeping your companion happy and calm in their familiar environment, I ensure total peace of mind for you by maintaining clear, open communication and sending frequent updates with photos. Reliable, thorough, and genuinely passionate about animal well-being, I am dedicated to providing a stress-free experience for both you and your beloved pets while you are away.

You can rest easy knowing I am entirely reliable and communicative, keeping you closely updated so you never have to wonder how your companion is doing. From strictly maintaining their feeding schedules and medication times to noticing subtle shifts in their mood or energy, my sharp attention to detail ensures your dog’s specific routine, comfort, and safety are met without compromise.
“We needed one day boarding while visiting family. A friend recommended Rover. Kaitlyn was our first choice as she had so many very good reviews. The photos of the large yard and that she had her own dogs and cats helped with our choice. She was very communicative. Photos were sent of our puppy ripping around the back yard (she needs a lot of exercise), playing with other dogs and we learned Sabie likes kiddie pools. She looked very happy. Please know that if you have an iPhone, use the Apple Maps app. Very easy to find the house using that app. Mapquest is a big nope. We will use Kaitlyn again next time we visit the area if we need help with Sabie.”
“Heidi and her family were fantastic with our dogs. Our older dog Caesar is very timid and finicky and our younger dog Brady is very energetic and investigative. They accommodated both their personalities perfectly. Heidi’s daughter even prepared a nice hide away for Caesar in her room. We could not have been happier with their care.”
“Maya is great with the dog. She takes a good care of my dog Maddie. She sent pictures every day to keep us up to date. I would definitely send my dog to her next time when we need and certainly recommend her to everyone who needs a dog care.”
“Angela and Joseph were absolutely wonderful with Amelia and Zelda! From the very beginning, they were kind, attentive, and incredibly caring. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dogs were in such good hands.”
“Gina was great at taking great care of Mimi. She sent numerous updates and photos of Mimi during their daily activities. Gina was attentive to Mimi's needs. Our dog was well cared for. We would definitely have Gina dog sit our dog in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog sitter.”
“Somdipa watched my Boston terrier, Dude, while I went on vacation for a week, and everything went great! I felt confident that he was well taken care of the whole time. Dude didn't want to leave, so I could tell he had a fun time. Would be very happy to have Somdipa watch Dude again in the future!”
“Joe took good care of our pup Poe while we were away. He and Vanessa, his boys, and his dog Pickle all gave Poe a very warm and welcoming reception! He was very attentive to all the care details I communicated, and we appreciated how he sent us lots of photos and videos during her stay. Poe was in great spirits when we picked her up, and we plan on booking with Joe again in the future!”

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 Homewood 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 Homewood.
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 Homewood 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.
