“Chrisie is an excellent sitter!! She's caring and very kind, and I felt very comfortable leaving Darla in her care. She kept in touch with me everyday, even sending pictures. I highly recommend Chrisie and will definitely use her services in the future. Thank you again. ❤️”
“It is so hard for me to leave my pup behind when I travel. Working with Chester really put me at ease. He is very warm, authentic and kind. His daily reports, photos and videos helped me feel connected to my pup while I was away. Chester was able to see my pup’s personality strengths and struggles with insight. I was really happy that Fred had some other dogs to play with and hang with. It was a nice small group not too many, not too few. I would strongly recommend Chester as a caretaker for your furry friend.”
“Joelene is great. Our Boxer Frannie was staying with her during an awful heat wave and I trusted Joelene would keep her safe and cool! As a bonus she’s always quite tired when she gets home so I know she’s had a lot of interaction and play!”
“Danielle was the perfect sitter. She has a big back yard and three playful pups that helped my dog fit in very quickly. She also kept me updated every couple of hours to ease the stress of leaving my dog with a sitter for the first time. I highly recommend!”
“Bryan was great. He and his wife are very nice and they were very kind to our two Small Munsterlander dogs. Very accommodating and willing to do whatever is needed. We did a quick meet / greet at the park prior to the drop off date. While they were with Bryan, he sent pictures and videos, they had great play time in his fenced yard and enjoyed the socializing with his other dogs. They were worn out when we picked them up! They had a great time. I would definitely recommend Bryan and I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have plenty of experience dog sitting for others. I currently work in the vet corps, so caring for dogs is nothing new. Being around dogs isn’t just familiar to me it’s something I genuinely love. I work full-time, but I’m available most afternoons after I get off between 12–2 PM. Thursdays are my longer work days, but I’m fully open on weekends. This schedule gives me plenty of time to provide reliable, attentive care. I have a spacious yard, though it isn’t fenced in. However, my community has a great dog park where I can take your pup to play. I also have a friendly dog of my own who loves meeting new friends and gets along well with other dogs. I’m very attentive and always follow any rules or routines you set for your pet.
About: I don't have much experience with dog care. My family briefly had a dog or two when we lived in Trinidad and Tobago for about 2 years. And my oldest brother briefly lived with a Husky. I've been surrounded by cats most of my life since I was about 15 years old and now I'm 42 years old. I plan on being the sole pet caregiver in my household for your pet(s) and I will treat your pet or dog like an extended part of the family. Whatever rules you wish for me to follow with your pet or dog I will follow and respect them. I have a deep compassion for animals and will treat your pet or dog with love and care. I'm currently a part-time home health aide or caregiver for my Autistic 14 year old son which takes place at our home. I have a family of 5 including three kids and I'm looking for a way to make extra income. We live with 4 cats who spend most of their time outdoors. We have a fenced up yard with plenty of room for your pet(s) to roam around in and play.
“Sheila was an outstanding host. She was attentive and communicative throughout our dog Hazel’s stay. Hazel sometimes has a little separation anxiety but Sheila was great and handled everything to perfection. We felt at ease leaving our pet with her. Highly recommend Sheila . She is my go to when we have to board our dogs!!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs + 4 cats! I love them and care for them like they are my babies. I always make sure I keep them stimulated and happy to ensure a healthy and loving life. I would love to care for and love your animals like my own! I am working per-diem starting in october. My schedule is changing but if you just reach out i'd be happy to share that with you! I am super flexible and can help you with anything! My dogs are very dog friendly and loving to almost all other dogs. They are very socialized to other dogs and cats. I can walk your dog, let them out, or you can drop them off at my house for daycare or meet me to exchange them as well! If your dog isn't dog friendly I would be happy to keep them separate and comfortable! I have a fence for the dogs to run around and play. I also have ties outs for the dogs as well. We live in a wooded neighborhood on a dirt road that is super quiet!
About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own that I care for daily. I also care for my friends pets often and am excited to meet your pets and provide them the best care that they deserve. I am available all day on weekends and in the evenings every day. Some week days I am available more often. I am also available for overnights stays. I have a fenced in yard so would be able to have your pets in my home with no concern of them running off or anything like that. If I am caring for your pets in your home I will treat your home like my own, providing the best care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Honesdale
Elizabeth took care of my 8 month old purebred puppy in her home. It was our puppy's first time being away from home, and he adjusted very well to being in Elizabeth's home, due to the excellent care that she provided. He also got along well with her dog, her cat, and her Father; again due to all of the effort and care that Elizabeth administered during the several day stay at her home. I was very satisfied with the level and quality of care that our dog received. Therefore, I will highly recommend Elizabeth as a dog sitter in her home, and I will continue to utilize her as my Rover dog sitter in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Honesdale is $89 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $53 and $95 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 97 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Honesdale. 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 Honesdale 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 Honesdale 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 Honesdale.
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 Honesdale 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 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.
