“Sandy Faith had a wonderful time at Adiana's. She took such great care of my sweet girl. I will definitely use her again. Sandy had friends to play with too. Adiana took plenty of pictures and keep me updated on how Sandy was doing. I was able to enjoy my birthday without having to worry about Sandy. She's a perfect sitter. Sandy loved her.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets and have experience with special needs animals, seniors and kittens/puppies. I can administer medicine and am very cognizant of a pet’s personality. For example I have a timid cat, a menace cat and a love bug cat. My Siberian husky is more cat than dog too. I can do drop ins or board dogs in my home. I can also stop by for walks. For the board ins I prefer to take in only dogs because I don’t want to stress the kitty crew out, but I’d be available to come do drop ins for the cats. My yard isn’t completely fenced so I’d probably take the doggos to the park at apple grove and for walks around town. I have three friendly cats and my husky also loves dogs.
“Carissa was a great sitter for Lennox - he seems to have enjoyed her care and the company of her pet, Judge. He came back happy! During his stay with her, Carissa kept in touch with me with appropriate updates, including photos and a few short videos. She was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which was great because my return home was delayed a little bit with traffic. I’d recommend her for sure and already booked Lennox for another stay with her in a few weeks!”
“Chester was absolutely fabulous when we had him watch Rocco, our 100lb Catahoula Leopard Dog. My father passed way in a different state so we were trying to find someone to watch Rocco either in our home or theirs so we could attend services. He was a rescue a year ago and didn’t want to put him in a kennel or place where he would think he was being abandoned. After reading that Chester not only boards dogs in his home, but has a large property for long walks and a fenced in area for play, I felt confident contacting him. Chester was able to accommodate our last minute request and had a meet and greet that same day. Rocco met the other dog he was boarding at the time and being Rocco loves other dogs, he was excited to be there which made me feel even better. Having access to other rooms, I one this was the place for him. While away, Chester sent us pictures, videos, and a brief summary every day to let us know how Rocco was doing. We saw Rocco getting walks, playing with the other dogs, getting treats, playing with toys, and just relaxing. That put us at ease knowing Chester treated him like his own. I would definitely recommend Chester and we will definitely have Rocco there again one day.”
About: Hello all, I've owned cats, dogs, and horses for over 20 years now and was their main caregiver starting at 8 y.o. I've worked at many horse barns and pet sitter for many many friends over the years. I have skills in pet healthcare (administering medication, baths, cutting nails, etc), young animals, dog & horse training, rescue animals, and elderly animals. I do my best to provide stress free care for your pets. I am currently working from home full-time! So there is always someone around to take care of your pet! My husband and I mostly like to relax and unwind at home with the occasional dinner date or movie, but are flexible and will be upfront with owners if their pet’s needs cannot be met! When pets are in my home, I always take note of the their state of wellness, looking for stress or anything out of the ordinary. I also will inspect the environment to ensure dangerous items (small items/chocolate/other) are out of reach. While we do not have a fenced in backyard we do have a lunge line that will allow your pet to enjoy running around in the backyard but provides a limit so pets do not go near the back alley road! I make sure pets have access to water at all times. I am able to administer medications easily whether it is as simple as pill pockets or even injections. We also have two dogs of our own as well as a cat! Geordi is a 10 year old Australian Cattle dog who is energetic but respects other pets space, Thor is a 1 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi who loves other playmates, and Wynnona is that our 4 year old cat who tends to mind her own business!
“Wow. Jessica came through with flying colors during a family emergency! I think she did an incredible job! She picked the dog up from the apartment, took care of an aging dog on meds, offered to feed him human food because he ran out of prescription food, and dealt with the accidents from a traumatized 18 year old pup. I would recommend Jessica in a heartbeat. Thank you, Jessica!”
“Christina & Alan are great! I boarded my puppy at her house for 9 days while on vacation. This is my second time using Christina and Alan. I will definitely call on them again when needed. My little Mazy loved playing with her 3 Rottweilers. She actually learned to be a little more obedient being around the other dogs and Christina continuing her puppy training”
“Nathaniel was great with my dogs, they stay with him for 5 days and they looked happy and didn’t give me a hard time when I picked them up. Nathan sent me daily pictures and updated me with my pup condition/situation. One of my dog has allergy and a little hard to handle, and he was patient with him. I will use his service again and I’ll tell everybody I know if they need sitter for their dogs/cats, Nathaniel is a great sitter. Thanks Nath! I appreciated you!”
“Tara was great with our anxious pup (and family)! Communicated well throughout the process- from setting things up to keeping us updated throughout his stay. Thankful to have found someone local to care for our Murphy when we are away! Highly recommend!”
“Michael and Tracy watched our dog Princess for 2 nights while we were staying nearby. They put us at ease and made Princess feel right at home. We got frequent communication and pictures from them. At the time, Princess was the only dog in their care and she was pampered. A puppy was dropped off just before we picked her up and the two of them immediately hit it off and Princess didn’t want to leave, even though she was very excited to see us. Thank you Michael and Tracy for taking care of Princess and treating her like one of your own!”
“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 have been a pet owner for 30+ years (currently own no pets) and a pet sitter from the 80's and 90's when it was new to have someone in your house taking care of pets while traveling. I am new to Wayne County, after living in Delaware County, PA for 50 years. I am looking for a part time work from home job, but in the meantime thought I could fill my days with dog lovin. I miss having my own pet, so loving and caring for others would be a great fit. My home is spacious, with plenty of room to play, sleep and be crated (if necessary). I live on 2 acres, with access to 10k+ acres of woods out my back door. There is plenty of walking and exploring to do out my back door.
“Right from the start, Kerri was so great to us. She came over to meet our dog beforehand and sent us messages with pictures while we were away. She really put us at ease, and we appreciate that so much. We recommend her 100%.”
“If I could give more than five stars, I would—honestly, this was one of the most above-and-beyond experiences we’ve ever had with any service, not just dog sitting. From the very beginning, she was kind, communicative, and incredibly professional—but what truly blew us away was everything that happened *after* we booked her for what was supposed to be just a single day. Due to unexpected circumstances on our end, that one day turned into three… and she handled it with nothing but grace, flexibility, and genuine care. Not once did she make us feel like it was an inconvenience. In fact, she reassured us the entire time and treated our dog like her own. She kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. You could tell our dog was not only well cared for, but truly happy and comfortable. It’s rare to find someone who connects so naturally with animals, but she absolutely does. And then—when we thought we couldn’t possibly be more impressed—she somehow raised the bar even higher. She went out of her way to return our dog to us, taking not one but TWO Ubers to make sure everything worked out smoothly. Who does that?! That level of dedication, effort, and positivity is almost unheard of. The entire time, she maintained the most amazing attitude—warm, patient, and completely unbothered—when most people would understandably be stressed or frustrated. It’s hard to put into words just how grateful we are. She didn’t just “watch our dog”—she showed kindness, flexibility, and a level of commitment that genuinely meant a lot to us during a stressful situation. If you are even *considering* booking with her, do it immediately. She is reliable, compassionate, communicative, and truly goes the extra mile (literally and figuratively). We would trust her again in a heartbeat and will absolutely be booking with her in the future. Thank you again for everything—you are truly one of a kind!”
“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!”
“Alexis was wonderful! She sent notes every day on how Ghillie was doing and what their plans were. She was easy to contact and addressed any issues I may have had. I would definitely have Ghillie stay with her again. He had a wonderful time!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Honesdale is $50
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.

As of July 2026, there are 99 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 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 Honesdale 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 Honesdale 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 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.
