“Meagan took care of my senior, blind dog. I was gone for 11 days. I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent photos and videos during his stay. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter.”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful taking care of our dog, Nyla. Nyla came home happy, healthy, and tired out from all the fun! We will definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend!”
“I can't say enough good things about Megan and Vitaliy. They are responsive, kind and so convenient for us. Merry and Pippin love going to their house and playing with their dogs.”
“Alyssa was great with Moses. Super responsive and sent pictures of him It was our first time using this kind of service, and she was incredibly patient and kind!”
“Juliana is one word..AMAZING!!! I have used rover many of times and have never felt like I found my person until I met Juliana. She says has not been doing this rover thing for long but it sure seems like it. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her overnight. He came back to me the same way i left him. She responds quickly and also sent me plenty of pictures. I am for sure booking with her in the very near future. Thank you Juliana for keeping Melo safe.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Mary was so responsive and took such loving care of our dog, making sure he was comfortable, happy, and well-exercised. From the moment I met her, I could tell she genuinely loves animals, and it showed in how she treated our pup. She sent me several photos and gave regular updates, which gave me peace of mind. I came home to a happy and relaxed dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!”
“Richard took great care of my dog and provided timely updates and pictures which was very much appreciated. Fanny has some separation anxiety but seemed right at home and comfortable with Richard, I would highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using DogVacay and Lorraine. We could not have been any happier with the entire experience. From start to finish everything went very smoothly, even a change in schedule. Lorraine was just the best. We felt Scooter was in very good hands and knew he would be well taken care of. We enjoyed getting the pictures and Scooter seemed really happy. I think she enjoyed him as well. She was caring and took really good care of him and we are very happy to have her on board when we need her again. Thanks!!!!”
“Curtis saved my weekend by taking my dog, Casper at the last minute. He was good with communication, and Casper looked like he was having a great time. Very professional, and easy to deal with.”
“Catherine and her family were so caring to our elderly dog. They really went out of their way to make sure his separation anxiety and old man ways were managed well. Highly recommend them!”
“Lisa did a great job with our 1 year old lab Franklin, he was very happy there all day. Lisa sent us pictures of him playing. Would definitely use her services again!”
“Anita was great with my pup!! She sent pictures and updates daily - her home is clean and she lives in such a dog friendly neighborhood for multiple walks and fun!! Definitely recommend booking with her!!”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“10 Stars for Betsy and Ron who provide the best home away from home for our Coco! We're so happy to have had her there multiple times now, so she knows that this is her happy place when we are away. So many thanks to them for the field trips, the walks, the play and the love they give her!”
“Debra and Michael are wonderful sitters for our “Meatball”! They understand her and treat her like the princess she is! We know Meatball is in great hands when we are away!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Icedale
Denise is the absolute best! There are sitters much closer to us, but it’s worth going out of our way to have someone we completely trust. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly cares so much about our dogs. We always come home to happy, well-cared-for pups and great updates along the way. We feel so lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone!

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 Icedale 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 Icedale.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Icedale 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.
