“Angeline and Dave treat Sydney like family. They take her for walks and give her lots of love. They always send pictures and updates throughout the stay and were accommodating when we had to pick up Sydney late at night. I would definitely recommend them.”
“Gina took good care of our 1yr old puppy - took her on lots of walks, fun outings to breweries, and play times for our energetic girl. Gina was very easy to work with for us as well. She was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and went out of her way to coordinate a pick up time when we left some of Lilah's stuff behind.”
“Amazing amazing amazing! We trust Bryn and Carson like no other for watching our Benny. He always comes home happy, clean and as if he was right at home the whole stay. Boots and Benny are besties and the photo updates make my whole day. Thank you again!”
“E'Ronda took great care of our 5 month old puppy! He came back super happy and had a bath, trimmed nails and a lot of confidence. E'Ronda was very flexible with my incorrect/changed drop off and pick up times and was very nice and easy to communicate with. We were very happy with everything!”
“Christy is very kind and welcomed our large, sometimes rambunctious, rescue pup into her home. She provided frequent pictures and updates while we were away. We are so appreciative!”
“As always, Valerie was amazing with our little furry family member Penny. It gives us great peace of mind to know that Penny is being cared for by someone as kind, thoughtful, and competent as Valerie. We highly recommend her for your pet! She is the best and we are grateful that she can care for Penny!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Monica and her family while Scotch stayed with them for 10 days. From the very beginning, it was clear that Scotch was in caring and capable hands. Monica kept us updated regularly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Scotch came back happy, relaxed, and well cared for—always the best sign of a great boarding experience. It’s evident that Monica treats every pet like part of her own family. We truly appreciate the warmth, attention, and love she provided. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Monica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring home boarding option, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future. I am sure Scotch misses you Monica 😊❤️”
“Joe is a great pet-sitter. He really takes the time to get to know your dog and the owner. He offered to help me with getting her house trained while I was away and sent me photos of my dog throughout the day. He has a small backyard that is perfect for any size pet. I felt very comfortable leaving MiMi with him and will definitely be using him in the future. I highly recommend him :) ”
“Sarah is a great sitter! My dog is very well cared for and comfortable there. She is very easy to communicate with. I have used her as a sitter before and would definitely use her services again.”
“Sebastian did an excellent job. He took his care of my dog and followed all the feeding and walking instructions. My dog looked happy and calm in all the beautiful pictures. I will definitely try to book with him again next time I'm out of town.”
About: I've been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of pets. Growing up with multiple pets taught me how to recognize their needs, provide loving care, and keep them safe and comfortable. I currently enjoy going on daily walks, so I'm happy to give dogs the exercise and attention they need. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or simply keeping your pet company, I'll treat them like they're my own. I'm reliable, patient, and understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. My schedule is very flexible right now! I recently returned to IUP to finish my senior year of nursing school. While I’m here, I’m available most days for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits whenever possible. My class schedule varies each day, but I’m flexible and will always work around it to provide your pets with the best care and attention! When caring for pets in my client's home, I always follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. I use a leash for all walks and outdoor potty breaks, and I can crate dogs when needed if that's part of their routine. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I'm happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and any special care your pet requires. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while you're away.
“AJ was so great! The first thing I liked was that he asked for a meet and greet before our booking, I think that’s so important. Then he was so kind to our Colby and sent photos throughout his stay to put us at ease. Colby completely enjoyed his stay with AJ!”
About: I have taken care of neighborhood dogs since I was 10 years old. I have done walks as well as overnight sitting. I have two childhood dogs that live with my parents. One maltipoo and one medium golden doodle!! Please note I can NOT pick up or drop off unless you are willing to compensate for the Ubers. I am a five minute walk to campus and have frequent breaks throughout my day to come back home to care for your furry friend! I also have a roommate who has an opposite schedule so chances are someone will be home with your fur baby most of the time! The longest we would be away is about three hours. There is a large grassy field behind the apartment complex where I can take them on walks, potty breaks, and play fetch! I do not have any other animals in the apartment.
“Kate is absolutely amazing! We left our dog with Kate for his first “sleepover” and she went above and beyond to keep us updated the entire time and sent so many photos while we were away on our trip. She took Frankie on tons of walks, played, and he was tuckered out when we returned home to him. Thank you Kate, we will definitely rebook again in the future!”
“Debbie and Adam are absolutely wonderful. Our dog, Wyatt has stayed at their home multiple times. They are very accommodating and responsive. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog sitter!”
“Sam watched my German shepherd, Willow, for an overnight. She communicated really well, took great care of Willow, and very easy to work with. It’s clear to see Sam cares about your animal as much as you do, and we would recommend her to anyone!!”
“I highly recommend Brittany! She took great care of our one year Samoyed for a weekend away. He had a lot of fun playing with her two dogs, and returned home a very happy and tired dog. We were provided pictures and updates of our dog during his stay. Brittany is quick to respond to stay requests, and made drop-off and pick-up very easy.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Christine made it an unforgettable experience!! Normally we board our dogs, but since we were going on a short weekend trip we wanted to try something different. Christine made the entire process super stress-free. We dropped our pups off at her home, where she let us inside and gave us a rundown of what she'd be doing each day for them (how many times she takes them for walks, where they sleep, etc.). It made me feel so much better knowing exactly where they'd be staying and the details of their care! Christine sent several pictures each day with updates on how they were doing, which made this anxious dog-mom feel at ease. She truly cared for our dogs as if they were her own - she even sent them home with handmade bow-ties for their collars :') Any time we need to go out of town for a few days again, we're booking with Christine!! 10000/10 would absolutely recommend.”
“We highly recommend Brittany! She was wonderful with our dog Cookie. She sent us daily photos and it was clear Cookie felt comfortable and had fun during her stay. We would definitely have Brittany care for Cookie again!”
“Christine took great care of my two young energetic dogs while we were away! She kept me updated with pictures and videos. They came home exhausted from all the running and playing in her fenced in yard. We will definitely be using her again.”

Laura and her husband's love for dogs shines through in everything they do. They truly treated my dog as if it was their own. My pup had a minor medical issue (nothing to do with their care) and they made sure he got prompt care and expertly administered his medication. I loved the frequent photo and video updates. They rival some of the professional photos I've had taken! Will use again!
Sarah did a wonderful job watching my dog remmy! Would definitely book with her again. He was with her for two nights and had a great time and came home happy as can be. Really good communication while he was with her as well sending pics throughout the day. Would recommend!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
