“Highly recommend. Our boy was well taken care of with daily updates and pictures. He loved playing with her dogs and actually came home pretty tired from all the activity. Will definitely be using Melissa again.”
“Michelle took amazing care of our dogs while we were out of town! Her house and yard are a dog’s a paradise. She was also super responsive to messages and sent lots of pictures! I highly recommend her for boarding!!”
“Fueron increíbles con el cuidado de nuestros 2 perritos, muy amables y estuvieron en contacto con nosotros de cómo estaban nuestros perritos, sin duda estamos muy agradecidos por el cuidado que les dieron, excelente servicio ☺️ They took incredible care of our two dogs. They were very kind and kept us updated on how our dogs were doing throughout their stay. We are truly grateful for the love and care they gave them. Without a doubt, they provided excellent service, and we highly recommend them.🙂↔️”
“Amazing, caring, kind, compassionate, responsible.... Jessica and her family are phenomenal. They took care of our senior girl for 11 days while we were out of the country. Jessica was so professional and organized as we prepared for such a long time away. She helped me prepare emergency medical care contingencies (our dog is almost 16) in case it became necessary and she thought of things for us to plan prior to our departure. Given that she is a veteran in the Rover system, Jessica knew everything that I didn't even know I had to think about. Her professionalism was second only to her caring compassion. She loved our dog like one of her own, giving snuggles and love to her, making sure that our girl handled all of the changes smoothly. Our dog bonded with another senior dog and Jessica would send regular updates (with pictures and a video) of our girl playing, galloping and spending time in the sun. All of these things eased my anxiety about leaving our dog for so long. I would absolutely book with Jessica again. Her home is a haven and our Zena loved her time there. When we picked our girl up, she ran to us and was happy to see us -- but she also ran back to Jessica and her family for affection, showing me that our dog was comfortable, loved and well cared for in Jessica's home while we were away. Without reservation, Jessica receives my highest recommendation.”
“Patrick was great with our pups, Yeti and Casper, and seemed to take very good care of them while we were out of the country. We also appreciated the daily updates with pictures! We will definitely take them back next time we are out of town.”
“Jillian was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover and the experience exceeded our expectations. She offers one client at a time service which was bonus since we have a senior paced dog and a crazy puppy. Jillian was extremely responsive and provided pictures daily. Her fenced in backyard was great and the dogs really enjoyed roaming around. We will definitely use Jillian again on our next vacation without the dogs!”
“Tamakia was very great with communication from the start. She gave my dog the attention he needed and sent updates and pics throughout his stay. He received plenty of outside time and was able to make himself at home during his stay.”
“Brittany was amazing! She willingly met for a meet and greet to ensure all of our comfort levels, including my two fur babies, before I even agreed to book. She also responded immediately any time I reached out. She sent me photos, and I just knew Xena and Bruno were happy and well loved during my vacation. I would 💯 book with her again.”
“Andrew and his family were wonderful with our dog. We were so comfortable leaving our dog in his care and our dog warmed right up to him. We received texts, with photos, from Andrew every day. He is an awesome dog sitter!!”
“Erin has now watched Eleanor (12 year old Chinese Crested - Beagle) twice, and has been absolute dream to work with! Eleanor is quite picky when it comes to sitters, and takes quite a long time to warm up to people. Her connection with Erin was immediate. I received multiple updates every day, very clear line of communications, and drop off and pick up very timely. I highly recommend Erin, and look forward to working with Erin many more times.”
“Emily and her family made me feel so comfortable leaving Apollo. I was nervous to leave him since we just moved to a new place but she took time to introduce our pets and bring him into her home as their dog. So grateful. I will book again.”
“Tyler was great with my dog Riley! She immediately took to his house and yard, as well as Tyler himself. He was flexible in terms of scheduling a meet-and-greet that was kinda last minute and was professional. He also provided plenty of photo updates of Riley throughout the stay. Overall, I would definitely use Tyler again for dog sitting.”
“Coralee does such an amazing job with my dog! She's amazing about updates and incredibly flexible. I always get a played out and sleepy puppy when I come to pick him up.”
“Valerie always goes more than above and beyond in taking care of our dog! She is so attentive to his needs, gives him tons of exercise, and sends so many happy updates so we know he’s thriving while we’re out of town.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Breanna doggie sitting our senior girl over the weekend. Breanna’s communication throughout the process was amazing proving updates and photos. Her experience with dogs truly showed. We had no worries! Highly recommend Breanna. Our girl misses her already.”
“My dogs really enjoyed staying with Jeremy & his wife. Jeremy was a pleasure to interact with and understanding of my dog's accomodations. I would 100% recommend him to others!”

Crystal is an absolute joy to work with! She has such a warm, positive energy, and her communication throughout the entire stay was fantastic. Most importantly, our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’re so glad we found Crystal and will absolutely be boarding with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone!
Jennifer is absolutely incredible!! She is so kind, responsive and flexible. Hank was so happy during his stay and treated like a king! Jennifer helped tremendously to put our minds at ease that Hank was taken very good care of during an extremely difficult time in our family. We cannot recommend her enough!

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.
87% of sitters in Irwin 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 Irwin 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 Irwin.
<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 Irwin 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.

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.
