“I can’t recommend Alexandra enough! She has been taking care of my dog, Milo, for quite some time now, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in her care. She and family truly treat Milo like he’s their own. He’s always so well cared for, loved, and honestly spoiled in the best way possible. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and it shows in everything she does. She’s reliable, kind, attentive, and always keeps me updated, which means so much. Milo is always happy to see her, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
“SIQI was the best dog sitter we have ever had for our 2 medium to large dogs. She was extremely responsive and very kind. She had dogs before and knows how to care for dogs really well. She went above and beyond for our girls. One of our girls nails chipped and she quickly sent a picture and followed up with what she did. We are looking forward to having her care for our girls in the future!”
“Rebecca was so great with Birdie!! She was well taken care of and I received updates every day. I could tell Birdie was tired when she got home from her time with her. Will definitely book with Rebecca again in the future. 🙂”
“Our first time leaving Max with Sangeetha and I was very nervous. Max, who was a rescue from a neglect situation, is aggressively affection. At 85lbs, he can sometimes prove to be a LOT. Sangeetha and her husband were wonderful with Max! He was so happy and comfortable with them (I have many pictures to prove it) and he came home better behaved than before he left!!! Sangeetha will be our sitter of first choice from here on out!”
“Emelie is a great dog sitter! This was our first time having our 2 year old dog stay with Emelie. She provided a meet and greet well ahead of his stay, and was very communicative and responsive ahead of and during the long weekend. We had to make a last minute change in our schedule, and she readily accommodated. Her set-up is ideal, with plenty of outdoor and indoor space, and a few other dogs to play with. Finally, Emelie gets dog social dynamics and is very effective at managing the set up all around.”
“Allison and the girls took such great care of Cookie! As first time Rover users, Allison was patient with my husband and provided regular check-ins, updates and pictures! It was clear Cookie had a nice time and was much less stressed than when we typically board her. We look forward to booking again with Allison and Kevin in the future!”
“It was such a pleasure leaving our dog overnight with Rachel and her husband. You can tell what dog-lovers they are! Even though it was only for one night, Rachel sent pictures and videos to keep us updated on the goings on of our pup. It set our minds at ease knowing we could enjoy the holiday without worrying. We’ll be sure to use Rachel again!”
“This is my first time using this website. It was last minute. Zenith accepted my request. Zenith is an excellent sitter, she took great care of my princess. She keep communicating with updates. I would highly recommend her, and would certainly use her services in the future. Thank you Zenith.”
“Kiara was responsive and easy to schedule with. You can tell she has a love for animals and was able to provide updates throughout my dogs stay. I can tell my pup had the best time. Highly recommend!”
“Mary was a super attentive sitter. She made sure Mandy was safe and comfortable at all times. Mandy loves to cuddle and be around people and Mary and her partner were constantly giving her all the attention she wanted! Also when it was cold outside they would cover her paws or give her a sweater which was super sweet. And she provided constant updates every few hours so we always knew how Mandy was doing! Mandy is an older dog and when there was a concern for her health they brought it up immediately. Seriously Mary is a rock star sitter!!”
“Corra had the best time with Dolly and her sons. She was well taken care of with plenty of walks and cuddles. Dolly also kept us updated with frequent pictures. Will definitely book Dolly again !!”
“Perfect place for my pampered pet. I thought he might not want to leave. Lots of cozy places for him to snuggle with other pets and both Emily & Christine. Plenty of room to run around outside and fun kids too. play with”
“We had a wonderful experience with Kat and Matt! They took great care of our two dogs over the weekend and made sure we always felt connected by sending regular photo updates. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were happy, safe, and well loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book with them again!”
“The Best!!!!! We will definitely recommend Brad. He was beyond awesome with our pug! I know he was well taken care of. It was so nice to get pictures. Hope to be able to have him take care of our boy again! Meg H.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ithan
We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter Stephany and Brandon! Communication was prompt and consistent, and we really appreciated receiving regular updates and pictures of our pet. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our pet was being well cared for while we were away. Their two daughters also helped out, which was so sweet and made it feel like our dog was getting lots of extra love and attention. We couldn’t be happier with the care they provided and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter on Rover!
George was amazing with my pup. My 5-lb Yorkie is quite anxious, but seemed at ease with George from drop off. I received plenty of pics and updates. My dog was quite relaxed at pickup, and George worked with me as I was a bit early for my pickup window. Would highly recommend - George really does seem like a "dog whisperer". 5 stars!

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 Ithan 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 Ithan.
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 Ithan 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.
