“Jenny was wonderful. She took great care of our 2 dogs for a whole week. Our 1 dog who typically has anxiety when we're away seemed as happy as could be! We appreciated photos throughout the week!”

“We recently had to board our dog, Coco, with Joyce on very short notice due to a family emergency. We can’t thank her enough for her incredible care and support during this difficult time. From the moment we dropped Coco off, it was clear she was in good hands. Joyce was attentive, kind, and made sure Coco felt comfortable and loved. We truly appreciate the extra effort Joyce put into making our pup feel at home. We’ll definitely be returning for future boarding needs. Thank you, Joyce, for being such a wonderful host!”

“Brionna took amazing care of my dog! She sent regular updates and pictures, and my dog came home happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again.”

“Our dog Levi had the best time! Amy and her family were so loving to our boy and kept us very well updated! Absolutely will be sending him back to play and stay again! Grateful for all they did!”

“Keisha was very kind and loving towards CJ. Her kids loved CJ and was very attentive towards him. She kept him on his diet and he has no stomach issues. Thank you Keisha for being so kind and loving.”

“Katlyn was great! Kept us updated on our dog, sent pictures, and gifted him the only toy he couldn’t stop playing with! Katlyn was able to take him last minute and a day earlier to make our trip easier! Very professional and personable as well! Looking forward to booking with her in the future as well!”

“I couldn’t have asked for more loving people to keep my fur baby while we were away! They treated Tater as though he was part of the family, and sent frequent photos and updates. I never had to worry about Tater’s happiness or wellbeing. Thank you all so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy! ❤️❤️❤️”

About: Hi, I’m Shelby! I’m the founder and owner of Top Tier Dog Training LLC. Animals have always been a giant part of my life. I went to school and graduated with a degree in veterinary medicine and animal behavior. I founded Top Tier dog training in October 2021. I’ve been training dogs and placing service dogs ever since. I have about 10 years of handling and training experience. Back in the day I used to volunteer at a local animal shelter and worked for a dog training organization. I’m always working towards bettering myself and furthering my education as I believe there is always something new to learn. My goal is to provide a safe environment for dogs and their owners to teach you how to build a relationship with your dog the right way. Taking care of dogs is my full time job. I’ve created the perfect dog facility at my home to ensure your pups have the proper and safe space that they deserve. This means they will have care around the clock. I have a training facility at my home with a fenced in yard! My dogs get along great with others, this means your dogs will have lots of play dates and company. Other dogs aren’t your dog’s thing?! No worries, I have enough space to ensure your dog will have its own private setting.
“Chris provided a wonderful home environment for my anxious pup and checked in frequently with updates and pics. Chris is gentle, calm and laid back, which worked well with my dog. When there were difficulties, such as getting my dog to sleep in his crate the first night, Chris was flexible and adaptable, which I greatly appreciated. I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Chris’ capable hands and would call on him again to pet sit.”

About: Hi there! I’m Courtney – lifelong animal lover, seasoned pet parent, and your pet’s next favorite human. 🐾 From fluffy kittens to wise senior pups, I’ve cared for just about every kind of furry (and finned!) friend you can think of - cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits… basically everything except the slithery and scaly crew (sorry, lizards and snakes, you're adorable but not my specialty!). With a lifetime of experience and a current household that includes four cats and two dogs (yes, it’s as wonderfully chaotic as it sounds), I’ve seen it all - from zoomies and belly rubs to insulin shots and joint supplements. I’ve raised pets from their earliest days through to their golden years, including those with special needs like hip dysplasia and diabetes. Administering routine meds and providing compassionate, attentive care is just part of the package. I know firsthand that pets are family, and when you're away, you deserve peace of mind knowing your beloved companions are safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether your pet is a snuggly couch potato, an energetic explorer, or a quirky little character with special routines, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Let’s make your time away as stress-free as a sunny nap in a windowsill. ☀️🐕🐈⬛ I have a flexible daytime desk job, allowing me to set my own schedule and typically wrapping each day by 5p so my evenings are free. I'm happily married and my husband also works a flexible day job so he is able to hold down the fort with our pets and teens so that I can take care of your family when you're away! I'd love to provide your pet with drop-in care that suits their individual and unique needs, whether that's going for walks, playing in an enclosed yard, or hanging out for a bit for belly rubs, cuddles, and treats. I'm flexible to each pet's needs and want to be sure they feel loved and cared for in your absence. And of course, it's important to me to be sure they are in a clean, safe, fed environment during the times that I'm not there - whether that means making sure water dishes are full, messes are cleaned up, doors are secured, temperatures are comfortable, etc. I've worked with pets who prefer crate-training to those who are allowed free reign, and am comfortable with whatever YOUR structure is for your pet. If they're happy, I'm happy.
About: I’ve been caring for and loving dogs my entire life, with extensive hands-on experience caring for large and senior dogs. I’ve volunteered over 1,000 hours at Damien’s Gift animal sanctuary, caring for animals with a wide range of needs. I’ve adopted large senior dogs and have experience with breeds including Kuvasz and Huskies. I’m comfortable with grooming, administering medications, and providing the patience and attention every dog deserves. I’ve opened my home to provide a temporary, loving place for many dogs when their owners faced homelessness, medical issues, or other difficult circumstances. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved dog in someone else’s care, and I treat every dog as one of my own. Availability I work part-time from home so I’m usually here with the dogs. I’m home and available most of the time, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to work with you on your dog’s individual schedule and needs. Our Environment Your dog will stay in a peaceful, spacious 60-acre homestead at the end of a quiet road, surrounded by a creek and plenty of room to explore. I have a very secure, fully fenced large yard for safe outdoor time and plenty of space to relax. I have miles of walking trails through the woods, around the fields and down to the creek. Inside my home, I have several kennels available if needed, including a large 5’ x 10’ kennel and a 3’ x 5’ kennel. Most importantly, dogs are treated as part of the family and receive plenty of love, attention, and supervision.

“Super nice I’m sure Annabelle loved her stay!! Communication at its finest!!! It was Annabelle’s first time staying with a stranger and Alexis made her feel at home!! would book with her again❤️❤️❤️”

“Sarge absolutely loved her visit! They welcomed her like she was a dog of theirs but more importantly Sarge relaxed with them immediately with no barking which she usually does. We are so thankful that now we have a regular sitter for Sarge who will treat her like we do!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine passion for animals and my commitment to providing personalized, attentive care. I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs and preferences, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. Whether it's administering medications, sticking to routines, or providing extra playtime and cuddles, I go the extra mile to make sure your pet's experience is as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Plus, I offer regular updates and photos so you can rest easy knowing your furry friend is in great hands! I’m currently in school full-time and work as a waitress part time. Whether it's scheduled walks, feeding times, or play sessions, I ensure that each pet receives the attention they need without disrupting my other commitments. I manage my time efficiently, so I can adapt to the specific needs of your pet, whether they require extra care or routine check-ins. My love for animals naturally integrates into my day, making pet sitting a fulfilling part of my week, while also ensuring your pet gets consistent, reliable care when you're away. When I care for pets in your home, I make sure to follow your pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and special care instructions. I take extra steps to provide comfort and familiarity by keeping their environment unchanged, offering plenty of playtime, and ensuring they feel safe. I also take care of tasks like bringing in the mail, watering plants, and ensuring your home stays secure and tidy during my visits.
About: Hi! I'm a caring, dependable, and responsible dog lover who understands that pets are a part of the family. I have been caring for pets since I was very young. I am committed to giving every dog the the attention they deserve. Your dog's safety and happiness are my top priority. I'm available for boarding and pet sitting on weekends. I am also available for dog walking during evenings and weekends. I am usually at home during evenings and weekends to care for pets. I have a yard where pets can sit out and sun bath. I also have a very friendly shi-poo that will keep your fur baby company.
“I would definitely recommend Sarah for watching your dog. She took such good care of my Murphy while I was away on an unexpected work trip. Sarah sent lots of pictures and updates. Murphy seemed right at home there on her big comfy couch.”

“I felt very confident that my dog Asher was well taken care of at Jena's house. She sent pictures daily which showed him having just as much fun as we had on our vacation away! I look forward to using her in the future.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. My childhood cat lived to 22, and I grew up with Golden Retrievers, including helping care for a litter of puppies. I also worked as an assistant manager at a large pet daycare facility and now have two rescue dogs of my own. I’m very active and love walking, so I’m happy to give dogs plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention based on their needs. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work part-time in a flexible office role and can also work remotely, while I am building my real-estate career. That gives me the ability to plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and staying consistent with each pet’s routine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fenced yard, a large back porch, a walkable neighborhood, and a park nearby for walks and playtime. My two rescue dogs are used to sharing the furniture, so visiting pets will have plenty of comfortable places to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medication instructions, and any house rules—while keeping you updated with photos and messages. As a former college coach and admissions counselor, I have spent most of my career in trusted, responsibility-heavy roles, and I bring that same attentiveness and care to every pet.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Jefferson
Chelsea was phenomenal - highly recommend! We needed a sitter for Niko and Spiro for two nights over Thanksgiving holiday , and Chelsea could not have been more accommodating. As others have mentioned, she sends pictures and text updates to help put us at ease, as we are not used to being away from our boys overnight. She even spoiled the boys with turkey and turkey bone broth (with our permission of course!) as a thanksgiving day treat! The boys returned home happy and tired out from all the fun. Thank you so much Chelsea and family!

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 Jefferson 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 Jefferson.
<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 Jefferson 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 , 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 .
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.
