“Nicolle was amazing with our new puppy! We have only had her for 2 weeks, so we were nervous about leaving her with a sitter, but Nicolle put us at ease. She was prompt in her responses both prior to the booking and during the booking and sent photos. Our pup came back happy and well cared for”
“We love Bobby!! He is amazing with our dog Bacon and we love his flexibility with our fluctuating schedule. We can always count on and trust him! 10/10!!”
“Tim was great! Friendly demeanor and lives in a wonderful location with quick access to the SRT; our pup was very happy. He came home clean, loved, and well taken care of. We will absolutely reach out to Tim in the future!”
“Michael and Loraine took great care of Jax, our Bichpoo. You can tell they have had dogs and are true dog lovers. Jax took to them right away, thanks to their loving manner and welcoming warmth. We’re already booked for our next trip!”
“Tania was an amazing sitter for our dog Billie! She sent loads of pictures and made sure our pup was comfortable the whole visit. She was very professional and clearly knows what she’s doing around dogs - we will definitely be reaching out again!”
“We could not be happier with our experience with Michael and Adelie! Olive stayed with them for 2 weeks while my husband and I were on vacation overseas. She settled in at their home quickly and became fast friends with their dog Parsley! We received daily pictures of their adventures and it was clear Olive was so happy and comfortable during her stay, which put our minds at ease. We are thrilled to have found Michael and Adelie and would not hesitate to have them look after Olive 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.”
“Our VERY energetic puppy had a great time. We received updates once a day and Hillary even provided a few item we had forgotten for our dog. As we were new to boarding our dog she went through the entire process which helped a lot. We couldn’t be happier and would definitely recommend Hillary.”
“Melanie was able to watch my dog Sophia on fairly short notice when I had to go out of town. She was flexible and responsive. Sophia had a great time with her dog Pippa and it seemed like she was sad to leave so I know she was in great care.”
About: Hi, I’m April! I’m 28 and live in Philadelphia in a house with a fenced-in yard. I’m a lifelong dog lover and currently have two dogs of my own—my oldest is 12 years old and my youngest is 1½—so I’m comfortable caring for dogs at different ages, energy levels, and stages of life. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to spend extra time with dogs and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I’m looking to pick up a second gig doing something I genuinely enjoy, and caring for dogs feels like the perfect fit. Whether your dog needs a walk, some extra attention during the day, or a comfortable place to stay while you're away, I’d love to help. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident leaving your dog in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat your pup like one of my own. I have a fenced yard where dogs can safely get some fresh air and play, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, preferences, and care instructions. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup! 🐾 I work from home Mondays and Fridays and during the week I work 9-5. I will be able to fit pet care into my schedule fairly easily especially on weekends, or before and after work. I love animals and care for them as they were my own. I have two dogs of my own, who are spoiled and loved very much.
“I am very anxious about leaving my dog with anyone and I felt very calm and good about leaving Rosie with Christin. She was clearly very attentive. Sent me lots of updates and photos, which I always really appreciate. She gave Rosie all kinds of loving attention. I could not ask for a better situation when I have to leave my beloved dog under someone else’s care.”
“Ceara is amazing! She takes great care of my dog & keeps me up to date often & through out the day. My dog is always happy to see Ceara. I leave town feeling confident that she is in good hands!”
“Our dog James had a blast with Emelie and her pup! We had pictures and videos sent through the weekend and we could tell he was having a blast. We will definitely be requesting her services in the future!”
“Joseph took great care of my dog while boarding during a long weekend. He was responsive and sent plenty updates. Joseph understood my dogs individual needs very well and made sure to engage him. My dog Ivan came home a satisfied (and tired) boy! Will definitely continue to utilize his service .”
“Lynda is great! I 100% recommend her. This was my first time leaving my dog meatball somewhere else and I was very nervous since he is an anxious and hyperactive dog. Lynda was very patient with meatball and very communicative, she was also great when it came to introducing meatball with other dogs, meatball was so happy when I picked him up and tired (which is good).”
“Samantha was very hospitable with my Oshi. He was there 2 nights and Samantha seemed very apt to handle a skittish dog. I was apprehensive in leaving him at her home because she had a young son, but there were no issues that she communicated. However, the biggest concern I had was the heavy cigarette smoke in her house and the smell of which clinging to both Oshi’s and his bag of things left there when I picked him up.”

Becky and Christian did a great job taking care of Freya. They sent me daily update photos and answered my texts quickly. Freya was very comfortable and relaxed when I picked her up after she stayed in their home. I will definitely have them take care of Freya again.
Gabriela is one of Barkley’s favorite sitters. She loves the whole family and gets so excited when I drop her off. It’s a great comfort when someone loves your dog as much as you do. I never worry when Barkley is there. I’ve already scheduled more time with her because of that.
Lizzy took wonderful care of my dog over a weekend at her house, and I would definitely send my pup to Lizzy’s again for a stay! My dog has anxiety and takes daily medication, and Lizzy had no issues providing her care. Lizzy was very communicative providing updates and answering questions with quick responses. My pup loved spending time in her spacious, fenced in backyard and came home very happy!
Jacqueline is the best dog sitter! She had a handful with my rescue Dude, a Shih Tzu mix. He was not medicated enough, because I did not realize that he was not quite as comfortable as he seemed at the Meet & Greet. Jacqueline called us, and we figured out a different medication schedule which did work. I recommend this sitter highly!
Sam and her daughter took care of our Bernese Mountain dog for three weeks while we were gone over the summer. She was easy to schedule with, and responsive when we checked in to see how things were going. She was thoughtful about introducing our dog to her dog (as well as her cats). Our dog came home happy! I would recommend Sam if you are looking for a dog sitter!
Barbara was great with Java Chip! She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, followed all care instructions, and made Java Chip feel right at home in a clean, safe environment. Barabara genuinely loves the dogs in her care. We'll definitely book with Barbara again!
I can't thank Lindsay enough for taking such amazing care of my 10-year-old dog, Peanut. I had a family emergency and needed to travel unexpectedly, and she accepted my last-minute request without hesitation. This was the very first time I had ever left Peanut with anyone, so I was incredibly nervous. Lindsay made the entire experience so much easier by sending me regular updates, messages, and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She and her family treated Peanut like he was one of their own. They were patient, loving, and attentive to his needs, and I could tell he was well cared for and comfortable. Knowing my senior pup was in such good hands meant the world to me during a difficult time. I wholeheartedly recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter. Thank you, Lindsay, for everything you did for Peanut—we are so grateful!
Katherine was an absolute life saver and caregiver to our dog, Mandy, while we were on vacation. She had recently had some swelling due to a bug bite. It was horrible timing to go on vacation, but Katherine had everything under control and made sure to let me know everyday how she was doing. She had to give her medicine multiple times per day and had no problems. I appreciated all of the daily pictures, videos and even the way they included Mandy in their 4th of July celebration. I highly recommend her. And I’m grateful to have found a dependable dog sitter for our next out of town event. Thank you again!

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.
