“Emmanuel was a super doggy care taker. From the moment I took my dog to him, he made sure my dog was comfortable. He took my dog for a little walk to get my dog used to the yard. Manny sent pictures and I can see my dog was having a good time. I appreciate the care that I received”


“We needed to arrange this at the last minute and she was very flexible. Sent us an update every couple hours and was very attentive. Very friendly and Sophie had a wonderful time.”
“Jennifer and Jon were fantastic!! Our 8 month old King Charles Spaniel was taken care of and treated like family. We were sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend and were kept updated about Maisy’s activities. It was wonderful to go away for the weekend and have no worries that our puppy was in great hands. We will definitely have our precious puppy stay with them again!! We give Jennifer and Jon our highest recommendation without reservation!!”

“My Murphy was in exceptional care with Kimberly. In the photos she sent I could truly tell my baby was happy. She provided attention and love. Already planning using Kimberly in a couple months and probably even day visits beforehand. I am extremely satisfied with her service she provided.”

“CoCo stayed over for 4 nights and there was definitely lots of TLC! I recieved a daily picture and update on how he was doing which kept our minds at ease :) thank you!”


About: To me, pet sitting is never just a job; it is a commitment to keeping your best friend safe, happy, and loved. I know how deeply difficult it is to leave your dog behind. That is why my primary goal is to provide a seamless "home away from home" experience where your pet becomes a cherished part of my family. With over six years of dedicated dog care experience and as a proud parent to my own friendly 3.5-year-old dog, I understand canine behavior and companionship deeply. Your pup will instantly have a built-in playmate and a comforting routine. Your pup will never be lonely here, as I am home full-time to provide constant care, attention, and companionship, meaning our guest dogs enjoy round-the-clock supervision and love from dedicated adult. I maintain a reliable, active routine where our dog, Bruno, enjoys a 20 to 30-minutes walk twice every day, and your dog will be happily included in all of our daily strolls. While I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor exercise and socialisation. Inside, I offer an incredibly spacious layout designed for canine comfort. I have a dedicated separate room and a large, finished basement where guest dogs can freely play, run around, and sleep securely. To ensure a safe, healthy, and clean environment for our young toddler, our own dog, and your pup, I ask that all guest dogs be fully potty trained and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Beyond offering a fun environment, I bring peace of mind. I am highly experienced in administering oral medications, so you can rest assured that any specific healthcare routines your dog requires will be handled safely, accurately, and on time. Because we have a toddler, I maintain a very clean, structured, and safe home environment where all interactions between dogs and children are closely supervised. I treat every guest dog like a member of our own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and personalized care!
“Scott loves dog and my dog had a great time with him. What attracted my attention at the beginning was Scott’s long term experience of taking care of dogs and turned a rescued dog into a therapy dog. During meet and greet, Scott was transparent and he told me his life stories particularly with dogs by showing many pictures. He missed his last dog Jack very much. He also patiently learned my dog’s behavior in order to make my dog being less stressful and comfortable during boarding. He was willing to make changes to accommodate my dog’s behavior and he prepared well before I dropped off my dog. He updated me at least once a day with multiple pictures. I could see my dog was happy, playful and tired. When I picked up my dog, Scott reviewed details with me what happened during my dog’s stay. I highly recommend Scott being your dog sitter. Your dog will be in good hands.”

“Joann and Angelina were amazing with our dog! My Sully is a very anxious pup and attached to his humans. This makes it hard to leave him with someone new. Joann and Angelina made this difficult thing to do so much easier! Joann texted me throughout the day and even sent me some pictures to assure me that he was okay. Oh and their dog Remi is such a sweet boy and loves people and was so good with accepting my dog as well. Our day went longer than we expected and Joann and Angelina were willing to help out longer than expected. I am so thankful to them for taking care of my dog and will definitely book with them again when needed.”


“Theresa and her entire family have truly treated Sissy like family. Everything from drop off to pick up was easy and seamless. I have so much peace about leaving my dog for an entire week knowing how much she was going to be loved and cared for. We cannot thank you enough! Sissy loves you all!”

“Christy and her family were great with our dog Bucky, who is an excitable one year old Australian Cattle Dog. I got regular updates and felt very good leaving our pup with her.”

“My high energy toy poodle Remy instantly loved Tracy and she treated him like her own pup! She sent me the cutest photo updates during my 4 day travel. I felt fully at ease knowing that Remy was receiving a lot of love and having lots of fun! Will definitely use her service again in the future. Thanks again Tracy!”


About: Hi! My name is Joan. I am recently retired and live on a farm. I have had dogs most of my life and have felt the passion to start dog sitting after losing our 15 yr old beloved dog fairly recently. I sure miss having furry four legged ones around to share my love for dogs, and want to be able to love on yours as I would my own. Having used Rover many times in the past for our own dog over the years, I know how very important it is to find someone you know you can trust to love & care for your pup, that perfect place that you won’t have to worry about them while you hoomans are away, that would be Me! I live on a farm with lots of acreage for running and playing. I also have experience with administering medications if needed. I want to make a worry free home away from home experience for your best friend(s) while mom & dad are away. With being retired, and pretty much a homebody, I will make sure that I will be home at all times to care for your pup. Potty breaks and play time will be frequent, with living on a farm we will be sure and have plenty of walking and running space for your pup. I live on a tucked off the road farm with plenty of acreage to run and play. Our farm is not a working farm, meaning we have no farm animals on the property. I have never crated any of my dogs, therefore I would not be crating yours unless of course you ask me to and provide the crate.
“I had a wonderful experience. Kadie took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos. She was incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, attentive dog sitter! Thank you so much for loving my dog as if he was yours! 😊”

“To sum it up in one word AMAZING! This was my first time Isabella has not been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Maria and her family took wonderful care of her. I got pictures and updates multiple times a day. Maria responded quickly if I had any questions. She also checked with me prior to doing anything we did not discuss at drop off to be sure I was ok with it. Isabella had such a wonderful time I don’t think she wanted to leave lol. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”

“Rochelle and her mom Vanessa were great . Nanuks first time away from home so it was a little rocky for him but from videos he seemed ok in his out door activities. I will def recommend them. as they were also perfect in pick up and drop off. tired from vacay it was nice to get your furbaby delivered:) so yes to them furbaby is in good hands. thank you ladies xoxo”

“George did such a good job watching Milo! He was attentive to him being comfortable and communicated with me multiple times a day! I could tell Milo was taken care of very well! Would use him again!!”

“Marleny and Luis were amazing. They were able to watch my pup on short notice and sent pictures throughout his stay. Totally stress free experience and my dog had a great time.”


“Deanna is great. Her communication was fantastic and I enjoyed the pictures she sent. You can tell she really cares about the animals in her care. Our dog has a medical history (not a constant issue, but occasional issues) that we were upfront about and we really love that she has a veterinary background. She had no concerns about caring for our boy. When we went to pick him up, we could tell he (and the other dogs) was well cared for.”

“My dog LOVED staying with Jahada when I had to go out of state last minute. He came back super happy with a toy that he is now obsessed with and I was sent pictures and videos throughout the days. Jahada was AMAZING!!! There’s no one I’d rather leave my dog with.”

There are 409 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Jim Thorpe. About 92% of Jim Thorpe sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
