“Lorraine was absolutely fantastic with my pups! Not only they were well taken care of but she also gave me updates and photos of them daily! And as a mama of two pups that brings peace of mind. My pups loved her and adapted really well. I totally recommend Lorraine as she is a very sweet lady and it shows how much she loves animals ❤️ thank you !”
“Julia was amazing. We had an out of town wedding and she took care of our Finn like her own. She has a little Yorkie named Archie and Finn and he had some much fun together. I was so relieved by Julia's updates and pictures that she sent. Finn loves to walk and she took him out for many walks in her very walkable neighborhood. I highly recommend Julia for your next getaway.”
“Brian was great. From first contact and throughout Navi's stay, communication was prompt and professional. Our golden retriever got along well with his two goldens and she really enjoyed the stay. We received pictures and an update each day. Brian has a large fenced in yard for the dogs to enjoy, along with a screened in porch for some fresh air on rainy days. Brian took time to get to know me and our dog during the initial meeting. He and his family are true dog lovers and we were able to enjoy a week's vacation knowing that our Navi was in good hands.”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“A incredible experience - thanks a lot for your services. I was being informed about the play time, food & everything was perfectly managed. Thank you Richard.”
“Emily and Christine were great with Sherlock. They sent me photos of him playing with their dog, sleeping in their daughter’s room, going on walks, and generally having a blast. I’ve already booked them to take care of him again in a few weeks for an upcoming trip.”
“Candice took great care of our Lily. Of course we were a bit nervous going away for a week and leaving Lily with someone new. Candice welcomed us to her beautiful home with a wonderful smile and assured us that Lily would be fine. After receiving our first picture and report the next day (and everyday thereafter) we knew we had selected the right place for our fur baby and had no worries after that. Lily seemed to be right at home. We highly recommend Candice and her family and will definitely be using her again.”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“Garrett took great care of Allie for us. He responded promptly to messages, was very polite, and went out of his way to help Allie feel at home. She was very happy staying with him, and seemed content when we picked her up. I would definitely recommend and book with Garrett again!”
“Laura was great. She took wonderful care of our sometimes difficult pup and he loved being there with her and her pup Eugene. We’re going away for 10 nights soon and Laura is our first choice of sitters. We definitely recommend her to anyone needing a caring, supportive sitter in their home!”
“I was so relaxed with leaving Rex with Elise. Rex loved Elise with in few seconds and felt comfortable at her home. Elise was very flexible and accommodating with drop in and pick up times. Will definitely use them again!!!”
“Amy and Thomas did an amazing job caring for Peter. He came home happy, healthy, and calm. I'm glad he had the opportunity to interact with their dog Phoebe. Phoebe is delightful and friendly. They communicated with messages and pictures throughout Peter's stay. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Latoya took wonderful care of my Morkie, Cam, for two weeks while I was away. She sent photos and videos which gave me peace of mind. Cam looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Latoya patiently handled all of his little quirks. She made him feel at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Latoya again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs for family and neighbors for several years. I provide reliable attentive care and will make sure your pet will feel safe and loved while you are away! I have a 4 year old Shiba Inu at home so I’m used to dogs with personality. He might growl at first but has always gotten along with the dogs we’ve hosted. I work from home two days a week so I am free to care for doggies 4-5 days a week. I have two kids in school that are also in sports. So we might be gone for an hour or two but never longer. I provide a safe and caring home for your pet while you are away. I will provide pictures and updates of our walks and playtime.
“Simone was absolutely amazing and so kind. My dog was immediately drawn to her and was so happy in all the update photos she sent. Will definitely recommend to anyone and will book again in the future.”
“Lindsey did a fantastic job caring for our 6 month old pup. She communicated a minimum of 2x per day and always provided pictures with each communication. We will definitely be using Lindsey again in the future.”
“Lori watched our dog, Bebe, while we were away on vacation and she did a wonderful job. Bebe can take a bit to warm up to someone new, and Lori did a great job quickly earning her trust! She lives in a quiet area with a fenced-in yard, which was perfect for allowing Bebe to relax. She also sent daily updates with great photos!”
“Tielian takes excellent care of my pet and walks him every day. She even lets him sleep in the bed, whereas at home, my pet is maximum allowed to sleep on the sofa. She sent daily photos to share updates. I would definitely come back and recommend her to other friends.”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Longwood 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 Longwood 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 Longwood.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Longwood. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Longwood 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
