“Nelia is so great! She provides updates at least two times per day, and with multiple pictures. She is very easy to communicate and with timely reply. The kids are very friendly as well. Nelia and her family are definitely recommended! Thank you, Nelia!”
“Kristina was amazing with Lincoln! He was very nervous and shy at first but she did amazing with him. She sent updates and pictures over the weekend so we could stay updated with how he was doing.”
“Gary did a great job taking care of our two dogs (whom we couldn't bear to leave anywhere but a home environment). He was prompt and thorough in his communications, and his depth of experience in dog care was evident. I'd recommend him without hesitation!”
“Augusta is so kind and I appreciate her taking great care of my baby boy. She communicates well and sends picture updates which are much appreciated. My Russy feels comfortable at her home and I’m grateful for Augusta’s hospitality. 😊”
“Wonderful experience with Jeremy and his wife! We were so grateful to find them on short notice, and they took wonderful care of our pup. I think she was almost sad to leave she had so much fun! We will be calling them again 💗”
“Lucia was able to accommodate my last minute boarding request for my puppy. She's communicative, flexible, and provided a very welcoming home. I received multiple photos a day and even came back to a groomed dog. I would recommend Lucia!”
“Denise is awesome! She is kind, communicative, and thoughtful, and provides a friendly and healthy environment for pups. Was great about sending updates and photos daily so I got to see how happy my dog was in her care. We’d love to book with Denise again.”
“My dog Reggie had a wonderful time with Sharon and her dogs! Sharon sent photos and videos throughout the day, and Reggie didn't want to leave! He came home happy and tired. Thank you Sharon!”
“Maple loved her stay! She and Luna became best friends, and I know they tired each other out! Lucas did a great job sending pics every day and letting me know how things were going. Would definitely book again!”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Another wonderful experience with Lindsay. I love how she treats my pup like her own and he seems to fit right in with her and her family. She is such a lovely person; I can't say enough good things and would recommend Lindsay to anyone.”
“Adisyn took care of our 48 pound hound mix for a week while my family was on vacation, and we felt really good about it the whole time. Our dog took to her right away during our meet-and-greet, Adisyn seems very sweet and to really enjoy dogs. She has a lovely fenced in backyard for her dog and ours to run around in, which was a big plus for us. It feels good to have a future pup sitter we trust!”
“Raeann is truly the best. She cares for Bronn as if he were her own. She always sends lots of updates and pictures (which as anxious dog mom I appreciate immensely). I could not recommend her enough and Bronn is looking forward his next visit!”
“We had a great experience with Julia! She was professional, communicative, and clearly cared for my dog like her own. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. My pup came back happy and relaxed. Would definitely book again and highly recommend! 🐾”
“Justin did a great job watching my dog. She's older and gets some seperation anxiety but Justin managed it all perfectly. She enjoyed walks and couch naps and Justin periodically sent picture updates. He was flexible with drop off and pick up. I'd definitely work with him again in the future and recommend him to others.”
“Sara was perfect. I booked her last minute for the first time and she did an amazing job caring for my dogs, one of which is a senior dog that needs special care. I was very anxious to leave her but Sara was very reassuring and communicated very well. She didn’t miss a beat giving my dog her medications and sent plenty of updates. When I picked my dogs up, I could just tell they were comfortable and had a great stay. Absolutely plan to use Sara again.”
About: I love animals! All of them! I have had pets my whole life. I was the kid that always brought home strays and I never grew out of it. I am also a volunteer, foster parent, and rescuer for several organizations around the area. I have been lucky enough to find a very patient Fiance Chad who has taken to the role of dog dad very well! We currently do not have any permanent residents as we sadly lost all 3 of our seniors in the last few months, but we frequently have a house full of fosters, and clients. We are very patient and caring and are comfortable with all sorts. We have taken on several special needs foster dogs throughout the years. We have experience with puppies, kittens, the very big and the very small. We have a ranch house on a quiet cul-de-sac with a dog door that accesses a good size fully fenced in back yard for the dogs to run or sun. We believe that pets know pet people so let's set up a meet and greet to see if your pets will pick our house to come hang out!! I work for a veterinary practice so I am around animals all day everyday! There is no part of my life that does not have animals in it. The dogs have free range of the main living area of the home including the couches. They can also access the fully fenced back yard via the dog door. The little ones however are not allowed out unattended because we do get a lot of wildlife.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in McKeesport is $47

I have never left my dog with a sitter before unless it was family. I was nervous until I met Gary. We had a meet and greet to make sure my pup was comfortable there and when I did go out of town Gary sent me pics and updates daily. I have now used his services twice and won’t be taking Aries elsewhere as long as Gary is available!
Had a wonderful experience! My dog was well cared for from the moment he arrived. I received daily updates with photos, which gave me great peace of mind while away. He got plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and she made sure he was eating and adjusting comfortably to his new surroundings. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup and would absolutely book with Sandra again. Highly recommend!
As much as I would like to keep Janet a secret, I can't. Your pet also deserves to be pampered by Janet and you deserve a peace of mind I had the entire 5 days I was out of town. Even a neurotic dog mom like me felt reassured, when I saw the immediate rapport Janet established with Boris. You can tell right away that Janet genuinely loves animals and is a caring and empathetic person. Her home is serene and surrounded by greenery. It's leaving your fur baby at a nature camp. Boris can't wait until Janet has an opening in her schedule.
Justin did a great job watching my dog. She's older and gets some seperation anxiety but Justin managed it all perfectly. She enjoyed walks and couch naps and Justin periodically sent picture updates. He was flexible with drop off and pick up. I'd definitely work with him again in the future and recommend him to others.
Ashley was phenomenal! Milo hasn’t been boarded for nearly 2 years so this was somewhat of a new experience for him. He was quite reserved and shy but Ashley welcomed him and gave him constant attention to ensure that he felt comfortable and safe. She gave Milo lots of love and he soon warmed up to the experience. Thank you again Ashley for everything!!
Michelle and her other half watched Ducky for us and gave her a vacation during our time apart. She was loved on a lot. If you are trying to decide to book Michelle or not I am not an internet or reviewer type and I'm leaving this review to say this person truly does a wonderful job taking care of your pet while you are away.
Augusta watches our dog all the time!!!! She and her family is so welcoming and caring. They are apart of our family now. I wouldn’t trust any one else with our dog. Sometimes we need her last minute and she always helps us out. Very reliable and loving. Highly recommend!!! No other sitter is like her. Seriously I would book with her. You would no be disappointed. Thank you so very much!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 880 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across McKeesport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
87% of McKeesport sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which McKeesport landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their McKeesport 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 McKeesport.
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 McKeesport 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.
