“We couldn't be happier with Mike and Perla’s care for our toy poodle Oscar, over the past four days. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that they genuinely love animals and takes this responsibilities seriously. Mike was incredibly attentive, sending us regular updates and adorable photos and videos of our little guy looking happy and relaxed. He followed all our instructions perfectly and even went above and beyond by giving extra cuddles and walks. Our little one came back calm, happy, and well-cared-for. We highly recommend Mike & Perla to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional sitter. Thank you, for your exceptional care and dedication — you’ve earned every one of these five stars! Chris & Derlim”
“Our dog Tucker is initially shy around new people and other dogs but Tiffany was able to really make him feel at home during his stay with her. Her enclosed backyard gave Tucker plenty of privacy to settle in and explore his new surroundings. She updated us with pictures and it was very clear early on that Tucker was settling in just fine with her other dog and family. We will definitely be using Tiffany again for our dog.”
“Madison was with Carole for a week and came home happy and tired! We had some travel delays and she was understanding about us arriving later than expected. I would recommend her as she shows she enjoys being with our fur babies.”
“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”
“If you are looking for an exceptional dog sitter I would 10/10 recommend Manny! I could definitely tell my dog was well looked after while I was away. The photo/video daily updates were wonderful and helped keep my mind at ease so I could fully enjoy my vacation. It’s hard to find a good, reliable dog sitter in this area and he’s the best one I’ve had so far. I will absolutely be using his services again for future boarding needs.”
“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”
“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”
“Johanny is an amazing sitter. I completely trust her with my dog. She make sure to send me updates with photos and videos regularly. She is always available via text.”
“Bella is usually stressed whenever she stays away from home but she was fine when home She is easy to care for because she spends most of her time resting in the warmest place she can find but I appreciate the extra care to get her to eat”
“As a first time Rover user, Missy provided such a wonderful experience start to finish. She arranged a meet a greet prior to booking which allowed us to see how our dog interacted with her and the environment, provided numerous daily updates and photos while we were away, and returned a happy pup to us at pickup. Will definitely use her again for future needs!”
“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.”
“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!”
“David is very awesome, had a great time with my dog and my dog had a great time with him, plus he is an amazing photographer. The pictures he took and sent to me from his stay are truly beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful memories.”
“As a professional dog trainer and longtime worker in the pet care industry, I'm very particular about where I take my dogs and how I like them to be cared for. Kim went above and beyond in her duties, and I greatly appreciated her diligence and care. She provided daily updates on their well being and social interactions, as well as photos and videos. It was comforting to see my pups playing, walking, resting and enjoying themselves while I was away for over a week. When I returned to pick them up, they were in great condition and happy to see me. When I got them home, they both promptly passed out from all the activity they had on their own vacation! As someone who has worked with dogs professionally for a number of years, I highly recommend Kim's services. She clearly cares about the animals in her care, as well as their owners!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mertztown
We cannot say enough about how happy we were with the care Taylor and Joseph provided for our little guy. Koda came home SO happy and exhausted from playing with their sweet and adorable pup, (his new best friend) Mac! We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing that Koda was in excellent hands. They made sure all of his needs were met, including that his medication was administered properly, plus they gave him plenty of love! We received several photos and updates on how he was doing. Their home is immaculate, the fenced in yard is perfect, and they are truly wonderful people. I highly recommend them!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Mertztown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 820 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mertztown. 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.
93% of Mertztown 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 Mertztown 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 Mertztown 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 Mertztown.
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 Mertztown 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.
