Lucas did a great job watching our two dogs while we were away. Communication was easy and everything went smoothly. We’d definitely trust him to watch them again and would recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter

About: Hi, my name is Inna and I’m a huge animal lover! I have many years of experience taking care of pets, both my own and for others. I currently have a sweet 5-year-old dog named Alberto and a friendly cat named Sam. They both get along well with other pets and love having new friends around. I am a very responsible and caring person. I know how important it is to give pets love, attention, and proper care when their owners are away. You can feel confident knowing your furry family member will be safe, happy, and well cared for in my home. I have a comfortable and pet-friendly home where your dog or cat will feel welcome. I will follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet like my own. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, walks, or feeding — I’ve got it covered! I look forward to meeting you and your pets I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule to care for your pets throughout the day. We also have a small yard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime. Your pet will never be left alone for long — they will always have company and attention Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I always make sure the environment is safe, clean, and comfortable. I carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding food, walks, medications, or special needs. I never leave pets unattended outside, and I make sure they always feel safe and loved. I treat every animal like part of my family

I cannot say enough about Vivian and her whole family! We were afraid that our dog would not want to come back home after staying with them. They treated our dog as if she was their own dog. Our dog does not warm up to people very well but had no trouble warming up to Vivian's whole family. I found Vivian by another person who had also used her and could not say enough about her. Our dog will never stay anywhere else!

I was traveling last minute for a friends birthday and Maureen quickly replied and set up a meet and greet for the next day. My puppy Bruno is very loveable and was excited to meet Maureen and her family. The meet & greet went well so we booked for him to stay the next day overnight. All went well with the drop off and pick up and Maureen sent me updates on Bruno throughout his overnight stay. I would rebook with her in the future.

Mary and her family took amazing care of our dog while we traveled. She updated us with photos and he couldn’t wait to get out of the car when I dropped him off. We absolutely recommend her for watching your fur babies!

About: I love walking, playing, & watching all sorts of dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs in the house since I was a little girl. Dogs are my best friends! I currently work as a nurse so my schedule moves around a bit. Typically I am only working about 3 days a week! Any of my 4 days off I can be available! My home is friendly & welcoming to all different dogs. I do have a fenced in yard, & a dog who gets along great with others!

We were so comfortable leaving Chimay with Erin. I hope Bob didn’t hover too much at drop off, he is less experienced at that and can get protective. We hope all went well while she was there, it looked like she fit in from the pictures.

About: Reliable boarding, house sitting and check-ins with lots of love and attention. Why pet parents love booking with me • Work from home—pets get lots of attention • Quick responses and easy communication • Daily photo & video updates • Reliable, dependable care • Comfortable with dogs and cats • Plenty of walks, playtime, and affection • I treat every pet like family Whether your pet is staying in my home or I'm caring for them in yours, my goal is simple: I want you to enjoy your trip knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. I've been around animals my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I work from home, pets in my care aren't left alone for long periods. They receive frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them), and lots of supervision throughout the day. When you're away, you'll receive regular photo and video updates, quick responses to messages, and the reassurance that your pet is being cared for like one of my own. I'm committed to keeping your pet's routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet! I only care for a limited number of pets at a time so each one receives plenty of individual attention. Please contact me for any questions or to set up a meet and greet! ❤️ Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your home depending on your pet’s needs. I also enjoy getting my steps in and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to while making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and supervised environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I do currently have two cats, so I ask that dogs staying with me are cat-friendly. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine, follow feeding/walking instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe pets should feel safe, loved, and treated like family in any environment. I have a pet-friendly backyard space for supervised outdoor time, walks, and play. Since the yard is not fenced in, safety and supervision are always a priority.

Emily and Patrick are absolutely incredible! They took such wonderful care of my girl Bunny. When my trip was unexpectedly extended due to a flight cancellation, they were so flexible and accommodating. Throughout the weekend they kept me updated with photos and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t be more grateful — thank you both so much!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have over 7 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve raised puppies, fostered dogs, and cared for friends’ and family’s pets. I really try to get to know each dog because every dog is different. One thing that sets me apart is that I don’t force dogs to interact just because it’s easier for me. I have two dogs of my own, but unless you specifically want your dog to meet them and we’ve had a successful meet-and-greet, they’ll stay separate. They can peacefully exist in the same home without having to play together. work Monday through Friday, but my job is pretty flexible as long as I have a few days’ notice (3 days is perfect!). That lets me plan ahead and make sure your pup gets the care and attention they deserve. Outside of work, I’m usually home with my dogs anyway. Whether your pup loves to play, go on walks, or just cuddle up and nap, I’ll make sure they feel right at home while they’re with me. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first with me. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised play and a home that’s set up with dogs in mind like a child’s daycare lol. Even though I have two dogs of my own, I don’t force dogs to interact just because they’re staying in the same house. Unless you specifically want introductions and we’ve had a successful meet & greet, they’ll have their own space and routine. Think of them more like roommates than playmates. I also have a dedicated dog room that’s set up like a cozy bedroom, not a kennel. It has a comfy bed, toys, fresh water, and a camera so I can always check in on your pup if they need a quiet place to relax. It’s especially great for senior dogs, anxious dogs, or any pup that just likes having their own space. If your dog is crate trained or happens to be an escape artist, I also have two extra large metal crates available when needed. I also keep my boarding limited so every dog gets the time, attention, and care they deserve instead of feeling like just another “booking”. I’ll always follow your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any instructions you leave because I know every dog is different.

Couldn’t recommend Breanna enough! She took such great care of my dog Rocky for a weekend! She sent the best update pictures, treated Rocky to pup cups, and made us feel so confident that he was being taken great care of! I didn’t know if Rocky would ever want to leave! Will definitely be using Breanna as a sitter again in the future!

Lindsay was so kind and caring - she went above and beyond to make our doggy Cricket feel safe and secure on the first night that she stayed with her. Lindsay kept us updated with texts, pictures, and a video. Cricket had so much fun at her house! And, Lindsay was able to accommodate our last minute boarding request. This was a wonderful experience for all of us!

Victoria watched Moose overnight (11 month old Labrador Retriever) as we attended a wedding out of town. Moose is a very sweet, big and ill -mannered boy. Victoria did a fabulous job with Moose, sent multiple updates throughout the evening and the next morning, and eased any concerns that we had about his big sleepover! Victoria is kind and warm, and a wonderful pet sitter. I picked up a happy boy who enjoyed his big adventure. I am grateful that we have found a high-quality and dependable sitter for Moose, and I highly recommend Victoria.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - New Kensington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in New Kensington on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 878 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in New Kensington. About 91% of New Kensington 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.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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.
