âCan not say enough great things about our experience. Glenn was absolutely great with communication and you can clearly tell he knows how important our pets are to us. I will always check for his services first for anything my Maxie will need. Maxie stayed with him for a week and frankly, I think sheâs disappointed to come home!â


âWe couldn't have been more blessed to find a loving person to watch over our baby. He is spoiled at home by his mommy, so he doesn't like to be left out of our daily routine. Allie communicated with us on a daily basis so we could enjoy our time with our daughter's family. We had never left our baby with a sitter, so it was emotionally hard for us, but after seeing many photos of our son being loved by Allie and her daughter, we will definitely use her services again. We highly recommend her as a top choice to watch your pet; she's an angel.â

âAnna is fabulous. My guy is a little stand offish with me people yet Anna won him over in no time at all. Provided cuddles, lots of play time and he even made some new friends. I cannot recommend Anna highly enough!â


âVery caring and very professional. I knew when I met her that my dog was in good hands. Heâs never been away overnight with someone else. He handled it well because itâs obvious she loves animals and knows how to take care of them. Highly recommend.â

âLennox always seems happy after his stays with Carissa and Judge and leaps out of the car as soon as we get to her house to see her and his best buddy! Itâs comforting to know that he looks forward to the stays and feels comfortable going there - one less thing to worry about while travelingâŚ..â

âJennifer is such a kind, responsible, and loving pet sitter! Our pup, Arlo, loved every second he spent with her and her wonderful dog, Myrtle. Jennifer was able to take Arlo on last minute request. She met him prior to his stay to ensure he would settle in comfortably. She shared daily photos and updates, for which we were so appreciative while away! Jennifer took Arlo in the car, on hikes, and treated him as her own. We could not have asked for better care.â

I I am also an advocate for all animals and would treat your pet as I would my own. Also I am experienced in medication administration and first aid. Iâm available mostly during the week in the morning and some afternoons. Weekends may vary. Your pet will enjoy long walks and playing in the park as well as playing fetch. I am very active and will be able to keep up with your pet!
âIf you want your pet to feel loved and safe, please book with Lynn. She was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my naturally anxious dog. Haven had an absolute blast! Lynn and her family are kind and caring, and I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for pet care.â

About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own that I care for daily. I also care for my friends pets often and am excited to meet your pets and provide them the best care that they deserve. I am available all day on weekends and in the evenings every day. Some week days I am available more often. I am also available for overnights stays. I have a fenced in yard so would be able to have your pets in my home with no concern of them running off or anything like that. If I am caring for your pets in your home I will treat your home like my own, providing the best care.
âI couldnât be happier with the care Jordyn P. gave my dog, Loki, while I was away for four days. She is the true definition of a dog lover! From the moment Loki arrived, she made sure he felt comfortable and loved. She gave him plenty of playtime, lots of one-on-one attention, and treated him like part of her family. It was exactly the home-like environment I was hoping for. Jordyn was also excellent at communicating. She kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. The best part was seeing Loki come home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. That told me everything I needed to knowâhe was comfortable, felt at home, and was genuinely loved during his stay. I highly recommend Jordyn P. to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. Loki and I will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Jordyn, for taking such wonderful care of my boy!â

About: Iâve grown up with dogs my entire life and have plenty of experience dog sitting for others. I currently work in the vet corps, so caring for dogs is nothing new. Being around dogs isnât just familiar to me itâs something I genuinely love. I work full-time, but Iâm available most afternoons after I get off between 12â2 PM. Thursdays are my longer work days, but Iâm fully open on weekends. This schedule gives me plenty of time to provide reliable, attentive care. I have a spacious yard, though it isnât fenced in. However, my community has a great dog park where I can take your pup to play. I also have a friendly dog of my own who loves meeting new friends and gets along well with other dogs. Iâm very attentive and always follow any rules or routines you set for your pet.
âMookie was very happy when we picked him up after three months. Everything was good and Owen and Emily were fantastic. The pics and updates throughout were appreciated!!â

âJennifer 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 Maisyâs 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!!â

âOur 9 year old golden had a great time with Julie, Arlo, and family. Received updates with pictures regularly during her stay. Upon pick up, Shelby, was happy and didnât want to leave. Confirmation that Julie will be our go to if available for booking.â

About: Iâve always loved animals and enjoy spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Iâm happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping them company while youâre away. Iâll treat your pets like my own! I have flexibility in my schedule and can work with you to figure out what works best for your pet. Iâm happy to discuss days and times ahead of time and make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need while youâre away. Your petâs safety and comfort are really important to me. Iâll follow your instructions, keep their routine in mind, and make sure they have everything they need. Iâll also keep you updated and let you know how things are going so you can feel comfortable while youâre away.

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 dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Old Forge can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Old Forge 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 Old Forge.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs 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 Old Forge. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Old Forge sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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. Youâll 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.
