“Kim is awesome with dogs and was amazing with my 9 year old girl Kayli! I never felt comfortable leaving Kayli but I know my she felt right at home with the pictures and video updates I got on a daily basis. I would recommend her 100% and look forward to boarding with her again in the future. If you’re looking for a boarder who really cares for the well-being and comfort of your dog she is the one!”

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life! Growing up, I had a Greyhound, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also spent years pet sitting for friends and family, caring for both small and large dogs. We currently have a dog of our own, a loving mix breed we rescued in 2021. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. Im a full time work from home mom with a flexible schedule. I am available primarily Monday through Friday but can also open my availability throughout the weekends if needed. We have a small not fenced in backyard. Our loving 5 year old mix breed pup loves walks and is always happy for extra company on our daily trips around the neighborhood. All animals are treated like family and are given limitless love. I have a 2 year old who loves all the puppy cuddles but understands boundaries.
“Anita and Jim took great care of my girl Loretta. I could tell from the pictures Anita sent that she was happy and got regular activity. I've already booked her next stay at their house!”
“It was an absolute pleasure leaving our fur baby, Ace, with Johanny and her wonderful family. This was our first time being away from Ace, and naturally, we were a bit anxious—but Johanny made the entire process so easy and stress-free. She kept us updated throughout our vacation with multiple pictures and videos, which truly helped put our minds at ease. We’re incredibly grateful to have found someone Ace is so comfortable with, and we can’t wait to use Johanny’s services again!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog, Jenga, with anyone other than family. I was very nervous, but Katie did everything to make me feel comfortable leaving my baby girl with her! We did a meet and greet before I left to make sure our dogs got along and sent me multiple pictures throughout me trip and updates on what they did that day! They played, did brain puzzles, ran around in the fenced in yard, and snuggled a lot!! Katie also is familiar with dogs who need medication and was able to give Jenga her medicine each morning! I have nothing but great things to say about her and my experience!!”
“What a great experience with my first time using a dog sitter for my very laid back dog, Lucy! The family listened and understood exactly what Lucy needed to have a great time! She absolutely loved this family, & so did I. They made me feel comfortable and relaxed about leaving her in their care! We have already scheduled the next visit!”
“We are so thrilled with Emily! With how nervous our dog is, he warmed up immediately to her and even started to come out of his shell so soon. Emily is very thoughtful and courteous with how much she updates us. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Amanda and her family were wonderful caretakers of my fur baby. Simba had a great time!! Amanda sent pictures and videos and stayed in touch the entire stay!! Simba came home looking like a brand new pup😃 because Amanda also has great grooming skills!! I would definitely leave Simba there again if I need someone to care for him!!”
“Lauren and family took great care of my little girl. She is a rambunctious German shepherd and they took to her well. Sent me updates/pics, and were very responsive when I sent a message. Would absolutely repeat.”
“Theresa took great care of my two dogs. She sent thoughtful and caring updates throughout their nearly two week stay and was clear in communicating any questions or concerns that came up. My dogs were very happy with their stay and my family was able to enjoy our trip knowing they were in good hands.”
About: I can help you with housesitter at day or overnight and give the 100% attention to your pet. If you will be on vacation and you give me the facilities at your place (nothing fancy) I guaranteed that your pet will be on vacation too!! This will be my other part time job during the week, right now I am busy with a weekend job. However I know taking care of your beloved pet is a full time responsibility, and I will make sure they get fully taken care of when I'm with them or walking them. I spoiled them if I'm allow to. I enjoy to have them on couch and bed and play all time, go out to park, take them outside. Give lot of kisses and hugs. But of course I respect your rules and I will keep the your pets routine too. And about trust, I consider myself as the most honest and trustful person that you could know. I worked on houses (sitter/laundry attendant) and hotels (receptionist/night auditor) and I never grab something that is not mine.
“Stefanie is super nice, has the perfect set-up for dogs and great with communication. We received daily updates and photos. We would definitely recommend her services if you have dogs that need love & attention while you're away.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ottsville
Barbara was wonderful! It was immediately obvious that she genuinely enjoys caring for dogs. She was very detailed in her engagement, both in person and over the app. All around a very good person. Unfortunately I did not get the opportunity to meet James. Next time hopefully.
Marie took great care of our dog, Zeppelin, during his stay. She was communicative, kind, and kept me updated throughout the day. She acted quickly and responsibly when an unexpected scuffle happened, taking him straight to the emergency vet and keeping me informed the entire time. I really appreciated her honesty and attentiveness. Zeppelin came home in good spirits and well cared for. Thank you, Marie! Will book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ottsville is $46 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $65 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,009 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ottsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Ottsville 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 Ottsville home-away-from-home, 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 Ottsville.
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 Ottsville 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 , 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 .
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.
