“Jason and Brit are so sweet. They treated my Cayenne like their own. And they really seem to know all the personalities of the dogs they care for. Can’t say enough good things about them. We will use them again for sure!”
About: Hi! I'm a dedicated dog lover who works from home, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor playtime and three friendly dogs who love meeting new friends. I understand that every dog is different, so I do my best to follow your pet's routine-whether that is walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or just relaxing in a calm environment. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, happy, and right at home while you are away. My Home and Family: - Fully fenced yard for safe play and exercise - Three friendly, social dogs (Frankie (f), Jack (m), and Lulu (f)) -Husband works outside the home during the week but is home on the weekends - My 11-year-old step-twins are here every other weekend and very comfortable and respectful around dogs (they have a red lab at their other home) - Calm, pet-friendly environment -I will typically only take one family at a time for boarding unless discussed and agreed upon by all parties Services I Offer: - Boarding in my home -Drop-in visits in your home -Feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention What You Can Expect: -Consistent supervision since I work from home -Regular photos and video updates (If you wish) -Reliable communication and quick responses -A safe, loving, and structured environment Experience and Comfort Level: -Comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments -Experience with multi-dog households -Able to follow detailed instructions and routines Meet and Greet I'm happy to set up a meet-and-greet to make sure it's the perfect fit for you and your pup! Since I work from home when your dogs stay with me, they'll enjoy a structured yet flexible day tailored to their needs and energy levels. Regular photos and updates so you can see how your pup is doing. I'm happy to adjust my schedule to match your dog's usual routine as closely as possible! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, supervised, and welcoming environment so you can feel confident while you are away. I work from home so your dog will rarely (if at all) be left alone I closely monitor all interactions between dogs to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe. I have three friendly, well-socialized dogs. I take time to properly introduce dogs to make sure it's a good fit. I can separate dogs if needed for their safety, rest, or feeding. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress environment where your dog feels at home and you feel completely at ease.
“This was my first time ever leaving my 7 month old puppy so I was a little nervous and not sure what to expect. Joanne put my mind at ease from the beginning and was WONDERFUL! Willow was happy and well taken care of while I was away. I even received daily updates with pictures which I looked forward to receiving. I highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. THANK YOU Joanne for taking such good care of my Willow!”
“This is the second time we have trusted Emily with our dog Jenny and it was just as great as the last time! Emily made sure that Jenny was comfortable and helped ensured that she adjusted well. We also received many pics of her while we were away which was an extra peace of mind. She’s the best!”
“Ceinwen is absolutely fantastic. She and her lovely two daughters have gone above and beyond to ensure that my fur kids are safe and well cared for when I travel. I can’t give enough stars!!!”
“This was the first time I left my four month old puppy with anyone. Anacelia and her family were great and my puppy had a great time. I will be using her again for sure”
“Harper's 11 night stay with Carole was excellent. He had a great time and made new friends. This was our first time using Carole and it will not be our last. I feel confident in leaving him with Carole and know that he will be well cared for. Thank you so much, Carole, for taking such good care of my baby!”
“Wonderful personality, caring and attentive. Awesome daily follow up and pictures put you at your ease. Prompt responses and responsible. Has young assistant always eager to lend a hand. Will use her services again. Thank you so much.”
“We could not have been happier with the care our miniature poodle received while staying with Sharon for one week. She was an outstanding caregiver for our dog while accommodating our needs, and made the entire process stress-free. Sharon is an exceptional communicator. She gave us daily updates with messages, photos and videos so that we always knew how our dog was doing and within the first day or two we could see he was content and happy. She was astute in reading the nuances of our dog's behavior around food, treats, medication, and playing, and adjusted her responses accordingly. It was evident she treated our pet like part of her family - her nurturing, patient nature and genuine love for animals really showed. Even her family got involved, and it was comforting to know our dog was pampered by everyone. We returned home after our vacation to a happy and relaxed dog who had clearly received excellent care. We recommend Sharon without reservation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring and reliable caregiver for their dog.”
“Purvi was so great and very attentive to my 5 month old pup! He spent 2 nights with her and was very well taken care of. Great communication during his stay helped our peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend! Thank you Purvi :)”
“Mariia was amazing! She became best friends with our cat, taking care of her for 2 whole weeks while we were abroad. She communicated with us well and was flexible with our schedule!”
“Heather had her hands full with my 7 month old lab/husky puppy. She accepted the challenge and took great care of Meadow. I appreciated the updates and pictures. Would highly recommend Heather as a pet sitter.”
“Audrey and her family took such great care of our Hazel. We knew she was safe and well cared for and we received updates throughout her stay. We know she had a great time and though we missed her, makes all the difference knowing that she had the best care when we were away.”
“Marla watched my dog for a week in August 2019. She was very quick to respond to any questions or concerns. My dog was very happy at her home and extremely well taken care of. She is a great pet sitter. Thank you, Marla. Will definitely use her again.”

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!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,920 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 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 Ottsville 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 Ottsville 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 Ottsville 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 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 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.
