“Melinda was great with my 2yr old mini poodle Peaches! She was caring and attentive and my son and Peaches loved her sweet dogs River and Winter too! Highly recommend her sitting services and will book Peaches a stay again with her, she loved it!”
“I found a great family to watch my dogs over the weekend! Melissa, Angel and their 2 boys made my pups feel right at home! They sent photos and a video each day of the dogs sleeping, playing, watching TV on the couch with family. Mellisa and Angel are my new go to people with Rover.”
“Laura and her family were absolutely amazing to my coco. I went out of state on vacation and often missed coco, but could always go back to the pictures and updates we’d receive throughout the trip. We did a meet and greet before hand and Laura’s dog Harley was very friendly and excited to see both of us. Laura and her family are the best and I’m happy we were able to find them.”
“We boarded our 60lb Golden Doodle with Kathy for 7 nights. She was very well looked after, happy and healthy when we returned. kathy is great to work with and sent updates and was very careful to ask questions and follow suggestions of our dogs care. She's also a lovely lady and good communicator”
“Johanny and her family did a great job caring for my fur baby! Johanny was super flexible; she kept in touch with me and sent me pictures/videos. I’d recommend and would love to have Tucker back in Johanny’s care again!”
“Gwen took very good care for my little guy (Noel) as he had surgery days prior to his stay. Gwen made sure he took his medicine on time and sent me photos throughout his stay. He’ll look forward staying again next time we’re around. Thank you :)”
“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.”
“David R loves my baby Luther and they had an absolute ball hanging out together. David goes above and beyond making your pet feel loved and well cared for. Plus he takes really nice pictures of your dog and keeps in contact regularly so you won’t worry about a thing. Highly recommend.”
“Emanuel was very easy to work with and available to care for my senior dog and provide medication as needed as a last-minute need.. We did a trial run overnight prior and everything went well..”
“Absolutely wonderful taking care of Jasper. He had a great time there. Avary does a great job of keeping in touch and sending pictures. Jasper came back tired, so I know he was having a lot of fun. I will not hesitate to have Avary watch him anytime we go on trips.”
“Megan was such a joy to work with. She took excellent care of Luna, provided plenty of pictures, and insight into how the week was going. We could tell how much fun Luna was having and knew she was in great hands. It’s clear that Megan truly has a love of dogs and we were so thankful to have found her. We will certainly be reaching out to Megan again in the future!”
“Tiffany was great! She had a huge backyard my doggo could run all around in. She sent lots of pictures of my dog and they clearly showed my dog enjoying herself. She was very communicative and quick to respond. Would highly recommend her and hope to book with her in the future!”
“I can't say enough about Scott! Not only were my dogs well taken care of and happy, but Scott sent us pictures and reports daily so we could keep up on their activities. We wouldn't hesitate to schedule with Scott again. I know our dogs would love to stay with him again.”
“Emily was great again watching Spike. Kept me updated on Spike’s status regularly. I had peace of mind always knowing Spike is in good hands and getting great care.”
“I had a wonderful experience. Kadie took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos. She was incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, attentive dog sitter! Thank you so much for loving my dog as if he was yours! 😊”
“So grateful for Brooke and Jeremy looking after Luca.😃I appreciate their attention to detail and giving me lots of feedback throughout his stay with them. I have already rebooked!”
“I can’t thank Michael enough for the amazing care he and his family gave to my fur baby Snuggs. She’s truly my everything, and leaving her is never easy—but I had complete peace of mind knowing she was with someone who treated her like family. And the pictures and updates were so comforting. Michael went above and beyond to keep her happy, comfortable, and loved. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable person to care for their pet. Thank you again from both Snuggs and I. You are a blessing”
About: I've owned three dogs in the past 20 years. A greyhound (rescue), a border collie/retriever mix (rescue) and a chihuahua. Each one unique in their personality, energy level and needs, giving me a broad understanding of dog care. I recently retired and can't think of a better way to spend some of my free time, than with pups. I'm available M-F, and we could probably negotiate some weekends if needed. I love taking dogs for walks. We frequently walked our dogs at Kolapechka park and utilized the dog play areas. I could do the same for yours. Open to broadening my services to include overnight stays in my home once a bond/trust is developed between myself and your pet.
“Highly, highly, highly recommend Joan! From the moment I dropped off my cat I was completely at ease because he immediately made himself comfortable, which he typically doesn’t do. Joan was great, and sent a lot of pictures and made me feel secured with leaving my baby with her! Thank you so much, Joan, and again I highly recommend booking with Joan!!”
“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.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Palmerton is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palmerton
If Rover allowed us to give 100 stars, we’d give every single one to Deanna. Wimble isn’t “just our dog.” He’s our family, our best friend, our service dog, and one of the stars of our Amazon Prime TV series The Ghost Finders. Because of that, trusting someone else with his care has never been something we take lightly. Then we found Deanna. From the moment she came into Wimble’s life, it was obvious she had a truly special gift. She has an incredible ability to connect with dogs in a way that’s difficult to describe. Wimble absolutely adores her, and seeing the excitement on his face whenever he sees her tells us everything we need to know. Deanna doesn’t just care for Wimble, she loves him. She has become his trainer, his handler on set, his biggest cheerleader, and someone we trust completely. Whether she’s working with him, taking him on adventures, or simply giving him affection and reassurance, she always treats him as if he were her own. As television producers, our schedules can be hectic and unpredictable, but we’ve never once worried when Wimble is with Deanna. That’s one of the greatest gifts anyone can give a pet owner: complete peace of mind. Her professionalism, reliability, patience, compassion, and genuine love for animals are second to none. She consistently goes above and beyond, and we honestly can’t imagine a better person to have in Wimble’s life. Deanna has become more than a Rover sitter to us. She’s become part of Team Wimble and part of our extended family. Thank you, Deanna, for loving our boy as fiercely as we do, for helping him grow, and for always treating him with such kindness and respect. We are more grateful than words can express. Anyone lucky enough to have Deanna care for their dog should consider themselves incredibly fortunate. She is simply the very best. ❤️🐾

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.
92% of sitters in Palmerton 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 Palmerton 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 Palmerton.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Palmerton 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.
