“Jessica is excellent. Kept us informed throughout the whole time. She sent us picks and walked China with her dogs. China seemed very happy near her and her dogs. If I visit PA again and need a pet sitter/boarding, I will def. Will look for her services.”
“Gwen and family took such good care of Spencer. I love how happy he seemed when I picked him up. It’s clearly a safe and fun place for him to be. Thank you so much!”
“Alexandra was great and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her for a long weekend. She has a beautiful property where she took our dog out for daily hikes. Great communication throughout her visit and we received regular photos. Highly recommend!”
“We asked Michael for a HUGE favor of taking our dog for our wedding weekend and bringing him to our ceremony so that he could walk down the aisle. Not only did they do this for us, Michael and his family took incredible care of Dublin throughout the weekend and sent us the most adorable photos and messages so that we did not have to worry about a thing. They are the most ideal sitters a person could ask for - thank you so so much!!!”
“Glenn was a great dog sitter for Gaia. He was communicative and sent photos during her stay. Gaia seemed to have a great time and I would definitely use Glenn's services again in the future!”
“This was our first boarding experience with our one year old pup Scarlett, and it went very well. While it was hard to leave our girl for a week, we knew she would be in good hands. We did a meet and greet a couple weeks earlier, and she took to Karen and Donald immediately. They were kind and professional. They have a good set up for dogs and very dedicated to their care. We brought Scarlett's crate, food, toys, and snacks- a lot of stuff, but she had her familiar comforts. She got to play in the yard frequently, befriend another pup, and have lots of cuddle time and treats. Karen and Donald were great about sending updates, and it comforted me to know Scarlett was having a good time. We would be a repeat customer for future trips. While they have their purpose, I was so happy she didn't have to go to a kennel and got to be with very nice people.”
“I was in a last minute crunch and took a chance with Marleny. She was able to take my Sophie at a moments notice, sent photos daily, and took good care of my baby. I’ll definitely use her again!”
“Anna was the best! In the few moments I got to meet her I could tell right away she's a very empathetic, kind and caring person. She is passionate about animals and is great at understanding their behavior and adapting to it. She has her own dogs which are very well taken care of and better trained than my Bara, mine is an only-puppy so it helped with socializing her! She gave me daily updates with very detailed info on my puppy's day and tons of photos and videos. She played with her, gave her tons of treats, took her out on walks and even had movie night with her! I didn't have to worry at all. She completely won my Bara's heart.”
“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!”
“Our 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 didn’t want to leave. Confirmation that Julie will be our go to if available for booking.”
“Our 8-1/2 year old beagle is very attached to us, and we have never left him in anyone's care for a stretch of 3 weeks. So we were a bit nervous about booking services with ANYONE. We booked with Sarah based on the positive reviews for her that we read, and are so happy that we did! From our first meeting, our beagle boy was very comfortable with her. It was also comforting for us to know how much broad experience Sarah has had with pet care. We received consistent updates and pictures of him while we were away, and could see that he was happy to be in her care. Sarah tended to our precious boy as though he was one of her own pets, and he was healthy and happy when we came to take him home. We were more than satisfied with the care she provided, will use her again with no hesitation, and highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Adam did a great job boarding and caring for our 80lb higher energy labrador. Very communicative and sent pictures. We also requested Adam apply an allergy meds which he was great at. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Adam!”
About: Hi! I'm Agatha, an animal lover eager to meet new pets:) | grew up around animals my entire life (birds, fish, cats, dogs). As an animal caretaker of many years, l've learned how to instill routine into pets' lives. Pet’s needs always come before my own, and your furry friend will be treated like they are part of the family! I make sure they get enough play time, training, and LOVE. We truly have so much more to learn from animals than they have to learn from us. I’m currently doing freelance work from home so no meetings or anything, your pet will have my full attention ! At most I will be gone for an hour a day to make some food. I live in my family home with 5 huskies who have their own fenced off area in the front side of the house. In the back of the house there's acres of land for your dog to exercise (also fenced off) and have fun. If you need boarding but your dog does not get along with others, l can still provide that as we have a large RV and a little air bnb cabin where I can stay with your pup or cat :)
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was little, starting with Champ, the family golden retriever. As I got older, I adopted my own dog during my time in law school, Sasha (see profile photo), who is a Shepherd-Pyrenees mix. After Sasha, along came Sadie the Great Pyrenees. Needless to say, I have a lot of hands-on experience with larger breeds and know how to handle them on walks. I've also cared for the dogs of many people in my life - my wife's Golden Doodle, my best friend's Golden Doodle, and even my old boss's Beagle (just to name a few). Additionally, I spent a semester in college volunteering at an animal shelter where I was tasked with walking the largest dogs they had. Friends and family call me the "dog-whisperer" because I always find a way to make friends with every dog I come across. I work full-time but get to work from home three (3) days per week - always on Friday and most Mondays, with the third day varying by week. I'm also free on the weekends! I treat my dogs like human family members (sometimes even better) and will treat yours the same way! I will go the extra mile to make sure your dog is well-cared for.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Pocono Summit is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pocono Summit
Jessica was so amazing with Kaia! Before her stay, we did a meet and greet so Kaia could get acquainted with Jessica and her dogs. Kaia is timid at first with new people and new dogs, so I really appreciated being able to do that beforehand. She ended up warming up to Jessica and her dogs really quickly. When I dropped Kaia off for her overnight stay, Jessica treated her like she was her own dog. She followed Kaia's typical daily schedule, took her on walks, let her play with her dogs, and took such great care of her the entire time. This was Kaia's first night away from home, so it was really important to me that she was comfortable, and she absolutely was! Jessica sent photos and updates in the morning and evening, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was nice seeing Kaia doing so well, playing with Jessica's dogs, and looking so happy. When I picked Kaia up, I could tell she had a great time. Jessica really cares for the dogs she watches and treats them as if they were her own. I'll definitely be using Jessica again the next time I need someone to care for Kaia, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their dog as if they were their own.

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.
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 Pocono Summit 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 Pocono Summit 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 Pocono Summit.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pocono Summit. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Pocono Summit 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll 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.
