“Mary is so great! She is friendly, communicative, thorough and does a wonderful job keeping in touch and sending pictures. She was able to accommodate our last minute reservation and was flexible with pick-up. I could tell my girls had a ton of fun at Mary's house and came home tired and happy. I would definitely recommend Mary and will be using her again in the future!”
“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”
“Gina and Brian (and their 4 legged child - Zoe) welcomed Boo into their home on short notice. This was our first time with a service like Rover, and we were apprehensive about leaving our fur baby with a private family. We could see that Boo was comfortable with Gina when we dropped her off, and Gina kept us informed all along the way with texts and pictures. None of the places that we have boarded Boo before have given her the attention and affection she received from Gina and Brian. There is no doubt that we will be using them again - as well as highly recommend them.”
“This was the first time Maggie stayed here and we were very happy with how things went and have booked another stay already. Thanks Maria for taking such good care of our baby!”
“We had great experience with Jena and Nick. Dexter received lots of love, personal attention, playtime, daily walks. Their pet Sebastian was a very nice dog and became great buddy of Dexter in a short time. They have a very nice and clean fenced backyard too. Dexter really enjoyed his time with Jena, Nick and Sebastian… We really appreciate their effort in making sure Dexter felt it at home…Thank you Jane, Nick and Sebastian for being so lovely to Dexter.”
“Stacey took great care of my dog! She watched her for a month while I had surgery. She sent pics and videos that helped to put my mind at ease knowing my dog was not only well cared for but happy, too! Highly recommend!”
“Christi was such a pleasure to work with and my dog was very well taken care of, and happy and healthy when we picked him up. He stayed active and Christi sent me lots of pictures of his adventures! Recommend and would definitely book again.”
“Michael was absolutely wonderful. He treated our dogs like family. They haven’t done well historically with being away from home but that definitely changed with Michael. They were much more relaxed and adjusted more quickly to the change. You can’t go wrong with trusting Michael to care for your fur kids. He’s the best!”
“Angeline and her husband are amazing people. So easy to deal with and they truly love your dog like their own. They take time for daily pics and updates and angeline responds nearly instantly to any rover message. Do not hesitate to trust this wonderful couple with your fur baby.”
“I highly recommend Brittany! She took great care of our one year Samoyed for a weekend away. He had a lot of fun playing with her two dogs, and returned home a very happy and tired dog. We were provided pictures and updates of our dog during his stay. Brittany is quick to respond to stay requests, and made drop-off and pick-up very easy.”
About: I have owned dogs and cats since 1985 and was on a K9 Search and Rescue team for 18+ years so I have worked with all types of dogs and have a lot of experience with training. I currently work outside the home M-F 9-5 but can work from home upon request. Weekends I am home the majority of the time and spend most of my time hanging out with my own dogs (two labs) I have hosted a variety of dogs in my home including corgis, labs, goldens, frenchies, pitties, mals, and other assorted breeds. I treat everyone's pets just like my own - lots of treats, snuggles, couch naps, and of course sleeping on the bed if they want. Both of my labs are extremely friendly and love pretty much all dogs, but I do have experience sitting some dogs who preferred to be separate from my boys via either baby gates or kennels (depending on what the dog is comfortable with). I have a large fenced in backyard and a smaller fenced in front yard. The backyard has a doggie door that allows the dogs to go in and out at will, although when I am not home, I do not give any dogs access to the yard (even my own dogs as a safety issue).
“This was the best pet sitting experience we could have hoped for! It is our first time using Rover and Laurie was an absolute delight. She treated Sadie as if she were her own and updated us daily with photos. We will 100% recommend and use her again ! 10/10!”
“Kash had a wonderful time staying with Briana, her family and his new friend Duke! Briana sent several pictures daily and kept up updated on his eating, playing and sleeping routine. We knew he was getting the love and attention as if he was home.”
“Rae and her family really worked hard to make my anxious Bichon, Hope feel at ease.. Hope came from neglect and abuse the first 5 months of her life before we adopted her. She gets anxious with anyone above her trying to pet her, but after a day, her anxieties were minimized and she felt more at home! I appreciate all your love and support with Hope!”
“Anthony was great! This was the first time boarding our dog and was a little nervous because he’s still a puppy but Anthony was patient with him and constantly gave me updates on how Bullet was doing. I felt very at ease leaving him there. I would highly recommend him and plan on using him again in the future!”
“Danielle was such a wonderful caregiver to our 2 dogs and gave us frequent updates on how they were doing. She sent videos of them playing and even took them around the area so they weren’t left alone long. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our furry children😊”
“Michelle and Sami were amazing!! They took great care of our very active Weimeraner puppy and it was obvious that he was showered with affection by their family. They're very experienced in training/caring for different breeds, and their Goldens were great pals to our dog. We are so grateful for their help and care!”
“Cheryl provided loving, thorough care to our spoiled 4 year old shishon! She sent pictures and videos and was very easy to coordinate with throughout the process. It definitely gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing he was in a safe, cuddly environment!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Portersville
We have a 16 year old dog has never been left with a stranger. We were nervous to leave him but Melli’s exceptional care quickly put us at ease. She asked great questions, took time to understand his unique needs, and gave him lots of personal attention. I appreciated her good communication before and during his stay. If we ever need to leave him again, we will certainly be sure to book Melli!

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.
91% of Portersville 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 Portersville 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 Portersville 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 Portersville.
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 Portersville 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.
