“Kathleen was great taking care of my Smokey. Especially when he was neutered a week prior and needed to wear this big cone around his neck. Smokey takes medication to control seizures and needs to be hand fed. Kathleen was sooo involved and gave Smokey her full attention. Thank you so much Kathleen.”
“Olive was such a great caregiver to our dog, Arlo. He was well cared for and we received pictures daily. Olive definitely knows her dogs and what each individual breed needs. Thanks for a great stay!”
“Shamira took good care of our girl, Rosie, while we were away. She sent lots of pictures and we could see our pup’s tail was high and happy. Rosie had been there before and was happy when she arrived for another stay. Shamira was very flexible and kind when our trip was extended because of travel delays.”
“Zoey was wonderful with our two dogs. She updated me with pics throughout the stay and gave adorable report cards when I picked up. I highly recommend her for watching your four legged kiddos!”
“Mikaila is amazing!! She is so professional and on top of everything. She sent timely updates and pictures while watching Bogey, and took thorough notes during our meet and greet to make sure she gave my dog the most personalized care she could. I have a rescue and he can be very timid, but he warmed up to her, and I've never seen him so excited about a dog sitter before. Highly recommend!”
“Lynda was awesome! Super communicative. Marvel seemed so comfortable which is huge for my anxious baby. Will be reaching out to Lynda for future dog-sitting needs for sure.”
“Jia was great with my dogs! She sent daily updates and took good care of Terry and Ella. Jia was kind enough to work with me on early drop off and the dogs felt right at at home at her place. I would definitely come back again.”
“Yuka is terrific! Koda had a great time staying with her and her boys. We felt so comfortable leaving her with them, knowing she was getting plenty of love, attention and care! We highly recommend Yuka and will reach out to her again in the future.”
“Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!”
About: Caring for dogs isn't just a service for me—it’s personal. From 10 years of age my family and I have cared for Beagles, Pointers and Brittany Spaniels. Most recently have spent over 12 years caring for a Golden Retriever. I specialize in providing the gentle, attentive care that older dogs need to feel safe and comfortable. I’m also experienced in working with puppies on routine and basic training. Whether your pet needs a slow-paced day with extra comfort or active puppy guidance, I treat every dog like my own with personalized attention and frequent updates. *Experienced with administering daily oral medications *Pet safety is paramount in my home or walks *Fenced yard for maximum peace of mind I retired from work 2 years ago. My routine revolves around spending plenty of time at home, which makes integrating pet care seamless and natural. Mornings begin with energetic outdoor time, feeding, and fresh water, followed by continuous monitoring and check-ins throughout the day. Because I am consistently present, I can closely follow your dog's exact routine—from midday walks and bathroom breaks to relaxing afternoons and structured evening routines. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. Whether I’m caring for a dog in my own home or visiting a client’s, safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-proofed, and secure environment free from hazards, toxic plants, or loose items. I closely monitor pets to ensure they are comfortable, safe, and never left unattended in unsecured areas. When visiting a client's home, I strictly follow your household rules, keep doors and gates secure, and ensure doors/windows are locked during visits. I am also extremely mindful of home security, mail collection, and keeping the space clean, so you come back to a happy pet and a secure home.
“They were absolutely great, definitely recommend! My dog Toby stayed with Jerrie and Xiao-Wei over the holidays and was clearly very happy there. Communication was great and Jerrie sent me pictures and updates throughout the stay. Toby didn't want to leave, we'll definitely be back!”
“Earlier this week, I found myself in the position of finding overnight care for my dog Cookie at the very last minute. I will never send him to a kennel since he does not do well with a lot of other dogs and I did not want him lost amidst a sea of yapping or feeling confined. I needed someone with a big, secure, natural back yard to enjoy when not on walks; someone with only one or two personal pets who would not take in others during Cookie’s stay; and someone active, engaged and loving with my special guy. I found that person in Christina. Christina is brand new to the platform, which I actually liked since I suspected she would go over and beyond what was required as she builds her reputation. Her narrative and the testimonials sounded authentic, and her photos showed obvious joy with dogs and cats. And she was available on short notice. I asked if we could do a live video “walk-around” her house, and mainly her yard, on WhatsApp, which I do not believe most people would have agreed to, but she did so readily. This is what I saw, heard and learned: 1) The yard is huge, secure, beautiful and interesting; 2) Her rapport with her own bichon was kind, gentle and fun (I learned she had three bichons for many years but two passed and I think Rover is partly to help fill that void); 3) She walks in Pennypack Park morning, noon and night so when Cookie was not enjoying the yard, he’d be enjoying new sights and sounds elsewhere with his new bichon buddy; 4) Cookie would not be caged ever, and no other dogs would be accepted for boarding while he was there. I had to change the drop off and pickup times at the last minute, which was not a problem at all. Drop-off was easy and communication consistent and remained on WhatsApp throughout the stay. I picked Cookie up a little while ago and I knew I had made the right choice for my guy. Cookie will be back at Christina’s without a question, though hopefully not at the last minute again. Five out of five!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of puppies, senior dogs and cats. Given medications when required. Long dog walks, trips to dog parks, belly rubs, games, pup cups, a fenced in yard with sprinklers and a puppy pool during hot weather. I use the WoofTrax app to document walks send photos to owners. The cats get play time and cuddles and ear scratches to make them purring. I have taken care of my own pets as well as pets from friends and family. I am currently semi-retired and working from home. I love taking care of pets and provide a warm, friendly environment. I have a fenced in yard, my dog loves playing with other animals. I can go to your home if you prefer and I’ll bring the toys and treats to keep your pet happy.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have had both dogs and cats throughout my life. I’ve always had a love for animals and I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets while you’re away. While stationed in Germany, I regularly cared for the pets of military spouses and families. This gave me experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages and personalities! I also have experience caring for pets with specific needs, including dogs and cats that require medication. I’m very comfortable following detailed instructions from owners and making sure medications, routines, feeding schedules, and other care needs are handled properly. Most importantly, I know every pet is different & I always take the time to make sure they’re comfortable, while also giving them the same love, attention, and dependable care I would want for my own pets. I’m happy to work with you to schedule visits, walks, or other care based on what works best for you and your pet! I know consistency is important, so I always do my best to keep schedules as familiar and comfortable as possible while your pet is in my care. I want every pet I care for to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like I would my own. I’m mindful about things like keeping doors secure, staying on top of feeding and medication schedules, and making sure they get plenty of attention. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates along the way so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Prospectville
I’m so happy we booked with Kathleen. Timber is a nervous dog when away from me and I feel confident that Kathleen could handle it and helped my pup to feel secure. She kept me up to date daily. I would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone who is going away and wants their pup to be treated with love and patience.
Wanda was awesome with my dogs, I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter! Church and Pepper were so well taken care of. Church has allergy/skin issues and needed medicine applied regularly, which Wanda was happy to help with. Both dogs came home happy and healthy and well loved. Thanks so much Wanda!
Katia took Bear in last minute and we are so grateful to her. She took such great care of Bear. She sent us photos and videos showing him playing, going on walks, cuddling and just having an awesome time! Thank you again for helping us in a pinch but moreover for treating Bear with such loving care!
Lauren watched my senior dog 5 nights while we were away on vacation. She did a great job with communication and I had no worries that my pup was in good hands. I have a feeling my pup enjoyed the attention from the other (human) family members as well, just like home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Prospectville 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 Prospectville.
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 Prospectville 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.
