“Kathleen is wonderful! She took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. She sent me updates and pictures every day, and I felt that Kathleen treated our dog like part of her family. We will definitely will hire her again!”
“Michael and Loraine took great care of Jax, our Bichpoo. You can tell they have had dogs and are true dog lovers. Jax took to them right away, thanks to their loving manner and welcoming warmth. We’re already booked for our next trip!”
“CiCi loved her time with Ryan! Ryan was able to celebrate CiCi’s favorite day w/her…Pizza Crust Friday! Ryan is very flexible with drop-off/pick-up times and was even able to feed CiCi her last breakfast when I mistakenly fell short of CiCi’s packed food supply. Thank you Ryan for providing a backup food plan!”
“Zoey was an excellent caregiver to our shy dog! It was our first time boarding her and we were so happy with the experience! She provided updates and pictures and we were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries! We highly recommend her! We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Super kind and friendly. Made sure to keep me constantly updated on how my dog was doing, took him for walks and took excellent care of him. Sadly I think he was more upset for me to pick him up than he was when I dropped him off”
“Mikaila was a great dog sitter for our Riley! She was very communicative with messages and picture updates and provided a loving environment for Riley while we were traveling. We felt very comfortable and knew our dog was in great hands! Would definitely recommend!!”
“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.”
“Dana took great care of our dog, Max, during his first overnight stay. She sent photos and kept us updated on how Max was doing. We have already booked Max for a week stay at Dana’s while we are on vacation.”
“Katie was so wonderful in caring for my persnickety dog. She sent me communications with plenty of pictures several times per day as I mentioned I was anxious to leave him. She also let him have a better vacation than his mama! He had lavish pet beds and fluffy blankets to lay in, went for walks and got to make new doggy friends! His favorite thing ON EARTH is sunshine and laying out and Katie was able to provide that for him. I couldn’t be more pleased with Katie’s pet sitting and ease to work with (frequent communication and pictures, quick responses and ease in dropping him off and picking him up). 10/10 would absolutely book again!”
About: As dog parents with experience in fostering, we know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. We’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routine, and favorite things so they feel comfortable while you’re away. We understand that every dog is different, some love playtime and long walks, while others prefer a slower pace and extra cuddles. We will follow your care instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel connected and confident that your dog is being cared for. I work a very flexible hybrid schedule, and my husband works fully remotely, so someone is always home throughout the day. Caring for our own dogs is already part of our daily routine, and we work together to provide potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. We believe walks and enrichment are important parts of keeping dogs happy and fulfilled. We make time for walks that let dogs set the pace and enjoy plenty of sniffing, along with enrichment activities tailored to their interests and energy levels. We also enjoy visiting local parks and fields for more exploring. At home, we have a tether anchored in the backyard for supervised outdoor time, and we will always follow your dog’s comfort level and preferences when/if you prefer for it to be used. Before booking, we’ll discuss your pet’s needs and usual routine to make sure our schedule and activities are a good fit. Whether your pet stays in our home or I visit them in yours, their safety and comfort are always a priority. Before booking, we’ll discuss their personality, routines, and any special needs so we can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. For stays in our home, we’ll arrange a meet-and-greet to see how your dog gets along with ours and make sure everyone is a good fit. We’ll discuss feeding arrangements, supervision, and any boundaries your dog needs, including having their own space to relax. Outdoor tether time is always supervised and only offered with your approval. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, and home security. We’ll also go over any triggers, escape tendencies, or other concerns so I know what to watch for. You’ll receive photos and updates, and your pet will get plenty of attention, patience, and care.
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.
“Samantha was great! Very knowledgeable about dogs. She sent me a picture of her daughter reading Milo a book. Adorable! She kept me updated about Milo and informed me of a health condition with Milo. Very much appreciated!”
“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!!!”
“Jacqueline and Jim treated my pup and loved her like their own! As it was my 60-lb Golden Retriever’s first time at a house with a cat, I set up a meet and greet and I could tell my dog felt right at home. Jacqueline was super communicative and warm prior to and during the boarding process. I could tell by the photos that my dog was comfortable and I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come back with me! I cannot recommend Jacqueline enough and will definitely board my dog at her place again.”
“Absolutely WONDERFUL. I literally have no words to describe how amazing Traci and Jeffery’s care was for Apollo. They are so sweet and kind and treated my dog as their own. They kept me updated on his activities and behaviors. They were so incredibly accompanying to his medical needs. They are such lovely people to talk with as well. They are very communicative and on top of the job. If you need care for your dog. Hire Traci and Jeffery!”
“Lee was so awesome ? There was a welcome sign for Bella Grace, too cute. She sent photos throughout Bella’s stay. She kept us informed how Bella was doing during the day and evening. I would most definitely recommend Lee to care for your fur baby. Thank you for taking care of our little stinker, Bella Grace.”
“Leaving our 9-month-old Golden Retriever for the first time was nerve-wracking—especially when our original sitter canceled right before a 5-day trip. Kiara was our lifesaver. She went above and beyond to put us at ease, meeting us at a park beforehand on the same day of our drop off so we could introduce him gently. From the moment we dropped him off, she showered him with care, sending regular updates and videos that showed just how happy and comfortable he was. She was also flexible when our flight was delayed on our way home. We couldn’t recommend her more—she’s now our go-to sitter, and we’ll never worry about leaving our pup in her hands.”

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.
