“My dog loves to stay at Danny's house. This has been such a help since my doggy day care closed. Keeps me informed and sends pictures. I'd recommend him as an excellent care giver.”
“Charlie is really good with my dog Bailey. He helped socialize her with the other dogs for me. She’s always happy to get there. She’s fed and well taken care of there.”
“Rob, Jeannie and Peanut are fantastic, they genuinely love dogs, they are extremely friendly and professional. I received lots of photos and videos of my dog boo , even got a personalized report card for boo at the end of his stay. Perfect 10/10 rating, they are one of the best sitters on this app, I am extremely lucky to have found them, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Thank you so much for taking care of boo and the extra warm/caring touch you provide, it means a lot knowing that boo will be taken care of like he is part of your family.”
“Cheryl made me feel at ease about leaving my very anxious baby. Her system to introducing the dogs really put my mind at ease, and she sent me pictures while we were out to let me know my pup was okay. I would recommend her. Thank you Cheryl!”
“Josie had another great day playing and exploring! I really love the setup here! The dogscaping is very nice and it gives her lots of stimulation we don’t have at home. I’m always happy to see her running around with the other dogs and can tell she is having so much fun. Sandra is so patient and always gives me helpful advice on how to take care of Josie. I really appreciate her feedback since Josie is my first puppy!”
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience working with dogs through both training and in-home boarding. My background as a professional dog trainer means I understand canine behavior on a deeper level, allowing me to provide structured, safe, and low-stress care for every dog in my home. I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs—from young puppies to more challenging cases—and prioritize clear communication, consistency, and meeting each dog where they’re at. Whether your dog needs structure, confidence building, or just a calm and reliable environment, I tailor my care to fit their individual needs. Dogs in my care are part of a structured, trainer-managed environment. During the day, they are integrated into my routine and pack, allowing for appropriate socialization and calm coexistence. With board & train dogs on-site, I maintain a high level of supervision and structure to ensure safety and balance for every dog. All dogs are crated at night to promote rest and maintain a secure environment. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. With over 5 years of professional dog training and boarding experience, I’m very intentional about how dogs are introduced, managed, and supervised in my home. Dogs are never left unsupervised together, and all interactions are based on temperament and comfort level. I have experience reading body language and preventing issues before they arise, creating a calm and controlled environment. At night, all dogs are safely crated to ensure proper rest and security. My goal is to provide a space where your dog feels safe, understood, and well cared for at all times.
“So happy we found Diana for our Jax!! He loves going over and playing! He knows when we get in the car every Friday where he is heading. Diana takes excellent care of our little one amd treats him like her own, even sends pictures and updates throughout the day! Highly recommend leaving your pet with her.”
“We were so lucky to have Ellen watch our dog, Ziva! She has separation anxiety, and we were nervous about leaving her with someone new in a new environment. Ellen was so reassuring from the start, promising to take good care of her. And she absolutely did. Her sweet dog, Cleopatra, was so friendly and helped Ziva feel comfortable right away. Our first impression was unforgettable- Ziva followed Ellen, which is rare for her with someone she doesn’t know. Ellen took extra care to comfort Ziva when she was anxious and sent us picture updates that really put our minds at ease. Because of Ellen, we were able to enjoy our event without constantly checking our phones. This was such a relief, especially since we’ve had a bad experience with a previous sitter who never sent updates. Ellen went above and beyond, and we could truly feel the difference in Ziva’s comfort. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Ellen, for caring for Ziva like she was your own!”
“Kelli has been so amazing with Millie. She really has the best time at daycare and comes home completely worn out in the best way. It’s such a good feeling knowing she’s being cared for by someone who genuinely loves what they do. Couldn’t recommend more!!!”
“Will definitely use Sydney again. I don’t trust very many people with my baby but she did an amazing job with him :) very attentive to my pup. He was very excited to be dropped off in the morning. He came home tired and happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave him with❤️”
“Olivia was really great with Lucky. He fit right in with her puppies and they had so much fun playing in her big yard. She also sent me pic and video updates. I will definitely be using be using her services again. 10/10!!! Thanks!!!”
“They have been wonderful sitters—friendly and communicative. Our dog loves her time there and it’s god to know that she’s well taken care of. Comfy space with a fenced in yard and their dog is a good playmate.”
About: Hello, My name is Cristian! I love working with and providing care for animals. 🐕🐈🐒🐐🐖🐹🦜🐢🐍🐟 I am learning to house train unfocused puppies, using positive reinforcement and kennel training. To teach commands to an overly energetic and reluctant learner can be an ongoing process though.🐶🐶 I'm able to send picture updates of your pets if you'd like. 🤳 I am hoping to train my own dog to become a guide dog and socialization with other dogs/animals is important for this training. I'm willing to run or jog with them, to help rid pets of excess energy and keep them docile while inside.🏃♂️ I can bring my dog along for play dates and socialization training if allowed, or even just take them for leisurely walks around the neighborhood every couple hours.🏘 I can do drop by visits, pick them up to take them to the park if your animal is okay with car rides, or just stay at the house. 🏍 I prefer to minimize kennel time as much as possible. Animals shouldn't be caged. 😺 A kennel/crate should only be safe retreat for your pet to relax and feel comfortable in their own space. If you are interested in any of these services feel free to contact me via text or email.😁 Open availability currently, doing this full-time and enjoying it. Would have plenty of time, patience, and energy for energetic, timid, injured, or special need animals. I've a backyard, a quiet neighborhood, large dog park behind the neighborhood, and plenty of walking trails nearby. Including most locals are very friendly towards people and animals.
“Emily is an absolutely amazing dog sitter! She cared for my pup during a doggy stay at her home, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Emily and her wonderful family welcomed my dog with open arms, keeping him busy and happy the entire time. She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Despite the terrible cold weather, Emily made sure my pup got plenty of short but frequent walks, always prioritizing his comfort and well-being. It’s clear she genuinely loves and understands dogs, and I couldn’t recommend her enough. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Anna, was very friendly ☺️ and patient with Dulce. Our little dog is very spoiled because she's always with us, and leaving her behind was absolutely necessary, but Anna did everything she could to make her feel comfortable and welcome.Thank you again Anna.”
“We have an older dog who has anxiety being left alone so I’ve been looking for a doggy day care type of care for her when I can’t be home. The Rover app was recommended to us and we found Diana online who was highly rated. Wonderful experience and will book again. Thank you.”
About: I have experience, taking care of cats, dogs, and chickens. I am willing to take care of smaller animals, such as hamsters, birds or guinea pigs as well. During the summer, I am home most days of the week. I am a full time teacher so I am off during the summer. Therefore I am very reliable and flexible with times. I have a fenced in yard that’s big enough for dogs to get some exercise. I have two kids who enjoy seeing and meeting new animals.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Roadside commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 315 sitters in Roadside, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
