“We were so happy to have found Anna to watch Jagger for a last minute day trip we went on. She is a caring, kind, & thoughtful person. We could tell Jagger had a great day with Anna. We highly recommend her to take great care of your pet.”

“Kira was great to work with! I reached out to her last minute and she was extremely accommodating and easy going. I boarded my 2 Pomeranians at her house for a week while I traveled. My dogs seemed perfectly happy when I picked them up! Would absolutely recommend Kira as well as use again!”
“Gus was well taken care of for his 3 day stay with Jenna. He l Seemed to love her fenced in back yard and enjoyed her dogs as well. Will let him with her again if it works out. Thank you Jenna!”
“Easy to work with, very friendly. We lost our 11 yr old English Bulldog a few short weeks before our mini vacation and got a new puppy. They worked with us by going from expecting to care of a senior dog to canceling that reservation because of our loss and then taking on the challenges of a much more energetic, still being trained, puppy. We were able to go away for a bit and enjoy ourselves knowing our new little guy was being well cared for. Thank you!!”
“Lynnea took such great care of our girl, Piper! She posted pictures and videos of her regularly to give us peace of mind. I love the set up - a large fenced yard to run around, a covered patio to get out of the sun, and the "suite" where Piper slept. Lynnea's own dog, Ruger is a sweetheart. 💙 I have already asked Lynnea about day care for Piper to play and socialize with other dogs. We will definitely ask Lynnea to watch Piper again!”
About: I've been pet sitting since i was 13, I am currently 19 with a dog and cat of my own! I've taken care of seniors as-well as puppies. I've potty trained, taught tricks, and have done special care when needed. I love to go on long hikes and bring my dog with me! I go on walks about 3 times a day, as my dog is very active. Feel free to ask me questions! I would love to watch your pup. :) I'm available for pet sitting any day of the week at any times! I can handle seniors aswell as active dogs. I would love to spend time with your pup. I have one super friendly dog that loves to play and gets along great with cats. I go on 3 walks a day with my pup. She is very active and friendly. Your pup will be able to relax and also get the outside time they need. I have a big fenced in backyard perfect for running around and playing.
“Jessica was amazing with Felix, kept me up to date on how he was doing and provided a bunch of pictures. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous, but she made it extremely worry free. Her dogs were extremely friendly and even welcomed Felix the minute they saw each other. I will definitely choose her to watch Felix again!”
“Betsy did a wonderful job taking care of our girl! She was super accommodating to all of her specific needs and made sure she felt safe and comfortable. It was such a relief to know Remy was in good hands and with someone who treated her as one of her own. I definitely recommend booking with Betsy. Remy is already looking forward to her next stay!”
“Very welcoming & made my fur baby feel right at home! Communication was prompt and received updates with photos. Above & beyond service. Will definitely book again and refer to others. Thank you!”
“We were very nervous about leaving our chloe for the 1st time but Amy and Patrick were wonderful. They messaged us daily and sent pictures of chloe making as feel at ease. We will definitely be using them again in the future.”
“Michael was very accommodating regarding booking my pup’s stay being that it was somewhat last minute. This was the first time I had booked with Michael, and everything was great. He was very attentive and communicated with me throughout the three-day stay. He did Pup Painting with her, and she came home with her masterpiece! I know my baby was taking care of, and I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Kathy took great care of my cat! It was my cat Lydia's first time staying somewhere new, and she made herself right at home at Kathy's. Kathy was very attentive and responsive, and Lydia loved watching the birds on the deck! I would definitely recommend Kathy and would book her for Lydia again.”
“Angel is so accommodating and kind to our little guy. She sends pics, videos, and progress reports during his stay and he really always has a great time with her and her family.”
“Goose was so happy after his overnight stay with Oleg! He was able to play and get lots of love at his house. Oleg was responsive and flexible with us to make it a pleasant experience for us just as much as it was for Goose!”
“I felt very good about the care I was receiving from videos and pictures. I felt max was in good hands and it showed a very well organised house with a fenced in yard in the back. I will definitely use him again. Thanks again”
“Another wonderful stay with De’Andra and Robert. We feel lucky to have found them to care for our dog Bentley when we have to be away. They are a true blessing; our mind is always at peace when Bentley is with them with all the updates, pictures and videos they send. They really make a point to love your pet as if it was their own.”
“Amanda took excellent care of my pup, which is a challenging thing to do with his medication requirements. Webster was comfortable at Amanda's place and had a good time with her dog. I recommend Amanda and will use her services again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rockwood
Samantha (and family) were great throughout the entire process. Let’s be clear on the task we asked Samantha to take on…which was boarding our five month old Labrador puppy…for ten days…which added an additional layer of chaos. Samantha happily agreed to care for our dog and her communication, which included updates and pics, was excellent throughout the process. We were able to visit family overseas with the peace of mind that our puppy was being well cared for by Samantha (and her family). We would have our puppy stay with Samantha again without hesitation.

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.
96% of sitters in Rockwood 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 Rockwood 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 Rockwood.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Rockwood 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.
