“Couldn’t be more complementary about Lindsay and her family other than to say that they made Rusty feel like another part of their family. They welcomed him with open arms knowing he had counter surfing issues and separation anxiety. From the photos she sent, it is evident that Rusty enjoyed his stay.”

“This was the first time leaving our dog with a sitter so we were a little nervous about whether he’d be ok, if he’d miss us & be anxious, etc. I told Amy our concerns & she assured us all would be good & it so was! Our baby had the best time! She does doggy day care as well so Augs had so many friends to play with. She was very communicative- not only answered my messages in a timely manner but sent me her own as well with lots of pics. We would definitely use her services again if needed. Thank you Amy!”

About: My family has 1 cat and 1 dog! Since moving away, I have missed my time with my furry friends! My other experience includes voluntarily walking and boarding friend’s dogs. I also used to volunteer at the SPCA in Charlottesville, VA caring for cats and dogs. I have updated my boarding availability for the month of December. I will be taking time off from work and will have plenty of time to give your pup love and attention! :) I don’t have a fenced yard, but I have plenty of outdoor space (grass and/or pavement) to walk your pup on a leash in my neighborhood!

About: If you can't find me at the party, I'm most likely wherever the dogs are! Since the age of 5, I have owned and cared for many different dogs. From large fluffy beasts to small pampered queens, I have the patience and love to care for your pet. I am good at training a pooch a trick or two, taking them on adventurous walks, and playing with them at a level they are comfortable with. My friends often call me the dog whisperer because I take the time to bond with dogs so they become comfortable enough around me if you're not there. It's simple - dogs truly make the world a better place. I work full-time throughout the week so I am available after working hours (5PM). I may be able to make an exception for mornings Mondays and Fridays (remote work days). I am available most weekends as needed. With my experience caring for a variety of dogs over the years, I am adaptable to your dog's routine and needs. I am comfortable with crating your dog if needed and walking them at their required level. I require a clean and safe environment to care for your pet.

“Great peace of mind leaving my two dogs with Samantha when a family emergency mandated I leave town suddenly. She was quick to respond and and very flexible with pick-up days/times, which I really appreciated. When I picked my pups up, they were happy and calm from all the playtime they got in Samantha's large, shady backyard. Will definitely book again with Samantha in the future!”

Right from my first contact she was quick to respond to my questions and was flexible, on the date and time for our meet and greet! As soon as we met on the meet and greet my mind was put to ease. Her demeanor was calming and caring. I have never left my dogs before and my fears were quickly put to rest when I met her! Christine was great at communicating. She sent pictures throughout my time away. I would not hesitate using her again and highly recommend others use her as well!! THANK YOU CHRISTINE!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years, from walking and feeding to overnight stays. I often pet-sit for friends when they travel, and I've also rescued and nursed several stray dogs back to health. Every dog I care for is treated with the same love and attention as my own. I work from home full-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I'm able to walk, feed, and spend time with dogs throughout the day, not just during set hours. Weekends and evenings are open for boarding as well. I provide a calm, clean, and secure indoor environment for boarding dogs. Each dog gets a comfortable resting area, and I take them out for regular walks and bathroom breaks. Safety is always my top priority. I never leave dogs unsupervised in unfamiliar or hazardous situations.

“For years I’ve struggled with not having a support system in place to feel at ease when going on vacation with my dog. I may not have a close family to do so but I do have Kasey and Alyssa. These two watched my bulldog Frank and did an amazing job. Cared about all my concerns and over protective dog dad issues. I went to pick Frank up after almost a week away and he loved it so much it was like they were his new family. I have some work to do now to win my dog back over lolol. That says a lot about the care and attention they provided Frank who is part of my family. Thank You from the bottom of my heart. You girls are the best !!!!”

As always, the dogs had a great time with Hannatu. One of our boys takes a bit to settle in and the other can sometimes have separation anxiety. Hannatu is always patient and communicative about this. Our flight was also delayed and Hannatu was so understanding and even offered to have the dogs stay one more night. Overall, another great stay!

We have used Shanna twice to watch our dogs and have had a great experience each time. What we like most is how attentive Shanna is with our dogs and with making us and them feel totally at ease while in her care. She sends pictures throughout their stay and gives updates so we can see how they are doing. We would recommend Shanna and I'm sure we'll have her watch our dogs again in the future (Beagle and Aussie).

We found Jessi last minute before a week-long beach trip, and couldn't have asked for a better experience. We got daily photos and videos with updates from Jessi every day that we were gone. It was so reassuring to see Winnie happy and comfortable while we were away. Jessi also took Winnie on daily walks, so we knew she was getting plenty of exercise and attention. Coming home to a relaxed, well-cared-for dog made our vacation that much better. We'll definitely be booking with her again! Highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Ross Township

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ross Township is $48 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 881 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ross Township. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

94% of sitters in Ross Township 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 Ross Township 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 Ross Township.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ross Township. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Ross Township 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
