“This is the second time my little Ellie has stayed with Grace and I swear Ellie lives her best life there!! Grace keeps me updated in how she is doing with pics and texts!! I will definitely being booking with Grace in the future!!”
“So accommodating and friendly. This was our first time boarding, and pretty instantly we knew our pup was in good hands! The pictures were so appreciated, and we’re incredibly grateful for the care our dog was given.”
“Chester was great. He sent us many pictures and videos of our puppy. He had a great play area setup. We felt like our dog was in great hands. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking or a reliable dog sitter!”
“Scotty was fantastic with my dog Chloe and he made the whole process really easy. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs he watches. I especially appreciated that he even came to pick up my dog, which was a huge help. I’d definitely trust him with my dog again and highly recommend him to others.”
“This was my first time boarding my dog Marley, a senior small dog we adopted from the local shelter. When I was looking for a sitter on Rover, Chrisie's profile said she only accepts small dogs which made me more comfortable as I'm not sure how Marley would have been around large or aggressive dogs. We did a meet and greet and I knew she was going to be a great sitter. And she was !! She kept in touch with me and sent photos of Marley and Marley always looked so happy! And Chrisie loved Marley too and showed him so much love while she watched him for me. When I picked him up he looked like he was going to miss her and honestly that made me happy because I knew that he trusted her. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my Marley and I look forward to bringing him over again!”
“Laurie took amazing care of Oscar during his stay with her. He pulled a muscle while playing and she was incredibly communicative with me about how he was doing, taking him to my vet to be checked out, and keeping me posted on his improvement. I hated having to be away from him while he went through that but she put all my worries at ease.”
“Katie provided wonderful care for our dog at her residence while we were away. She took the time to get to know myself and my dog prior to her stay. It was our lab's first time boarding and Katie sent updates regularly throughout the day which helped ease the transition. Katie's professionalism, passion and love for the animals was evident throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend!”
About: My name is Justin and I've been dog/pet sitting for many many years! It started out by just helping a neighbor, but the word got out and I've been pet sitting ever since. I have watched a variety of pets including dogs, cats, lizards, birds, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits! I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. I think hanging out with dogs and getting paid for it is a dream come true. I am currently an accountant and looking to make some extra cash to pay off student loans. I would love to watch your furry family member and their safety will always be at the top of my list!
About: We have taken care of numerous dogs over 10+ years, from day stays to full week watches. We have bread six litters with many happy families created! We have a happy family, great dogs, and an incredible piece of property for your wonderful pups to enjoy! I am off over the summer with a lot of flexibility so I have ample time to let out, let run, and ensure they are comfortable here! We have two wonderfully trained dogs for your dogs to play and run around with! We also have two outdoor kennels as well as two indoor crates, depending on what your needs are. We are able to be flexible and support what you may need!
“Tanjida and her husband are absolutely wonderful. They’ve very gentle, loving, and warm. They paid attention to Minks allowing her to open up and be hee loving self. Tanjida sent pictures and updates throughout the two days.”
“Keren and her family took such incredible care of Sofie while we were away for a week. ❤️ Sofie has severe separation anxiety and therefore needs to have constant companionship and they were thankfully able to accommodate our request. We received daily updates and photos and Sofie definitely had a great time during her stay. ☺️ Thank you again!! We’d highly recommend Keren and hope to use her again in the future.”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was little, starting with Champ, the family golden retriever. As I got older, I adopted my own dog during my time in law school, Sasha (see profile photo), who is a Shepherd-Pyrenees mix. After Sasha, along came Sadie the Great Pyrenees. Needless to say, I have a lot of hands-on experience with larger breeds and know how to handle them on walks. I've also cared for the dogs of many people in my life - my wife's Golden Doodle, my best friend's Golden Doodle, and even my old boss's Beagle (just to name a few). Additionally, I spent a semester in college volunteering at an animal shelter where I was tasked with walking the largest dogs they had. Friends and family call me the "dog-whisperer" because I always find a way to make friends with every dog I come across. I work full-time but get to work from home three (3) days per week - always on Friday and most Mondays, with the third day varying by week. I'm also free on the weekends! I treat my dogs like human family members (sometimes even better) and will treat yours the same way! I will go the extra mile to make sure your dog is well-cared for.
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping them company while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own! I have flexibility in my schedule and can work with you to figure out what works best for your pet. I’m happy to discuss days and times ahead of time and make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are really important to me. I’ll follow your instructions, keep their routine in mind, and make sure they have everything they need. I’ll also keep you updated and let you know how things are going so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have experience caring for a wide range of animals—cats, dogs, gerbils, guinea pigs, ferrets, reptiles, and more! Skilled in adolescent/senior animal care and quick to adapt when facing challenges. I commute to college on Mondays and Wednesdays, with classes ending around noon, so I can be available after. I’m free all other days and encourage you to inquire about last-minute or same-day appointments! When caring for pets in others’ homes, I follow all provided guidelines to a T, ensuring extra care and attention afterward—whether through cuddling, pets, or playtime. In my own home, I offer a spacious environment with no other pets (besides caged ferrets in my room), a large front yard for play, and a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor fun. Your pets will always receive loving, personalized care in a safe and comfortable space!

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.
96% of sitters in Rowland 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 Rowland 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 Rowland.
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 Rowland. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Rowland 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.
