“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.”
“Our three senior pups love Amanda! We went away for 10 days and ran into some issues on our way home. Amanda was incredibly flexible and kind with the pick up. The dogs were well cared for and we had peace of mind while we were out of town. Thanks, Amanda!”
“Michael and family were great! He was very responsive and checked in every day. You could tell he cared for my fur baby and took great care of her. He listened to her routine and also spoiled her with lots of snuggles and attention. I’m not sure she actually wanted to come home! I would 100% recommend Michael- and I will be sending my fur baby to daycare camp with him again!”
“Andrew took great care of Luna while I was out of town!!! I could tell Luna was having fun and was comfortable by the pictures and videos he’d send me. My mind was at ease while I was away from my fur baby which was so nice!”
“Excellent communication! My pup was given lots of love and attention. He is a shy dog and Lynnea's strong understanding of dogs helped him to quickly adjust to this home away from home. I highly recommend her!”
“Kaylee was AMAZING! Not only did she take great care of my pup, but she was super detailed and sweet - made him Easter egg treats 🥚💕 to take home! Kept me posted with adorable pics too. Highly recommend!”
“Yianna watched our year and a half old lab, Mazzy, who still has tons of puppy energy. She was patient with Mazzy and provided us with updates and pictures. If we come back to the area and need a sitter again, we would happily choose Yianna.”
“So happy I found Donna on River. She took care of my Bud-Bud over the Thanksgiving holiday. She made him feel at ease in her home and around her family. Daily pictures of him helped to ease my stress. I could tell he was very well taken care of. Worth every penny and more. She is a true dog lover.”
“Hunter loves being with her and her family. He is treated very special like he part of their family. Would definitely recommend her. We will be definitely using her services again.”
“Krista has hosted our lab retriever, Ellie, twice. Both times were fantastic. Krista is always very easy to communicate with! She is great with dogs. It’s nice that our dog can socialize and play while she stays with Krista and her family. I also appreciate how she always has Ellie‘s things packed and ready to go when I come for pick up- it makes drop off and pick up quick and easy. We will definitely rebook with her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“If there were 7 STARS, that would have been my rating! Whenever we boarded Jasper, he came back with an issue. Either he stopped eating, changed habits, or simple was scared from other big dogs. We saw Angelita’s profile and shared our concerns. She was very responsive, and helped us to overcome these challenges. She kept an eye on his eating habits, she made him socialize with other dogs, and played with him as if he were her own. This is the first time that Jasper comes back home in a happy mood and without any issue. This made us SUPER HAPPY and comfortable! For the first time we can say we found someone who takes care of him as much as we would have. She loved him so much that Jasper came back home with GIFTS! For that, we would always think of her whenever we want to board him. You want someone to take care of your dog? With a blink of an eye, Angelita is the right person.”
“Dawn was absolutely wonderful! She was very communicative and consistently kept me updated on Milo throughout his stay, which gave me great peace of mind. Milo also had a great time playing with her dog and seemed to really enjoy himself. I would definitely book with Dawn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“100% recommended. I felt very calm throughout my trip because JoEllen was in constant communication with me everyday, She always sent me photos and updates on how my dear Ginger was doing. THANK YOU VERY MUCH”
About: I’ve owned doggies for the last 15 years. Twice did I have two dogs under my care for over a years’ time. I cared for a senior dog, during the last year of his life. I made sure the only things he thought about were loves and snuggles. Dogs are a gift. I work from home 8-4 Tuesday through Friday, with an in office day on Mondays. I can do most of my work from a laptop anywhere that has Wi-Fi. I have a small fenced in back yard that is large enough for 2-3 dogs at once. I live in a quiet neighborhood, right next to a park. Plenty of space for walks and potty breaks.
“Wonderful sitter and positive experience to leave our two pups with Sarah. They took to Sarah immediately and there was no problem leaving them. Sarah responds immediately to messages and is very trustworthy. When we need a sitter again, we will definitely contact her.”
“Lorrie was a wonderful person to pick for my active, loud mouthed goldendoodle. She sent pictures and updates throughout our vacation and took great care of her. I was very grateful to her and will definitely try to use her again!”
“Amazing sitter ! My boys looked happy and spoiled with love! Got updates everyday, communication was great! Would definitely recommend and leave my dogs with them again ❤️”
About: I have experience training puppies and working with senior dogs. I also have volunteered at my local vets office! I would love to spend time taking care of your pet. I work full-time but part time from home. I am also able to leave work on my breaks. I spend my evenings at home or going on walks. I hope you will give me the opportunity to care for your pet! I’m working full time but part time in office. Evening drop off/pick ups would work best. My husband also works Monday - Friday but if I am in office I can spend time at home on my breaks! I would give pets the free rein of my first floor with a crate option. We also have a fenced in yard for them to enjoy!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sand Hill
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.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Sand Hill is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $45 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 of November 2026, there are 520 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sand Hill. 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.
96% of sitters in Sand Hill 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 Sand Hill 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 Sand Hill.
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 Sand Hill. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 Sand Hill 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.
