“Thank you so much Mayra for taking amazing care of my baby boy on this long stay. Mayra is amazing and i can tell by the pictures and videos i was receiving daily that Milo was in loving care. Thank you so much to Mayra and her family!”

“My puppy had another awesome visit with Carol. She is a great sitter who treats my puppy like her own and keeps me updated with pictures and reports. I can go away with peace of mind knowing my puppy is in good hands. Carol is a blessing.”

“Johanny and her family did a great job caring for my fur baby! Johanny was super flexible; she kept in touch with me and sent me pictures/videos. I’d recommend and would love to have Tucker back in Johanny’s care again!”
“My dog Esco had another great stay with Scott! They went for long walks daily and Scott sent lots of pictures to keep me updated. Scott kept Esco active and engaged. I definitely recommend Scott for dog sitting!”

“Tristan was responsible and appears to have done a great job in caring for our energetic Siberian Husky. He ready to assist us with gladness in spite of our WiFi blackouts. When we returned we had our updates waiting for us. I would not only use him again personally, but would recommend him to others.”
“Alexa's great!! She told me that Luna cuddled with her cat and got along well with her dog. I am appreciative that she was flexible with pickup and dropoff. Would definitely ask her again :)”

“George was excellent with my dog Mojo. Mojo is a very timid dog and George was perfect for him. He would regularly send us videos and Mojo was happy and having so much fun. George is great and I would recommend him for anyone.”

“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”


“If Joan is available, book her! Our boy immediately felt at home, and was loved and cared for so well. He was happy to see us….but was in no hurry to leave. Joan adapted everything to his needs, asked all the right questions, gave him lots of attention and kept us updated. It is hard to find the right sitter, and we will travel out of our way for Joan to sit Mac again.”
“Our Cavapoo Rosa had the best time at Tracy's. She loved playing with Tracy's children and the whole family was just so nice. I don't think Rosa really wanted to come home! Tracy sent me updates and photos at regular intervals so I had no worries.”

“Leidy, was wonderful providing some updates and understanding my boy. She provided care and walks and came back smelling better than before. I see attention to detail and real care in her work. Thank you so much for taking so much care while I was away look forward to returning him again to your care in future.”

“Our pup Leia had a wonderful time spending the weekend with Deirdre. She didn’t want to leave….Literally walked to the house with Deirdre instead of coming with me when it was time to leave 😂 We will definitely be booking again when we need accommodations for our fur baby.”

“Chonlada and her family provided a wonderful stay for our dog who is sixteen years old and has dietary and other special needs. She was treated like she was at a spa retreat. They even knitted her a new sweater!”

“Marla watched my dog for a week in August 2019. She was very quick to respond to any questions or concerns. My dog was very happy at her home and extremely well taken care of. She is a great pet sitter. Thank you, Marla. Will definitely use her again.”
“Highly, highly, highly recommend Joan! From the moment I dropped off my cat I was completely at ease because he immediately made himself comfortable, which he typically doesn’t do. Joan was great, and sent a lot of pictures and made me feel secured with leaving my baby with her! Thank you so much, Joan, and again I highly recommend booking with Joan!!”

“I had a wonderful experience. Kadie took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos. She was incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, attentive dog sitter! Thank you so much for loving my dog as if he was yours! 😊”

“Katie is wonderful. She is caring and attentive to our cat Moscato. She sees to it that Moscato is happy and comfortable. I am very happy that Katie accepted to take care of him.”

“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”

“Amanda was amazing! I would 1000% recommend. She is/was awesome with correspondence the whole time we were away and was engaged enough with our girl to give regular updates which helped ease any worry while we were gone. I felt confident that she was well taken care of. Will absolutely reach out to her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Schofer 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 Schofer.
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.
You and your Schofer 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.
