âSO GREAT!!! My dogs are usually really anxious in a new place, and they adjusted really well with Rachel and her family. She sent lots of pictures so I was reassured during the few days my dogs were with her. I'll definitely be booking with her again!â
âWe canât recommend Bryanna and Devin highly enough. Wonderful communicators from start to finish. They asked insightful questions that showed us that their priority was making sure Alfie was acclimating, comfortable, and happy. After the first update they sent, we never once had any concerns about his time there. He came home relaxed and content and his behavior told me they were liberal with treats and affection đ¤. Theyâre just great people in a happy home who love animals and itâs great to know they can be our first call if he needs cared for in the future.â
âDana was great! I needed a sitter at the last second and she was able to watch Colbie with no problem. She sent lots of pictures of her during her stay, and treated her just like one of her own dogs. I could tell that Colbie received lots of love and attention and was very happy. She got fresh chicken mixed with her food for dinner every night, and was even allowed to bring her favorite toy home with her. I will definitely be booking with Dana again in the future!â
âZach and his family were amazing, stayed in contact the entire trip, sent pictures and were extremely kind! I think Fenrir was actually a bit sad to go at the end. I would 100% recommend his services to anyone and everyone, definitely at the top of my list for sitters!â
âIâm so glad to have found Cassandra to watch my dog when I go out of town! She is wonderful! She provides regular updates and photos, and is very prompt in replying to messages. I book with her every time I am out of town now and my dog always comes back really happy and relaxed, and I know Cassandra and her family take such good care of him. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.â
âRaeann was amazing! From the initial meet and greet it was clear that Hudson would be well cared for. During his stay, she shared pictures/updates of their time together. She opened up her home to him. I will absolutely consider Raeann again to take care of Hudson while I travel!â
âMy 2 dogs stayed with Christina and Daniel for 8 nights. I got several pictures and updates about my dogs during their stay. My dogs were happy and healthy when I picked them up.â
âHailey was very good with our husky pup. She kept our puppy at her house for 6-days while we were on vacation. She communicated very well and sent pictures throughout our pups stay. It was nice to have a safe place for our pup to stay while we were on vacation. We will definitely being using Hailey again in the future!â
âMy pup had a great time with all of the playmates at Veronicaâs house. When I picked him up he looked so happy as she pet him goodbye. Veronica was flexible with drop off and pick up and overall it was a very smooth process. Will definitely stay with Veronica again.â

About: I've had dogs and cats in my life for over 20 years, and I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else. I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and affection throughout the day. I have a sweet miniature schnauzer named Brad who is a big part of my daily routine. I only accept one client's pets at a time, so your dog won't be competing with a house full of unfamiliar animals for attention. I want their stay to feel relaxed, comfortable, and as close to home as possible. My home has a partially fenced yard, and I'm happy to follow your dog's usual feeding, walking, and sleeping routines. I'll also send pictures and updates so you can see how they're doing while you're away. Whether you're traveling for a weekend or heading out on vacation, I'll treat your pet like part of the family. I work from home, so I'm around throughout the day to give your dog plenty of attention, walks, and company. My miniature schnauzer, Brad, is already part of my daily routine, so caring for another dog fits naturally into our day. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate your pet's usual feeding, walking, and rest times. I want your dog to feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I only board one client's pets at a time, so they receive personalized attention in a relaxed home environment. I have a partially fenced yard and always supervise outdoor time. I'm happy to follow your dog's usual routines and any special instructions. I'll also send pictures and updates so you know how they're doing.
âJack loved his visit! They were so good with him and provided updates and photos throughout the day. Their dogs Chowder and Regina are awesome, and my dog enjoyed spending time with them. Will definitely be using them for my next upcoming trips! 10/10â
âPriyanka was a pleasure to have watching our dog Joey. I was late in booking her but she made the time to meet with us to make sure it was a good fit, which it was! I plan on requesting her again as I know Joey enjoyed his stay with her!â
âEXCELLENT!!!! Thank you so much for loving on our dog while we were away. Liberty liked being with you and the other friendly dogs so much that I am sure she is missing them now that she is home. We will definitely be using your services again and again. Thanks for all the pics and daily updates too! Our family enjoyed seeing them each day. We missed her so much but could relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that Liberty was having an absolute ball with you.â
âThis was our first time leaving our 9 month old Golden Retriever, and we were all anxious. Sklyer was very kind and understanding about our nervousness, and she was a great communicator. We received pictures and updates daily, and Copper was well taken care of and seemed to have a great time. We were able to enjoy our Christmas trip to see family knowing he was in good hands. I would recommend Sklyer, and certainly have Copper stay with her again.â

Megan took great care of Cali and she sent me pictures every day. It was obvious that Cali was having a good time on her âvacationâ while we were on our vacation!

If you would like updates while youâre away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent youâd 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 dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Southview can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Southview 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 Southview.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs 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 Southview. On Rover:
- 91% 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 Southview sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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. Youâll 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.
