“Melissa is an angel! She is incredible with all dogs and so accommodating and kind, even with some very short notice help we needed. Our senior dog loved her and her yard, I cannot recommend her enough, we are so happy we have found her for future sitting.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and we could not have dreamed of a better experience! Sara was so sweet and knowledgeable, and sent lots of wonderful photos. The next time we will absolutely go to her first!!”
“Allison took such good care of our pups while we were away for the weekend. Communication was awesome while one of our senior boys took a little while to settle in. Very appreciative!”
“Beth and her family deserve far more than 5 stars! The care and attention they gave our pups were truly exceptional. From the moment we met them, it was clear that our dogs would be in loving, capable hands. Beth and her family not only showered our dogs with affection, but also took them on daily walks and made sure they felt right at home. This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone outside of immediate family, so we were understandably a bit nervous. But Beth quickly put our minds at ease with her daily updates, sharing photos, sweet stories and little moments that made us smile and laugh from afar. I’m so grateful to have found Beth, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond!”
“So grateful to have booked with Mary and her family for the holidays. Faith made herself right at home and got the best of care. Mary was very attentive to Faith's quirks and needs; I was never concerned over how our dog was doing and knew she was in good hands.”
“Sandy was incredible with my Charlie girl! She is so compassionate and friendly. She kept me updated throughout my dog’s entire stay and sent me pictures of my girl often. I am so happy we chose Sandy to care for our pup. We will definitely use her again for our dog’s needs :)”
“Bryn and boots were great hosts! Bryn took great care of our dog Julie. She seemed to really care about and follow Julie’s schedule. She was extremely communicative and we really appreciated all the updates even during a holiday week. Julie seemed to love spending time and playing with Boots. We will definitely be requesting to book again!”
“Christine is the best! She was in constant communication with us in the lead up to and throughout Leo’s stay. She was flexible in working around our often changing pickup schedule and easily accommodated all of our pups needs. Will definitely book with Christine next time we need a dog sitter. Thanks again!”
“Stellar experience from start to finish! Phoebe had a blast and we humans loved getting all the detailed updates on her adventures and new friends. Will definitely book again in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for my own dog for years and regularly watch friends’ pups. I’m genuinely loving, attentive, dependable, and treat every pet like family! I work from home the majority of the week, so I have plenty of flexibility to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m also always out exploring with my own dog, so I’d love to bring your pup along for walks and adventures when appropriate! Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! Our home has two friendly cats, our own dog, and a large yard for supervised outdoor time. The yard is always used on a lead. I will treat your pet like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home!
About: I have cared for my own animals my whole life and have just recently said goodbye to my dog of 15 years. Though my family is not ready quite yet for another member, we miss having a dog in the house and would love to help care for yours! I love all animals, but have always had a special place in my heart for dogs. I work full time, but am fortunate enough to have the flexibility to work from home when needed so your furry pals will not go long stretches without love and attention! Our yard is partially fenced, however we have a lead for dogs outside, as well as the equipment and precautions to keep your pets safe if needed like crates, gates, etc. Our two cats are very friendly and good with dogs. They do spend most of their time on the second floor, so your pet would have free rein of our first floor!
“I was nervous about leaving my 7 month old lab for a week, especially with having some stomach problems prior to leaving. Chang was great at sending daily updates with pictures. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs to leave their pup behind while they go away”

About: I've taken care of my own dogs for the past 14 years from puppies to seniors. I love animals, big and small and am available both weekdays and weekends. I am a full-time college student with a very flexible schedule. I'm an active person and very excited to spend time with your furry friends! I live in an apartment near grass and parks. I also have many leashed and healthy and delicious treats I can bring with me for on-site sitting and walking.
“Linnea really cared for our little Bader and was perfectly attentive to his special needs. She stayed in touch with me while I was away and responded fast. Best of all, she did the job for Bader because she wanted him to be healthy, happy and safe. Thank you!”
“Maggie had a delightful time with Emily and Chase! They treated her like one of the family! She loved the shaded fenced-in yard and having two new dog friends to play with! Maggie received her medication that was needed while she was there, and Emily/Chase made sure that she got her calming chews when there were thunderstorms. We will definitely book with them again!”

Martin was a perfect person for my two dogs. They haven’t stayed away from home before. He was so patient with them and took time out to win Maggie over! They got walked, played, got groomed and mingled with his dogs. Picture of them looked like they all lived there.He made them feel like one of his family. Thanks Martin. We’ll be back!
Daniel did a wonderful job with our golden retriever. Although he had never spent time with our dog, Daniel understood what our dog craves (petting!) and what he really enjoys (playing with other dogs). Daniel’s dogs were great playmates to our dog. Also house very clean, a fenced in back yard and great communication. We will use Daniel again.
Mikaela was great! She took in our pup at the last minute due to a family emergency and was so flexible, kind and communicative. She took the time to look over my dog’s profile and had follow up questions for me at drop off. I really appreciated that attention to detail and I can tell my dog was very well cared for!
Pam was so friendly to me and, evidently, to my dog! She was understanding of his little quirks and helped him adjust to her house. Also, I didn't know how long he would need to stay, and she was very flexible and easy-going about extending his time. I wouldn't hesitate to call on her again.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Swissvale is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $61 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.
There are 907 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Swissvale. About 91% of Swissvale sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
