“Christina is a dedicated professional in taking care of her doggie clients. We just picked up our 2 dogs and were more than happy with her services. We highly recommend Christina to take care of your precious pets.”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Abner. He was very communicative from the start and helped ease my anxiety about leaving my dogs with a stranger. Throughout my trip away, he sent photos and updates on both of my babies. My dogs came home happy and I could tell that they were on their own mini vacation over the weekend. Abner was a delight, and I hope to have him take care of my babies again in the future.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have plenty of experience dog sitting for others. I currently work in the vet corps, so caring for dogs is nothing new. Being around dogs isn’t just familiar to me it’s something I genuinely love. I work full-time, but I’m available most afternoons after I get off between 12–2 PM. Thursdays are my longer work days, but I’m fully open on weekends. This schedule gives me plenty of time to provide reliable, attentive care. I have a spacious yard, though it isn’t fenced in. However, my community has a great dog park where I can take your pup to play. I also have a friendly dog of my own who loves meeting new friends and gets along well with other dogs. I’m very attentive and always follow any rules or routines you set for your pet.
“Freckles was born during the pandemic, so socialization was difficult. Chrisie’s dogs embraced Freckles with open “paws” making it easier for him to be comfortable. Additionally, Freckles, never left her side, making him feel safe. I received pics and updates frequently. Chrisie was a great recommendation. I will definitely use her again!”
“Hannelie took excellent care of jax and took him for walks everyday and sent updates of how he was doing. Would definitely recommend as a matter of fact she is taking care of jax again.”
“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: I have been taking care of animals of all kinds for over 10 years! I have been doing it professionally for 5+ years as my full-time gig. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but am not new to early mornings or late night stops. So if it is an early morning run they need or a late night snuggle session, I can make it happen! If you find yourself stuck at work or getting a delayed flight I can help fill in the gaps. Weekends are dang near fair game. Reach out and we can discuss what your and your pets needs are so that a plan can be made to meet everyone's needs! Caring for animals of all kinds, ages, needs, and abilities (including farm animals) is my regular day job so it is also fitting that I do it outside my 9-5. I am comfortable giving oral meds and injections so that your pet gets everything they need while you are working or away. Let me know what helps your pet feel most comfortable and happy and I will make it happen! I am currently working full-time Monday through Friday 9-5 with weeknights/early mornings wide open. So stops to check on, feed, or just play and snuggle with your best friend before or after work are my specialty! Weekends I also have availability to make multiple stops and ensure everyone's needs are met. Holidays are also usually fair game for me to help since my family is pretty close to home! I keep the site up to date almost daily so that you can be sure that your days/holidays are free for me to help! I have a very friendly dog and two lovable cats in my home that love new friends. I am happy to leash walk, crate pets as needed, dispense medications and make adjustments as required. In my home the house is fair game with no "off the couch" rule unless you prefer there to be. I am here to enforce or let slide whatever you are comfortable with! I do not currently have a fenced in yard, but am working on that! I care for pets as if they were my own and boundaries are in place to your specifications! Let's make a plan together.
“Alexandra was great and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her for a long weekend. She has a beautiful property where she took our dog out for daily hikes. Great communication throughout her visit and we received regular photos. Highly recommend!”
“Our 8-1/2 year old beagle is very attached to us, and we have never left him in anyone's care for a stretch of 3 weeks. So we were a bit nervous about booking services with ANYONE. We booked with Sarah based on the positive reviews for her that we read, and are so happy that we did! From our first meeting, our beagle boy was very comfortable with her. It was also comforting for us to know how much broad experience Sarah has had with pet care. We received consistent updates and pictures of him while we were away, and could see that he was happy to be in her care. Sarah tended to our precious boy as though he was one of her own pets, and he was healthy and happy when we came to take him home. We were more than satisfied with the care she provided, will use her again with no hesitation, and highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Carissa was a great sitter for Lennox - he seems to have enjoyed her care and the company of her pet, Judge. He came back happy! During his stay with her, Carissa kept in touch with me with appropriate updates, including photos and a few short videos. She was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which was great because my return home was delayed a little bit with traffic. I’d recommend her for sure and already booked Lennox for another stay with her in a few weeks!”
“laurie was fantastic and had an amazing space for rowley. her dog was super friendly. she’s a pro with juggling many animals at once. came back to a well cared for and exercised dog!”
“We couldn't have been more blessed to find a loving person to watch over our baby. He is spoiled at home by his mommy, so he doesn't like to be left out of our daily routine. Allie communicated with us on a daily basis so we could enjoy our time with our daughter's family. We had never left our baby with a sitter, so it was emotionally hard for us, but after seeing many photos of our son being loved by Allie and her daughter, we will definitely use her services again. We highly recommend her as a top choice to watch your pet; she's an angel.”
About: I currently have 2 dogs + 4 cats! I love them and care for them like they are my babies. I always make sure I keep them stimulated and happy to ensure a healthy and loving life. I would love to care for and love your animals like my own! I am working per-diem starting in october. My schedule is changing but if you just reach out i'd be happy to share that with you! I am super flexible and can help you with anything! My dogs are very dog friendly and loving to almost all other dogs. They are very socialized to other dogs and cats. I can walk your dog, let them out, or you can drop them off at my house for daycare or meet me to exchange them as well! If your dog isn't dog friendly I would be happy to keep them separate and comfortable! I have a fence for the dogs to run around and play. I also have ties outs for the dogs as well. We live in a wooded neighborhood on a dirt road that is super quiet!
About: My Roomate and I have been working with dogs our whole lives. We both work full time at doggy daycares as managers. I also have experienced in working with farm animals as well. We want to eventually open our own doggy daycare and thought that this was the best way to get started. We have experience in bathing, nail trimming, administration of medication and supervising large play groups between 5 to 60 dogs by ourselves. Including dogs of all sizes and temperaments. We have 2 dogs and a cat of our own. We take pride in providing a sweet loving environment for every dog and making sure every dog receives the needs personalized to them. We would love to meet your fur babies and give them a fun time to enjoy their vacation just as much as you enjoy yours. We look forward to hearing from all of you. We are available for drop ins, walks and overnight boarding in our home from Friday nights to Tuesday mornings. During the time that your pet is with us we will be home with them 95% of the time to make sure they get the love and attention that they deserve. We give every dog 24/7 attention and activities that suit every dog based on their own needs. We supervise any group play with dogs to make sure of everyone’s safety.

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 Tafton 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 Tafton 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 Tafton.
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 Tafton. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Tafton 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.
