“Lorraine was great with my English bulldog Blu. She was very quick in responding to my messages. Two days before his stay with Lorraine he was bit by a spider and had an allergic reaction and she agreed to administer medication and took a great care of him. When we picked him up he looked happy and healthy so much so that he couldn’t care less that we were there to pick him up lol. Blu had a great time and we recommend and use Lorraine for future stays. Thank you”
“Deirdre did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. She sent photos of him having fun playing with her dogs and its help set us at ease. We plan to rebook with her in the future!”
“Megan was such a joy to work with. She took excellent care of Luna, provided plenty of pictures, and insight into how the week was going. We could tell how much fun Luna was having and knew she was in great hands. It’s clear that Megan truly has a love of dogs and we were so thankful to have found her. We will certainly be reaching out to Megan again in the future!”
“Blu came home either worn out from playing with the other dogs or depressed he had to leave the other dogs, but either way, Blu was in good hands and enjoyed himself so much that he didn't miss us! Tristan and his wife were very friendly and had a great home for Blu to feel comfortable while away from his own home.”
“Johanny is super sweet and pleasant and I can tell she loves dogs. She sent me updates and pics to let me know how Scout was doing. I will be a return customer for sure!”
“My dog was in good hands staying with Emanuel. He sent many pictures and updates during her 7 day stay. I was very comfortable knowing that she was being treated well and Emanuel is now my #1 choice for future dog sitting needs.”
“Hailey did an amazing job with Kylo. We were worried about leaving him since he has never been to a new place with us. She did such a great job with him and sent us photos of his stay. He felt we didn't have to worry at all. We are so happy we chose Hailey to watch our family member. We recommend her to anyone who wants to feel carefree when they have to leave their pet behind.”
“Debbie and her husband, Phil are truly the best dog sitters! I don’t ever worry when my dog, Jasper is there. She is so gracious to send a lot of pictures and videos. Her huge fenced in yard is amazing. Jasper loves to run with the other dogs. When I picked up Jasper this last time, he actually started to pull on his leash back towards Debbie’s to go back inside! Lol I give them 5 stars always, they deserve it!”
“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.”
“Elmo was really happy with Amber! Amber provided excellent care and safe environment for our dog. Daily messages and pictures kept us up to date and it was nice to hear how he was doing. Will definitely use Amber again and I’d happily recommend her to anyone!”
“Melinda was great with my 2yr old mini poodle Peaches! She was caring and attentive and my son and Peaches loved her sweet dogs River and Winter too! Highly recommend her sitting services and will book Peaches a stay again with her, she loved it!”
“Brooke and Jeremy were excellent hosts! It was nice receiving updates and pictures during our dogs stay and by the looks of it he had a great time! We would highly recommend them and would certainly use again!”
“Absolutely wonderful taking care of Jasper. He had a great time there. Avary does a great job of keeping in touch and sending pictures. Jasper came back tired, so I know he was having a lot of fun. I will not hesitate to have Avary watch him anytime we go on trips.”
“Kathleen is reliable, highly observant, and genuinely passionate about animals. This was observable through her friendly and warm demeanor, and compassionate verbal and physical interactions with Haru and his responsiveness to her. Her photo update was sincerely appreciated and gave a secure sense of transparency. The environment was clean, organized and provided ample free space for indoor and outdoor movement.”
“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!”
“David is a wonderful dog sitter. He went out of his way on a holiday to make sure my two pups were comfortable and happy. I will be bringing them back to him in the future!”
“Loved loved loveddd Maria and her family! From the beginning she was very open and communication was great! She kept me updated and loved on my dog like she was part of the family. My dog is definitely sad to leave but I will be rebooking with Maria the next time I need help! Thank you and your family for loving my girl she had a blast!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Scott loves dog and my dog had a great time with him. What attracted my attention at the beginning was Scott’s long term experience of taking care of dogs and turned a rescued dog into a therapy dog. During meet and greet, Scott was transparent and he told me his life stories particularly with dogs by showing many pictures. He missed his last dog Jack very much. He also patiently learned my dog’s behavior in order to make my dog being less stressful and comfortable during boarding. He was willing to make changes to accommodate my dog’s behavior and he prepared well before I dropped off my dog. He updated me at least once a day with multiple pictures. I could see my dog was happy, playful and tired. When I picked up my dog, Scott reviewed details with me what happened during my dog’s stay. I highly recommend Scott being your dog sitter. Your dog will be in good hands.”

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.
93% of sitters in Tamaqua 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 Tamaqua 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 Tamaqua.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Tamaqua 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.
