“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
“Our Bernedoodle, Rosie, had an absolutely wonderful stay with Maria! She has the ideal home and yard that kept our puppy very happy and content. We received updates and many photos every day that really made us feel that Rosie was getting excellent care and gave us great peace of mind. When we brought Rosie home, she was as happy and calm as when we dropped her off. We will 100% use Maria from now on!!!”
“Jessica is great! I was in town briefly for work and she took my dog in like she was one of her own! She has a great backyard space for the dogs to play around in. She’s very responsive and sends many updates throughout the stay. Would definitely recommend her.”
“I can confidently give Coralee my utmost recommendation as an outstanding caretaker. Coralee and her family were absolutely incredible throughout the boarding process. They took our dog, Duke, in over the holidays as another member of their family. Coralee was responsive and sent updates which allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing Duke was happy. We will absolutely be booking with Coralee in the future, and I will be recommending her to our friends and family!”
“Lindsay and her family were wonderful and accommodating. They were also very flexible with my pickup time. They and their dog Murphy took great care of Sadie. I will certainly use Lindsay again to take care of Sadie next time I’m in the area. I highly recommend.”
“Poppy was so well cared for during her stay with Natasha and her family. I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care and know she got lots of love and attention! I think her and Pluto were good buddies and I'm happy she had another pup to play with during her stay. Natasha also takes the cutest pup pictures and I loved getting updated while I was gone. I always felt Poppy was safe during her stay and am glad she was in such a nice, dog-loving, caring home. I would definitely recommend Natasha for boarding and would book with her again! Thank you Natasha & family for the excellent experience!”
“Laura made Willow feel right at home from the start! And Laura made us feel comfortable right from the start with all of the photos/texts she shared. Couldn't have been happier with Willow's care.”
“Stacey is fantastic. Her experience is evident in her calm and professional manner from the start. I felt very comfortable leaving my shepherd mix for a week knowing he would have plenty of room to run and the added benefit of other large dogs to play with. My dog can be reactive on a leash and at first meeting new people and Stacey handled him very well - calmly and with no apprehensions. She sent photos periodically during his stay and was very easy to communicate with. I will definitely use her again and will highly endorse her services.”
“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”
“Carol and her whole crew of pups are wonderful! She took to my two pups like they were her own! We could relax on our vacation knowing they were in the best hands. Thank you!!”
“Left our Cavapoo of 21 months old with Andrew & Karen for a first time away from home boarding for 7 days, 6 nights. They were wonderful with him showing care 'n cuddles immediately. Andrew provided updates & photos/videos daily which eased our concerns. Did everything they said they would following Quincey's routine. Slow socialization w/their dog Finn was nicely provided & slowly helped our dog get to know others. Walks together was great to see. Laid back and easy to work with as petsitters. Appreciated them both accepting our dog into their home as one of their own. Would definitely recommend them as petsitters & will be happy to book again in the future. Thanks again Andrew & Karen!”
“Victoria was absolutely wonderful to work with. She sent pictures and videos of our dog and my son's cat every day during our vacation. Both were happy to see us when we picked them up and it was obvious they were well cared for. VIctoria was immensely patient with our Irish Setter puppy who has lots of energy and my son's cat who is a recluse. 100% will be using her again for out of town trips!”
“Steve was amazing with our dog, Winnie. This was our first trip without her, and without Steve, I definitely would’ve been worrying about her and how she was doing. Instead, we got daily updates showing Winnie living her absolute best life and getting completely spoiled. Honestly, our only concern by the end was whether she’d want to come home. Steve is clearly an animal lover and just a cool person. If you want your dog to have an awesome vacation of their own, book with Steve.”
“Beatriz is always the best out there! I trust her more with my dog than anyone else, and my dog always comes back so happy and well taken care of. So thankful for her, she is a blessing to all dog owners!”
“Our dog loves going to Emily & Patrick's! He started wagging his tail the moment we got there this last time. It makes vacation so relaxing to know he is so happy and well cared for at their place.”
“My dog had a wonderful stay with Vivian. She made sure to send pics and updates during his stay. We will definitely book with her in the future. Thanks for watching Rusty!”
“My booking request was super last minute because my previous arrangements fell through, and Augusta was originally not available but reached back out to me later on to tell me she would be able to if I still needed it which I greatly appreciated! She was great with Bobble and communicated very regularly about how he was doing!”
“Annette was lovely and caring to both Gustavo and me. Delays in flights meant I was 7 hours late in getting to Gus. Annette graciously dealt with this inconvenience. She was always quick to respond to communications. Most importantly, Gus clearly felt at home and welcomed from the minute she greeted him. When I picked him up, he was clearly comfortable with Annette. Thank you.”
“Athena was very happy when I picked her up, It was like she was on vacation while I was gone. I will definitely be having Adrienne watch Athena again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 860 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Tarentum. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
88% of Tarentum sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Tarentum landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tarentum 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 Tarentum.
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 Tarentum 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.
