“Maria and her husband did a great job taking care of Munch. They kept me updated regularly with adorable photos of Munch enjoying their company, the company of their dogs, and their large, fenced yard. I would use them again without hesitation.”
“Jessica was great! She sent a lot of pictures during my dog's stay with her while my family was on a week of vacation. This relieved our family of concern about our dog's well being and we were able to fully enjoy our vacation. We will definitely use Jessica's services whenever the next overnight family outing comes up! Thank you Jessica and thanks Rover! GREAT SERVICE!”
“Krista was great. She sent us updates and photos throughout the week to let us know how things were going. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Laura and her husband's love for dogs shines through in everything they do. They truly treated my dog as if it was their own. My pup had a minor medical issue (nothing to do with their care) and they made sure he got prompt care and expertly administered his medication. I loved the frequent photo and video updates. They rival some of the professional photos I've had taken! Will use again!”
“Thank you Stacey for taking my little monsters on such short notice! They seem to have had a great time while visiting you at the farm! Stacey communicated regularly and sent pictures of the poochies because she knew I was missing them!! Highly recommend!! Stacey is great with dogs - I have a very unruly German Shepherd and she was able to control her. She's a natural!”
“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.”
“Coralee and her family welcomed Baxter and he loved being there. I was concerned because Baxter has a health issue that he has to get pill 3 times a day and I was worried that he wouldn't take them but Coralee said he took them like a champ. I would highly recommend Coralee”
“We left our mini schnauzer in the BEST care for our 2 week trip away. Andrew, Karen, and Finn were the best hosts to our boy. We received many daily updates of photos/videos of Moose having the best time playing with Finn. They were always so quick to respond to any messages we sent. When we picked up Moose, he was clean and brushed. I’m one of those crazy dog moms and am 10000% happy with how Moose was taken care of! Thank you so much Andrew and Karen!”
“Sarah was an incredible host and I will be booking again! I feel incredibly grateful that my two dogs were in her care- they were happy, healthy, and safe during the visit. They had many long walks and outdoor time and Sarah was very communicative with lots of pictures and updates.”
“Mary and family were the best. She treated Sullivan as one of her own, sent pictures, and was super responsive with messages. She went above and beyond to make Sullivan feel at home by allowing him to "rest" on furniture, taking him for several walks a day, and even taking him to a baseball game. I just hope she will have him back :).”
“Lindsay and her family are amazing! They took great care of my dog while on vacation. Daily I received pictures and updates. Communication was outstanding. Will definitely book again!”
“Emily and Patrick are absolutely incredible! They took such wonderful care of my girl Bunny. When my trip was unexpectedly extended due to a flight cancellation, they were so flexible and accommodating. Throughout the weekend they kept me updated with photos and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t be more grateful — thank you both so much!”
“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.”
“Sharon is wonderful!! She met with us first to make sure our dog and her were both comfortable. While watching him she made sure to send us updates and photos. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Beatriz always does an amazing job! She is so sweet and caring and my dog is always so happy when I come pick her up. I can tell she takes amazing care of the dogs in her care and my dog has even started getting excited when we pull up to her house. She is so responsive and always sends the cutest pictures and videos of my dog while I’m gone! She’s truly the best and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, she will treat your pet like her own!”
“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.”

Sarah did a wonderful job watching my dog remmy! Would definitely book with her again. He was with her for two nights and had a great time and came home happy as can be. Really good communication while he was with her as well sending pics throughout the day. Would recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Tarentum
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 866 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 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.
88% of sitters in Tarentum 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 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.
<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 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.
