“Great experience boarding my dog for a long weekend, and would definitely book again! Appreciated the photo updates and flexibility with pickup/dropoff. I know my dog was well cared for and had a great time.”
“Nicholas was able to accommodate my very last minute booking, handling pickup and drop off with no issues and kept me fully up to date! Milo returned from his care in much better spirits than he has with other sitters or boarding experiences. Will absolutely book again!!”

About: Hi there! I absolutely love dogs and have been around them my entire life—from family dogs and friends’ pups to volunteering at local shelters. I currently don’t have a dog of my own, so dog walking and pet sitting is the perfect way for me to get my puppy fix! I’ll treat your pup like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and cuddles. 🐾 I currently work from home and live an active lifestyle, so I love getting outside for a long afternoon walk. I would absolutely love to have your pup join me! Whether they need a quick walk or some extra exercise and attention during the day, I’d be happy to give them plenty of love and company while you’re away. I currently don’t offer boarding or daycare in my own home. I prefer to take the time to get to know each dog and their demeanor first so I can make sure they feel comfortable and safe in my care. When caring for your pup in your home, I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I’ll keep them active with long walks, play with them, and give them plenty of love, attention, and comfort while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re gone.
“Sara was perfect. I booked her last minute for the first time and she did an amazing job caring for my dogs, one of which is a senior dog that needs special care. I was very anxious to leave her but Sara was very reassuring and communicated very well. She didn’t miss a beat giving my dog her medications and sent plenty of updates. When I picked my dogs up, I could just tell they were comfortable and had a great stay. Absolutely plan to use Sara again.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I currently have two Basset Hounds, ages 3 and 4, two 9-year-old pigs who are kept completely separate from the dogs, and a cat. I grew up with German Shepherds and reptiles, and over the years I’ve also had Great Danes, hamsters, ferrets, crayfish, and plenty of other animal friends. I’m comfortable with everything from big dogs to small animals, and I understand that every pet has their own routine, quirks, and comfort level. I know how hard it can be for pets when their people are away, so my biggest priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and as at home as possible. Whether that means lots of attention and playtime, a good walk, couch cuddles, or simply giving a more independent pet their space, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’ll treat your pets like I’d want someone to treat my ow, with patience, affection, and plenty of attention. 🐾 I am currently home all day and night most week days and some weekends. Your pets will be loved on constantly the entire time they are here. My two Bassets love having company and are always up for playing or cuddling. There’s plenty of couch space for dogs who like to snuggle, and they even have access to the bed—with stairs! I’m happy to accommodate both the social butterfly who wants to be part of everything and the dog who would rather have some space to relax. I don’t have a fully fenced-in yard, but I have plenty of yard space in a quiet neighborhood. There is a small, short fenced area directly off the porch with a patch of grass for quick potty breaks. Dogs can also be taken outside on a leash or tethered, depending on what they’re accustomed to and what their owner prefers. I’m also very accustomed to accidents in the house—one of my Bassets, Polly, has them regularly—so a dog who isn’t perfectly house-trained, has occasional accidents, or needs more frequent potty breaks is absolutely not a problem. I have an XL crate if that is something they prefer. My other Basset, Hank has bad anxiety and takes daily medications so that is not a problem either. Most importantly, I know being away from their people and usual surroundings can be stressful for pets. I want your dog to feel like they’re staying at a second home rather than just being boarded somewhere. I’ll do my best to stick to their routine, learn their quirks, give them plenty of attention, and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved until you’re back 🐾❤️
“Megan and her family were so welcoming to our two very energetic dogs. Our dogs were worn out as soon as we got in the car! We received lots of pictures and updates during our weekend away. So thankful to Megan and her family for taking good care of our pups!”
“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!”
“Dana was fantastic! She sent tons of photos keeping us updated all weekend, and our pup had a blast with her dog Cooper! She was also so understanding when we were running a little behind to pick up our dog due to traffic on our trip. Would highly recommend!!”
“We felt so comfortable and confident leaving Zoe with A.J. He is so very kind and knew how to take very good care of an older dog. AJ sent us pictures every day and we could see how happy and comfortable she was. We will be using AJ again!”
“Jack loved his visit! They were so good with him and provided updates and photos throughout the day. Their dogs Chowder and Regina are awesome, and my dog enjoyed spending time with them. Will definitely be using them for my next upcoming trips! 10/10”
“Choosing Tracie to care for our dog while we were away for two weeks was one of the best decisions we have ever made. She was extremely communicative and went above and beyond to make sure that our dog was happy and comfortable. She read all our notes on Rover ahead of time and was well versed during our meet and greet about our dog’s food and exercise routines. Throughout the two weeks, she made sure to keep to our dog’s routine as closely as possible, even going out to buy more of the specific food our dog needed when she ran out. Her dog, Link, is a sweetheart and was such a good companion to our dog. Her communication was thorough with many photos, videos, and maps of walking routes. I am so grateful for people like Tracie and her family and will not hesitate to book her again for our future needs.”
“Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to our one dog right before their stay. Debbie and Adam gave Cooper extra love the whole week since he was feeling sad and a little lonely. He always loves lounging with his friend Sadie too :)”
“Jessi was kind & caring! It was Camden's first time away from us since we've moved to the area, and Jessi very patiently helped her get settled. Camden came home a happy pup, and we look forward to seeing Jessi again.”

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 .
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.

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.
