My dog is a bit of a sensitive soul and she had a wonderful time while I was away. I much appreciated getting photo and videos so I could see that she was comfortable and happy! I was also grateful for the feeding and sleeping updates. I could relax knowing that she was happy and well cared for! She will be back to hang with cooper and clover next time I have to travel!

This was our first time using Lorraine and Rover. We couldn't have found a better person to watch our senior pooch. From our first meeting, we felt our girl was in a safe healthy environment and Lorraine was a caring, reliable sitter. Over the 2 week stay, Lorraine sent updates and pictures showing a contended, happy pooch. We highly recommend Lorraine. A+

We could not have asked for a better sitter than Rita. She took excellent care of our dog Juno for 10 days, giving him plenty of love and attention. Her small dog Barley was the perfect playmate for Juno as they’re about the same size and age. Rita updated us with photos, videos, and messages giving us peace of mind that Juno was happy and being well cared for. Rita is friendly, easy to communicate with, and knowledgeable about dog behavior and care. We felt confident that Juno was in the hands of a responsible, professional sitter who not only watched after our dog, but willingly treated him as if he were part of her family, giving him lots of love, attention, and play. We will definitely hire Rita again for future trips.

My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!

We left our yorkie, Richie with Julia for over a week and Julia took great care of Richie, took him on regular long walks, shared pictures and videos of Richie and ensured that he ate well and kept him comfortable in her home. Thanks to Julia we were worry free about Richie on our vacation

Spencer was a wonderful dog sitter for our two pups, one who is easy going and one who is deaf and a little bit of a nervous Nelly and they both did great! Spencer was very communicative with us and offered to do a meet and greet ahead of our booking to ensure all parties felt comfortable. We will definitely be utilizing Spencer in the future.

We are so lucky to have Dani and Anthony care for our dog Sandy. Sandy, our 4 year labradoodle had an amazing time at Dani and Anthony’s. They took such good care of him and loved on Sandy for us while we were away. Dani and Anthony were so very prepared for Sandy’s stay with things we hadn’t even thought of. I loved that they even put an AirTag on his collar to ensure Sandy would be taken care of in the case of anything. Sandy got along very well with Layla and loved having a friend. They kept us well informed of how he was doing throughout the whole vacation with some pics... I know Sandy would love to visit again the next time we go away.

Shishir and his family took great care of Teddy just like we do at home. Even though our pickup was delayed until 2:00 AM, Shishir was very accommodating. Teddy was well fed, comfortable, and happy during his stay. The warm welcome from the kids helped Teddy settle in quickly, especially since he has some anxiety issues. Teddy also got along very well with their pet, it felt more like a fun play date for him. Overall, we are very happy with the care and attention Teddy received and would highly recommend Shishir and his family.

Megan and Vitaliy were great! We got pictures and updates everyday and they were very responsive. Our dogs loved their fenced in back yard to explore and play. They have plenty of dog beds and toys to play with. We will definitely rebook in the future.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Thorndale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 2,944 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Thorndale. 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.

95% of Thorndale 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 Thorndale 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 Thorndale 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 Thorndale.

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 Thorndale 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.
