“Christin was great with our dog! She kept us updated throughout the say with how he was doing and you could tell how much she enjoyed being with him even with some of his quirks!”
“Deena is extremely caring, precise, responsive and communicative. She accommodated last minute changes and took great care of my furry friend. 100% recommend!”
“Erika was a wonderful choice to watch our senior dog! Not only was she great with S'mores, but she was very responsive and easy to work with. Specifically, when we asked to set up a meet and greet before S'mores' stay, we appreciated Erika's suggestion to meet at her house so S'mores could familiarize herself with the place beforehand. While we were away, Erika sent updates and photos everyday. It turned out S'mores needed to take antibiotics during her stay, and Erika was unfazed by this and said administration was no problem. S'mores was very comfortable with Erika, we would definitely have her watch S'mores again!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Christine. She is incredibly experienced and truly cared for our good boy Franklin. She provided regular updates, which I really appreciated, and it was clear my dog was comfortable and happy in her care. I also love that she doesn’t have young children or other pets, and her yard provided a great space for Franklin to play and relax. Highly recommend—she’s reliable, attentive, and a true dog lover!”

Ok so I was nervous leaving my pups with someone new. Dana eased those fears quickly! She took such great care of my girls and she sent me pics and updates my whole time away! My Covid pup even met herself a little boyfriend 🤣. I highly recommend Dana as she treated my girls as her own and she will truly give you peace of mind. She will definitely be seeing my pups again!
Christine was a great caretaker for our deaf 11 year old hound mix over a long weekend. Christine helped Georgia settle in to unfamiliar surroundings. She is warm and comforting and clearly has lots of experience with and loves dogs. We will use her again without hesitation.
We have greatly benefited from having Jennifer S. provide Boarding services for our two Australian Labradoodles. She delivered outstanding care for our furry children, including regular walks and playing fetch with a ball, as she is extremely thorough and meticulous in meeting all of their needs. All of the members of her family create a warm and loving environment in which our pets are always relaxed and thriving. We loved receiving daily photos of our pooches looking happy, resting peacefully, and enjoying time outdoors. Accordingly, we highly and unreservedly recommend Jennifer S. for all your Boarding and Doggy Day Care needs.
Scott was wonderful and my dog had the best time with him and his posse of dogs! The other dogs he was watching at the time were very friendly and Scott did a great job introducing them and making sure they were comfortable together. He sent lots of pics during the stay and I know my dog had unbelievable attention, exercise and love! We can’t wait to go away again so we can send Hoagie to his new favorite place!
This was my first time ever using this service, so of course I was a little nervous at first! Deseree made it so easy! everything went so smoothly! she took such great cate of my puppy Kane while I was out of town! she filled me in daily with pictures! she took Kane on multiple daily walks he was such a happy boy when I picked him up! I cant thank her enough! I will definitely rebook with her over and over again!
I had no doubt upon our first meeting that Dakota would have a very comfortable loving stay with Chrissy. She sent a ton of pictures and videos along the way, which was super nice to get while traveling so far away! I can’t wait for Chrissy and Dakota to hang out again! No
Marci is the best! She’s so kind, gentle, and was amazing with my cats. I truly felt so secure and at peace knowing she was watching my babies. She’s communicative, careful with your cats, and treats them as your own. She’s also really knowledgeable. I know my cats felt safe and happy being in her care. I couldn’t have asked for someone better to watch my cats. If you’re looking for a safe sitter, and a safe space, I highly recommend Marci!
Tara took good care of my boy for 5 days. He doesnt take to everyone and it had been 2 years since the last time he needed a sitter so Tara allowed 2 meet and greets to make sure it was a good fit. She eased my mind with updates and pics and shared that he followed her around so I knew he took to her. He was in happy spirits when I picked him up. I could tell it was a good stay for him which made me very happy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 3,422 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Upper Darby. About 90% of Upper Darby sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
