“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.”
“Lindsey and her family took excellent care of our dog, Willow for a 1 week stay. We received daily photos and comments of how her trip was going, which made us feel in the loop while we missed our girl. Would recommend to others who need a safe, loving home for their dog.”
“Cheryl is impossibly lovely. Our dog is a nervous boarder - he often struggles the first few days. But he didn't spend a single night in his crate while in Cheryl's care. She was super flexible with the start and end time of our stay and clearly gave our pupper a second home while we were away. We couldn't ask for a better experience.”
“Christi was fantastic! We were worried about leaving our senior dog for a couple nights during our vacation and Christi had a very warm and welcoming home for our girl. She fell in love with them and wasn’t stressed like she would have been at a dog kennel. I would recommend her over and over again and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Emily and Patrick were wonderful! From the beginning, they were asking thoughtful questions about Ruby's needs, routine, and personality. Their dog, Eli, became a new fur friend to our pup, Ruby and the photos and videos they shared while we were away gave us peace of mind. They were also accommodating as we had to change our drop off and pick up times. We will definitely be booking them again!”
“Melissa and her family are simply wonderful. Our girls had the time of their lives. The yard is great and fully fenced, the family dogs are incredibly sweet, and everyone pitches in to care for the pets staying with them. We got regular updates throughout our trip, which made all the difference. Leaving our girls is never easy, but knowing they’re with their family makes it effortless.”
“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.”
“Can’t recommend Michael enough! He makes drop off/pickup a breeze and can be very accommodating to changing schedules. Michael’s place is a wonderful place for Harvey to hang out for vacations/weekend trips and Michael’s daily check in videos give you piece of mind and a bit of a chuckle! Best dog sitter in the PGH area.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, from young puppies to adult dogs. I administer medication to my own friendly dog twice a day, so I’m comfortable incorporating medication schedules into a dog’s daily routine. I’ve also cared for an 8-week-old puppy for an extended three weeks while the parents were international, which gave me experience with the extra attention, patience, supervision, and consistency that young puppies need. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love while making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable. I can also walk dogs together when their temperaments, leash manners, and walking needs are a good match. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Since I’m home most of the time, I can give your pets plenty of attention and help keep them on their normal routines. My son has a few evening activities that typically last about an hour, but otherwise, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs. I love being able to provide pets with dependable, loving care and make sure they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting them in their own home, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for drop-in visits to check on pets, provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer medications when needed, and offer playtime, companionship, and cuddles. In my home, I have a friendly, animal-loving dog who enjoys having company. I keep plenty of toys and treats on hand to keep pets happy and entertained, and I can provide a crate or a separate room if a pet needs their own quiet space. I also have a yard with a dog-run tether for supervised outdoor time. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medication, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own!
“Our pup, 3.5yr old had the best week vacation with Sarah and her family. All photos shared showed Chloe enjoying loads of love and stimulation. She came home happy & her usual self. Sarah was great to connect with regarding drop off & pick up times. Very friendly and professional and I could tell she incorporated Chloe into her household, taking her on errands, etc. I will definitely keep her in mind for our next trip. Thanks so much!”
“Victoria is wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family for more than a weekend and she made us so comfortable. She sent twice daily updates with how he was doing along with pictures and videos. Franklin can be slow to warm up in a new place and often won't eat for the first day or two but he was completely fine there and ate all meals each day! We have used her again since and have had a similar experience. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and compassionate pet-sitter.”
“The communication before and during the stay was excellent. It was the first time Nelia kept my pet and I received an update on the first night that Princess was adapting well: it was comforting to know it was going well. Upon pickup Nelia shared some specifics about my pet's stay and all of my pets things were together and orderly. Both the drop off and pickup was smooth. Thanks Nelia and I will definitely use your services again!”
“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!”
About: I'm a huge animal lover - big and small! I've had dogs and cats my whole life. We have a sweet cat who absolutely loves every dog that comes through our home. We currently have a Great Dane and Great Pyrenees as well as chickens, 1 guinea pig, 2 rabbits and fish. I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them. After doing much research and lots of experience, I've learned a lot about a dog's language and how to respect them. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will love on them just the same. I can't wait to meet your fur-babies! Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around. I can easily crate if need be as well.
“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.”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years, from walking and feeding to overnight stays. I often pet-sit for friends when they travel, and I've also rescued and nursed several stray dogs back to health. Every dog I care for is treated with the same love and attention as my own. I work from home full-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I'm able to walk, feed, and spend time with dogs throughout the day, not just during set hours. Weekends and evenings are open for boarding as well. I provide a calm, clean, and secure indoor environment for boarding dogs. Each dog gets a comfortable resting area, and I take them out for regular walks and bathroom breaks. Safety is always my top priority. I never leave dogs unsupervised in unfamiliar or hazardous situations.
“My dog Thusnelda had a great stay with Lucas and his family. Their lovely home has plenty of space for running around and play. And their dog is also very sweet. Thanks, Lucas!”
“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”

Michelle and her son watched our elderly Shelby for the weekend and had never left her alone with anyone before. They were both incredibly kind and loving and made sure to keep us updated while we were gone. They send plenty of pictures to put at us ease. When we picked her up, our dog didn’t want to leave and seemed very happy. I am very thankfor to have met Michelle and her son, and will be using them in the future! Highly, highly recommend!!
Karly was absolutely wonderful to our boy Geo while he was boarded. It was our first time away from him since we adopted him last year and her confidence and experience with many different breeds gave us such comfort. He was comfortable immediately in her home and the pictures the we received showed it. What a gift it was for us to go away one last time before our baby arrives. Thank you Karly!
Silvana took amazing care of our dog, Lilah for a week and we are so happy to have chosen her to watch our puppy. She sent us daily pictures of Lilah, took her on walks, hikes, and fun outings. Silvana was flexible with our schedule, and her own work schedule was flexible enough to care for our young dog who has not mastered being home alone for more than 5 hours yet. We are super grateful and will book with Silvana again in the near future.

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Warrendale 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 Warrendale 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 Warrendale.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Warrendale. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Warrendale 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
