“We were coming in from out of town and we were in a crunch to get a sitter for our dog, and we're so glad we found Stephanie! She took such good care of our dog and was incredibly responsive and communicative at every point of the process. We'll definitely book with her every time we're in Erie!”
“We were nervous to leave Harper. He had only been boarded with friends he knew. But Stephanie was great!!! She sent us pictures and videos and Harper loved it there. We would have Stephanie watch Harper again for sure!!!! We highly recommend her!”
“I was very nervous leaving my Lilly and Dunkin . Margaret put my mind at ease with sending pictures of them while I was on vacation. I would use her again without a doubt .”
“We are so incredibly grateful to Mary and her husband, Dana, for taking such wonderful care of our pup over the Fourth of July holiday. Leaving your dog while you’re away is never easy, but they gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. There was a heat wave during her stay, and we especially appreciated how thoughtful they were about keeping the weather in mind. Our corgi has a thick double coat and overheats easily, so it meant a lot that they adjusted her walks and activities to keep her safe and comfortable. It’s clear they genuinely care about the well-being of the dogs they watch. Wynnie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious she had a great time, and we know she’ll be excited to go back the next time! We can’t recommend Mary and Dana highly enough. If you’re looking for kind, attentive, and trustworthy people to care for your dog, look no further. Thank you both for taking such amazing care of Wynnie! ☺️”
“I couldn't ask for a better experience. This was my first time with a sitter that wasn't a family member. Nadine is a joy! She truly makes your pup a member of her family! If I need a sitter again, I will hope and pray she will be available!! THANK YOU Nadine!”
“Brett took care of our small senior Cocker Spaniel Shih Tzu mix. We felt he was well taken care of and enjoyed his stay. Brett communication was excellent before, during and after boarding. We recommend him and will book again.”
“Best Dog sitters in the world!! Great communication. So sweet. We loved both of you and we now have new groomers. I definitely recommend and we will only come here from now on. Thank you.”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life. My father used to train dogs so I’ve adopted these skills as my own by being very patient and nurturing with each animal I have the privilege of working with! I’m currently working part-time so I am available to care for your beloved pet just like one of my own. Looking forward to meeting more furry friend! I have an unfenced yard, but I do have a run line that I can utilize. I have a tie out in the front of my house as well and frequently take walks in my neighborhood. I can easily crate your pet if needed.
“This is the second time that Keely has kept Russ for us and we are so pleased with her care. She walks him and sends me pics everyday of their adventures. We will definitely be using Keely in the future!”
“Jennifer is top notch! My dogs were picked up happy and healthy! She took them on several walks and kept us updated with pictures. She is definitely dependable and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to leave them there again! Thanks Jennifer!”
“Margaret and her husband were amazing with Maverick. You can tell they are really knowledgeable and love animals. She sent regular updates with pics. Just a short trip right off of I79 to get to her house that has a big fenced in yard. I felt completely safe leaving my pup there. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have had a life time of experience of have pets in my life and care for them as a kid and into an adult. I love the fur babies, we currently have two boxers and a cat. I am able to do dog walks, house sitting, and drop ins at times as needed. Let me know if there are any special needs, meds, diet /directions i needed to follow in caring for your pet. I have given oral and injection meds to my own pets and is comfortable doing so. If there is a special routine that you have with your fur baby and would like to keep going while in my care feel free to make me aware of it to make the stay comfortable for them also. Also any schedule you have are welcome too. I generally go by what instruction that are giving by each owner. I have a large yard. It is current not fence in. I do have running cord for my pets so they can move freely round the yard with supervision. I also live near a dog park so daily walks are available. My dogs love car ride too, so those are also include in their stay if they are one who love to ride.

Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Waterford 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 Waterford.
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 Waterford 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.
