Great sitter, kept us updated on our two dogs and how they were doing throughout their stay. Our dogs were well loved during their visit with Karen! Would highly recommend.

Margaret was wonderful with updates and pictures daily of our little Cooper. I think he was very comfortable with them and had several other playmates throughout his stay. She always let us know when there was a new dog there. Thank you Margaret.

Deanna was a great sitter for my Labrador. She was very responsive to all messages and easy to work with for the meet and greet, drop off and pick up times. She had a dog of her own and can tell she cares about my dog as if she was one of her own. I would recommend her to others in the area and will use her again if I need the services while I live in the area.

Emma was so great! She went out of her way to make sure my pups were comfortable, including two meet & greets beforehand! My pups had the best time and came home so happy and peaceful. They are actually less anxious than they’ve ever been, like they’ve forgotten to be worried about the front door all the time. So, yeah… Emma returned my pups to me better than I left them. There’s no higher praise than that!!

This was Wynnie’s second stay with Mary and we are just so grateful for her. It is so comforting know we are leaving our pup in great hands and she gets first class treatment while we are away. We really appreciate that Mary sends us pictures and updates each day. We really can’t say enough great things about Mary! Wynnie can’t wait for her next stay! Thank again Mary!

Chip was amazing on such short notice! He accommodated us at the very last minute when we had some dog sitter plans fall through and I’d say he’s nothing shy of an amazing sitter! After 10 days, our pup came back extremely happy! He is very thorough, attentive, and communicated well. I’ll definitely be booking Chip from now on for all of our dog sitting needs!

About: I have taken care of dogs from as small as a chihuahua to as big as a Great Dane! I have also have experience with older dogs who might need medication or a different routine than younger dogs. My top priority is to take care of your loved one as if it was my own. As a college student, my summertime schedule is very open. I can provide priority care towards your animals, and with my experience, I can give everyday care that can be suitable towards the needs of your animal. In my apartment, I currently own a feline friend. My cat is very playful and loves company. She also knows when another animal does not want to play and respects their wishes.

About: I’ll provide take their pet(s) on a 30 minute walk. Allow their pet(s) to get enough exercise. Provide food and water. I’ll also bathe their pet(s) if needed. I have open availability on weekends and sometimes during the weekdays. I really don’t have any special skills. I’m willing to get to know more about your pet(s). The only pet care experience that I have is from learning things about my own pet. I haven’t really pet sat in a while. I’m willing to learn more by pet sitting your pet(s). I look forward to meeting your pet(s) so that I can gain more experience. I understand that all dogs are not all the same which is why I would love to get more experience. It would help me learn more about your pet(s) and it’s needs.

I am so thankful for the care Jodie provided my girl! I received pictures and updates on my trip. Jodie was exceptionally flexible and kind enough to let me drop off early and pick up late- I’m so grateful! Scout can’t wait to see Harvey again :)

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Waterford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Waterford on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 62 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waterford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.
