“Juliana was amazing with my 5mth old mini doxie puppy. Every thing is new to him, and I was nervous about leaving him for the wkd. She has the perfect home & yard and made him so comfortable, that I picked up a calm and happy puppy. I will absolutely take him back to stay with her.”

“Pico's over night stay with Emily & Christine couldn't have gone better. They gave us the option for a meet and greet which was super helpful to ease our minds about leaving our fur baby. They were communicative before and during his stay. We could tell from the pictures he had a blast. He made friends with Lilo, their pup, and their kiddos, and it sounds like he even got along nicely with their cat. The ultimate complement is that Pico was clearly sad to come home from his sleepover - just like our human kids after hanging out with one of their besties. We will 100% hire Emily & Christine again and sing their praises to everyone we know. Thank you!”

“We have a senior Shiba Inu with pretty bad separation anxiety as well as some arthritis issues. Boarding her has become more and more fraught these past couple years, which is why I was so excited to find Erin on Rover. When we had our meet and greet before going on vacation, our dog was legit disappointed when Erin left after 30 minutes! It was readily apparent that Erin has a genuine love for and knack with older dogs such that I knew she'd be perfect for our special needs doggo. Dropping our dog off before vacation is generally pretty stressful for all involved, but not with Erin--after spending 30 minutes getting our pupper settled, she was calm and not stressed about me leaving at all. That was a first! Erin was also very communicative while we were away. She provided loads of pictures and videos along with fun updates about how they were doing and any questions she had about our doggo's quirky behavior. Best of all, it was clear to me that Erin truly cared about our pup as much as we do. If I could give Erin more than five stars I would. We will definitely be sending our Pippa back to "Camp Erin" next time we're away!”

“Khaing took such good care of our beloved cat! As a first time Rover user, she was so helpful regarding processes on the booking itself, and of course how she would care for our Kitty. From her regular updates and photos, I can tell he had an absolutely delightful stay - and it was a vacation for him! Her set up is absolutely wonderful for a cat, with multiple cat trees and lots of engaging toys. Khaing is an excellent communicator, and a fantastic cat sitter with a big heart.”

About: I absolutely love animals and treat every pet like they are my own. I’m caring, dependable, patient, and enjoy giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages and personalities and will always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I am a teacher and I live a one minute walk from my school. I come home every day for lunch to let out dogs I am watching! After school I am home all night with the dog I am watching! I provide dog boarding in my home and treat every dog like part of the family. I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. I’m happy to follow their usual feeding and sleeping routines so they feel comfortable and at home. I also love sending photos and updates to their owners so they know their pup is happy, safe, and being well cared for!

It was my first time having to leave my dog, Max, with someone he did not know, and meeting Laura before going on my trip was very helpful. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She keeps you updated and answers questions promptly. Laura sent pictures and videos to show how Max was doing, which I really appreciated. If I need a sitter again I will definitely bring Max back to Laura, and I know he'll feel comfortable, and I will feel better about leaving him.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Waterville 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 Waterville.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Waterville 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.
