“Chyann was amazing with my puppy Jude. He was 7 months old at the time of her having him. She kept me up to date with regular photos and updates. He was always happy and well cared for - which takes extra work with a pup his age. 10/10 would book again.”

“There is not enough good things I can say about the care that Juliana showed Meek. She is warm and friendly and Meek sensed it immediately and was comfortable in her care. I received updates and pictures of daily walks and time spent in her home. Juliana is so wonderful with communication that make you feel so comfortable that your pup is safe, having fun and in a happy home. We will definitely be using her again many times over. Thank you Juliana!!!”

About: I don't just watch dogs—I welcome them into my family. Every pup receives personalized attention, a safe environment, and lots of love while you're away. I work for the school system, so I have weekends, holidays, and summers off. My typical work hours are 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and my school is very close to home, which allows me to come home during my lunch breaks. I make it a priority not to leave the pups home alone for more than four hours at a time, so they get plenty of attention and care throughout the day. In addition, I keep 2 small dogs at a time but for the bigger ones I only will sit 1 dog for safety reasons 😊. Your dog will be welcomed into my home like family. I have a fully fenced yard, two friendly Shih-Poos who love making new friends, and a calm, loving environment. I'll follow your pet's routine, including feeding, medications, potty breaks, and any special instructions, so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you're away.

“Beth is an excellent dog host! Indiana was treated like a movie star and even went with Ottis to the dog park as an outing. I was updated several times a day with photos and a video. I have been using Rover.com for quite a while. You get to know when your dog has been at ease during the stay. I can say that Indiana came home very happy and enjoyed his stay. Beth is a great sitter and I highly recommend her!!!”

“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!”

This was our first time using Rover. Amy & Cathy were so nice and very helpful. We know our dog Ruby was well taken care of and enjoyed having other dogs around that made her feel like part of the pack. We just hope Ruby was good so they would watch her again if we needed. Thank you so much!

Cindy took excellent care of our dog Calvin over the weekend. He was clearly comfortable at Cindy's home from the pictures and communication we received throughout the stay. He came back happy and tired from all of the play and attention. We would gladly use Cindy's services again on future trips and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter.

Marissa was so sweet and helpful with my pups while I was away for business. I am always nervous when traveling and leaving my girls with anyone, but Marissa put my mind at ease. She sent photos to check in and let me know how they were doing, and my one one more nervous dog, Penelope, did NOT go on a hunger strike while I was away as she sometimes does--which speaks volumes about how comfortable she was while staying with her! I look forward to using her again when I travel. Thank you, Marissa!!

Stevie stayed with Patti for the second time and when we arrived to drop her off, she sprinted to the door…couldn’t get in to see Patti and her furry friends quick enough. I think that speaks volumes to the care and compassion that Patti provides! Stevie loves and we will continue to utilize when we need a sitter!!

HIGHLY recommend Jordyn! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We used her for boarding for a long weekend, and she was absolutely amazing with our little guy. He has separation anxiety, so leaving him can be stressful, but sometimes it just takes the right person to make him feel comfortable—and Jordyn was definitely that person! She was incredibly responsive and sent us pictures and updates throughout our entire vacation. In every picture, he looked SO happy, peaceful, and completely relaxed—not stressed or anxious at all. Seeing him so comfortable gave us such peace of mind and allowed us to actually enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. She was also extremely flexible with our pickup time when our flight kept getting delayed, which we appreciated more than she knows. Thank you so much, Jordyn, from the bottom of my heart for taking such amazing care of our little guy. We will absolutely be using you again! 🐶❤️

Alberta watched our 17.5 year old cockapoo for 2 weeks and took such great care of her. Our dog has some minor health issues and also requires diapers and Alberta had no problem taking care of that. She had great enthusiasm for watching senior dogs when we first met her and we felt like we were leaving our girl in excellent hands. We received updates throughout our trip and she was always timely when responding to our messages. We would definitely reach out to her first if we ever needed someone to watch our dog again. She was excellent and you should consider her when looking for a sitter.

Monique was available when I needed someone immediately. My regular sitter was away and I had a family emergency. Monique was wonderful. As Mina became acclimated to her, Skye, and their dog, she had a really good time over the Halloween holiday. Monique sent me pics of Mina in her Halloween costume that were really cute! Mina was well taken care of and I am hoping that Monique will be available again in the future. Thanks, Monique and Skye!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Welshire

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 Welshire home-away-from-home, 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 Welshire.

<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 Welshire 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 , 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 .

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 DE 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.
