“Had a great experience with Meagen watching our dog for a night. From the video she sent he appeared to settle in quickly and had a good time with the other dogs - there are lots of playmates! Meagan has a great, safe space for dogs to roam and play. When I picked him up he was happy and well-cared for. Would recommend and use Meagen again!”
“Oh my goodness!!! We can't possibly say enough good things about Megan and Vitaliy!! What a wonderful and truly caring couple! They treated our pup Maltese Sparky like he was their own and even had two small dogs for him to play with so he was like their long lost puppy cousin 🤣🥰 They were so sweet and responsive, constantly sending pictures and so quick to reply. We felt so comfortable with them watching him!! We couldn't have been more grateful for their kindness! I would recommend them 100 times over to anyone! 100 stars 🌟 🩷🌟🩷🌟🩷🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Avery is amazing! Truly. She watched out pup at her home for a week while we were on vacation. Everything went beyond smoothly and our pup had the time of her life. It’s like she got a vacation too. Avery gave her so much love and attention. She is also an excellent communicator! We got photos and updates everyday. We are so grateful to her!!”
“Matt is so attentive and does a great job taking care of our pup (who has cancer and special needs). Matt goes above and beyond making our pup feel comfy and judging from our pups disposition after we pick him up, he has a great time with Matt. No signs of stress and separation anxiety. We are grateful for Matt’s help with our pup!”
“We left our puppy for the first time and Brian was great with her/us. He was very communicative and sent us several pictures on her overnight stay which was appreciated on our first night away from her. She also saw snow for the first time while there and Brian videoed it and sent it to us which we really appreciated. Lawson was well cared for and had a great time playing with Brian's dogs.”
About: I have had pets in my home since I was born, and currently have a 15-year-old and a 14-year-old back at home with my mom now. I fostered a pup from ACCT Philly for a few months, volunteered at the Humane Society, and often dog-sit for friends/ family. I have class every day for 1-3 hours, but I am open anytime outside of my class hours and have a super flexible, accommodating schedule. I follow their request and expectation for how their dog is to be treated and cared for, while giving them appropriate attention and exercise. I ensure I am present to care for the dog and ensure all their needs are met.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life and truly adore them all. Whether they are big, small, furry, or fluffy! I’m experienced and comfortable with both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I share my home with one sweet standard poodle and two lovable cats who are my whole heart. Whether it’s dog walking, drop in visits, or house sitting, I’m here to provide your pet with lots of love, care, and attention like they are my own! I am a college student who has a pretty flexible schedule. I love to do this kind of work while being a student because it provides me with more flexibility. Whether it’s in my home or yours, my goal is to make your pets as comfortable and happy as possible. I will follow your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules and walks, to playtime and cuddles! I also want parents to feel as comfortable as possible! I love to provide pictures and updates so you can relax while away.
“Lorraine took excellent care of our CavaPoo while we attended a family reunion out of state. It made us feel great to know Bailey was in such capable and nurturing hands. Lorraine sent frequent pictures and updates. Her home is safe, cozy and inviting. We will definitely book with Lorraine whenever we can!!!”
“Barbara was amazing, she was able to take Lucy due to a family emergency and did such a wonderful job! Pictures every day of Lucy going on walks and snuggling with her family were very comforting. I am and will continue to be a repeat customer!”
“Tielian and her family are so lovely! They were so sweet to our pups and took such good care of them. We received photos almost everyday while we were away for almost 2 weeks. We’d recommend them to anyone looking for a a safe and loving home to leave their dogs.”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful taking care of our dog, Nyla. Nyla came home happy, healthy, and tired out from all the fun! We will definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend!”
“A incredible experience - thanks a lot for your services. I was being informed about the play time, food & everything was perfectly managed. Thank you Richard.”
“Alexa is wonderful! Truly one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had. She’s kind and treated our Snowy as if she was her own! I felt very confident the entire trip knowing that S was under her care! I’d definitely recommend her to others!”
“Dolly was wonderful with our two pups, gave frequent updates, sent photos and was willing to accommodate our last minute request as a possible extension of stay! Highly recommend!!”
“Emily and Christine were fantastic. Our dog had a great time and was very well taken care of. Birdie seemed to really like them and their dog, Lilo. We will definitely book them again in the future.”
“We had a great experience. Sadie was loved by the family and got snuggles and play time. She came home tired which was a plus. Daily update pics was so nice to recieve. Highly recommend Neetika! She takes good care of your pet!”
“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Chester
We had a wonderful experience with Avery! She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when we needed to add a second night to the stay on short notice. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog, Lola, was safe, happy, and well cared for—Avery even mentioned she would miss her! We highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again.
Leigh was great! She accepted the booking of our Scooby, who has some medical issues, with only a few weeks notice when another sitter on Rover had to cancel. She sent multiple photos and updates each day and was responsive to our requests. Scooby had a great time playing with Leigh's golden retriever, Scarlet, and I've never seen him look happier in the photos she sent. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Leigh again in the future.
This was my first time boarding my dog Lulu with Ami and James. Ami and James are great communicators and kept me posted on Lulu's walks, sleep, eating habits and provided lots of pictures. A few days into her stay, Lulu started with bloody stools/diarrhea. They were quick to let me know and ask what I thought would help. After a day or two, her condition did not improve, and we made arrangements for her to see her vet. Ami took her over the next morning and kept me posted on the recommendations which were low fat food and probiotics that could be purchased at the vet clinic. Ami and James followed all of the doctor's instructions to the letter, and kept me posted on Lulu's progress which was pretty quick. I could not ask for better care than what was provided by Ami and James and was able to enjoy the rest of my vacation knowing that Lulu was in good hands.
Reliable, kind, and communicative.Emma went above and beyond, The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job and her furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. We were gone for almost a week and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was there taking care of and giving the best of care to my dog.Will definitely book again!😍
Melina took great care of my pup Riley! I needed someone very last minute for an entire week when my original pet care fell through. She responded quickly and I was able to get it figured out. She communicated great, sent updates every day, and I could tell Riley had a great time. Will be using her again in the future!
Kayla is the best!! We needed someone to watch our puppy, and she was so professional, warm, and friendly. As new puppy parents, leaving him with someone new was very frightening, but Kayla made us feel comfortable and safe, knowing our puppy was in great hands. He LOVES her and bonded with her immediately. It’s amazing to know he has another home with Kayla, and we will definitely book her again.
We were very happy with Beau’s 2-week “staycation” with Meghan. She understood what he needs in terms of affection, play time, and exercise and made sure all his needs were met. Beau has little interest in other dogs, in general, but he and her dog definitely bonded during his stay. We highly, highly recommend Meghan as a dog sitter.

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 West Chester 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 West Chester 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 West Chester.
<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 West Chester 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.
