“Megan and her family gave both of our pups the best company while we were away on vacation! They came home exhausted from all the playing and fun they had! She made it really easy to contact her and gave us updates throughout the week which eased our nerves of being away from them! Thanks again Megan!!”
“Michael was amazing! He kept us posted on Shaani’s Activity multiple times a day. He took great care of her like one of his own dogs. Asked plenty of questions to make sure my dog was well cared for including her meds. We would certainly board her again with Mike.”
“Bella is usually stressed whenever she stays away from home but she was fine when home She is easy to care for because she spends most of her time resting in the warmest place she can find but I appreciate the extra care to get her to eat”
“I can’t say enough good things about Marlies stay. Tons of communication and pictures. Lots of great buddies to play with. She was so well taken care of. It is wonderful not to have to worry when we are away. We are repeat customers and will book for future vacations. I can’t thank you enough !”
“Emanuel and family are amazing! He's watched my babies 2x now, the love and care he gives our furbabies is heartwarming. Makes me feel so comfortable with leaving them for a vacation because I know they'll be in good hands. He is amazing with communicating and updating with pictures on a daily basis. I would give him 10 stars if I could. I highly recommend Emanuel! 😊”
“Scott was very communicative and easy going. Benny came back happy and tired from all the exercise Scott was able to give him. We will definitely book with him again!”
“Laura and her family were absolutely amazing to my coco. I went out of state on vacation and often missed coco, but could always go back to the pictures and updates we’d receive throughout the trip. We did a meet and greet before hand and Laura’s dog Harley was very friendly and excited to see both of us. Laura and her family are the best and I’m happy we were able to find them.”
“George was excellent with my dog Mojo. Mojo is a very timid dog and George was perfect for him. He would regularly send us videos and Mojo was happy and having so much fun. George is great and I would recommend him for anyone.”

When your pets are with me, you can expect regular updates, daily photos, and peace of mind knowing they are receiving true family-style care while you’re away I am small business owner I mainly work for home and i have plenty of time to play with you pets. I am available all day every day to take care of your pets. I live very close to dog parks and walking trails so there wont be any shortage of outdoor activities and I have ample of room at home home for the zoomies.
“So my dog stayed for the first time this past weekend. He was well taken care of and I got daily photos and updates on him. I already booked another boarding with her for both of my dogs. I love the pick up and drop off service. It’s so convenient when you’re traveling to not have to worry about dropping your pets off or picking them up after a vacation. This is a great addition to her services.”
“Riley was wonderful to work with. So accommodating and she was wonderful sending me pictures of Luna the whole time we were away making us feel very comfortable. Definitely will use her again!!”
“Tiffany was great! She had a huge backyard my doggo could run all around in. She sent lots of pictures of my dog and they clearly showed my dog enjoying herself. She was very communicative and quick to respond. Would highly recommend her and hope to book with her in the future!”
“Cassandra was OUTSTANDING! I cannot recommend her enough. She cared for my pups while I was on vacation and they were so loved! She sent pictures, snuggled them, and was so calm when any issues came up! She is wonderful!”
“Renata and family were very welcoming to Loki. She took the time to set up a one on one meet and greet prior to committing to boarding him. On his first day he was very shy, but quickly warmed up. We received many happy dog pictures during his stay!”
“Pam is kind, compassionate, and took great care of my pups. I was very worried about them but she went out of her way to help in any way she could. I strongly recommend Pam if you are looking for one of the best sitters in the area!!!”

“Kimberle was fantastic with our 2 dogs. This was their first stay away from home and she treated them as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to soothe their nerves and provide a comfortable environment for them. Would recommend highly!”
“Kathy was awesome. Her setup was clean and warm. My Chihuahua isn't fond of many people, but warmed up to Kathy right away. She was very accomodating to my schedule and I felt totally at ease with my "baby" being in her care. Will definitely be requesting her services in the future.”

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 West Penn 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 West Penn.
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 West Penn 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 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.
