“I had a great experience with Jo-Ellen! My dog was very well taken care of. She was very happy to be in a home with another dog her size. I got pictures and updates throughout the entire weekend. And Jo-Ellen is just such a kind person. Will absolutely use in the future!”
“Molly is extremely sweet and easy to work with. From setting up a meet and greet to answering all of my questions she made the process of leaving my fur baby in her care seamless. Our family is excited to have found a trusted person we can leave our pup with during our absence!! Max is looking forward to his next stay with you.”
“Such an amazing sitter. She kept me updated the entire time with videos and pictures. She was incredibly communicative and even treated a sore that she got during her stay. We would ABSOLUTELY use her again!”
“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!”
“Tania was amazing and my pet Daisy liked her very much . She sent daily updates and took my girl on long walks which she loves . When picking her up I saw her tail going nuts and that showed how much my pet liked her. She in fact offered her a toy that Daisy picked up when she was in her care . Thank you very much for the affection you showed towards my girl.”

“This is the second time that Kenzie stayed with Kathy and we plan to have her return in the future. Kathy is super nice, very flexible with the drop off and pick up times, really cares about the dogs and has a great space for them.”
About: I have experience training puppies and working with senior dogs. I also have volunteered at my local vets office! I would love to spend time taking care of your pet. I work full-time but part time from home. I am also able to leave work on my breaks. I spend my evenings at home or going on walks. I hope you will give me the opportunity to care for your pet! I’m working full time but part time in office. Evening drop off/pick ups would work best. My husband also works Monday - Friday but if I am in office I can spend time at home on my breaks! I would give pets the free rein of my first floor with a crate option. We also have a fenced in yard for them to enjoy!

“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“We are so lucky we found Jim! He is so good with our black lab and I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy puppy sitter! He sends you daily photos of your pet and you know he gives them a lot of attention! This is our second booking and we will definitely be booking with Jim anytime we need a puppy sitter!”
“Anna was the perfect match for our dog. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous. Anna communicated throughout the entire stay and kept us updated with pictures. Our pup was loved and cared for as if she was part of Anna’s family. We are so thankful for Anna and would recommend for others.”
“Absolutely wonderful pet care! Tanya and David were extremely accommodating to our two large dogs (rottweiler, belgian malinois). They have specialized diets that werent an issue and we received updates throughout our entire trip. You could tell they really care about your fur buddy just as much as you do. Definitely will be rebooking in the future.”
About: I’ve owned a variety of pets (turtles, dogs, cats, ducks, geese) for 35 years, & watched neighbors’ pets, caring, playing with, loving every minute! My husband (my high school sweetheart) and I live on our adorable 200 year old, 43 acre farm with trails to walk on, a large pond, several yards and fields to run in, and the coziest, clean farm house where there’s always a comfy spot to curl up in or a room to roam or play in. We 2 have older sons, one at Coastal Carolina University and one who lives at home while working day and night on his Landscape Business. I have experience with senior dogs and cats, puppies and kittens. Our senior dog of 18 and our senior cat of 17 passed away last year, so we decided that it is now time to spread our love to new pets by opening our home up to new families. I have my masters degree in Speech Pathology, and I have worked with children for over 25 years, with my specific focus on young, special needs children. I take that experience along with me when I watch pets, always caring, fun, kind and compassionate. I am detail oriented, dedicated, playful, and I don’t give a spill or mess a second thought. I just take care of it and all problems easily. I am energetic and love walking/ hiking daily. We will provide outside fun time, can go for walks, ect.

We will treat your pets as our own, caring, compassionate, fun, play, walk, clean up after, provide medicine if needed or treat any special need.
“This was our dog’s first time with Lynnea, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. Our dog was well-cared for, and communication was frequent and meaningful. We appreciated all of the photos and videos Lynnea sent us while we were away. We will definitely use her as our sitter in the future!”
“Thank you so much for watching Finn! He was absolutely exhausted coming home after playing all day at your place. We’re glad he was a good boy and had so much fun playing with the other dogs.”
“Melody took excellent care of our Ziggy! Ziggy was very hapoy hanging out with Melody. Ziggy is content to have interesting walks, to eat all her food and snacks and to sleep. Melody did well with all of that. I would highly recommend her. 🙂”

Brenda was fantastic! From the moment I left my dog there she made him feel at home and made me feel at ease leaving him with her! She sent me tons of photos to let me know how he was doing and what they were up to. I could tell that my dog was very happy and relaxed around her. This was by far the best dog sitting experience I have had yet!! Thank you Brenda. You will definitely be seeing me and Enzo again 😊
Absolutely satisfied with Mollie! She helped me out with my two pups for a week. I had to go to urgent care before dropping them off and was going to be late and had a car issue before picking them up. She accomidated me both times and was great about it. She took great care of both of them, sent updates and pictures, I couldn't ask for more. I highly recommend Mollie to anyone who cares about their pets and wants to feel at ease leaving them. Thank you, Mollie!
I had a great experience with Jo-Ellen! My dog was very well taken care of. She was very happy to be in a home with another dog her size. I got pictures and updates throughout the entire weekend. And Jo-Ellen is just such a kind person. Will absolutely use in the future!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Whitfield 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 Whitfield 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 Whitfield.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Whitfield. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Whitfield 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
