“Picked up and dropped off my doggo which was so helpful with my trip otherwise having inconvenient times. Plenty of updates. My dog came back pooped which is always a good sign of a fun weekend for her!”
“Jessica was amazing with Anuka. I was nervous (Anuka’s mom) because this would be the first time Anuka would be separated from us (10 days). Jessica was very nice and allowed us to have a meet and greet before Anuka's stay at her house. She sent us pictures and updates daily of Anuka. She was so patient and help my baby Anuka to adjust to this transition. Anuka received a lot of attention and kindness from her. Jessica was very flexible with drop off/ pick up times. We highly recommend Jessica. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Michelle did a great job watching my dog, Pepper. She lives in a quiet neighborhood and has a large yard for dogs to run around in. I had peace of mind having her pet-sit Pepper for the weekend.”
“Kind, communicative, and reliable care. Bertie went into the house for the first time with a wagging tail and seemingly no anxiety (a first for my nervous pooch), and from the daily pics, it looked like she had a great time with the other dogs playing in the yard. We'll definitely be back!”
“Tia watched our dog, Izzy, for a week and we are so appreciative of her! We got photos and videos every day, many check ins to let us know Izzy was eating and acting normally. We got lots of videos of Izzy playing fetch and having a wonderful time with Tia and her family! We very much recommend Tia for any dog watching needs!”
“Valerie is top notch! She truly loves my dog Hershey and he is so happy with her. Hershey has medical needs and she follows my instructions exactly. Several walks per day, trips to the pet store and beyond. Trail hiking, lots of snuggles. I couldn’t find a better sitter! My weekly dog sitter!”
“Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.”
“Nelia and Brett, along with the rest of their beautiful family, took amazing care of our dog! Their communication was excellent — They sent (at least) twice daily updates and pictures. Our dog was given lots of attention and exercise and was very happy during his stay in their home. We will certainly book with them again and we highly recommend!”
“Coralee is an awesome sitter. Coralee & her family made my baby so comfortable. She is so patient, caring & loving. She communicated on a daily basis with lots of pics & videos. Will definitely book again!”
“My two cavapoos had the best time and Samantha was very responsive with updates to ease my anxiety about leaving them for so long! I would highly recommended trusting her with your fur babies!”
“Annette was lovely and caring to both Gustavo and me. Delays in flights meant I was 7 hours late in getting to Gus. Annette graciously dealt with this inconvenience. She was always quick to respond to communications. Most importantly, Gus clearly felt at home and welcomed from the minute she greeted him. When I picked him up, he was clearly comfortable with Annette. Thank you.”
“Tamara was an excellent sitter for my little dog! I will definitely book her in the future! I'm not sure my dog even wanted to come home. She was comfortable there from the get go! Tamara also went above and beyond when my dog grabbed a chicken bone thrown in the grass.”
“I’d been searching for a sitter after moving back to the area and the search is over! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my Barry was having a great time with Carol and her pups and getting all the cuddles. Carol sent updates and cute pictures of him getting plenty of love. We look forward to having a reliable person who makes it easy to enjoy my time away!”
“Our dog had a great time with Regina! He enjoyed having a lot of other dogs around and getting to spend time running around and in the pool. He came home very tired and happy. Thanks Regina!”
“I had to leave my pup for the first time for a wedding so I was pretty nervous about it – Rae couldn’t have been better! She met us before the trip to make sure my dog was comfortable and even let my dog explore her house so that the environment was familiar when she returned for her stay. She was quick to respond to all of my texts and provided regular updates and photos. I would 100% recommend Rae and will be a returning client. Thanks Rae!!”
“Bo seemed very at ease at Audrey's house. I appreciated the daily updates on him too! Thank you so much - will rebook if you're available the next time”
“Emily and Patrick are absolutely incredible! They took such wonderful care of my girl Bunny. When my trip was unexpectedly extended due to a flight cancellation, they were so flexible and accommodating. Throughout the weekend they kept me updated with photos and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t be more grateful — thank you both so much!”
“Geena is an absolute gift! She hosted our kitty for two back to back stays during a chaotic era of our lives and was FANTASTIC. Kitty had some medical stuff come up during her stay and Geena went above and beyond to communicate with us and make sure she had great care. We will absolutely rebook in the future and highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wilkinsburg
Daniel did a wonderful job with our golden retriever. Although he had never spent time with our dog, Daniel understood what our dog craves (petting!) and what he really enjoys (playing with other dogs). Daniel’s dogs were great playmates to our dog. Also house very clean, a fenced in back yard and great communication. We will use Daniel again.
You will NOT regret booking with Ellyn! Ellyn watched our pup for 2 weeks while we were away on vacay and I was so nervous because I have never taken my pup to a sitter before, much less for so long. She supplied me with so many updates and photos, her communication was absolutely stellar which allowed me to fully enjoy my trip. Lilo absolutely loved her stay and can’t wait for the next.
Adisyn was wonderful with our puppy Sullivan. He is 10 months old and very energetic! Adisyn allowed him to play in her home and yard. I loved the size of the yard and how secure it was. She also puts a GPS tracker on him for extra insurance. I felt very comfortable leaving our pup in her care. We received pictures of him having fun! We will definitely use Adisyn again when we are going away! Thank you for your loving care of Sullivan!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
