“Kira was great to work with! I reached out to her last minute and she was extremely accommodating and easy going. I boarded my 2 Pomeranians at her house for a week while I traveled. My dogs seemed perfectly happy when I picked them up! Would absolutely recommend Kira as well as use again!”
“Amanda was wonderful and took great care of our puppy! She communicated well with us and made us feel comfortable to have her care for our dog. I would 100% recommend having her care for any dog! :)”
“This was Mack’s first boarding experience and it was a great one. He is exhausted from playing in the grass and making friends. I’m so glad he had a great time and was safe while our family went on our vacation.”
“Jessica was amazing with Felix, kept me up to date on how he was doing and provided a bunch of pictures. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous, but she made it extremely worry free. Her dogs were extremely friendly and even welcomed Felix the minute they saw each other. I will definitely choose her to watch Felix again!”
“Kaylee is phenomenal! Leaving our dogs is always anxiety inducing because we want to make sure they are loved the way we love them, Kaylee was able to work with us even when we needed to change up the reservation a little bit due to changes with our plans. Her communication is incredible and she responded almost immediately anytime I sent a message. She loved our dogs like they were her own and they were so happy at the end of the stay that we immediately knew anytime we are looking for someone to watch our dogs, Kaylee will be our first call. If you need someone that will go above and beyond, take care of your dogs the way you want them to be cared for and know your in the best hands ever, Kaylee is your girl!”
“100% recommended. I felt very calm throughout my trip because JoEllen was in constant communication with me everyday, She always sent me photos and updates on how my dear Ginger was doing. THANK YOU VERY MUCH”
“Megan and her family were great with our 2 dogs. Both dogs are more on the nervous side and tend to be very shy and hide in new situations. Megan said she let them take their time getting to know the place and let them decide when they would be interested in being more social with the family. The girls seemed to do well and were happy and healthy when we came and got them. Also appreciated the flexibility on the drop off/pick up as we were beholden to airline schedules! Our booking was last minute, so I'm very thankful Megan was willing to take the girls and I will be booking with her again in the future.”
About: I’m a NICU nurse looking to turn my love for animals into something I can do on the side. While this is my first time offering pet-sitting services professionally, I have years of experience caring for animals and am very comfortable with both cats and dogs. I currently have four cats of my own, but my family has many dogs I deeply love. I’m used to volunteer at PETS until I had my son, because helping animals is something I’m truly passionate about. As a NICU nurse, I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and detail-oriented. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I would treat your cat/dog with the same love and care I give my own. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just some extra company while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to help! I work three 12-hour shifts per week as a NICU nurse, and my schedule varies, but this gives me flexibility on my days off to spend time caring for your pets! My husband is also involved and helps provide flexibility with our schedule. I can coordinate my availability around your pet’s needs and am happy to communicate ahead of time to make sure we find a schedule that works for everyone. I understand how important consistency and reliable care are for your pets, and I want to make sure they receive plenty of love and attention while you’re away! I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved, especially when their owners are away! I have four cats of my own and have grown up around dogs and other animals, so I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs with different personalities and needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I will follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that pets are most comfortable in familiar surroundings, and I want to make their time away from their owners as stress-free as possible. As a NICU nurse, I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and detail-oriented. I will take the time to understand your pet’s individual needs and follow any specific instructions you provide. I also know how important communication is, so I’m happy to send updates and pictures to give you peace of mind while you’re away!
“We will be a continuing supporter of Daniel for as long as we can. He and his kids are absolutely amazing with Charlie. I will get random photos or videos during the stay. Charlie has always come back super happy and worn out. If you need a sitter, I highly recommend!!!!”
“Donna was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures and funny stories about my pup Molly. I knew she was in great hands! She and her husband walked Molly and incorporated her into their daily lives. I highly recommend Donna.”
“Luna had a great time staying at Cera’s. Cera went above and beyond in making sure Luna felt at home, taking her on runs, lots of snuggles, and sharing an abundance of updates. Would definitely book again.”
“Genalind and the whole family were great with my dogs.. will definitely book with her again. Great pictures and keeping me posted with my dogs all day.. We loved that.. thank you so much”
“Very welcoming & made my fur baby feel right at home! Communication was prompt and received updates with photos. Above & beyond service. Will definitely book again and refer to others. Thank you!”
“Deb & her family were great with my boxer! Her other animals got along great with my dog and she provided updates, to include pictures. Highly recommend Deb! Thank you!”
“Ashley, Kyle and family welcomed Teddy and us and made all of us feel comfortable. Teddy noticed us leaving but didn't fuss much as he had a couple of children to play with. It was only a two night booking, but we were happy to receive a pic of him enjoying himself on Saturday. Pickup went smooth. Teddy and all his belongings were packed and waiting for us. Ashley gave a little report of his stay, encluding his eating and potty breaks. If we are back in the Lancaster area again, we'll be looking for Ashley & Kyle on Rover. I'm sure Teddy would be happy too. Thank you!”
“Lisa was incredible! This was my first time leaving my dogs with a “stranger”, and I couldn’t have had a better experience! Lisa updated me with pictures often, and even sent my babies home with a photo album of pictures!! My girls loved her, and we will be using her in the future!! ❤️”
“Simone is an excellent pet sitter, and I recommend her without reservation. I needed someone I can trust with my gang of five - three cats and two English labs. They range in age from 19 to 1, and have a variety of needs, including medication for an elderly cat and supervision of a recently hospitalized dog, with his younger, very exuberant "brother." Simone managed it all without difficult, and even gave attention to the less needy pets. She sent some adorable photos that I will definitely save. Simone is calm, patient, attentive, intelligent, experienced with her own and others' animals, and caring. I did not feel like I had to worry about my guys and gals, knowing she was with them. I also respect that she came to the house beforehand to meet us and our animals and determine our needs. She was very responsive in communication, when we were setting up our first meeting. Thank goodness, because I am not the most tech savvy!”
“Cynthia took wonderful care of my cat while I was travelling for 3 weeks! Seeing the pictures of them playing and cuddling together made me feel totally at ease. She truly treated him like a part of her family. He loved it so much I don't think he was even ready to come home at the end!”
“Amber was amazing to our dog Kenzo. She made sure to keep us updated with pictures and messages. She really cared for him and I could tell Kenzo was very happy. I will definitely book with her again for our next trip.”

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 Wintersville 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 Wintersville.
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 Wintersville 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.
