“Kerri and Harry are incredibly attentive, patient and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Daisy will be going back, so long as they'll have her.”
“Traci is an amazing bonus mom to my fur baby. She is very attentive and gives me lots of updates that I appreciate when I'm traveling. She has a big clean house and yard for lots of running fun and tag games with resident pup Chewy. I really recommend Traci as a boarder, my pup adores her and runs into her and every time.”
“Archie spent the weekend with Angela and her family There was another dog and Archie was happy to have another dog with him Picked him up and he was happy Angela sent updates through the weekend Was great experience”
“I brought my dog Jasper to Katie for a day visit in preparation for an overnight as he’s a little clingy and sensitive to changes in routine. He did spectacular with her. He was able to rest, go for a walk and Katie sent me so many wonderful pictures of him absolutely relaxed and having the best time. Katie was able to assuage my anxieties and treated my dog as if he was her own. I highly recommend!”
About: From a family of dog lovers, I have always had a dog at home to care for. Growing up, I was the neighborhood’s go-to pet sitter. I love all dogs and have a very flexible schedule! I am currently a teacher on summer break which leaves me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your dogs on a schedule that works best for you! I have a friendly and playful dog at home, Murphy who can keep your pup company or be crated if needed. At my apartment we have two gated dog run areas and living downtown provides many fun areas to walk.
“Monica provides wonderful care for my two French Bulldogs. Drop-off and pick-up are a breeze. This rebook sealed the deal - my dogs were excited to return and willingly left me for the fun and play at Monica’s. Thank you!”
“Meg was great. Communication was easy and the provisions for my pup were just like home. Price very fair and in fact was same as price I was going to pay for a kennel stay which was not what I wanted to do so I was so happy to find Meg.”
“We traveled from out of state and needed someone to watch our pup while we were at Sesame Place and having our dog stay with Meghan was so helpful! Very flexible with pickup and drop off and sent lots of pictures of our dog enjoying his time there.”
“Mary was an amazing sitter for my pup. He enjoyed staying with her for a couple of days and she sent me photos of him which made me feel better about leaving him with someone he doesn’t know. Thank you both for your caring for my little guy!! We truly appreciate it.”
“Great communication with Kevin while he watched my doggie!!! Pic and videos were really great to have while I was away from her! It made it a lot easier to leave her while on my trip!!! Super happy with Kevin and his family for watching Bella!!”
“We had a great experience leaving our dogs with Wanda. When we left them I heard them crying and was a bit concerned about them settling in. When we got home Wanda had texted and let us know they were setting in and sent us photos showing them relaxing. During the week we received multiple photos and updates on how it was going, which put us at ease. When we picked up the dogs they were in excellent health and very happy. We would highly recommend Wanda dog sitting services. Thank you Wanda, for taking such good care of our dogs.”
“Ryan was our 1st experience using Rover, or any boarding service. We have a very large very anxious 3yr old dog, and Ryan made the experience smooth and worry free for myself & my dog. He sent great photos showing how relaxed & happy my dog was while we were away, which my whole family loved to see. Highly recommended using Ryan for any services he offers.”
“Rachel did a great job caring for our pup. She was flexible with timing, and helped Lulu adapt to her new surroundings. She also sent pictures and gave us regular updates during her stay. If you are looking for a pup sitter she’s a great choice.”
“Our pooch had a wonderful time hanging out at Steven's house. There is a lot of indoor space and a fenced yard to play in, and other doggy friends. Steven sent us photos every day of all the fun. Steven was very easy to communicate with and perfectly accommodated our schedule. We are so happy to have found such a wonderful situation so close to our home in Hopewell.”
“Earlier this week, I found myself in the position of finding overnight care for my dog Cookie at the very last minute. I will never send him to a kennel since he does not do well with a lot of other dogs and I did not want him lost amidst a sea of yapping or feeling confined. I needed someone with a big, secure, natural back yard to enjoy when not on walks; someone with only one or two personal pets who would not take in others during Cookie’s stay; and someone active, engaged and loving with my special guy. I found that person in Christina. Christina is brand new to the platform, which I actually liked since I suspected she would go over and beyond what was required as she builds her reputation. Her narrative and the testimonials sounded authentic, and her photos showed obvious joy with dogs and cats. And she was available on short notice. I asked if we could do a live video “walk-around” her house, and mainly her yard, on WhatsApp, which I do not believe most people would have agreed to, but she did so readily. This is what I saw, heard and learned: 1) The yard is huge, secure, beautiful and interesting; 2) Her rapport with her own bichon was kind, gentle and fun (I learned she had three bichons for many years but two passed and I think Rover is partly to help fill that void); 3) She walks in Pennypack Park morning, noon and night so when Cookie was not enjoying the yard, he’d be enjoying new sights and sounds elsewhere with his new bichon buddy; 4) Cookie would not be caged ever, and no other dogs would be accepted for boarding while he was there. I had to change the drop off and pickup times at the last minute, which was not a problem at all. Drop-off was easy and communication consistent and remained on WhatsApp throughout the stay. I picked Cookie up a little while ago and I knew I had made the right choice for my guy. Cookie will be back at Christina’s without a question, though hopefully not at the last minute again. Five out of five!!!”
“Colleen was wonderful with our Aussiedoodle, Rex. He is very high-energy, and she did an excellent job caring for him. She kept us updated throughout his stay by sharing photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also very accommodating and easy to work with. I would not hesitate to use Colleen again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.”
“Nikolaj kindly watched Luna during a difficult time in my life and I was confident that she was treated well. Nikolaj is very gentle and calm, which balances my high energy puppy.”
“Janet was very loving and kind to Fluffy,he adapted to her and felt very comfortable with her almost immediately!! I felt very comfortable on my vacation, knowing he was in great hands! She sent me pics of him,almost everday,which made me happy?.She went above and beyond, Fluffy had a little sore on his back paw,that he was gnawing at,and Janet put warm compresses on it,and a little peroxide, to comfort it.I never thought that I would ever leave Fluffy with anyone,But after meeting Janet and talking with her,I was convinced he was absolutely in great hands with her.Shes a very loving person. IF I could give her 10 stars I would, and will absolutely use her again ☺.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Woodbourne
How I wish I could give Kathleen a 10-star review! The Thursday before a holiday weekend, we discovered our dog, Leia (3-year-old 70-pound German Shepherd) sprained her ankle. Our family had plans to be away for the weekend, including kid sporting events and other activities - family members going in separate directions, with the inability to change plans or bring Leia with us. Because of her sprained ankle, Leia could not go to a local kennel where we have boarded her in the past. I was in a panic after striking out with asking friends for recommendations for a care giver. Leia is not the kind of dog who can stay home by herself and be checked in on periodically. As I scrolled through rover.com, I found Kathleen - after reading her profile, I crossed my fingers she was available. I was thrilled to learn she was! I was so upset Leia was hurt and that I couldn't stay home with her that weekend. Kathleen put me at ease, assured me I needed to continue with our plans, and explained what Leia's weekend would be like -short walks to protect her ankle, time in the backyard, a great spot on the couch to look out large windows, and plenty of toys and snuggles. Leia did great! I received text updates from Kathleen about how she was doing and lots of pictures showing me Leia was very happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kathleen and look forward to her caring for Leia again in the future.
We had a wonderful experience and couldn’t have been happier with the care our dog received. It was clear that the whole family made her feel welcome and treated her like one of their own. We especially loved knowing that she had their dogs around for company and was able to feel like part of the family while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing she was in such a caring, comfortable home and getting plenty of attention. She came home happy and very well cared for, which says it all. We would absolutely trust them with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, dependable place for their dog to stay. Five stars!
We had a great experience with Courtney! She treated Rocky like he was her own. Everything was so easy from our first meeting. Courtney communicated with us the entire time through messages and with photos! We highly recommend her! (We already booked with her again)
Holly was wonderful!! Sammie had a great stay with Holly and her family. I was worried about her bc we’ve never left her before but my fears were put to rest when Holly would update me each day. I was afraid that Sammie might want to stay and not come home, but in the end, she missed us a lot.

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 Woodbourne 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 Woodbourne.
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 Woodbourne 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.
