“Jeffrey was extremely responsive to my questions and wrote every day with updates and photos. He was patient with Papaya's anxiety, and madensure she ate, even if it meant offering her handfuls of food at a time. It's the first time we left our sweet goofy girl with someone, but it felt good to know she was in such good hands. Thank you, Jeffrey!”
“Roseanna is exactly how the reviews have described her. Absolutely awesome pet person. The family is very welcoming. Vinny, my 8month old is boarded there for the first time alone and she has been welcomed like a second home. Highly recommend Roseanna for her excellent communication and convenience.”
“Jia was fantastic! She was very flexible and understanding with pick up and drop off times, was attentive during the meet and greet to both care instructions as well as making sure Dashi fit in well, and was extremely communicative during the sit with photo and video updates. I would highly recommend Jia for her attention to detail and excellent care for your pup.”
“Kathryn was so great! She really loves and understands dogs (and nervous dog moms!) She communicates well and frequently. Her yard is fenced and spacious. I recommend her highly.”
“Janet is a lovely woman who took excellent care of Grover while my husband and I were away. She sent us updates and pictures and answered my texts quickly. She was extra patient during our introductory meetings and made sure that our little terrier mix who is normally-wary-of-strangers was comfortable being around her and in her home. I highly recommend Janet and will definitely book with her in the future ☺️”
“Zoey was an excellent caregiver to our shy dog! It was our first time boarding her and we were so happy with the experience! She provided updates and pictures and we were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries! We highly recommend her! We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Chazz is amazing! I have a stubborn Husky mix who will pancake and refuse to move haha and Chazz handled her with impressive expertise and care. My girl is a bit shy but just loves Chazz, and he's so reliable and flexible. He really put my mind at ease.”

“Gregory watched our mini golden for 6 days and was super communicative keeping us updated on how she was adjusting and sending lots of pictures. She had a great time”

“Absolutely WONDERFUL. I literally have no words to describe how amazing Traci and Jeffery’s care was for Apollo. They are so sweet and kind and treated my dog as their own. They kept me updated on his activities and behaviors. They were so incredibly accompanying to his medical needs. They are such lovely people to talk with as well. They are very communicative and on top of the job. If you need care for your dog. Hire Traci and Jeffery!”
“What a great experience with my first time using a dog sitter for my very laid back dog, Lucy! The family listened and understood exactly what Lucy needed to have a great time! She absolutely loved this family, & so did I. They made me feel comfortable and relaxed about leaving her in their care! We have already scheduled the next visit!”
“Electra and Crescent were great!! Such warm people and natural animal lovers.

Can't say it enough she is amazing!”
“We did boarding with Mel for the first time this weekend after multiple days of daycare in the past! As expected, everything was great! Reviewed multiple photos of Cannoli throughout the day and he seemed very happy his entire time there! Would highly recommend!”
“Armani was great. Raven-Pepper has a pretty extensive feeding regimen, but she was able to follow it very well. She also kept me up-to-date on how Raven-Pepper was doing. On whether or not she ate and all the walks she took. If I am in the area again, I would definitely book with her again.”

Becky and Christian did a great job taking care of Freya. They sent me daily update photos and answered my texts quickly. Freya was very comfortable and relaxed when I picked her up after she stayed in their home. I will definitely have them take care of Freya again.
Gabriela is one of Barkley’s favorite sitters. She loves the whole family and gets so excited when I drop her off. It’s a great comfort when someone loves your dog as much as you do. I never worry when Barkley is there. I’ve already scheduled more time with her because of that.
We had a wonderful experience with Colleen! She quickly became friends with our dog, and we could tell right away that she knows how to handle and connect with pets. Everything went smoothly, and we had absolutely no problems during our dog’s stay. We are very happy with her care and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who genuinely knows how to take care of and get along with animals. We would be happy to have her watch our dog again!
Lizzy took wonderful care of my dog over a weekend at her house, and I would definitely send my pup to Lizzy’s again for a stay! My dog has anxiety and takes daily medication, and Lizzy had no issues providing her care. Lizzy was very communicative providing updates and answering questions with quick responses. My pup loved spending time in her spacious, fenced in backyard and came home very happy!
Yino took amazing care of Bonnie while we were on vacation for a week - she sent pictures and videos showing how happy she was the whole time. She even took extra care during storms for our very anxious pup and provided the appropriate medication. We’ll definitely be booking with Yino again next time we need a sitter! Communication was phenomenal and Bonnie was taken care of perfectly.
Maggie stayed with Amy and Timothy once again and I couldn’t be happier with their care for her! They are so accommodating and helpful. They always send pictures and videos. I can enjoy wherever I am because I know Maggie is safe with them. Also, Maggie loves going with them, I can tell when I drop her off and that’s the ultimate satisfaction! Thanks Amy and Timothy!
Mary was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! She was caring, reliable, attentive, and clearly treated my dog like her own. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Barbara was great with Java Chip! She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, followed all care instructions, and made Java Chip feel right at home in a clean, safe environment. Barabara genuinely loves the dogs in her care. We'll definitely book with Barbara again!
Katherine was an absolute life saver and caregiver to our dog, Mandy, while we were on vacation. She had recently had some swelling due to a bug bite. It was horrible timing to go on vacation, but Katherine had everything under control and made sure to let me know everyday how she was doing. She had to give her medicine multiple times per day and had no problems. I appreciated all of the daily pictures, videos and even the way they included Mandy in their 4th of July celebration. I highly recommend her. And I’m grateful to have found a dependable dog sitter for our next out of town event. Thank you again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Abington is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,369 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Abington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of sitters in Abington 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 Abington 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 Abington.
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 Abington 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.
