“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”
“Nicolle, care and pictures of my dog Spot made my stay away from him enjoyable. First time we were separated a long period of time. Will gladly as for Nicolle again. Will gladly recommend Rover to family and friends. My daughter n law recommended, glad she did. Gave tip directly to Nicolle when picked up Spot. Didn't know to use system.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful care and communication! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She kept in touch throughout her stay and sent daily photos, which gave us total peace of mind. It was obvious our dog was getting excellent, attentive care, and she came home visibly happy and relaxed. We’ll absolutely be booking again and highly recommend!”
“Yuiko is an amazing dog caretaker. My dog is treated so well that I am never sure if she’ll want to come home. She treats my dog like family. I would and have already recommended her to anyone who asks!”
“Chazz is amazing! My 2 dogs are not the easiest to deal but he was able to calm them down 5 mins after meeting them. I appreciate him sending me updates without us asking for it. Shoyu and Maki just got back from their vacation with him and seemed to have the best time. They are now having the best nap too lol This was our first time using this platform and I also based my booking from the previous reviews about him. You can tell that he is in the industry for a while now and is very experienced with different kinds/breeds of dogs. We will be asking him to take care of our babies when we go for future trips. Thanks again, Chazz!”
About: I grew up with a male Shih Tzu that I took care of for most of my life! I enjoyed playing with him and taking him on walks. I've also helped my sister raise her female Shih Tzu. I am a student with a very flexible schedule. I have a light class load this semester and a good amount of free time. If your pet requires a specific schedule please let me know ahead of time. I love interacting with dogs and spending time with them. I am very active and have a lot of free time, so playing with them will be no problem for me. I live near Clark Park and the Schuylkill River so I can take active dogs on long walks.
“Christina took great care of our pup! She sent cute pictures and kept us updated the whole time! He loved her and was very happy and relaxed with her. We’d definitely use her services again!”
“Zenith cared for my dog from February 19–22, and I am so grateful for her. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent sweet updates, photos, and videos that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear she treated him with genuine love and care, just like I would. I never once worried while I was away. I would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pup.”
“As normal, a 100 out of ten! Christopher is the best for our pit bull mix. He takes him out for daily walks, socializes him, and generally treats him like a prince with treats and cuddles and brushing! Our dog is always almost sad to be home with us because he had such a good time. Chris is the absolute best!!!!!”
“Tamara took such amazing, loving care of my 10 year old dog, cooper! She gave him a lot of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and adhered to his medicine and feeding schedule perfectly. She is a very sweet person and animal lover and I’m so grateful I found her through rover. I’ll definitely be rebooking Tamara!”
“I could not be more than satisfied with Yulia and Kevin. From the very beginning we found them very fond of dogs and we felt tha we left our puppy in great hands. It was confirmed hours after I left him, Yulia and Kevin were sending me pics and videos of our dog and how smart Coco became with their help. I would definetely chose them again for my next trip.”
“Allison and Kevin were amazing watching my dog Sunny for 5 nights! I was pretty nervous leaving her without family for the first time but they reassured me daily with plenty of updates and pictures and I was so happy they were loving on my baby while I was away. Truly great first time Rover experience and I would definitely book with them again!!”
“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!”
“Enes and Stephanie took great care of my little one during his first in home boarding experience. They made sure that my little one was comfortable and safe. Great communication while I was away sent an abundance of updated photos and treated my little one like he was a part of their family. I will definitely”
About: Hello! My name is Isaac and your canine companion is in great hands with me! I have over 5 years of professional experience walking and sitting dogs, but I also love watching my cousins and friends' dogs for fun! They've all left me with their dogs as they've travelled the world and since then I've made new friends... Elmo the Toy Poodle, Fiona the Pit bull, and Nimo the Yorkie! Dogs are extremely loyal so I vow to be just as loyal to your dog! I am the perfect companion for your dog because I will run, play, rub, and give affection to your dog. I believe dogs are more than just pets or animals, they really are our best friends and I cannot wait to meet yours! I work from home so I’m able to provide your dog love and support throughout the day. I can provide walks on a more frequent basis. I make sure to provide your pets with attention, feeding, petting, and exercise both physical and mental. I believe getting outside and getting a whiff of all the new scents around them is very mentally stimulating for your pets so that is a large part of my care for them.
“Kristina was so patient and sweet with Olive, who can be nervous and shy. By day 2, Kristina was sending us pictures of Olive belly up and happily napping next to Kristina on the couch and Olive completely made herself at home. Olive’s stay overlapped with a major heatwave, and Kristina made sure to get Olive out early in the AM for a nice walk each morning before it got too hot. I would definitely recommend Kristina for attentive and loving care for your pet!”

Dion was an incredible sitter for Lilly. She was easy to communicate with and meet for a meet and greet before booking. She sent picture updates of Lilly and she came home very happy. Dion even cleaned Lilly’s harness and fixed a dent in her food bowl! We will definitely be rebooking Dion anytime we need someone to watch Lilly. Thank you!
Christine was a great caretaker for our deaf 11 year old hound mix over a long weekend. Christine helped Georgia settle in to unfamiliar surroundings. She is warm and comforting and clearly has lots of experience with and loves dogs. We will use her again without hesitation.
We are so glad we found Shayla!! She provided such a calm, welcoming, home -like environment for our two dogs, which was exactly what we hoped for. She took the time to ask thoughtful, detailed questions about their routines, food, and individual care needs, and our dogs felt right at home with her. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were comfortable and well cared for. We would happily board them with Shayla again and highly recommend her!
We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter Stephany and Brandon! Communication was prompt and consistent, and we really appreciated receiving regular updates and pictures of our pet. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our pet was being well cared for while we were away. Their two daughters also helped out, which was so sweet and made it feel like our dog was getting lots of extra love and attention. We couldn’t be happier with the care they provided and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter on Rover!
Provided a fun enjoyable environment for our boy and they were very communicative. They sent us daily updates and pictures, some of which were quite entertaining, arguably some of the better ones we’ve received from Rover sitters! Our dog is incredibly affectionate, and they rose to the occasion with plenty of cuddles!
Brooke went above and beyond with our Phoebe! She took Phoebe on so many adventures and I knew she was having a great time. Brooke provided ample photos throughout her stay. Phoebe and Mochi got along really well. We would definitely have Brooke care for Phoebe in a future stay!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Ardmore
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ardmore is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $82 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 3,380 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ardmore. 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 Ardmore 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 Ardmore 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 Ardmore.
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 Ardmore 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.
