“Amy is always responsive and sends pictures when we board our pup with her! I appreciate that she vets dog temperaments prior to allowing them to stay with her. Mango always has the best time playing with other dogs that Amy is also taking care of!”
“This was our puppy's first night away from home and I can't say enough about how reassuring it was to have him at Emily and Patrick's. He loved having another dog to play with. They had mountains of toys to entertain him as well. We got pictures and videos. And, more importantly, they kept him content despite his separation distress. We'll definitely come back to them when we need a dogsitter!”
“Lindsay and her family were so sweet and accommodating. They went out of their way to learn about my puppy and sent updates. They were there when I needed them. Thank you!”
“Mary was fantastic watching my pup George for 6days. Right from the meet and greet it was apparent to me he would be very well taken care of…and I could see that from pups demeanor too. Communication was great and it was shared thru pics how much George enjoyed his sitters. Highly recommend!”
“Courtney is wonderful with my dogs. I can always go away and feel comfortable leaving them with. I appreciate every thing she does for them and I know they will be safe and well taken care of.”
“Dara was absolutely fantastic - she took good care of Leo and sent updates and pictures. She really saved us and kept Leo one day longer than planned, because we were late because of a canceled flight.”
“We had great experience with Jena and Nick. Dexter received lots of love, personal attention, playtime, daily walks. Their pet Sebastian was a very nice dog and became great buddy of Dexter in a short time. They have a very nice and clean fenced backyard too. Dexter really enjoyed his time with Jena, Nick and Sebastian… We really appreciate their effort in making sure Dexter felt it at home…Thank you Jane, Nick and Sebastian for being so lovely to Dexter.”
“Nelia and Brett were fantastic. Communication before, during, and after the stay was top notch. You could tell both Nelia and Brett really wanted to understand the dogs needs and do whatever they could to ensure a great experience for the dog and owner. Will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Debbie and Adam were so very welcoming and took great care of our Piper! We loved the daily pictures they sent and how easily they picked up on her unique personality:)”
“Adam did a great job caring for my dog. He provided them with a lot of exercise, followed special instructions exactly, and also sent frequent updates and photos.”
“Maria (and her husband, Tony) are wonderful! They understand the minset of dogs and have the perfect place for our anxious pup to relax. Double-fenced yard for playing, lots of dog toys, and a beautiful neighborhood for walks. Very patient, kind, and our girl fit right in there. We already know that she can't wait to go back for another stay. The pictures that they sent us were adorable and made us feel better knowing she was having a great time and wasn't even missing us!”
“Melissa and her family welcomed Yogi and took care of him really well! I was nervous to leave him but with all the communication and update I felt better! Thanks for adhering to all of Yogis needs.”
“I was so pleased with Carol's care of my Yorkie. She did an excellent job and he was so very well taken care of. I could not be happier. I was also very reassured he was in good hands as she is a regular foster parent for dogs and has lots of experience. Thank you Carol!”
“Adrienne is absolutely amazing. She definitely knows how to handle your precious furry family members and gives full attention to parent and fur-kid. The daily pictures of activities kept me entertained but also confident in quality of care. I will be coming back for sure...”
“Raeann was great with my dog! My dog is very anxious so I was hesitant about leaving him. We set up a meet and great prior to my trip and all my hesitations were gone. She kept me updated constantly and sent pics during the course of my trip to keep me updated. She took him for walks, played with him and made a comfortable environment for him. I will definitely use raeann again.”
“Erica was great! She provided daily updates and I really appreciated that she took the pups for a walk. Based on the photos, Piper and Palmer seemed totally at ease at her house.”
“Bryn and boots were great hosts! Bryn took great care of our dog Julie. She seemed to really care about and follow Julie’s schedule. She was extremely communicative and we really appreciated all the updates even during a holiday week. Julie seemed to love spending time and playing with Boots. We will definitely be requesting to book again!”

Chang was great with our dog Hudson! She posted cute pictures of him every day with updates on how he was doing. He looked happy in every one! He came back to us healthy and content. Everything went as planned - she was always quick to respond and flexible when we had to make a change. We would definitely recommend Chang!
This was the first time leaving our dog with a sitter so we were a little nervous about whether he’d be ok, if he’d miss us & be anxious, etc. I told Amy our concerns & she assured us all would be good & it so was! Our baby had the best time! She does doggy day care as well so Augs had so many friends to play with. She was very communicative- not only answered my messages in a timely manner but sent me her own as well with lots of pics. We would definitely use her services again if needed. Thank you Amy!
Somdipa watched my Boston terrier, Dude, while I went on vacation for a week, and everything went great! I felt confident that he was well taken care of the whole time. Dude didn't want to leave, so I could tell he had a fun time. Would be very happy to have Somdipa watch Dude again in the future!
Tri thankfully accepted my last-minute request to watch my dog for the weekend. I have a very anxious dog, but Tri was able to keep her calm and give her all of the affection she desired. Tri sent many pictures and updates so I was able to enjoy my weekend away knowing that my dog was in great hands!
Dezerae was very good with our nervous senior dog. She was very responsive to messages, sent tons of pictures, and was ready on time for drop off and pick up. From top to bottom she took good care of our dog and communicated well with us and we would definitely have her watch our dog again in the future!
We had a wonderful experience with Shanna. We went on a two week trip and were a bit concerned on how our dog would do with us being away for so long. He tends to get a little anxious in unfamiliar places. To our surprise he did SO well while at Shanna’s. She ensured he felt welcomed and loved from day one. Boy, did he settled in quickly! Shanna sent daily photos, videos and updates on how our dog was doing. Seems like he had the time of his life lol Shanna is a wonderful dogsitter. She will be our top choice for any upcoming boarding needs.
We are so grateful for the amazing care Frodo received! From the very beginning, we felt completely at ease. She kept us updated, was attentive to his routines, and truly treated him like part of her family. Frodo looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It means so much to leave your dog somewhere and feel peace instead of worry — and that’s exactly how we felt. Thank you for loving him like we do. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter. 🐾💛
Alexa did an amazing job taking care of my dog. She was kind, reliable, and very attentive, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. Communication was smooth, and it was clear she genuinely cares about animals. I really appreciated her help and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Avalon on Rover is $36.2 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 886 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Avalon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
88% of Avalon sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Avalon landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Avalon 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 Avalon.
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 Avalon 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.
