“Maria watched our 3 year old dog Mable for four nights and was absolutely amazing at making sure our pup was comfortable and having fun. She sent us pictures everyday with an update which was very comforting to see Mable was having a good time. We will definitely have Mable stay with Maria in the future!”

“Oh wow, booking a stay for our dog with Armida has officially set the bar incredibly high for what great dog care can and should look like! From before the booking even started, she wanted to know the interests and preferences of our pup, and planned around it all, including her own sleeping arrangements to ensure our pup was comfortable!! She pampered our pup so well, it felt that the dog was welcomed as a part of their family for the week! I cannot recommend Armida highly enough! One of the sweetest, kindest people I've ever met, too. We will forever be using Armida for our dog care needs for as long as she is available!!”

“I had to leave my pup for the first time for a wedding so I was pretty nervous about it – Rae couldn’t have been better! She met us before the trip to make sure my dog was comfortable and even let my dog explore her house so that the environment was familiar when she returned for her stay. She was quick to respond to all of my texts and provided regular updates and photos. I would 100% recommend Rae and will be a returning client. Thanks Rae!!”

“Cheryl is impossibly lovely. Our dog is a nervous boarder - he often struggles the first few days. But he didn't spend a single night in his crate while in Cheryl's care. She was super flexible with the start and end time of our stay and clearly gave our pupper a second home while we were away. We couldn't ask for a better experience.”

“Theresa boarded my 13 lb bundle of sweetness for a week, and she was absolutely wonderful! She was flexible when our flight times shifted, and more importantly, my pup was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. She can run on anxious side, so her even temperament is a testament to Theresa’s love and care! Lijah also loved Dozer the dog, which means he didn’t mind letting her hog momma for a little snuggle time. Thank you, Theresa! I’ve been using Rover for two years, and have had a few sitters. I recommend Theresa for boarding your pups.”

About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets and animals with unique care needs. My experience includes daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, administering oral medications, basic grooming, and reinforcing training routines. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort and happiness while providing photo messages, videos and updates so you can have peace of mind. Every pet receives personalized care based on their personality and routine. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so I’m available for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime and plenty of companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, meditations (if needed) and any special requests.

Delilah loved the occasional pup cup and the daily walks, and the pictures Christine sent throughout her stay made me absolutely confident that I chose the right sitter. 10/10 will be a return client!”

Tri is an amazing sitter! From the moment our dog met her, he chose her. And that was an early indicator that she was the one. She is very smart in her care for dogs and kind, loving, and fun in her interactions with them. This was so important to us as we chose her to be our very first sitter after a thorough search. Her home is a great environment to care for dogs, and she maintains it beautifully. We are going to hire her every chance we get, and you should, too!

First time using Rover for any overnight boarding, let alone for 4+ nights, and Chang came very highly recommended by her reviews- I’ll also agree she helped me feel calm and reassured about leaving my dog with her. My golden retriever is a little submissive and sometimes anxious around other dogs, so I was a little nervous since most of the time there are a few dogs staying, but Chang made her feel safe and comfortable. I know that because my dog was sad to leave when i picked her up!! Will def be using Chang again if we need an overnight sitter.

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!

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. 🐾💛

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Avalon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Avalon on Rover is $35 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 921 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Avalon. About 89% of Avalon sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
