“Kerri & Harry was so great with my Shih-Poo. We were looking for someone that would make him feel like home and they knocked it out the park - I could tell he missed them on our drive home. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a loving and safe place for your fur baby. We will definitely be using them again.”
“This is our 2nd stay with Christine. She has always communicated well with us on Chewie's stay. We love that she tries to watch only 1 dog at a time to keep her focus on the care of 1. We are already booked with Christine in Sept.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Kathleen is a fantastic dog sitter. We left our dog Lemon with her and he was loved and cared for like he was at home. He is usually nervous and scared when kenneled but he thrived at Kathleen’s. What a relief- her love for dogs is evident and she welcomed him like he is her own. There is now no worry to go on vacation and how the dog will do. We have peace of mind that he will be well-cared for.”
“Lauren did a great job with Bruno! I can tell he enjoyed his stay very much! She sent photos and gave us updates on how he was doing. Bruno will definitely be back! Thanks again!”
“I rarely write reviews, but I was compelled to leave one this time as I had a phenomenal experience with Roseanna. She genuinely cares about the animals she takes care of, and I felt confident my dogs were in a safe and happy place under her supervision. She constantly provided pictures and updates, and her house has a big backyard, which is a big plus. Highly recommend her, and I will definitely ask for her care again in the future!”
“Stephanie is an excellent dog sitter, very knowledgeable on anything to do with dogs. Love all the pictures she sends when my dog is with her. Will definitely use her again in the future”
“Lauren and Derek took great care of my Coko! They met us outside for dropoff and pickup. She had such an amazing time in their hands and playing with the other pups! 5/5 stars!”
“Melissa and Dan were great with our 8 month old golden retriever, Ginger. We were completely comfortable after our meeting. Ginger seemed happy and well taken care of. We received daily updates with photos and videos. I plan to leave our dog in their capable hands again and I would recommend them to anyone who wants quality care for their pet.”
“This was our first time using Rover. We always had a family member watch our dog so we were nervous trusting someone else. Traci and Jeff went out of their way to make our dog feel like part of their family. Pictures were sent twice a day with a brief update. I would not hesitate to use them again. They are good people.”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
About: I’m an experienced pet lover offering a safe, active home environment for your furry friend while you’re away. I know how important daily exercise and routine are, and I make sure every pet in my care gets plenty of activity and attention. My home is comfortable and pet-friendly, and I treat every guest like my own with patience and genuine affection. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, or just knowing when a pet needs quiet time. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I work full-time during the school year, but my schedule allows me to come home for potty breaks and check-ins throughout the day, so pets are never left alone for long stretches. Come summer, I’m off entirely and able to offer full-time attention, exercise, and companionship I have a fully fenced-in yard, giving pets safe space to run and play off-leash. I’m also happy to accommodate crate-trained pets, whether that’s for naptime, overnight, or just maintaining their normal routine while staying with me.
“Best sitter on Rover! He is quick to respond, and provides plenty of videos and pictures so we could rest assured that our energetic German shepherd was happy and entertained. He’s also very adaptable to schedule changes. Our dog was in great hands, and Iger was great at determining which dogs would get along, and maintained a safe environment for them all. I know our dog can’t wait until we go on vacation again so he can go back and play!”
“Junior and his family were awesome with Murphy! I received updates regularly. I will definitely use them again. I would recommend them to anyone that is looking for great pet sitters!”
“Amanda was excellent with our dog Siri, she sent us tons of pictures and videos, Siri had a blast and was super happy with Amanda and her daughter. She was super responsive to messages and offer to go beyond what was expected for the services. Will use again 100% and recommend her 200%.”
“Colleen was so great with Abe! We had pet care fall through last minute less than a week before our vacation and Colleen was a true life saver. She was reassuring throughout the booking process and sent plenty of pictures during Abe’s stay, helping put our minds at ease. Her home was very clean and welcoming, and we are so lucky to have left Abe in such great hands.”
“This is the second time I used Chastidy and she takes such good care of my Benz. We are so happy to know he is in good hands when we need to leave him for a few days.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Bristol is $55

Iger was awesome! Just great from the initial contact to the final pickup. We have a very large, older dog, and he and Deema were so kind to him - even hand fed him to get him to eat! I could tell that they really cared about our dog and enjoyed their time with him. Couldn’t have been more pleased and would definitely use them next time!

Jenny has boarded my miniature Schnoodle, Jasper on several occasions. Usually our trips are well planned in advance but this last time we had to board Jasper when we had to go out with family on an unplanned trip. Jenny was able to take on Jasper on very short notice. She is always prompt in her communications and keeps us updated on how Jasper is doing which we appreciate very much! We are very happy that Jasper is well taken care of during the times we have to be away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bristol on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,371 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bristol. 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.
93% of Bristol 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 Bristol 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 Bristol 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 Bristol.
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 Bristol 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.
