“Dominique and her family were great! She made sure she understood our dog’s habits and needs and went out of her way to accommodate them. We have a senior dog who came home tired, but content. I highly recommend Dominique and will be contacting her when we need a pet sitter again!”

“Dana and her pack were very welcoming to my pup. Dana has a nice little yard for the dogs to romp around in and air conditioning in her home to give relief to hot dogs during a heat wave. Dana sent pictures and check ins to make us feel at ease. Dana was easy to communicate with and was accommodating when I was running a bit late for pick up.”

“Jennifer was a lovely host for Kimi! She made sure our active dog had tons of adventures with her family. She’s clearly well versed in dog behavior and we had full confidence in her ability to handle our dog off leash. Her family are very kind and she provided plenty of pictures and updates. We would definitely use her again!”

About: My partner Will and I are both lifelong dog lovers, and we’re excited to open our home to dogs who need some extra care, company and adventure! We have our own dog, Cooper, a big, goofy Lab mix, so we’re very comfortable with larger, energetic dogs and all the personality that comes with them. We also have experience caring for dogs with health needs and dogs who are reactive or need a little extra patience and space. We understand that every dog is different, and we’re comfortable following individual routines, giving medications as needed, managing triggers, and creating a calm and positive environment. We’re both active and love hiking, walking and spending time outdoors, so we’re happy to keep dogs entertained and exercised. At the same time, we’re just as happy with a quiet day of cuddles and downtime. Our goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable and genuinely part of the family while they’re with us. We’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routines, personality and needs so they can feel right at home. My partner and I both work or study from home, so we have a flexible schedule and are able to provide plenty of companionship throughout the day. We can accommodate walks, daycare and boarding, and we’re happy to work around each dog’s usual routine. We love getting outside for walks and adventures, while also making sure there’s plenty of downtime, attention and relaxation. We prioritize safety, comfort and individualized care for every dog in our home. We have experience caring for dogs with health needs, separation anxiety, and reactivity, and understand the importance of following routines, managing triggers and giving dogs space when needed. We provide a calm, clean and welcoming home with supervised play, walks and outdoor time. We’ll always follow your instructions and take the time to understand your dog’s personality, needs and boundaries so they feel safe and comfortable while in our care.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Merville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Merville is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $64 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.

sitters in Merville have an average of 21 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile. Look at other pet parent reviews and repeat pet parent booking rates for an idea of their pet care exp erience.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

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.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

You and your Merville 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.
