“She took such great care of my dog! He hates to be alone and I was so grateful to have someone that he could spend the day with, and he didn't have any issues with separation anxiety. I would absolutely recommend her!”

“Ian was absolutely fantastic. This was our first time using Rover.com as well as leaving our 19 week old puppy, Rosie. He made us feel very comfortable. He kept us updated regularly by sending pictures and videos. Rosie had an absolute ball with Ian and other dogs. I highly recommend Ian and will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you Ian for everything!”

“Michell was absolutely incredible with our Luna from beginning to end! Luna had some challenges getting adjusted to being away from home, but they were so welcoming and willing to go above and beyond to make Luna comfortable- it truly meant the world to us knowing she was in such loving arms this week while we were away! Michell is a master at having multiple pups at once, and made sure Luna had lots of fun playing with playmates. I appreciated the open communication and regular updates with photos of our girl. I would recommend Michell 110 percent, to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet like family ? ?”

“I boarded with Aaron for the first time and certainly this may not be th last time as Aaron was very professional and polite. We did a meet and greet and he ensured he has all the relevant information he would need to take care of my Daisy well. I was provided regular updates, pics and videos for Daisy while I was away and it sure was a good experience for Daisy to get a pup cup and enjoy it! There is good play space for the dogs in the fenced backyard also! I would highly recommend Aaron for his boarding services. Thanks!”

About: Hello! Dogs and cats have been part of my life since I was a child. My Nova Scotia Duck Tolling retriever, Marley, was the love of my life! As others have said, animals make a house a home. I hope you and your dog will consider mine a home-away-from-home. My home consists of a family of three (myself, my high school-aged son, and our kitty). I work from home so your dog will enjoy a lot of love and attention throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard and there are also parks, nearby, if walks are requested. I would consider taking more than one dog if the dogs are comfortable with one another and my cat, Moby. Moby is 6 years old and he has a catio and a finished basement to retreat to so each fur babe can have time apart. Please reach out if you have questions. I work from home so I can provide company and comfort to your pup throughout the day. I have occasional, local errands. My best times are early mornings and evenings for walks or extended play. I have a large fenced yard for fun exploration and sniffing. If your fur babe prefers their crate or bed when they're away from home, please bring it along. They can also snooze on the couch or in bed with me. I have a one-story home and your dog will have access to every room on the main floor. The finished basement will remain a cat-only space. When we meet, I'll ask you to share favorite activities that help your dog feel happy and comfortable.

Sharna played with them and walked them every day. Poc and Poki were so happy there they didn’t want to leave when I picked them up.

About: As long as I can remember I've been an animal lover. I grew up riding horses, working on farms, + living with no less than 3 dogs at a time in my house. As a kid I dreamed of being a veterinarian. I took in all sorts of animals that needed to be nursed back to health from birds + snakes to donkeys + kittens. It was a little like living in a zoo + I loved every second! I rode + trained horses competitively in high school. At 16, I qualified for the junior Olympic team in equestrian eventing. I’m now a mom, my own son is 16, and I own my own photography business capturing families + pets spreading joy + gratitude. Rover is a welcome addition to that career. I absolutely LOVE what I do + am thankful to have the opportunity to support myself + my son serving other animal loving families like us. I work remotely Mondays and Fridays. Tuesday through Thursday I’m in the office 8-5pm in King of Prussia. I’m typically available most weekends but can occasionally offer weekday evening bookings. Safety is a priority for me. I aim to keep your pets routine stable and comfortable so we stick with what they know and don’t try new things until trust has been built.

Our pups love staying with Ian and his dogs, Chloe and Emma. They are well cared for and always receive plenty of love while we’re away. We haven’t left our guys with anyone else since we found Ian. He’s simply the best dog sitter in our area!

Ginger was amazing! She really helped us out in a last minute situation and took great care of our dog. She sent photo updates which I really appreciated. We don't leave/travel too often, and the photos just showed us how happy our dog was staying with Ginger. She was comfy and clearly made some friends and enjoyed getting lots of attention! We plan to use Ginger again when we travel in the future and would recommend to anyone looking for a private sitter over a kennel.

Kelly loved her stay with George! His dogs were great with her, and she enjoyed his fenced yard and walks in the woods. I know this, because when I picked her up, she wanted to go back in his house. 😂 The updates with pictures were great while we were away.

It was my first time having to leave my dog, Max, with someone he did not know, and meeting Laura before going on my trip was very helpful. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She keeps you updated and answers questions promptly. Laura sent pictures and videos to show how Max was doing, which I really appreciated. If I need a sitter again I will definitely bring Max back to Laura, and I know he'll feel comfortable, and I will feel better about leaving him.

Our 2 year old mini golden doodle, Pepper, had a lovely stay with Leah and her mini golden doodle, Ollie. Leah communicated frequently and provided great updates. We knew Pepper was doing well the whole time, and it was nice knowing Pepper had another dog to hang out with. Two walks a day and a fenced in backyard with exceptional care from Leah, and another dog was a perfect situation for our energetic pup. 11 out of 10!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Media

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Media on Rover is $40 per night as of September 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $80 per night. 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.

There are 3,345 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Media. About 89% of Media 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 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 .

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.
