“Jeslyn was so sweet! She arrived at the car with treats to pick up my pup, and kept her comfortable and was well taken care of. Great communicator, I received plenty of pictures throughout her stay. Will definitely book again!”

“Diana was amazing with our pups. It was such a last minute need when we found out my mom had Covid and couldn’t watch our 2 dogs for Memorial Day weekend. Diana was right there. She took them in, cared for them, took pictures and asked essential questions. The pups were happy and healthy when picked up and clearly had a great weekend. We are so grateful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Maya's stay with Melanie over Christmas was great. Melanie's home is very welcoming and she made every effort to make sure Maya was comfortable. Thank you for having her and I will definitely be in touch for a future stay!”

“Where to begin? I’m traditionally a mess when I have to leave my little man to travel for my job. Or should I say I used to be a mess. And then Juliana entered our lives and my stress vanished. Could not have been a better experience. Spoiled our little guy while he was there and keep me in the loop with adorable photos at every step. Very grateful for Rover helping make this connection.”

“Absolutely amazing! This the first time I left my dog since rescuing him and his anxiety gave me anxiety 😅. Kristina was great she answered all my questions, she was so kind when I asked stupid ones. She kept my dog safe and happy. She also works with reactive dogs great! Would recommend! Can't say it enough she is amazing!”

“Kristin was amazing and our boy Sherman had the best time with her and her family. She was extremely communicative and attentive, and provided so many photos of our little guy throughout the weekend so we didn’t have to worry about him. It’s hard leaving your pup with someone new and she made it as easy as it could be.”

“Alice did a wonderful job taking care of Sandy and keeping us updated. She watched her for 2 weeks and made sure we received plenty of pictures and knew how Sandy was doing while we were away.”

“Chazz is great! Zelda is happy and calm when I pick her up, and my mind is at ease knowing that she’s being taken care of by someone that’s kind, friendly and professional.”

“We have used Mary multiple times and it’s been great! We get lots of updates and pictures and it’s clear she treats our pet with lots of love and attention. She’s a great pet sitter that I can’t recommend highly enough!”

“Danielle was wonderful! She is very communicative, flexible, and clearly is a dog lover! We felt very safe leaving our dog with her and have already rebooked! Our dog clearly had a great time in her home”

“Eric took such great care of Kobe. He was so responsive, accommodating to Kobe’s needs, and was so gracious when traffic delayed our pick up. We will definitely be booking Eric again”

“As a first time Rover user, Chris is an asset to the company. He accepted Theo as a boarding guests for two nights. Chris was extremely generous with his time ahead of our booking in a meet-and-greet and walk. He is knowledgeable, personable, giving, and very loving to animals. The updates were encouraging and plentiful (even without my asking). Chris cared for my best friend as my own, and made this whole experience great. As I warned him at pickup, he is now part of our family. Thank you Rover... and HUGE THANKS to Chris for making this company/service/experience incredible.”

“Kerry was amazing! Goose loved her and she kept me updated about how he was doing. You can tell she really loves and cares about the dogs she watches. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter!”

“Khaing is the best! She took good care of my cat (Lexx) for 5 days. She kept me updated & sent me pictures everyday. She also does pick up & drop of service which is very convenient for me. Thank you Khaing i appreciate everything and also for the new toys your gave Lexx. He loves it! I will be using your service again in the future. Take care!”

“Sabrina was soo wonderful with Ada, so kind and such a pleasure to work with! It was a fairly long stay and she sent frequent updates and photos and we could tell just how happy our dog was! We can’t wait to board with her again!”

“Christina was amazing and took such great care of our dog Clementine! She sent us daily updates and pictures which we really appreciated. We will definitely book with her in the future!”

“Tim was great! Took Billie on many walks and kept us updated the entire time we were away. Would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dogsittee”

“We’re so grateful to have had Kathy to watch over our dog during our extended time away! She made sure to send constant updates and photos to let us know how he was adjusting to a new place. Our pup was sensitive to several factors that would affect his eating and bathroom habits, but we’re thankful that Kathy was so patient with his needs. Definitely would recommend her with utmost confidence to watch over and care for your fur baby as she treats them as her own!”

Chris watched my pup, Fede, about a week ago and was an absolute lifesaver. I contacted with extremely short notice before a trip after my care plans fell through. Chris not only agreed to watch my pup, but took on the task of learning how to care for his special needs. Fede is recovering from paralysis, uses a wheelchair to get around, and requires assistance to use the bathroom. Chris was a willing and patient student of his care and Fede seemed very happy when I returned to pick him up. Highly recommend Chris as a safe space for pets to stay.

We left Sunny with Kristin for the first time for 5 days/nights, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Kristin was incredibly caring and attentive to Sunny’s individual needs, and it was clear that she genuinely wanted to make her feel comfortable and at home. Kristin truly went above and beyond to make sure Sunny had everything she needed and received plenty of care and attention. We would absolutely trust Kristin with Sunny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and loving dog sitter!

Madison is so amazing, and our dog Lucy loves spending time with her on walks and relaxing at home! We are so comfortable and happy knowing Lucy is being cared for by a responsible and loving caretaker. Thank you Madison for always keeping us updated and notifying us of any issues, you’re the best!
Samantha is great! She is so nice and responsible. My dog Rosie made herself at home. Samantha sent frequent updates and pictures of Rosie playing with her sweet dog Petunia. I felt completely at ease leaving Rosie with her and her partner, and would definitely use them again!

Janelle took such good care of our dog. He had never been out of our home before and the easy routine, available comfy spots, and caring environment allowed him to feel quite at home. The resident pup was also so accommodating and friendly. We are so happy to have found such a great spot for our pup.

Lucy had another awesome stay with Fran and friends. Lucy injured her paw a few days before our vacation, which was not ideal but, of course, Fran took excellent care of her. Fran and I scheduled a call to go over Lucy’s care needs before her stay, which included medications and a daily Epsom salt soak for her paw. Fran took excellent care of all of Lucy’s extra needs. At the end of her time with Fran, Lucy was happy as usual, and her paw was fully healed! So appreciative of Fran, Curtis, and Rosie, for their hospitality and excellent care of Lucy!!

Christina was absolutely amazing with my dog and I felt so comfortable leaving her in her hands while I was away. I got tons of photo updates and she was always very responsive when I messaged. I am booking her again immediately for my next weekend away! Truly cannot recommend her enough!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Merion Station on Rover is $49.95 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 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 3,412 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Merion Station. About 90% of Merion Station 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.
