“Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!”
“Kanade and her husband were such amazing sitters for my 2.5 year old Pom mix, Marsha. They treated her like she was one of their own and were so communicative with me. I'll definitely asking Kanade to watch her again soon. Thank you again!”
“Kristina was awesome! She sent daily updates and pictures which I really appreciated, took Mika on daily walks, and really made me feel like she gave her special attention and care! We look forward to using Kristina in the future!”
“Virginia was an amazing Rover for our 2 dogs, Cleo and Louis! They seemed incredibly comfortable and loved in their few days with her. Virginia sent us photos and made sure to keep us updated on how they were doing.”
“I left my pup for two weeks with Jasmine while I traveled internationally, and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She is so responsive and attentive, sending constant updates and videos, and my dog clearly loves spending time with her (as well as her adorable Dalmatian Sprinkles), I would recommend her without reservations to anyone and everyone. Thank you for everything Jasmine!”
“What an amazing dog sitter! It’s clear our puppy loved her time with Donte; shes been a little mopey since she’s been back home lol Donte would make sure to give us a peace of mind since it was our first time boarding our puppy girl; he made sure to send us pictures and videos of our pup while we were away. Very good communicator and we hope to have him as our dog sitter in the future! Highly recommend Donte!”
“Joy was such a wonderful sitter and provided a warm, safe and friendly home away from home for our dog. She would send frequent updates and pictures to let us know how our dog was doing and was always quick to respond if I messaged her first. Would highly recommend!”
“We are glad to have found Brooke in the area to care for our two dogs when we are away! Videos are helpful and our dogs seem to have a good time!!!”
“Alice is an amazing sitter! From our first interaction, she was thorough and diligent about making sure she adhered to my dog’s needs and routine. She checked in frequently and made my anxious dog feel safe and at home. I would absolutely book her again!”
“Yuhan did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 shy dogs. I was very pleased with seeing her interaction with the dogs during our meet and greet. She kept me informed of their behavior throughout their stay and it was comforting to see pictures demonstrating that they were doing well. I would definitely book her services again if need be.”
“Liam was great! Left my dog for the first time to go on vacation and he sent me multiple texts a day with pictures to assure me things were going smoothly. He was very flexible and accommodating. My dog loved him and will no doubt book with Liam again!”
“I needed a last-minute dog sitter, and Emelie was everything I could have asked for and more! She was extremely responsive, flexible, and communicative! I greatly appreciated that she kept me updated with pictures and texts during my trip. Will definitely book with Emelie again!”
“Deena is extremely caring, precise, responsive and communicative. She accommodated last minute changes and took great care of my furry friend. 100% recommend!”
“Christopher really put my mind at ease when I felt anxious about leaving Mochi for an extended boarding stay in an unfamiliar city. Mochi got more exercise than he ever gets with me and Christopher’s family’s home is beautiful and dog friendly (lots of doggie toys, cuddles on sofa, etc). I was a little worried about encounters with other dogs on walks (Mochi can be selectively dog aggressive). Christopher handled him like a champ and had no issues at all. There was a little trouble with medications, but in Chris’s defense- Mochi really doesn’t like the honkin’ large intercepter chew and it can be tough to fool him into eating it. I was concerned that I found pieces of the medicine mixed in with Mochi’s food in the big food bag- I believe Mochi just didn’t eat it and Chris mixed the leftover food (with medicine) back into the food bag. Overall I am very happy with Christopher and would use him again. Highly recommend!”
“David is clearly such a kind soul who knows and cares a lot about the dogs he works with. My 2 dogs had the pleasure of staying at his home while we went on vacation. He made me feel more than comfortable in his ability to care for my dogs and even asked me a few questions to double check he knew all he needed to know. He was easy to get in touch with, sent me pictures and kept me updated! He was also extremely accommodating with pick up/drop off timing. My dogs came home happy. I would 100% ask David to care for my dogs again. He's great with dogs and quite a pleasure to speak with. 5 Stars!”
“Eric was the BEST! I went international for 10 days and never had to worry. Joey came back happy and I knew he was loved. Thank you, Eric! Consider yourself added to my Rover rolodex. :)”
“Hands down, Christina was the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! She was friendly during our meet and greet and was prepared for all of my questions, especially regarding Toby’s sensitivity with small kids and some men. I never had any doubt that Toby was receiving expert and loving care with her, and I definitely hope to book with her again!!”
“Arianna & Andrew were very friendly, and quick to respond. Scheduling pic up and drop off was super easy with their flexibility. Lots of pic updates of a very happy dog. My dog enjoyed the company of theirs, and all the toys. Ill def rebook??”

Danielle was a communicative and caring sitter for our dog Ziti when we did a week of boarding while on vacation! She was easy to coordinate with, and sent many updates and photos while we were gone which we appreciated. Her dog Marn was super sweet too, and they were fast friends. We would 100% book with Danielle again, and recommend her to others!
Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!
This was our dog Ollie’s third time with Alice and not only was he in great hands with her, we were also so grateful for her flexibility with our ever adjusting schedule. It’s hard leaving your pup behind, even for a short while but it helps so much to have someone reliable, professional, and flexible! Thanks again Alice!!
Madison was absolutely amazing with my dog during a 12-day stay! From the very beginning, her communication was excellent. She kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog and treated them like one of her own. Madison is incredibly kind, patient, and loving, and my dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Madison to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. I'll definitely be booking with her again!
Haleigh was amazing! She made sure my timid pup was comfortable. I really appreciated that she offered a meet and greet beforehand, this made it so much easier for my girl to warm up and feel comfortable with her. She kept me updated with adorable pictures and was amazing with flexibility in scheduling/pickup times. I would 100% recommend Haleigh and will plan to book her again!
As always, Spencer and Nellie took amazing care of our dog Hazel. This stay was for 8 nights and we had complete peace of mind while we were traveling. It's clear how much care and thought both Spencer and Nellie put into everything that they do. Their daily updates were detailed, transparent, and always included fun photos. They even celebrated Hazel's gotcha day while we were gone. I cannot recommend them enough, they are the sitters we trust most with our girl!
Wow! This was our first time using Rover, and I am so grateful that we found Melanie. Our pup was instantly at ease in her home, with her, and with her delightful dog Pippa. Communication was regular and easy, and we got updates and pics (but also not too many). We have already made plans for a return stay. Thank you Melanie!!!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Merion Station on Rover is $49.95 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 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 3,517 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Merion Station. About 89% 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.
