Pretzel really seemed to enjoy her stay with Danielle and Jones, (Danielle's golden retriever). Danielle was very prompt in her communications and flexible when we asked about possible changes to our pick up and drop off times. She sent pictures of Pretzel each day and kept us updated on how her behavior was throughout the stay. We will definitely be boarding with Danielle again soon!

I always feel so good when my dog Tofu stays eith Christopher. He is always so careful with her and makes sure she is always getting attention. I definitely think Tofu misses him when she gets home!!

Nicolle was amazing with our new puppy! We have only had her for 2 weeks, so we were nervous about leaving her with a sitter, but Nicolle put us at ease. She was prompt in her responses both prior to the booking and during the booking and sent photos. Our pup came back happy and well cared for

Melanie was able to watch my dog Sophia on fairly short notice when I had to go out of town. She was flexible and responsive. Sophia had a great time with her dog Pippa and it seemed like she was sad to leave so I know she was in great care.

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.

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.

Very responsive with sharing of puppy photos and videos that was thoughtful and reassuring. The best part was their cavapoo Gau who played so nicely with puppy. We passed by their place a day after finishing our puppy’s first stay with them, and our puppy really wanted to go back there to play with Gau! Will definitely use them again.

Haleigh was amazing to work with! She was very responsive and you could tell she cared a lot for both her animals and yours. My dog did really well with her. She sent photos and kept me updated as well. She pampered him more than I do myself, lol! I had a delay in picking him up, and she accommodated the change in pickup time. I am 100% going to use her again and would recommend her. PS she also gave my dog a biscuit to take home at the end of the stay! :)

Samantha took excellent care of Lina for the 5 days I was out of town. I appreciated her willingness to arrange a meet-up prior to the booking as well as her flexibility and understanding when my departure was pushed back a couple hours. Communication was great throughout the stay. Samantha sent pictures and updates daily. I could tell Lina was happy and having a great time, playing with Samantha's dog Petunia, taking walks, exploring the yard, and cuddling on the couch. I would not hesitate to book Samantha in the future.

Rebecca is awesome! She took care of our elderly dog like it was her own. We really appreciated it. She followed all our instructions and gave us updates and cute pics everyday. It really put our minds at ease. This is a sitter that you can tell, she cares. She was also very flexible and accomodating with our pick up and drop off. Thank you so much for taking care of our Lilly. Our dog was so calm and relaxed when we picked her up. We'll definitely book with Rebecca again in the future.

Haleigh was absolutely fantastic! My dog is a little anxious so we set up the meet and greet where Haleigh explained everything and introduced my pup with hers. The entire time of my trip, I was provided with updates and pictures. Instead of making decisions if she was unsure, Haleigh would reach out and ask such as ,adding cheese to the dry food to make it a little more enticing for my anxious girl. Could not recommend Haleigh more! Super simple drop off and pick up! We even for a complementary dog biscuit for the road!

Melanie took amazing care of our two pups during their three-week stay! They both had such a wonderful time.It was obvious Heidi missed her new friend, Pippa. Melanie was also incredibly responsive and understanding with our Rex, who gets anxious during thunderstorms and fireworks. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our fur babies were safe, loved, well cared for, and having a great time. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Melanie again!

FAQs for Boarding - Merion Station

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.
