“I cannot speak highly enough of my expirience with Mel and Shilohs stay. I felt at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. I received updates and photos of my dog while I was gone and saw how much fun ahe was having. Mel was a great help and I will plan to use her in the future!”
“Derek was fantastic. Super communicative and it was clear that he truly loved spending time with our pup. That means the world to us. We will definitely book him again!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have had my own since college. I’ve owned a beagle, a couple of pit mix rescues, a boxer and currently a terrier mix rescue who is about 1.5 years old. I work in education, so I’m off for summers, so offer plenty of time, attention and play time with our super-friendly 1.5 y/o terrier pooch I have a fenced yard with plenty of play space and a sociable, playful dog. I can crate-train if desired. Available for walks 2X daily
“Maria was absolutely amazing taking care of Mac. She made sure he got enough exercise and playtime while also giving him space to wind down and relax. Mac ending up being on prescription diet during the boarding and Maria followed it perfectly! I was so thankful she was able to watch him and I will definitely be booking again. I also really appreciated the updates throughout the day about the various activities she did with Mac. Additionally, her dog Cookie was super playful with Mac despite the large difference in their size. Mac truly seemed like he was having a great time which brought me piece of mind for his stay.”
“Juliana and her family embraced Aiden like one of their own. He was surrounded by love, constant attention, and she went above and beyond to make us feel secure and kept him safe. She kept in constant contact throughout the day with photo updates as well. I will work with Juliana EVERY single time as there is no one better who will value and love your pup as much she does!”
“Christopher is such an amazing dog sitter. My dog definitely has separation anxiety and Christopher handles it wonderfully by giving him cuddles, long walks, and making my dog feel like he’s in his hone away from home! I would never go to anyone else again - he is so fantastic! My dog actually is sad to leave which I love!”
“Very pleased! This was our first time using a Petsitter outside of our family/friends and we couldn’t have been more impressed. I know our pup was in super hands. Very appreciative of Kerry’s updates, and we could tell that Riggs felt comfortable and happy the whole time we were away. Kerry is wonderful!”
“Mary Took.great care of Tyson while I was away! She sent photos everyday! I knew Tyson was well taken care of. I will definitely use her services again!”
“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!”
“Kristin was wonderful with Charlie, and when I had a slight change in plans was able to accommodate them very easily. Was always responsive and sent me lots of photos from the weekend. Will definitely send Charlie back!”
“Avalon and I had a wonderful experience with Yuhan and her family! Extremely friendly and accommodating and very easy to work with. Avalon loved her time there (as evidenced by her complete lack of anxiety when I picked her up, something she’s struggled with in the past) and I will definitely be reaching out to Yuhan for all future dog-boarding needs.”
“Great communication and a great sitter for Salsa. Salsa loved her time with Sprinkles and Jasmine. I definitely will use Jasmine again. Salsa enjoyed her adventure to the dog park.”

“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! :)”

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.
