I do not have enough words to say how incredible Jessica was with my anxious corgi, Nugget! She was so attentive to his command words, what makes him nervous/comfortable and she even thought of things I hadn’t considered to make him feel comfortable there. She most definitely treated him like her own and he absolutely adores her! (And he is not fond of many people) she was wonderful about sending updates and keeping us connected while we were away. My sweet little boy absolutely loves her and we will be coming back soon!

Melissa L is the greatest. She went above and beyond to ensure that my pet had the best care. Her communication & updates were amazing & helped to provide my family with comfort during our vacation. 5 stars is not enough she deserves 1,000. Look no further. She’s the best!!

Matthew cared for my dogs with love and attention. They love playing at his house. He makes them part of his family. It was especially wonderful knowing that through the storm he was cuddling my dogs and making sure that they were not scared. I enjoyed all of the pictures and hearing about my dogs while I was away.

I truly could not have had a better experience! We have never left our dog alone before, and I was not worried the entire time! We got so many pictures and updates throughout the day, we didn’t worry once. Our girl was so happy, she didn’t even want to come back home. We will absolutely be booking again!!

Bianca was a wonderful host on a short notice trip. She took great care of my 5 month old goldendoodle and gave me updates throughout the visit. Her dogs also got along well with mine and I think they became good buddies. Thanks, Bianca!

About: I can do it all from big breeds, to small breeds; from happy breeds, to sad breeds. I’ve also got experience in tending to aggressive animals or animals who react out of fear so don’t worry! Growing up, I had an aggressive pup who people refused to come around and it made things hard on me, I want to give ALL pet parents a chance to feel safe knowing their aggressive or reactive dog is in good hands. I know the do’s and the don’t’s! Animals are a passion and if I could have every animal in the world, I would! Give me a shot to take care of your baby and you won’t regret it! I’m an active duty military member, but I work in a 24hr shop so my schedule shifts a lot. However, that is no issue for me as long as I have a heads up from my clients! I will work with them to create a schedule that best suits both me and the animals! Your animal is now a priority of mine(: I have a 6” vinyl privacy fence with a very large backyard. I have 3 dogs of my own and can accommodate some animals in my home. However, I will need to have your animals formally meet mine before making that decision so that we don’t put anyone in harms way. I will also request an updated shot record for any animals entering my home and will provide you with the same(:

Kelly you are an AMAZING dog watcher! CeCe may have suffered anxiety from leaving you. Said you treated her “like a queen”. Your son and husband were so sweet too. Not knowing you before I came, now you’re a friend! I would highly recommend you to anyone and plan to bring CeCe again??????

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for pups from their playful puppy stages all the way through their senior years. Because of that, I’m comfortable with all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, a calming presence, or gentle senior support, I’ve got them covered. I work night shift, which means my days are completely free for pet care. I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, dropins, and giving your pet lots of attention. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe right away. I keep their routine consistent, give lots of attention, playtime, and regular potty breaks to keep them relaxed and happy.

About: With years of experience in high-end dog training, sitting, and walking, I offer more than just pet care—I provide expert, personalized attention for your dog. I understand canine behavior on a deep level, ensuring your pup feels safe, engaged, and loved while you're away. Whether it’s reinforcing good manners, going on structured walks, or providing calm companionship, I treat every dog like my own. I currently work from home with a flex work schedule, which makes me available for pet care anytime. I can work my schedule to be tailored to your pets needs. I have a large back yard and dogs of my own to keep your fur baby company. For walks, I tailor each to your fur baby’s needs, spending more time outside with high energy dogs, and taking shorter walks for older pets. All walks and care come with the most snuggles.

Our dog Dobby just finished her first tryout stay with Daniela. It seems like she had a good time and there weren't any big problems. Daniela kept us in the loop and sent lots of pics during the days. Dobby seems pretty happy with her stay, so we are as well. We will definitely be getting in touch with Daniela again for further dog watching.

Loya was absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend her! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She even took the time to do little training sessions with my puppy, Honey, which I truly appreciated. It felt good knowing Honey was not only well cared for, but also enjoying her own little ‘vacation’ while I was away. I will definitely be rebooking her anytime I need a sitter. She’s a gem!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Swansea

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Swansea on Rover is $35.52 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 889 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Swansea. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

90% of Swansea sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Swansea landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Swansea home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Swansea.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Swansea sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

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 IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
