“I had such a great experience with Juliana and couldn’t recommend her more highly. Leaving my dog while traveling is never easy, but she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free from the start. She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about my dog’s well-being. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me feel connected even while I was away.”
“Dave provided outstanding care for my French Bulldog. His frequent updates gave me complete peace of mind, and it’s clear he treats every pet with genuine love and attention. I’ll definitely book with him again without hesitation!”
“Emelie was flexible with drop off and pick up times, which was very helpful. We got daily pics and updates on how Tatum was doing, Emelie was very communicative which was comforting. Nice house, and yard, so I’m sure Tatum had a good stay.”
“Amy was amazing with my dog, Roxy!! I highly recommend using her. Roxy is an older mini goldendoodle and Amy was so accommodating and sweet with her. I got daily updates with photos. I felt so comfortable and Amy made the process super smooth. I booked her last minute and so glad I did. I highly recommend and would use her again!”
“We will definitely be checking for Rebecca’s availability next time we need a dog sitter she was so great with our pup. She sent a lot of updates and pictures and treated Jackie like her own. Thanks again Rebecca!”
“Aimee was absolutely amazing and is, without a doubt, the best dog sitter we’ve met so far! She took care of our dog for ten days, and from the very beginning, we knew our pup was in great hands. 😁 She has such a warm, caring personality, and it was clear how much love and attention she gave our dog. Throughout the entire stay, she sent frequent updates with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was wonderful to see how happy, relaxed, and well cared for our dog was every day. 😌 We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Aimee went above and beyond, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and genuinely dedicated to caring for their pets. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again! ☺️”
“Rhea and her husband were absolutely incredible! They were so accommodating and communicative throughout the entire sitting. They sent constant picture updates, kept me informed about potty breaks, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure my pup was comfortable. Most impressively, they always responded in under a minute—such peace of mind. This was by far one of the best experiences I’ve had on Rover, and I’m so glad we connected. They’re true professionals who are clearly passionate about what they do. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable care.”
“Enes and Stephanie took great care of my little one during his first in home boarding experience. They made sure that my little one was comfortable and safe. Great communication while I was away sent an abundance of updated photos and treated my little one like he was a part of their family. I will definitely”
“Hollie was a great caretaker for my dog, Odin. She has great communication and gave me udpates and sent me pictures constantly. Her dog Jovi is very sweet as well. Odin had a really good time there, for sure!”
“Allison and the girls took such great care of Cookie! As first time Rover users, Allison was patient with my husband and provided regular check-ins, updates and pictures! It was clear Cookie had a nice time and was much less stressed than when we typically board her. We look forward to booking again with Allison and Kevin in the future!”
“Shandara took care of my dog Freckles, as well as another dog, and her own for a few days. She did a meet and greet, sent me updates constantly, and was very professional. I would have her sit again for me.”
“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!”
“Donte was great with our 1.5yo Great Dane! We felt comfortable leaving him for a week and we were even able to add on some training to work on his leash skills while we were away.”
“Violet had the best time staying with Michael again! While we were away, we got frequent updates and pictures of her playing and hanging around his shop, and she got along great with his dogs”
“Jennifer and her family took awesome care of our puppy (a 3 month old Dachshund). It is apparent from the second you meet Jennifer that she is a lover of all furry creatures and we felt immediately at ease. While we were away, Jennifer sent frequent pictures and updates of our puppy and his activities so we knew what he was up to and that he was being loved and cared for. We feel lucky to have found Jennifer - 11/10!!”
“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.”

Emma was fantastic with our 5 month old puppy, Tatum. Tatum typically follows me everywhere when we are at home. This was the first time leaving her somewhere so I was a little nervous about how she would do. When I went to pick Tatum up I thought she would be so excited to see me and I picked her up but she was itching to get down and play more with Tofu (Emma’s dog). 😂 I could tell she had a great time. Highly recommend!
George was amazing with my pup. My 5-lb Yorkie is quite anxious, but seemed at ease with George from drop off. I received plenty of pics and updates. My dog was quite relaxed at pickup, and George worked with me as I was a bit early for my pickup window. Would highly recommend - George really does seem like a "dog whisperer". 5 stars!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Villanova on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,342 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Villanova. 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.
94% of Villanova 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 Villanova 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 Villanova 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 Villanova.
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 Villanova 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 PA 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.
