“Rhea was absolutely amazing. I cannot recommend enough. Great communication and really good questions when any issues came up. I will be using them again for sure”
“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! ☺️”

“I was so thankful to Allison and her daughters for taking such good care of my senior dog . My dog starts to become agitated the moment I leave him . I was so worried but I received a text and picture about an hour and a half later showing my dog relaxed and cuddling with one of her little girls❤️I received regular updates and pictures. My worries about leaving him were quickly put to rest . Allison and the girls treated him like their own. I am forever grateful. I cannot recommend Allison enough. 10 stars !!”
“This was my first time boarding my 11 month old puppy. They were wonderful with her, she enjoyed herself and they frequently sent pictures of her so I wouldn’t be worried.”
“Rebecca went above and beyond through the entire process. It was my first time using Rover and she exceeded my expectations. She is SO sweet and Sydney enjoyed her vacation with her. I will definitely be scheduling with her again.”
“Amy was fantastic - we instantly felt comfortable with her husband and her (and, more importantly, so did the dog!). She was very detail oriented, sent pictures throughout Champ's short stay and made sure Champ got plenty of exercise. I also appreciated her policy not to take multiple dogs at once. We will definitely be repeating with Amy - the whole experience was great!”
“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!”
“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!”

“Bacon had a great weekend with Ryan and his family! I could tell he was very well taken care of. Bacon loved playing endless amounts of fetch and going for walks in the nice Spring weather. It is a great feeling knowing your pet is well cared for and loved when you have travel plans.”
“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.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Villanova
This is the first time boarding our 12 years old dog with Emma for over a week. We visited her first for a meet and greet and I was immediately comfortable. Emma has her own dogs and she has a dog training business. Her communication was very good and she sent pictures during the week. I would not hesitate to use Emma in the future.
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!
This was Tyson's second time boarding with Ulke and Andrew and this stay was for 3 weeks. As soon as I pulled up into their driveway, Tyson became very excited. He clearly knew where he was and couldn't wait to get out of the car to see them and their dog, Leo! Ulke and Andrew are both super friendly and incredibly kind. They truly treat Tyson like family, which gives us peace of mind especially during a longer trip. They kept us informed throughout the entire stay with frequent messages and photos. It's such a stress free environment for Tyson, we are so grateful to have found this couple who we trust completely. We highly recommend and will definitely book again!
Stephanie proved to be an outstanding sitter for our two Australian Labradoodles. Upon arrival at her home, one notes a massive fenced-in yard that provides people and pets a large area for play and recreation. Her home is beautiful, and upon meeting Stephanie, one immediately detects she is a warm and attentive sitter who sincerely loves pets. Her furry son, Piper, is extremely friendly toward human visitors and their pets. During our pets' stay, Stephanie made sure they spent plenty of time outdoors, and she took them on walks on multiple occasions. She sent us photos of them every day, and every photo demonstrated they were happy, comfortable, and content. My family members consistently felt our furry children were in superb and massively capable hands. Without one iota of hesitation or reservation, I strongly recommend Stephanie for all your pet sitting and other needs. You will be very glad you placed your precious pets in her care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Villanova on Rover is $35 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 3,431 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.
93% 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.
