“Julia was amazing. We had an out of town wedding and she took care of our Finn like her own. She has a little Yorkie named Archie and Finn and he had some much fun together. I was so relieved by Julia's updates and pictures that she sent. Finn loves to walk and she took him out for many walks in her very walkable neighborhood. I highly recommend Julia for your next getaway.”
“Richard made us feel so comfortable leaving Roxy with him and his family. We received pictures during the day of our Roxy feeling very relaxed and at home!! We are so glad to have found Richard!!”
“Had my dog and my son’s dog there for a weekend stay. They were well cared for and happy. They were exhausted when they came home 😊 would definitely recommend Meaghan and would not hesitate to use her services again.”
“Lorraine did an excellent job taking care of our dog for a week! Our dog is rescue who has been with us for just a year so we were nervous about his first separation, but his stay with Lorraine was wonderful. She provided daily updates, photos and kept our pup on his schedule. After his stay, he adjusted back home without any trouble. We definitely recommend Lorraine and would rebook with her in the future.”
“I had a short notice request due to a family member's health issue. Barbara was quick to respond and accept - much to my relief! It was great knowing Sophie was in good hands while I took care of family. Thank you!”

“My girl came home happy and she didn't want to leave her vacation! Erica was communicative and sent a picture or video almost every day which I told her gave huge comfort to my toddler. She delivered all of Coco Chanel's meds without incidence (and even gave her bi-weekly subcutaneous shot). Thank you Erica, we will book with you again!”
“Matt did a wonderful job taking care of Birdie. We appreciated the daily updates and the great care, attention, and the multiple daily walks he provided. We look forward to using him again for future boarding needs.”

“Yolanda was great with my dog, Faith. She was kept busy, active and clearly well cared for. She was with her for a week and we got daily updates, pictures, videos of all the fun she was having. I was worried she may not want to come home! Yolanda was easy to work with and coordinate drop off, pick up etc. I would definitely use Yolanda again.”
“Goose loves staying with Megan & Vitaliy! When I picked him up, he looked back at their house and whimpered. I know he had a great time and I had peace of mind knowing he was in good care! Thank you!”
“Very nice guy. We love our dog, he is like one of our children. We usually take him everywhere we go. John made us comfortable, and sent pictures for my daughter to reinsure her that he was all right.I will definitely use him again if available .”
About: I have had dogs and all sorts of pets in my house my whole life. I have experience with dogs of all types and ages from training puppies only a couple months old to caring for very old dogs. I constantly take care of neighbors and friends dogs when they’re away and I can’t wait to love on yours as well. 💗 I am a rising senior student-athlete at WCU and have a good amount of during the day most days to walk dogs as well as plenty of time most weekends to dog sit/house sit. I always keep on eye on the pet and in the same room as me if dog/housesitting. I give them plenty of love and attention and let them out and for walks whenever needed and instructed. I will love each and every pet I work with as my own!
About: Who said dogs were the only pets that know how to do tricks? My cat’s (strong) drive for food has helped me in teaching her how to sit, and put up with all of the love I give her. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each cat’s unique personality, even the aloof fur babies. Whether they’re playful and outgoing or shy and independent, I take the time to let them warm up at their own pace.🩵🐈⬛ Watching my boyfriend’s high-energy Rottweiler/Bully mix has given me hands-on experience with a dog that keeps myself, and everyone within a mile radius on their toes! Through a strong amount of patience and unwavering consistency (even with all of his cuteness), I’ve taught him ways to help him develop better manners and impulse control. I’ve learned how to channel his energy into learning new tricks. I’ve become confident in finding ways to help even the most energetic dogs settle down and relax. 💕🐶 I work part time during the week as a support staff for adults with autism. I am available every Monday and Wednesday after 4pm, Tuesdays after 1pm, and Thursdays after 2pm. 😊 I ensure all tiny items a puppy or teething dog can choke on are put away. Leashing before walking outside is a must, even with the most well behaved animals. Double checking that the doors are closed is essential, and will never feed your pet food/treats that have not been approved by you.
About: Growing up on a farm I have had experience with animals my whole life. I have had small dogs of my own since I was born and have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I can accommodate almost any pet! I am fully available Thursday evening, Friday-Sunday all day and night. I will have time to give your pets full attention! I will be available to take they out and walk as often as requested. I have a large fenced yard and two small friendly dogs to keep your company or they can be kept separate if you wish. I take the time to ensure all pets are safe and attended to.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in West Chester is $51
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Chester
Avery is amazing! Truly. She watched out pup at her home for a week while we were on vacation. Everything went beyond smoothly and our pup had the time of her life. It’s like she got a vacation too. Avery gave her so much love and attention. She is also an excellent communicator! We got photos and updates everyday. We are so grateful to her!!
We absolutely love this sitter! Our "pup" Rocky always has a great time, no matter how long we leave him. He always comes back smelling fresh and in amazingly great spirits. This is not always the case with other sitters. Danyele and her entire family are amazing and a wonderful home-away-from home for Rocky. Thanks Danyele!
Melina took great care of my pup Riley! I needed someone very last minute for an entire week when my original pet care fell through. She responded quickly and I was able to get it figured out. She communicated great, sent updates every day, and I could tell Riley had a great time. Will be using her again in the future!
Kayla is the best!! We needed someone to watch our puppy, and she was so professional, warm, and friendly. As new puppy parents, leaving him with someone new was very frightening, but Kayla made us feel comfortable and safe, knowing our puppy was in great hands. He LOVES her and bonded with her immediately. It’s amazing to know he has another home with Kayla, and we will definitely book her again.
We were very happy with Beau’s 2-week “staycation” with Meghan. She understood what he needs in terms of affection, play time, and exercise and made sure all his needs were met. Beau has little interest in other dogs, in general, but he and her dog definitely bonded during his stay. We highly, highly recommend Meghan as a dog sitter.
Cyndi took great care of my son’s lab. She was VERY flexible. It was a last minute reservation and she graciously extended an extra day. Nellie had a great time playing with her dog and loved the back yard. Cyndi made our emergency situation not be as stressful. I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again!
My dog Oliver loved staying with Meghan! From the very beginning, she was a fantastic communicator—quick to respond, clear, and thoughtful. She made sure my dog felt completely comfortable and at ease, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away! She sent updates with photos and notes. It was clear she enjoyed having Oliver there and treated him like her own. I’m so grateful to have found her and would definitely book again. Highly, highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in West Chester on Rover is $59.94 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,066 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Chester. 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.
95% of West Chester 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 West Chester 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 West Chester 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 West Chester.
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 West Chester 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.
