“We had such a great experience with Liliana! She took wonderful care of Zoey and was very consistent with updates. I really appreciated the photos and messages. Zoey looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Communicated throughout my dogs stay, made us feel like Pepper was safe and happy. I highly recommend and im grateful for her to watch our dog when previous sitter fell through. Will rebook for future care!”
“I was looking for a pet sitter last minute and Susana responded to my message even it was already late and decided to accept my booking. Kashi and Kaylie had a great time and she took good care of them very well. Thank you so much! I really appreciate you..”
“Zack and Dina's family were so great! They were able to watch my girl for a week, and she seemed like she had such a great time there! They sent pictures and videos of her having fun playing with their dogs and son, and snuggling with them in the evenings. I'm glad I found someone to watch her that I feel comfortable with, and that she's safe and loved while I'm away ?”
“This was first time in 20 years of having dogs that we boarded and couldn’t have been happier and confident to have found Carole through Rover. We went on a 7 day road trip and never worried or had doubts about leaving our German Shepard, Luna, with Carole. We pre-visited her ranch a few weeks prior and had a feeling and no hesitation after the visit that we had made the right choice. Though this was our first time boarding, and with Carole, we now can plan other extended trips and know we have a great place to bring Luna without worry or feeling guilty for leaving her.”
“Monica took really good care of my fur baby for 12 days. She is very good at communicating and sent me pictures throughout my trip. I was at peace and was able to enjoy my vacation worry free. Myles seemed to really enjoy himself and had lots of play time. I would definitely recommend Monica she is definitely the sitter. Myles will definitely be back !”
“Elizabeth was kind and professional. She kept us updated on Akira's progress during the three days she had her via pictures and text messages. She provided a loving family environment for Akira.”
“Melissa & Jhoan are serious about caring for your dog(s). When they saw that I was going to leave Oswald and Maisey with them for 10 days, they wanted to get to know their 'clients' by having them over for a 6-hour playdate beforehand. I live alone so my two Beagles are very important to me as companions. But I was glad and very comfortable leaving Oswald & Maisey with Melissa & Jhoan and it helped me enjoy my trip to Texas. They sent pics and videos every day. Would I use Melissa & Jhoan again? ABSOLUTELY! Their property is a safe and huge place for dogs to run; and they are excellent caretakers of your dogs.”
“Our dogs were well taken care at Laura and Brians! This was the first time our oldest dog was not anxious when picking him up - just happy you see us. Our new little puppy had a blast (as shown in the abundance of pics and videos - which we loved). We have finally found the best place for our dogs when we go out of town. Thank you again Laura and Brian!”
“Ilona was very calm and sweet at drop off. She took really good care of Choo Choo. She got him to eat which is quite a chore. She sent me pictures during his stay. I will definitely use her again.”
“Excellent family to watch your dog. I left my one year old Aussie with them and she loved their yard to run around and the attention of the adults and children. I would highly recommend them and will use them in the future. Daily photos helped my anxiety of not seeing my pup”
“Charlie had a great time with Janice and her boys. Lots of play time and cuddles. And she checked in with me often, sending lots of photos and video while I was away. I’ll happily bring Charlie again!”
“Skylar took wonderful care of our little one these past few days. She kept us updated, and it was clear that our little felt calm and well looked after with her. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Skylar again next time. Highly recommended.”
“My furry babies were well cared for. This was the first time I left my babies for more than a day and Chengcheng gave me peace of mind by sending periodic photos to let me know they were doing good and happy. Will definitely use her services again.”
“This was a long stay for Harlye Quinn and we enjoyed knowing and seeing that she got to hangout and play with other dogs during her stay. Kevin and his family gave a good peace of mind knowing that she was at a wonderful home with friends.”
“Amazing! She sent me many photos of my dog as well as kept me updated with everything he was doing! My dog was really happy in all of the photos and when I got him back as well! I would definitely book again:)”
“Amorn & Adam took care of my Sesame for 4 days and did an amazing job! I could tell that Sesame had a great time and felt very safe in their care! They sent lots of updates and photos/videos, which I’m grateful for, and were very flexible with pick up/drop off. I would 100% recommend them, and look forward to connecting with them again!”
“Ivy was amazing with Boomer. We had a last minute change in the schedule and she accommodated us right away, made special arrangements to have Boomer dropped off so we can make our flight. She sent us lots and lots of pictures and videos of Boomer all the time, and they always put a smile on the kids’ faces! We will most definitely use Ivy again, and refer her to all of our family and friends!”
“I am very pleased on how well Lola is taken care of when she is with Nicole. From the start I’ve always felt like Lola is treated like one of the family based on the way she was taken care of. I know that Lola is in good hands when I am away and in the care of Nicole and her family. Nicole is always available to take care of Lola when I need her and I really appreciate the great service and care.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Acton 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 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 5,608 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Acton. 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 Acton 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 Acton 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 Acton 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 Acton.
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 Acton 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 CA 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.
