“Elton had a fantastic stay! 🖤 She kept me updated throughout the entire booking and sent lots of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Elton was well cared for, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. I really appreciated her communication, kindness, and how attentive she was to his needs. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“This is our second time leaving Biscuit with Susana, and it was a wonderful experience again! She takes great care of him and sends pictures and videos throughout the day, which is so appreciated. We will definitely leave Biscuit with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Carole was a blessing to find. She watched our dog for an entire week with no issues and every few days she communicated with us by sending us a pic of our furry baby. She has a beautiful outdoor area for dog sitting and has lots of knowledge with dogs. We ended up not having enough food for our dog and she went out and bought a bag for him and we reimbursed her via Zell. She also gave us really good tips on how to train our puppy. My family recommends her and we'll definitely use her again.”
“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 !”
“Very happy! They took great care of our baby and returned him a happy boy. I was very nervous because this was my first time using Rover. We have only ever left him with friends and family. They understood I was nervous and sent me lots of videos and pics to keep us updated. Thank you for taking care of our baby!”
“Melissa was absolutely fantastic! Aleutia loved her time there. She sent the BEST photos I've ever seen of my girl. Truly. Melissa was very specific about what to bring and not to bring for her and was excellent with communication the entire time. I even extended Aleutia's stay another night. She was also very flexible with timeframes. Highly recommend Melissa and will certainly take my girl there again.”
“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.”
“If you want someone to care for your dog like you would, Laura is definitely that person. This is my first time using Rover or any kind of doggy sitter and I couldn’t be happier. I got constant updates on how my dog was doing and I could tell that my dog was very happy. She treated him as if he was her own and that I couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend her and will definitely book her again. Thank you Laura!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our dog Happy, a Chiweenie (Dachshund–Chihuahua mix), with Ms.Li. From the very beginning, communication was great and reassuring. The sitter shared daily updates and photos, which meant so much to us. Happy always looked relaxed, comfortable, and happy, and it was clear he was receiving genuine care and attention. Thanks to this, we were able to fully enjoy our time away without any stress or worries. We are very satisfied and would highly recommend Ms.Li to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog”
“Ilona took great care of my two dogs at the last minute! I usually prefer to do a meet and greet, but circumstances didn’t give me time to do that, and still I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She responded quickly to any text and sent pictures. She has a great fully fenced-in backyard that I could tell they loved in the pictures!”
“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!”
“Was very pleased with Skylar's care! Yuki loves meeting new friends and her family was a perfect fit. Yuki became fast friends with her dog Barley and had a day full of play!”
“Wonderful dog loving family that took excellent care of my 2 dogs (Shiba and Cavalier King Charles) while I was away for 2 weeks. The dogs felt right at home, received lots of affection, and I received pics throughout their stay. Will definitely leave my dogs in their care 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!”
“They took such great care of my Daisy girl and sent lots of pictures every day! You can tell they truly love dogs. Can’t wait to book with them again!”

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 .

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.
