“Kyla was great! She offered to meet with us before booking our boarding and sent pictures of our pup while we were away. We would recommend her to our friends and family who need someone to care for their four legged friends anytime!”
“Excellent experience! We needed last minute overnight care for our two dogs and Kexin and Carlos were great. Very communicative and sent pictures/videos throughout, but also sent us home with a couple printed photos of our dogs enjoying their time. Their dog and cats were friendly with our dogs as well. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you!”
“Misael was great for our big dog Dozer. Super friendly. Willing to do w.e it takes to make sure everything works out. Dozer is not an easy dog to watch and misael knew exactly how to handle dozer which is saying alot for a 74 pound sheepadoodle who has massive separation anxiety. Now im confident knowing if we have to have him watched again for a trip Misael will be my first and only choice. If you have a big dog that's hard to handle he's your guy! Thank you so very much for going out of your way for us and Dozer.”
About: I have rescued 2 senior dogs in the past and understand their unique needs. One of my senior dogs and others I have cared for struggled with anxiety and required a quiet calm environment. I do work full time but am able to work from home at times or can check in through the day and adjust my schedule as needed. If I was caring for your pet in your home I would strive to maintain the schedule and routines that is most familiar to them. If your pet is in my home, it is a quiet calm environment with a fenced in yard that allows freedom to run and explore. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for taking walks.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Matt and Patty provided for our Golden Retriever during the 10 nights we were out of the country. From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care. We were able to visit their home beforehand, and they have a wonderful setup, including a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for him to play. Throughout our trip, Matt and Patty sent us frequent updates and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. They took him on daily walks around the neighborhood, gave him lots of attention, and it was very clear that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What really stood out to us was how they handled a day when he wasn’t feeling well and developed some stomach issues. Matt immediately contacted us, proactively made an appointment with the vet, and made sure we were comfortable with him taking our dog in to be seen. Afterward, Matt and Patty followed the vet’s recommendations closely and even cooked rice and beef for his meals for several days while his stomach recovered. They truly cared for him as if he were their own. When we returned, we came home to a very happy puppy, and we could tell he had been loved and well cared for the entire time. We are so excited to have found Matt and Patty. Finding people you can completely trust with your dog while you’re away is incredibly important, and we feel very fortunate to have found such reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring sitters. We would absolutely recommend them and will not hesitate to have them care for our dog again!”
“This was the second boarding service with Stacy. Stacy was very considerate and did an incredible job of taking care of Charlie and Joey. I know my dogs loved to staying with Stacy because she has a fenced backyard and they love to running around off leash anytime they want. Highly recommend her!”
“Dobbs is family to me, so finding someone I trust isn't easy. Melissa exceeded every expectation. From the moment I dropped him off until I picked him up, she kept me updated with photos and messages that showed him happy, comfortable, and having a wonderful time. Seeing him playing, relaxing, and making new friends made it clear he wasn't just being watched—he was being cared for and loved. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Melissa, for treating my boy like one of your own. We'll definitely be back.”
“Eddie was kind and gentle with Abby, and even sent along terrific photos of Abby’s adventures playing with the family and with their beautiful malamute in their fenced in yard and spacious, immaculate home. Abby came back wagging her tail and clearly well-taken care of. Thank you, Eddie! We will definitely book you again.”
“Someone recently told me that they never met a Peggy who isn’t wonderful, and after leaving our dog with Peggy M. and her family for a long weekend, I completely agree! They were so kind, flexible, sent consistent pictures and updates, and our pup looked genuinely torn to leave their home when we picked her up - so much so that she said goodbye to each family member individually. I cannot recommend Peggy enough - if you are looking for a fun, family environment that will love your dog like their own while you’re away, she is your Rover.”
“Alexandra is so sweet. It is the third time that Bruna has stayed with her. When she noticed where she was, she pulled to go to her, waving her tail full of happiness. Alexandra sent us Pictures and videos of Bruna and gave us updates. Bruna will stay with her on our next trip.”
“Our pup a wonderfully meet and greet and 2 day stay! Nick and Veronica sent lots of photo updates which we loved! They even brought her to our wedding venue for a photo op! All the stars for these 2! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”
“Qulynda was great! She took such great care of our dog while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. I would highly recommend using Qulynda if you’re looking for someone to care for your furry one!”
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities from young kittens and puppies to senior pets, tiny pups to large breeds like Cane Corsos. I’m active and love walks and playtime, but I’m just as happy providing a calm, comfortable environment for older or more laid back pets. I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for based on their individual needs. I am currently per diem and self employed so I have a lot of free time to pet sit, I have a small dog myself and he loves the company I live in a safe community, we have a dog park for dogs to potty or play, or I can take them for walks. If you’re okay with them making friends with my neighbors pets we I can take them out for play dates. I will make sure to touch base with you on any concerns, allergies, or needs of your furbaby, I do offer to give them a bath if needed ($10). & will update you through the day on how they’re doing!
“Sierra is great! She was so communicative while we were out of town. She made sure our pup was well taken care of and was gentle in letting him acclimate to her house and other dogs. We’re so happy to have found her!”
“I was so nervous to leave Jackson with another family for a trip of mine as he had always stayed with my family. Kaylan and Kenny were amazing during the whole process and provided me updates and pictures everyday. Jackson had an amazing time playing in the yard and with their dog. I will be booking with them again for another trip, and I am so relieved to be able to have a fun & safe place for my best bud!”
About: I’ve cared for animals for as long as I can remember and have experience with dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, fish, and more. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, cleaning, nail/hair care, and maintaining their normal routines. I’m also very comfortable with anxious, energetic, stubborn, or easily overwhelmed animals and know how to handle each pet based on their individual personality, age, and needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like my own. I do have a full time job myself on the weekdays till 6pm however am free if anyone needs a night sitter/walker/ or needs me to stop by feed/bath or cleanup after the animals. I am free most weekends however and could help out whenever Saturday and Sundays I do live in an apartment however it is pretty spacious with just me living in it, there multiple rooms and I have easy access to an outside yard to walk any animal. There is also a park right down the street if there's a bigger dog that needs a longer walk I typically walk about 2 miles myself either way and wouldn't mind a walking buddy. I am also a neat freak in a sense where I don't have clutter-full items hanging around anywhere so there would be nothing concerning for any animal to get to or eat
“My dogs had a wonderful time with Paula and her family; she has a great fenced backyard with lots of sniff potential for my hounds; and they enjoyed the wonderful doggie friends they got to play with. I appreciated the photos sent to me showing them all hanging out together; I don't think they wanted to leave! I felt good knowing my dogs were in good hands.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Blackstone
We are so glad to have chosen Kexin and Carlos to watch our dog while we were on vacation for a week! They shared tons of pictures and videos and on rainy days, even made special enrichment activities to tire him out a bit. You can tell they really love dogs and their own dog is a great, playful host as well. We will definitely reach out to them in the future when we need our fur baby watched!
I can’t recommend him enough! He took such amazing care of my two dogs, and the service was absolutely wonderful. He sent pictures and updates throughout their stay, which gave me so much peace of mind and made being away from my fur babies a little easier. He even went the extra mile by making sure they got their special dog food and were fed exactly as needed. It’s never easy leaving your pets with someone else, but knowing they were in such good hands made all the difference. I’m so grateful for the care, attention, and love he showed my dogs. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person to board their pets. Amazing service from start to finish! 🐾❤️
We really appreciate Maribel taking Astro in on such short notice. She kept us updated every day with pictures and updates from their walks, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Astro looked so happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Maribel was also very accommodating when we needed to extend Astro’s stay. Her communication, flexibility, and care for Astro were greatly appreciated. We would absolutely recommend Maribel and would happily book with her again!
This was my first time using both Rover and Angelisa. I selected her based on her past reviews and proximity to me. She was a true gem. My Stevie was well loved during her staycation. Angelisa sent daily texts and photos. I will absolutely use her again the next time I’m in the area visiting my son.
Wow! Nancy is the best…Cooper (our part dog/part human labradoodle) had a great meet & greet and then felt right at home a couple weeks later when he stayed at “Camp Nancy.” We got several daily pics where Coop looked so at home. It is clear that Nancy is a total dog person and knows how to cater to just what your pet needs. Daily walks thru her neighborhood made Cooper happy. I would definitely recommend Nancy. Really, really incredible Rover sitter!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Blackstone can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Blackstone 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 Blackstone.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Blackstone. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Blackstone 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 MA 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
