I highly recommend Susan and will definitely use her again when I have to leave my pooch in someone else's care!!”

“Amanda was amazing! She and her two boys played with and took great care of my dog. She had to leave for vacation the day I was returning from vacation. She dropped off my dog off at my house and made sure she was fed and had fresh water. I am booking her again!”

“Adonis was with Julie for a 2 week stay and had a blast! He quickly settled into her house and almost immediately took ownership of protecting her from all squirrels and other animals outside the house. He loves to play and Julie was awesome about sending us pictures of his stay with her. She was great with his food and even went the extra mile to feed him alternate food when he was not eating one day. Adonis bonded with Julie and we would love to have him stay with her again!”
“I left my Pug with Gabrielle on a Sunday to Tuesday. Gabrielle was very conscientious, answered all questions, listened well and was very nice to both Wilbur and me. He obviously has a nice way with dogs and sent photos and video of Wilbur at random times. Wilbur was well taken care of, walked dependably, and was happy with Gabrielle and co. I highly recommend Gabrielle and look forward to seeing him again!”
“Peter and his family are absolutely fantastic. They are so accomidating with drop off and pick up times. We know our dog loves staying with them because he practically jumps out of the window when we pull up to their house! There are definitely at the top of our list when we need a sitter.”

“My Stormie so enjoyed her stay with Laura! Stormie is a very anxious dog but she bonded with Laura quickly. I received tons of pics of Stormie on walks, relaxing in the house and doing zoomies in the paddock. Made me very happy, I will be leaving Stormie with Laura again soon.”
“Mary is simply wonderful! She took such good care of my neurotic but lovable 11 year old girl. Bambi very quickly became quite attached and comfortable with her. Mary is a true dog lover and approaches them with love and patience. I got great pics and updates throughout the stay. I highly recommend her for dog sitting and I will definitely hire her again.”
“Julia did a great job taking care of our dog. She sent us pictures of our dog with her dog and another client's smaller dog -- all 3 dogs looked very happy. She even noticed that our dog's nails were too long, and she asked permission to clip the nails -- we said yes because Julia wants to be a vet tech. We are happy and our dog is happy. Thanks for a job well done.”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“I was very pleased with Sarah’s care of Brandy when she stayed with her this past weekend. Sarah was great about updating me and sending pictures. Her house is very dog friendly and there are lots of toys that her pup shares with guests. Brandy enjoyed her stay, and although she was happy to see me, was not showing any of the anxiety I sometimes see when we are separated for a while, so I know she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for in my absence. I would highly recommend Sarah as a sitter and plan to have her watch Brandy again soon!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Boxborough
Luna’s stay with Sara was absolutely amazing. She understood Luna’s anxious but very sweet personality and made her feel comfortable and at home. Sara was also incredibly accommodating when we had a last minute flight cancellation and worked with us so Luna could stay safe with her. We got daily updates and pictures which we loved. Sara was responsive, had great communication, and provided the best care possible for Luna. Highly recommend!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Boxborough on Rover is $63 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 3,962 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Boxborough. 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.
92% of Boxborough 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 Boxborough 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 Boxborough 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 Boxborough.
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 Boxborough 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.
