“Angelina took great care of Lucy for their day together. She sent multiple photos during the afternoon and is great with her communication. Lucy came back happy and had a great time playing with her pup. I’ll definitely use Angelina again in the future.”

“Mary took such good care of my miniature schnauzer who is cautious and shy. She was a great communicator. She sent pictures showing me he was happy and doing well and when I picked him he was as contentedly curled up asleep. I am so thrilled to be able to have Mary sit for him again in the future.”

“Yingying and her family took such wonderful and thoughtful care of Max! He was a spoiled and happy boy while staying with them. Highly recommend and would happily rebook in the future.”

“Julia was great! There was easy communication and flexibility for pick up and drop off. She kept me updated throughout the day and made sure our dog was well cared for!”

“Liliya and her family were great with Sophie. This was Sophie’s first experience staying with a sitter so I was a bit nervous how she would do. During Sophie’s stay Liliya sent many pics and updates about Sophie’s routine. This really put my mind at ease and Sophie seemed very content. I also love that Liliya, her husband and two young kids played a role in the sitting which means Sophie got lots of attention. I highly recommend Liliya! I will be using her again next time I travel.”

“Jennifer took such good care of Archie and his special medical needs. He did not seem stressed at all. She sent me updates multiple times daily. I would highly recommend her.”

“Julie was so great with our dog Siena. Siena can be a bit anxious, and Julie was so caring and great with her and made her feel right at home. Great communicator, got lovely pictures and updates while we were away, we couldn’t be happier with Julie!”

“We felt very comfortable and secure leaving our senior dog with Bridget for a long weekend. Bridget was highly communicative and kind. Marbles has a couple specialized needs that she easily accommodated (i.e., twice daily pill administration and avoidance of other dogs). Marbles tends to be anxious when without us but I could tell she felt at ease with Bridget from the pictures that she shared with us. We will rebook for sure!”

“Teddy had such a great time with Phoebe, Ben, and their sweet dog July! He usually sticks to his humans and doesn’t hang out much with other dogs, but July kept him great company during his 3-day stay. Phoebe was super nice and sent us daily pics of Teddy, which made us so happy. We’ll definitely have Teddy stay with Phoebe again!”

“Nancy took amazing care of our dogs for almost 2 weeks while we were away in Europe. She communicated to us daily with photos to match her captions, letting us know they were doing well (they are old and not in the best of health). We were so grateful she could take them a month before we were to leave (we had a family emergency so needed a back up plan) especially during the holiday season! She was so thoughtful to help us out and go to the store when we neglected to pack their doggie treats. We highly recommend Nancy - she treated our dogs as if they were her own! ❤️”


“We are so grateful for Kira!! Bailey is so excited the second we pull into her driveway. He is completely exhausted from all the running and playing with other dogs in her big backyard. It is such a relief to know he is loved and well cared for while we are away.”

“Yvonne and her family were wonderful caretakers of our sweet Okie! She provided frequent updates and pictures to keep us at peace during our vacation. Okie seemed really, really happy with her stay!”

“Maeve greets Leo like he is her family member! He happily runs in and is at home immediately. She texts me photos every day and is accomodating when my drop off and pick up times are in flux. Great dog sitter!”

“Excellent experience. Sara seemed professional, friendly, and very on top of things. She stayed in close touch about our little guy, and Kiwi seemed in good spirits both during his visit and after. I'd also specifically flag her location as a bonus—the house has a good yard and it's on a small, low-traffic side street, which always makes me feel better.”


“I was very nervous having to board my two pups rather emergently. Best thing to have ever happened to me was finding this angel. She sent me a frequent updates as well as pictures. Couldn’t have asked for a better family to take care of my best buds. I am 1000% grateful and will continue to use Jessica in the future.”

“Our dog Sara had an absolutely fabulous time at Judy's home. Judy is so friendly, and her dog Rosie became our dog's best friend instantly! There is plenty of comfortable indoor and outdoor space for dogs to roam around, and lots of toys. We're so thankful for Judy and her wonderful doggie care!”

“Amanda was awesome with my 6 month old puppy! She is friendly, welcoming, and provided a safe and loving atmosphere for my puppy while I was away. She was responsive when I texted to see how my dog was doing, and sent pictures. Amanda really put me at ease. Her sons were great with my puppy too! They loved playing with her in the yard, and my puppy thoroughly enjoyed her time with them. My puppy was happy and excited from all the fun and activities when I picked her up! I would definitely recommend Amanda as a responsible and nurturing dog sitter for anyone looking for care for their precious pup. We would definitely use her again!”

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 September 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 September 2026, there are 3,887 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.
93% 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.
