“This is our 2nd time leaving Finn with Michael and Finn was so excited when we pulled into his driveway. Finn came home clean and well cared for. We appreciated the photos Michael sent while we were away from Finn. He always looked happy!”
“We highly recommend Faith! She was easy to book, communicate with before and during our dogs stay and she treated our dog like family. We received daily updates and photos and knew that she was in good hands. We will definitely be using Faith again whether it be for an extended stay, walk or visit.”
“Lindsay was amazing. Our dog had a great time with Lindsay, her family and her dog Tilly, who happened to match our dog's size and energy level perfectly. Lindsay sent us multiple photos during our dog's stay. We could not recommend her more highly!”
“Rita and her fur-fam gave my boy the most wonderful vacation. She is not paid what she is worth - she knows dogs at an expert level, she loves them, her place is set up perfectly for a dog vacation. I was a nervous new mom to leave my dog, but Rita and her two sweet dogs gave my Donut the best experience, opening his personality in wonderful ways and putting me at peace. Thank you for the tlc and ease, and your time, Rita.”
“Bo and Aida were well cared for and seemed happy at pickup. Donnie sent pictures over the weekend so we could see how they were doing. Will definitely have our pups stay with Donnie in the future!”
“I’m so glad I found Stacey to care for my dog. She was Amazing! She provided pictures and updates daily which put my mind at ease. She took such good care of her that I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home! Truly the BEST! Thank you!!”
“Five stars is not enough! We left Chewbacca with Karen for a few days this week. Chewbacca has various specific needs, including oral medication and prescription diet, and he gets very nervous when first dropped off. We have never had such a strong sense of peace of mind with a dog sitter as we did this weekend. Karen was extremely communicative, updated us through text and pictures throughout the day, and always made sure to go the extra mile so Chewbacca felt safe and cared for. We will absolutely be calling her again!”
“We felt really comfortable leaving our skittish boy, Dingo, with Mike and Linda once we met them and saw that he was going to be doted on! We got almost daily pics and didn’t worry about a thing while we were on vacation. Dingo was reportedly loved by their grandchildren too over their Easter Sunday dinner so we weren’t too sure he’d even want to come back home with us but he did!! Highly recommend Mike & Linda! 🩷”
“Olympia had a great time as always! We really appreciate their attention to her allergies - when we told the she needed filtered water they said no problem and offered to take the shared water up, which was really considerate.”
“Bob and his wife took good care of my dog Deckard, and definitely put me at ease leaving him with a sitter. He sent me lots of pictures and Deckard looked so happy and comfortable.”
“Julie took great care of Daisy for us while we went away on a trip over Thanksgiving. She kept us updated daily with photos and how she was doing. We would highly recommend Julie. She cared for Daisy exceptionally well :)”
“Fantastic sitter! Very responsible and straightforward. Communication was smooth and clear throughout the stay, and I appreciated getting daily photo updates. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“Salish was wonderful with our dogs and gave us constant updates. I was particularly worried about my younger dog who can be troublesome, but it ended up working out so well! They were so well taken care of, and my younger dog was the calmest I have seen her in a long time. Thanks, Salish!”
“Joseph and his family were great sitters. They took care of our boy like he was their own. Their home and outdoor space is safe and spacious for dogs to get plenty of exercise. They were also very accommodating when we had a change in travel plans. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again as a sitter.”
“Billy & Lori were wonderful! Their relaxed and welcoming home is a perfect place for pets- with the bonus of a lakefront location for dogs who like to swim (or just walk/wade- as our Danny Boy prefers). We will definitely try to book future vacays with them.”
“Belinda was wonderful with our furbaby and sent us an update each day. She was very accessible by text and easy to communicate with. Our dog got along well with her dog, Sloane, who is a sweetie. Also, she has the perfect fenced in yard for the dogs to play! We will certainly work with Belinda again!”
“Peter was an amazing host! Our pup was very well taken care of. We received pictures throughout the week giving updates on how she was doing. She came back home happy which hasn't always been the case with boarding her. Will absolutely use Peter again in the future. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a loving home for their pet!”
“We needed a last minute sitter and we found Jing. I was a little bit nervous because Kled needed lots of exercise, but Jing have a big yard and gave him lots of daily walks! She gave us updates multiple times throughout the day. Jing is also very flexible to accommodate us!”
“Mercis was fantastic! Very responsible and communicative—she took amazing care of our dog and sent awesome photos! We will definitely be sending our dog to board with her again!”

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 Boxford 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 Boxford 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 Boxford 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 Boxford.
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 Boxford 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.
