“Meli was a great sitter! She’s very friendly and attentive. She also has great communication and gave us plenty of updates. I can tell our puppy had a great time while staying with her 😊”
“Briana was wonderful! Very flexible with timing and knowledgable about dog behavior. She has great communication skills and we got a lot of fun photos while we were away. She even gave our big boy a good brushing before we picked him up and he looks great! I think he had a good time away and we will definitely be calling on Briana again when we need a competent, compassionate dog sitter.”
“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”
“If our dog had her way, she'd go to Paul's every day. She had so much fun during her stay, she had the biggest smile on her face in every picture Paul sent us! Paul is so incredibly nice and clearly cares for each and every animal that comes into his home. We can't thank Paul enough for giving our girl one of the best weekends ever!”
“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!”
“Melissa & Axel took amazing care of our golden retriever over a two night weekend stay. They sent us plenty of updates and we could tell that our dog loved the stay with their family.”
“Elaine is wonderful! She took great care of our 15 month old Golden, Mia. Mia came back home looking happy and exhausted from all the play with her other furry friends. It was our first time leaving Mia for 5 days and Elaine really made us enjoy our vacation without having to worry about our baby. She was always sending us updates and pictures and is also quick to respond to our questions. We are so happy we found Elaine on Rover and would highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“We can’t say enough good things about Erica! Erica has done drop in visits, day care, and boarding for Dixie. She is prompt, communicates well and is extremely professional. Most importantly, Dixie loves her!! I highly recommend Erica and will most definitely continue to work with her in the future!”
“Always 5 Stars for Michael and Caesar and the family! Ghost Pepper loves to visit and is always happy to see Michael and Caesar. I know he's having fun in a clean, safe, amazing place when I can't take him with me. So happy to have Michael and Caesar and the family in our area!”
“Wonderful first overnight with Kira - couldn't have been a better experience! She and her husband are lovely, very experienced and clearly know what they are doing. Their home is well set up to care for pups - ours loved to explore their fenced in yard. Communication was terrific, the pictures were great and reassuring to us as protective pet parents. Our boxer came home happy and seemed to enjoy his sleepover with his new friends. We're booking again right away.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dog received while I was away! Lingwen was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry friend in their hands. She was so professional, friendly, and attentive, taking the time to learn my dog’s routine and preferences. During the time I was away, Lingwen kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. My dog was happy, healthy, and relaxed when I returned. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their pets!”
“Jace was wonderful with Luna! He kept us in the loop with clear communication, updates, and photos, and made sure she was well cared for. It was wonderful knowing she was happy and getting lots of walks while we were away. I highly recommend Jace and would definitely book with him again!”
“I can't recommend Craig and Brianna highly enough. They looked after our dog, Oreo, for a week and provided exceptional care. Their frequent updates and photos showed just how comfortable and loved he was. It’s such a relief to find sitters who treat your pet as their own!”
“Vignesh is a very responsive, loving & caring pet care provider. Lali enjoyed the stay with Vignesh. I highly recommend Vignesh for your pets care when you are away.”
“Dawn and her family were awesome! I needed to find someone to watch Sammy. They accepted him as their own and gave me updates on a daily basis. She is very communicative and I felt safe leaving Sammy with Dawn and her family. Thank you so much for everything! ❤️”
“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.”
“Bridget was great! We appreciated the updates and photos while we were away—they gave us complete confidence that Willow was in excellent hands. Bridget was a prompt and clear communicator, and her attentiveness to our dog’s needs was genuinely appreciated. We would be delighted to work with her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 3,526 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Boylston. 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 Boylston 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 Boylston 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 Boylston 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 Boylston.
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 Boylston 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.
