“Shuhua took great care of my high energy border collie Jasper! She got him a lot of exercise and had great communication. Can’t recommend her enough”
“I could not be happier with Maria and Caesar. My dog, Gary, can be a nervous little guy but by day 2, he was already happy to see Caesar at drop off and Caesar was excited to see him too! Maria sends me pictures and updates every day Gary is with them which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. They’ve been really flexible with drop off and pick up times and have even accepted last minute bookings. I can’t say enough good things about Maria and Caesar and if Gary could talk, I’m sure he would say the same.”
“Sunil is so kind and attentive, and devoted to making your dog happy. She was careful to ask about treats and how to make my shy pup comfortable. Highly recommended and I hope to use her again soon.”
“Andrea was excellent. I arrived at her home and she invited me in. She has a kind, warm, and calming presence that I and my puppy appreciated very much. She made sure my little girl, who is only 2 months, had ample potty breaks and lots of love. I’d recommend highly and will definitely rebook in the future. Thank you Andrea from Tula and me!”
“Emma took such great care of Arya and she was so happy with her stay! Emma sent updates and pictures to me of my baby girl and kept me updated with any changes. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Vista had so much fun during daycare with Junho and Boki! Junho was very communicative of how Vista was doing, making sure she had everything she needed to enjoy her days, from her food, to play and outside time. It is clear that he truly loves dogs and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone with a kind heart to care for their pet.”
About: I’ve helped take care of my roommates and friends’ pets. I’m very active and will be happy to take your dog on walks. I also work at home so I’m available during the week. Although I have not had a dog myself, I have owned chickens and cared for them very well. Their personalities are honestly very dog like. I am self-employed and work at home so my schedule is very flexible. Would love to help take care your pet and would love the company I love in an apartment building with a patio which can be used for quick potty breaks. I live with my sister who would be thrilled to help pet-sit. Our parents never let us have a dog/cat growing up and having a pet full-time isn’t a good fit for us, so pet-sitting would be ideal.
“Andrew and Ellen were great and very responsive throughout. Piper took a looong time to settle as was missing his hoomum but eventually settled down and had a fun time playing with sweet Mango too 🥰”
“Banapsha and Sid were so wonderful with me and Zephyr. I had a last minute request for daycare and they were willing to take us on short notice.. They really went the extra mile to make sure my pup was well taken care of. Banapsha was so kind to keep me updated every few hours with pictures and updates of Zeph. Zeph looked like he had a blast the entire time playing ball and tug. I'm definitely a bit of a helicopter mom when it comes to my pup and Banapsha was up to do a meet and greet beforehand so as to put me at ease since this was our first time together. She asked tons of questions and really took the time to take note of my pups quirks. I could really tell how much she absolutely loved pups and how well Zeph took to her when we met. So so grateful to have found someone I can trust to take care of my pup when I'm away. Ill definitely be back again soon!!!!”
“Bodhi loved spending time with Ismael and his family. They were so kind, made him feel at home, and our pup returned home happy. We would definitely send our pup to him again!”
About: Caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've grown up with dogs of all sizes, from energetic Huskies and Labs to smaller breeds like Havanese, so I'm comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I'm experienced caring for multiple pets at once and am confident managing busy households. While babysitting, I've often cared for children and dogs together, which has taught me how to stay organized, attentive, and calm in any situation. I’ve helped care for my mom's Husky with two torn ACLs, giving me experience with pets who need extra patience, gentle handling, and special attention. I'm comfortable administering medications, treating ear infections, and following detailed care instructions to keep your pet healthy and comfortable. I've also lived with cats throughout college, where my roommate had two cats, and I'm now the go-to pet sitter for both of my brothers' two-cat households. I'm just as comfortable caring for cats as I am with dogs. I'm an active person who does long walks everyday and I'd love to have a furry friend join me for walks and adventures. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime or prefers a quiet companion, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule. I work remotely on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. On Mondays and Thursdays, when I'm in the office, I'm available for early morning and evening walks or visits. My weekends are wide open, so I have plenty of time for longer walks, overnight stays, and lots of quality time with your pets! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special care instructions. During walks, I stay alert, keep dogs securely leashed, and avoid unsafe situations or extreme weather. At home, I make sure pets have a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel relaxed. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to build trust and provide care that's tailored to their individual needs.
“Daria was amazing! She sent us tons of pictures of Dakiti throughout the day, and he looked so happy in every single one. She and Kova were the perfect match for Dakiti's energy, exactly what he needed. We can't thank Daria enough, and we'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Tara and Logan take such great care of my dog Cocoa. They are careful and attentive and I don’t have any concerns at all about leaving her with them. Highly recommended and I plan to leave Cocoa with them much more in future.”
About: I have 6 years of hands-on experience raising and caring for my own dog, which taught me the importance of patience, structure, and genuine love. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether it is providing structured daily walks, fun playtime, sticking to strict feeding schedules, or simply offering a calm and comforting environment, I treat every dog with the exact same level of devotion, warmth, and attention as my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule with plenty of open availability throughout the week and on weekends. This allows me to dedicate quality, uninterrupted time and attention to your pet. I can easily accommodate daytime visits, afternoon walks, and full-day companionship to ensure your dog never feels lonely and maintains their normal potty and feeding routine seamlessly. Safety, comfort, and open communication are my top priorities. When hosting pets at my home, I provide a peaceful, clean, and dog-safe apartment where your pup can relax and feel right at home. For outdoor walks, I always keep dogs securely leashed and stay mindful of surroundings and weather. I am also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always have total peace of mind while you're away!
“If I could leave 10 stars, I would. Greta was absolutely AMAZING. Great communication, and an extremely happy pup when I picked her up. Thank you so much Greta for taking care of my Gracie as if she were your own.”
“Sydney did great with my pup Cleo! She really took the time to learn about Cleo’s challenges as a rescue, and to accommodate her specific needs. Sydney was also incredibly proactive and responsive with communication, sending updates and photos throughout the day, too. She clearly connected deeply with Cleo, and it was evident that she really cared for her. Thanks, Sydney!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Brighton
We are visiting Boston for the weekend and needed a daycare for our Chloe so we can visit museums and avoid stressing our furbaby due to the nor’easter rain and keep her warm. We decided last minute to do so and Cindy was available to care for her. She provided us with updates, followed instructions and is very responsive to our messages. Highly recommend booking her. Thanks so much Cindy.
Hannah has sat several times for my dog now, and as a frequent Rover pet parent, I can say she is one of the very best sitters I have had in the Boston area. She is 100% reliable, friendly, and clearly loves spending time outside with my dog. As a bonus there is a new, great dog park around the corner from where she lives.
Andy and Ellen were so easy and wonderful to work with🐾💕…One of our dogs had never been boarded before and was a little snippy to their sweet Mango dog at first, but they mediated the situation and were able to reassure us that it would settle down, and it did. Our dogs got plenty of outside time in their fenced-in backyard, and walks. And they administered my older dogs meds daily with her meals as needed. Most of all, they were extremely accommodating to our ever-shifting plans, which was such a relief to us, as they happily allowed us to drop the dogs off, or pick them up at wildly differing times than we had initially planned. This took a lot of stress away from us during our Boston stay. They are lovely friendly communicative people - we got some sweet doggie photo updates - and I would definitely use them again, and highly recommend them and their helpful services.
This was our first shot with Rover, and we came in with a lot of questions and anxieties. We knew we made the right call when our 5-month old golden became comfortable with Maria at first sight. Maria was very warm, sent regular updates on our puppy, and came with a lot of good experience and tips - having had a golden retriever herself while growing up. We’re definitely going to repeat very soon. Thank you, Maria!! 🥰🐶

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Brighton on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,992 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Brighton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Brighton commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,992 sitters in Brighton, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
