“Lynne took such great care of Napoleon. Napoleon is a senior dog with diabetes and cushings disease and Lynne had never given insulin shots to a dog before but took it on without fail! Napoleon came home super happy and healthy. We are so thankful to have found Lynne to care for our little old man while we went away for the week.”

“We couldn’t have been happier with Jing! Traveling for a week without your pet can sometimes take away from the trip itself when you think about your dog staying with someone new. I can assure you that this was not the case for us! Jing kept us updated every day with photos of our dog’s time with her and her family. We felt so at ease while we were away knowing that she was being so cared for. I would highly recommend Jing to watch your pet if you’re in the market for an excellent pet sitter. We can’t wait to bring her back!”

“Andrea had our dog, Clifford (6y.o. Corgi mix), for a weekend stay recently (Fri-Sun). She sent us photos from walks with him, and was very understanding about some health issues that he has. We were very at ease with Clifford in Andrea's care, and would certainly recommend using her! I would also like to add this was our first experience with Rover - for the past five years, Clifford has only been watched after/cared for by friends when we are out of town, but we wanted to give Rover a try. Glad we did!”

Appreciate the adaptation and communication! A bit harder to plan around Nainika's meeting schedule than other Rovers but she was adaptable and drop off Bentley when our flight was delayed, and I did a "silent drop off" using her door code to drop him off with her while she was on meeting. She sent pictures of Bentley peeing in the house -- he needed a bit more of a walk than just being let outside in the backyard during a heavy rainstorm. Unfortunately, did loose one of his toys, but offered to cover the cost of replacement.

My cat is great with drop in visits but this is the first time I’ve had to leave him with a boarder so I was definitely anxious, especially for a month apart! Mia went above and beyond to make sure the transition was smooth. She loved and cared for him as if he was her own cat. Lovely photos and updates, attentive, thoughtful, and great communication. World class service, don’t hesitate to book with her!

My dog Sputnik did great with Sophia! He came back happy and very clearly well cared for, and her cat Sushi was a sweet new friend for him. In addition, Sophia was really accommodating to our schedule when we needed some flexibility surrounding drop off and pick up, she was incredibly responsive and kind. I will book with Sophia again in a heartbeat!!

We had the pleasure of meeting Andy and his partner with our dog Gabby and they were instantly likeable and very understanding and accommodating. They looked after her so perfectly despite the tough weather, they made sure to send us regular updates with every single walk, which we so appreciated! It made our time apart from Gabby just a tiny bit better with every new piece of content. The communication, drop-off and pick-up all went so smoothly that we would not hesitate to go back to them again, next time we have to leave our precious dog with someone.

Charlotte took excellent care of our timid velcro pup, Lola! She sent us frequent updates and pictures throughout the boarding, asked thoughtful questions about our dog's needs, and provided a stress-free environment. She was knowledgeable, communicative, and attentive. Seeing Lola wagging her tail on walks with Charlotte gave us so much peace of mind while away from home. We had a lovely experience boarding our medium sized often skittish Lola with Charlotte and would absolutely book with her again.

Shana took awesome care of my pup! I plan to use her again. She was also super flexible and very easy to plan and communicate with. I had a slightly earlier pick time as my flight home changed several times due to a cancellation, rebooking, and then two more delays so her flexibility was really helpful and made everything easy!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Brighton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Brighton on Rover is $52.43 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 4,193 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Brighton. About 90% of Brighton sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 pet, 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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
