“We couldn’t be more pleased with the care Michelle and her son extended to Clare. Michelle exuded confidence right off the bat as a pet lover. And when our flight was delayed, she was non-pulsed when we needed her to keep Clare for an extra, unplanned overnight. We look forward to calling on Michelle again!”

“Isabella was extremely responsive and communicative! She took on a tall task of watching after not only my dog, Muzzy, but 3 other dogs simultaneously, all while also taking care of her baby. Isabella kept us updated with videos throughout the day. I would definitely ask Isabella to care for Muzzy again in the future.”

About: I love taking care of dogs, cats, and every furry animal in between! I have experience with teaching dogs new tricks like "high five" or "spin", and it brings me such joy. I am currently between jobs (biotech is RUFF, pun intended) and spend most of my day at home working on different personal projects. I have plenty of time to walk, play, and nurture your fur baby. I live in a large apartment near a large field intended for dogs. I value my time with each pet and want to make sure they remain engaged, happy, and comfortable.

Maizie had a great time and enjoyed playing with her dogs as well! I would use Hunter again for future boarding and I would also recommend Hunter to any one looking for any dog services!”

“This was my first time using Rover and it was an amazing experience because of Aly. She communicated with us right from the start and set up a meet and greet where she asked questions about our puppy's routine, needs, and preferences. We were nervous immediately felt very comfortable leaving our brand new puppy with her. Aly sent daily updates and pictures throughout our vacation and we could tell our dog was comfortable and happy. Aly felt like an extension of the family right away and we I couldn't recommend her more. We will definitely look to have her watch our dog in the future.”

“Rebecca was extremely attentive, organized, and professional with our pup, Lua. She asked great questions about Lua’s routine and did a great job with confirming dates and times for meet and greats, pick ups, and drop offs and checked in with us multiple times about scheduling to make sure everything was organized for Lua’s stay. She also sent several updates and pictures through the day, which we appreciated. Lua often will not eat when her routine changes, but she ate every meal while staying with Rebecca! It was a true testament to how comfortable Rebecca made Lua feel. We were relieved to know that Lua was feeling comfortable while we were away. I would recommend Rebecca as a pet sitter in a heart beat and hope Lua can stay with her next time we are out of town. Thank you SO much for your help, Rebecca!”

I highly recommend Shuhua! I continue to book Shuhua because of her care, attention to detail and communication - she's great! After regular dog walker moved away, and after a few trial runs with others, I finally found someone to care for my 15yr old dog. I don't worry when I need to board my old girl for a few nights because I know she'll be well taken care of.

We could not be happier with the care Adrianna provided for Moca! This was Moca’s very first time staying with her, so we were naturally a bit anxious, but she immediately put our minds at ease. She kept us updated every single day with sweet pictures and videos. Moca came home relaxed, healthy, and so happy. We definitely recommend her to anyone looking for attentive, loving care, and we will absolutely be rebooking with her for our future trips! Thank you, Adrianna!

This was my first time boarding my cats but Mia put me at ease right away. She offered an initial call to go over care instructions and anything to be aware of. She was incredibly understanding of my cats' nervousness in a new environment and gave them the patience and space to adjust. She was also very flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, which made logistics easy. Throughout the weekend, she sent multiple updates, so I never had to wonder how they were doing. I’d happily book Mia again and recommend her to other cat parents who are looking to board their kitties.

Miriam and her husband took good care of our older Shih Tzu for five nights. They sent messages and photos to reassure us that he was doing fine. We liked the fact that they only take one dog at a time, so he could get all their attention. We would board our dog with Miriam again.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Brighton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Brighton is $52 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $86 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 4,235 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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.
