“Isabella did a great job in minding Marvin and Mellow. My cats are usually nervous at first, but settled down really well throughout their stay. She kept us in the loop with loads of photos and videos. By the end, our cats were content and I would definitely book her again!”

“Our 9 year old pit bull mix lived with Anneta for 10 days while we were away on vacation. Anneta sent us photos and videos everyday and did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. I was a little nervous because our dog can be aggressive towards other dogs and is also quite strong. Anneta handled her with ease and our dog loved Anneta. Anneta was very responsive, reliable and loving. I would not hesitate to hire Anneta again.”

About: I'm a musician & nonprofit administrator (WFH) with flexibility in my schedule and a lot of love and care to give! My late dog was reactive and I constantly had to be attuned to her emotional state, so I understand the nuances of dog personalities, though every dog teaches me something new. I have previously fostered dogs as well. I grew up with horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and hamsters, and aspired to be an equine vet once upon a time! I am a freelancing musician and also have an admin job - if I am not away traveling, I am almost always home and flexible with my schedule. My home is very quiet, no other pets, and no kids. It is on the 2nd floor via stairs. There are great walking routes nearby including the river, and we can discuss taking your dog for runs or trail outings depending on your dog's training.

They treat or dog like their own, and it means the world to my partner and I! We are so lucky to have found them for our fur babies!!”

“Joseph took great care of my little Frenchie back in January. I had to change my plans quickly due to my pup going into heat super early and a few days before our trip. It was stressful to try and find someone quick that I could trust with my literal child but Joseph made it SO much easier even accommodating pick up and drop off. He sent me lot of picture updates and kept me well informed when she was having tummy issues (due to her heat). I tend to worry about my pup a lot due to her breed and the strict routine I have to make sure she is healthy (if you have a Frenchie you know lol).”

About: I have two years of experience working at a dog shelter in Bolivia, where I helped care for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve also grown up with dogs at home, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I love spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’ve even taught my own dogs different tricks, so I’m very patient and enjoy working with dogs and helping them learn. Now that I’m living in Boston, I’d love to help other dog owners care for their pups and treat them like my own! My schedule is very flexible outside of classes. I have classes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 4–10 PM, but I’m available before those times and have much more flexibility on Tuesdays, Fridays, and weekends. I especially enjoy weekend pet sitting because I can spend plenty of time with your dog and give them the attention, walks, playtime, and company they need. I live in a cozy, clean apartment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise and fresh air with regular walks around the city and Boston Common. I always follow each owner’s routine and instructions, keep dogs safely leashed outside, and make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and affection while they’re with me.

About: I'm a mother looking for flexible working conditions. I've had dogs of my own and dog sat for friends in the past. I adore dogs and love to play and spend time with them. Sometimes all a dog needs is company (and food) . If you have specific instructions about walks or dog-sitting I'll happily to follow them (my pitbull had a chicken allergy so I'm used to the specifics). I can also administer medication if necessary. My schedule is open and my home is open to small and large dogs. If you have any questions for me feel free to message me I'm happy to answer any inquiries. My schedule is currently extremely flexible! Most of my daytime responsibilities can be done at different times so I am able to work with client needs! Caring for pets in my home and/or the clients home would involve frequent walks, playtime, feeding on your schedule depending on the time of day/amount of time they are with me, and any other thing you might request is absolutely open for discussion!

We are so happy to have found Nyna! Right from the start, her warm, gentle, and welcoming presence calmed our Mica who is sometimes nervous in unfamiliar settings. Nyna asked all the right questions, extended her affectionate nature immediately, and we were confident in her care. Mica returned tired and happy, with great pictures and communication as well. Couldn't be better - thank you, Nyna!

Emma was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my dog, Bobby. Even though it was my first time using Rover, she immediately made me feel comfortable that Bobby was in good hands.

There are 4,236 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Brighton. About 90% of Brighton sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.

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 .

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 .

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.

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, means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
