“Ben and Sarah were great hosts for our pup. He had tons of fun swimming and playing with other dogs and got lots of cuddles at night. They updated us every day with lots of great pictures and were responsive to our needs and his! Thank you thank you!”
“Really nice people, they were both amazing with my dog, you could just feel their energy upon meeting them that they were both animal people. I would definitely highly recommend them and bring my dog back to them for another overnight stay. Thank you for taking great care of my dog.”
“This was the second time Stephen and Cecilia watched Winnie, and they were just as amazing as the first! They always keep in touch, send plenty of pictures, and make sure Winnie is happy and loved the entire time. She’s actually bored to tears now that she’s back home! I’d absolutely recommend them — not only for the great care they give to Winnie, but also for how accommodating they are with pick-up and drop-off times”
“Shalayah, Wow!! From introductions to drop off to pick and communication along the way, Shalayah is a great dog care provider. She was engaging and attentive, and kind to myself and our dogs. We give her a 10 for being the best!”
“Deanna was amazing! Our very cautious dog stayed for an extended overnight and had a great time. Deanna was so good with her and gave her the space she needed to come around. She also provided an environment where our dog felt safe and comfortable which made my dog as happy as could be. Sent us pictures and updates which made us feel better… cannot say enough good things!! Thank you! Will definitely use her again!!”
“Michele was the perfect sitter to watch our rescue dog while we were in town for an event. She took the time to introduce our dog to the space before meeting the other dogs, and was overall so understanding. Our normally shy dog cuddled right up and really enjoyed her time with Michele!”
“Sarah took our pup for a week while my family went on vacation. She was wonderful with daily updates and photos (great communication). Will definitely be using her again. Our pup was happy and comfortable”
“Nick took care of Jessie for six days and did an excellent job! We had peace of mind during our trip overseas and received a wonderful photo update about Jessies stay with her furry friends. When we leave Jessie with Nick we know that she is well taken care of. Nick always provides excellent care for our senior dog and is attentive to her needs. He comes highly recommended.”
“Crystal took excellent care of Reggie for 8 days. I enjoyed receiving pictures where he was bonding with the other dogs, and cuddling up with her on the couch. She has a large fenced-in area in their back yard which was ideal for Reggie to get his daily exercise. I would highly recommend Crystal and definitely plan to use her services in the future.”
“Such a great experience! John and Sharon provided great care to our dog and kept us updated with photos and videos each day. We will definitely book with them again when we need boarding.”
“From the very first inquiry, Kevin was responsive, professional, and very accommodating. Kevin and Annie stepped in on incredibly short notice and completely saved the day. They asked all the right questions about Marlie's routine. When we dropped her off, it was clear Kevin and Annie had already gone out of their way to make our pup feel comfortable. We forgot to bring Marlie's treats but Kevin and Annie were well stocked with her favorite treats waiting. Throughout the stay, the updates were great with daily photos that showed Marlie was not just being cared for, but truly enjoying herself. She came home happy, healthy, and well-exercised.”
“Casey was very welcoming and loving when our dog arrived. Would happily send her back to Casey who is experienced with dogs and detailed in sending us updates on our dog's stay.”
“Alyson was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and updates while watching my cat and it was clear he was having a great time. She asked questions and was super responsive - would definitely recommend booking with her and I will book again!”
“I highly recommend Seonmin to anyone looking for a professional, communicative dog watcher. She watched my pup, Coconut, for 7 nights and was incredibly responsive to me and gave me daily updates. She is responsible and has a dog of her own you can tell she takes great care of. It also helps that her and her partner are at home full time to give your dog great love and care! I would highly recommend her.”
“Jess was great! She was very communicative and sent great pictures of our pup while we were away from her. Pick up and drop off were very easy and Jess was flexible with our timing. We already booked our next boarding for our pup!”
“Heidi watched my Lucy for one week while we were away on vacation. She sent photos and videos every day. It appeared that Lucy was really enjoying herself and Heidi was taking excellent care of my baby. I would have Heidi watch Lucy again knowing that she was being well cared for. Thank you Heidi.”
“Natalie was absolutely amazing with Leo and Nala! From the very beginning, she was so intentional during our meet and greet and took the time to really get to know both of them, their personalities, and what they needed before we even handed them over to her. That meant so much to us and made us feel completely comfortable leaving them in her care. Throughout their stay, Natalie sent plenty of updates and kept me in the loop, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s very clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she takes care of, and she is incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. We truly have nothing but great things to say about Natalie. Leo and Nala were so well cared for, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch them again. We will absolutely be rebooking with her!”
“Meghan and her family took such great care of Bleu for us. He has stayed with her and her family one other time and was very excited to get into her house when we got there… and didn’t even look back! He got lots of activity and snuggle time with her children! She shared daily pupdates with beautiful photos of our baby to put us at ease. I highly recommend and will absolutely use Meghan again in the future! ❤️”
“Richard took a great care of our dog Percy over Christmas break. Percy felt at home and was happy with his stay. Richard is very easy to talk to and he is also very responsive. We will most likely stay with Richard again. Lyuba”

Barry was absolutely phenomenal with Dulce! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It rained basically the entire weekend, and he still made sure she got out and had plenty of activity. She was with him throughout the weekend, I received lots of pictures and updates, and she even had her own room! 😂 It was so reassuring knowing Dulce was getting so much attention and was being treated like part of the family while I was away. Barry went above and beyond, and I would absolutely trust him with Dulce again. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their dog!
Paulina was a God send. We left our one year old bernedoodle with a friend, while on a cross country road trip. Mid way through the trip our friend needed reprieve so I reached out to Paulina and she replied promptly and jumped in to help last minute. She picked him up, coordinating directly with my friend. She overcame training challenges that werent presenting themselves with us, and worked through some difficult situations taking really wonderful care of our pup and the others in her care. I couldn't be more quick to refer her as a pet care option. Very grateful for her last minute support. Kodi came home more well behaved then when we left.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Brockton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Brockton 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 Brockton.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brockton. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Brockton 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
