“Melissa is AWESOME! Jagger always has a blast. He runs right to her when she picks him up. I feel very comfortable knowing Jagger is with her, safe, and having so much fun!!!”
“Ryan and Leah were amazing sitters for our pup Hammy. It wws our first time using Rover, so we weren’t sure what to expect but the experience with Ryan (and Leah) was so great, they took Hammy on walks through the woods, cuddled with him at home, and generally just took amazing care, with photos and updates throughout. I can’t recommend them highly enough!!!!!!!”
“Sheryl is just about the best dog sitter you could ask for! She made sure my Teddie was super comfortable in her home, gave him constant love and affection, and always made sure there was someone available to play with him. She also gave me daily updates which helped me feel more comfortable while I was away! Will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Maria was welcoming and loving to Scotty from the moment we arrived for a meet and greet!! He was excited to go visit and Maria sent pictures and messages several times a day while Scotty was in her care. He seemed happy and well cared for when I picked him up.”
“Alysia and her family are wonderful. They took care of Bruno as of their own. Great communication and accommodated all our needs. She even cooked Bruno’s meals. This is our 2nd time taking her help and will definitely reach out to her for all future needs.”
About: I am a lifelong dog lover with hands on foster experience and a deep passion for giving every pup a safe, happy home. Whether I am helping a nervous rescue decompress or welcoming a high-energy playmate into my routine, my background in fostering has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to read a dog's unique body language. Dogs are my absolute world, and I bring that same fierce, nurturing love to every dog I care for. At home, my beloved dog, Molly, shares my passion for making new canine friends and helps keep our space warm and welcoming. Your furry family member will be treated with the exact same devotion, safety, and endless belly rubs that I give to Molly. Thank you:) ! I just started a nursing program that is mostly online, so I am home and ready to keep someone's pup good company! I am flexible, can come to you if needed, and very easy going when it comes to walks and other needs you may have! Welcome to my home, where your dog will find a safe, trustworthy environment built on constant companionship and love. While I do not have a fenced-in yard, your dog will never be left to wander alone; instead, they will have a dedicated sitter to supervise, watch, and play with them every moment they are here. I treat every guest like a member of my own family, ensuring they get plenty of supervised outdoor exercise, interactive playtime, and continuous attention. Trust me, attention won't be a problem. You can rest easy knowing that your dog is in reliable hands, surrounded by people who are fully committed to keeping them happy, engaged, and completely secure.
“Caitlin was communicative and flexible, and her home was in a quiet neighborhood. Zero hesitation about leaving my dog with her again in the future. Pick up and drop off were super easy. Sammy was ready when we came to pick her up, and calmer than she usually is when we’ve been away.”
“Justine was a phenomenal sitter! We had a bit of a last minute need for a sitter and couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Justine was attentive, helpful, and incredibly friendly. We had so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog Violet got along so well with her Piper, and they definitely became fast friends. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Jessica was awesome with our "fur baby, Piper. She was excellent in keeping us updated on how Piper was doing. I appreciated the updates and pictures she sent. I would totally recommend her and if we are still here in the area visiting will definitely book with her again.”
“Tim provided a calm and safe environment for our dog while we were at a family event. He is laid back but made us immediately feel like he would treat our pet as he does his own pet. His dog is a very mellow black lab and the two got along very well. Lady didn't want to get in the car to come home with us!! 😢. It took overnight for her to not be mad at us We feel very lucky to have met Tim on Rover and will definitely contact him this way when we travel again.”
“Anna took great care of my 1 year old dog who is a ball of energy! 10/10 recommend great sitter and clear she is a genuine dog lover. Would 100% ask her to sit my dog again and fully vouch for anyone else to consider dropping theirs off to her! Thank you Anna!”
“Jen and her family took excellent care of our dog while he was staying with them. She took him for walks, played frisbee and let him run with her dog all day long. Our lab loved it there! They were very friendly, sent lots of pictures and were easy to coordinate pick up and drop off with. We are so grateful to have found her and will definitely be boarding our dog with her again. She was wonderful!”
“Rebekah was amazing!! Our girl was so happy with Rebekah and her family. Rebekah sent me messages and pictures through out the weekend which helped my anxiety about leaving my baby girl! Thank you Rebekah I will definitely come back again! She even offered her food to go home with because our dog ran out!”
“Julie is a dedicated and warmly caring person whose care of my two dogs while I was away in Europe went over and above the expected. She was especially attentive to my sweet old 16+ year old Wheaten, showing just how well she knows how to meet the needs of a senior dog. Thank you, Julie!”
“Kelsie was amazing! we felt completely at ease leaving Wells with her. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared for him like her own. Highly recommend”
“Ollie had the best time! Katie and Jessie were patient as Ollie warmed up, they took him to the beach and on a boat ride. Overall they treated him like their own pet and Ollie seemed happy. They sent multiple photos each day and were very responsive. Great sitters!”
“Ben and Natalie took wonderful care of my girl, Denali, for a week while I was away, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience! They were great with communication and sent me plenty of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Denali had the best time and loved getting to play with the other dogs. It was so nice knowing she was happy, safe, and well cared for while I was gone. I would absolutely recommend Ben and Natalie and will definitely have them watch Denali again!”

Oh my gosh Melissa is the best! Our sweet pup gets very scared very easily and Melissa took care of him like he was her own! She sent us picture and video updates and our pup truly enjoyed his time with her! If you are in this area and need a dog sitter, Melissa is the right person for it! She was flexible with our drop off and pick up times and made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog with her!!
Mike and Kelly have taken great care of my wolfhound Annie, and she is not an easy dog. Huge fenced in backyard, and a 6 year old energetic dog Bubba to help run Annie around and burn off steam. She is so excited to get there and see Bubba. Kelly figured out why Annie wasn’’t eating well and rigged a raised tray table for food, which worked out well. Highly recommend them to care for your pup!

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.
95% of sitters in Buzzards Bay 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 Buzzards Bay home-away-from-home, 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 Buzzards Bay.
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.
You and your Buzzards Bay 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 , 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 .
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.
