“My dogs loved being at Cynthia's and David for 5 days! They ran outdoor leash free in their fully fenced acres. This is the longest we had ever left them and Cynthia send us pictures daily of the fun they were having. Thank you!!!”
“Thank you so much for watching our puppy Lulu. She had a great time with all the dogs, who tuckered her out. Bill is very responsive and provided photos during her stay so we knew how she was doing. He was very organized with dedicated indoor and outdoor space and with feeding schedules.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been luckier than to have found Mariella. Our dogs settled in very quickly and we could tell they were given great care from Mariella and her family.”
“Michelle is a lovely host. Our 5 year old retriever ran right into her house upon our arrival and first meeting and fit right in from there. Balto took a few last pets from Michelle on pickup and seemed almost reluctant to leave. Anyone looking for a warm loving environment for their animal should not hesitate to trust Michelle and her family to look after your cherished pet.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Cindy and Marc! She was so kind and took great care of Onyx, sending us regular photo updates and keeping us informed about how he was doing. Onyx loved the long walks they took him on, and it was clear he was very happy in their care. Highly recommend!”
“So, so grateful for Jayson. He was so patient, kind and attentive to my 5 month old pup during his 4 night stay. He gave me lots of updates on the fun stuff they were doing which really eased my anxiety leaving him for the first time. He took Charlie to numerous parks and on lots of walks and made a model out of him on the many cute photos he sent me. Charlie had a great time with Jayson's on sweet Frenchie, Arnold. I cant reccomend Jayson enough....he's a true dog lover and it shows. 🩷🐾”
“Stefanie is nothing but extraordinary. Her love for her own pups as well as the ones she cares for is like none other. It was evident on my pups first visit and her love continues to shine every visit we have had as Poppy is welcomed with open arms and lots of snuggles. Stefanie gives reassurance, updates and listens to concerns and addresses any timely and professionally. She made my anxious girl feel so comfortable and at home. I am beyond thankful to have found a gem that loves my girl like I do.”
“Shelley was an absolute heaven sent for myself and my little guy. This was the first time i had used this service and was hesitant to do so but Shelley's reviews and experience put me at ease. She really does go above and beyond for your pet and keeps in contact with updates everyday. What a great experience. Thank you so much Shelley <3”
“Valerie is amazing! Our little guy Junior, was welcomed and settled in instantly. We highly recommend Valerie and trust her 100% Thank you Valerie for taking great care of Junior. He will be back 😊”
“We have boarded our dogs with Mike twice. They love going, and have a great time. He sends pictures and videos, and the dogs always look happy and healthy. We are so happy to have found such a wonderful home away from home for the boys!”
“Allison and Scott took wonderful care of my senior dog. They sent pictures to show me what she was up to. My dog returned home happy and tired from having so much fun. I highly recommend Allison and Scott.”
“Gail is amazing! My 2.5-year-old husky came back happy, well cared for, and completely tired out after his stay. It was clear that her entire family helped take care of him, not just Gail, which made me feel even more comfortable leaving him there. She provided regular photo updates and communicated very well throughout the stay. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Meadow and Blue stayed with Catherine for 9 nights and had a great time. Catherine provided daily updates to let me know how my dogs were doing. My dogs had a couple of issues during the stay and Catherine was open and respectful in all communication and clearly wanted what was best for my dogs.”
“Shelby was amazing and very attentive to Bandit's special needs. I was kept informed and enjoyed many of the candid photos. Would not hesitate to recommend and will be booking again!”
“Yasemin and Daniel were wonderful caregivers to our pup! They sent us pictures and kept us updated on his day while we were away. They took care of him as if he was their own pet. We will definitely use their services again! Thank you!”
“Jean was absolutely amazing! She had great communication throughout Piper’s stay and sent regular picture updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Jean and her family were incredibly welcoming and loving to Piper, and it was clear she was well cared for and happy. We would absolutely recommend Jean to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we will definitely be trusting her with future boarding ❤️”
“Ranjitha was lovely! My cat had a great time with her and was so comfortable. I didn’t have to worry much. She also kept me regularly updated. I would highly recommend her.”
“This was our Dog's first time staying with a sitter, and we were honestly nervous about using Rover. We had tried other sitters for a fit, but she never connected with them. With our trip coming up, we found Shelly and her family at the very last minute and didn’t even have time for a meet‑and‑greet. What immediately drew us in was that they had young kids even more than having their own dogs because she absolutely loves children. We knew the transition would be hard for her, but Shelly and her family went above and beyond. They sent us daily updates, were incredibly patient, and gave her the space she needed. Over time, she warmed up and even started going on walks with them after 3days of not going on a walk, She quickly transitioned to 4 walks in a day. Shelly was reassuring throughout, reminding us that given her age, this adjustment was completely normal, and that by her third stay she’d likely be even more comfortable. I would recommend Shelly and her family over and over again.”
“Rie and Masahiro were wonderful sitters for my dog, Laika (65lbs). She needed some extra love and attention, and they were incredibly accommodating. Their communication throughout was excellent, sending me regular updates and pictures, which really reassured me while I was away. Laika seemed so happy and well cared for during her stay with them. I would definitely use their services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring dog sitters.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cambridge
Our first boarding was a great experience! Radhika and Sayan was absolutely wonderful—friendly, caring, and so welcoming. They spoiled Ellie, gave her great care and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us such peace of mind as first timers. In photos Ellie was happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend they and I will continue to book Radhika and Sayan.
Michelle C. was absolutely outstanding. My first time leaving my pup with someone for such a long period of time, I was a bit nervous at first. She arranged for us to have a meet and greet, and I immediately felt at ease. Her children were also very lovely, and they bonded with Rufus, which made it that much nicer. Michelle sent me updated pictures of Rufus to help with leaving him, and when we picked him up, he was happy and very healthy. When we go away again, we will definitely leave Rufus with Michelle. Thank you for everything.
Taryn dog sat for us and was so sweet with our sensitive, high energy girl. She asked lots of great questions about our dog's needs and how to work with her, and really put in the work to make sure those needs were met. She was very patient and understanding when our dog didn't do well with her lovely cat and found a solution to keep everyone safe and happy. Taryn is a total gem and I definitely recommend her.
This was my first time booking a sitter through Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Victorias communication was top notch, and was able to work around my schedule and the needs of my pups. Looking forward to the next time my guys get to hang out with their new friend!
Wow 👌 Mariella is amazing with our little simba. She's very polite and on time. She takes good care of him, always tired when he comes back lol 😆 she bonded with him right away. When we say "simba lets go to Mariella he knows hahaha goes to door and waits. He knows when hes going and that's a good sign. She is amazing and her son is great with simba. She has a big backyard and lots of space for him to run around. We left for 2 weeks and she kept us informed all the times, photos, videos. She made sure he was happy and that we were as well. I recommend her 💯 thank you for watching simba and she's great with scheduling as well.
Divya and Vaibhav took such loving and thorough care of my dog for 4 days. We were always updated with photos, videos and daily activities. They got creative with solutions when my dog was having feeding challenges and made sure she was fed and exercised. They made sure her normal routine was maintained but also went over and beyond to provide additional enrichment activities. They really treated Bell like one of their own and Bell seemed so happy with them. I would recommend both of them anytime for dog sitting.
Rafael and his family were very loving towards Bella during her stay with them. They communicated with us on a regular basis and even taught her a new trick ( dancing) that they shared with us in a video. We are definitely going to use Rafael again. Bella really enjoyed her stay with them. Thanks again

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cambridge 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 favourite hang-out spots in your Cambridge
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.
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 dog, 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 do not have any disqualifying offences.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 79% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
