“Christina was great! She sent me a bunch of photos each day and took Leo on multiple walks daily! He was tired when I picked him up and that takes a lot to do. Will absolutely book again”
“Thank you again John. Walking dogs in a dense urban setting is not without its challenges. John is so experienced with this and we can head out of town without concern for our dog when he's in John's care.”
“Kathy was so accommodating and responsive! And she sent pictures of Frankie all day long to keep us posted. It was Frankie’s first experience in a house with cats so we were a bit worried, but everything worked out great and all the animals lived in harmony. We will definitely book 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.”
“Lyn was a fantastic dog sitter! Super professional and communicative and sent us updates of her weekend with our senior pup Thomas. He was well-rested and full of wiggles when we picked him up. Highly recommend and we will definitely reach out to her the next time we head out of town.”
“Guillermo took care of our dog Amos for nine days. He was an exceptional care provider. He went above and beyond taking Amos to the vet, giving his prescribed medication and even returning to the vet for a refill. Amos had plenty of walks. We received many pictures of Amos which my family really enjoyed. I would definitely re-book with Guillermo.”
“I would highly recommend Julie. She watched my golden retriever for a weekend while I was out of town. She send frequent updates and photos which I loved. Julie clearly loves dogs very much and that is evident in how well she takes care of them.”
“Todd was awesome! Very communicative and attentive, and clearly seemed to provide a great environment for Beau to stay. He came home clearly taken care of, calm, and happy.”
“Ann took wonderful care of Daisy for over a week. From the start, she was warm, kind, and very easy to communicate with. Ann and Jim created a great environment for Daisy, and we always felt she was in good hands. Ann made sure Daisy got plenty of time outside, including long walks and lots of opportunities to explore. It was clear that she genuinely cared about making sure Daisy was happy and comfortable. I would absolutely recommend Ann to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable sitter.”
“Michelle always takes excellent care of my girl, Gertie. She is responsive, provides regular updates, and is the kind of auntie every pup hopes to have. Gertie can't wait for her next sleepover there!”
“So caring, kind, and wonderful. They took great care of my dog when I was in a bind, were flexible and understanding as my schedule changed, and kept me updated with photos along the way. Thank you again so much!”
“Dohwee made my dog feel so at home and made me feel so at ease with continuous updates throughout the day and along with pictures. I would recommend. Dohwee 10 out of 10 time!! I was at first time user and my dog has separation anxiety, but my dog fell right at home.”
“Barbara’s care of Ziggy was top quality, thoughtful, professional and comforting for us because we frequently got cute update pics of our dog, and would often set up play dates with other dogs. She treated our Ziggy with much love and TLC!”
“Jennifer is phenomenal!! I got so many adorable pupdates throughout the day, from how our pup was feeling, to photos of him smelling some pretty flowers (really!! it was the cutest!), to videos of him playing fetch. I love seeing that he’s having a great time, and it’s absolutely a doggie vacation when he’s at Jennifer’s. Highly highly recommend!”
“I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Linda! From the moment I met, it was clear how caring, reliable, and attentive she is. My furry baby was happy, well-exercised, and clearly comfortable the entire time I was away. Linda provided just enough regular updates and photos showing how cared for my baby was. It’s such a relief to know my baby was treated like family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cambridge on Rover is $58.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,090 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cambridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Cambridge sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Cambridge landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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 favorite 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.
You and your Cambridge 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.
