“I couldn’t have asked for a better place for Frankie to be while we were away.A fenced in back yard where she could run and play with other dogs.The pictures they sent gave us a great feeling while we away and missing her.Our nephew just got a puppy and we told him we would highly recommend Ben and Sarah.”
“Audrey was so amazing with our dog! He is quite high energy and came home happily exhausted after an event-filled weekend with her. She is very attentive and takes such great care of her dog and others. 10/10!!”
“Taylor provided a great home for snowball during a last minute request. Daily long walks, multiple pictures and videos throughout the day and extremely responsive. Communication was consistent and overall a great experience. I can’t recommend Taylor enough. Snowball came back home fully groomed and looking better than when I dropped him off.”
“Our dog Ollie had a wonderful overnight visit with Julie! Ollie loved having a pal, Julie’s dog Amber, to play with. Amber is the happiest pup I’ve ever met. Ollie loved Julie’s big fenced in yard and her great screened porch. Julie took wonderful care of our precious pup. I highly recommend Julie for your pup care needs. Thank you Julie!!! 🐶🩵”
“Such amazing care and communication!! I actually think our dog was a bit sad to come home after the time he had with Jasmin and Eric! They are awesome and we definitely hope to work with them again!”
“Boning was great with Maple - gave great updates on what they were up to, how she walked and ate, etc. Maple was spoiled by cuddles and a great fenced in yard. We would be happy to book with her again!”
“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!”
“My cats were well cared for during their stay. Alec and Damien responded quickly, were flexible with drop off and pickup times, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. I would recommend them to others.”
“Hi my Milo had a great time with Natalie. She was sweet and caring and booked us last minute when we really needed it! I would reach out to Natalie again any time! Thank you Natalie you were awesome!”
“Very happy with Norman’s stay. Dan has a sweet dog of his own that Norman for along with. They went in a nice walk up to Blue Hills for some outside time. Great communication to let me know everything was going well.”
“Stefanie was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our dog! She was so responsive in messaging and followed great instructions for giving medication, feeding, walks, etc. Stefanie provided great exercise for Finn and sent lots of pictures and updates during his stay! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Dennis took great care of my two dogs. They obviously had a wonderful time playing, going on nice walks, and being welcomed to his family: his daughters were superb with my pups as well. In addition, Dennis was also very proactive in getting in touch with me and easy to communicate. Excellent care and experience!”
“Eric lived up to his very positive reviews: sensitive to our (very few) concerns, sending daily updates and photos, easy to communicate with--in short, everything one would hope for. His dog Snickers was an extra bonus.”
About: Hi! I’m a warm, caring, professional dog walker looking to add some walks and boarding to my schedule. I absolutely love dogs, and will treat yours as if it were my own with all the love, care and attention they deserve! I am comfortable with puppies, seniors, and even have experience with more reactive pups. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! I am a professional dog walker with a local company two days a week, but am looking to add more walks and visits to my schedule. When I’m not dog walking, I’m working on building a sustainable swimwear brand from home, so I have lots of flexibility to work around your schedule. I don’t have any pets of my own, so yours will be the center of attention! I live on the second floor of a two family condo building. I don’t have a fenced backyard, but I live right off the Neponset River Trail and there are lots of great walking route and trails in my neighborhood. If your pet is used to sleeping in your room with you at night, I am happy to have them in my room, and can accommodate crated or uncreated dogs. In general I try to keep your pet’s schedule as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and at home.
“Sheila and her fiancé took great care of Winnie, we really appreciated the daily photos and videos of Winnie while we were away, it made us feel good knowing Winnie was in great hands and that she was not just taken care of but played with a lot- which she loves. Sheila met with us before a trip we planned earlier this year, and we had to cancel our plans- but later she also accommodated us on a short notice trip which was also so incredibly nice. We appreciate her flexibility and understanding and would love to have her watch Winnie again.”
“Arianna is awesome. She is very caring and very reliable. She took great care of Leo who is in need of medications for his arthritis. Arianna exceeded my expectations!”

Our dog just had a wonderful stay with Maria and John! They are very caring people who immediately welcomed Fenway into their home. I was most impressed with their communication while we were away, and with their focus on Fenway’s safety when he was being watched by them!
Isabella is a wonderful sitter!! We went away for 5 days and left Orion in the care of Isabella and her family. Orion seemed very happy and relaxed with his playmate, Ozzie, and stayed active with walks. Isabella took great care of him. She sent pics everyday and is very responsive. We were grateful for the updates and felt reassured he was in great hands. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and caring place for their dog.
Jack just stayed with Gabriella for the first time and I couldn't be more grateful for how good she was with him! Jack has separation anxiety and gets nervous meeting new people and being away from me. Heck, I get anxious too, but Gabriella and her boyfriend made us both feel completely at ease. Jack had 25/7 company and was given accommodations to ensure he was comfortable. I was given plenty of updates on how he was doing and he seemed to be enjoying his time the whole visit with lots of play time and affection. Upon bringing him home I could just tell how content he was with his stay. He wasn't overly anxious to see me which is amazing in comparison to other times he's stayed away from home. I felt completely confident he was in safe and loving hands the entire visit and would absolutely go to Gabriella in the future for pet sitting needs. Thanks again so much for taking such great care of my little guy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Canton is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $117 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 4,264 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Canton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Canton 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 Canton 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 Canton.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Canton 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.
