“We’re so glad Sarah and Ben were able to care of Blu at the last minute for a few days. Thank you both for taking such great care of him knowing how anxious he gets in a new place. They’re very patient and made him feel right at home. Sarah kept me posted with updates and photos too. We know Blu had fun!”
“Sean took great care of our crazy 9 month old lab Morty while we were away. This was our first rover experience and it went smoothly. Morty was even hesitant to leave when it came pick up time!”
“I felt that Stephen and Ceicilia took great care of Oliver. He was nice and fit, they took him for walks and were with him all the time. He seemed really happy and well taken care of .”
“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!”
“We boarded our dog with Debbie for two weeks while on vacation. She was very thorough and provided us with daily updates and pictures. Debbie clearly loves dogs, and we would definitely board with her again!”
“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.”
“Lucia is amazing! She is so kind, and caring with Leroy, he absolutely loves getting to stay with her. She also sends the sweetest pictures. It is definitely a vacation for Leroy, and he never wants to leave his “girlfriend”! We drive Leroy 45 minutes to have Lucia watch him, because she is the best!”
“Great experience - my dog is nine and has only stayed with family in the past, so it was wonderful to find a caring sitter locally who was able to care for her. Very responsive when contacted, and was flexible around timing (7am on New Year's Day, wow!) 10/10 would recommend.”
“Tina was exceptional boarding my pup for a few days with her. She was communicative and sent such cute updates of my puppy. Tina truly treated my puppy as if he was her own and he had such a great time staying at Tina’s!”
“Absolutely AMAZING dog sitter! My original plans for my dog fell through at the last minute and I reached out to 3 other people and TIANYUE was on the last page for whatever reason but I'm glad I stuck it out! Her communication, her updates, and even help with rebooking, all 5 stars! Sad i don't live in Boston anymore because I would easily hand over my baby girl to her!”
“Our usual dog boarder wasn't available for a short mid-week getaway so we found Julie on Rover. She was wonderful! Julie has a lovely home with a fantastic screened porch and great flat, fenced-in yard. We met a few days before to introduce my dog to hers and share info. Julie's dog is happy and sweet and was good company for mine, in addition to Julie, while we were away. I didn't worry at all knowing our pup was in good hands. Julie even sent me a couple updates and some cute pics and a video - our dog truly had a great stay! We would definitely book Julie again. You should, too. ;)”
“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!”
“Dan & Rossi were great! They are very welcoming and and purposeful about making you and your dog feel comfortable. They also sent plenty of pictures and updates during my dogs stay. We’ll be using them in the future for sure and I highly recommend them to others!”
“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!”
“Oh my gosh. Addie had an absolute blast staying with Casey. I was a little nervous leaving so long, but Addie didn’t seem to miss me since she quickly got comfortable staying with Casey. Thanks for everything!!”
“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!”
“Great sitter, had my dog for 8 days and he was well taken care of and because of her work he got to hang out with lots of other dogs all day! He had a blast! 10/10 would recommend.”
“Louie, our English springer spaniel, loved his time in Wanyi’s home. He was well taken care of, had lots of activities and exercise and was treated like a member of her family. She sent us pictures and updates every day. We are thrilled with our experience. We highly recommend Wanyi!!!!”

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.
Christopher is an exceptional pet caregiver! I’m not sure he did it, but he cared for several dogs with different temperaments, ages and sizes. But he did so and my Raphael did not appear to be short changed or neglected. I received daily and some days multiple videos or pictures of my guy. He shared concerns and great suggestions for how I might train and support Raphael as he matures past 6 months. I was comforted to be so far away that my big pup was being taken care of so very, very well.

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.
92% 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, 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 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 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.
