“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.”
“Kerrin was fantastic! Duke had so much fun with her, she sent the cutest pictures and he was having a blast! She’s wonderful and kept my puppy very happy while I was away.”
“I can't recommend Claudia and Joaquin enough! They took wonderful care of Daisy and were so accommodating from start to finish. Everything from the initial meet-and-greet to the final pick-up was completely effortless. They kept me in the loop with adorable photo updates, and seeing Daisy looking so relaxed gave me complete peace of mind.”
“Frodo had a great stay- enjoyed playing with the hosts' dogs, I got great pictures and video updates, easy to communicate with. Would absolutely use again.”
“Matias takes such good care of our Boston Terrier Milo every time! He clearly has a love for dogs and our dog loves spending time with him! Would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for family pets for over 10 years and have developed a deep understanding of the attention, patience, and love that animals need. From daily walks and playtime to feeding routines and basic grooming, I’ve helped care for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m comfortable handling pets with different energy levels and temperaments, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I just graduated from Suffolk Law in May and took the Bar Exam this summer! I’m now working from home 4 days of the week and am in office on Wednesday’s. Having furry friends around while i’m working from home keeps me company. 😊 Your dog’s safety is my top priority every step of the way. I take great care to make sure each pup is safe, secure, and stress-free! Whether we’re on a walk, playing in the yard, or hanging out indoors.
“Monica was wonderful! I highly recommend her! She and her family took such good care of my 16 year old dog, Bella, for the first time. Monica sent pictures and videos throughout Bella’s stay that showed me Bella was happy and taken care of. Bella got so much attention and seemed so at home! Monica is also great communicating with quick responses and attention to detail. Thank you, Monica!”
“This was my first time leaving my pup, Biscuit, with someone on Rover. My pup has a good amount of separation anxiety, and I was apprehensive about leaving him alone at another person's place. Amy took excellent care of Biscuit, kept giving regular updates, and was very communicative throughout the stay. He had a lot of fun staying with Amy and her gorgeous pup, Poppy. She is very reliable, and I will leave my pup with her again!!”
“Rebecca took great care of my dog during a weekend trip. I know he got plenty of exercise and love because he came home tired in the best way possible. Thank you!”
“Sydney did a great job watching our pup for the weekend! She was thoughtful in her updates, and was helpful in scheduling around a very busy weekend for us. Highly recommend, thanks again!”
“I’m so glad Freddi was Tommy’s sitter! She took such good care of my old guy; I could tell how much he adored her and her husband when I picked him up. It was also evident in the awesome pictures they sent me every day. Tommy had his own vacation! All in all, they were great, and I can’t thank them enough. I hope I’m able to book them again the next time I have to go somewhere without my boy. Thanks, guys!”
“Hanna and her Mom were great with our pugs. They sent pictures and updates when requested. Our dogs seemed happy and healthy when we picked them up. Thank you so much!”

I provide playing and exercising, dog walking, mid-day potty breaks & all the love and attention your animal needs! Me and my husband would love to host your dog at our apartment if you are traveling away! I love dogs big and small and will gladly provide picturesso that you know your animal is taken care of while you are away! I know we all miss our pets when we are gone and I will give them the comfort and attention they need so you don’t have to miss them as much or worry about their safety! Thank you for considering me & I can’t wait to meet your pets, Anna Carroll I am a full time flight attendant but my schedule is everywhere and I find myself home often with a lot of free time during the weekdays! I will gladly walk your dogs around on a leash and play whatever games they are into! I can give them all the attention they need!
“Ilya is great with Anto! She’s well taken care of. She was happy to see him when we dropped her off. He was very flexible with us since our flight got canceled. Thanks!”
“Hannah was amazing. She let us visit twice before the stay so that Happy would be comfortable. Happy stayed over Thanksgiving, but Hannah sent me videos and pictures every day. I recommend her sitting service 100%.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chelsea
We had an excellent experience with Tiffany and Steve! They were an absolute pleasure to work with—professional, attentive, transparent, and incredibly communicative. I was a little nervous leaving my Pumi, Hugo for a two-week stay so it was heartwarming and reassuring to see Hugo enjoying his daily walks, spending time with the other pups, and looking happy and comfortable in their care. Definitely appreciated the daily photo updates and feedback regarding his feeding, which gave such peace of mind. It meant so much knowing my Hugo was in such caring and capable hands. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I highly recommend Tiffany and Steve to anyone looking for trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring sitters. I will absolutely be booking with them again!
Cannot recommend Arlene & Josiah enough! They were incredibly kind and accommodating with our last-minute request and sent plenty of pictures and updates while we were away. Our girl got lots of walks, exercise, and socialization. She was well cared for, had a great time, and came out the door with a smile on her face! We’d absolutely book with them again.
Isabelle was so great with Sudo. She sent us ongoing updates and was really attentive to all of his quirks. This is the second time she’s watched over Sudo and he wagged his tail when he saw her and gave her a goodbye kiss when he left. We highly recommend Isabelle and would reach out again when we travel!
Mindy was so wonderful with my dog, Zoe! She was very easy to communicate with and sent lots of updates throughout Zoe’s stay, which I really appreciated. Zoe started limping a few days before her stay and Mindy took extra care with her and updated me on the limp. I highly recommend Mindy and hope that Zoe will have the chance to stay with her again!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gucci had such an amazing time with her babysitter! She was absolutely wonderful with him, and he got along so well with her kids. It made me so happy knowing Gucci was in a loving, safe, and fun environment where he was treated like part of the family. She took such great care of him, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I would definitely trust her with Gucci again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! ❤️🐾
This is the second time we have used Antonio. Antonio and his girlfriend take such incredible care of our Nadira, we get pictures and videos of her. He tells us how she is doing. Antonio is the only person besides family that I would trust to take such good care of Nadira. We will definitely use Antonio again. He is the best!!!
Jorge was absolutely fantastic! He was super responsive and kept me updated throughout with photos and videos, which gave me a total peace of mind while I was away. My dog can be sensitive, but I could tell right away that she felt comfortable, happy, and really liked him when I picked her up. I really appreciated Jorge taking care of my dog. I would highly recommend Jorge to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Chelsea is $58 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $94 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.
There are 4,060 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Chelsea. About 90% of Chelsea sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
