“Julie did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Cal! He is usually shy and fearful of strangers, but she was incredibly patient with him and soon coaxed him out of his shell. Julie also did a great job of sending us a constant stream of pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”
“Thank you! Cindy (Shuhua) took care of my dog, who has complex health needs and takes medication 3 times a day. She was responsible and patient as I went over all my dog's care instructions and vet information. She sent regular photos and updates, and was careful to monitor for changes in my dog's health/behavior and report back to me. I am a devoted dog mom, and it's very important for me to have a sitter I can trust to take care of my dog properly so I feel comfortable being away. Cindy was just as wonderful as I had anticipated! Plus, she's a great baker! I will reach out again in the future for my pet care needs :)”
“We could not be more thankful for Jing and her family’s wonderful care of our pup! It was clear that Harper had a blast and was treated as a part of Jing’s family. While we were away, Jing’s intermittent photo updates with Harper let us know our puppy was enjoying her own vacation. Jing also went out of her way to help us coordinate pickup times when our travel plans changed. We hope Harper has a chance to stay with Jung again sometime in the future- we know she would love it.”
“Isabella did a great job in minding Marvin and Mellow. My cats are usually nervous at first, but settled down really well throughout their stay. She kept us in the loop with loads of photos and videos. By the end, our cats were content and I would definitely book her again!”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Coco had a great time with Su and enjoyed her vacation at his house. Su kept us updated daily and honestly I don’t think Coco wants to come home with us at the end of the week. Su is totally trust worthy and easy to work with. I won’t be looking for any other sitter to leave my daughter with but him! Thank you for being so loving and caring to Coco!”
“Zarah is amazing!! My dog (Monty) is a quirky boy with lots of anxiety. Zarah was immediately attentive, empathetic, and understanding :) She truly cared about learning everything about Monty and how best to care for him, and she sent tons of pictures and updates! I trust Zarah implicitly and know Monty is in great hands with her. He felt at home right away, and he will be happy to see Zarah and Honey again soon :)”
“Lee and her entire family are incredible dog sitters and treated Darla like their own! She warmed up to them right away and loved the fully fenced in yard. Lee was very responsive and provided daily updates and photos of her time with them. I cannot recommend them enough!”
“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with my dog during his one-day stay! From the moment I dropped him off, she made both of us feel comfortable and welcomed. She was attentive, friendly, and clearly experienced with dogs, which really put my mind at ease. Throughout the day, she sent me updates and photos showing how happy and relaxed my pup was in her care. It was clear she gave him lots of attention, playtime, and affection, and he came home content and tired from such a fun day. I really appreciated how communicative and professional Elizabeth was—she made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I’d definitely trust her to care for my dog again in the future!”
“Shana was great with our dog Basil! She watched her just overnight but Basil definitely looks like she got plenty of walks, attention, and couch time! Will definitely keep Shana in mind for future sits!”
“Alan was so helpful in accommodating our last minute drop-off and pick-up schedule changes. We were provided updates with accompanying pictures of Murphy throughout our entire trip and felt he was in good hands. We would love to have Murphy be a repeat client. Thank you for all your help and for taking such good care of our guy.”
“Thank you Alex so much for taking care of Moab during July 4th weekend. Alex accommodated short notice boarding and very flexible with pickup/drop off time. Tons of update pictures he sent throughout the days. No issues with the stay whatsoever. I trust Alex caring for my senior dog. I will definitely use Alex next time when I’m out of town. No doubt!”
“Lorena was great with our little puppy! She gave lots of updates and was very patient when he had a few accidents indoors! Would absolutely trust her again!”
“My dog Risa had been to Lyn’s a few times before and I was so happy Lyn was available to sit for her during our week-long vacation! Risa hadn’t been away from us and our house for that long but I knew she would be in great hands and would have a wonderful week with Lyn!! It was a great experience as always… Lyn sends occasional photos and updates to let me know that Risa is enjoying herself and I can tell she’s in great care 🥰”
“Nalix and her family took wonderful care of my dog for 30 days! Nalix sent me photos and updates regularly and always responded to my messages very quickly. I 100% recommend her service and will definitely use it again! :D”
“Kimberly and Brian were wonderful! They took sent lots of updates and pictures of my pup and took great care of him. With a senior dog who has to take medication morning and night, it was a relief to have him in such good friends. And he and their dog, Lola, became buds by the end of it. Would absolutely recommend them!”

Andrea is fantastic! I was thrilled to book Andrea’s services, as she is the ultimate professional. We needed 5 nights of overnight coverage for our 3-year-old labradoodle puppy. Andrea very kindly answered all my questions about how she would care for Sammy. She took excellent care of him for 5 days and nights. Throughout Sammy’s stay, Andrea sent many pictures of a very happy puppy. Sammy typically has a lot of eye secretions, and Andrea followed all of our instructions and did an excellent job of keeping his eyes clean and healthy. Sammy came home happy, healthy, and tired from playing with the other dogs. We feel so lucky to have found Andrea and highly recommend her dog sitting and boarding services!
Highly recommend! Eddy took amazing care of my dog Buttercup when I went away for the weekend. This was Buttercup’s first time at boarding and she had the best time. The whole process was positive from start to finish. Eddy responded to my request quickly, scheduled a meet and greet with my dog that was convenient and timely, and then he maintained excellent communication leading up to the planned weekend. Eddy and team sent me awesome photos and updates throughout Buttercup’s stay, which I loved. The pick up and drop off coordination was also fantastic, so I didn’t have to worry about logistics. Buttercup will definitely be back with Eddy for her next boarding stay.
This was our first time using Rover, and Holly made us feel completely at ease from the start. Mochi takes a while to warm up to new people and situations, and Holly was so experienced and patient with her that we never had to worry. She was also a great communicator and sent us regular updates and photos while we were away. Mochi was in wonderful hands! We would absolutely recommend Holly and will definitely use her again.
Su took such fantastic care of Fiona. From the start, we could tell that she felt at ease. Throughout her stay, her body language in the pictures showed that how comfortable and happy she was. Su kept us well informed, was very attentive to her needs and was very flexible with us. We'd love to have Fiona stay with Su again, thank you for taking such good care of her and giving us peace of mind!
Danielle took exceptionally good care of our Cavapoo Chaco while we were away for a long weekend. She sent us regular updates with photos and it was clear that our dog was in good hands. Danielle is easy to communicate with, is an extremely competent and dedicated pet sitter, and will certainly be our choice going forward for caring for our dog. I highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for excellent care for their furry friend!
Hannah was amazing with Mochi. While Mochi is easy to take care of at home, her reactiveness is something to be watched outside, and Hannah navigated through it without any issues allowing Mochi to have a great time. Mochi seemed very happy when I picked her up and I also got plenty of updates throughout the stay.
Kim is one of the kindest and sweetest people ever. She took excellent care of my pups, communicated well, and sent photos throughout the day. She has earned my trust, and I plan to use her as my dogs’ primary dog sitter. Thank you for taking care of Lucky and Petunia; they had such a great time and will miss you and your family!
Jing was communicative and so friendly. I received regular updates and was not concerned about Lola at all making our time away very relaxing. She even made accommodations for alternate drop off and pick up sites due to road closures caused by construction. I would absolutely book again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Chestnut Hill on Rover is $45 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,102 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Chestnut Hill. 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 Chestnut Hill 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 Chestnut Hill 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 Chestnut Hill 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 Chestnut Hill.
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 Chestnut Hill 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.
