“Lulu just spent over 2 wonderful weeks with Bob and Hyesun. Lulu had a great time with them! Bob sent us great photos of Lulu often, and Hyesun cooked fresh food, like eggs and sweet potatoes for Lulu. They also brush her often to keep her mat free. We will definitely ask Bob and Hyesun to take care of Lulu again in the future.”

“It was a pleasure working with Zwany and Leandro. They were very considerate and professional. They asked all the right questions before watching Jane. Jane enjoyed her stay. She took to them and their dog straight away. Jane is a bit standoffish sometimes. We got regular updates and pictures. Very nice people. I would feel very comfortable having them watch Jane in the future.”

“I recently had the pleasure of having Christian watch my dog, Sheba, while I was out of town, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Christian took exceptional care of Sheba, ensuring she was happy and well-looked after throughout my trip. Sheba was clearly content and comfortable under his care, which gave me great peace of mind. One of the best parts of Christian's service was the regular updates, pictures, and videos he sent. It was so reassuring to see Sheba having a great time and being well cared for. Christian's dedication and love for animals truly shine through in the way he looked after Sheba. I would absolutely use his services again and highly recommend him to anyone needing a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Whether you're going on a trip, vacation, or just out of town for the weekend, Christian is the person to call for top-notch pet care.”

About: I have been always a pet lover since my childhood I grow up around many different species of animals. I had rabbits, small birds, big parrots , guinea pigs, and many stray cats and dogs that my family rescued from the streets of Brazil which is my original place of birth. I think the joy, companionship and unconditional love they give to us It’s priceless. Pets are amazing and very special to me because they make my life so much happier. I work most days from home as a dog groomer, which give me the flexibility to play with my puppies and yours during the day and take care of their needs at night. I have two friendly golden retrievers names, Rocky and Skyla they enjoy to play and meet new friends. I currently offer play groups two times per week at my house where they can get to play and run around with other dogs. I also have a huge backyard all fenced and with cameras to make sure our babies are safe and secured all the time. During the summer, they can enjoy themselves playing inside the dog pool with sprinklers and doing other water activities to freshen up but if they prefer they can just relax under the shade of the one many trees in the backyard . They are going to feel that they are in a pet resort where they can run free and happy during their stay. Pick up and drop off are available near my area as well a discount on GROOMING for new guests.. I accept dogs of any age and with any limitations and physical disability If you are looking for someone reliable and trustful to take care of your fur baby I am here to help you . Thank you and I am looking forward to meet you and your pet soon. 🐶🐕🦮🐩🐕‍🦺 I work from home most days which allows me to spend a lot of time with my dogs and play with them outside in the backyard. My backyard is all fenced and we have cameras but even so the dogs are never left alone outside . All plants and flowers are safe for pets so you don’t need to worry about them eating anything dangerous.

“We had a wonderful experience with Ana and would absolutely book with her again! She was fantastic with communication, sending daily updates and pictures that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog happened to be going through one of her picky eating phases during our trip, and she went above and beyond to help. She tried different bowls, chopped up the turkey we had left as a topper and mixed it into her food, and was so patient and creative in trying to get her to eat. It was clear she genuinely cared about our dog’s well-being. She also took her on multiple walks each day and made sure she got plenty of attention and exercise. On top of that, she was incredibly accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up schedule, which made the entire experience stress-free. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our dog and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!”

Kristen and Ben were great with Yukon. They took excellent care of him, lots of nice walks, great pics and notes. It was our first time using Rover, we were out of the country and a little apprehensive about leaving a 13 year old husky with strangers. The experience couldn’t have been better. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Thanks

Jennifer was wonderful to our aging dog who has terrible separation anxiety. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing she was home with her all day. She provided several walks per day, and plenty of comfortable places for her to nap. My dog just helped herself to a basket filled with toys. She seemed very comfortable there. Jennifer dispensed eye medicine daily and sent us plenty of updates and photos. Highly recommend.

This is the third time Tina has taken care of Bill and we'll continue to use her help. She keeps us informed with pictures and videos on how Bill is doing and she keeps him very busy as well. Bill is always happy to see her and stay with her and that gives us a peace of mind knowing that he is also happy when we are having "adult" vacations. We highly recommend her, she is trustworthy, reliable and very easy to talk to.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 3,763 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clifton. 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 Clifton 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 Clifton 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 Clifton.

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 Clifton 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.
