“So glad we found Brooke!!! We had deferred family vacations out of driving distance for the past two years because we no longer had family nearby who could watch our pups. That has all changed now. Rover.com was recommended by a friend and truthfully I was a bit hesitant until I met Brooke. She responded so quickly to my messages when I was exploring sitters and as soon as the pups met her I knew this would be a great match. She treated our girls like family, letting them nap on the furniture (just like at home), taking them for walks and playing fetch. She sent us pictures each day of the dogs and it made us feel so much more at ease seeing they were being loved on. I can not say enough kind things about Brooke and her family and I highly recommend her. She went exceedingly above what was necessary and we will certainly be calling on her again!”
“Irene has been such a great find in the Berkshires! She always gives helpful communication with each stay, and Ruby seems to love her time with Irene (and her sweet dog Goldie). Thanks for all of the care that you give to Ruby - we'll see you soon!”
“Yenifer took excellent care of my dog. He was so happy with her! She made sure she communicated everyday with us during the stay, sent us pictures and updates. We are very happy with her services and would strongly recommend her. Thank you, Yenifer.”
“My dog was well taken care of and didn't spend my vacation locked up in a kennel, so I didn't have to worry about her. Aura sent pictures and updates every day, and I was very happy with the whole situation.”
About: I waitress, have taken care of seniors and am a certified yoga instructor. I have had cats, dogs, chicks, fish, hamsters. I currently do not own any pets. Pets to me are precious friends who are to be taken care of like children. With full attention, support and love. I work from home so I am able to provide that kind of care. I work from home (virtually) and can accommodate boarding weekdays and weekends. I keep a clean and tidy home and have a gorgeous park very close by. Pet care fits in my routine as I used to have a cat until recently. I care for pets with respect and integrity. Showing them love and care. Keeping them and the area around them clean. Accommodating to their needs by always keeping an eye for out for them.
“Amazing sit for my pup. I could just tell Tatiana loves animals and took to my little Zoe (4 y/o mini Aussie) right away. Got some photo updates and was super responsive to messaging. Highly recommend!”
“I have no words for Mahayla! Couldn't ask for anyone better than you!! She went above and beyond for Chow and Zoe in their stay.We know 100% sure they will be safe and well taken care when they are with her.”
About: I’ve been on Rover for 5 years now! I have lots of experience with animals and my education background is in biology and animal sciences I am available pretty much whenever to do drop ins or walks for your pets!! Let me know what you need and I can accommodate :) I always make sure to follow the owners instructions and communicate with them! Communication is important when taking care of someone else’s animals! I make sure to send lots of pictures as well
“Deanne and Garrett did a great job and we’d happily use them again anytime. Our dog isn’t the easiest but I could quickly tell that they appreciated the individual she is and would do a wonderful job keeping her happy and safe.”
“Patti’s whole family stepped in to help care for Love. They were so attentive, sent pictures and updates every day we were gone, and treated her like a little princess. 10 out of 10 would recommend.”
“We would not hesitate to use Jennifer again. She was very attentive and conscientious to our requests in caring for our senior dog, including medications. She was very loving and kind and made our dog feel very much at home. Jennifer was very communicative and responsive before and during Jessie’s stay. We appreciated knowing that all was well while we were away.”
“Patty took fabulous care of our two dogs while we were in New York visiting our son at college. She went above and beyond making sure our girls felt right at home! We loved the updates and pictures and we very much look forward to having them stay with Patty the next time we are in the area! We highly recommend Patty!!”
“Our energetic black lab had such a great time with Karl and his dogs! When we picked her up she was happy and relaxed. Communication with Karl was very easy: he responded quickly to any questions we had, and sent pictures every day! His place is a great set up with a fenced in yard and safe areas for dogs to move around indoors. We will definitely use Karl again in the future!”
“Vera is an incredible host! Our 1yo pup was in excellent hands while we were away for a week. She accommodated an extra day and gave plenty of daily exercise and attention. We’ll be back for another stay for sure!”
“Mary & Todd are a dream come true! We were very nervous leaving our baby with someone we didn’t know, for the first time, and Mary made us feel so beyond comfortable. The photos, updates and check ins made us think Tilly may never want to come back home! Our pup went for rides, walks, runs, errands, ball chases and partook in endless fun for two straight days. I’m not sure how Mary & Todd could possibly have more energy than our dear Tilly but she’s officially exhausted and had the adventure of a lifetime. My husband joked that we should do this as a doggy camp once a month, we just may ask if they’d be down!”
“Both of our dogs were calm and relaxed after a 4-day stay. James was attentive to all of their needs and was very kind. His roomates were a bonus, because someone was almost always around to hang out with our dogs! Thanks James, we will be back!”
“Thanks to Rebecca, we enjoyed an amazing concert on our vacation and didn't worry about our dog for a second. She put me at ease before I ever met her. She happily anwered my questions and she asked questions that showed me that she really wanted to make our dog's stay pleasant. Her warmth and love for dogs was apparent as soon as I met her. And it was apparent to my dog, too-- she immediately connected to her. I told Rebecca that our dog loves to play fetch, and Rebecca played fetch with her as we drove away. While we were at our concert, Rebecca texted me to let me know our dog was doing great. She told us that our dog was playing with her dogs and that she and her husband had taken all three on a walk. She also sent along a few photos. When we went to pick our dog up, she was happy. to see us but didn't run to our car. She went back to Rebecca-- maybe to say goodbye! We had such a wonderful time at our concert and it was all thanks to Rebecca. We will definitely book her again! And we know our dog will be thrilled to see her!!”
“Amazing dog sitter, Kathleen! She really understands how to meet and great your dogs with her dogs and others. Definitely a dog whisperer no joke. Has a great safe yard, take them for walks and just overall comfortable atmosphere. Will recommend Kathleen any time 24/7 for your cool dogs.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 178 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Dalton. 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.
95% of Dalton 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 Dalton 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 Dalton 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 Dalton.
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 Dalton 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.
