“All went well with Buttercup’s stay with Michelle while we were away for 5 days, and Buttercup came home contented and well cared for. Michelle even made the extra effort to drive up some dog toys to is that gor left behind at her place the next day. Buttercup was beyond thrilled to see her show up at her house which tells me that she was well cared for. We would definitely use Michelle again!”


“It was Murphy’s second time ever staying away from home, and his first Rover experience so we were nervous about how he would do. Sean was so responsive through the entire process, kind, understanding and flexible with us. He shared updates so we were assured Murphy was doing well, and Murphy had a great time. He seemed comfortable going in, and almost like he was sad his vacation had ended at pickup. He was well exercised and ready for a nap after vacation, just like we were!”

“Natacha was amazing with our dog! She would send us pictures/updates throughout and took such great care of her. We will for sure be using her again as dogsitter.”

“Sarah and Ben were great! Very welcoming and felt comfortable immediately. Communication while I was away was detailed and the pics were amazing! Saiije will be back with them again”

“Alan & Ying are great dog sitters. I get little videos every other day or so, and my boy is taken care of. Alan is very responsive to messages and obviously loves dogs.”

“Mokeisha was AMAZING! She was available last minute over the holidays, and we were so lucky she could help. She watched my goldendoodle for several days over Christmas while I was out of town, and she was such a wonderful communicator. She sent sweet and funny updates about my pup at least twice a day and kept me at ease the whole time I was away. I loved the messages and pictures :) She was extremely responsive, and always available to message. She went above and beyond to make sure my boy was cared for, got his walks and making sure he got his meals and his twice daily medication. When it snowed, she even gave Barley a bath and dried his hair!!!! Thank you so much Mokeisha, you are so awesome!! Would highly recommend and use again!”


“I had a family emergency and had to spend long hours in the hospital and luckily Debbie was available very last minute. She provided great care for Tiggy! She updated me multiple times daily with photos which helped and was appreciated. She was easy to communicate with, friendly and her dogs are adorable and got along well with mine. I’ve already asked about future dates and will definitely use her again. She also invited me into her home so I could see where Tiggy would be spending her time and that was great for my peace of mind.”

“Steven was great with our dog. We boarded her with him for a long weekend She is a nervous girl and often barks at new people. When I dropped her off he took her leash and her treats and immediately got her to sit and calm down. During her stay with Steven he sent us photos, which I appreciate. When I picked her up she was in good spirits and wagging her tail which is always a good sign. We will definitely be using Steven's services again.”

“Tianyue took great care of Elliot. She sent lots of photos and managed his medications and eye drops very well. I felt super comfortable leaving Elliot with her for nearly a week.”

“Nalix is probably the most experienced sitter that Elly has ever stayed with. She knew exactly how to handle Elly as she got adjusted to the apartment and when she showed some exhibits of resource guarding. Her apartment has a nice fenced in area outside for easy access to fetch at any point in the day. I would 100% ask Nalix to watch Elly again.”

“Awesome down to Earth couple. My dog Luna had a rough first night and they were nothing but kind to her, understanding her nerves in a new home. Luna warmed up to them after the first night and they sent me photos throughout the trip which comforted me. Highly recommend Stephen and Cece!”

“Jadeth and Noah boarded Arlo at their apartment for almost 3 weeks over the holidays after last minute construction in my apartment altered plans to keep Arlo at home. Arlo was well taken care of and I got frequent and timely updates and pictures! Thank you both so much and will definitely be in touch again!”

“This was our first booking with Alex and it was an outstanding experience. Our mini poodle had the time of her life playing with the other 2 dogs. Alex is a great communicator and takes his responsibility of dog care very seriously. Lovely big fenced back yard that provided lot of safe room to run about. We all look forward to booking with Alex again in the near future.”


“Kaelyn was able to book my dog stella for boarding on short notice. I also mistakenly entered the wrong start date but she was able to accommodate me a day earlier, which I very much appreciated. My dog seemed to get along well with her adorable little pup. Thank you, Kaelyn”

“Sheila was great with Lila and very communicative! She was not phased at all by Lila’s medication schedule or special instructions for walking :) I would definitely recommend her to take care of your dog!”

Minglu and Yulin were so great with my poodle while we were away for ten days. Bear took to them immediately and I just could tell from the start he was going to adapt quickly thanks to their friendly and welcoming dispositions. I got daily updates with pictures to ease my mind about how he was doing. They communicated promptly and were very flexible with my drop off and pickup needs. I would happily recommend them to anyone and would easily book with them again!

Kayla took such great care of our pup and kept us updated with photos and messages. Fenix was happy, tired out with play and walks, and well loved. Kayla even looked out for her during the stressful July 4th fireworks. We will def book again and highly recommend her!

As an owner to a newly adopted dog, I was very anxious about having to leave my dog behind for two days so soon after bringing her home. Jodi was quick with responses, sent lots of pictures and videos, and asked questions when necessary. She was wonderful and I will be booking her again. Thank you, Jodi!

Julie was fantastic. After my family met with her we knew instantly she was the one for us. We used her overnight for our son’s wedding and could not have been happier. We had never had our Molly stay with anyone other than a family member so this was a big deal for us, plus the first time we used Rover. Julie put me at ease and shared pictures of her and Molly. Cannot go wrong with Julie. Highly recommended!!

Dan was great with my two dogs. Very communicative and sent many updates/photos which I appreciated. Also kept me updated with what they did during the day. The dogs seemed very happy and comfortable there. Dan also did well with my senior dog who definitely has his quirks at times. Thank you!

Joe had the BEST time with Karin and Charlie, truly his home away from home and he has been so sad to leave. We got daily messages and adorable photos each day from Karin and they were so attentive to Joe's needs and daily medication and quirks. We can't wait to have them babysit him again, I'm sure Joe feels the same. A+++++ sitters

Debbie took great care of our dog, Sam recently. She has such a sweet and calm nature that put Sam at ease and she shared pics of Sam so we could see how he was doing. I was really impressed that she even played one of Sam’s favorite games with him, which I know made Sam happy as it did us as well.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Dedham on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,475 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dedham. About 91% of Dedham 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
