About: Bio is underneath but first what to expect from me when you book the following services: Dog Walk: depending on your needs and likes, I will walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood or take them somewhere else if preferred. I always carry treats, doggie baggies and extra leashes. The dog will remain leashed at all times. Pick up time can vary by about up to half an hour due to other clients prior. Drop-In visit: Food and fresh water is given, as well as toilet break. To fill agreed upon 30 minutes there will be snuggles, play time or perhaps quick brushing if desired. Client may add another 30 minutes and specify if a little walk is desired as well. If an accident occurred this will be dealt with right away and added to notes and pictures. Overnight house/pet sitting: (Day 1) 7-9am; noon check in; 5-9pm. You can expect me to give Feed and fresh wate, clean up after pets(inside and outside, please provide info on where to put doggie bags after), walk, snuggle, play with as needed or desired. Stay overnight: please let me know if you do NOT want me to stay the night. The hours above will be applied here. Otherwise provide clean bedsheets. Optional: I am happy to also bring in your mail, water plants(inside and outside) and adjust lights. For my personal assessment please provide a list of those tasks as well as any other pets that may need caring for. BIO I have been a pet owner since I was a kid and have always been helping neighbors with their pets by walking their dogs for the elderly neighbors, caring for bunnies or cats and helping brush horses and moving them to pasture in my neighborhood growing up in Germany. I have been a dog, cat, and chicken owner for a while, and we even have a rabbit, and adopted a leopard gecko at some point. I am also a wife, mom of 4 kids and enjoy home making/ and a lot of home steading here on our micro farm. Staying at home and being available to my kids is priority. I am luckily they share my love for animals. I am a long time U.S. resident (since 2007), and have been raised in Germany. My English is fluent, and I have been told that I don't have an accent anymore, so communicate is definitely not an issue. I would love to care for your little furry (or not so furry) pet, may it be checking in for a feed or potty break, overnight stay, or a relaxing or vigorous walk. I am looking forward to meeting you! I am stay at home mom and have a lot of flexibility when it comes to stepping out to visit your furry friend. All I ask is to have notice and be respectful of my time and schedule. And I will reciprocate this of course! I am flexible and cater to anybody's unique needs. As long as I have ample notice and frequent communication. I am happy to send pictures and text messages during a visit/feeding if so desired. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
“Samantha took amazing care of my little cat and guinea pig . She was on time , commutative and showed that she really has a big heart that cares about people and their animals. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for her amazing service.”
“Anna took great care of my 1 year old dog who is a ball of energy! 10/10 recommend great sitter and clear she is a genuine dog lover. Would 100% ask her to sit my dog again and fully vouch for anyone else to consider dropping theirs off to her! Thank you Anna!”
“Patty and Roxie had a great weekend staying with Mike. I received multiple photos and updates on the good time my dogs had. The large fenced yard was great for my dogs to play with Mikes dogs”
“We appreciate Jeremy and Rui so much! Not only did they allow us to add our 2nd dog the night before our 10 day trip (realizing we’d be happier them together) but also sent such happy photos of our dogs playing and getting love every day. We know they had a great time and were cared for greatly. Will definitely book with them again.”
“Life got very chaotic very quickly with a family emergency, we were at odds what to do with Sara since she could not go with us. Luckily, Maghan and her family was able to take her, It was like leaving Sara with a trusted family member, the daily photos we were sent made the stress of having to leave her dissolve, I felt she was on vacation and extremely well taken care of.”
“Anna was great taking care of our boys and she was very accommodating to our schedule. She communicated promptly about any concerns and made sure to always send updates. My dogs loved their stay with Anna!”
“Britney was a wonderful sitter for our lab over a long weekend. Our dog came home exhausted and happy after her weekend with Britney, which included lots of playing, walking the neighborhood, and snuggling. Britney provided my husband and I with photo updates frequently, which we appreciated. Would book with Britney again in a heartbeat!”
“Taylor genuinely exceeded my expectations from day one. She was incredibly attentive and consistently kept me updated with photos, activities, and observations about Draco’s behavior throughout his stay. She asked all the right questions, and it’s clear she takes pride in her work and genuinely enjoys what she does. Since she works from home, Draco received plenty of attention throughout the day. She took him on numerous walks, trips to the dog park, and little adventures that kept him active and engaged. Beyond that, Taylor is professional, personable, easygoing, and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing Draco was in her hands, which says a lot. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. I think I just found Draco’s new go-to sitter, and I couldn’t be happier about it. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, keep you informed, and genuinely go above and beyond, Taylor is exactly who you want. I recommend her without hesitation and would trust her with Draco again in a heartbeat. She sets the standard for what a great sitter should be!”
“Alyson is truly amazing! She gave us updates regularly and I felt so happy knowing our dog was in a loving place! Our dog was the happiest she’s ever been after picking her up from a sitter, so I know she was really well cared for! Will definitely plan to use Alyson again for sitting!”
“Absolutely fantastic experience. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing that Edna was with great people. Will certainly ask them to watch Edna again in future. Also enjoyed the daily updates.”
“Casey was wonderful. Our dog loved her instantly, and we understand why. We felt really at peace on our vacation knowing our good girl was under Casey’s care. She sent lots of photos and checked in regularly. Will definitely rebook!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Duxbury is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $47 per night.

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 Duxbury 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 Duxbury home-away-from-home, 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 Duxbury.
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 Duxbury 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 , 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 .
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.
