“Nicole provided excellent care for our 3 month old puppy. He had a wonderful day full of playtime and snuggles. She also provided lots of pictures throughout the day which we loved!”
“Samantha and her family were amazing with Strider! She worked to figure out the best way to burn his energy and to keep him happy. As a bonus, she lives in an area any dog would love with places to hike and things to smell. I absolutely recommend her!”
“Jie and her family were lovely hosts and took such great care of my pup! I was appreciative of the last minute meet and greet just to make sure it was a good fit for my little one and it certainly was. All the pictures and videos were wonderful and they kept her busy! I will certainly rebook in the future!”
“Leticia was wonderful with our dog. After welcoming us, she showed us her fenced backyard. Lovely. She sent pictures and videos and Savannah played with new puzzles. Really appreciate the loving care.”
About: My family has always had dogs, and I feel that they enhance the family unit. No discrimination against certain breeds. German Shepherd, Rottweiler, American Staffordshire, Boxer, makes no difference to me. I adore all the four-legged kids! I have my own four-legged kid, and truly appreciate the help I’ve received through Rover.com, while being at work or out of town. It’s such a relief to know that the he is taken care of, so I can continue working to provide for him. Updating you on the visit with pictures and/or videos, so you can see your four-legged kid(s) have been cared for, would be my pleasure. Dogs are family, and I would gladly treat yours as part of my pack. I would be happy to perform drop-in visits or walk your dog(s) during the day, or into the night hours, as my schedule allows. Currently, I am unavailable for midday drop-ins and walks Mondays through Thursdays. Updating you on the visit with pictures and/or videos, so you can see your four-legged kid(s) have been cared for, would be my pleasure. I happily treat your fur kids as lovingly as my own. Always checking that food and water bowls filled as needed. Utilizing the crate should they need it upon my leaving.
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”
“Swift, Brian, family were amazing with our two dogs! They sent lots of photos throughout the weekend and responded quickly. We will definitely be using them again and highly recommend!”
“Stephanie took great care of our two dogs - took them on long walks, treated them with love, and they had a great time. Will definitely be in touch with her again when we're back in the area!”
“Taylor and his wife were absolutely wonderful with my 2 girls! He updated me on how they did and their behavior and you can tell they really love dogs. Their 2 dogs are also well behaved and very sweet. I really like how open there home is so there’s lots of space for the dogs to run around, plus a nice backyard. Thank you guys!”
About: I’m an active, outdoorsy person who loves getting outside and enjoying some fresh air with a dog by my side. I especially enjoy walks, exploring new trails, and giving dogs plenty of time to play and get their energy out. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow their normal routines for meals, walks, playtime, and downtime. I want every dog in my care to feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their people are away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages along the way! I work remotely 5 days a week and have plenty of time to hang with your pup! Working from home gives me the flexibility to let your dog out for potty breaks as frequently as needed. I live close to a network of trails that your dog will love! My friendly Bernedoodle is always looking for friends and will keep us company!
“Ali and his wife took great care of Lilly while we were away. The pictures of Lilly and their pup Hasti were great as was the video they sent of Lilly at her favorite place the dog park. We recommend them highly.”
“Pat was a great petsitter for my little dog. She is very friendly and calm. We had a nice and thorough meet and greet at her house and went over my pup’s information. I provided some written info about my dog’s routines with feeding, meds etc that Pat was attentive to. My dog loved staying at Pat’s home, especially lying in the sunshine napping! I knew she was in good hands during the three days away, which allowed me to have a great trip. Pat’s husband was also very nice and my pup loved him too. I got a photo update each morning with a text about what Pat & my dog had been up to together. The one time my dog exhibited an unusual behavior (just instinctively trying to cover her food to save it for later!), Pat sent me a quick video to ask about it, which made me feel good about the care my dog was receiving. Overall I was totally happy with our experience having Pat petsit. We look forward to using her when I have to travel again soon and I recommend her without reservation. Thanks very much Pat!”
“Sofie took such good care of my little chihuahua! She sent me many updates and pics, and was very respectful of my home. She went out of her way to accomodate my early morning departure despite its inconvenience. I highly recommend her!”
“Trishul was so welcoming and took great care of my pup! He was very communicative, sending lots of photos/updates and I went on my trip assured that my dog was in good hands.”
About: My parents had a one year old dog when I was born so I started life with a canine sibling. A dog, or multiple actually, has always been by my side except between 7th and 9th grade, the loneliest two years ever. I lean towards the Irish Setter but I have raised Golden Retrievers, Boston Terriers, Yorkies and Standard Poodles. I currently have two Setters and one Standard. They speak fluent English and surf the Internet for creative ideas to keep mum busy. I am a retired high school teacher since one month and am looking for commitments on a flexible schedule. I want to be busy but not at the hectic pace that teaching requires. I spent 34 years in secondary education so teaching is natural for me. I have had a canine best friend for almost every of my 58 years and have done countless basic training classes. As a former division 1 athlete, I have an exercise centric lifestyle and thrive on being physically active. Retirement is leaving a void in my routine that I anticipate dog-walking will fill. I have a large property, the majority of which is fenced. The basement has a cage assembled, a cage in the closet and a large wooden pen that my three share when I am out. The furniture is dog friendly and I have enough leashes to walk a football team at once.

About: Hi, my name is Layton and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I've had furry family members since I was five years old and multiple re-occuring caretaking jobs, so I know how to care for your baby. From 2018 to 2020 I worked as a dog groomer and had the privilege to work with pups of all kind - big, small, young, old, excitable and laid-back. I especially love to provide YOU with a sense of comfort knowing that your pet is in wonderful hands. I am available for overnight sittings, drop-in visits, walks, trips to the dog park and even transports to the vet and groomer. Just let me know what kind of care your pet(s) need and I'll be there! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule for the time being. I am willing to take on weekly walks, occasional overnight sittings and longer term stays. I do not offer care at my home (I live with two cats that are not too fond of other animals). But, I can provide meals, walks, play and love for your pet in their own home!
“We needed someone to watch our dog Ziggy while we were away for a couple of days and was so happy we found Denise! She is very nice, responsive, and took amazing care of Ziggy. The photo updates were great and I could tell Ziggy was relaxed and happy. This was our first time using Rover as well and everything worked out perfectly. Will definitely be booking with Denise again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 243 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Erving. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
97% of sitters in Erving 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 Erving 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 Erving.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Erving. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Erving 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
