“We left our dogs in the hands of a very warm and caring man and his wife. My dogs loved it there and Phill kept us informed regularly as well as sending us many photos. We were gone 10 days and as any dog parent, missed them a lot but always felt comfortable about being away. Phill is always responsive and got back to us quickly when we contacted him. I've already referred him to several of our friends through Rover. Thanks Phill!!”
“I am so thrilled to have found Judy!! I've had Shilo stay with Judy and her husband a few times now and I couldn't be happier. Shilo loves to run and the large fenced in backyard is perfect. Judy's dog, Rosie is sweet and welcoming. The updates and photos are great and relieves any worry or stress that I may have had!!! When it comes time for pick up, although Shilo appears to be happy to see me she also seems quite content to stay with judy....which is a really good sign!!”
“Luiz and family have cared for my princess Becky many times over the last few years and have always provided her with the best experience at their K9 Resort,.! We are very fortunate to have such great place for her while I travel. Becky enjoyed her stay there very much, and can't wait to go back to see her friends! Excellent”
“Tracy was so sweet, very responsive, and you could tell she loves animals. She sent updates with pictures regularly and o could see he was so cared for. My dog Kanan came home a very happy pup! Thank you again Tracy!”
“Melissa was great ! My two Golden Retrievers had such a great time and loved being around the kids. They came home calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing they were in great hands. I would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have spent my entire life around animals so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I grew up in a household with over 40 animals, including dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I have spent years working in a small locally owned pet store in my home town taking care of exotics, before moving into kennel work at a vet’s office. I have experience in giving medications to dogs and cats in different methods, and monitoring their health afterwards. My primary role was offering our boarding pets the comfort of a home away from home. I’m a reptile dad every day, taking care of my own snake and bearded dragon babies. I’m currently home every day with time and love to give to other pets and their people who need an extra hand. I have a big room with a comfy bed that they can lay on in a nice couch that we can sit and watch shows on. I also have a fenced in yard outback that I can take them in to play, but I have a spacious cemetery up and across the street that is great for leash walks as well. I also have various toys and litter boxes as well.
“Emily was great, gave us plenty of updates of how Brodie was doing while he was under her care and was very easy to communicate and coordinate with. Would highly recommend and have her watch Brodie again!”
“My two dogs enjoyed their stay with Rachael and her family. It is a very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, and her two dogs are great! Outside time, sofa time, just perfect. We'll be back!!”
“Simply amazing—I recommend them wholeheartedly. She was attentive from the very first contact. We were quite apprehensive since it was Daisy's first time with a sitter, but they were very patient, and Daisy felt right at home! It is a healthy and safe environment. I will definitely contact her again if the need arises. We loved the care she received, and Daisy loved everything! Thank you.”
“Andreana is a great sitter! She has watched my 2 pups many times now and she is always easy to communicate with and very flexible, even when I change timing last minute! The boys always come home tired so I know they had fun!”
“My pug Monty had a great experience with Briana and her family. I was nervous because he's 12 years old and had never been left alone with anyone he doesn't know before, but after a short time he felt at home and was being his bossy self. She sent lots of pictures and I was able to stop feeling guilty about taking a vacation without him. He had lots of love and great care and we will definitely bring him back to Briana again!”
“Very thorough when I dropped my dog off Reported back to me the details of his day seemed very capable. Finn was very relaxed and seemed perfectly adjusted in a situation where he normally would be very upset. I pup has severe anxiety separation, but he did great.”
“Dee was great with our dog, Shiloh, while we were across the country for over a week. We received pictures showing her with all of her happiest body language and were told that Shiloh and Dee's dog got along like best friends. We will definitely ask Dee to watch Shiloh again.”
“Elaine’s the absolute BEST!! We are a multiple REPEAT customer/family. She treats our dog like family and we only have a great time away, knowing Our Simba is comfortable and well taken care of by her. She’s worth every penny and more. Thanks again for another awesome visit/boarding! We’ll be back again very soon. :) - DeMoro Family <3”
“We booked our 9-year old Golden "puppy" for a 4 night stay with Peter and his family and we are very happy that we chose Peter. He and his family took good care of our pup and Peter sent an update everyday. When we cam back to pick up our pup it was clear that she wanted to stay, nudging us back to the house and away from the car. Thanks guys for taking such good care of our pup!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fitchburg
She was amazing with our dog and took a last minute booking from us. I was hesitant because this was the first time we had ever left our dog with someone other than family. From the moment I dropped him off I knew he was in good hands. Great communication and wonderful experience. Will be using again in the future.

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.
91% of Fitchburg 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 Fitchburg 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 Fitchburg 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 Fitchburg.
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 Fitchburg 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.
