“Heather, My experience with you was nothing short of amazing for both my dog, Sawyer, and myself. Even before booking, you showed a genuine interest in learning all about Sawyer. It was clear that you not only love dogs but truly wanted to make him feel welcome in your home. You provided a dog-friendly environment and kept me well-informed with regular updates and photos through the Rover app. Thank you for taking such great care of him. He’s really looking forward to his next visit with you. BTW, he enjoyed the rest of his Birthday Cupcake! Warm regards, Brian”
“Katy was great! she was very flexible and answered right away. Josie had a great time staying with her and a lot of fun with the other dogs there. She got to do her favorite thing, a hike! Thank you Katy! WE’ll definitely ask you to take care of Josie again!”
“Christopher and Ali were wonderful! They took great care of our pups while we were away for the weekend and shared timely photos and updates throughout their stay. It was reassuring to see them happy, playing, and enjoying time with the other dogs. We would gladly book with Christopher and Ali again!”
“Megan was great! We came from out of town for an extended stay, and wanted to take a one day excursion without our dog Bentley. Even knowing it was likely to be a one-time dog-sitting opportunity - or at least very occasional - Megan was very responsive, arranged a meeting with her dog in advance, and when the day came, the two dogs and Megan all got along great! Bentley seemed happy to see us but reluctant to leave when we picked him up! And we got a lot of feedback and pictures during both days of his one-night stay. If the opportunity comes up again, we'll definitely turn to Megan again, too!”
“Jack had a great time! Came home happier than he has been since our older dog died in early Dec. He had so much fun & doggie activity that he napped from 4-11 then got up to eat dinner!!!”
“Pepper had a 10 day stay with Julie and had a fantastic time playing with Tatum and friends! Pics every day for updates. Cats were well satisfied with someone refilling the food bowls and enjoyed having the house to themselves! Thanks Julie!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Matt and Patty provided for our Golden Retriever during the 10 nights we were out of the country. From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care. We were able to visit their home beforehand, and they have a wonderful setup, including a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for him to play. Throughout our trip, Matt and Patty sent us frequent updates and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. They took him on daily walks around the neighborhood, gave him lots of attention, and it was very clear that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What really stood out to us was how they handled a day when he wasn’t feeling well and developed some stomach issues. Matt immediately contacted us, proactively made an appointment with the vet, and made sure we were comfortable with him taking our dog in to be seen. Afterward, Matt and Patty followed the vet’s recommendations closely and even cooked rice and beef for his meals for several days while his stomach recovered. They truly cared for him as if he were their own. When we returned, we came home to a very happy puppy, and we could tell he had been loved and well cared for the entire time. We are so excited to have found Matt and Patty. Finding people you can completely trust with your dog while you’re away is incredibly important, and we feel very fortunate to have found such reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring sitters. We would absolutely recommend them and will not hesitate to have them care for our dog again!”
“Andrew and family took wonderful care of my dog Sammie. They made the process so easy and sent pictures of our girl with updates. I highly recommend them and will use their services again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Family members, friends, neighbors, etc. have always had pets and have relied on me to take care of them for periods of time. I work on a hybrid schedule, so I am home most Mondays, Fridays - Sundays all day. When I am in the City working I have breaks where I can walk dogs that are close by as well. I don’t have any pets in my home, I live with my fiance who has grown up owning multiple dogs at a time. We have no children in the home either. We live in a townhouse with a front and back yard.
“My Dog Bella means the world to me. After booking with Lindsay, I have nothing but positive reviews for Bella’s stay. Her house, environment was clean. Lindsay was warm, professional and I could tell without a doubt that Bella would be safe and happy. In the future, I will use noone but Lindsay!! Five stars with ease!!!!”
“We had an amazing experience with our Laura ! This was the first time we had ever left our dog, with someone else, and he was understandably very anxious. She went above and beyond to make him feel calm, safe, and comfortable throughout his stay. She paid close attention to his food habits, followed his regular sleeping schedule, and genuinely cared about making the transition as stress-free as possible for him. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. She is kind, patient, and truly loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Cookie!”
“Highly recommend! Kara was amazing with our Bella. I was super nervous leaving her with a new person but Kara was so good to her. Bella loved being the only dog and being spoiled. It was like home away from home.”
“When we found out we were going to go out of town, Kyla and her family were the first ones we thought of to take care of Ethel. She seemed to remember her last stay there and felt comfortable fitting in immediately. Kyla and family treated Ethel like family. She sent daily updates and answered my questions about Ethel whenever I reached out right away. Definitely recommend and will use her again.”
“Loved Lyndsey and appreciated all the time she spent with Buddy. Enjoyed all the updates and pictures from the weekend. Will definitely plan another stay in the future!”
“The is the second time I booked with Annmarie. Annmarie was very accommodating with my last minute request as I flew unexpectedly to see my parents. You can absolutely tell she adores dogs of all kinds and my little Pearly is no exception. She was treated like a queen.”
“Dogs came home happy and well balanced! Clearly they had been well cared for and given the proper amount of exercise. Kexin and Carlos sent lots of pictures and videos giving me a lot of confidence and comfort in knowing that selecting them was the right choice! My dogs loved their large, fenced in backyard! My 2 dogs got along beautifully with their dog and cats. They even added some healthy supplements to my dogs’ food that they add to their dog’s food! Will be using them again soon!”
“Anthony and Zanely took such good care of our dog while we were away. They kept us updated, took her on adventures, and spent quality time with her. Would definitely recommend them!”
“Adreine took great care of our dog during our week long vacation. She supplied us with daily updates and videos of her getting exercise during walks or in her fenced in backyard. We highly recommend this very professional sitter!”

Heather is the consummate sitter. She and Ian are absolutely the most friendly and caring people you could possibly meet, and they are so wonderful with our dog Zuzu. You will get photos and updates every morning and evening and feel completely confident that your pet is at his or her home away from home. What they provide is the happy summer camp experience. Zuzu will be a regular!

Jessica was amazing with my giant, goofy lap dog! She was diligent and thoughtful in organizing our meet and greet with her adorable pup. She’s clearly experienced, caring, and responsible. I got some adorable pics of Marv having a swim in her back yard and he was happy and healthy as can be when I picked him up. I’d happily book with Jessica again on my next trip where Mr. Marv can’t join me 🐶☺️
Emily was fantastic with my dog, Ruby! I was honestly a bit nervous leaving her since she has separation anxiety and we were traveling into town for a wedding, but Emily’s clear and prompt communication beforehand immediately put me at ease. During Ruby’s stay, she sent lots of updates and photos, and it was obvious Ruby was having the best time. Ruby can be a finicky eater, and Emily somehow worked her magic and got her to eat, which is no small feat. She also had an amazing time playing with Emily’s smaller dog, Miley - they were such a great match! When I picked Ruby up in the evening, she was happy and tired in the best way. Emily provided a clean, safe environment with a fenced-in yard and was very flexible, which I really appreciated. Emily is incredibly kind, friendly, and clearly loves dogs. I would use her again in a heartbeat. I just wish we lived closer! Highly recommend.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Franklin on Rover is $64.76 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,960 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Franklin. 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.
91% of Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin.
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 Franklin 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.
