“Michelle was kind and patient with Nala and Sadie (and me, who had more anxiety than the both of them!!). It was their first time ever boarding with someone and they came home happy and exhausted. I really appreciated Michelle's communication and sending me videos and pictures for updates so I felt at ease and knew my pups were taken care of.”
“I’d like to give them 10 stars!!! Rebeca and her family take wonderful care of my dog. They’ve gotten to know her and picked up on some emotional differences this visit. Having people who know and love her is amazing when I need to leave. I will book with them again and again!”
“Michael was very communicative the whole time, and our Caju had a great time at his house! He was well taken care of and came back happy and tired :) I’ll definitely do it again when needed!”
“Olympia had a great time as always! We really appreciate their attention to her allergies - when we told the she needed filtered water they said no problem and offered to take the shared water up, which was really considerate.”
“Lori is amazing. We are so happy to have found her. She always takes amazing care of our dog who has a lot of anxiety. She is so responsive, caring, and follows all of our special instructions.”
“Rita did a great job of figuring out how Olaf would fit in with her dogs and what motivates him. He had a great stay and we'll definitely use Rita again if she's available.”
“Lindsay was amazing. Our dog had a great time with Lindsay, her family and her dog Tilly, who happened to match our dog's size and energy level perfectly. Lindsay sent us multiple photos during our dog's stay. We could not recommend her more highly!”
“Yenny and her family where extremely amazing 🥰 my Winnie was happy being around them for being her first time spending the night out of her comfort 🩷🫶🏼 she did well I will definitely book again in near future with yenny. Definitely recommend her 💯”
“We had a wonderful experience with Ana and would absolutely book with her again! She was fantastic with communication, sending daily updates and pictures that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog happened to be going through one of her picky eating phases during our trip, and she went above and beyond to help. She tried different bowls, chopped up the turkey we had left as a topper and mixed it into her food, and was so patient and creative in trying to get her to eat. It was clear she genuinely cared about our dog’s well-being. She also took her on multiple walks each day and made sure she got plenty of attention and exercise. On top of that, she was incredibly accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up schedule, which made the entire experience stress-free. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our dog and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!”
“Another amazing stay! They took such great care of Oakley. We had such peace of mind while we were away and really appreciated the check ins and all the pictures that were sent our way. Can’t recommend them enough and am happy to have found a trusted sitter for our pup.”
“Jing was the best!! So caring, kind and attentive! I know my dog was super comfortable with her and her whole family. She really did such a great job caring for him. We definitely will be hiring Jing again! Thank you so much!”
“Freddi and Brian were great with our dog Coco! They sent regular updates and pictures, and ensured a comfortable, cozy stay. We'd be happy to have Coco stay with them again.”
“David was wonderful! Communicative, patient, kind. It was only for about 9 hours, but he went above and beyond to watch and care for our dog. He shared several pictures, and gave proactive updates, and was quick to answer during and leading up to our dog's stay. I would whole-heartedly recommend David.”
“Gienna was great with our dog Murphy. She had excellent communication (lots of notes and photos) during his stay with her and she clearly has a lot of valuable experience taking care of dogs and making sure they adjust into the new space.”
“Jennifer was amazing watching our puppy, Loki! She even provided pet taxi for pick up and drop off! She kept us updated throughout his weekend stay with her the entire time and he loved playing with her 2 pups! Thank you so much!”
“Our minidoodle Sam had a great stay with Charlotte and Jordan, and their dog Kyber. Two things we especially like: They generally just take one dog at a time (more attention, and Sam loves attention!), and they live near some great walking trails. Very nice people.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hathorne
Hitchcock loved her stay with michelle! She was flexible and very understanding with everything that came with watching a huge pup. we loved getting the video update and seeing how our girl was having fun playing with the other dogs. Hitchcock came back to us healthy and happy and is excited for her next stay!
Amanda was fantastic. Had a short notice need for our 9 month old golden and Amanda was fast to respond and able to help. She provided lot of photos. And I think our pup has a new best friend with her young son. Would 100% recommend and wouldn't think twice about leaving our pup with her again.
My dog Dante had a wonderful stay with Quiana! He was so relaxed and happy and got along very well with her dog Milo! I also received daily updates with beautiful pictures! I would recommend Quiana to anyone and am looking forward to booking her again in the future!
Dominique and her family were very accommodating. I was able to bring Hank (my dog) over to meet them to be sure it would be a good fit. She has a great yard! Her kids were so sweet and ready to help. They have a little dog Pumpkin who was very friendly and adorable. I don't think Pumpkin really enjoyed Hanks constant high energy, but she tolerated him. Dominique was a great communicator and sent me daily updates and pictures daily, which was so nice. If we get the chance to go on vacation again, I would definitely use her again. Hank seemed very happy and well cared for the whole time! Thanks Dominique
Samantha was unbelievably helpful, thoughtful and communicative taking care of our little guy Benny during our wedding weekend up on the North Shore. She absolutely went above and beyond for us during a special, and specially chaotic, weekend - allowing us to make memories with him on our special day while knowing he was well taken care of through the night. We couldn't have pulled it all off without her!
Cynthia was awesome with my doggy. She was caring and she kept me updated while we were away with photos and videos and messages. Her home looked lovely and clean. And her dog was friendly and a great playmate for my dog. He seems to have a great time and was calm and relaxed when I got him. I’d definitely book with Cynthia again! Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Hathorne 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 Hathorne.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Hathorne 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.
