“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 💯”
“Our yellow lab seemed to enjoy the company and care at Lindsay's house. He moved right in to share her dog's bed and apparently made himself right at home. The photos that Lindsay sent us showed him relaxing during his "camp" weekend at her house. This was our first time using Lindsay's services and it was a great success!”
“Xiaxia and her family took great care of Luna. Xiaxia sent pictures and updates every day. Luna was happy playing in the field near their home. We will definitely ask her to dog sit next time we are out of town.”
“Lauren is a great sitter and Woody loved her! She was very playful and loving with Woody, I’m sure he had so much fun with her and Remy! Would definitely recommend her to sit your pet. I appreciate for all the help! Thank you!”
“Freddi and her boyfriend are such caring dog sitters. It’s obvious that they loves the dogs a lot, often taking them on long walks to tire them out and having them play. They are very attentive and patient, often updating me about the dogs and even offering suggestions on changing their food intake after doing some research. Our dogs were very happy and healthy when we went to pick them up, and even kind of sad to leave. It’s clear that they had a great time at Freddi’s by their smiles and tail wags. I would highly recommend this family if you’re going away for vacation—they are patient, kind, and very caring! 10/10 experience.”
“Lauren provided wonderful, enthusiastic sitting services for our two dogs. She and her hubby have a wonderful fun dog of their own who added another dimension of fun to the stay, along with plenty of ball play. Lauren was kind, communicative, sent photos, was accommodating of our pug's heat sensitivities. It was nice to see quite spacious outdoor areas with both sun and shade options for play and outings. Thank you Lauren!”
“While my family and I were on vacation, Rita did an excellent job taking care of Mango. She kept me updated daily with pictures and updates on his well-being. What I appreciated the most was the fact that Rita's home has a spacious fenced yard where Mango could get ample exercise. I will undoubtedly utilize Rita's services again and am grateful for discovering her on Rover. I highly suggest using Rita if you require a dog sitter.”
“Mia had the best stay! I got the most adorable photos and videos, as well as updates throughout the weekend, and it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable she was. Mia absolutely loved playing with her puppy, Lola, and the videos of them together were the cutest. It was clear that Mia was treated like part of the family and got so much attention and affection. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I’m so lucky to have found Nikki and would absolutely recommend her!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. Dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, exc. I am a caring and loving mom my 7 year old son. I had a dog of my own for 10 years (he recently passed) so I know the amount of attention they need. I will care for your pet as if it's my own. If anyone is interested to have their animals watched on weekends while they are away or during weekdays while at work or on vacation. I am around to keep your loved one company. I have a fenced in yard to let them out as much as they need. I have a fenced in yard for your pet to play in nice weather and home to spend time with your loved one. I am able to watch on weekdays and weekends. I will monitor, feed, play, walk with your pet and attend to as needed. They will be on great hands. I do have a 9 year old dog who sleeps all day. He is vaccinated and very friendly.
“Ana Maria was great with my puppy. She was very caring and understanding of my puppy separation anxiety, and also she was flexible with my last minute schedule change. She was truly a blessing during our trip to MA and I am looking forward to come back to MA to visit my daughter and booking with Ana Maria again. 😊”
“Annie and Rosie had a great stay with Salish. They came home happy and I could tell they were loved just as they would have been at home. I am so happy Salish took care of them, made my week away so much more enjoyable.”
“Andre was great with Luna ! Kept great contact with videos. She was walked for hours a day. When I picked her up she ate and crashed out. She was clearly tired. I will definitely use Andre again!!!🐆”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for many years and have had three Shar Pei of my own. Shar Pei can be a challenging breed, and all three of mine experienced health issues over the years, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs who need a little extra patience and attention, including administering medications. I no longer have a dog in my home and have recently been dog sitting for friends and family. I’ve enjoyed it so much that I decided it was time to expand! I truly enjoy having dogs around, taking them for walks and giving them plenty of attention. Your dog will be treated like part of my family, not a guest. I work outside of the home during the week, but I have flexibility in my schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention, exercise and companionship they need. I enjoy walking and being outdoors, so daily walks are something I genuinely look forward to. When I’m home, your dog will be right there with me as part of the family. I have a fully fenced-in yard where your dog can safely spend time outside, and there are currently no other pets living in my home. This allows me to give your dog lots of individual attention and makes my home a comfortable option for dogs who may prefer not to be around other animals. I’m experienced with administering medications and caring for dogs with health issues and special needs. I’ll also follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, sleeping and medication routine as closely as possible. Above all, I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable and at home while you’re away.
“Elliot and Jo are fantastic with Ghira. We always have such peace of mind whenever we leave her with them as they have a lot of experience with dogs (and ours has some special needs). From the photos we get, it feels like Ghira is also on her own vacation and loves them”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our dog for a night with Fae & Joe! Easy and fast communication. Drop off and intro were very easy, our dog came home looking great. We got regular updates for the duration of the stay. It was lovely to see our dog look relaxed and have access to the couch and the house!”
“Mike and his family did a wonderful job taking care of our Bernese Mountain Dog. They send lots of photos and really treat her like one of the family, she has the best time there and I know she is being well cared for, highly recommend.”
“Lorraine was the best! Have left our Cooper with other doggie daycares but have never felt so strongly that he was in the best possible place. He surely was treated like a member of her family! Daily pictures and videos gave us the reassurance that we could relax celebrating our “50 th” Anniversary in Aruba!! Highly recommend Lorraine and her beautiful family!❤️❤️”
“Luke is amazing! This was our third time leaving our pup Peanut with Luke and Peanut had a great time. Luke took Peanut on a winter hike and cared for him so well. We are grateful that Luke was available given how much our pup loves staying at Luke’s. Our pup literally ran to Luke when we dropped him off :) thanks again Luke for taking such good care of Peanut and for sending regular updates :)”
“Aurora and her husband took great care of my pup Miley. They send me so many updates throughout the day of her stay. Miley and Maddie played so much that she came home tired and happy. I’m looking forward to Miley’s next vacation at there place. Thanks so much.”

I wish I could give Yenny and her family more than 5 stars. Our dog, Tessa was treated like part of their family and was so well loved I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home with us. 😂 I was updated every day and received pictures and videos also. I recommend them 150%! Tessa is counting the days until she can go visit again!
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!
As always, working with Kayla was seamless and an absolute pleasure! We love to travel but hate leaving our pup, so it is wonderful to know that he is happy and well cared for while we are away. He gets walks, treats, and lots of snuggle time, and loves playing with her sweet dog. Thanks so much, Kayla!
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.
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 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.
