“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 💯”
“Lindsay was great with Luna. She was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up and kept in touch during our vacation with updates and pictures of Luna. I know that Luna was happy and well-cared for, and she enjoyed playing with Lindsay's dog. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was lovely! Very caring and sent us lovely photos and reassurance that Goose was being extremely well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again. Thank you Jennifer!”
“Thank you, Natasha & Jonathan!!! Willow had the best time and made many new friends. We were so nervous leaving him with anyone other than family for 5 days but you gave us peace of mind with constant communication and he clearly had a great time. He will be back!”
“Jing made our vacation so relaxing, by caring so well for Lucy, our 3 year old Havanese. She was responsive and had great communication with us including photos and updates on Lucy during her stay. It was great to hear and see that Lucy was comfortable and enjoying herself with Jing as well as other dogs. We could not be any happier with our first Rover experience. Thank you Jing! We will definitely ask for your help again. K, D. and Lucy🐶”
“Julia is fantastic with my dog! We are a multiple repeat customer, he always has the best time staying with her and is excited to get inside when I bring him for a stay. We will continue to use Julia again!!”
“We used Sam to board our dog Mia for the first time recently, and she was absolutely amazing! We just adopted Mia two months ago (she’s a rescue from the south), so we were super nervous about leaving her for a week. At the dog hotel we used to use for our other pup, they literally charged us $4 per photo and we constantly had to beg them for updates. Sam was the exact opposite. Right from the meet-and-greet, she was so attentive and asked tons of questions to make sure she knew exactly how to give Mia the best care. While we were gone, she sent so many updates and pictures without us even having to ask, which gave us total peace of mind. She even handled Mia's allergy medication which was another concern of ours. Plus, her dog Poppy is the absolute cutest and friendliest pup ever! If want someone who will actually give you pup personal, hands-on love and attention, you need to book Sam.”
“Michelle and her family was above and beyond, Hamilton is typically crazy and he slept all day after playing so much with the other dogs. He was even sad to come home which means he obviously loved the attention and time over there. 6/5 stars will definitely use again!!”
“Monica took care of my little (rescue) rat terrier overnight. She did an excellent job! My dog is anxious and Monica was very attentive to her needs. She sent pictures and kept me informed about my dog's experience throughout the stay. I am looking forward to my next booking with Monica!”
“I think my dog likes Liz more than me! He was happy to see me again and to come home, but if he could have, he would have moved her and her place in next door to us. Liz is gentle, picks up on important cues from the dogs, is thorough and just great. There was a complication in our premade arrangements with another sitter the night before we were scheduled to fly out of the country that could have ruined our 2 week honeymoon in Japan. Liz really stepped up for Rover and for us. She’s the very best.”
“Carol and her family are lovely! They took such great care of Stevie. I got a lot of pictures, great communication, updates and was relieved that Stevie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Carol.”
“We have booked Chanel twice to take care of our furry baby Leo . Leo has medical issues and Chanel not only kept us up to date, but also went out of her way to make sure Leo was comfortable. We got updates through out the day with pictures. Highly recommended!”
“Fae and Joe hosted our giant dog at their house for almost a month. They took very good care and our dog loves them! We received daily photos and videos with little notes on how it was going. Gave us great peace of mind that our dog was like a member of their family. Our pup came home looking happy and healthy. They even packed a small parting gift. Hard to find such great caretakers! Thank you!”
“Julie took great care of Daisy for us while we went away on a trip over Thanksgiving. She kept us updated daily with photos and how she was doing. We would highly recommend Julie. She cared for Daisy exceptionally well :)”
“Joseph and his family were great sitters. They took care of our boy like he was their own. Their home and outdoor space is safe and spacious for dogs to get plenty of exercise. They were also very accommodating when we had a change in travel plans. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again as a sitter.”
“Aurora was wonderful with our rescue hound for a weekend stay. She continually updated us with pictures and gave us a full report when we picked him up. She obviously loves dogs and we will ask her again.”
“It was our first time boarding on Rover and Vanessa provided a great experience! The process was smooth from booking to pickup, and Vanessa sent plenty of photos and updates so we knew how our pup was doing the entire time. Would recommend!”

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.
