“Kira and her husband were super nice and thoughtful with our dogs. They took very good care of them and made sure they had fun. Kira sent me pictures during the time my dogs were with her. I really appreciate her help and look forward to leaving my dogs with her next time I need to leave town.”

“Melissa did a great job taking care of yummy! We had a two-week extended stay. She shared photo updates regularly and flags issues proactively. Would recommend to anyone.”

“As I was setting up the booking, Jacqueline gave me great confidence in her ability to take care of my doggos through her messages. During drop off, Jacqueline and her daughter were very thorough and very professional. During my dogs stay, I would text her to see how were things going and she would reply quickly with texts and pictures.”

“Bridget was fabulous. Blue had some digestive issues. We communicated with Bridget ahead of time and she was extremely supportive and helpful. She administered new food and medicine while Blue was there. She is an absolute pro and awesome to work with!”

“Briana took amazing care of our pup Chase for nine days in June 2021 and we couldn't be more grateful! She is an all-around dog expert, and the friendliest person you'll meet. Briana took the time to send us daily updates, along with pictures and videos, which eased our anxiety (it's our first time away from our first dog) and proved that we chose the right person for the job. FIVE STARS all the way !!!”

“Julie was really great with our anxious dog who really does not warm up to strangers. She understood that our dog needed space and time. By the end of the 24hour stay she and our dog had bonded which speaks volumes regarding Julie’s demeanor and ability to read a dog. Additionally, Julie is extremely responsive. Due to weather we needed to adjust our stay and she quickly responded to my messages and helped work through how to navigate the Rover site ? We are looking forward to having our dog stay with Julie again soon.”

“Leaving our dog with Liliya was easy and comfortable. She communicated well and sent us photos throughout each day. Most importantly our dog seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up! We will definitely be back next time we need a dog sitter in her area!”

“Erin was fantastic! My labradoodle stayed for a few days and got to go on walks with her doggies and play in her yard! I appreciate that she sent me pictures and that my pup had a comfortable and loving place to stay! :)”


“Elaine is a wonderful, loving person. As soon as we met I knew she would care for Lucy the way we do. Lucy spent the night and was with Elaine's dog. They seemed to have a good time together. I got pictures and updates on my pup often from Elaine. When Lucy got home she was exhausted, but clearly happy. I will contact Elaine again through Rover.com the next time we have a need for Lucy to hang with another family for a while. THANK YOU ELAINE!!!”


“Whitney was so understanding and flexible when a large snowstorm impacted travel extending my pet’s stay. Her wonderful care for my pup means so much and let me concentrate on getting home safely. Thank you!”

“Mliss was amazing! The pre-stay meeting went great. Throughout the stay, Mliss sent many updates and pictures. Looks like Bella had a great time. Would highly recommend.”

“I had such a wonderful experience with Sarah and her family watching my dog while I was traveling out of the country. They were caring, communicative, and made me feel completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. I appreciated the updates and could tell she was well loved and cared for. Would absolutely book with them again!”

“I couldn’t have imagined a better first experience with in-house boarding. They were incredibly understanding of my dog’s needs, and Masha loved them from the very first meeting! They even went the extra mile to ensure she was eating well and gave her treats, which I truly appreciated. I would recommend them hands down to anyone—it was such a relief to know she was in such great hands.”

“My pups love her and never fight to go home when I bring them to Auntie Nancy's home. She loves them like her own. Even when I have a complicated meal program with additives, Nancy's doesn't mind at all.”

“I left my Pug with Gabrielle on a Sunday to Tuesday. Gabrielle was very conscientious, answered all questions, listened well and was very nice to both Wilbur and me. He obviously has a nice way with dogs and sent photos and video of Wilbur at random times. Wilbur was well taken care of, walked dependably, and was happy with Gabrielle and co. I highly recommend Gabrielle and look forward to seeing him again!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Emily! She was incredibly accommodating for a last minute request and is an absolute sweetheart. I will definitely be using Emily in the future and recommend you do too- your pets will be in the best hands :)”

“Our pup has had several overnight stays including last one for 10 days. He is very happy to be there! (Also, Alex was very accommodating with a schedule change which was awesome!)”


“Kyla was a superb sitter for our young pup. We were so anxious over having to leave him with someone as he has had a tough time already in life with being born in a street in Texas, then having to stay in a shelter in a pen for almost three months to then being brought to Tennessee to a shelter where he was adopted by us. Then he had to take a long Trek to Connecticut in a semi trailer with 150 other dogs crated the whole trip where we picked him up. He is very anxious and not use to other people or animals. I must say Kyla was super great with Franklin. She did everything we had asked even down to the insane feeding ways we have. We left a long list with Kyla as if we were leaving a human child and she fulfilled each and every one and then some. She is a very caring, kind and loving animal sitter. Her house is super clean and a great environment for any pet. Her children are just the cutest and very helpful with the animals. They love animals and are very gentle with them which was so cute to see. Kyla was super great about sending daily pictures and updates to us about Franklin. She keeps things very professional and I will certainly recommend her to anyone who wants a home away from home for there pet while they vacation or work. We will definitely use her pet boarding services again.”

Jackie was wonderful! Our little guy was very well taken care of by her and her family. She sent us updates every day. I knew he had a great time at her place because after I picked him up he wants not angry at me- like he has been when I have left him with other people before. I would 100% recommend Jackie.

Abby is a 10 yr. old Havanese - and the most universally beloved member of our family. Thus, our prime concern while way from home was Abby's well being. Christine alleviated those concerns completely. Christine is professional in planning for the care of your dog. She checks for compatibility with her dog, Genji, and her children before she agrees to board your dog. Christine is a great communicator before and during the boarding period. Her daily pictures and short videos of Abby sent to us while we were away were a delight. Our extended family could see Abby thriving and visibly enjoying her stay with Christine. (We were not sure Abby would want to leave Christine to return to our home as Abby looked so happy and occupied.) Christine was a "real find."

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hopkinton on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,182 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hopkinton. 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 Hopkinton 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 Hopkinton 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 Hopkinton 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 Hopkinton.
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 Hopkinton 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.
