“Rita and her fur-fam gave my boy the most wonderful vacation. She is not paid what she is worth - she knows dogs at an expert level, she loves them, her place is set up perfectly for a dog vacation. I was a nervous new mom to leave my dog, but Rita and her two sweet dogs gave my Donut the best experience, opening his personality in wonderful ways and putting me at peace. Thank you for the tlc and ease, and your time, Rita.”
“Natasha and Jonathan were super communicative and flexible, and my pup seemed like he had a great time staying with them for a few days. I’ll definitely bring him back the next time he needs daycare!”
“As usual, Gienna was wonderful, providing great care for Wagner. We got daily updates with photos and videos. Wagner clearly loves staying with Gienna and really bonded with Maggie. We feel really confident leaving Wagner with Gienna and have already booked more stays!”
“Mercis was fantastic! Very responsible and communicative—she took amazing care of our dog and sent awesome photos! We will definitely be sending our dog to board with her again!”
“Jade was very professional and dependable. I had to change the dates several times, and she took care of the requests immediately. I received pictures of my dog out walking in the woods, and the snow I know she was being well cared for.”
“Laura is excellent with our dog, who always comes home nice and tired. She is prompt and clear communicating about bookings, and very flexible with pick up and drop off times. She is definitely our go-to for dog sitting while we're away.”
“Jennifer is absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my dog, Saint, while my kids and I were away on vacation. We didn’t want to board him for a week, and from the moment I reached out, Jennifer was kind, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. If you’re considering booking with her, don’t hesitate—you and your pet will be in the best hands. We loved our photo and text updates, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing Saint was being cared for like one of the family. Thank you, Jennifer, for taking such amazing care of our boy!”
“Xinyue and Weihai were most accommodating and responsive during a last minute stay. Indy had a great time and I felt most assured of his care while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time leaving our two dogs with Bob and his wife, Cathy. They were great! True animal lovers. We felt very comfortable leaving Abbie & Tucker with them. They sent texts and pictures while we were away. We could tell that they were very well cared for and maybe even a little spoiled :) We will definitely call on them again for our next get-a-way.... Thank you Bob and Cathy!”
“Zwany is amazing as always. She's responsive, caring, and always puts your dog's best interest first. I have booked with her three times now and I wouldn't want to book with anyone else!”
“Sylwia was wonderful, met Alice ahead of time. Alice loved the whole family, River and Deshi included! Had a blast and was reluctant to leave Sylwia. Cannot thank and recommend her enough, definitely will be rebooking!”
“Freddi was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Edie! She sent great photos and updates during her stay. She clearly took great care of Edie, taking her on long walks on the beach every morning and being sensitive to her needs since she can be anxious in new places. We definitely would recommend Freddi and hope to have Edie stay again in the future!”
“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.”
“Absolutely amazing experience! Left my boy for 10 days and he couldn’t have been in a better care! She kept us updated throughout the whole stay and made sure to send daily pictures. It made me feel better knowing that he was getting so much attention and love! Will be using Felicia every time we need help!”
“This was the first time our Husky stayed with Donnie and everything went great. His experience as a dog trainer and the safe environment for the dogs in his care made her very comfortable. We look forward to using his services again!!”
“I’m a person who has a lot of difficulty trusting someone with my dogs- I’m very close with them. I’m positive many of the folks reading this review can say the same. It can be difficult to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and communicative. It can be even more difficult to find someone who is all of those things AND is excellent with dogs. My family has hit the absolute jackpot with Karen’s services. Our older dog has separation anxiety, takes medication, and needs a consistent presence to be successful. We never had to doubt whether Karen could fill these needs for him, and she’s delivered every time. Our younger dog has a lot of energy and has to be let out frequently- Karen’s flexibility and home/yard are perfect to meet those needs. Karen sent us pictures and videos throughout each of my dogs’ stays and provided detailed updates as to how they are doing. We will absolutely be back again, we can’t recommend her enough! 6/5 stars!”
“Kathy was really great with my two dogs who really have never stayed anywhere other than families homes..... She kept in touch regularly and I picked up two very happy dogs! Highly recommend”

There are 3,471 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ipswich. About 90% of Ipswich sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
