“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!”
“David took great care of our senior dog while we were away for four days. He went above and beyond to accommodate her and her somewhat difficult needs given her age. We will absolutely use him again!”
“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.”
“Caty and her family took such good care of our dog. She sent us pictures and updates. I made a mistake with our booking, but Caty was very understanding and accommodating. We will book with her again.”
“Belinda was wonderful with our furbaby and sent us an update each day. She was very accessible by text and easy to communicate with. Our dog got along well with her dog, Sloane, who is a sweetie. Also, she has the perfect fenced in yard for the dogs to play! We will certainly work with Belinda again!”
“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!”
“Michael and his family were great!! Our Golden Jaxson came home super happy!! He sent multiple update pics and was very responsive!! Felt so at ease Knowing Michael was caring for Jaxson! 🐾”
“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!”
“Jennifer was a wonderful care taker for our dog. She was patient and kind. Kept us updated on a longer stay. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you.”
“In the past, I have always hesitated to travel anywhere because I didn't want to put Connor in a kennel while we were gone. I'm so happy I found Rover.com! Connor stayed with Bob and his wife, Kathy. She loved hanging out with them and playing with their cute little dog, Milo. Bob sent me pictures of Connor and her activities while we were gone which was very reassuring. Bob and Kathy are awesome and I see more travel in my future! Thanks for the great care and love you gave Connor.”
“Freddi took outstanding care of Penny!!! She has an idyllic setup for hosting and provided Penny a cozy and comfortable stay while we were out of town. We loved the photos Freddi sent every day - Penny was clearly right at home! Would definitely book again.”
“Michelle took care of my dogs over Easter weekend while we were traveling out of state. We have a 95 pound 9 month old puppy (who definitely still has some puppy behaviors) and an adult 75 pound mixed breed who is sometimes particular with which dogs he wants to play with. Both my dogs did great at Michelle's house and she sent pictures and gave updates daily which was greatly appreciated! My dogs were happy when I picked them up and spent the whole day sleeping when we got home. We're already planning their next stay with Michelle and her family when we go away in a few months!”
“So thankful to Donna and John for taking such excellent care of our dog while we were away. It can be very challenging to find boarding suitable for her due to her being dog-aggressive, but Donna and John willingly accepted her as their only client for the weekend and made us feel so comfortable knowing she was going to be in such good hands!”
“We left our pup Colby with Faith and she was just awesome. We had some logistical issues on our end around drop off time and she was so nice and worked with us to make it work. Faith seemed to love our pup as much as we do-which is something you can only hope for in a pet sitter!! Faith was so communicative and sent pics every day. I would highly recommend Faith to anyone thinking about finding a pet sitter!! Thanks Faith-Colby had a great time!!!”
“Elliot and Jo were wonderful caregivers for Charlie while we were visiting Boston. Charlie came home relaxed and happy. Elliot took great pictures of Charlie on their outings. I would recommend Elliot and will use him again when we are in the Boston area.”
“Krystyna & Sara are AWESOME!! If you have a dog that needs to board somewhere, you don't have to second guess leaving it with these two great hosts!! My pup was EXHAUSTED after picking him up, the house dog Bernie, did a great job matching Whiskey's energy and wore him out. He's still catching up on his sleep the next day! LOL. We even found out that he's good with cats! I will be boarding my dog there again next month. A++++++. experience.”
“Over the years, I've repeatedly turned to Daisy for help with Offer, my cherished dog. Each time, Daisy's care has been consistently exceptional. Her genuine love for animals and dedication to their well-being is truly remarkable. I highly recommend her as a trusted and compassionate pet caregiver.”

There are 3,515 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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.
