“Winn took great care of our dog Mango on our trip to Boston! He sent photos and kept us updated throughout the weekend. He even brought Mango out to cheer as I ran past during the marathon - it was so nice to see her along the course! Highly recommend!”


“We had a last minute trip during a holiday weekend and reached out to Hunter who quickly agreed to take care of our 15 year old toy poodle. She was quick to respond and provided great communication during the entire care. Our dog also got along great with her dogs. Would use her again!”

“Anneta took great care of my dog Luna, followed all my care instructions, and sent adorable pictures throughout the stay. Very professional and caring—will absolutely use her services again!”

“Carlos and Nina were so wonderful with our Oscar. We were away for 2 weeks and they were extremely accommodating and very loving to our little guy. We received regular updates and pictures and knew Oscar was safe and happy with them. Will definitely rebook!”

“Loveliest couple and some real dog pros. They were so good with my pup and shared tons of photos while we were away. We absolutely use them again and again.”

“Greta is an amazing dog sitter! She provided lots of updates every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog looked incredibly happy and well cared for throughout the stay. She even gave my dog a bath, which was such a thoughtful offer. Juniper is also absolutely adorable, and it was wonderful that my dog had such a sweet companion to play with. I would highly recommend Greta to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter!”

“Casey is a warm, conscientious, dependable dog sitter. Our beagles loved staying with her for a week. She kept us updated on the pups through photos and was fast in responding to our questions. She even dropped the dogs off at our home! We will definitely book her again. Thank you so much Casey!”
“This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous but Ilya was great with my dog Stella and sent regular updates during my trip out of town. In the pictures she looked like she was having a great time and got to go on lots of walks! Stella also has some separation anxiety but settled in nicely with lots of pets and playtime.”

“Dusty had a great time with Julie, and she was terrific. Warm and caring, really great communication throughout Dusty’s stay, which is always much appreciated. Flexible and understanding on a traffic delay I had coming to get her. Would definitely have Dusty stay again and highly recommend to anyone else looking for quality care for your pup!”

Thank you so much, Natasha! ❤️”

Five stars isn't enough for Niusha! I recently boarded my puppy, Luna, with her and couldn't be more grateful for the incredible care she provided. From the very beginning, Niusha was highly responsive and deeply invested in understanding Luna’s routine and needs. She took the extra time to do a meet and greet beforehand, which immediately put my mind at ease. During the stay, Niusha and her roommate Olly kept Luna active and happy, even taking her to a nearby park to play with other dogs, and sent me constant updates with lots of pictures and videos. What truly sets Niusha apart is how far she goes above and beyond. When Luna had something in her eye, Niusha provided gentle care and even took her to the vet just to be entirely sure she was okay. Knowing Luna was in such loving, attentive, and capable hands gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I will absolutely reach out to Niusha for any future pet care needs, and I couldn't recommend her more highly to anyone looking for top-tier care for their pup!

Elizabeth was amazing! I always appreciate when someone is willing to do a meet and greet prior to staying! She was more than happy too! I also unfortunately had a terrible travel day on my way home and ended up being delayed 6 hours, and she was very responsive and accommodating which I couldn’t have been more grateful for! She sent me photos and updates everyday! Would love to book her again in the future!

I was very nervous about leaving Pippa with someone other than a family member for the first time, but I’m so happy we connected with Sadie. Pippa clearly had such a wonderful experience with her. Sadie kept me updated throughout my time away with messages and pictures, and it was obvious that Pippa was so well cared for and having a relaxing time. I will certainly trust Sadie with Pippa anytime I’m away and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog!

Mehlani was amazing!! We’ve never left our dog with a sitter before, however we felt so comfortable leaving her with Mehlani, and knew she was in great care during our vacation. She sent us pictures every day and provided us with lots of updates. Thank you Mehlani! We will definitely rebook with you.
I always worry when Wesley is with a new sitter and this was going to be for over a week. I saw all of the positive reviews for Michael and I can attest that they are 100% spot on. Michael shared so many great photos of Wesley during his stay running and playing with the other dogs and having a fantastic time. You can see the exuberance in his face in half the photos. He was having so much fun that I was actually a little worried that he wouldn't want to come home! I whole heartedly recommend Michael and his concierge door-to-door service and will absolutely use him again.

Nalix was wonderful with my two-and-a-half-year-old pup, Sati. Nalix has so much experience with dogs of all sorts, clearly loves them, and is very attentive to each one, which made me feel immediately at ease leaving Sati with her this first time. I know I'll be leaving Sati with her in the future. I also appreciated that Nalix takes the dogs to different dog parks, so they get variety. I loved getting pictures of Sati romping with other dogs there, and also snuggling back inside.

We had never use Rover before but had to travel internationally for 12 days and none of our family or friends could take our 14 week old puppy, Pepper. We found Savar and he offered to meet up before the handoff to meet us and our puppy. He asked all the right questions about our training. Savar was happy to help with some of the training and behavioral things we were working on as well! We had an easy drop off and got frequent pictures, videos, and texts throughout Pepper’s stay. When we picked him up, Pepper was a very happy and well cared for dog. We would not hesitate to rebook Savar and would recommend him to other first time or repeat Rover users!

ARIANNA ROCKS!!!! Not only did she renewed my faith in Rover again after having two bad experiences with sitters who confirmed and then ghosted me, but the way she and her family cared for my Pepper was PRICELESS!!! Pepper IMMEDIATELY gravitated to her and the family! THANK YOU for making Pepper feel like family! She even misses her son, who cried as Pepper left which made me get emotional! Don’t worry, Pepper will be back VERY SOON!! 5 STARS AND A MILLION THUMBS UP!!!

Phillipa is superb. She was very understanding and accommodating in dealing with my dog Leo's separation anxiety. Leo obviously adores her, and from the photos she sent, was very comfortable in her lovely home. He loves walking on the Commonwealth Mall and got a lot of exercise doing that while I was away. Consider yourself lucky if she has an opening when you need to go away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Jamaica Plain on Rover is $55.26 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,197 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Jamaica Plain. About 90% of Jamaica Plain 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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
