Tae did a WONDERFUL job caring for our son. She sent me lots of photos and updates during his stay, which I absolutely loved! She went above and beyond-giving him multiple walks, playtime at the park, and lots of snuggles and blanket tucks. Thank you Tae!

I contacted Jing last-minute for an overnight stay. She was super-responsive, and during the stay she sent me photos and updates. My dog Bobo seemed happy and got plenty of time out in the yard with her pooches. I would definitely send him there again if she is available!

Kaelyn was able to book my dog stella for boarding on short notice. I also mistakenly entered the wrong start date but she was able to accommodate me a day earlier, which I very much appreciated. My dog seemed to get along well with her adorable little pup. Thank you, Kaelyn

Maria and her boyfriend did a terrific job of taking care of Nellie for the week! This was Nellie's first time with a dog sitter as she is a service dog, and Maria was very accommodating and agreed to meet with us beforehand to learn a little more about Nellie. We got constant photo and video updates, and Maria took great care in making sure our little girl got everything she needed! Nellie also looked very happy when we picked her up, and I can confidently recommend Maria as a fantastic dog sitter!

Lola clearly loved being with them! We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.

Vanessa was great - our first time leaving our 8 year old terrier mix with her and we felt totally comfortable and at peace the whole time. From meeting Vanessa you can tell she’s extremely processional, knowledgeable, and compassionate; asking all the right questions to ensure the best stay for your pet and the easiest time away for you. She sent plenty of pictures and provided updates over the course of her stay. Our dog even shamelessly got right into bed and snuggled with Vanessa all night 😂 We will definitely reach out to Vanessa again!

We feel so much at ease when we leave our dog with Oscar and Gaelle. They always send us cutest video updates. We tried 3 other sitters on Rover when Oscar was not available , each time our dog had diarrhea after we picked her up (either stress related or elsa ate something she shouldn’t eat) . Never had a problem when Elsa stayed with Oscar. Looked always happy and healthy.

Shuhua/Cindy is an absolute gem and an absolute dream to work with! From start to finish, she went above and beyond in every possible way. She's incredibly kind, thoughtful, accommodating, punctual, and it's so obvious that she truly loves and cares for animals. I actually reached out to her pretty last minute, and despite the short notice, she responded so quickly and made the entire booking process incredibly easy. From that very first message, I knew my furbabies were going to be in great hands. This was my very first time ever boarding my pets, so naturally I was a nervous wreck. Cindy completely put my mind at ease and exceeded every expectation I had. Exchanging information with her was effortless—she was always quick to respond, super easy to communicate with, and, as a bonus, just genuinely fun to chat with, even about non-pet things! What really blew me away was the full-service experience. She came all the way to my home to pick up my babies and then brought them safely back afterward. That level of care and convenience made the whole process unbelievably easy, and it really showed how dedicated she is to both her clients and their pets. I honestly don't think my first boarding experience could have been any better. If this mama ever needs a little break from her furbabies again, there won't even be a second thought—I'll be reaching out to Cindy first! I can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you, Cindy, for treating my babies like your own and making what could have been a stressful experience such an amazing one. ❤️

Rida was an amazing sitter. She and her partner took incredible care of my cat while I was away for 2.5 weeks. Rida was always quick to respond, and the daily updates/photos gave me so much peace of mind. My cat is usually a bit shy, but it was obvious how comfortable he became with them. Next time I need a sitter, they’ll be the first people I reach out to.

Our 9 year old pit bull mix lived with Anneta for 10 days while we were away on vacation. Anneta sent us photos and videos everyday and did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. I was a little nervous because our dog can be aggressive towards other dogs and is also quite strong. Anneta handled her with ease and our dog loved Anneta. Anneta was very responsive, reliable and loving. I would not hesitate to hire Anneta again.

FAQs for Boarding - Jamaica Plain

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Jamaica Plain on Rover is $53.5 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 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 4,283 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Jamaica Plain. About 91% 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.
