“Hyesoo and her family were again amazing! Extremely responsive and thorough. We are always able to enjoy ourselves without worry while she is watching over our pup. Cannot brag about her enough!!”
“Tyler is AWESOME! He is prompt with messaging and sending photos. Not only did he provide some extra TLC to Vivian (helping her with stairs, etc.), Tyler was very accommodating of our travel schedule. Vivian also made some new friends during her stay! Highly recommend his friendly and thoughtful services.”
“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!”
“Jing has watchedy dog multiple times in the past few months. My dog absolutely loves staying with her. She gets tons of exercise, plenty of time outdoors, and gets along great with Jing's dogs. Jing has also been especially helpful when I was dealing with travel delays by being both flexible and assuring me my dog was taken care of”
“Lyn was amazing with our Dog. She kept me upto date and sent photos and videos during the stay. I would definitely use Lyn again and would recommend her to others.”
“Sarah and family (humans and dogs) made my pup feel like family! He got to play and cuddle all day long and we got cute pictures throughout the weekend. They were patient with his puppy behavior and their love for dogs is so special! We will happily leave our pup in their care again!”
“Another weekend boarding experience with Casey that we could not be happier about! Our dogs now RUN UP the stairs to Casey's place in excitement and we felt so at ease leaving them. We had very spotty service during the weekend at where we were, but we knew that our dogs were being cared for the best they could be (spoiled, really!) and gave us zero worries. Thank you, thank you, Casey.”
“Shuping is one of the best “nanas” Cookie has ever had, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found her through Rover. From the moment Cookie stayed with her, it was clear how much warmth, kindness, and genuine love she gives to the pets in her care. She treated Cookie as if she were her own, and that gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. One of our favorite things was receiving her sweet updates. She would send us adorable photos and videos and share little stories about Cookie’s day. The way she affectionately referred to Cookie as a “little rascal” always made us smile and showed just how much she cared for her. As pet parents, being away from your beloved pet can be difficult. Finding someone who loves, cares for, and cherishes your pet almost as much as you do is truly a blessing. That’s exactly what we found in Shuping. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive caregiver for their pet. She is warm, kind, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful. We would happily trust Cookie with her again anytime.”
“Wonderful experience. Sarah took in our two pups on a last minute booking for the weekend, made sure she had all the details about their care, and sent pictures of how well they were doing. We were confident they were in good hands.”
“Had a great experience boarding my Golden Retriever with Christina! From the initial meet & greet I could tell Christina was competent, professional, and caring. Leading up to and throughout the boarding she was communicative and sent multiple pictures daily, so I know my dog had a great time. Drop-off and pick-ups were easy. Overall really pleased with the boarding service and will be boarding with Christina again soon!”
“Cody was a fantastic sitter for our pup while we were away for a long weekend. She provided great daily updates and was incredibly kind, flexible, and communicative when our pup experienced some separation + thunderstorm anxiety during his visit and when we experienced flight delays on our return trip home. We will definitely re-book with Cody in the future!”
“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”
“Barb is fantastic! She went above and beyond for our Lizzie girl. She is dependable, warm and welcoming! You will never have to worry when your furry companion is in her hands!”
“Paula was wonderful about my very high energy pup Olive. It was great getting photos of Olive swimming, running around with other dogs, and really living it up while staying with Paula. We can tell she LOVED her stay and felt very comfortable there. Thanks, Paula! Hope Olive can come stay again one day.”
“Lauren did an amazing job caring for my pup, Poppy! Lauren was caring, thoughtful, and responsive throughout the entire process. Poppy felt right at home! Lauren is a great petsitter and provides a really safe, fun, and relaxing home away from home for each pet. Poppy and I are looking forward to her next stay with Lauren!”
“Rachel was amazing! She made us and Joey feel comfortable. She was super communicative and let us know how he was doing. We would book Rachel over and over.”
“Elizabeth and Rodrigo took amazing care of our dog while we were away for 6 days. He’s getting older and can be a little anxious, but he was totally comfortable in their home. They sent us tons of photos too, which we loved since we missed him. I’d absolutely recommend them as dog sitters.”
“Maria took great care of our dog Ted while we explored Boston. She sent us updates and he was very happy when we picked him up. Highly recommend.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Jamaica Plain is $63
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jamaica Plain
We left our dog, Elsa, with Shuhua for almost two weeks, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Shuhua was caring, communicative, and very flexible, which made everything so much easier. She sent us regular photo updates throughout Elsa’s stay, giving us great peace of mind. It was clear that Elsa was well cared for, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. We would absolutely leave Elsa with Shuhua again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
I had a great experience with Augustin, and I would happily book with him again. He was professional, responsive, and genuinely caring. Gogol had a wonderful time in his care, and it gave me great peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands while I was traveling overseas. Throughout the stay, he kept me updated and treated Gogol as if he were his own. When I picked Gogol up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for—a true sign of a great sitter. I also appreciated his reliability, thoughtfulness, and genuine love for dogs. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Gogol!
Jamie and her family took amazing care of our Ziggy. I knew as soon as we walked into her house during the meet and greet that Ziggy felt comfortable and enjoyed visiting with the other dogs and exploring freely. While we were away, Jamie sent pics and videos and I could see Ziggy was happy and staying busy. The next time she saw Jamie she was super excited, proof that she had a strong connection and enjoyed her visit. I’ll use Jamie again!
Isabella took wonderful care of Stella for almost two weeks, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. As a newer rescue (she's a German Shepherd/Pit mix, still settling into her routines), I was nervous about leaving her for that long, but she put me completely at ease. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant a lot. When I picked Stella up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for — tired in the best way, like she'd had two great weeks of exercise and attention. I'd trust Isabella with Stella again without hesitation, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a boarder who genuinely loves dogs.
The boarding with Poulomi for our Red Golden Leo was as always fabulos! Poukomi was sending many pictures twice a day with updates. We could see our dog smiling and being happy - such a nice connection. As in the previous times - Leo got so attached to her that he almost did not want to go home with me :). We will board with Poulomi also in the future.

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.
