“This is our second dog we have boarded with Michael over the years. Our new pup can be anxious in new places and he was attentive and provided one on one attention to help her feel more comfortable. Already have our next boarding date scheduled with him.”

“I would like to take a minute and say thank you to Mellisa and her family. My dog stayed twice with them and both times I was getting back happy and satisfied pet. Melissa and her family provided everything my dog needed: love, care and attention. They took my dog on regular walks, played fetch, and provided a lots of hugs. Every day during my dog's stay, Melissa sent me pictures and short updates on how my dog was doing. My vacation could not be more enjoyable without knowing that my dog in good hands and happy. I am highly recommending Melissa. If you care and love your dog, she is the right dog sitter for you.”

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dog received while I was away! Lingwen was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry friend in their hands. She was so professional, friendly, and attentive, taking the time to learn my dog’s routine and preferences. During the time I was away, Lingwen kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. My dog was happy, healthy, and relaxed when I returned. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their pets!”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have always had a special love for them. I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to birds, guinea pigs, and more—so caring for them has always been a natural part of our lives. I truly love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. In my home, every pet is treated like family, with lots of love, attention, patience, playtime, and cuddles. I also keep owners updated by sending photos throughout the day, so you can see how your dog is doing and feel connected while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, comfortable, and truly at home. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, playtime, attention, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. I make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and exercise they need while staying with me. I provide a safe, clean, loving, and comfortable home where every pet is treated like part of my family. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space to play and explore. I always supervise the pets, provide a calm environment, and follow each pet’s routine and any specific instructions from their owner.

“Pat was a great petsitter for my little dog. She is very friendly and calm. We had a nice and thorough meet and greet at her house and went over my pup’s information. I provided some written info about my dog’s routines with feeding, meds etc that Pat was attentive to. My dog loved staying at Pat’s home, especially lying in the sunshine napping! I knew she was in good hands during the three days away, which allowed me to have a great trip. Pat’s husband was also very nice and my pup loved him too. I got a photo update each morning with a text about what Pat & my dog had been up to together. The one time my dog exhibited an unusual behavior (just instinctively trying to cover her food to save it for later!), Pat sent me a quick video to ask about it, which made me feel good about the care my dog was receiving. Overall I was totally happy with our experience having Pat petsit. We look forward to using her when I have to travel again soon and I recommend her without reservation. Thanks very much Pat!”

Judy had an amazing time at Jackie's. As a senior dog of almost 14, Judy occasionally suffers from anxiety and incontinence and I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Jackie is kind, loving and personable and paid special attention to all of Judy's needs. I would not hesitate to recommend her to other pet owners. She is wonderful!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Jefferson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,900 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Jefferson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

93% of sitters in Jefferson can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Jefferson home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Jefferson.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Jefferson sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

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.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
