“Kristen and Bobby took excellent care of our dog Lenny. Lenny and their dog got along great, and Kristen and Bobby followed our instructions perfectly. I would highly recommend!”

“Blaze is a rescue cattle dog who came to us in Jan. 2021. By nature, she is somewhat slow to warm up to new people. We were a bit anxious about leaving her for 2 weeks, but we immediately knew that Carolyn was the perfect host at our meet and greet. She and her family (both two legged and four legged) let Blaze take her time in acclimating and in no time at all she was one of their pack. We got a few pictures every day and our only concern was whether or not Blaze would want to come home with us when we got back! We will definitely choose Carolyn as a host again on our next vacation. She is warm, responsible, professional and caring. Blaze can't wait to go back!”

“Mimi is GREAT! She took amazing care of my dog. She has a wonderful indoor space in her home for your dog to play, hang out, and sleep and a big yard for outside time. She even took my dog on a few adventures — a trip to Home Depot and a walk in the park. She seemed to really clue into my dog’s personality and connect with her. Will definitely be setting up another visit with Mimi!”

“Man & Zhen took great care of Wadsworth! They took him on lots of walks and sent a ton of photos. I could tell they treated him like part of the family :-) I would absolutely book with them again!!”


“Sylwia is the nicest, so responsive, and caring. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and caring for them. So lucky to have her take care of our pup when we are out town!”

“Michelle was awesome! She would constantly give us updates while she watched our dog Ginger with pictures and texts. Ginger was so happy while she was in Michelle’s care. We are so grateful she was able to watch her and 10/10 would do again! Thank you again Michelle! :D”


“We gave Danielle very little notice for a week stay for our terrier mix as our travel plans had changed. Danielle was calm and gracious and sent lots of photos. Winston came back to us relaxed and happy. So pleased to have found her and will continue to book with her in the future. Thank you so very much!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly love caring for them. I have experience looking after dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles, I’m committed to making your pet feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I am committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs they may have. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I treat every pet like family and make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos, so they can feel confident knowing their furry baby is receiving the attention and care they deserve.
“Allie is an excellent sitter! I had a nice meet n greet beforehand to see if we were all the right fit. I love her experience with training since my golden is one and is an opportunist who is still learning the limits. I felt so much better knowing he was with someone who would be in control instead of the pup. Allie is very communicative, kind, flexible, patient, warm and friendly. She is everything you’d want when leaving your furry family member with someone else. Allie took pictures each day and provided an update calming my natural anxiety with something new. If you want your loved ones in good, safe and very capable hands, you cannot go wrong with Allie. Thank you so much Allie!!!”

“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”


“Gregg was extremely accommodating even on short notice. Shared photo or video everyday and Ray seems to have not missed a beat after spending a week with Gregg. Would Recommend to anyone looking.”

“Kate and her family took wonderful care of our Poppy and treated her like one of their own. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone! Just make sure your dog is cat friendly.”

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since i was around 6-10. They were mine until i had to move to another country so i had to give them away. I'm available all summer so i have a lot of free time that i can use to save money before school starts, i cant wait! I have a lot of space in my opinion in the leaving room, and i also live where theres a lot of space out side to play and have fun!
“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.”


“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.”


“Elizabeth and Neil are top notch. If you are looking for a pet sitter look no further. They are kind, caring and they go the extra mile. They send updates with pics quite often and make you feel at ease. I wholeheartedly believe that my dog Zoey thinks this is her second home. She makes herself right at home and snuggles up with them on the couch and she could not look any closer more content. It was my lucky day when I found Elizabeth and Neil. I look forward to working with them for years to come.”


“Very sweet couple, they are true dog people. Miles and Ozzy were well taken cared of, Kimm was always responsive and sent pictures. They went on multiple walks and hikes. They also had other dogs with them, maybe the only thing that I would have changed, because Miles is a nervous dog, but I’m sure we can arrange for exclusivity in the future.”

“We boarded our chocolate lab, Finn, with Kavita for 10 days while we were traveling, and we couldn't have been happier. Kavita sent us photos of Finn every single day, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear he was comfortable, well cared for, and having a good time. Finn loved hanging out with Kavita's dog, Toby. Leaving your dog for that long is never easy, but Kavita made it stress-free. We're so grateful for the attentive care she gave Finn and would happily board with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Ahmed was very patient and caring with our dog throughout his stay. Our dog can definitely be tough, especially in a new environment and during his first boarding experience, so I really appreciate the amount of patience, time, and effort Ahmed put into making him comfortable. He kept us updated throughout the stay, made sure Niko was eating, drinking, going outside, and settling in, and communicated with us whenever there were concerns. I know caring for a dog like Niko can require extra patience, and Ahmed went above and beyond to accommodate him and give him the space and attention he needed. We really appreciate everything he did for Niko during his stay and would recommend him to other pet owners.”

We are so happy with Joseph! He took great care of our Lulu while we were away and kept us updated throughout our trip. It gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. We truly appreciate his patience, kindness, and care. Thank you so much, Joseph! We would definitely recommend him and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again! ❤️🐾

We are so happy to have found Stacey, this is Lili‘s second stay with her. And just like the first time, everything went so well that we were able to really enjoy our trip. Stacey goes above and beyond with communication and photos of our dog, which is comforting, especially when we’re so far away. We have a picky eater and she came home nice and plump! She is also experienced in giving meds, so that was great as well. We will definitely have our dog stay with Stacey again in the future!

Caty and her family were great with our little man Max. Our pup has so much anxiety that stays with anyone is sometime a bit stressful, but he was clearly at home. The updates and pictures, he looked very happy and we are grateful they took such good care of him while we were away. I would recommend Caty, especially if you have a dog who needs some extra love during your absence!

Alfredo loved hanging out with Jessica and her family, and cannot wait to go back for another stay! Jessica kept in close communication with delightful photos and videos. She handled situations that popped up with grace while keeping us informed. I felt so comfortable with him in her care

Gabriel have done an excellent job taking care of Leo when I needed his services. He usually let's me know about Leo's behavior and that make me feel comfortable knowing that he wants to know more about how to treat Leo. I am glad to have found Gabriel. He is someone I can trust when I need to leave Leo with s

Kat is a great doggo host. She is very knowledgeable about K9's and treated my pup like her own. She is very communicative, sends pictures while your pup is staying with her along with any updates on the shenanigans going on while staying with her. My dog assimilated well with her host pack and I would HIGHLY recommend her if you need daycare, training or boarding. Her energy is great & I enjoyed my time away knowing my dog was in EXCELLENT HANDS. Thanks again Kat!!!!!!!!

Vanessa is wonderful! She watched our dog for over a week and sent us pictures and videos every day of his stay! She gave him toys to play with, frequent walks, bones to chew and her own dog to play with! And, when our flight home was delayed by 6 hours, she was super gracious and kept him an extra night without any issues. She’s very friendly, kind and a true dog person. I highly recommend her!!

Carina was very easy to work with. She even had many of the items in her home already, like toys and food/water bowls. My dog came back super happy after his time with her. And the next time we booked her, he was even more excited to be back. She is very sweet, attentive and caring!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Lawrence is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $70 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 3,840 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lawrence. About 91% of Lawrence 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
