“We had a great experience with Elizabeth and Rodrigo! There was daily communication as well as photo updates — our dog looked right at home! We had total peace of mind while we were away. Murphy already can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Yi for Allie. She provided me regular updates and made sure she felt comfortable and happy while I was away. Allie was well taken care of, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of a reliable sitter.”
“Yi was fabulous! She took great care of our ragdoll kitten, Pudding. She is incredibly responsive and sends multiple pictures and videos every day. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Robert and Jen took such great care of Rosie and Emmy while we were away. We were able to enjoy our vacation and keep up with our pups thanks to the regular photos they sent us daily. We look forward to other trips knowing Rosie and Emmy will be well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Ashley and her family were great with Buddy! The pictures I received from her showed Buddy having an excellent time. I’ve already got Buddy booked to stay with her the next time I’m traveling.”
“My dog was so excited to go back to Todd’s for an overnight stay. He had the best time whenever he goes there, gets plenty of walks, lots of attention, and comes home such a happy camper. Todd is a trusted sitter for us and I will continue to book with him whenever I need somewhere for my dog to stay!”
“Kenna did a great job at looking over Chico for a weekend! Chico is a bit antisocial and can be a little standoff-ish with other pups but Kenna handled him well! 10/10 Just book!!”
“It was our first time leaving our 1yo puppy with a new family. He spent 4 nights with her and had a great time. Nicole was very kind, very understanding of his special needs and treated him to a great adventure on a beach. Could not have asked for a better family to leave our doggie. Thank you Nicole!”
“Patrick took great care of my dog over Thanksgiving. He was communicative during the planning process and while he was sitting my dog, he sent daily videos and updates. Highly recommend Patrick!”
“Sean is reliable, easy to work with, and a true dog lover. My dog can be difficult with other dogs and a dominant personality, but seems to have no trouble at Sean’s. He recognizes the place now and is excited to go inside and play with his buddies. I highly recommend Sean’s services if you need boarding and pet sitting.”
“Jonathan is an exceptional dog-sitter, our pet was very well cared for, exercised, and received lots of affection and attention. Jonathan was also very accommodating when we needed to extend our stay by a day at the last minute. Would recommend and will certainly book with again!”
About: I'm an experienced dog-sitter and equestrian who's able to care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and medical needs. I work from home and am able to provide specified care for your pup while you're away, including: frequent walks, hikes in local conservation areas, and the administration of medications. I supervise dogs closely, can provide basic veterinary care, and live near an emergency veterinary office, just in case. I have my own dog in the home. When your dog is with me, they'll be cared for like my own with plenty of exercise, socialization, and love. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible. I currently walk and feed my own dog at 7:00am, noonish, 5:00pm, and 9:30pm. I can provide numerous walks for your dog each day during the week, and will take them local "adventures" on the weekends to local parks, Middlesex Fells Reservation, etc. My own dog is friendly and playful, and will keep your pet company.
“Jane was an incredible sitter! She kept our 3 year old poodle happy and entertained the entire visit. We received regular photo updates and she was flexible/communicative throughout the whole process. We would absolutely have her watch Maggie again!”
“Danielle and her husband couldn't have done a better job! Teddy, my Bichon Frise was obviously happy and well cared for and Danielle made sure I received pix along the way to put my mind at ease. I would heartily recommend her and will have Teddy stay with her again when the need arises.”
“Tyler and Meichen were awesome with Milo! They kept sending us pictures, took him for multiple walks and it was clear he was super happy and having a great time. They really took great care of him, and we felt so at ease knowing he was in good hands. I’d totally recommend them to anyone looking for dog sitters—they’re the best!”
“Ann and her husband took incredible care of our dog. She sent updates and photos regularly while we were away. She was also very accommodating with the drop off and pick up schedule, and was able to accommodate a last minute schedule change. It’s clear that Ann and her husband are dog lovers and go and beyond in their care. We will definitely use them again!”

I was so nervous leaving my 8 month old puppy overnight for the first time for 5 days, especially while I was away out of the country, but Jingjing immediately put me at ease. She gave my puppy such personal, thoughtful attention and clearly cared about making her feel safe, comfortable, and loved. She also took the time to text and send pictures everyday. My puppy is a bit of a picky eater, so I was especially grateful that Jingjing took the time to make her personal meals and ensure she was eating well. That extra level of care meant so much to me and truly showed how attentive and compassionate Jingjing is. It was obvious that my puppy was in wonderful hands, and I came home feeling so grateful to have found someone I can trust. I would absolutely recommend Jingjing to anyone and 100% will use her again for my puppy.
Ms. King is a very trustworthy and caring sitter! She took care of our senior Boston Terrier for six days and sent us lots of photos every day. Our dog isn’t always super friendly with other dogs, so I was a little worried about how she would do, but her Golden Retrieve, Gabe, was very calm and gentle, and they did great together! We would definitely love to have Ms. King take care of her again!
Aya was an amazing sitter. She communicated with me the whole time and I didnt have to ask for pictures because she already sent them! She was very responsive and understanding. I will be going back. Bluey loved her. Im very grateful she was able to watch her. Thank you Aya!
Aysegul and her husband took amazing care of our cat, Momo. She had a wonderful time and actually relaxed, played, and ate - all things that are very unusual for her when we travel. Aysegul shared several updates and adorable photos of Momo throughout the day, which really put us at ease and made it so much easier knowing she was doing well. We highly recommend them!
Yi took wonderful care of our dog. We got frequent updates and lots of photos on walks and eating. This was our first rover, so our dog got quite stressed being in a new environment but Yi did a really great job of taking care of him during that time. She was very thoughtful for our dog and stress mess he made. We really appreciate her for that.
For Rover: Dave and Jess were exceptionally kind, thoughtful and professional, while caring for our 17 year-old dog, they even sang happy birthday to him when he turned 17! They noticed that he was stressed in missing us, which then turned into a UTI, which they’ve experienced, but we have not, I know in 17 years! So they contacted us and brought him to a 24 er which they had been to before and arranged for us to talk to them on the phone while we were on the other side of the country traveling. It all worked out great. We then picked up our beloved dog, Ferris and brought him home and he was no longer stressed, but still on the meds that Dave and Jess had started giving him. We cannot say enough, good things about their care and would definitely use them again.
Anne was absolutely wonderful with Toto! She took amazing care of her and kept me updated with photos and videos throughout, which gave me so much peace of mind. She’s very caring and attentive and Toto was so happy and relaxed with her! I’d definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving sitter.

There are 4,246 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lexington. About 90% of Lexington 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.

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 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.
