“Max and his pup Ollie welcomed Bella for a long weekend very well. Max is really great about making sure Bella had plenty of walks throughout the day, as well as sending photos throughout her stay. Will continue to use him for Bella's stays!”

“Xiuping is an amazing and responsive dog sitter! She sent me lots of pictures and messages throughout the stay, showing how well my dog was being taken care of. This definitely set my mind at ease, knowing and seeing that my dog was having a great time with her family. Dog care instructions were followed very well and she was able to accommodate my last minute requests. I will absolutely be recommending Xiuping to my friends and will have her and her family watch my dog again!”
“Amy took a great care of my dog! He usually gets anxious at new places, but I can tell he was very comfortable and had a lot of fun at Amy's. I appreciate meet and greet before the boarding, and the updates throughout!”
“Lynne took such great care of Napoleon. Napoleon is a senior dog with diabetes and cushings disease and Lynne had never given insulin shots to a dog before but took it on without fail! Napoleon came home super happy and healthy. We are so thankful to have found Lynne to care for our little old man while we went away for the week.”
“The most amazing pictures of my puppy I have seen. Rachel is without doubt an amazing dog parent and most likely a puppy whisperer ( I have never seen my 1 year old monster more calmer). Thank you for helping out. Will be the first choice for dog sitting for me”
“Julie was the perfect sitter! Providing us with frequent updates of our sweet Okie, giving Okie all the love and attention she needed & being so accommodating to our drop off/pick up schedule. I could tell that Okie really enjoyed her time with Julie and is looking forward to her next stay!”
“Jinyu was the best dog sitter we could have dreamed of for our puppy. As new puppy parents, we really appreciated how carefully she followed our instructions. She was kind, thorough, and very easy to work with. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind while also allowing us the space to fully enjoy our vacation. I would highly recommend working with her!”

“From the beginning, Gil demonstrated an impressive level of attentiveness, taking the time to understand Olive's needs and preferences. Regular updates, complete with photos, reassured me that Olive was not only looked after but genuinely loved. Gil treated Olive as if she were his own, and this personalized approach made all the difference. Throughout the stay, Gil's dedication and responsibility in ensuring Olive's well-being exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Gil to anyone seeking top-notch care for their furry companions—Olive came back happy, healthy, and clearly spoiled with the extra love she received. A big thank you to Gil for providing such a wonderful experience—I will undoubtedly be reaching out again for future pet-sitting needs!”
“Erin was a wonderful dogsitter for my doodle, Rey! She was very communicative and super flexible, even going out of her way to pick her up and drop her off. And even though they only spent a couple of days together, Rey clearly loved her time with Erin, as she snuggled up to her and didn’t want her to leave. I’ll definitely be booking Erin again!”
“Jo and Adam did an incredible job taking care of our dog. They were great about communicating and sending plenty of pictures while they watched our puppy. We absolutely plan to use Jo and Adam again in the future.”

Daniel is an amazing dog sitter! I would absolutely recommend him without hesitation. He kept me updated with regular messages and photos of Lexi, which gave me so much peace of mind. He’s also very respectful and caring. You can feel completely confident leaving your dog in his care! 😊🐾
We love to travel, so finding a sitter who truly loves having our dog was very important to us. Hope is exactly the person we were looking for! She loves our dog, Louie, and Louie adores her, too. Louie has a delicate digestive system (pancreatic issue) and needs medication with every meal. If he doesn't take his meds properly, he loses weight and gets sick very quickly. In the past, when we left Louie with other sitters, we would come back to find that he had lost weight and had stomach issues. This time with Hope, he was completely healthy and thriving! Also, usually when a dog gets stressed, they chug water as soon as their owners return. Louie didn't do that at all this time—he was super relaxed and actually seemed to miss Hope! We will definitely bring Louie to visit Hope again and look forward to booking her for our next trip. Thank you so much, Hope, we deeply appreciate your wonderful care for Louie!
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!
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.

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 .
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.

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.
