“Vanessa and Diana took amazing care of our dog! They were incredibly flexible when we needed to push our pickup time back a few hours. I could not recommend them highly enough!”

“Marie and her husband were wonderful with our sweet girl - they clearly love dogs! She got lots of exercise and cuddles and we got lots of updates. They were also flexible when our flight home got delayed (thank you!). Zelda had a great time, and we would definitely book again!”

“My very sweet, energetic and sometimes anxious Ruby had another very happy stay with Michelle. I can tell how much Michelle loves dogs in how thoughtful she is interacting with them. Although I miss Ruby while I'm away, it is so so comforting knowing she is with Michelle, & getting such wonderful attention & care. Thank you, Michelle!!!”

“john was great! effi seemed to enjoy her day and was exhausted when she got home! straight to sleep! John was flexible, friendly, reliable, and my dog really loved him!”

“Rachel had my dog for three weeks. I was a little apprehensive As I have never left him that long before. She sent pictures every day. And he looked so happy in each one of them. 10 out of 10 would book with Rachel again. My dog was really happy there”

“Maddy was so wonderful with my dog Jester!! We got tons of pictures and videos and you could tell how happy Jester was staying there. I was assured the whole time that my dog was well taken care of. We will use her again!”


“I thought Anton was great! He came on time, and when he left after dropping off my dog. My dog kept on trying to lead me to the parking spot. I think he did a good job in taking care of Scout. Scout seemed in a good mood and Scout didn't seem to want a long walk afterwards”

“Patrick was great and super responsive, sending me pictures of Albie throughout the day/ night he stayed with him. He also was thorough in making sure he understood Albie’s needs at the start of his visit, which made it even smoother. Would definitely ask him to watch Albie another time!”

“We had a last minute trip during a holiday weekend and reached out to Hunter who quickly agreed to take care of our 15 year old toy poodle. She was quick to respond and provided great communication during the entire care. Our dog also got along great with her dogs. Would use her again!”

“Could not recommend Steven enough!! Sooty was well looked after during the Christmas period and she had a great time playing with Milo! Would definitely use again! Thanks again!”

“Charlie loves Ilya’s place and all the fun friends he meets on a visit. Ilya has been so helpful and flexible with drop off and pickup times while my apartment is having realtor showings and I’ve been on longer work trips, saving me a lot of stress!”

“Amy is amazing with my dog, LiLi. She keeps her engaged with toys and treats, walks her 2X a day which is a deal breaker for LiLi digestion and derive to food. I can’t recommend her enough.”

“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!”

“The best experience I have ever had with a sitter! Christina was extremely flexible and communicative! She provided photos of our pup having the best time all weekend and frankly our dog was less than impressed with us when we picked her up. Will definitely be booking her again.”

“Haowen and his girlfriend were wonderful Rovers! I found Haowen after my previously-booked Rover cancelled last minute. Because of the last minute booking, I was very nervous, but Haowen was very attentive and asked a lot of questions up front to understand my dog’s needs and how best to accommodate her. During her stay, I received multiple pictures per day showing her having a wonderful time with Haowen.”

“Mandy is cheerful and easy-going. She provided photos of my pet regularly and confirmed that meals were consumed (since our pet refuses to eat at times) and exercise was given. The fenced yard and deck are ample for fresh air breaks and Ruby seemed very much at home during her stay.”


“My fiancé and I needed accommodations for our pup last minute as we were visiting Salem just for the day, and Hannah was extremely quick to reply and more than incredible with Jojo. She sent us updates and a photo and also took him on a walk. She’s so kind and dependable, and I definitely recommend leaving your pup with her.”

“Fernanda took excellent care of Torri! Sent pictures and information throughout our trip to keep us informed of Torri's activities. Extremely responsive to any questions we had. Felt good to know Torri was well cared for.”

Cowgirl had the most wonderful time with Angella, she was cuddled and in great hands, our puppy is a recent rescue so we were really well assured with her updates and pictures, Cowgirl came back calm, happy and with lots of new toys Angella was so kind to give to her!! 🤍

After our original sitter had to cancel - Hunter and her partner graciously agreed to watch Ralph while we were away for a week. Having watched Ralph once before, Hunter and her partner are truly exceptional sitters. Taking Ralph in like one of their own, sending daily photos and updates, and just overall making sure Ralph got the best treatment makes them the best. I can’t recommend them enough!

I couldn’t recommend Brandon more. I was away in Europe and felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. His communication was excellent from start to finish, and he sent me photos every day, which I really appreciated while being so far away. It was obvious that my dog was getting plenty of love, attention, and care the entire time. He honestly came back even more spoiled than when I left him, which says a lot. I’m very particular about who I trust with my dog, especially for an extended stay, and this was such a positive experience. He was reliable, communicative, attentive, and clearly treated my dog like his own. I would absolutely book with him again and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can genuinely trust with their pet.

This was Mochi's first time stayng with Maryah. I felt that she was definitely in good hands with her. We got daily pictures or videos of Mochi with her own dogs, Lilo and Stitch, and once a weeker, Luna. Super easy for us to get to her place. Would for sure use Maryah in the future.

My second time using Yu to look after my two cats - absolutely fantastic care and highly recommend! I received so many pictures and videos of my two having a blast with her and looking super comfortable and cozy getting lots of cuddles! One of cats can sometimes get stressed in new environments and he has had no issues staying with Yu and getting his meds. She goes above and beyond with communication

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Malden on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 4,028 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Malden. About 90% of Malden 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 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.
