It was such a relief booking with with her. She was able to take my dog last minute and catered to both of their personalities. She went above and beyond what I need her to do and definitely exceeded all my expectations. To the point, my dogs didn’t even wanna leave her. She accommodated them in every way for sure. Kept me updated with pictures and made the pick up and drop off very smooth. I can’t wait to book with her again. And I’m sure they would love to see her again as well.

Ilya was responsive, gave detailed daily updates, and sent pictures throughout the stay. He took Lia on multiple walks a day, and I think she really enjoyed her time there. I also appreciated that Ilya was super accommodating with a last minute change in my pick up time.

Antonio was great with our two dogs. We will be leaving them for a longer period soon, but wanted to do a trial run to make sure it would work. I appreciate him being in contact with us as we planned this out, and his working to understand the needs of one of our dogs who has separation anxiety.

Emily & Daniel were fantastic! They took such great care of Ubu and thoughtfully checked in beforehand to see if there was anything more to know about her routine. Communication was easy, and I really appreciated the photos during her stay. Their dog, Thomas, is adorably—I loved seeing him and Ubu snuggled up!

Hello. This is a first-rate, dog care experience, folks. Séamus hosted my dog for a brief meet-&-greet prior to his stay, which was successful and excellent. Séamus, overall, is very thoughtful and thorough in his preparation and concern for your dog, and is an excellent communicator while you are away. Séamus is clearly a “dog person”, and it shows. There is a lovely, enclosed, safe backyard for your dog to play and stretch-legs, and, I honestly can say, …..I didn’t worry about my dog once. I received photos of my dog and also received updates periodically while I was away. Excellent service! Charlie came home happy, healthy, rested and in great spirits! A+ Thank you, Séamus

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.

My dog has really bad anxiety in unfamiliar places and people. Martha was really great at making him comfortable and my dog was able to adjust quickly! Martha sent regular pictures, videos and updates that I was completely sure my dog was taken cared of. She’s quite experienced and overall very trustworthy. Would 100% recommend!

We had such a wonderful experience with Fernanda! Willow was instantly comfortable and clearly had the best time. We got frequent updates throughout her stay, and it was so sweet to see how much attention and care she was getting. They played games with her, taught her new tricks, and really went above and beyond to keep her happy and entertained. Their daughter was also incredibly sweet with Willow, which made the whole experience even more special. We felt completely at ease knowing Willow was in such loving hands and would absolutely book with them again.

Mike and his family were amazing and loving to my girl Brie! He understands how her anxiety worked and he worked with her. I was so happy and felt so at ease with all the updates he gave us throughout her stay! He even helped us out with her walks and helping redirecting her. I know she felt comfortable with them and she felt loved! So hard to find someone who gives the love and attention the same as at home! So happy I found Michael on Rover! He is very knowledgeable on how to help work with my dogs reaction in situations on walks, and on how to enforce positive behavior! I highly recommend him to anyone! He has a true love and compassion for dogs! I know my Brie will miss him, almost felt she would never want to leave! 😊

FAQs for Boarding - Malden

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.

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 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.
