“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Chanel was amazing with my elderly dog, who is a kind of persnickety old lady. She sent pics regularly (including her very cute toddler son "helping" with a walk) and let me know everything was going well. She was patient and flexible with scheduling and made me feel completely at ease boarding my beloved pup with her. I would love to bring my dog back to stay with Chanel in the future!”
“JJ & Youfei are wonderful hosts!! Our dog Aria had a great 2-week stay at their place. They took excellent care of her, trained her to pull less while walking, tolerated her accident and chewing, got her new toys, and took her out for a weekend excursion. It was the best stayover Aria ever had! She also played a lot with their dog Nano with whom she has found a great friend. I received pictures every day and felt very assured that Aria was having a great time. I couldn't ask for better hosts!”
“I’ve booked with Zwany and Leandro before and I cannot recommend them enough! They are kind, responsive, and will care for your pets like they are their own!”
“Haowen was amazing! I was really nervous about leaving my dog with a new person, but I had no reason to worry. They took lots of photos and sent me several updates daily. My dog did have a little accident when she first got there (which she never does 🤦🏼♀️), but Haowen was so understanding about it. I would definitely use this rover again!! Cleo came home super tired, so I’m guessing she had a fun weekend lol”
“Jackie is simply the best! She was able to help us with urgent dog care due to a family situation and was extremely responsive throughout the day so we knew our pup was doing just fine. Her dog is extremely friendly with other dogs and humans too!”
“I haven’t used Rover in awhile as I started traveling with my pug Captain...but for a recent quick trip I decided it was worth it. I saw Ben’s profile and thought he seemed like a great fit to watch Captain. Ben and his girlfriend loved watching Captain and raved about their time with him. I could tell Captain also enjoyed himself! Ben was also very responsive and accommodated my schedule for pick up/drop off. I’d definitely use Ben as our dog sitter for our next trip!”
“Vanessa and her partner took great care of my little Mochi for a week and half. They went above and beyond what i would expect from any dog sitter. They made sure to exercise Mochi multiple times a day. They also taught my little one new tricks! Truly amazing. I had also left Mochi with a set of new treats I was hoping she would enjoy. Unbeknownst to all of us, Mochi ended up getting some diarrhea from those treats. Luckily, Vanessa was able to weed out the culprit very quickly, allowing Mochi to regain her appetite after discarding the treats. Vanessa made sure to send me plenty pictures and videos of my little one. Mochi felt right at home with them. I can't stress enough what a blessing it has been to have Vanessa take care of my little one in my absence. :D”
“Andrea was fantastic! She treated our dog as though he was her own. Our dog also got along so well with her sweet dog, Nikki. I think our dog was genuinely sad to come home. We will without a doubt use her again!”
“Milly had a great time staying at Sofia's for a long weekend! Not only does she have a nice fenced in backyard for the dogs to play, but Sofia was babysitting two other dogs that weekend (along with her dog Bandit) and they seemed to get along wonderfully. We received photos and videos during the weekend, which was really sweet, and Milly was very sleepy after her visit! I would definitely go to Sofia and Bandit again.”
“Another great experience with Seamus! Maybelle had a great time playing with Jackie-O and got a lot of cuddles from Seamus and Bon. It's the best 'home away from home' we could hope for. Seamus sent lots of photos and videos while we were away and was flexible on the pick-up time. Thanks so much!”
“Martha was the best sitter for our dog. This was his first time away from us and he did great thanks to the care and attention he got from Martha. Lots of walks and even a nail clipping made his stay a great experience!”
“Rachel did an amazing job taking care of Kaia for a week! She was super responsive, accommodating, and adored Kaia very much. Definitely felt like my pup was in great hands.”
“Tyler took great care of our lab while we were away and sent a couple photos a day. He came back happy and cared for! We’ll definitely book with him again.”
“I am very glad I found John, as he was such a caring & attentive & calm sitter for slightly anxious dog. He gave routine updates & pictures to keep me informed of how things were going, & I can tell my dog had a very comfortable stay. I will definitely be booking John again!”
“Melodi is amazing! My 7-month-old Mini Aussie came back home so happy after spending 5 days at Melodi's. She is super flexible, communication with her is super easy and she definitely knows how to take care of our little friends! This was the first time I was leaving him and she made sure I had regular updates and send a ton of pictures - I really appreciated it. I will recommend her a lot and will definitely use her services again! Thank you Melodi!”

Yesika was so wonderful with my two small dogs. We planned to leave them with Yesika for four days but we had to extend the boarding one more day due to the last minute change. Yesika cancelled her plan to accommodate our sudden plan change. My two dogs, Happy and Snowy, looked great after their stay with Yesika and they seems to have really enjoyed their stay. Yesika sent us many photos of them throughout the stay so we felt good about leaving them with Yesika for one more day than planned.
Our golden retriever loves her time with Kimberlyn so much!! She’s spent many weekends with her and always comes home happy and tired from all the fun had. Kimberlyn is an excellent communicator and great about sending updates. We would absolutely book again with her!
Our dog Milly had a great stay with Sofia! She had a great time playing with the other dogs that were there and sprinting around the fenced in yard. Sofia was attentive to her play style with the other dogs in the house and she was very accommodating with us dropping Milly off earlier than we planned
Layne took terrific care of our cat, Pixel, for two weeks. He sent daily photos and let us know how she was doing. We also appreciated that he has lots of cat toys, a litter box, and dishes. That made bringing her over a lot easier. Pixel seemed right at home at Layne's place and the reassuring communication allowed us to enjoy our vacation with no worries. We would definitely book with Layne again.
It looks like Bailey had another great time with Martha! This is his second time but this time it was for a week. We received multiple texts with photos and videos of his time and it always looked like he was getting the best care and attention. We will book with Martha again in the future!
She was a wonderful sitter for my dog over three days. My dog really liked her, and she took extra care to help him feel comfortable and less anxious while I was away. She was also very flexible, accommodating, and easy to communicate with throughout the stay. I would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to other dog owners!
Metehan and Aya took great care of Fig and Pesto for over a week while we were away. We got picture and video updates regularly and they asked questions when they wanted clarification on anything. They were very accommodating and their apartment has lots of great places for the cats to hide, explore, and lounge, while being very clean. They were great hosts and very welcoming. We would recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Malden on Rover is $65.49 per night (as of August 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 4,086 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Malden. About 91% 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.
