“John and Sharon took top notch care of our pups! Our dogs had a wonderful vacation of their own, went on walks and got lots of love. We received daily updates and pictures which was very appreciated. It was obvious from the photos that our dogs loved their stay and were super comfortable and happy. One of our dogs even bonded with John and was sad to leave! We already booked our next boarding!”
“Monica was amazing caring for my dog Penny for the week I was away! She agreed to watch Penny even though it was a last minute request, paid attention to the unique and quirky behaviors I told her about and kept me updated everyday. I was nervous to leave Penny with someone I didn’t know last minute but Monica relieved my worries and stress. Penny got to hang out with her lab Dakota and romp around everyday in their outdoor area which was great for Penny. I would highly recommend Monica if you need pet care, she was wonderful with my dog and all of her needs.”
About: My husband and I both grew up with dogs and had the privilege of fostering several dogs while living in Rwanda for 2 years. This past May, we unexpectedly lost our beloved 11-year-old dog. She was so much more than a pet—she was truly a member of our family and had grown up alongside our children, ages 9 and 6. We’re not quite ready to fill the space she left behind, so we thought Rover might be a wonderful way to spend time with dogs again while giving another family peace of mind knowing their dog is being cared for and loved. Your dog is allowed on our furniture and has access to a large fenced in yard! Our dog was fear aggressive and we were unable to utilize a boarding facility. We can sympathize that leaving your dog can be difficult. We’ll treat them like one of our own—with lots of affection, patience, attention, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Having fostered dogs with very different personalities and backgrounds, we know that every dog has their own needs, quirks, and way of showing love. We’d love to welcome your dog into our home and give them the same love and care we’ve always given our own. Note: For the comfort and safety of your pup, we only care for dogs from one family at a time. We’re happy to accommodate two dogs from the same family, but we do not mix dogs from different households during the same stay. I work in healthcare on Monday and Wednesday evenings. On these days, I leave for work at 12pm and Patrick is home by 2:30pm. On Saturdays, I work a 12 hour shift and Patrick is home with our children. Our family does have occasional evening or weekend commitments for our children’s sports/activities, but these are typically short outings, and we are rarely away from home for more than four hours at a time. We’re happy to work with you to make sure your dog’s routine and needs fit comfortably into our schedule. Because I have a flexible schedule the majority of the week, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and breaks throughout the day. I’m also happy to accommodate a dog who needs more frequent potty breaks or simply prefers not to be alone for long periods (we've been there). We have a large fenced in yard where your dog can run to their heart's content. We will respect your wishes regarding your preferences for staying off of furniture, sleeping in a crate, etc. That said, your dog is welcome to sleep in our bed, lounge on the couch and take a snooze on our deck.
“Andrew, Heidi, and their kids were amazing and very accommodating with our high-energy dog, Wally. He seemed very comfortable in their home and came back his usual, playful self. Would highly recommend!”
“It was Murphy’s second time ever staying away from home, and his first Rover experience so we were nervous about how he would do. Sean was so responsive through the entire process, kind, understanding and flexible with us. He shared updates so we were assured Murphy was doing well, and Murphy had a great time. He seemed comfortable going in, and almost like he was sad his vacation had ended at pickup. He was well exercised and ready for a nap after vacation, just like we were!”
“We left our 1.5 year old bernedoodle Walter with Gus for a week while on vacation. Walter is a bit nervous around new people and we had only ever left him for a week last year when he stayed with our neighbors, so I was nervous about how this would go. Walter had an excellent time! Gus has an enormous shaded fenced-in yard. He has around 4 dogs per day there for daycare which Walter loved, and only takes 2 dogs per night to board. The dogs sleep downstairs on the main level but Gus was flexible that if Walter was upset he could come upstairs (this was not a problem after all, Walter was fine.) Gus texted me frequent updates and pics. Walter also takes a daily medication which Gus had no problem managing. Overall this made our trip much better knowing that Walter was so well cared for, and I would happily leave him with Gus again!”
“The is the second time I booked with Annmarie. Annmarie was very accommodating with my last minute request as I flew unexpectedly to see my parents. You can absolutely tell she adores dogs of all kinds and my little Pearly is no exception. She was treated like a queen.”
“Kaylee seemed to really enjoy her time with Steve and Christine! They took great care of her and handled her meds while we were gone. She was so relaxed, she barely noticed that we had arrived to pick her up.”
“Jing was amazing with our older dog. She treated him like her own and took him on walks, played with him and gave him lots of love. She sent me pictures throughout the whole 12 days we were away. He seemed very happy”
“What an amazing couple who took care of our boy! Frodo fell in love with Jeremy and Rui instantly. He was super happy with them. They kept us well informed with pictures and videos of our pup while we were away.Thank you so much!!”
“My Dog Bella means the world to me. After booking with Lindsay, I have nothing but positive reviews for Bella’s stay. Her house, environment was clean. Lindsay was warm, professional and I could tell without a doubt that Bella would be safe and happy. In the future, I will use noone but Lindsay!! Five stars with ease!!!!”
“Alyson was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and updates while watching my cat and it was clear he was having a great time. She asked questions and was super responsive - would definitely recommend booking with her and I will book again!”
“Our usual dog boarder wasn't available for a short mid-week getaway so we found Julie on Rover. She was wonderful! Julie has a lovely home with a fantastic screened porch and great flat, fenced-in yard. We met a few days before to introduce my dog to hers and share info. Julie's dog is happy and sweet and was good company for mine, in addition to Julie, while we were away. I didn't worry at all knowing our pup was in good hands. Julie even sent me a couple updates and some cute pics and a video - our dog truly had a great stay! We would definitely book Julie again. You should, too. ;)”
“Our dog, Ethel, came back from her weekend stay looking tired, but definitely well-cared for. Ethel was treated like she was one of the family. We got daily updates and pictures from Kyla, and she was quick to respond whenever I reached out to her. Thank you for a good first experience with leaving our dog with a boarder found on Rover!”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Matt and Patty provided for our Golden Retriever during the 10 nights we were out of the country. From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care. We were able to visit their home beforehand, and they have a wonderful setup, including a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for him to play. Throughout our trip, Matt and Patty sent us frequent updates and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. They took him on daily walks around the neighborhood, gave him lots of attention, and it was very clear that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What really stood out to us was how they handled a day when he wasn’t feeling well and developed some stomach issues. Matt immediately contacted us, proactively made an appointment with the vet, and made sure we were comfortable with him taking our dog in to be seen. Afterward, Matt and Patty followed the vet’s recommendations closely and even cooked rice and beef for his meals for several days while his stomach recovered. They truly cared for him as if he were their own. When we returned, we came home to a very happy puppy, and we could tell he had been loved and well cared for the entire time. We are so excited to have found Matt and Patty. Finding people you can completely trust with your dog while you’re away is incredibly important, and we feel very fortunate to have found such reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring sitters. We would absolutely recommend them and will not hesitate to have them care for our dog again!”
“Dana and Nia took great care of our puppy. He came back exhausted from all of the playing he had done over the weekend! They were very communicative, sending updates at least once a day, and even let us change our pickup time to be more convenient for us. This was our first time using Rover and it was such a relief to not have to worry about our pup while we were away.”

Rackeem and Max welcomed Rico on short notice when I needed last-minute support and they made everything easy. Now, Rico gets excited every time we enter the neighborhood and I feel totally comfortable leaving him there. The yard is a big plus. Rico loves to be outside, has energy to burn, and has a friend in Max. He comes home settled and happy. Highly recommend.
Shoshanah was great and took fantastic overnight care of my dog. I was a nervous wreck as it was my first time leaving our dog in someone else’s home. The unexpected photos and video confirming Aiko was relaxed and content made my heart swell. Five stars will definitely use her services again!

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Mansfield can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Mansfield home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Mansfield.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mansfield. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Mansfield sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
