“Thank you for minding Theo in our absence! Great videos, excellent response time to my messages. Exceptionally knowledgeable about dog behavior! Lovely family, great back yard and lots of walks. Happy, tired guy. Thank you!”
“We've used Hyesun to sit for us several times now. She takes excellent care of our dogs, walks them several times daily, has a clean, safe, house and makes the effort to send photos and keep us in the loop. I really cannot recommend her enough. I'm sure we'll be going back to her for our future sitting needs.”
“Natali was great! She watched my pooch for me last minute and ensured he was comfortable and well taken care of after being neutered a few days prior. Would definitely recommend and book her again!”
“David and his family were fantastic hosts to our pup - we cannot recommend them highly enough! They were responsive during the booking process and continued with consistent communication throughout Vega's stay. The level of care and attention being paid to Vega was immediately obvious due to the updates and observations we received each night. Our dog has a bit of anxiety, especially during longer stays away, and David was on-point about noticing changes in her behavior and asking questions when necessary. Barring a scheduling conflict there's no other family we'd even consider having Vega stay with.”
“Cookie had a one night overnight before a longer pet sitting. She had a wonderful time! Ariana and her whole family were very loving. I know Cookie will Be well taken care of for the next time.”
“Jennifer was amazing watching our puppy, Loki! She even provided pet taxi for pick up and drop off! She kept us updated throughout his weekend stay with her the entire time and he loved playing with her 2 pups! Thank you so much!”
“Ana Maria was great with my puppy. She was very caring and understanding of my puppy separation anxiety, and also she was flexible with my last minute schedule change. She was truly a blessing during our trip to MA and I am looking forward to come back to MA to visit my daughter and booking with Ana Maria again. 😊”
“Another amazing stay for Rosie with Lori and Billy! We are a repeat customer and have found each and every time Lori (and family) take amazing care of our Rosie girl. The most recent stay, our family went out of state to an area with limited cell reception. We have a lot of trust in Lori that we know Rosie will be happy and we’ll cared for. We got tons of pictures during the week and it made us so happy and able to relax knowing Rosie was having so much fun! We highly recommend Lori! Thank you for taking good care of our girl!”
“Paul and Megan were absolutely wonderful with my dog Gus. As an anxious rescue dog, he can be hesitant in new situations and around new people, but they showed so much patience, kindness, and understanding that he quickly seemed to feel at ease with them. I’m incredibly grateful for the love and attention they gave him and would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was extremely communicative and sent lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. I had to book last minute due to a family emergency, and she completely put my mind at ease. Lily was so well cared for and happy when I returned. I would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have always owned pets and cared for pets of family and friends. I adopted my dog in 2017 and worked hard with a trainer and have learned a lot about walking dogs and caring for dogs and am very cautious and confident walking dogs. I also have 3 senior dogs currently and am used to caring for seniors. I currently work part time and have two children. My job schedule is flexible and I often have gaps in my day and time to walk dogs. I can also do occasional overnights. I will respect and follow your safety reccomendations and needs for your dog. I am very diligent and organized and will be able to follow instructions and keep your dogs safe and happy!
“Freddi was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Edie! She sent great photos and updates during her stay. She clearly took great care of Edie, taking her on long walks on the beach every morning and being sensitive to her needs since she can be anxious in new places. We definitely would recommend Freddi and hope to have Edie stay again in the future!”
“Kyli and Scott were amazing! Our dog had so much love, attention, adventure, and care. He didn't want to leave! They took him to the beach, played with him with their giant bucket of toys, and sent lots of great pictures that are probably going to end up on his instagram. They were extremely responsive, and while our dog Kyle usually doesn't eat much when in a new environment, was actually eating his kibble more than at home! Would give more than 5 stars if I could.”
“I don't even know where to start. Megan and her little family were amazing with Miles. She gave me regular updates and sent pictures, she answered my emails within a few hours. It was perfect. My pooch got sick and she was amazing at taking care of him and following my recommendations. When I went to pick up Miles it was obvious that he had had a stupendous time with them. I cannot recommend Megan enough. I don't even live in South Boston and I would still go over there to have Miles stay with them. If you are looking for sitters, look no more and book with Megan, Riley and Tom. ”
“Quiana is AMAZING!!!!!!! She was phenomenal with all three dogs and asked such great, breed-specific questions during our Meet and Greet. She also did a wonderful job accommodating medication and odd feeding requests, and helped give us peace of mind with regular updates on each. What a fantastic sitter!! Cannot praise her enough.”
“Forever sending my spunky dog, Amber, on staycations at John’s house. Just got back from a week in AZ - John’s ability to keep you updated with your dog (pics), and level of professionalism ever cease to amaze me. Thank you, again, John!”
“Alex is wonderful with my elderly dog, Zoe. I appreciate the peace of mind knowing that he's taking great care of her and she's so happy on her own vacation with him. Thank you, Alex!”

Charlotte is the best! I’d never left my anxious, yappy little old dog with anyone before, but Charlotte took a chance on her and gave her amazing care. She was patient, kind, and made sure my pup felt safe and loved the whole time. I got regular updates and came home to a happy dog — which is saying a lot! I can’t recommend her enough.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Marblehead on Rover is $53.28 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,695 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Marblehead. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Marblehead sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Marblehead landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Marblehead 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 Marblehead.
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.
You and your Marblehead 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.
