About: With 25 years of experience having my own dog sitting business, I will take loving care of your precious dog in my Swampscott home. I have a large, fenced-in yard. No cages here. Many great references. Friendly, female dogs only, please. I make my own hours, so I can be home for your dog to take care of her every need. I am crazy about dogs, and my own dog, Annie, gets along well with other friendly dogs. I have a fenced-in yard, which dogs love to go out into. I can let them out any time, for as long as they want to sit outside in the sun, or come inside into the cool air conditioning on hot days.
“Patricia was fabulous! She took incredible care of our pup like she was one of her own! When watching her during the heatwave Patricia made sure there was lots of fun things for her to do to cool off. She got to go swimming in the pool and played around in the splash pad. Patricia was great at keeping us updated and sent lots of photos and videos! Our pup can’t wait to go back!”
About: “I stand out for my patience and dedication. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, from puppies that need training to older pets that require special attention. I always prioritize the safety, well-being and happiness of each animal, adapting to their individual needs. I also have experience taking care of the elderly. " "Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I dedicate specific time for walks, feeding, games and supervision, making sure that each pet receives constant attention, exercise and affection, without affecting my other responsibilities." "When I take care of pets in my home, I create a safe, clean and comfortable environment, making sure they have fresh water, food, exercise and daily playtime. At the client's home, I follow all his specific instructions to maintain the pet's routine, respecting his habits and individual needs."
“Liz was kind and gentle with my dog, Charlie. Everything about this was a good experience-she was easy to communicate with and flexible with figuring out the details. Highly recommend!”
“Ana is exceptional! Wish I could click additional star ratings! Our 'lil Bear was so happy and well cared for so evident in the many beautiful photos sent. Highly, highly recommend! *** HUGE thank you, Ana!!!!”
“BROOKE is Very kind, fun loving, flexible and a true dog lover. Our family was lucky to find her for the weekend. Our dog didn’t want to leave when we arrived to pick her up. She has an adorable puppy who is full of fun energy!”
“Bowser seems to have had a wonderful time with Rebecca and her family! The photo updates were great to share with our kiddos so they could see he was having a nice vacation too 😊”
“Jhoanna was absolutely amazing! Sending updates and was quick with responses. Our girl Sadie was sad to leave. 10/10 would recommend! Definitely someone I’d trust with my girl again!”
“Lindsay is so friendly and truly cares about the well-being of the animals she cares for. She went above and beyond to ensure our anxious pup gets the extra care she needs. I would highly recommend her. It's so comforting knowing your fur baby is in good hands!”
“Apollo loves Victoria - and with good reason. She gives him lots of affection and good care. I get regular photos to be confident that he’s well, safe and happy. I highly recommend Victoria!”
“This was Luna’s first stay with Lori and I knew she was in great hands. Lori has a great set up with a fenced in yard and lives in a nice, quiet neighborhood. Lori was amazing at communicating, sending lots of pics and updates and making sure I knew Luna was safe and having lots of FUN! Lori took her on lots of adventures and took videos to show me real-time action. Lori also went above and beyond when Luna lost her Fi GPS device and Lori tracked it down by retracing steps and finding it in the woods. I highly recommend Lori and will absolutely be partnering with her again to watch Luna for me!”
“I was in a bind; my original boarder had to cancel 2 days before my trip. Michell graciously agreed to take my dog on short notice and saved the day. She was courteous and professional.”
“We’ve never tried Rover before, and as new MA residents navigating our way, our neighbor recommended Akhil to us for Beau’s boarding needs. He was so frightened at his last doggie daycare, but we decided to give them a try. Beau was having the time of his life! I could tell from all the pictures and videos they’ve sent to us. I felt secure knowing that my Beau was in good hands while I was away for a short time. He received all the love, brush, and cuddles. I could just tell because he was so relaxed when I took him back home with me. Thank you, Akhil and family, for letting Beau be a part of your family!”
“10/10! When I drop off my pup with Valeri, I know he will be happy. He's become best friend with Valeri's dog, Lexi, and as soon as we pull up to her house he is excited to play. Valeri is great about updating me, both in terms of sending cute photos as well as letting me know about any behavioral changes she picks up on. I deeply appreciate this care and attention to detail!”
“Martha has taken care of Oli several times and it is always a relief knowing that we leave our Oli in such good hands! Martha is amazing, caring, and always goes the extra mile to make sure that Oli is having the best time. Highly highly recommend Martha!”
“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.”
“Chanel was wonderful! She not only took our little guy on short notice but she was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. She sent updates and pictures of him. He seemed very happy and content. Highly recommend her!”
“John did an amazing job watching Dakiti this weekend! He sent us photos constantly, so we always knew Dakiti was happy and well taken care of. You can tell he genuinely loves animals and enjoys what he does. Dakiti loved him, and we felt completely at ease the whole time. We'll definitely book him again and highly recommend him!”

David and his family were wonderful hosts for our cat, Momo. From start to finish, David was responsive and communicative throughout the whole process. Momo is normally a very social cat but can be skittish in new environments, and this was her first time being around young kids, but David thoughtfully created safe, comfortable spaces for her without making her feel stressed. We really appreciated the care and attention he put into making her feel at ease.
Kyli provided excellent dog boarding. Her outstanding care, clear communication, and welcoming family environment gave total peace of mind, ensuring our dog had an amazing time and felt right at home. Our dog Nia returned happy and relaxed, she even came home with a new toy that she is obsessed with :)
Mirellys is who I can say went above and beyond when taking care of my dog for 3 weeks. She treated her like her own and provided her with all the love and attention. Mirellys also provided plenty of updates via pictures and photos everyday. Needless to say I won’t hesitate in becoming a client again. Thanks Mirellys
Hyesun and Robert are fantastic. We will definitely use them again whenever our dogs need someplace to stay. They had multiple walks each day. Lots of playtime even had another dog that stayed there that our youngest dog is now best friends with. Lots of photos to keep us updated which we really appreciated. Highest recommendation for very very happy puppies.

There are 3,741 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Marblehead. About 90% of Marblehead 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.

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.
