“Su was amazing and so caring with our senior French bulldog, bulldog. He was very attentive to our dog’s needs and communicated on a regular basis about her well being and food and water consumption. We felt like we had a very good idea of how she was doing while we were away on vacation. We are very grateful for his thoughtfulness- they got into a good rhythm and I think Frances really enjoyed her time with Su!”
“Our 2 dogs stayed with Nally for a week while we were away. She offered to meet us prior to the booking, which I took her up on since I don’t like to book blindly and we had never met. Her communications were always prompt and she sent pictures while we were away. She was very flexible with coordinating pick up and drop off. Both of my guys came back happy and tired! They were happy to have some other dogs to play with too. I would not hesitate to re-book with her.”
“Our dog Sherman had a great time with Tyler and Caroline! We recently moved to Boston and of course were nervous about finding the right care for our dog for a trip and all our nerves went away after meeting them. You can tell they absolutely love dogs and our dog had a blast! Will absolutely be rebooking”
“Ye and family were excellent with my senior dog Jake. They sent me updates every day and catered to Jake’s needs as an older pup (eating habits, meds, frequent potty breaks). Jake also met a few other pup friends on his visit. Would love to have Jake stay again in the future.”
“Great as usual! Left Penny for over a week, which is a long trip for her, but knew she was in great hands. Joe was responsive and flexible as always. Thanks!”
“Greta was very kind, patient, communicative and accommodating! Lots of updates and pics throughout my dogs stay. Plenty of walks and park time. He seemed genuinely happy to be there!”
“Atticia is the best. Lots of photos and great communication. Easy pick up and drop off and best thing is that Kylo (or kyky as they call him) is like family there. Thanks as always !”
“Grigorri showed that he was passionate about animals from the very beginning. He is hospitable and recognizes the needs of a pet parent because he is a good one himself.”
“Nancy was incredible!!! I felt so safe with her having my girl and she spoiled her. She kept me up to date and took amazing care of all of Petunias needs. I couldn’t be more grateful and will definitely use her again.”
“Bridget was amazing and took such good care of my golden retriever- she gave wonderful updates that made me feel like he was in loving and thoughtful hands! I’m so grateful for her care and Peanut can’t wait to stay with her again :)”
“Paula took excellent care of my dog. Echo came home happy and tired after having a weekend full of fun playing with other pups and being well cared for by Paula. She was very flexible on timings and is such a lovely friendly person. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Paula to my friend’s and we are already planning on using Paula for a two week we have coming up soon.”
“Erin took great care of my dog Nala! I left Nala in her care for nearly 3 weeks and she sent me several captioned pictures every day. It was clear that she put a lot of effort into making Nala feel comfortable and ensuring she had lots of fun during her stay. I would 100% recommend and book again!”
“Thank you so much for bandits visit! Sarah and Ben are fantastic dog sitters that were very accommodating. Bandit seemed to really love his time there and didn’t want to come home from his vacation.”
“Brooklyn watched our Sydney for a quick overnight. She was very kind and responsive. Very accommodating of our pup's schedule and needs. We felt very at ease knowing she was in good hands”
“Grace & Andrew were fantastic. They were super responsive and accommodating for my last second boarding request, and they’re SO sweet! They took Great care of Chance and I would absolutely use them again.”
“Kim treats my dog Ziggy with care and affection - and her 2 dogs are perfect companions/company for Ziggy to play with. She really understands the needs of dogs and I feel 100% comfortable with her care. I also look forward to receiving her cute, playful photos with colorful captioning..”

Dana was incredible. We had a last‑minute trip come up, and he didn’t hesitate to take in Zeus, our 11‑year‑old boy, with so much care and kindness. He sent daily updates and photos, and it was obvious in every single one that Zeus felt comfortable, happy, and completely at ease. Zeus is older and can be particular, but Dana handled everything beautifully. When we picked Zeus up, he was relaxed, content, and honestly a little exhausted from all the fun he had. That told us everything we needed to know about the level of attention and affection he received. We’re so grateful for Dana’s flexibility, communication, and genuine love for animals. We’ll absolutely book with him again.
Caroline, her dog Butterscotch, and their family took great care of my dog Bao Bao. He’s a shy, slightly nervous fellow and it was his first time boarding without his late big sister, but he had a lovely time. Caroline sent photos and updates daily. I’m really glad Bao got to stay with a nice family with a dog and a yard instead of some mass boarding setup. We will definitely check with Caroline before any other sitters in the future!
We never feel nervous about going away when our dogs are staying with Jess. She is absolutely wonderful! Jess is so caring and nurturing and treats our dogs as if they were her own. They truly become part of her family! Also, Jess is careful to follow any notes I send and makes sure they get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, and attention while we are away. She will update you often, but now that we have entrusted our dogs with her so many times, I no longer feel the need for frequent updates because I know they are in the very best hands. Her home has truly become our dogs' "home away from home," and I really couldn't recommend her more highly!
Jason took excellent care of Nate while we were gone to NY. Nate is sensitive to fireworks and can get anxious with new people. He also gets up a bit early in morning. He took care of all his needs and also developed a close bond with him. I really appreciate all his efforts in boarding him and making him comfortable like his second home.
IG was absolutely amazing with my Juju, her attention to detail was next to none. I felt carried along at every turn and for the anxiety I had because my bub was injured. So I say if you need a sitter with great attention to detail and who love animals, IG it your person. Thank you for caring for my bubs IG. I will book again and I highly recommend
Azizah is truly one of a kind! She’s been Chico’s babysitter for the past four years, and I honestly couldn’t imagine trusting anyone more. Chico absolutely adores her, and it’s clear she loves and cares for him as if he were her own. The peace of mind I have whenever I leave the state is priceless. Knowing Chico is safe, happy, and receiving the same love, attention, and care that I give him makes all the difference. That’s something you simply can’t put a price on. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have found Azizah. She’s reliable, compassionate, and genuinely exceptional. Thank you, Azizah, for everything you do and for loving Chico so well. We appreciate you more than words can say. See you soon!!
Highly recommend Megan! She made the whole process so seamless: scheduling and coordinating with her was an absolute breeze. She was super communicative the entire time and kept my mind at ease with tons of cute picture updates. Will definitely book with her again!!!
Fionna was extremely communicative and caring. Our dog chuy had a hot spot when we dropped him off and she made sure to look after it and keep us updated on the progress. She gave Chu plenty of walks and welcomed him into her home as one of her own. Her dog Oyster is very cute and got along with Chuy! Would definitely recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Mattapan on Rover is $60 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 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 4,273 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Mattapan. About 90% of Mattapan 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.
