“Philip and Chelsea were amazing with our dog Cooper! We were a little nervous, since this was Cooper’s first time away from us. Though Cooper was nervous at first he warmed right up to Philip and Chelsea and the other dogs that were there. We loved the pictures and updates we got about Cooper’s visit. I highly recommend having Philip and Chelsea watch your dog. They are great with dogs, have an amazing space for the dogs to play and take such good care of them. I will be booking them again whenever I need someone to watch Cooper while we are gone.”
About: I have had quite a bit of experience with pet care because I’ve had my own dog for nearly 17 years. I trained her to be very well behaved and she was very healthy up until she passed due to old age. I like to think she lived that long because of the great care and love I have given her. This includes walking her many times a day, keeping her on a healthy diet by making her homemade food everyday, brushing her teeth/clipping her nails, giving her medication when needed, and giving her endless cuddles and love. I know that this experience makes me the perfect candidate and friend to your baby! I have also cared for many other dogs over the years which has helped me grow as a pet sitter. I have always loved dogs and being able to spend time with them while making money is a dream come true to me! In order for me to care for your pets, I will take them on plenty of walks, play outside, teach tricks, bathing/teeth/nail care, and lots of cuddles I work full time at a company in Boston! I go in a couple times a week but have a lot of flexibility to work from home as needed. Because I am only in office 1 or 2 days per week, I have a ton of flexibility and availability to care for your pet. My schedule can be very flexible which is super helpful when boarding pups! In order for me to care for your pup, I will take them on plenty of walks, play outside, go to nearby dog parks, teach them tricks, bathing/teeth/nail care, and of course lots of cuddles and kisses!
“Yvonne and her family took fantastic care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. We received regular frequent updates with pictures that gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“I was very nervous leaving Rox with a “stranger” met w Pilar and she put me at ease. She provided plenty of pictures and updates while we were away and that put me at ease. If the chance to go away again occurs and she is available I would definitely reach out to her. She treated Rox like the princess she is, I am very thankful for her kindness and understanding.”
“Would not hesitate to bring our pup to Briana, ever. She takes good care of him and sends updates along the way to put your mind at ease. Highly recommend. Thanks Briana!”
“Nancy took amazing care of our dogs for almost 2 weeks while we were away in Europe. She communicated to us daily with photos to match her captions, letting us know they were doing well (they are old and not in the best of health). We were so grateful she could take them a month before we were to leave (we had a family emergency so needed a back up plan) especially during the holiday season! She was so thoughtful to help us out and go to the store when we neglected to pack their doggie treats. We highly recommend Nancy - she treated our dogs as if they were her own! ❤️”
“Our 9 month old pup had a great stay with Julie! Julie was wonderful with her -- patient and kind and understanding of our pup's needs. Our dog loved playing in the backyard and snuggling in for the night. We enjoyed receiving photos and updates from Julie. Highly recommend!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with multiple family dogs taught me early on that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and quirks—and I love getting to know them all. In addition to being a lifelong dog lover, I spent four years working as a professional dog bather at PetSmart, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. That experience helped me become comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience administering medications, including oral medications and insulin injections, so you can feel confident that your pet's health needs will be carefully managed while they're in my care. Whether your dog is looking for a walking buddy, a cuddle companion, or someone to stick to their routine while you're away, I'll treat them with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own pets. Currently open to boarding throughout the year, for dogs able to stay indoors for 8 hours. Weekday Dog walking and dog day care available through beginning of August. I have no other pets in the home! I have a single family ranch style home with a yard. I am also within walking distance from a rail trail. I do also enjoy hiking and would be able to take your pets on wooded adventures!
“Peter was an amazing host! Our pup was very well taken care of. We received pictures throughout the week giving updates on how she was doing. She came back home happy which hasn't always been the case with boarding her. Will absolutely use Peter again in the future. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a loving home for their pet!”
“Our dog Baily had such a great time with Maeve that we didn’t think he would want to leave. Maeve is very conscientious to each individual dog’s needs (she takes great note!). I would highly recommend anyone to have their dog stay with Maeve. She’s great”
“Bridget was great! We appreciated the updates and photos while we were away—they gave us complete confidence that Willow was in excellent hands. Bridget was a prompt and clear communicator, and her attentiveness to our dog’s needs was genuinely appreciated. We would be delighted to work with her again!”
“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!”
“Julia and Hugo were amazing sitters! They gave daily updates and sent photos/videos as well. They really eased our nerves as it was our dog’s first time staying with them. She loved her stay!”
“Thank you so much, Michiko and Cliff, for taking such incredible care of our Suki while we were away. Your love, patience, understanding, and daily updates made all the difference and gave us complete peace of mind. We are truly grateful for everything you did, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 🙏🐾”
“Mliss was amazing! The pre-stay meeting went great. Throughout the stay, Mliss sent many updates and pictures. Looks like Bella had a great time. Would highly recommend.”
“Jennifer took such good care of Archie and his special medical needs. He did not seem stressed at all. She sent me updates multiple times daily. I would highly recommend her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Maynard
Xiaoxue was a life saver. My wife and I are traveling and she fell and broke her hip. So I needed someone right away to help look after our dog. Xiaoxue accommodated us right away. And she was flexible when we needed help longer than we originally expected. She gave our dog good walks and lots of loving. And she kept in touch with pictures to let us know how he was doing. We would absolutely recommend her as a great caretaker!
Megan was absolutely outstanding! She watched our 15 year old dog for 12 days while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for better care. She sent lots of photos and updates, gave all of his medications right on schedule, and was very responsive and responsible throughout. The biggest testament to how comfortable Riley was is that he had no accidents or diarrhea during his stay—something that usually happens when he's anxious or unhappy. It was clear he felt safe and loved. Her kids were also so sweet and gentle with him. We would trust Megan with Riley again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her!
Pilar is the best. Our little pomapoo, Tater, is so excited when he gets to her house, he doesn’t even look back at us when we drop him off. She takes great care of him and he loves her so much that he stays right beside her all throughout the day. You will not be disappointed if you drop your pup off with Pilar.

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.
92% of Maynard 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 Maynard 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 Maynard 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 Maynard.
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 Maynard 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.
