“I knew Budi would enjoy staying with Emily & Rob right off the bat (during our "meet & greet"). Sure, Budi was so sad when I left, but this couple soon put Budi at ease with the way they treated her. She may not have barked at all, in fact they didn't hear her bark until I showed up to get her, but they kept her comfortable, treated her very well & appropriately & I'm sure even talked to her to keep her going. It's for sure I'll book with them again!!! Bonnie & Budi”
“Yesika was awesome with Denver! She stepped in when I had to book last minute, sent pictures of Denver every day, and he couldn't have been happier and more tired from all the fun when I picked him up! Will definitely book again!”
“Zelun took fantastic care of our dog for over a week during Thanksgiving! Our dog usually takes a few days to perk up and get used to her new situation, but she settled in after the first night! Zelun sent daily pictures and videos from walks and afternoon sun naps, and our dog looked sooooo happy in every picture. Would 10/10 recommend.”
“Guillermo was awesome. He was flexible with our drop off and pick up times, sent us plenty of updates and our pup came home exhausted from his stay (the best possible outcome!). I would totally book with him again.”
“Belinda was wonderful with our furbaby and sent us an update each day. She was very accessible by text and easy to communicate with. Our dog got along well with her dog, Sloane, who is a sweetie. Also, she has the perfect fenced in yard for the dogs to play! We will certainly work with Belinda again!”
“Patrick did an outstanding job taking care of my dog, Grace Warrior. Grace is a 94 lbs bundle of energy, and Patrick managed her needs perfectly. He was professional, attentive, and clearly experienced with handling large dogs. Grace came back happy and well-cared for, and I could tell she enjoyed her time with him. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. I highly recommend Patrick to anyone looking for a trustworthy and capable pet sitter. Thank you, Patrick, for your excellent care!”
“Rob took great care of our girl!! Communication and meetup all smooth. Rob sent updates and pics, which we loved. Grateful she was in good hands and made new friends! 😊”
“Our Aussie is sweet but can be a bit high maintenance and they always do such a phenomenal job with her! Athena always gets very excited to go back for boarding.”
“Victoria is AMAZING!☺️ by far the best Rover sitter we have used and we will definitely be booking her again and again! She watched our 2 dachshunds (one is 5 years old and the other is a 10 month old puppy) and she did such an amazing job with both of them. She is super bubbly, personal, and loving to the dogs she takes care of. She took our dogs to the dog park every day and sent us tons of picture updates. I felt very safe, comfortable and informed the entire time she watched them. We also had some last minute drop off and pick up time changes and Victoria was super accommodating and nice about it. 10/10 would recommend her. Thank you Victoria ???”
“Rose was amazing!! She sent many updates and photos. I get worrried leaving my girl but Rose made me realize she was in great hands. Even sent home doggy treats for Christmas. My girl had a great time and Rose is now my go to!!! Thank you”
“Andrea took great care of Maybelle! She sent lots of updates and photos and set my mind at ease. She took her on a couple of outings and lots of walks. We'll definitely book with Andrea again!”
“Liz & Rodrigo are incredible people, with an incredible family full of love to give! We were a bit nervous having someone board our newly adopted rescue Beagle, but they did an amazing job! They sent so many updates and photos while I was gone, I never once had to worry how they were doing! They were both accommodating of both our pup’s needs and I can tell our pups would love to go back whenever we need a sitter!”
“Really provided the best activity for my pup’s energetic needs and looked after her anxious self. Grateful for the ways they took extra care of my rescue. Was communicative and sent photo updates consistently. Would definitely seek out again and recommend.”
“★★★★★ Maia was wonderful with Chester and incredibly accommodating when my plans changed unexpectedly. She communicated clearly, kept me updated, and was calm and attentive with him throughout his stay. Chester can be shy in a new environment and needs to remain securely leashed outdoors, and Maia handled all of that thoughtfully and responsibly. She was also very flexible with pickup timing, which helped me tremendously during a stressful move. I would absolutely trust her with Chester again and highly recommend her.”
“Emily was great with our dog Reggie while we were away for a few days. She was quick to respond, flexible on timing, handled his medication schedule, and gave frequent updates. Would recommend her and use her again!”
“Luz was fantastic. She took great care of Baxter while we were gone for the week. She was always very responsive and sent great pictures and video of Baxter to us every day. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Geraldine and her family were lovely. I felt totally safe leaving my dog with them over Christmas break. They sent photos of Monza snuggling in blankets and looking generally comfortable. They were super accommodating when I picked up my dog a day early. They were actually really sad to see him go. I would totally use Geraldine again.”

Mallory has just been a perfect sitter for our sometimes needy and anxious pup. She is very communicative and professional. We even goofed on pick up time and forgot food/water bowls once, and Mallory was gracious and accommodating. She takes great care of our pup so much so we don’t worry a bit while away, even when gone for a long weekend. Easy 5 stars!
We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our dog, Berlin. Patrick met with us beforehand so we could see exactly where Berlin would be staying, which immediately put us at ease. During the stay, he sent frequent updates with photos and videos — it was so clear that Berlin was having a vacation of his own! We could travel without any worry knowing he was in such good hands. I'd highly recommend Patrick to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. We'll definitely be booking with him again!
My pup Rocco has stayed with Linda multiple times since I got him a year and a half ago. He can take a day or so to settle and she is so patient and caring with him. She goes above and beyond to make sure he feels at home and by the time I pick him up, he doesn’t want to leave! I am so thankful for Linda and all she does for my little anxious guy!
Rob was wonderful with my Chihuahua mix Pato. The best way I can describe how comfortable and cared for Pato felt with Rob and his family is this: when I came to pick him up, Pato went over to Rob to say goodbye before we left. That told me everything I needed to know. He clearly formed a bond with Rob and felt at home there. I'm very grateful for the care he received over the two weeks he was there. And I got a great variety of photos too :}

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Medford on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,039 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Medford. 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.
92% of Medford 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 Medford 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 Medford 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 Medford.
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 Medford 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.
