“Aspen took great care of our small dog during our 2 week international vacation. She made sure to give us daily updates with photos and was great with communication despite the time difference. Aspen kept on our dogs natural schedule and made sure she had frequent walks and potty breaks. Our dog also enjoyed having the company of Aspen’s dog, Satsu :)”

“We just love Rebeca and her whole family! They all pitch in and take care of the dogs that stay with them and we have a VERY active dog so it is so good for her to have lots of people to play with while we’re away. :) I can tell Cici always has the best time with them and we don’t have to worry about her at all while on vacation. We got the most gorgeous pics of her to see all the fun walks she was taking and fun games she was playing with their daughter. And at the end of the stay their daughter gave her a little Halloween goody bag with the CUTEST note talking about her favorite moment of Cici’s stay with her. It’s just so sweet you can see how much they care about your dog when they are with them. Cici will for sure be back over and over again! 🥰”

“Brooklynn and Adam are amazing!! My dog is anxious and leash reactive, but he had no problems staying with Brooklynn. She made sure to walk him in quiet areas during less busy times, and her home is quiet and peaceful, which I'm sure helped Monty a ton. She had no problem giving him two different medications every morning, and he got so much love all weekend. We got so many pictures of Monty snuggling with Brooklynn and Adam - so cute! It was like he went to the spa for the weekend - we would love for her to watch Monty again!”

This was my first time boarding my cats but Mia put me at ease right away. She offered an initial call to go over care instructions and anything to be aware of. She was incredibly understanding of my cats' nervousness in a new environment and gave them the patience and space to adjust. She was also very flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, which made logistics easy. Throughout the weekend, she sent multiple updates, so I never had to wonder how they were doing. I’d happily book Mia again and recommend her to other cat parents who are looking to board their kitties.

This was our first time using Rover, as Nia (our 2yo Shihtzu) has only ever been left with close family friends so I was definitely a bit nervous! But Ashley and her whole family were so welcoming and really helped Nia feel comfortable right away. Ashley sent regular photo and video updates that put my mind completely at ease—you could tell just by looking at her how happy she was. Ashley’s two dogs were also wonderful, which was huge for us since Nia isn't super socialized yet. She acclimated so fast and had the best time. We’re already looking forward to her next stay with Ashley and her new puppy friends!

Isabelle was so great with Sudo. She sent us ongoing updates and was really attentive to all of his quirks. This is the second time she’s watched over Sudo and he wagged his tail when he saw her and gave her a goodbye kiss when he left. We highly recommend Isabelle and would reach out again when we travel!

Amanda is the best and most trusted dog sitter!! I have complete faith in her competency with our dog. She takes the time to really get to know every dog she cares for to cater to their needs, preferences, and favorite activities. Our dog loves Amanda! I know that when we drop her off, she will be safe, comfortable, and happy. It makes our vacations stress-free, knowing our pup is in amazing hands!

This was our first time using River and we hit the jackpot! Elizabeth and Rodrigo and their sweet family are wonderful. So kind and attentive to our dogs. Loved the pictures while our girls were in their care. This was the first time our dogs stayed at someone’s home without us there and they were so calm and relaxed when I picked them up. That speaks volumes to how well they were cared for. We will definitely reach out again in the future.

It was my dogs first time without us and Linda made me feel so comfortable about the whole thing. She’s very thorough in making sure he would be safe during his stay with her. We got updated throughout which also made me feel much better being without him. When we picked him up, I don’t think he wanted to leave! She is the perfect sitter for him. I already scheduled his next sleep over. Couldn’t recommend her more.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Medford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Medford is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $98 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 4,137 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Medford. About 90% of Medford 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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.
