“Zwany & Leandro made me feel so great about leaving my dog for the weekend. They set up time to meet beforehand, so we could see how she would react around their dog. Zwany also asked me so many questions about my dog’s temperament, commands she knows, etc. I have only ever used boarding facilities in the past, but my dog absolutely loved staying with Zwany & Leandro! She spent so much time with people, and from the pictures they sent, I could tell she had a blast! I highly recommend.”

“They did such a great job that I was genuinely afraid my dog would not want to go back home with me. For context, my dog is like a son to me, so I worry a lot whenever I'm away. This time, there was no need. I got detailed reports each day of how he was doing along with tons of pictures, which I really, really appreciated. They took him on longs walks, and even apple picking. I could tell he had a great time. Thank you so much for everything! I'll make sure to reach out again for our next vacation.”

Cameron is so spectacular I confess we are tempted to gate keep him 😂 But of course we'd never dream of it. He's reliable, kind, patient, and a delight to work with. My dog comes home so happy after a stint with Cameron and his pup. We'll be booking with him for as long as he's taking bookings :)

My cat is great with drop in visits but this is the first time I’ve had to leave him with a boarder so I was definitely anxious, especially for a month apart! Mia went above and beyond to make sure the transition was smooth. She loved and cared for him as if he was her own cat. Lovely photos and updates, attentive, thoughtful, and great communication. World class service, don’t hesitate to book with her!

My dog Sputnik did great with Sophia! He came back happy and very clearly well cared for, and her cat Sushi was a sweet new friend for him. In addition, Sophia was really accommodating to our schedule when we needed some flexibility surrounding drop off and pick up, she was incredibly responsive and kind. I will book with Sophia again in a heartbeat!!

After our original sitter had to cancel - Hunter and her partner graciously agreed to watch Ralph while we were away for a week. Having watched Ralph once before, Hunter and her partner are truly exceptional sitters. Taking Ralph in like one of their own, sending daily photos and updates, and just overall making sure Ralph got the best treatment makes them the best. I can’t recommend them enough!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Medford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Medford on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of September 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 4,091 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 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.
