“Catherine is literally the BEST!! My dog Theo, loves staying at her house. Catherine provides a clean & safe environment while providing supervision. She sends pictures (as many as you’d like) and videos to ease your mind. Theo is my fur-baby so to know he is in good hands while I’m away is such a blessing. Catherine is hands down my “go to” for Theo if I am in need of a dog sitter. Thank you again, Catherine ?”
“Korin watched Hunter our King Charles Cavalier over this weekend. We were without a sitter at the last minute. Korin was happy to save our weekend plans by accommodating us. She took great care of Hunter and kept us updated throughout the weekend. I highly recommend Korin for all your pet sitting needs.”
“Having just moved to Long Island, my husband and I were in search of a reliable dog sitter for our dog, Kilo. We always had friends watch him in Miami, and were a bit nervous leaving Kilo with a stranger for 3 nights. Initially, we checked out some kennels in the area, and found them quite depressing. That led us to look on Rover, and Daniel's profile came up first. I reached out to Daniel to inquire about booking with him, and within minutes Daniel had responded and we set up a meet and greet for later that night. I stopped by with Kilo to see Daniel's set up/house. I could immediately tell that he was a dog person and was going to treat my dog as his own! I was nervous because Kilo can be a little territorial with other large males, but Daniel reassured me that everything would be fine. I dropped Kilo off later that week for his stay with Daniel and his family. Daniel sent pictures of Kilo playing outside and responded to any questions/concerns I had about Kilo during his stay. I felt totally confident that my dog was in good hands at his house. Daniel and his family will definitely be my dog people on the island! I absolutely recommend their services. I've already booked Kilo's next stay, and I also look forward to dropping Kilo off every once in a while for day care services just so he can run around and play with other dogs in a safe environment!”
“Ashley was fantastic. Extremely conscientious, sent pictures and text updates throughout our pooch's vacation there, and really worked with us on timing and logistics. Very reliable, and would choose Ashley again in a heartbeat.”
“This was our first time using Rover. I was very reluctant to use a person I did not know, or friends didn't know. However, I am so glad I took the chance with a 5 day/overnight in Sarah's home. It's a relief she only takes one animal at a time since our dog doesn't like other dogs. At the meet and greet, Sarah asked many questions to get a feel for Milo (eating & bathroom habits, walking, sleeping habits etc...) To start, her home is absolutely immaculate. I received a daily update with pictures on how our dog was adjusting & doing overall. Milo was displaying some quirky behaviors which Sarah reported right away & thought was cute/funny. She was very accepting, flexible in many ways, and an absolute delight to talk with. It is apparent she is a dog lover! Upon pick up, Milo was happy and all his belongings were packed & ready to go. We plan on using Sarah again for our next trip, if she's available.”
“My Scrappy (who is a 2 year old Pomeranian/ Poodle Mix male) stayed with Maria, Eric, and Penny (their fur baby girl) for 12 days. Scrappy and Penny had a meet and greet prior to booking. They hit it off. They were like long lost loves. Scrappy is one to be pretty scrappy at times, so I had to check the fence line because he likes to try to dig. They have a very secure backyard that made me feel comfortable to leave him there too. Maria said she would be out there with them, which made me feel better. But the fence was very secure anyway. Maria sent me photos and videos daily of Scrappy and Penny playing in the snowy backyard, napping together, and enjoying each other’s company. Scrappy seemed very happy and content staying with the family. Unfortunately, Scrappy had to say farewell to Penny for now. When I picked him up there was another fur friend there too, who was an elderly regular. He seemed like a sweetheart too. It was nice to see Scrappy had so many few friends. Maria’s sending us pictures and videos made me smile while we were away. It made me feel like he was doing well and he was happy and it provided me with a great sense of comfort to know he was being well taken care of. I would recommend Maria and her family for pet sitting. Maria herself was very nice and welcoming to me and my family. Eric seemed very pleasant and sweet and Penny was a beautiful and lovable dog, whom I wanted to bring home with us. Lol. Glad we picked them for Scrappy. Thank you Maria, Eric and Penny!!! All the best, Victoria, Tom and Scrappy”

“This was Chance’s second time stay with Gabby and I could tell he felt like he was at home! From the second we walked into her home on the night I dropped him off he was so happy. And again, Gabby sent me daily updates to let me know how everything was going!”

“It was our first time leaving Canela with a sitter and the experience couldn't be better... We will definitely be using Carlos and Natalia's service again.”
“Megan and her family did a fantastic job taking care of my senior dog. She sent pictures daily, was honest about when Bailey didn’t finish a meal, and didn’t mind answering any questions I had. She made Bailey feel comfortable and loved which was so important to me. Thank you Megan!”
“Natalia recently watched our two (2) dogs and they came back very tired which, to me, is the result of a VERY good time! She walked them, played with them and sent daily photos. I needed someone last minute to watch our dogs and Natalia stepped right in. We are so thankful to Natalia for the constant communication of our dogs and knowing they were very loved, while we were away. Thank you, Natalia!”

“Literally a staycation for our pup. Vanessa went above and beyond with everything !! We received pics and updates daily which put us at ease on vacation. A real home away from home for any dog lucky enough to get time with their family!”
“10⭐️ Could not rate any higher! Lindsay took exceptional care of our dog Keegan for a week! She was very attentive to him, took him for frequent walks, gave us regular updates and formed a real bond with him that made him feel safe! Keegan will be back to hang out with Lindsay soon!”
“Kelly could not have been more communicative and kind. She took such good care of our pup, and he came home exhausted (which is what we hoped for since he’s so high energy). She kept us up to date on all necessary things during our pups stay, and send videos and pictures too. We will definitely consider booking again in the future!”
“Giana took such good care of my dog - he's currently passed out and snoring, which I feel he will be doing all week! He loved her dogs and played so well with them. She also sent a ton of pictures and even did a cute photo shoot!! I am so happy we found her!”
“Excellent substitute fur parents. Best compliment we can give is that we will use them again any and every time we need to ……they took wonderful care of our pups!”

Fantastic experience! Jinay was punctual, professional, and excellent with my girl Wren I loved getting the updates and photos. I was nervous about leaving Wren because she can be anxious. Jinay was patient, gentle, and incredibly understanding. She took the time to make Wren feel safe and comfortable. I am so grateful for her care and will definitely use her again! Five Stars!
Daniel did a great job of taking care of our dog Rocky while we were away. I was a little anxious about leaving him but felt much better after our Meet and Greet. He was gentle and patient with my shy guy and it put us at ease. He sent videos of Rocky daily and accommodated our apprehension about having Rocky around other dogs. I definitely recommend Daniel for your pet sitting needs.

Michala and her family were awesome start to finish! She communicated right away, was very pleasant to speak with and the pups were very well cared for, came home tired and happy! Can't ask for anything more, I whole heartedly recommend Michala to care for your fur children! Happy Holidays!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Medford is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $64 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.
As of October 2026, there are 1,177 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Medford can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Medford home-away-from-home, 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 , 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 .
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 NY 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.
