“I couldn’t have imagined a better first experience with in-house boarding. They were incredibly understanding of my dog’s needs, and Masha loved them from the very first meeting! They even went the extra mile to ensure she was eating well and gave her treats, which I truly appreciated. I would recommend them hands down to anyone—it was such a relief to know she was in such great hands.”
“The care that Kyla provided was wonderful! From the moment Kascia arrived, she felt comfortable with Kyla, that was such a relief for us. I will definitely book again!”
“Our Bernese Mountain Dog, Greta, has has two wonderful stays with Kira and her family! I would HIGHLY recommend Kira to any dog owner. Her daily updates and pictures are such peace of mind while we were away and the smile on Greta’s face was priceless! The second time we pulled up to the house, Greta excitedly ran to their front door and I had to ask her to come back so I could say good bye! There’s no doubt that Greta will return anytime we are away. We’re so grateful for the care and love she receives with Kira.”
“This was my first time using Rover. I chose Julie based on positive reviews and am happy to add to them! Julie and Tiffany went above and beyond to ensure our dog felt safe and loved while we were away. They allowed him to play with their lab Tatum and they got along great. They sent me daily updates with pictures so we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our fur baby was having a blast!! I cannot thank both Julie and Tiffany enough and will definitely use them in the future!!”
“Dogs came home happy and well balanced! Clearly they had been well cared for and given the proper amount of exercise. Kexin and Carlos sent lots of pictures and videos giving me a lot of confidence and comfort in knowing that selecting them was the right choice! My dogs loved their large, fenced in backyard! My 2 dogs got along beautifully with their dog and cats. They even added some healthy supplements to my dogs’ food that they add to their dog’s food! Will be using them again soon!”
“Stacy was amazing! She communicated very well and was great with our lab! She has a big back yard and welcomed our dog into her home with open arms. We felt very comfortable leaving her with Stacy! 10/10 service.”
“We traveled abroad for a 2 week trip- and it was such a relief to find a reliable and welcoming sitter for our dog and our daughter’s dog while we were away. Jen kept us informed with pictures and updates on our dogs’ care - and had plenty of helpers in her children to provide that extra TLC to keep them busy and happy! We will definitely consider Jen first for future pet care needs!”
“Odie always has such a great time. He loves it there. Bethany always goes above and beyond leaving us with no worries when Odie is in her care! Thank you so much for that piece of mind.”
“Dobbs is family to me, so finding someone I trust isn't easy. Melissa exceeded every expectation. From the moment I dropped him off until I picked him up, she kept me updated with photos and messages that showed him happy, comfortable, and having a wonderful time. Seeing him playing, relaxing, and making new friends made it clear he wasn't just being watched—he was being cared for and loved. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Melissa, for treating my boy like one of your own. We'll definitely be back.”
“The Whitney family welcomed Koyuki with open hearts and treated her like a member of their own family. They took wonderful care of her and kept us constantly updated on how she was doing, which allowed us to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind. We would absolutely love to ask the Whitney family to take care of Koyuki again in the future.Thank you so much!!”
“Meli was a great sitter! She’s very friendly and attentive. She also has great communication and gave us plenty of updates. I can tell our puppy had a great time while staying with her 😊”
About: Hi, I’m Marilyn! I have been caring for animals since I was 12 years old, starting with my neighbors' cats and expanding to dogs as I gained experience. Medication & Special Care Experience With my nursing training and years of pet ownership, I am very comfortable managing special health needs. I am experienced in administering: Oral Medications (I’m a pro at using pill pockets, cheese, or whatever trick your pet prefers!) Topical Treatments Ear Drops Meet My Pack: We are a pet-loving household! When you book with me, your pet will be sharing space with my sweet fur-family. My French Bulldog: He is an 8-year-old Frenchie who is incredibly laid-back and absolutely wonderful with kids and other animals. My Two Cats: Nemo and Milo. They are energetic, sweet kittens (born in October and November 2025) who are well-adjusted to a busy, animal-friendly home. Home Environment & Boarding Accommodations I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as they do in their own home. My house is fully equipped for secure, happy stays: Fenced-In Yard: Perfect for safe, supervised playtime and quick potty breaks. Finished Basement with Baby Gates: I have a spacious, finished basement that is perfect for giving pets their own dedicated zone. If your pet isn't fully comfortable around cats, I can easily keep them separated using baby gates. Crate-Friendly: If your dog prefers to sleep in a crate or is crated for safety when unsupervised, I am happy to utilize a crate according to your exact preferences. Whether your pet needs active playtime in the yard, quiet companionship while I study, or precise medication schedules, I am here to treat them like a member of my own family. I can't wait to meet your pup or kitty! As a stay-at-home mom and part-time nursing student, nurturing and safety are second nature to me. My nursing classes only take up 2 days of my week, leaving me with wide-open availability to care for your pet the rest of the time. Because I am home so much, I can cater to all of their needs—from high-energy play sessions to specialized care routines. You can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your pet is in attentive, loving hands! My goal is to provide a "home away from home" that mirrors the safety and structure they have at your house. Home & Environment: Secure Yard: Large, fenced-in area for supervised outdoor time. Hydration: Constant access to filtered, fresh water. Socialization: My two young sons, our friendly 8-year-old Frenchie, and two cats make for a social environment, but we can easily accommodate dogs who need their own space. Crate Ready: I can utilize your pup’s crate for sleeping or breaks to maintain their existing training and comfort. My Promise: I am highly detail-oriented and will follow your specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and behavior to the letter. Your pet’s safety and your trust are my primary concerns.
“Alex and Joey have been AMAZING in their care of Bruno, our English bulldog. They have shown him (and me) the best of animal-loving open hearts in having him stay with them while I am away. He has stayed twice and is booked ahead for two more stays. They are reliable and knowledgeable, and I recommend them without any hesitation at all. Thank you to Alex and Joey for having him!”
“Emily was amazing, she took care of our puppy so well, and was so sweet with her, also helped me with my first time finding a dog sitter stress and in a very short noticed too! Emily thank you so much”
“So grateful to Ali and Chris for stepping in last minute after our sitter canceled. They took such great care of Athena, who had a wonderful time with her new doggie friends. They kept us updated the whole time and were truly a lifesaver—we’ll definitely be using them again!”
“Jacqueline and her daughter took wonderful care of my dog Molly. Molly is older and gets anxiety about being in new places. She was given lots of attention while I was away and treated like family. I received lots of pictures while I was gone. Molly even got a bath and Jacqueline did some minor grooming, which I was extremely thankful for. I highly recommend Jacqueline and plan on using her again in the future, if needed.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dog received while I was away! Lingwen was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry friend in their hands. She was so professional, friendly, and attentive, taking the time to learn my dog’s routine and preferences. During the time I was away, Lingwen kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. My dog was happy, healthy, and relaxed when I returned. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their pets!”
“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!”
“Julie was a great sitter all around! She offered a meet and greet beforehand which I really appreciated. Louie was immediately comfortable with her and her home. Julie's home was a perfect fit for us because it’s one level and she has a fenced”

Bridget has a great set up for keeping dogs safe and happy during their visit. We were really impressed by her love of the work and caring for the animals. It was our younger pups first time away and Bridget handled it great. We look forward to working with her again.
I would give Dave a really good review. Hannah seemed very comfortable there with Dave and captain. She was walked regularly and had access to the fenced in yard. Dave sent updates and pictures of the two dogs walking and hanging out. Would recommend and use again.
Paolla was absolutely incredible! She agreed to take care of Champ at the last minute and did an amazing job. Champ was overjoyed, and Paolla was thrilled to meet him and start playing with him immediately. She sent numerous pictures and kept me updated on his well-being. Her flexibility and accommodation were greatly appreciated. I will definitely be using her for future boarding needs. Thanks a bunch!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Mendon on Rover is $61.98 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,159 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mendon. 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.
89% of Mendon 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 Mendon 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 Mendon 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 Mendon.
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 Mendon 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.
