“We had such a great experience leaving our little Luna with Jacob and Willie (his friendly dog!). Jacob was super communicative with little reassuring updates and made sure to provide a cozy and comfortable space for her to stay while we were on vacation. Were really grateful for the experience and would absolutely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for someone to care for their pup!”
“Simply amazing—I recommend them wholeheartedly. She was attentive from the very first contact. We were quite apprehensive since it was Daisy's first time with a sitter, but they were very patient, and Daisy felt right at home! It is a healthy and safe environment. I will definitely contact her again if the need arises. We loved the care she received, and Daisy loved everything! Thank you.”
“Calvin, our boxer, stayed overnight at Camp Puggle on 7/5/14. He truly enjoyed being able to go out into the backyard to run and play with the other dogs that were staying there. Alison took excellent care of our baby (this was his first stay away from home). Alison and her husband couldn't have been more loving with Calvin. We appreciated the extra care that was given to him. We would definitely recommend Camp Puggle for other "humans" looking for a great place to leave their furry babies. Diane ”
“Our puppy LOVES Jodie and fam, she’s always so excited when she sees them during drop off. She always comes back to us happy and healthy and tired from playing so much! We are so happy to have such a wonderful sitter for our baby 💕”
“We left my pug and my daughter's golden with Brook for a week. She was very good about letting us know daily how they were doing. She had a welcoming home and her kids seemed good with the dogs. She seemed responsible and trustworthy.”
“Samantha and her family were awesome taking care of our Benny. We appreciated the updates and pictures we received while away. Will certainly use her services again for future travel plans!”
“Lindsey was amazing, this was the first time leaving our dog and using this app so we were nervous to say the least. Lindsey provided pictures and videos the whole weekend we were gone along with texts saying how our dog was doing. I would definitely recommend Lindsey again and if we ever need another sitter for our dog we will be requesting her.”
“Jessica and her family were amazing caretakers for our 6 month-old Golden Retriever, Ollie! During his stay, Jessica sent me continual updates, photos and videos of Ollie enjoying walks, playing with her own dogs, watching Sunday football, and having the best time! I would highly recommend Jessica and look forward to Ollie staying with her again soon!!”
About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently working 6:30am-12pm, M-F. I'm available for drop-in visits any day of the week, after 1pm and on the weekends. I can house sit during the week as long as your pet doesn't mind an early morning! 🙂. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.
“Alberta took incredible care of our sweet hamster while we went away for a weekend! She has a professional room set up for all boarding animals (even nicer than a vet boarding facility!) and sent us pictures / updates throughout our hamster's stay. Right when you meet Alberta you can tell that she is an animal lover, and is just the kind of person that you would entrust with the care of your furry friend! We will definitely be recommending Alberta to our friends in Boston, and will look to her services when we need someone to care for our pets in the future!”
“Salish is what every dog owner hopes to find. A competent, caring, dog sitter. Her little daughter is a delight and Oscar enjoyed her company. We've already booked her for our camping trip in October after just having her sit our Yorkie this Memorial Day weekend. Highly recommended.”
“This was our first time using this service, and we were initially so nervous about leaving Hiro for five days. Andrea and Izabella tag-teamed to care for him, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Hiro has a quirky eating routine—he gets fed by an automatic feeder at 2:30 a.m.—and when the system had to be reset, Andrea and Izabella even offered to set an alarm to feed him manually. That gesture alone meant so much to us, even though we later resolved it. We received daily photo updates, and it was heartwarming to see Hiro mingling for the first time—especially as they took great care in slowly introducing him to his “long-lost brothers.” Knowing he was so well looked after gave us true peace of mind. We’re already planning another longer trip in July and will definitely be booking their services again. Thank you both so much for taking such great care of Hiro!”
“Donna was AMAZING. We were so nervous, it was our 1 year old puppy’s first time away from us and Donna was just fantastic. We got daily photos and updates and she was so responsive. Our dog had a total blast and we were so at ease.”
“Cherie was a warm and gracious host to our dog! She welcomed our dog in and made sure she was comfortable in her home, and dispensed medicine as well. Thank you Cherie!!”
“Lanie had an amazing time with Susan and came back super tired from a day of playing with her two golden retrievers. We couldn’t have hoped for a better experience for leaving her with someone overnight!”
“Millie appears to have enjoy her time with Robert. He seems to care very much for the dogs in his care. I lover the personal attention and photographs he shared throughout the day while tending Millie. I will be using Robert going foward when needing to board my babe.”
“I felt so comfortable having Mikayla & Alen watch my puppy. They are so knowledgeable as dog owners and really catered to her needs. Puppies can be hard but they made sure she was happy and comfortable and sent me pics! I got a full rundown of how everything went when I was away which made me feel really good, and I’m sure they will see Leyla again. :)”

“Nancy and her husband are super nice and easy to work with. They truly took care of our dog Maya as if she was their own pet. Nancy was always responsive and sent us frequent updates and beautiful pictures of our baby. We’re so grateful for the love and attention they gave to our Maya. We cannot recommend them enough!!!”

Fiona really seemed to enjoy the time that she spent with Jacob and Wally and she seemed contented and happy in all the pictures that Jacob sent me during her stay. Fiona seemed very happy to socialize with Wally and I know that she must have enjoyed being able to run around in the fenced in yard. Unfortunately I am not in a living situation where Fiona is not able to run freely at this time but she used to enjoy being able to run in the fenced in back yard of the previous place that we lived so I am sure that she was in seventh heaven being able to run freely at Jacob’s house. I would certainly use Jacob again to provide care for Fiona when the need arises.
We had such a great experience leaving our little Luna with Jacob and Willie (his friendly dog!). Jacob was super communicative with little reassuring updates and made sure to provide a cozy and comfortable space for her to stay while we were on vacation.

Henry always has the BEST time with Laura. I got so many pictures of him doing his visit, and he was so happy and comfortable for his stay. Laura is my go to sitter whenever I need someone to watch Henry, and I know he's being loved on and cared for like a part of the family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Milford is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $44 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 803 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Milford. 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.
96% of sitters in Milford 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 Milford 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 Milford.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Milford 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 NH 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.
