“We booked 2nd time with Nalix and had great experience again. Nalix sent updates and pics everyday, and our little Shitzu got the best care and including walks in the park and play time. Highly recommended!”
“Yick was communicative, caring, and so responsible with our hollie. They went out of their way to handle her pick up and drop offs and made the whole travel plan work out completely without any stress.”
“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!”
“Sarah and her family went above and beyond durin our senior dog’s recent stay. From daily walks and snuggles to administering medication and a special diet, Sarah made us feel comfortable leaving our pup. We so appreciated the daily videos and pictures and the opportunity to meet with Sarah beforehand. And it was no problem when she had to refill one of our dogs medications. Truly heroic! Thank you, thank you, for everything! Buddy loved his stay with you!”
“Sunil was quick to respond when we had another sitter suddenly cancel. She has taken very special care of our pup as she has recovered from a string inflamation. We were worried to leave her for a trip we could t cancel and we felt very relieved to leave her with Sunil. She sent us videos and photos everyday and you can clearly tell she is carefully taking care and listening to Escarcha. She went above and beyond.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing! She was easy to coordinate with, provided plenty of updates (including some really adorable photos), and made our time away stress free because we knew our dog was in great hands!”
“Second time booking and very satisfied! They are great with ginger and she loves staying with them. Loved the creative updates! Thank you for taking care of ginger”
“Lee and family were amazing with our dog! Great communication and he was very comfortable with them. We already have our next stay scheduled! Highly recommend. Thanks for taking such good care of him!”
“Steven was phenomenal. He sent us daily updates and photos, and it was clear Carly felt completely at home. She came back happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. Truly an exceptional experience.”
“Shuhua helped us out in a pinch last minute to board our dog same night, and we are so happy with the attentiveness shown - it doesn't get much better for our shy and sleepy greyhound girlie than an elevator to avoid the scary stairs, a soft couch, lovingly-shared boiled chicken and peeled apples, and a fresh new green space she gets to sniff around. We've already booked a second day due to our needs, and will absolutely reach out again in the future if needed! So glad to establish a connection to a nearby sitter that is so comfortable for our pet.”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Rebecca and Jeanette! Their home is warm and welcoming, and they are equal parts kind and conscientious canine caregivers. We are so grateful to have found them.”
“Arianna is awesome. She is very caring and very reliable. She took great care of Leo who is in need of medications for his arthritis. Arianna exceeded my expectations!”
“Betsy was a great sitter - very thorough and careful in getting to know my dog’s preferences and letting him see her very nice home and yard! Easy to communicate with and my pup seemed super happy :)”
“Calvin is the best pet sitter, truly! I received so many pics and updates throughout the weekend. I genuinely felt very safe leaving my girl with him over the weekend. I couldn’t recommend him enough and will definitely get in touch the next time we need a sitter!!”
“Natalie is phenomenal!!! She took such great care of Teddy. Her communication was outstanding, sending pictures and texts throughout the day. Such a sweet and kind person that you will feel so comfortable leaving your dog with.”
“Lorena was great with our little puppy! She gave lots of updates and was very patient when he had a few accidents indoors! Would absolutely trust her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Needham Heights
Sana took fantastic care of our dog, Toby! Since this was Toby's first stay with her, I really appreciated how she took the time to ask about his routine. She provided wonderful daily updates and kept communication smooth throughout. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!
I’d give Su 100 stars if I could! My two dogs stayed with him while I was visiting my sister, and he took such good care of them and provided detailed updates with information and photos about how they were doing. They loved utilizing his fully fenced backyard and going for walks with him. I had full peace of mind when they were with him, and couldn’t recommend him more!

There are 4,455 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Needham Heights. About 90% of Needham Heights 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 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.
