“Mike did an excellent job watching over our dog and sending me updates while we were away on vacation. He made us feel very comfortable leaving a family member behind and not worrying about if they would be ok Highly recommend”
“Donna and Roland couldn’t have been nicer to our dog. They were very warm and attentive to him and treated him as if he were their own. When he arrived for his stay with them he was on an antibiotic for a gingival problem and they were very responsible regarding his meds. We could not have asked for better care. Unfortunately our dog did not get along with their cat or we would be re-booking with them”
“This was the first time I've had to use a dog sitter outside of my family/friend group, and I felt super comfortable leaving my small dog with Denise. She provided updates and took very good care of my baby. Would totally go with her again.”
“Felicia provided great care for Charlie. He stayed with her family for almost a week. I was updated with photos and texts on how he was doing. I would highly recommend Felicia.”
“So thankful to Donna and John for taking such excellent care of our dog while we were away. It can be very challenging to find boarding suitable for her due to her being dog-aggressive, but Donna and John willingly accepted her as their only client for the weekend and made us feel so comfortable knowing she was going to be in such good hands!”
“I believe that if Hazel could talk, she would let us know that she had a great time. We received lots of photos of a happy dog, and she really seemed to like playing with the owner's dogs too. Everything was very professional, from the first meeting, texts in both directions and the pick-up. Sylwia's family clearly cares for the dogs, and makes them feel very welcome in her home. Highly recommend.”
“Lindsay was a great sitter for our dog Wellington. She provided pictures and updates regularly which made all the difference. We were traveling for 9 days out of the country and really appreciated her caring and thoughtful messages. It really was clear how much she cared for our dog and it was very much appreciated.”
“This was our first time leaving our two dogs with Bob and his wife, Cathy. They were great! True animal lovers. We felt very comfortable leaving Abbie & Tucker with them. They sent texts and pictures while we were away. We could tell that they were very well cared for and maybe even a little spoiled :) We will definitely call on them again for our next get-a-way.... Thank you Bob and Cathy!”
“We have had such a wonderful experience with Kathy. She has watched our dog twice now, and each time I’ve felt completely at ease knowing Luna was in such caring, capable hands. Kathy is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals ... sending us multiple videos every day. We are so grateful to have found someone we trust and would happily recommend to others.”
“Julie took great care of Daisy for us while we went away on a trip over Thanksgiving. She kept us updated daily with photos and how she was doing. We would highly recommend Julie. She cared for Daisy exceptionally well :)”
“Rosalynn and Angel were absolutely wonderful with my old dog. They did a great job of communicating while I was away and my girl came home happy. I will definitely be using them again in the future! So nice to know a trusted sitter in the area.”
“Felicia is such a warm and kind person! She immediately connected with my dog, Molly. Her space is so nice and comfortable. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog for the weekend. She’s also great with sending photos/updates and very responsive!”
“Beatriz took great care of my dog. She has a huge shared backyard for the dog to explore. My dog can't be around other dogs, and Beatriz was great about coordinating with neighbors to keep my dog safe and away from other dogs. She was very responsive and sent lots of feedback. I would definitely have my dog stay with Beatriz again.”
“Rose was great with Gizmo! She sent me lots of pictures and updates and you can tell she takes care of each dog depending on their personality/preferences. He had a great time boarding there.”
“Michael was very communicative the whole time, and our Caju had a great time at his house! He was well taken care of and came back happy and tired :) I’ll definitely do it again when needed!”
“Daniela and her family were great sitters. Lots of communication including videos and pics, which we loved. They were also patient and generous with our (often) rambunctious puppy. Highly recommend.”
“Kristen was amazing, she gave me daily updates on my fur baby. Galaxy felt very comfortable in thier home and I will 100% reccommend their services. Grateful to find a local family that truely cares about dogs and thier well being.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Krystyna & Sara G. were absolutely amazing with my mini Goldendoodle, Hazel! From the moment I dropped her off, I knew she was in caring and capable hands. They provided excellent communication throughout her stay, including updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Hazel came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious that Krystyna and Sara treated her like part of their family, giving her plenty of attention, affection, and care. They went above and beyond to make sure all of her needs were met and that she felt comfortable and loved. I would highly recommend Krystyna & Sara G. to anyone looking for trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate pet sitters.

I’m delighted to recommend Linda as a wonderful dog sitter. She cared for our dog with such genuine affection and responsibility that we were completely at ease while away. From the start, Linda took the time to get to know our dog’s routine, preferences, and quirks. She made sure our dog was not only well-fed and exercised but also loved and entertained. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. It’s clear that Linda truly loves animals and treats them like family. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly bonded with her —the best sign of all! I would wholeheartedly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. We feel so lucky to have found her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newburyport on Rover is $49.95 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 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 September 2026, there are 2,267 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newburyport. 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.
94% of Newburyport 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 Newburyport 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 Newburyport 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 Newburyport.
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 Newburyport 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.
