“Nicole kept us well informed about Mr. Darcy’s stay with her and Mugsy. True to many Shih Tzus, he wouldn’t eat his meal and had a little bile stomach upset which Nicole dealt with! We, and Darcy were happy with his brief stay with Nicole!”
“Michelle was great! We dropped our pup off with her for a wedding night sleepover and before we knew it he was running around playing and didn’t even care that we left. She loves dogs and treated ours as if he was her own (feeding, walks, playtime, safety). She would’ve taken him to the beach the next morning but we had to pick him up early and drive back to NYC. We would 100% recommend her when you’re in the Kittery/Portsmouth area!”
“Mia had the best stay! I got the most adorable photos and videos, as well as updates throughout the weekend, and it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable she was. Mia absolutely loved playing with her puppy, Lola, and the videos of them together were the cutest. It was clear that Mia was treated like part of the family and got so much attention and affection. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I’m so lucky to have found Nikki and would absolutely recommend her!”
“David was wonderful! Communicative, patient, kind. It was only for about 9 hours, but he went above and beyond to watch and care for our dog. He shared several pictures, and gave proactive updates, and was quick to answer during and leading up to our dog's stay. I would whole-heartedly recommend David.”
“Reesi and Tanner made themselves right at home with Sindy and her family within a few minutes after arriving there. We were a bit concerned about how they might adjust in a new place with new people, but we soon discovered we didn't have to worry at all. We were able to leave them for the day and not worry about a thing. Sindy even sent us several pictures of them throughout the day to let us know they were safe and sound while we were able to enjoy our 4-year-old grandson's birthday party in another state. We highly recommend Sindy when you need someone to care for your pets while away!”
“Cecelia is the best of the best! We truly have never had such exceptional care, service, flexibility, and attention for Clover before. She truly is the best sitter we’ve ever had. Clover was staying the week while we were away for our wedding. She was so accommodating asking about her routine, if clover would like special treats, and so much more that went above and beyond. We were a little hard to reach during our wedding weekend but she kept up with the greatest updates so we knew clover was in good hands. I can’t stress how much clover loved Cecelia and we did too! We hope Clover gets to stay with her multiple times in the future. Thank you so much!”
“I reached out to Alison when my long time boarder decided to stop their services and I am very glad I found her. She is just amazing and so caring, and took great care of my dog. My dog is shy and can be afraid of other dogs but I could see how happy and comfortable she was around Alison and her dogs. I am usually always anxious whenever I leave my dog but not this time. Alison and her family are amazing and I highly recommend her! Can’t thank you enough Alison!”
“Lauren is a great sitter and Woody loved her! She was very playful and loving with Woody, I’m sure he had so much fun with her and Remy! Would definitely recommend her to sit your pet. I appreciate for all the help! Thank you!”

“My 5 month old puppy loves it at Kathy’s house! She has 2 absolutely amazing goldens and a little fenced in yard to play in! She especially made good friends with Snickerdoodle. My only worry was that she wouldn’t want to come home after having so much fun!”
“Anne did a wonderful job caring for our dog and cat. She sent photo updates about their activities and contacted me immediately when she had a concern. I would recommend Anne as a pet sitter. She is responsible and caring.”

About: My six-year-old bordoodle Harley is the love of my life, and caring for him has taught me so much about what dogs need to feel happy and secure. We trained him ourselves, taught him dozens of tricks and worked with him through service dog training. Our days together are full of long walks, playtime and plenty of hanging out, and I'd love to give your dog that same attention, patience and care while you're away. I work remotely, so I am available to give your pets lots of attention and love. I also walk my own dog three times a day so your pup could fit right into our routine. Pets in my home are treated with love and respect, with routines around meals, walks and play I make sure they have a great stay and fit right into the family. Also happy to do local walks, alongside my friendly boordoodle, Harley.
“Milo loves playing with other dogs when he visits and peppers loves all the special attention! Natasha and Jonathan really treat the pups as their own and send so many great photos and videos!”
“Thank you Irene for taking such care of my dog Bentley! She was very responsive, sent updates, and my dog was immediately comfortable with her. She was very thoughtful and put me at complete ease while I had plans! Thank you so much and look forward to booking with Irene again.”
“Katelyn provided phenomenal care for my 5 year old golden retriever named Scooby, with updates and photos of Scooby during his stay. Katelyn has a great property with a fenced in yard that allowed my dog to play off leash with her friendly pups. Her family was loving towards my dog and I look forward to connecting with them again for further dog sitting experiences.”

“Freddi was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Edie! She sent great photos and updates during her stay. She clearly took great care of Edie, taking her on long walks on the beach every morning and being sensitive to her needs since she can be anxious in new places. We definitely would recommend Freddi and hope to have Edie stay again in the future!”

I appreciate the care Donna and Roland gave Toto during his stay. He’s a fussy eater and Donna took the time to work with him and researched his breed’s behavior around eating. Overall I’d say they are reliable and committed to giving small dogs a comfortable, entertaining stay.
We had a great experience with Donna and John! They took such great care of Riley while we were away in Spain, and we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. Donna kept us updated and sent us pictures/videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. Riley had an absolute blast! She got plenty of attention, walks, neck rubs, and even some fun play dates with the other dogs. It was so nice to hear how happy and comfortable she was during her stay. Donna and John were incredibly kind, communicative, and accommodating. You can tell they genuinely love dogs and treat them like family. Riley came home happy and clearly had a wonderful time. We would absolutely recommend Donna and John and will definitely reach out to them again the next time Riley needs a sitter. Thank you both so much for taking such wonderful care of our girl! ❤️🐶
Rose did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Calvin! From the moment we dropped him off, she made us feel completely at ease. She sent regular updates, photos, and check ins to let us know how he was doing, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Calvin felt comfortable and loved in her care. He looked so happy in every picture!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Newburyport is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $68 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.
There are 2,351 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Newburyport. About 89% of Newburyport 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 app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
