Donna and Roland were so welcoming to our dog, Sophie! Donna was very kind and responsive throughout the whole booking process and sent us pictures while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful couple to care for our dog!

Krystyna and Sara were AMAZING. They took care of my 2 dogs for a long weekend when I had to go away for a family funeral. I was already anxious about leaving them with someone new and they went above and beyond. They sent pictures and messages throughout the day. One of my dogs was having a paw issue with his nail and they took care of him and all the needs that came along with it. I will be recommending them to everyone I know and will for sure book with them 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.

In the past, I have always hesitated to travel anywhere because I didn't want to put Connor in a kennel while we were gone. I'm so happy I found Rover.com! Connor stayed with Bob and his wife, Kathy. She loved hanging out with them and playing with their cute little dog, Milo. Bob sent me pictures of Connor and her activities while we were gone which was very reassuring. Bob and Kathy are awesome and I see more travel in my future! Thanks for the great care and love you gave Connor.

Felicia was absolutely incredible with Luna. She took her on so many great walks. Sent pics of Luna snuggled up on her couch. Luna came back so happy but wiped after the couple of busy and active days with Felicia. Luna is already looking forward to her next stay! Would highly recommend Felicia - she was so awesome, highly communicative and took amazing care of Luna🐾

Mercis is the BEST pet-sitter!!!! She always goes above and beyond in taking care of my dog Sherlock, be it food, walks or anything!! I had to visit my home country and it is very hard to stay away from my fur baby, but I had no worries as Sherlock was with Mercis!! She kept me informed daily with pictures and video calls! Seriously I don’t know what we’d do without Mercis! Sherlock adores her and so do we!!!

Julie and her family were amazing for our dog, Queso, and our family. She helped us out on a last minute cancellation of our dog sitter and took care of Queso for a full week. Her family took her on walks, played with her, and welcomed her into their home! She updated us with messages and photos. We are very grateful and hope to use her in the future. Thank you so much!

My husband and I were a little nervous about leaving our puppy for an overnight with a stranger. We had only ever left our dog with family before. But after meeting Andrea, she put our minds at ease. It is clear Andrea is very passionate about dogs and has two really great pups of her own. She treated our puppy, Winnie, like she was one of the family. Andrea was was quick to respond to all of our messages and very flexible about pick-up and drop-off times. We loved getting lots of updates on Winnie, and it was clear from the pictures she was right at home with Andrea. We love Andrea, and would 10/10 recommend her.

Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!

This was the second time Colby has stayed with Faith and I always know that he is well taken care of. Colby is super scared of staying with anyone but the people he knows, but Faith and her husband take good care of him and make him feel really loved. Can’t ask for more than that!!!

Daniela took amazing care of Dobby while we were away. She sent great updates and from each picture and video it was easy to tell that Dobby was having a great time playing in the yard and hanging out with Daniela and her family. Glad Dobby was able to be with a safe and caring family while we were gone!

This was the second time that Emily sat our dog and cat at her house and we couldn’t be happier! She is communicative and detail oriented and I can tell that my pets loved her and her family. We will absolutely use Emily again.

Emily is amazing, she clearly has lots of experience with all kinds of dogs. She’s calm and confident and loving. She has a lovely welcoming home with a big back yard and trails. Our 8month old Bernedoodle took to her immediately at our initial meeting. She was very flexible when we had a slight change with our travel schedule and she was able to take him 1 night earlier. Her kids are great and seemed comfortable around our big doofus. Being a large puppy, he has a lot of energy and can’t be left alone quite yet unless crated. Emily sent us lots of written updates, photos and videos and he looked happy and active. We will definitely book with Emily again and we highly recommend her!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Newton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newton on Rover is $50 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 3,111 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newton. 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.

93% of Newton 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 Newton 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 Newton 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 Newton.

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 Newton 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 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.
