“Thank you for looking after our dogs! Ling and Ye sent lots of photos of our two midsize labradoodles on walks and getting cuddles during their stay. And they came home calm and relaxed afterwards - a sign that they were happy while during their stay. Our dogs can get nervous around large male dogs, but their dog Brody (large labradoodle) is a gentle giant who immediately got on with our dogs, but also gave them their own space. We appreciate Ling and Ye's kindness towards our dogs!”
“Kim treats my dog Ziggy with care and affection - and her 2 dogs are perfect companions/company for Ziggy to play with. She really understands the needs of dogs and I feel 100% comfortable with her care. I also look forward to receiving her cute, playful photos with colorful captioning..”
“Holly was wonderful! Milo had a great stay with Holly and her family, and loved the company of her adorable doodle River. She sent daily photos and was very easy to communicate with. I felt at ease knowing that Milo was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“Benji is like my child, so leaving him with someone is never an easy decision. I work from home and he is always with me, so what he needs most is someone’s presence and attention rather than constant activity. When I saw Mr. Su’s profile, I immediately felt he would be a great match for Benji’s nature, and I was right. He had occurred as a very trustworthy person to me immediately. I appreciated his communication from the start and the thoughtful questions about Benji’s routine. I also loved the photo updates and seeing that Benji was getting out and about. Mr. Su even added a bit more structure to Benji’s meals, which I really appreciated. He also accepted the booking on short notice when my other plans fell through, which meant a lot. Benji looked like himself in every update- relaxed and happy and it was clear he was in excellent hands. I’m extremely grateful to have found Mr. Su, and Benji will definitely be staying with him again. It’s a perfect setup for a dog who is used to having a work-from-home parent and thrives on attention, consistency, and a good routine.”
“Julie did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Cal! He is usually shy and fearful of strangers, but she was incredibly patient with him and soon coaxed him out of his shell. Julie also did a great job of sending us a constant stream of pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”
“We are very happy to have found Jing, someone who genuinely cares and loves our dog, Nara. It was Nara's first time boarding and a long duration of over a week. We were quite nervous but Jing had done everything to ensure us that Nara would be OK. And indeed, Nara was happy and well taken care of. We received photos with short reports daily. We'd highly recommend Jing and yes, we will use her service again. Thank you once again, Jing :)”
“Thank you Barb (and Chiquita) for taking great care of Andy the other day! Very much looking forward to having someone dependable nearby that I can entrust with my little man.”
“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!”
“Jennifer did an excellent job in taking care of Chip! She was flexible in adjusting to my booking needs and very prompt in her responses. While caring for Chip she sent me lots of photos and updates. Would definitely hire her again!”
“We absolutely trust Kira and her family with our pup! She is wonderful, providing great communication and regular photo updates. We feel completely comfortable leaving her with Kira, and she comes back tired and happy.”
“Andy did a great job caring for Wally! He was very communicative and sent lots of updates. Wally had lots of walks, playtime, and time spent relaxing—and came back home a very happy pup! I highly recommend Andy!”
“François was absolutely fantastic. He went over our routine with Atlas and took Atlas for multiple long walks - Atlas was in heaven. François kept us up-to-date on their activities together and was easy to communicate with!”
“This was our first stay with Whitney and Dave and their fur babies. While it began a bit rocky with my dog fitting in to their family and routine all worked out after a day or two. My dog was safe and well cared for during his stay.”
“Michelle took great care of our high maintenance English bulldog while we were away for a week! Due to his breed, he requires quite a bit of extra attention and Michelle went above and beyond!”
“Big thanks to Robert and Jen for taking care of Cheerio over the weekend. They are very kind hosts and love dogs. They sent photos of Cheerio playing, walking, chilling, we were so happy during our trip that he had lots of fun at Robert's home. We will come back for sure.”
“Archer was in great hands with Eric! Excellent communication and trustworthy. He had a great time, got lots of exercise, and we would totally book with Eric again. Thank you!”
“The entire team was so amazing! Scarlett and Avery were part of our boarding team and we got so many amazing updates and pictures throughout each day! Extremely responsive and so nice to know our puppy was having fun and taken care of each day. Additionally, they picked up and dropped her off which was so so handy. Lastly, Scarlett dropped her off with a toy and treats in her bag which was so not expected and so sweet! Will 10000% use them again when we’re out of town.”
“Hong was great with our energetic 14-month old pup, Archie! Hong took Archie for multiple walks in the woods and dog park visits each day, and sent us photos and videos. We could tell that Archie was having a great time, and that the experiences were very enriching. Archie can have anxiety around new people, especially men, but he really seemed to bond to Hong which was great to see. Archie was totally relaxed when we picked him up, and seemed just as happy to stay at Hong’s house as to get in the car. We cannot recommend Hong highly enough!”
“Marissa was great with our kiddo/pup Sunny. I know my pup had a great time playing around with Marissa's pup as well. She kept us informed with daily messages and pictures. Would book with Marissa again in a heart beat!”
“Hyesoo and her family did an excellent job taking care of our dog. We greatly appreciated their exceptional communication and daily updates with photos. We would definitely recommend Hyesoo to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

Natasha and Josh were great with Dino! They were very thorough when we met them during our meet-and-greet and immediately put us at ease. They sent lots of updates and even did extra indoor enrichment activities with Dino during a crazy heatwave. He had his own vacation while we were away!!
We had a wonderful experience! They took excellent care of our dog and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We really appreciated the frequent updates and photos—they kept us informed and reassured that our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear our dog received lots of attention and affection throughout the stay. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!
Cannot speak highly enough of Eddy and his team! We have an 11-month-old goldendoodle (Waffles) who we needed to board for a week. It was his first time away from home without us — a new experience for our dog and a slightly nerve-racking one for me as a first-time dog owner. However, Eddy’s incredible care and service made this a smooth experience for both of us. He was kind enough to let us do a trial daycare run in advance so Waffles could get comfortable, gave us free pickup and drop-off, and made sure we got regular updates on how Waffles was doing. The updates in particular were fantastic. We got photos, videos, and were able to ask questions about how he was doing. It was incredibly fun and meaningful to follow his journey over the week from shy first-day-of-school vibes to forming an inseparable three musketeers trio with a maltipoo and corgi!! Waffles is back home now, tired and happy in the best of ways. Thank you, Eddy and team, for everything!!
Holly took great care of my dog Koda! She was very sweet, understanding, and patient. I could tell she has experience catering the different dogs needs and personalities, and has the ability to accommodate them and make them comfortable. Koda is a little anxious, and I think she did great with him and made us both very comfortable! She was also very flexible when I realized I was arriving from my trip a little later than expected. Overall great experience, thank you Holly!
We couldn’t be more pleased with the care Michelle and her son extended to Clare. Michelle exuded confidence right off the bat as a pet lover. And when our flight was delayed, she was non-pulsed when we needed her to keep Clare for an extra, unplanned overnight. We look forward to calling on Michelle again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Newton Center
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newton Center on Rover is $83.25 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 4,211 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newton Center. 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.
91% of Newton Center 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 Center 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 Center 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 Center.
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 Center 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.
