“Brianne and her family did a wonderful job caring for Kaia! She went over and beyond for repairing one of Kaia’s favorite toys (several times). Her daughters snuggled and played with Kaia treating her with utmost care. She came back exhausted and I always say a tired pup is a happy one!”
“Hanna and her Mom were great with our pugs. They sent pictures and updates when requested. Our dogs seemed happy and healthy when we picked them up. Thank you so much!”
“Shuhua was absolutely amazing!! So responsive and flexible and genuinely cared for my dog, Russell! I knew he was in amazing hands when I left Russell with her! Would absolutely recommend Shuhua and will definitely book with her again!”
“Gina and her husband were so great! Very communicative, responsive, and sent such lovely pictures and videos. You could tell from the updates they really cared for Monty and Cocoa and our dogs felt so loved and right at home. We can’t wait to use them again!”
“Alex is the best! My dog has been sick and Alex took good care of her and was attentive. My dog was on meds & she made sure she took her pills. Strongly recommend Alex!”
“Kristina was fantastic! We had a great meet and greet before our trip, then she was very flexible about dropping them off and picking them up. Her yard was great for them to run around and get some outdoor time. She sent us photos and updates daily, and even posted to their instagram account. We will call her up next time we need a sitter for sure!”
“Tomoe was great! We left our Boston terrier with her and she took great care of him, giving him all the play time and cuddles. We felt extremely comfortable leaving him with Tomoe and would use her again!”
“Francois took care of our senior dog recently we would highly recommend him . He communicated with us every day with text & pictures. Our dog being on the elderly side is very set in his ways & Francois took all his special needs into account. We returned home to a happy and relaxed dog.”
“We were abroad when we suddenly needed doggie care, so I reached out to Maddy, and she responded immediately! She did a fantastic job caring for our sweet 6 year old lab. She sent plenty of amazing photos and updates, which made us feel completely at ease, especially since this was our first time using Rover. Maddy was communicative, friendly, and made sure our dog got plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. It was clear he was incredibly well cared for and absolutely loved his time with her! I would highly recommend Maddy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We will absolutely be boarding our dog with her again!”
“They provided excellent care, and sent plenty of photos/updates of my special needs dog while I was away on an extended trip. They were also very accommodating when I needed to extend my trip due to a delay. I cannot recommend them enough.”
“Aly was extremely helpful when watching my cat. Made sure to keep me updated, even asked how often I’d want updates. Great environment for a dog or cat, accommodated all of my requests and I could tell my cat was happy and entertained there”
“Paula is absolutely amazing. She is extremely careful, loving, and incredibly professional. I was very happy leaving my Nina with her and I am looking forward to our next opportunity!”
“Joe and his family were fantastic taking care of Harper last minute. She had a ball and they were so easy going to work with. Joe and his family were kind enough to send us photos and we could see the fun she was having. I'd recommend Joe without hesitation.”
“Emma was amazing!! Her and her boyfriend took incredible care of Parker. I was terrified because Parker has never been to the city but Emma made me feel so much better and sent me so many pictures and updates. I am so grateful my puppy was in such wonderful hands. Thank you again Emma!!!!”
“We had a great experience leaving our lab Bogey with Ismael! He sent us lots of pictures throughout Bogeys stay and Bogey came back very tired, which we love!!! We’ll definitely use Ismael again!”
“Michael is absolutely amazing! Our dog Clark has stayed with him multiple times now (both for a shorter weekend and a longer stay while we were on vacation) and each time comes home absolutely exhausted and happy as could be! The enthusiasm Clark shows when he sees Michael shows just how much he loves his stays. We’re always given plenty of pictures and details about Clark’s activities and friends, which makes leaving him so much easier. Prior to Michael, we only left Clark with family or friends, but he made us feel so comfortable and it’s clear Clark has the time of his life playing with other dogs. We couldn’t ask for a better person to watch Clark and wholeheartedly recommend him!”
“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!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Newton Centre
Elaine is awesome! We recently went overseas and were honestly pretty nervous about leaving Gavin for that long, but she completely put our minds at ease. She’s super responsive, responsible, professional, sent consistent and amazing pictures throughout the stay, and is just overall friendly and easy to work with. We also really appreciated her flexibility in coming to pick him up so we could focus on getting ready for the trip. Very happy with the stay—and so was Gavin. We’ve been looking for a go-to sitter for a while now, and Elaine is definitely at the top of that list!
Michelle was wonderful. She was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. As a nervous first-time puppy owner, I asked if we could arrange a meet-and-greet so I could meet her, her son, and see the space where Bailey would be staying. Michelle was completely open to that, and spending a little time there beforehand made me feel very comfortable. On the day of the stay, I initially planned to leave Bailey for just a short time, but Michelle was completely flexible when I needed to extend it. Bailey came home very happy, which made me feel great about the experience. I would absolutely recommend Michelle and look forward to having Bailey stay with her again.
Connor and Juliana were absolutely amazing with our dog! They took her out many times to play at her favorite park, they sent me picture updates daily in which she looked very happy and relaxed, and I know that they kept her safe and very well loved. I am grateful we found them to take care of our dog!
Miriam and her husband took good care of our older Shih Tzu for five nights. They sent messages and photos to reassure us that he was doing fine. We liked the fact that they only take one dog at a time, so he could get all their attention. We would board our dog with Miriam again.
Emma was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my dog, Bobby. Even though it was my first time using Rover, she immediately made me feel comfortable that Bobby was in good hands. Emma was very organized with scheduling and logistics, attentive to Bobby’s schedule and habits, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. She sent me updates and photos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Bobby had a great weekend with Emma and already misses her!

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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Newton Centre can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Newton Centre 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 Centre.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Newton Centre. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Newton Centre 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
