“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!”
“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..”
“Su is the absolute best! We had him care for our 10 year old Husky for 2 weeks and he was so great about updates, walks, food, treats, and play time. We also couldn’t pick him up on the scheduled date and Su was so helpful and flexible to keep him an extra night. We are so grateful and highly recommend Su. We look forward to the future stays!”
“We could not be more thankful for Jing and her family’s wonderful care of our pup! It was clear that Harper had a blast and was treated as a part of Jing’s family. While we were away, Jing’s intermittent photo updates with Harper let us know our puppy was enjoying her own vacation. Jing also went out of her way to help us coordinate pickup times when our travel plans changed. We hope Harper has a chance to stay with Jung again sometime in the future- we know she would love it.”
“Wonderful first overnight with Kira - couldn't have been a better experience! She and her husband are lovely, very experienced and clearly know what they are doing. Their home is well set up to care for pups - ours loved to explore their fenced in yard. Communication was terrific, the pictures were great and reassuring to us as protective pet parents. Our boxer came home happy and seemed to enjoy his sleepover with his new friends. We're booking again right away.”
“This is the second time Jennifer has watched our pup Tashi. She was also able to watch his buddy Murphy, a 13 year old Wheaten Terrier. Murphy is an older pup and needed additional care with more frequent potty outings, 3 different daily hand fed medication, and extra belly rubs! Jennifer did it all and more. She is great with the pups and reached out frequently with questions to ensure things were done correctly. She sends photos and updates through the day. It is so nice and relaxing to know your pup will be well taken care of when you have to be away from them.”
“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!”
“Whitney was great with Jellybean! I received daily updates and pictures. Whitney was a great communicator and took the time to do a virtual meet and greet before I dropped bean off for the first time, which I greatly appreciated!”
“Thank you Barbara and Jenn for taking great care of Bonnie. We knew she was safe and having fun while we were away and are very thankful to have had that peace of mind!”
“Julie was absolutely wonderful! Our dog can be quite anxious, but we could tell by his demeanor when he came home that Julie made him feel very comfortable and cared for! We'd love to have Dodge stay with Julie again, and we are very grateful for the updates and great care Dodge received!”
“Kathy was so accommodating and responsive! And she sent pictures of Frankie all day long to keep us posted. It was Frankie’s first experience in a house with cats so we were a bit worried, but everything worked out great and all the animals lived in harmony. We will definitely book again!”
“Eric is warm and caring and has a wonderful way with the dogs he cares for. Our dog Moose had trouble staying with another sitter but did great with Eric! We felt so comfortable leaving Moose with him.”
“Greta was very kind, patient, communicative and accommodating! Lots of updates and pics throughout my dogs stay. Plenty of walks and park time. He seemed genuinely happy to be there!”
“This was Brady’s 2nd time with Hong. When I dropped Brady off, he was so glad to see them again! Hong sent us daily reports and photos. Most of all, they really seem to love our dog. Thank you so much for the excellent care!!”
“We had such a great experience with Robert, Jen, and their lovely family! They took care of our King Charles Cavalier, Osler, for a week and treated him like one of their own. He was well-fed, taken out frequently for potty breaks, and we received thoughtful updates with photos 1–2 times a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Their two daughters were so sweet with Osler, and he got along really well with their two friendly dogs. It was clear he had a wonderful time and felt right at home. We’re so grateful for the care and attention they gave him — we wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!”
“Dana is the most professional sitter I have met through Rover. I was invited to go for a walk with him and my dog before the booking, during which he demonstrated his knowledge of interpreting canine body language and skill at correcting bad behaviors. I was provided daily video updates on how my dog was doing. When I came to pick my dog up, I was invited to sit and eat a home-cooked meal with Dana’s family. I will definitely look for Dana next time I need a sitter.”
“I'm not sure where to begin because my experience with Eddy and his team was more than excellent. I have been looking for this level of quality care for Bella for 6 months, and I finally found it. Bella was well cared for and happy playing in the large outdoor space with other dogs, digging, and generally being her goofy self. I received tons of pictures and lots of communication about everything from how Bella was doing to updated pickup and drop-off times (Eddy picks up and drops off at no additional cost). Bella even came home with treats and a gift. A wonderful experience. I highly recommend Eddy and his team.”
“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!”
“Sarah was so wonderful all around -easy to communicate with, flexible, and clearly took such good care of my dog. Got photo updates through my dog's stay, it was obvious she loved staying with Sarah and her family!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Newton Highlands is $63
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Newton Highlands
Cali had such a great experience! She has some medical needs and required a topical lotion and medicine to be given and that was taken care of. She looked extremely happy in all the photos sent. I felt like I was fully in the loop and any stress I had about leaving her when she wasn’t feeling her best was completely put at ease when seeing how happy she was. 100% would recommend for anyone who needs a “dog sleep away camp”. It also was great to not have to worry about pickup/drop off.
Kim is fantastic! Salty had a wonderful time with Kim. Salty was well taken care of, enjoyed his overnights, and got along well with Kim’s two dogs. Kim’s fenced in yard is a real plus. Kim was able to help me with my last minute booking and was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times.
Katya was great! We had very specific requests and needs for our pup and were worried about leaving him. She was very detailed and made sure to ask many questions so she could understand what was required. She made us feel at ease and promised to take good care of him. She is supper friendly and clearly loves dogs. We got a few pictures and updates. As parents it’s never enough but if we had communicated she would have been happy to send more I am sure. He was healthy and very happy when we picked him up so a great stay. We would book again.
Adrienne is a wonderful dog sitter!! My dog Petey stayed with Adrienne for boarding and he was well taken care of and given lots of love! Adrienne is kind, caring, professional, and communicative! She shared updates and pictures all throughout his stay. I highly recommend Adrienne for pet care!
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!!
Anna took exceptional care of my dog over a long weekend. It was clear when my dog got home that he had a relaxing and good experience with her and Kuma. She sent so many pictures and updates while I was away! I look forward to the next time she can watch my dog because I know he'll have a great time and she'll give him all the love and care he needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newton Highlands on Rover is $92.4 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 4,217 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newton Highlands. 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 Highlands 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 Highlands 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 Highlands 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 Highlands.
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 Highlands 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.
