“We recently left our dog with Jing for a long weekend and everything went great. She was very communicative and sent plenty of pics/videos through the few days. Will definitely be having ourdog stay with her again”
“Faith took such good care of our Bernese Mountain Dog, Remi while we were away! I was nervous to leave him as it was our first time leaving him with someone else, but Faith's updates and pictures really helped. Our dog had a great time and has made some new friends too. Faith loves taking care of dogs and I would recommend her to anyone and will go back to her in future!”
“Receba is an amazing dog sitter! She took great care of Rosie, sending regular picture updates that put my mind at ease. Her communication was excellent, and she was super flexible when I needed to adjust drop-off times. I highly recommend her—Rosie had a wonderful time!”
“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful! She had amazing communication throughout the entire stay and took such great care of my dog. She gave him treats, made sure he got plenty of walks, and truly made him feel comfortable and loved. I’m pretty sure he thought he was on a little spa retreat! I would happily book with Vanessa again and highly recommend her.”
“Ruth was absolutely wonderful and very flexible! She and Roxy welcomed Pablo and made him comfortable and happy from the moment one. I was comfortable knowing that my senior pup is in loving and experienced hands. He had a great time socializing, walking and enjoying Ruth's backyard. Thank you so much!!”
“Amanda and her family were amazing with our dog, Bailey. Great communication and tons of photos and videos. For our first Rover experience, she set the bar sky-high.”
“Michael was very communicative the whole time, and our Caju had a great time at his house! He was well taken care of and came back happy and tired :) I’ll definitely do it again when needed!”
“Damaris was amazing. She cared for our baby like we do, and I was at ease knowing she was able to give attention, send pictures and care for my puppy while we were away. I will definitely be using her again. She was amazing!”
“Julie took great care of Daisy for us while we went away on a trip over Thanksgiving. She kept us updated daily with photos and how she was doing. We would highly recommend Julie. She cared for Daisy exceptionally well :)”
“Krystyna and Sara were absolutely wonderful with Izzy! Izzy had a spectacular time with them and Krystyna kept me updated frequently throughout Izzy’s stay with them. I would not hesitate to book again :)!”
“Leyani was great, her kids loved our dog too. I would not hesitate to leave Brewster with their family in the future. She sent us daily pictures of our dog and we could tell he was happy and relaxed.They have a nice fenced yard and took Brewster to the dog park as well.”
“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.”
“Mike and Linda took amazing care of our dog, Sunny!! She played in the yard, went on walks, and snuggled right up on the couch. We do not go away often so this experience was new to Sunny but they made her feel like she was at home. We are so grateful and will certainly request Mike again!!”
“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!”
“This was my first time leaving Eddie with a sitter. Eddie is a shy and anxious dog. Jo took great care of him. Will definitely be taking Eddie to Jo on my next trip!”
“Our long weekend away was the first time we've had to leave behind our 6-month-old mini doodle Sam. We were a bit nervous but Xiaofan set us at ease immediately. She provided the friendliest and safest home away from home we could ever wish for our pup. Xiaofan went above and beyond in every respect. Also, she is so very kind, and so generous with her time and energy, and she really got to know Sam! Our pup got lots of attention and exercise. And Xiaofan kept us updated with a steady stream of pictures and text messages. This was a perfect boarding experience and we'll definitely have Sam stay with Xiaofan and her lovely family again in the future. Recommended without reservation!”
“Jessica took wonderful care of my dog! I enjoyed getting lots of pictures and communication throughout her stay. I could tell she was well taken care of. I will definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, it has always been a pleasure watching pets for my friends and family and I have two of my own, an Alaskan Malamute and a mixed rescue. I like to bring them out to nature to sniff new places and fun activities. I’ve also volunteered as a foster for the MSPCA, including for puppy litters. After adopting Raven, I completed the MSPCA’s shy dog training to support her as a fearful dog and she has done amazing progress. I have been pet sitting and boarding for years, some of them along my own dogs as I put some pictures below. I’m comfortable working with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and behaviors, including the ones that need extra patience and reassurance. I understand that every dog has their own routine and comfort level, and my goal is to get to know them individually to make walks and drop-in visits a safe, positive experience! I work regular business hours usually, but my schedule varies and allows for flexibility throughout the week, especially when planning ahead, my partner also supports our dogs at home. I do my best effort to accommodate different schedules and individual needs. I value clear communication regarding what usually works for your pup, as we know it’s out of the pet’s routine to have someone else tend to them and I want it to be a comfortable and safe experience. I always pay attention to body language, their boundaries and surroundings to create a safe and positive experience. My own dogs are crate-trained and I am comfortable handling multiple dogs on a leash. I follow their established routines and provide owners with many updates as I would like someone handling my pups to do.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in North Andover is CA$65

We are so happy with Joseph! He took great care of our Lulu while we were away and kept us updated throughout our trip. It gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. We truly appreciate his patience, kindness, and care. Thank you so much, Joseph! We would definitely recommend him and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again! ❤️🐾
We are so happy to have found Stacey, this is Lili‘s second stay with her. And just like the first time, everything went so well that we were able to really enjoy our trip. Stacey goes above and beyond with communication and photos of our dog, which is comforting, especially when we’re so far away. We have a picky eater and she came home nice and plump! She is also experienced in giving meds, so that was great as well. We will definitely have our dog stay with Stacey again in the future!
Caty and her family were great with our little man Max. Our pup has so much anxiety that stays with anyone is sometime a bit stressful, but he was clearly at home. The updates and pictures, he looked very happy and we are grateful they took such good care of him while we were away. I would recommend Caty, especially if you have a dog who needs some extra love during your absence!
Gabriel have done an excellent job taking care of Leo when I needed his services. He usually let's me know about Leo's behavior and that make me feel comfortable knowing that he wants to know more about how to treat Leo. I am glad to have found Gabriel. He is someone I can trust when I need to leave Leo with s
Vanessa is wonderful! She watched our dog for over a week and sent us pictures and videos every day of his stay! She gave him toys to play with, frequent walks, bones to chew and her own dog to play with! And, when our flight home was delayed by 6 hours, she was super gracious and kept him an extra night without any issues. She’s very friendly, kind and a true dog person. I highly recommend her!!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience having Irene and her husband watch Cooper for a full week! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he was in wonderful hands. Irene was attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring — treating Cooper like one of her own. What really stood out was a small but incredibly thoughtful gesture: she noticed Cooper’s leash was worn out and bought him a brand new one, without us even asking. That kind of initiative and attention to detail says everything about the level of care she provides. We came home after a week away to a happy, well-loved pup and couldn’t recommend Irene more highly.
Carina was very easy to work with. She even had many of the items in her home already, like toys and food/water bowls. My dog came back super happy after his time with her. And the next time we booked her, he was even more excited to be back. She is very sweet, attentive and caring!

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 North Andover 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 North Andover 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 North Andover.
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 North Andover. 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 North Andover 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.
