“Peter and his family are absolutely fantastic. They are so accomidating with drop off and pick up times. We know our dog loves staying with them because he practically jumps out of the window when we pull up to their house! There are definitely at the top of our list when we need a sitter.”
“Thalia was amazing! She lives right around the corner from us so it was very convenient. Toby was happy to spend time with her dog too. She sent many pics and videos and made sure he ate and took his meds. She was a super sweet person and I am confident we will use her to watch Toby next time we need to go out of town. Thank sp much Thalia!!”
“Rebecca and her daughter did a phenomenal job with Mac! We loved getting photos while they were watching him. We will definitely reach out again if we need a dog sitter when coming into town visiting family! Thanks again!”
“This was our second time boarding our puppy for a week with Alyssa and we once again had an amazing experience!! Such a relief to know our puppy is so well cared for and having just as much fun as we are while we are on vacation :)”
“Xiaofan never disappoints! Snickers was very well taken care of again. We went away for two weeks, and she sent us pictures twice a day to keep us updated and inform us about how he was doing. She also took him on walks and gave him play time outdoors. He loves affection and attention, and loves kids. She was very attentive to his needs. would highly recommend her if you want to find someone you can trust while you're away.”
“This was my first time using Rover to find very last-minute care for our Mazie and I couldn’t have been more satisfied! Response time was within minutes, all inquiries I made were thoughtfully addressed, and I felt at ease while away knowing our girl was having fun and being cared for. Mazie came home tired but seemed very happy! Definitely recommend ☺️ Thank you!”
“Jo Tom’s place is pristine clean and Jo is amazing😀This was the first time my 10-year-old Shih Tzu Lizzee had EVER been left with anyone other than those she knew. Jo was kind and loving from the moment we met and she and Lizzee became fast friends. Jo sent messages, photos and videos several times a day and responded to my inquiries within minutes. We will request Jo for any time we need dog boarding and have already sent in a request for this December😍 Thank you, thank you, and thank you again! I’m giving Jo Tom a hundred plus stars🌠”
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Stacey! From the moment we met, it was clear how caring and attentive she is with animals. Our Cody and Leo absolutely adored her. While we were away, Stacey kept us updated with photos and messages which gave us peace of mind. She went above and beyond-not only making sure Cody and Leo were fed and loved, but also taking the time to play ball and cuddle which is their favorite thing to do. When we got home, Cody and Leo were so happy and clearly well taken care for. It’s such a relief to have someone so trustworthy and dependable-we couldn’t ask for a better sitter. We highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family. Thank you so much Stacey!”
“Susan was an amazing caregiver to my dog while I was away. I was out of the country for 5 weeks which is s long time to be away from my boy!!! I felt completely secure and comfortable leaving Theo with Susan. I never worried and truly appreciated the pictures she sent and posted on FB as well. I highly recommend Susan and will definitely use her again when I have to leave my pooch in someone else's care!!”
“Jing, made this experience a very positive one. I hadn’t left my 2yr old Zuchon previous to this. I felt very reassured for the duration my fur baby was in her home. My pet enjoyed the doggy day camp, and will continue to use Jing whenever possible. Thanks Rover!”
“Amanda was fantastic!! We left our two golden doodles with her for about 10 days and they had the best of time. Someone was always with them and she spoiled them while we were gone. She was also very communicative and made sure we were comfortable with everything before their stay. Highly recommend!”
“Tilly seemed to enjoy her overnight stay and interacted well with Alexandra’s dog. There was excellent communication between us with several great status photos provided. Will certainly use her services again!”
“We boarded our 2y old whippet, Willow, with Lucille for an overnight. As a nervous parent, I couldn't have felt more confident in the care I knew Lucille would provide for Willow. She and her husband David are such lovely people, and they have a warm, welcoming home. Willow immediately took to her home away from home. Lucille took her outside frequently and went on multiple long walks with her. I left instructions for Willow's diet, snack time and bedtime routine that she followed to the letter. I can't say enough good things about the care Lucille provided, and we will definitely be boarding with her again - likely within the month!”
“Michele and her family were warm and friendly towards our dog Polly. Polly enjoyed the company of Michele’s pets. And Michele took Polly on long walks and she seemed happy and relaxed when we picked her up.”
“Brooke is awesome! Scottie is always excited to see her and to stay over with her and her family. She takes pictures and sends little updates every day, which keeps me from worrying about Scottie while we're away! 100% recommend!”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”

Avery accepted our dog Zeppelin for a last minute trip. She was very attentive, communicative and sent us pics of our beloved family dog. My young kids loved the pictures she sent. If I ever need a sitter again or if anyone asks, I will absolutely recommend Avery for the future!!!
Ashley was awesome and we loved her. Her communication was fast as it was a last minute reservation. She understood our dogs need and behaviour instantly. She really took very good care of our fur baby. He was very happy and had a great time with Ashley and her dog. We and our fur baby is very happy with Ashley and how she cared for our dog. We would certainly go back to her.
Tyson had a wonderful time with tom and his family. He well well cared for and well loved. We were happy they had a fenced in yard for him to run around. Tyson is high energy, but just as cuddly at the end of the day. We had never left him with a sitter before. He was a rescue and we were nervous about how he would do. Tom Is definitely a dog lover and truly took great care. he sent us pictures and videos to keep us informed. We will definitely use Tom again.

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.
92% of North Chelmsford 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 North Chelmsford 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 North Chelmsford 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 Chelmsford.
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 North Chelmsford 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.
