“Very glad we got to board our Lab Eddy with Matt and Jennifer. They were always providing updates and pictures and quick to respond. Very nice people, can’t wait to have our dog stay with them again!”
“Jaime took good care of Bobby and we are very happy about the communications during his stay. Bobby will be an returning customer for sure :) Thanks Jaime.”
“Sarah took our pup for a week while my family went on vacation. She was wonderful with daily updates and photos (great communication). Will definitely be using her again. Our pup was happy and comfortable”
“We left our 15 year old Brittany, Dudley, with Kelsie for nearly 2 weeks on very short notice. Kelsie made our international trip so much easier knowing that Dudley was part of her family. She sent photos daily and was great about keeping him on leash when outside. Our first time using Kelsie, but we will definitely be calling on her again should we need boarding for Dudley.”
“Millie absolutely loved her time with Larisa and Daisy! Larisa made sure to keep me updated on their daily adventures and send lots of pictures. Millie took multiple trips to the beach and walks at the bogs. We are very happy with the service and support Millie received while staying the weekend 😊 We will definitely reach out again for any pet sitting needs!”
“Brittany was amazing looking after Charlie for a night. She was in constant communication and gave us updates on how she was doing. Also added a lot of pictures for us to enjoy and see how she was 10/10 would have her dog sit again.”
“Heidi was welcoming and friendly at drop off and understanding and accommodating when our return flight was delayed. She clearly loves dogs and sent pictures and videos during Boris’ stay. Thank you Heidi!!”
“Sarah and Ben went above and beyond while watching our dog. He celebrated his birthday with them and they send us several pictures and spoiled him with treats. Great communication, easy pick up and drop off, and trust knowing our boy is in great hands.”
“Grigorii took the best care of my dog. He was communicative, friendly, and thorough in his care. My dog is timid after a recent attack and Grigorii was patient and able to get her to come out of her shell over a few days’ stay. His dog is a sweetheart too so I felt confident the pups would get along. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone and I’d be disappointed if he wasn’t available next time I need a sitter!”
“Outstanding! We felt completely at ease from the moment we met Zwany. She's someone both pets and people feel totally comfortable around. She and Leandro are detail-oriented, thorough, communicative, responsive, and kind- everything and more you'd want people looking after your pets to be. They go above and beyond- I would highly recommend them to others and we would definitely bring our dog back.”
“Jenny was amazing with my boys Tango and Lobo! They were on cloud 9 going to the beach and getting to swim/stay cool! She was great with general communication and updates! Would definitely book again and highly recommend”
“Thanks so much, Meghan! Iris and Saxon were in good hands from the start and we appreciated the updates. When we’re in town next time and need any help, we’ll certainly reach out”
“Kermit stayed for 4 nights and 5 days, and the experience was completely stress-free! Stephen kept in touch with us every day, sending updates and adorable pictures of Kermit. Whenever my kids asked about him, I could show them exactly what he was doing, which really helped ease their worries. It gave all of us peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Alana was great with my pup. The communication was great, the updates and picture were great and Leo had a great time. Thank you very much for watching him over the Thanksgiving weekend!”
“Lynne was amazing. Our sweet, but a little timid, rescue loved being at her home. She sent updates and pictures to let us know how she was settling in. She will definitely be our go-to sitter in the future!”
“We had a great experience working with Julia! I really appreciated the updates and pictures to let us know that our dog Kodi was having a great time! I knew that Kodi was in good hands. And I think he has a new bestie in their golden Barry. Would definitely recommend Julia!”
“Natali was able to take Chunk for a last minute visit and she could not have been more wonderful! Chunk had a great weekend with her and she was flexible, attentive, and took such great care of him.”
“Vincent took amazing care of border collie, Kennedy! Sent updates regularly and gave him the perfect amount of exercise! His background in service animal training was great for Ken and has helped us so much in the last week! I can’t recommend Vincent enough!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Scituate
Jennifer and Matt's house has become a home away from home for our sweet boy Ollie. He even has a favorite "spot" where he likes to hang out. Jennifer and Matt send photos every day, usually multiple times a day - and when I've expressed concerns over Ollie feeling at ease they take care to send me photos of him walking or playing. I always feel very comfortable leaving Ollie with them.
When our usual dog sitter had to cancel a 7-day stay at close to the last minute Cecelia cheerfully stepped in to take care of Zorro, thank goodness. She took the time to meet him beforehand and we had the chance to introduce him to her family which made dropping him off a few days later much easier. During the stay he had lots of walks, snuggles, games and treats. When I picked him up he was totally content, wandering around getting extra pets from her and her daughter while we chatted. While we were away Cecelia sent regular updates and pictures. Overall a great experience for me and Zorro! I'm sure we'll be back.

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 Scituate 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 Scituate 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 Scituate.
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 Scituate. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 Scituate 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.
