“It’s never easy leaving our dog when we travel, especially because he is handicapped and needs extra attention and care. Finding someone we fully trust gives us real peace of mind, and that’s exactly what we found with our sitter. We always know he is well taken care of, loved, and treated like family while we’re away. One thing we especially appreciate is that he can also be groomed and get his hair cut while he stays, which makes everything so convenient. He always comes home looking great, happy, and relaxed. The level of care, patience, and kindness shown every time means so much to us. We’re incredibly grateful to have found someone who provides such wonderful care, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter.”

“Meli was a great sitter! She’s very friendly and attentive. She also has great communication and gave us plenty of updates. I can tell our puppy had a great time while staying with her 😊”

“Another great boarding experience with Melissa and Omar. Received lots of pics/videos of Milo enjoying outdoor and indoor time with some new friends. They truly care about each of the dogs that they take. Feel fortunate to have found them.”

“She was an amazing sitter for my dog Clover! It was my dog's first time away from family and she looked like she had a blast. I loved the photo updates! Would love to use again. Thank you!”

“Lee was great !!! Always sent picture and video updates throughout his stay . My dog had a great time and I would definitely book Lee whenever I needed him !!! I highly recommend him !!”

“We thought we’d feel guilty leaving our dog behind for vacation, but knowing she was having the time of her life with Dawn and her family made all the difference! Their love and attention to her care were evident in every update, and we couldn’t get enough of the adorable photos and videos. We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful family for her to stay!”

“Phenomenal care! Amber is a wonderful sitter, very caring, kind, empathetic and truly loves dogs. My Dante got a lot of love and attention. Amber communicated well, plenty of updates, pictures and videos. Best care for your furry kiddo! Highly recommend Amber as your sitter.”

“I would like to take a minute and say thank you to Mellisa and her family. My dog stayed twice with them and both times I was getting back happy and satisfied pet. Melissa and her family provided everything my dog needed: love, care and attention. They took my dog on regular walks, played fetch, and provided a lots of hugs. Every day during my dog's stay, Melissa sent me pictures and short updates on how my dog was doing. My vacation could not be more enjoyable without knowing that my dog in good hands and happy. I am highly recommending Melissa. If you care and love your dog, she is the right dog sitter for you.”

“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”

“Tracee was very friendly and responsive. She took great care of my little dog and kept me up to date with pictures. My dog doesn’t always eat when I’m away, but she ate regularly with Tracee so I know she was comfortable. I would recommend her services and plan to use her again!”

“Judy was an awesome host to our dog in her home. Our dog threw her some curveballs, as he can be a bit of a rascal, and she took everything in stride and was extremely patient with him. She kept us updated and gave us complete ease that she was taking excellent care, allowing us to thoroughly enjoy our vacation without worry. Thank you Judy, we would love to have King stay again!”
“We feel so comfortable leaving our sweet girl Kai with Sue and her family whenever we have go out of town. She is the most caring person and Kai loves going to her home. We never worry because we know she will be well taken care of.”

“Migle was absolutely wonderful with Zoë. She went above and beyond-carrying her up and down the stairs because Zoë couldn't manage them, sending regular photo updates, and treating her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Zoë was so well cared for. Truly exceptional.”

“Elizabeth was able to accommodate my last minute request to care for my pup overnight. She saved the day, and my pup was well cared-for and came home a very happy (and tired) camper.”

“The best experience ever for our precious Pepi . She had such fun she was pouting when she came home . Paola and his wife were amazing at updates and the very best care. My Pepi even came home potty trained. Pepi paradise like a Disney play week for her and for me while I traveled. I finally felt safe to go away and see my grandson four days of fun for all of us. I will always look for Paola and make sure to take good care of them . They are the best at their love for our pets. Thank you all at Rover. Finding you gave me freedom and my doggy happiness.”

“Roxy had a great time with Jacquie’s pups and another one who was staying with her for the weekend. She clearly takes great care of them, getting outside a lot despite the snow and appreciating Roxy’s affectionate ways <3”

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dog received while I was away! Lingwen was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry friend in their hands. She was so professional, friendly, and attentive, taking the time to learn my dog’s routine and preferences. During the time I was away, Lingwen kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. My dog was happy, healthy, and relaxed when I returned. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their pets!”

“Vignesh is a very professional and caring dog caregiver. He took care of my boy, Goldy for 3 weeks and his daily updates with photos, videos helped me both in not missing Goldy and in knowing that he was in good company (Goldy had peaches, Rico And Wolfie for company during his stay). I’d leave Goldy with Vignesh again when the next opportunity comes and recommend others that are looking for doggy care to choose his services.”

“Briana was absolutely amazing with my puppy, Ace. This was our first time boarding him and I was nervous. He is also young so I was worried about him with bigger dogs. Once we met, I knew Briana and her dogs were going to be a great fit for him. He had an absolute blast and he is exhausted from all the love. She sends pic throughput the day so I know he was having so much fun! I would highly recommend her and I will book with her again in the future! Thanks again Briana for making my first time away from my pup a relaxing and non stressful experience!”

Neeru and her family watched our 1.5 year old mini-poodle for one week and were absolutely wonderful. Neeru sent us plenty of pictures for peace of mind, and each picture proved that our puppy was well cared for, even pampered. We will definitely book with Neeru again and would recommend her services to anyone.
Lindsey was great! She gave us consistent updates throughout the week while we were away. She allowed us to do a meet and greet prior to leaving our dog with her. That allowed us to make sure it was a good fit! We had such a relaxing vacation knowing our pup was in good hands. Highly recommend!

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 .

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.
90% of Paxton 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 Paxton 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 Paxton 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 Paxton.
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 Paxton 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.
