“Heather, My experience with you was nothing short of amazing for both my dog, Sawyer, and myself. Even before booking, you showed a genuine interest in learning all about Sawyer. It was clear that you not only love dogs but truly wanted to make him feel welcome in your home. You provided a dog-friendly environment and kept me well-informed with regular updates and photos through the Rover app. Thank you for taking such great care of him. He’s really looking forward to his next visit with you. BTW, he enjoyed the rest of his Birthday Cupcake! Warm regards, Brian”
“Kyla was great! She offered to meet with us before booking our boarding and sent pictures of our pup while we were away. We would recommend her to our friends and family who need someone to care for their four legged friends anytime!”
“Jenna and Michael were wonderful. We are also sitters on Rover and probably have higher than average standards for our babygirl Sadie (~60 lb rescue). We first did a meet and greet and from the moment we meant them we knew they were good people. We had already meet four other sitters at this point and were starting to feel hopeless. Jenna and Michael were warm, and lovely from the start. Their home is spacious, their yard is BIG, and their own pup, Chase is adorable! Sadie got lots of exercise playing with Chase and going on walks. I was worried that Sadie would taunt their chickens the entire time (which she probably did) but they handled it with evident experience around this challenge. We would happily book with them again. Even though we had to drive 45 minutes to them, it was 100% worth it. Thank you, Jenna, Michael, and Chase.”
“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!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Emily! She was incredibly accommodating for a last minute request and is an absolute sweetheart. I will definitely be using Emily in the future and recommend you do too- your pets will be in the best hands :)”
“Sharon and John took care of my little terrier second time. He was safe, happy and I loved getting daily pictures of him. Knowing he is with great sitters gave me a piece if mind. Will definitely book again!”
“Casey, Phil and their dog Chloe were absolutely fantastic with Penny, our 6 month old golden retriever puppy, for a week long stay. They sent us daily pictures and updates about how Penny was doing which really took the stress out of leaving her for the first time. They were patient at our meet and greet ahead of her stay and made sure to answer any and all of our questions. Would highly recommend them and we will absolutely be using them again in the future!”
“My Bean's stay with Annmarie was better than I could have asked for. I think everyone who has a pet that they love dreads leaving them with anyone when they have to but Annmarie and Bean hit it off right from the start. My dog is a little timid when she first meets someone new, after all it's just me and Bean all the time. Annmarie took her in and she became part of the family. Annmarie made her stay comfortable and happy. I couldn't be more happy and will use her for all future stays.”
“Nick was fantastic! I left my 1/yo Willa with him and she had a great time - came home super happy! I appreciated the responsiveness and updates as well as Nick's steady and considerate vibe. I will definitely he book with Nick again - he made both me and Willa feel very welcome!”
“We are trying to keep Kira and her family a secret, they take such good care of our baby we don't want to share! But it gives such piece of mind to go on vacation and know your beloved pet is in good hands. Five stars!”
“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.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Namrata! She was always in touch, very responsive, and regularly sent us photos and updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our dog had an amazing time in the backyard - she absolutely loves playing outside, especially when there’s lots of snow, and it was clear she was happy and well cared for. We truly appreciate the attention and care Namrata gave her and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Our pup has had several overnight stays including last one for 10 days. He is very happy to be there! (Also, Alex was very accommodating with a schedule change which was awesome!)”
“We were so glad to find Shelley on Rover. She took great care of Rex for our recent getaway weekend and he had a great time with her. She clearly loves dogs and we were especially drawn to the fact that she only sits for one dog at a time. Our anxiety at leaving our little guy behind occasionally has been eliminated and we look forward to having him stay with Shelley again.”
“Kevin has been an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Damai, over the past couple of years. Damai always feels comfortable and happy staying with her, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m out of town. Kevin is incredibly responsible, attentive, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. Her dog, Dofus, is also very friendly and welcoming, and Damai absolutely loves spending time there. Kevin’s place has become Damai’s go-to home away from home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”
“Karen made our dog feel right at home and has a perfect fenced in yard that is dedicated to the dogs. Her Lab made the perfect companion to keep our excited pup busy and entertained. Karen also sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with, definitely going to be returning next time we need a sitter!”
“Sarah was absolutely fantastic, communicative, flexible, and went above and beyond in her care and enrichment activities--she's clearly an expert in cat needs, body language, and how to make them feel comfortable and cared for. We'll be booking her services again in the future without a moment's hesitation.”
“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”
“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”
“Julie and her wife were great. This was my first time using rover and they really made me feel comfortable with leaving my pup. They kept me very updated and took lots of pictures!”

Megan was excellent with our dog Biscuit. She was available on very short notice and left us feeling at ease while we were away for the week. She kept in touch frequently with pictures and updates. We highly recommend Megan and will definitely be reaching out to her with our pet sitting needs in the future!
Lisa and her Husband really stepped up and helped me BIG TIME! I had a family emergency and needed a sitter with only a few hours notice! No only did she step up, she also treated my dog like a member of her family and took AMAZING care of of her! I am so appreciative of them and would recommend them without hesitation!!!!!!!
I had to go abroad for 2 weeks and ask someone to watch my dog, Jesse. This was the first time he was going to stay at someone else’s home so I was nervous. He and I met a few people, but I knew that Jesse would be happy and well taken care of once we met Shelley. I was right! She was gentle, attentive, and took care of him very well. She gave me periodic photos and updates that showed how healthy and happy he was. It gave me peace of mind!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Plainville on Rover is $53.06 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 3,779 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Plainville. 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.
90% of Plainville 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 Plainville 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 Plainville 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 Plainville.
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 Plainville 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.
