“Yesika was such a great sitter for my dog Moose! She kept him active and comfortable and sent a ton of pictures each day so I could see how much fun he was having. I felt that he was in great hands which was such a relief while I was out of state.”
“Guillermo was absolutely amazing with our dog, Lola. He took such great care of her and kept us constantly updated with messages and photos, which really put us at ease while we were away. It’s never easy leaving your pet behind, but Guillermo made the whole experience completely stress free. We could tell Lola was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for the entire time. We’re so grateful for his attentiveness and kindness, and we would 100% trust him with Lola again. Highly recommend!”
“Penny loved staying with Monica! She was safe and well taken care of! We received pictures everyday and she helped her settle in so we didn’t have to worry while we were away. Definitely will use her again! Thank you Monica!!”
“Kyra had the best time with Aurora and her sweet pup Madi! I was in Europe for a week and felt so at ease with constant updates and photos while I was away! I can’t recommend Aurora enough and feel confident in using her services again next time I go away!”
“Luciana and her mother did a great job taking care of our dog while we were on vacation! It was our first time leaving him for an extended period of time so we were quite nervous! They sent us pictures everyday which helped us feel at ease.”
“The best dog sitter I’ve ever had! I have a dog with special needs and I felt so comfortable leaving him with Rebekka! My dog had a great time while I was away! I’d highly recommend!”
“Lady always has a great time staying with Natasha & Jonathan. She's always well taken care of, and they send plenty of updates so we can see what she's up to. We highly recommend them!”
“As always, Seamus and Bon went above and beyond to provide great care for Maybelle! We were away for several weeks and needed Seamus to drop off and pick up Maybelle from another sitter due to schedule conflicts. He handled the communication and transfer seamlessly, which set my mind at ease. Seamus sends great daily updates and I always know that Maybelle is extremely well cared for in his home.”
“Freddi took outstanding care of Penny!!! She has an idyllic setup for hosting and provided Penny a cozy and comfortable stay while we were out of town. We loved the photos Freddi sent every day - Penny was clearly right at home! Would definitely book again.”
“Man & Zhen took great care of Wadsworth! They took him on lots of walks and sent a ton of photos. I could tell they treated him like part of the family :-) I would absolutely book with them again!!”
“Yang was absolutely amazing watching Tormund. She went above and beyond what I expected from my first time using Rover. She's going to be the first person I go to for any future dog sitting needs.”
“Chanel was incredible - my first time leaving my pup with someone other than family! My pup definitely gave her a run for her money with some weird behaviors but she was incredibly patient and communicative. Lots of updates, photos, and videos throughout the week. Will absolutely book again!!”
“Wonderful as always! Penny was so excited when we pulled up in front of Akhil’s house. She definitely remembered him and knew she was in for a great weekend! Got updates throughout her stay. Would fully recommend!”

“Jennifer was absolutely amazing with my 10 year old dog, Barclay! This was his first stay with her while I was away on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious from every picture and message that Barclay was happy, relaxed, and being treated like part of the family. She even took him on little adventures, and I could tell he was having a great time. When I picked him up, he was healthy, happy, and completely himself, and I think he was wondering why the vacation had to end as he whined a bit when we left her! Jennifer is kind, attentive, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. Leaving my dog behind is never easy, but Jennifer made it so much easier knowing he was in such caring hands. I absolutely will book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter.”
“Zelun took fantastic care of our dog for over a week during Thanksgiving! Our dog usually takes a few days to perk up and get used to her new situation, but she settled in after the first night! Zelun sent daily pictures and videos from walks and afternoon sun naps, and our dog looked sooooo happy in every picture. Would 10/10 recommend.”
“Janette and her family were so welcoming and loving with my dog, Ridley. We got lots of updates and photos of her enjoying her stay, and felt completely at ease leaving her in their care.”
“Marie was wonderful. Both with Luna and me. She immediately put me at ease when I dropped Luna off. I could tell she is a dog person. She sent updates and photos throughout the day. And when we picked up Luna last night, we could tell she had a great day. We are so appreciative and grateful to Maria.”

Halle had an excellent time with Luke again! She went on hikes & went for swims, and got lots of pets & belly rubs. I cannot speak highly enough for the superb care & attention that Luke provided her. We had a great / stress-free weekend knowing that Halle was having a great weekend too. Halle's already looking forward to her next stay with Luke!
Fantastic dog sitter! They took wonderful care of my dog and sent daily photos that showed how happy and relaxed he was. Her dog is very friendly and welcoming, and the two got along great. I felt confident that my dog was in gods hands and would definitely use their services again.
Marcia is spectacular. She offers everything you hope for when leaving your pup. It’s our first time with her and the 3rd place I’ve tried with my wheaten because of his anxiety. He did really well and found himself a second home where his fun, playful side shone. I highly recommend Marcia. Thank you Marcia. 🙏
Mandy is cheerful and easy-going. She provided photos of my pet regularly and confirmed that meals were consumed (since our pet refuses to eat at times) and exercise was given. The fenced yard and deck are ample for fresh air breaks and Ruby seemed very much at home during her stay.
Victoria and family took great care of our dogs for the week while the rest of my family took a vacation. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and was quick to respond when I asked to updates. She was also very flexible about pickup and drop off times. The dogs seemed to have a good time, and Victoria will be going on our list of people to reach out to again next time we need dog sitting. Thank you!
Heather took great care of my goldendoodle (Riva) for a weekend. Heather was very communicative and shared pictures and updates throughout the stay, and it was comforting to see Riva looking so relaxed and at home. She seemed to fit right into Heather's family! I would definitely recommend Heather to others.
Everything went absolutely wonderfully with Olivia and Adam. We left our dog Chelsie with them for a long stay of about 2.5 weeks, and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Chelsie can be a bit anxious when staying with someone new, and to be honest, we were anxious too. We know all the little quirks and routines of our dog, but of course it’s impossible to explain every tiny detail ahead of time. Still, they handled everything incredibly well and made her feel comfortable very quickly. They constantly sent photos and updates, which I was extremely grateful for because it allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip without worrying. It was very clear from the updates that Chelsie was happy, comfortable, and having her own little vacation. At one point we joked that she might not even want to come back home after staying with them. Highly recommend them, especially if you’re nervous about leaving your dog for a longer stay.
Vibutesh took really good care of Ori during a last minute booking we had. He sent us frequent updates and accomodated all of our requests for Ori. He was also very flexible with timings and such. I highly recommend Vibutesh and would definitely book him again for Ori !
We could tell that Stella enjoyed her time with Betsy & Gordon and their children. We were very selective in our selected sitters leading up to our European vacation. This was our first out of the country vacation away from Stella. Betsy and Gordon provided us with great communication leading up to the booking, and great communication throughout. Easing my fur momma worries. We hope that Stella will visit again soon!
We’ve tried other sitters on Rover, but this was by far the best! Their spacious, fenced backyard was perfect and our dogs absolutely loved it there. Our dogs can sometimes get overly excited meeting new people and dogs, but both them and their dog, Newton, were so gentle and accommodating. They sent tons of photos and videos throughout the day, so we never worried for a second. Our pups had an amazing time - honestly seemed a bit sad when they got home! It truly felt like a little vacation for them, and we will definitely be back!!🤍

There are 4,082 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Reading. About 90% of Reading sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
