“Alyson is always amazing watching my cat! He’s had some medical issues lately and she was extremely attentive, followed all my instructions, and gave me constant updates on how he was doing. My trip out of town was much much less stressful thanks to her. I would recommend Alyson for anyone looking to have their cat stay with someone while they are away. Thanks Alyson!!”
“Dana was great!! Keep me updated with photos, and daily on how my bella was doing. Took her on plenty of walks, and made sure she was well fed, while we were on vacation. Definitely would book again!!!”
“I got so many pictures with my puppy playing with other dogs at parks she did a really good time. Paula is a nice woman and have a lovely kids who took care of Mocha and I will be back again for sure!”
“Julie is the best!! I was in a tough spot with a flight delay and she was so kind and accommodating helping to drop off my dog and checked in to make sure we got back okay to take care of Willow that that night. I’m sure Willow would have loved if the flight was delayed even more so she could spend more time with Julie because her life seemed full of adventures and love all week. Huge thanks to Julie would definitely love to have her watch willow again!”
“Awesome down to Earth couple. My dog Luna had a rough first night and they were nothing but kind to her, understanding her nerves in a new home. Luna warmed up to them after the first night and they sent me photos throughout the trip which comforted me. Highly recommend Stephen and Cece!”
“Tianyue was awesome every step of the way. This was our first time using Rover and we have never left Bailey with anybody before, so we were apprehensive. Tianyue was very sweet and sent lots of videos. We would definitely recommend her to anyone. Thank you Tianyue for everything!”
“Brianne watched our dog for six days. She was very communicative and her dogs played well with our dog. Laika enjoyed playing with her daughters and the her dogs. She came back home very happy. We would want to board Laika again with Brianne if she is available.”
“Very happy with Norman’s stay. Dan has a sweet dog of his own that Norman for along with. They went in a nice walk up to Blue Hills for some outside time. Great communication to let me know everything was going well.”
“Su is the absolute best! We had him care for our 10 year old Husky for 2 weeks and he was so great about updates, walks, food, treats, and play time. We also couldn’t pick him up on the scheduled date and Su was so helpful and flexible to keep him an extra night. We are so grateful and highly recommend Su. We look forward to the future stays!”
“Phoebe had a great time staying with Ashley for the second time! She looked like she had a great time in all of the picture and video updates that Ashley sent! I’m sure Phoebe can’t wait until she can stay with Ashley and her pups again!”
“Cindy was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Bear! She was able to accommodate a last-minute request, which we really appreciated. Throughout his stay, she sent daily updates with photos and videos so we always knew how he was doing, and she responded quickly to all of my messages. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and spent lots of time giving him attention and snuggles. Bear was very well cared for, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was with her. We will definitely be reaching out to Cindy again in the future and would highly recommend both her and her brother to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Exceptional service!!!!This is my first time leaving a young puppy while I was traveling for the weekend. Lots of great picture updates, really thoughtful and takes care of anything that comes up.”
“Another great stay with Alan and Ying. They provide a lot of updates and are so caring for our dog. They have become our go-to sitter. Thank you as always!”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with the care Michelle and her son extended to Clare. Michelle exuded confidence right off the bat as a pet lover. And when our flight was delayed, she was non-pulsed when we needed her to keep Clare for an extra, unplanned overnight. We look forward to calling on Michelle again!”
“Ling & Ye took great care of our pup, Truffles for a weeklong boarding. Communication was great and we kept receiving updates. Truffles had a great time staying with the family and made some new friends.”
“Sheila and her fiancé took great care of Winnie, we really appreciated the daily photos and videos of Winnie while we were away, it made us feel good knowing Winnie was in great hands and that she was not just taken care of but played with a lot- which she loves. Sheila met with us before a trip we planned earlier this year, and we had to cancel our plans- but later she also accommodated us on a short notice trip which was also so incredibly nice. We appreciate her flexibility and understanding and would love to have her watch Winnie again.”
“Tyler was a rock star! We were up for our daughter running the Boston marathon. It was a long day and it was nice to not have to worry about Baxter. He also was able to have puppy playtime with two other guests. After a long day Tyler was there to meet us with our boy. He also sent a few pics during the day. This was our first experience with Rover and we will return.”
“Brooklynn and Adam are amazing!! My dog is anxious and leash reactive, but he had no problems staying with Brooklynn. She made sure to walk him in quiet areas during less busy times, and her home is quiet and peaceful, which I'm sure helped Monty a ton. She had no problem giving him two different medications every morning, and he got so much love all weekend. We got so many pictures of Monty snuggling with Brooklynn and Adam - so cute! It was like he went to the spa for the weekend - we would love for her to watch Monty again!”
“Lyn was great with my puppy Pixie-Fluff! She sent pictures, gave her cuddles, and made sure she got some exercise and outdoor time. Pixie Fluff can’t wait to see her again.”
“Wonderful experience. Sarah took in our two pups on a last minute booking for the weekend, made sure she had all the details about their care, and sent pictures of how well they were doing. We were confident they were in good hands.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Readville is $65
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Readville
Dan and Rossi are amazing!! From the moment we dropped off Rozzie, she felt right at home. Dan and Rossi were incredibly communicative, caring, and attentive, making sure Rozzie was always happy and entertained. They spent so much time playing, keeping her active, stimulated, and giving her plenty of love and attention throughout her stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in great hands and we could tell she had an amazing time!!
Oscar and his wife did an amazing job watching over Marco. Kept me updated on his daily behavior and such. Shared fun videos and photos regularly. I would definitely request their services again in the near future. I highly recommend their pet sitting services. Sincerely, George A.
We had a wonderful experience with Sarah! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us complete peace of mind. Our dog was clearly happy and well cared for, and it was obvious they treated him like their own. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!
Tauryn was wonderful to my dog, Ozzie! She's a great communicator and I got so many pictures and updates, and knew he was in great hands the whole time. They went for lots of walks, even to the farmer's market. With her schedule, it was super easy to coordinate pickup and drop off. Thanks for giving Ozzie such great care, Tauryn!
So glad that Lauren is back on Rover. Sierra remembered her, and I think it must have been 4 years since her last stay there. From the second she got out of the car, she was excited, and by the time we got to the sidewalk up to the door, she was wagging her butt off, so excited to be back. A great stay!
ARIANNA ROCKS!!!! Not only did she renewed my faith in Rover again after having two bad experiences with sitters who confirmed and then ghosted me, but the way she and her family cared for my Pepper was PRICELESS!!! Pepper IMMEDIATELY gravitated to her and the family! THANK YOU for making Pepper feel like family! She even misses her son, who cried as Pepper left which made me get emotional! Don’t worry, Pepper will be back VERY SOON!! 5 STARS AND A MILLION THUMBS UP!!!
Ayanna was great! I needed a dogsitter on short notice and she replied very quickly and helped me out of a pinch. She's in a great location with a big park right near by! My pup was well cared for and very happy. She sent some pictures and updates even for a really short stay

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Readville is $59 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $89 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
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 Readville 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 Readville 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 Readville.
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 Readville. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 Readville 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.
