“Ye and family were excellent with my senior dog Jake. They sent me updates every day and catered to Jake’s needs as an older pup (eating habits, meds, frequent potty breaks). Jake also met a few other pup friends on his visit. Would love to have Jake stay again in the future.”
“Alyson is truly amazing! She gave us updates regularly and I felt so happy knowing our dog was in a loving place! Our dog was the happiest she’s ever been after picking her up from a sitter, so I know she was really well cared for! Will definitely plan to use Alyson again for sitting!”
““Excellent”experience with Su. He gave daily updates with photos. Really cared about Koda and reached out when things came out. Highly recommended him to family and friends. Definitely use him again !! Thanks for taking good care of our dog.”
“Jess was great! It was so easy to book and she is super responsive kept us informed and send us plenty of pictures. Easy drop off easy pickup. Five Star All Around. her rates are reasonable. Thanks for taking care of Chase I'm sure we'll see you again. Nir”
“Jing was an amazing sitter for my elderly dog, Tela! She was available last minute for a few days and took such good care of her. She sent many pictures and videos updating me about Tela’s stay so that I had no concerns or worries. She also would update me after providing Tela’s medication to her. Tela was in great spirits when I went to pick her up - and she can be very picky about where she stays. I would definitely recommend Jing!!”
“We’re so grateful for the amazing care our dogs, Cloe and Luna, received! They were clearly happy and comfortable, and we really appreciated all the photos and videos Casey sent us while we were away. It was really reassuring to know they were in good hands. We'd definitely leave them with her again!”
“Whitney and Dave were wonderful taking of Louis during my trip away. My trip was buffeted by storms and they were so understanding about adjusting drop off / pickup. They have two adorable dogs who are very sweet. Whitney asked all the right questions about Louis and provided great and regular updates, with pictures! I highly recommend Whitney and plan to book them for future trips.”
“I have nothing but good things to say about Joseph. His communication was great and he was an awesome sitter for Athena. I want to point out that I made an error in booking my dog's stay and Joseph gladly helped out and made accommodations. He definitely did not have to do that, but I was so thankful that he did! 5 stars! Would definitely recommend!”
“Julie did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Cal! He is usually shy and fearful of strangers, but she was incredibly patient with him and soon coaxed him out of his shell. Julie also did a great job of sending us a constant stream of pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”
“Second time booking and very satisfied! They are great with ginger and she loves staying with them. Loved the creative updates! Thank you for taking care of ginger”
“Steven was great with our dog. We boarded her with him for a long weekend She is a nervous girl and often barks at new people. When I dropped her off he took her leash and her treats and immediately got her to sit and calm down. During her stay with Steven he sent us photos, which I appreciate. When I picked her up she was in good spirits and wagging her tail which is always a good sign. We will definitely be using Steven's services again.”
“Alan and Ying took wonderful care of Ripley during his four-night stay. They were very thoughtful in their approach to make him feel comfortable and at home. Alan and Ying provided a lot of communication, including some great videos. They were especially flexible about timing for pick-up which helped to ensure that my kids could see Ripley before they (the kids) went to bed when we got home from our trip. We really enjoyed working with Alan and Ying.”
“Oscar and his wife took such excellent care of my Prague Ratter dog, Rubix, for close to a week while I was out of town. Oscar provided daily video updates that allowed me to know how well Rubix was doing, which really eased my mind while I was away. Oscar was always very communicative and always responded to all of my messages within minutes - he was also very generous in being flexible with the dog sitting schedule (as I was concerned I might not make it back from traveling due to a recent blizzard), which helped reduce any stress I might have felt if I didn’t pick him up when I originally said I would. He told me not to worry, and that he would work with me if I needed to make any adjustments to the schedule. You can tell through the videos that both him and his wife have a genuine love of dogs. I’m very grateful to have found Oscar to watch my dog and I would highly recommend him to anyone! Thank you Oscar once again to you and your wife for everything!”
“Nalix is probably the most experienced sitter that Elly has ever stayed with. She knew exactly how to handle Elly as she got adjusted to the apartment and when she showed some exhibits of resource guarding. Her apartment has a nice fenced in area outside for easy access to fetch at any point in the day. I would 100% ask Nalix to watch Elly again.”
“Isabella was great! She attended to my dog perfectly and was extremely communicative, updating with lots of pictures and videos. I highly recommend and would definitely use her again!”
“Sarah was so wonderful all around -easy to communicate with, flexible, and clearly took such good care of my dog. Got photo updates through my dog's stay, it was obvious she loved staying with Sarah and her family!”
“Mokeisha was very responsive, she updates my dog's picture everyday with me and is very attentive. She def loves my puppy.. she is super caring and I would like to go back if I ever need to board my dog again!”
“Greta was very kind, patient, communicative and accommodating! Lots of updates and pics throughout my dogs stay. Plenty of walks and park time. He seemed genuinely happy to be there!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Cheryl. I would trust her with any pet of mine. She is very communicative and was wonderful with Robi. I would definitely book her again and recommend her to others.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Roslindale
We never feel nervous about going away when our dogs are staying with Jess. She is absolutely wonderful! Jess is so caring and nurturing and treats our dogs as if they were her own. They truly become part of her family! Also, Jess is careful to follow any notes I send and makes sure they get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, and attention while we are away. She will update you often, but now that we have entrusted our dogs with her so many times, I no longer feel the need for frequent updates because I know they are in the very best hands. Her home has truly become our dogs' "home away from home," and I really couldn't recommend her more highly!
IG was absolutely amazing with my Juju, her attention to detail was next to none. I felt carried along at every turn and for the anxiety I had because my bub was injured. So I say if you need a sitter with great attention to detail and who love animals, IG it your person. Thank you for caring for my bubs IG. I will book again and I highly recommend
Katya was great! We had very specific requests and needs for our pup and were worried about leaving him. She was very detailed and made sure to ask many questions so she could understand what was required. She made us feel at ease and promised to take good care of him. She is supper friendly and clearly loves dogs. We got a few pictures and updates. As parents it’s never enough but if we had communicated she would have been happy to send more I am sure. He was healthy and very happy when we picked him up so a great stay. We would book again.
Azizah is truly one of a kind! She’s been Chico’s babysitter for the past four years, and I honestly couldn’t imagine trusting anyone more. Chico absolutely adores her, and it’s clear she loves and cares for him as if he were her own. The peace of mind I have whenever I leave the state is priceless. Knowing Chico is safe, happy, and receiving the same love, attention, and care that I give him makes all the difference. That’s something you simply can’t put a price on. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have found Azizah. She’s reliable, compassionate, and genuinely exceptional. Thank you, Azizah, for everything you do and for loving Chico so well. We appreciate you more than words can say. See you soon!!
Kayla took such great care of our pup and kept us updated with photos and messages. Fenix was happy, tired out with play and walks, and well loved. Kayla even looked out for her during the stressful July 4th fireworks. We will def book again and highly recommend her!
Highly recommend Megan! She made the whole process so seamless: scheduling and coordinating with her was an absolute breeze. She was super communicative the entire time and kept my mind at ease with tons of cute picture updates. Will definitely book with her again!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Roslindale on Rover is $62.06 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 4,187 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Roslindale. 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.
91% of Roslindale 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 Roslindale 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 Roslindale 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 Roslindale.
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 Roslindale 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.
