“Carolina is awesome. Kaci loves to visit and enjoys spending time with the other dogs. They keep me updated with photos and take him on good walks. I love that she offers pick up and drop and is always on time. As a busy person it is good to have a sitter you trust.”
“Andy did a great job caring for Wally! He was very communicative and sent lots of updates. Wally had lots of walks, playtime, and time spent relaxing—and came back home a very happy pup! I highly recommend Andy!”
“Isabella is amazing at taking care of Marvin and Mellow. We shared our concerns when it came to us being nervous but she gave us loads of reassurance and kept us up to date. This was our second time with her, and she was great! No complaints.”
“Paula took excellent care of my dog. Echo came home happy and tired after having a weekend full of fun playing with other pups and being well cared for by Paula. She was very flexible on timings and is such a lovely friendly person. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Paula to my friend’s and we are already planning on using Paula for a two week we have coming up soon.”
“Emily was an excellent sitter, she took great care of my dog Joey for a few days I was away. She sent constant updates and kept me up-to-date with pictures and videos about Joey. would highly recommend her to anybody looking for a dog sitter in the neighborhood.”
“Lauren was amazing! She was so good with my dog Jango. We did a meet and create and she was very accommodating to Jango’s needs and was super responsive. While I was away, she sent me great updates on him and communicated whenever she had any questions. Would absolutely book with her again!! Highly recommend Lauren!”
“Kaelyn was able to book my dog stella for boarding on short notice. I also mistakenly entered the wrong start date but she was able to accommodate me a day earlier, which I very much appreciated. My dog seemed to get along well with her adorable little pup. Thank you, Kaelyn”
“Hyesoo took such great care of our small dog, Penny. Lots of updates and pictures were provided. Penny enjoyed her time in her home. Would definitely recommend Hyesoo for dog boarding.”
“Joseph did a wonderful job with my 4 month old puppy Penny. She is a lovely young girl, but can be a handful and is not completely house trained. He showed patience with her and was wonderful for me to interact with. I will be using him again.”
“Very flexible, communicative, and overall wonderful. Her energy is so calm and friendly, I know Finn had the best time! Would absolutely book again in the future!”
“We had an absolutely amazing experience with our dog sitter and couldn’t recommend them more highly. This was our first time being away from Howie, and naturally we were a little nervous—but they made the entire experience so reassuring from start to finish. While we were away, our return flight ended up getting canceled multiple times, leaving us stranded for an additional three days. What could have been an incredibly stressful situation was made so much easier because they immediately stepped in without hesitation and continued caring for Howie like he was their own. They consistently reassured us that he was safe, happy, and well cared for until we could finally make it home. On top of that, we received dozens of pictures and videos throughout our trip, which truly meant so much—especially as first-time dog parents leaving him behind. Seeing Howie relaxed, playing, and clearly loved gave us total peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone you can trust so completely with your dog, but we absolutely did here. We are beyond grateful and will 100% be using them 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.”
“This was our first time using Garrett to watch our pup and we absolutely would do it again! He was attentive, communicative, and flexible. He also handled our anxious dog excellently, being gentle with her but also making sure she got her exercise and play in. Above all, he treated her like a member of the family.”
“Kathy was so accommodating and responsive! And she sent pictures of Frankie all day long to keep us posted. It was Frankie’s first experience in a house with cats so we were a bit worried, but everything worked out great and all the animals lived in harmony. We will definitely book again!”
“Erin was simply incredible in caring for my dog. She kept me updated with daily photos and I knew he was being cared for with the utmost love. I definitely will rebook in the future!”
“Josie had a great stay! She especially loves the large fenced in yard for playing and the feeling of being in a home. Drop off and pick up was super easy too. Will definitely use again.”
About: I have 2 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience working with anxious pets, ensuring they feel safe and at ease. I use positive reinforcement techniques and tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Your pup will be in loving, attentive hands! I have completed the Red Cross Pet First Aid course in order to be prepared for any events that may occur. I work a flexible, remote job so I am available to tend to your babies as needed! My daily schedule starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 10:30 p.m., but I'm flexible to your needs! I have a large, private porch with plenty of potty spots for your baby, as well as a park within a 5 minute walk if that is what your pet needs. My dog, Juniper, will be a great companion for yours!
“Lyn is such a professional! She did a lovely job taking care of our little Yorkie for two nights. She even bought him a new toy for extra fun. Thank you so much, Lyn!!”
“My dog Tayto loves going to stay with Jason and Noah! He is clearly so happy and comfortable there that he runs to their door when we arrive. Jason sends the best photos and videos throughout his stay. Tayto can’t wait until next time!”

I left my kitty for the first time and Andrew was so amazing! Even though my cat is a little anxious and not used to other cats, I saw she had a great time through regular updates and the instagram!! She looked happy and comfortable the whole time and I couldn't have been happier :)
My dog stayed with Jess for 12 days. She was well cared for and happy. Jess was very communicative and send updates and pictures very often. The first time I met Jess I knew she was the right person to watch my dog. I wanted an in home sitter and not a kennel. I would highly recommend Jess for anyone looking for a caring and loving family to watch their pet while they are away. Thank you so much Jess!
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!!!
Jamie and her family took amazing care of our Ziggy. I knew as soon as we walked into her house during the meet and greet that Ziggy felt comfortable and enjoyed visiting with the other dogs and exploring freely. While we were away, Jamie sent pics and videos and I could see Ziggy was happy and staying busy. The next time she saw Jamie she was super excited, proof that she had a strong connection and enjoyed her visit. I’ll use Jamie again!
Isabella took wonderful care of Stella for almost two weeks, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. As a newer rescue (she's a German Shepherd/Pit mix, still settling into her routines), I was nervous about leaving her for that long, but she put me completely at ease. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant a lot. When I picked Stella up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for — tired in the best way, like she'd had two great weeks of exercise and attention. I'd trust Isabella with Stella again without hesitation, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a boarder who genuinely loves dogs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 4,313 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Roslindale. About 90% of Roslindale 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.
