“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!”
“Maria Luiza and McAben were great with Kala! She had a great time and was well cared for! They were communicative and very kind and caring with Kala”
“Juno had a great time at Betsy's! She loved playing with the other dogs and Betsy's family. The fenced in yard gave a feeling of security, would definitely return!!! We loved getting updates and pictures from Betsy!!”
“Maggie was great!! She honored my request to just have my dog during his stay (he can be reactive w/ other dogs). She sent pictures and updates, and my dog seemed happy when I picked him up. We would love to book w/ Maggie again!”
“Frodo had a great stay- enjoyed playing with the hosts' dogs, I got great pictures and video updates, easy to communicate with. Would absolutely use again.”
“Paige was a wonderful sitter for my Boston Terrier Mabel. She took Mabel for long walks each day, gave lots of cuddles, and sent lots of updates with photos. Would book her again! Thank you Paige for taking such good care of Mabel.”
“Allie watched our pup for a long weekend. She was so sweet and loving, sent regular photo and text updates and was flexible on drop off and pick up times. We are definitely going to use Allie again.”
“Megan did a great job caring for our nearly 2 year old pup for a night while we went away. It was our first time using Rover and boarding our dog with anyone other than family. It seemed like he had a great experience and we appreciated how seamless Megan made things.”
“Julia is a great dog sitter! She took care of my dog while I was traveling for the weekend, had toys for her to play with, took her to the park and got her a pup cup!”
“Svetlana was absolutely amazing watching my dog for 4 days. He is a VERY high energy dog, and I am particular about who I leave him with and I’d recommend her to anyone. She was really wonderful at sending pictures/video updates and keeping in communication with me in a timely manner. Sammy was so tired when I picked him up and I can tell he enjoyed staying with her!”
About: Hi my name is Layla and I’m looking for dog walking opportunities in the Cambridge area. I’m a freshman college student at Harvard and I have 3 dogs and 3 cats back home. I mostly have experience with small dogs (my dogs back home are cavalier King Charles Spaniels and one Westie) but I am used to dogs of all sizes and different behaviors. I have been around dogs since I was baby so I am very comfortable with them! I have dealt with older dogs with disabilities and young puppies who yap and bark a lot so I’m happy to walk any type of dog. My schedule is very flexible and I am happy to provide references or more information about myself if you are interested!
“Elliot is an excellent caregiver to our dog Lainey. She has a good mix of fun activities and downtime during her stays. Elliot provides daily photo and video updates of Lainey that are sweet reminders of our girl. Can’t recommend Elliot enough!”
“Zwany and Leandro were absolutely wonderful! Zwany was extremely responsive and kind, and she made sure to do a thorough job learning about my dogs before boarding them. I got so many cute updates throughout the day, and it put my mind at ease to know my dogs were in such a wonderful environment while I was away. Super flexible too, definitely recommend them for anyone looking for boarding!”
“Above and beyond what I thought a dog sitter could be. Gave my Layla the best time. Photos were sent and it looks like my dog was smiling in most of them. Couldn’t be happier with sending my dog here”
“I boarded my dog for 2 weeks. Kwangwoo was very professional to work with and treated Chiffon very well. Chiffon is a picky eater, and he went out of the way to hand-feed her on her first night when she was too stressed to eat. Thanks a lot!”
“Francois took care of our senior dog recently we would highly recommend him . He communicated with us every day with text & pictures. Our dog being on the elderly side is very set in his ways & Francois took all his special needs into account. We returned home to a happy and relaxed dog.”

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.
Zarah was a wonderful sitter for our cocker spaniel Wolfie. Because Zarah works from home, Wolife had company all day long which I knew would ease his separation anxiety while we were away for almost 2 weeks. Wolfie got forest walks along with Zarah's dog Honey pretty much everyday, and we got adorable updates often about what Wolfie was up to everyday. I felt very reassured that Wolfie was safe and getting tons of love while we were away. Will book again 100%!!
We’ve used William and his family to take care of my dog Hunter multiple times and he treats him like a member of his own family, even including him and family outings like taking an apple picking we truly appreciate the kindness that is shown to our dog, especially because I go away multiple times during the year for work and for other reason
Anh is a wonderful, caring dog sitter! She watched our new puppy for the weekend and she was fantastic with him. We got frequent updates, pictures, and videos, and he clearly loved his time with her when we picked him up. We were so grateful for the peace of mind that having Anh watch Iggy gave us, and will definitely trust her to watch our sweet boy again and again.
Julie was amazing . We left our doggies to be boarded with her . We got daily updates and multiple photos in a day. Sonny and Burt ( our fur babies ) were well taken care of and she made them feel at home by accommodating their needs. I had a stress free vacation thanks to Julie
Natasha and Kishan did an amazing job taking care of Nutella! They sent pictures every day, and it was clear she had a wonderful time with them. I always feel at ease knowing Nutella is in their care because they treat her like their own. Thank you for taking such great care of her!
Alan & Ying were wonderful, attentive, and took such great care of Charli while we were away! ❤️ We especially appreciated the daily photos and videos, along with the extra attention they gave to cleaning her eyes. Charli seemed so happy, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands — we truly appreciate everything and would highly recommend Alan & Ying and plan on using them again!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Roslindale is $64 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 4,277 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
