“Jhoanna did amazing with Khali. She did daily updates about her status, very attentive and detailed. We always felt Khali was in good hands. She made sure Khali had enough playtime and got her daily walks. I would definitely trust her again with my pup.”

About: As someone who has cared for the elderly and people with disabilities, I have found that my gentle demeanor also works with animals as well. Currently, I have no pets of my own (hopefully I will get one by next year), but I am a happy dog aunty to a toy poodle named Ruby who I dog sit frequently. I realized from a young age that animals usually gravitate towards me, and my priority is to always make sure these animals feel safe with me as well. As a dog walker/dog sitter I want animals parents to feel rest assured that their furry babies are in for a safe, fun time. My apartment area is spacious as well, and my neighborhood complex has all the safe space for your pets to roam wild. I also have a pet jungle gym here as well for them to use their excess energy. I work from home as a Data analyst so my hours are very flexible. This give me extra time to keep an eye on all the needs of the dogs I take care of. I also have pee pads as well as a small doggy bed in case you’re furry baby is feeling sleepy. Outside, my complex is quite big, allowing your pet ample space to roam wild. We also have a dog playpen/ jungle gym as well that I’m sure they will love.
“Forever sending my spunky dog, Amber, on staycations at John’s house. Just got back from a week in AZ - John’s ability to keep you updated with your dog (pics), and level of professionalism ever cease to amaze me. Thank you, again, John!”

“Another great experience with Seamus! Maybelle had a great time playing with Jackie-O and got a lot of cuddles from Seamus and Bon. It's the best 'home away from home' we could hope for. Seamus sent lots of photos and videos while we were away and was flexible on the pick-up time. Thanks so much!”

“Linda was so good to our dog Nala!! Nala was pampered with a whole week of zoomies in her backyard, playing with neighborhood dogs, and cuddling on the couch every evening :) We will definitely be booking again!”

“My dog couldn’t wait to go back to Mike’s. He’s a big sweet energetic dog who loves to play. We totally trust Mike (and his amazing dog) to keep our dog happy and safe. We’ve only been home for about a day but he’s still sleeping off all the fun he had!”

“Steven was fantastic with Guinness! My pup had a blast there. Steven cared about him like his own dog. Very responsive and knowledgeable about dogs! I will definitely be booking with him again!”

“Jackie took great care of our pups, She was kind enough to mett us a couple of day before our appt so are pups could get acquainted with her and her house. Good communication. Will definitely use Jackie for all our pup sitting needs!”

“Rachel took great care of my dog, Ivy! She sent lots of updates throughout Ivy’s time with her, which I appreciated having never left Ivy with anyone from rover and Ivy having separation anxiety.”

“Nola and Damian were amazing! They took us last minute for my two young high energy pups. Communication was prompt and professional. My boys came home happy and well cared for, and I would happily book with Nola & Damian again!”


“Luciana was an awesome dog sitter. Took great care of our dog, sent lots of great pictures, was very responsive to everything we sent. We hope she is available the next time we have to leave! Thank you Luciana!!”
“Guillermo is fantastic. He was attentive to our old pup and wonderfully responsive to us. He is kind and calm, and it was clear our dog felt so comfortable and content. Our dog had an upset stomach and Guillermo was gracious and amazing at taking the extra steps to give him canned food and medicine. He sent great updates and pictures, I wish I had found him sooner and look forward to having him care for our dog again.”

“Elizabeth and Rodrigo took amazing care of our dog while we were away for 6 days. He’s getting older and can be a little anxious, but he was totally comfortable in their home. They sent us tons of photos too, which we loved since we missed him. I’d absolutely recommend them as dog sitters.”

“This was Rosie’s second stay with Rebeca, and she absolutely loved it! Rebeca took wonderful care of her and sent the cutest picture updates. We will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommended!”

“Marcia is terrific! She helped us with a last minute emergency boarding request and provided extraordinary loving care for our 7 year old boxer. Cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“Rachel was amazing! She made us and Joey feel comfortable. She was super communicative and let us know how he was doing. We would book Rachel over and over.”

“Xiuping is an amazing and responsive dog sitter! She sent me lots of pictures and messages throughout the stay, showing how well my dog was being taken care of. This definitely set my mind at ease, knowing and seeing that my dog was having a great time with her family. Dog care instructions were followed very well and she was able to accommodate my last minute requests. I will absolutely be recommending Xiuping to my friends and will have her and her family watch my dog again!”

“Julia and her partner were wonderful sitters! My dog is diabetic and partially blind and requires extra care (insulin injections, being carried up and down stairs, etc) and they were very attentive and helpful for him. They kept me constantly updated with messages and pictures of him and let me know when anything was going on with him out of the ordinary given his conditions. I highly recommend them!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saugus
We are new to the area and were a bit worried about finding a new sitter for our dog, but Xinyue and Weihai put my mind at ease right away! They provided us with updates throughout the stay and our dog, Gibbs, returned home happy and tired after playing with Igo. They were also very flexible with our drop off/pick up times due to some flight delays. Highly recommend!

Our dogs Enzo and Gordi stayed with Lori for three days this month and loved it! Lori has a great setup with a nice fenced-in yard, and clearly has a lot of experience and dog sense. We enjoyed getting frequent photo and video updates – our boys were clearly having a great time! We've already booked our next stay with Lori!

Kerri did a great job watching my Penny for a little over one week. I was worried to leave her as I have never done so before, but she seemed to fit right in! She made fast friends with the other dogs at Kerri's house and came home utterly exhausted from all the playful time. Would definitely book again 🥰

Susan was just amazing !!! She kept a clear communication between Mayas day to day activities and even made her home made treats!! Maya was just having fun and looked like she was the one on vacation instead of me!! Absolutely recommend Susan and will definitely keep her as my top pick!!! Thanks Susan !!

Mike and his wife were so wonderful to our dog Nela! It was our first time leaving her for more than a day and I was extremely nervous about it but it was honestly the best experience for us and for Nela! They sent great pictures and updates of their day and I could tell Nela had so much fun with them & their dog Parker. I think she’ll definitely miss playing with Parker!

I had another great experience with Vanessa and Diana! My dog has stayed with them multiple times now and this time he stayed for 10 days and I felt completely at ease the entire time. They provided plenty of updates and great communication throughout his stay, and it was clear he was being cared for like one of their own. I can tell how comfortable and happy he is there, which means so much to me. I’m very grateful for the care and attention they gave him and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

This is our third time sending our dog for a week with Caren and her family. They treat our dog like their own, sending lots of photos of dog walks, treats, snuggles and play time. We feel very comfortable that our dog is well taken care of while we travel, he often doesn’t want to leave! We are already planning our next dog sitting stay!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Saugus on Rover is $48.15 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 4,021 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Saugus. About 90% of Saugus 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.
