“Daniella is the best!!!!! She’s so flexible and easygoing, has excellent communication, and she was so sweet and awesome with our elderly dog, Olive. Absolutely will be booking her again!!!”
“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!!”
“Jenny was amazing with my boys Tango and Lobo! They were on cloud 9 going to the beach and getting to swim/stay cool! She was great with general communication and updates! Would definitely book again and highly recommend”
“Erin took great care of our dog Carly! She was very kind and loving toward our dog. She sent us lots of photos which put us at ease knowing Carly was safe and happy. We would definitely have her sit for dog again!”
“It’s hard leaving your fur babies, but we were so happy with Shatane and the love and care she gave our babies that we are planning our next getaway! She gives amazing updates and pictures that had us laughing out loud. I can’t say enough about her, she’s the best!”
“Thank you so much for bandits visit! Sarah and Ben are fantastic dog sitters that were very accommodating. Bandit seemed to really love his time there and didn’t want to come home from his vacation.”
About: I’ve enjoyed walking dogs since I was a child. I’ve taken care of many puppies and older dogs. I understand the special care that they require. I’m happy to take dogs in to our home as well as going to people’s homes to pet sit. I work most week days until 5. I am free to help with visits and walks at night. I am free on the weekends for taking in pets for overnights or going to your home to visit, walks, play and feeding pets. I have a section at my home that is fenced in or I walk dogs on the leash. I walk often and make sure to stick to schedules and feeding routines. I have so much love for animals and love nothing more than caring for them.
“Thanks so much, Meghan! Iris and Saxon were in good hands from the start and we appreciated the updates. When we’re in town next time and need any help, we’ll certainly reach out”
“Heidi was amazing! Very attentive and loves every dog she takes care of. We got so many great videos and pictures while we were away and our dog was so happy to be there! Would definitely leave our dog with Heidi again!”
“Zachary took great care of my dog Jade. I could tell she had a great time throughout her stay. He kept me up to date with how she was doing and send me tons of pictures. Would definitely use Zachary again in the future.”
“Zwany and Leandro were amazing with our Nugget. This was the 1st time we went on vacation and left our Nuggy with someone different. If I could give more stars I would. Nugget had a blast and we enjoyed our vacation. Win Win! We highly recommend Zwany & Leandro to watch your family pet!”
“Shelby and her family were very welcoming and eased my mind right off the bat! I am always nervous about leaving my pup in someone’s care, but Shelby was sure to keep me updated with frequent texts and pictures letting me know JoJo was doing great. Though the yard is not fenced in she reassured me Jo would safe and she made sure he got plenty of walks in. I look forward to booking again with Shelby in the near future.”
“Nick was awesome! He was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and friendly. He took great care of our pup and she had a great time. Hulk is super sweet and chill so it was definitely a bonus that they got to hang out all day! Will 100% book with Nick again in the future.”
“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom who is actively involved with a local rescue called Gals Best Pal. I have successfully fostered and homed over 13 dogs of all ages and sizes, and additionally volunteer with transports and events. For years, I have stepped in to help care for friends’ and family’s dogs when needed. Most recently, I spent the last year caring for my soul dog of six years who was diagnosed and unfortunately passed away from a rare chronic illness. Due to this experience, I am comfortable with dogs who need extra attention and daily medication since that’s the care I provided for her. Through caretaking and my fosters, I’ve become experienced with a wide range of personalities and needs. I also work from home 5 days a week, so your dog gets company and consistency all day, not just a quick visit! *Please note that there’s a friendly 8 month old GSD puppy in the house. If your pet prefers to be solo during their stay, my home can easily accommodate a no-contact visit. I’m no stranger to this, as my late dog preferred her independence too🙂 Feel free to reach out with any questions! I work from home full time, so most days your dog gets steady company, walks, and playtime built right into my routine. My only standing plans are a Monday night writing class and a Tuesday night pottery class. Both are just a couple hours each, so I’m happy to arrange coverage or crate time while I’m gone. My home currently includes my male partner and Maple, a German Shepherd puppy who’s very social. I’m happy to arrange supervised introductions if your dog wants company during their stay. And while Maple is a sweet girl, I also understand that not every dog wants a roommate 🙂 I can easily set up a no contact stay if your pup prefers time alone. Around the house, older and trained dogs get free range. Puppies who aren’t yet potty trained follow a crate routine and stay in a designated section of the house for their safety. I also have a separate office where all dogs get to hang out with me all day for extra company. The yard and patio out back aren’t fenced, so leashes or long leads come out for outdoor time. My late dog taught me just how much a pet’s environment matters to their comfort, so I take this seriously. I want every pet to feel genuinely welcome and secure in my home!

Jen & Matt were super accommodating taking a last minute reservation for a new dog. My English bulldog is lazy with breathing issues and they were reassuring and trustworthy with my instructions. They provided pictures throughout the day and kept me updated on how my pup was doing. Will 100% be using them again and recommending to family and friends of all dog types. They are a Loving family that takes your dog in as their own. Thank you again for the care!
Ben took such great care of Lucy while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. His communication was outstanding, sending regular updates with lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. I especially appreciated how thoughtful he was with Lucy’s high puppy energy, particularly during the extreme heat this past week. He made sure she still got exercise while keeping her safe and comfortable, adjusting to short frequent activities given the high temperatures. It was also Lucy’s first time with fireworks and he made sure she was not afraid or anxious. Lucy came home happy, tired, relaxed, and clearly well loved. I would absolutely trust Ben with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring dog sitter. Thank you so much Ben!
When our usual dog sitter had to cancel a 7-day stay at close to the last minute Cecelia cheerfully stepped in to take care of Zorro, thank goodness. She took the time to meet him beforehand and we had the chance to introduce him to her family which made dropping him off a few days later much easier. During the stay he had lots of walks, snuggles, games and treats. When I picked him up he was totally content, wandering around getting extra pets from her and her daughter while we chatted. While we were away Cecelia sent regular updates and pictures. Overall a great experience for me and Zorro! I'm sure we'll be back.
Matt kept my 35 pound lab mix for 5 days over a holiday weekend and gave her wonderful care! She got tired out playing with his adorable dogs and kept an eye his cat from afar, haha. Matt is a caring and attentive host, flexible with my misbehaving love bug. Would definitely recommend!
Giseli was great - her two dogs were wonderful, she was super flexible with us, and our golden retriever had a wonderful time with loads of walks and play. She sent pictures throughout which made us very happy and comfortable that all was well, as this was Duke's first stay away from home.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Scituate on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of September 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 3,400 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Scituate. About 89% of Scituate 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.

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.
