Svetlana welcomed S. Punki into her family so that we felt like he was on a vacation too! We got daily feedback, with photos, videos, and messages. Svetlana asked questions when she wasn't sure, and was kind and caring. We could not ask for more. I definitely recommend Svetlana and hope to leave S. Punki in her care when we travel again.

I couldn’t have asked for better people to watch my dogs while I was away for almost 2 weeks! Shea and Damien loved and spoiled my dogs as much, if not more, than I do. Each one of my dogs has a unique personality, and Shea and Damien were able to make them both feel right at home. I received constant pictures and updates while I was away, and I was able to see and hear about how they were doing. I think my dogs were sad to leave there vacation with Shea and Damien! Even though they live about an hour away from, I will not hesitate to book with Shea and Damien again for short weekends away or long trips. Thank so much - you guys are great!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always considered them part of the family. Growing up, my family had four dogs, and I was incredibly close to each of them. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve also had my own dog since he was just a few months old, and he is now five years old. He means the world to me, and I take pride in giving him the love, attention, exercise, and care he deserves. Being a dog owner has taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, responsible, and dependable when caring for someone’s pet. When your dog is in my care, I want you to feel confident knowing they are being treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m attentive to their needs, enjoy spending time with them, and will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m available throughout the week and have a flexible schedule, with most of my availability in the mornings. 🐾 Dog Walking: I’m available for walks all week during the mornings. On weekends, I’m available at any time of the day. 🏡 Day Sitting: I’m available for day sitting on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with full-day availability. I’m also home frequently, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. 🛏️ Boarding: I’m available for overnight boarding from Thursday through Sunday. Boarding on other days may also be possible with advance discussion. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine whenever possible and will always do my best to accommodate their individual needs. 🐶❤️ A typical day with me is filled with plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime! I live in a safe and secure apartment community with lots of open space where dogs can enjoy walks and get some fresh air. One of my favorite features of my community is our fenced-in dog park located right next to the pool. It’s a great, secure space where dogs can run around, play, and get their energy out while being safely supervised. There are also plenty of other dogs throughout the community, so for pups who enjoy socializing, there are opportunities to meet some new furry friends and have a little playtime together. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration. A typical day would include regular walks, playtime, plenty of attention and affection, and time to relax and feel comfortable in their home away from home. I love keeping dogs engaged with activities, giving them lots of interaction, and making sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. Most importantly, I want every dog in my care to feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and give them the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own dog. 🐾❤️

Liliya and her family were great with Sophie. This was Sophie’s first experience staying with a sitter so I was a bit nervous how she would do. During Sophie’s stay Liliya sent many pics and updates about Sophie’s routine. This really put my mind at ease and Sophie seemed very content. I also love that Liliya, her husband and two young kids played a role in the sitting which means Sophie got lots of attention. I highly recommend Liliya! I will be using her again next time I travel.

Michael was OUTSTANDING! he was so kind and accommodating to my pup, Nora! he is extremely great with understanding dogs and their behaviors and ensuring each of them receives the best care based on the pups individual needs. my pup has never been away from me in the 6+ years that i’ve had her and he made her comfortable, trusting, and happy from the get go (she’s picky and she LOVES him!!). he is prompt and also provides updates as needed/requested and keeps a wonderful eye on all of the fur babies. i would recommend him to any family or friends i know in a heartbeat. thank you for taking such good care of her - definitely will book with him again!

I was very pleased with Sarah’s care of Brandy when she stayed with her this past weekend. Sarah was great about updating me and sending pictures. Her house is very dog friendly and there are lots of toys that her pup shares with guests. Brandy enjoyed her stay, and although she was happy to see me, was not showing any of the anxiety I sometimes see when we are separated for a while, so I know she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for in my absence. I would highly recommend Sarah as a sitter and plan to have her watch Brandy again soon!

My husband and I haven’t left our 3 year old Yorkie with anyone but family members. I read about Sue on Rover and she seemed like a good fit. We had a meet and greet ahead of time. She immediately made us feel comfortable with her friendly and professional personality. She and her sweet pups made our girl feel right at home. Sue sent photos so we could see how our Yorkie was getting along. We have put Sue on our favorite sitter’s list and she will our first choice anytime we need a sitter. We would highly recommend her to family and friends.

Our second time booking with Melissa and it was great again! Feels so nice to pick up your pup and he doesn’t even notice you pulling in the driveway because he is so comfortable playing with the family. Great communication and loved to see the pics of him outside. Will definitely book again!!

Tara is a phenomenal caregiver to cats. We needed to find a boarding option for our shy adult cat, Sage, due to some noisy and noxious construction work required in our home. (She had never spent time in another person's home since we adopted her over 8 years ago). Tara saved the day. She took amazing care of Sage and provided us with regular updates on her activity and well-being. Sage was able to get settled into Tara's space and even had fun and safe play time with other cats (a first since she was adopted). Anytime we need care for our Sage, Tara will be our first call. She is profoundly kind, thoughtful, warm and welcoming. I recommend her unequivocally.

At Bruno’s last stay he unexpectedly had to see our vet and Rhadika took him at the first available appt. She comforted him and continued meds for a couple days! Bruno quickly felt better.

Carrington took such great care of our toy poodle, Teddy, while we were away from 7/06–7/13. She was wonderful from the very first meet-and-greet and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Teddy in her care. Throughout his stay, she kept us updated with messages and photos, which we really appreciated. It was clear that Teddy was happy, well cared for, and getting lots of attention. Carrington truly went above and beyond our expectations, and we’re so grateful for everything she did. We would absolutely book with her again!

FAQs for Boarding - Shrewsbury

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Shrewsbury on Rover is $77.7 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 3,329 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Shrewsbury. About 89% of Shrewsbury 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.
