“Thankful for both Elliot and Mindy. They are easy to communicate with, they send daily pics and have been extremely understanding and flexible when we’ve needed to make last minute booking modifications. We will definitely book with them again.”

“Amad was perfect! He was kind and gentle with the pooches and there was no drama at the drop off and lots of excitement at the pick-up. He was conscientious about instructions. I appreciated the pics/video Amad sent!”
About: I have taken care of multiple animals, from dogs, cats, hamsters, fish and even birds! I have always loved animals, there is nothing better than loving on an animal. I had fish and hamsters growing up. I have taken care of so many cats for multiple people and walked a ton of dogs for neighbors. I am so comfortable with giving animals medicine, even when they are not thrilled about it. I would love to love on your animals while you are away, have fun with them and make you and your pets feel secure while you are away from each other! I work full time at Baystate Medical Center. Full time for Baystate is only 3 days out of the week so I can be with your pet most of the time, I do work overnight, so I can take, let’s say your dog, out for a walk and feed them and all that good stuff before I work and be back first thing in the morning for when they wake up! Whatever you and your pet is comfortable with I can do. The last thing I would want is for you or them to feel uneasy or uncomfortable so whatever routine they are used to and like is exactly what I will do!
“Trishul and Victor are the best! They were warm and welcoming to my two dogs and treated them with love and care. Trishul was communicative from the beginning and the experience was easy and reassuring. I recommend him highly!”

About: I sincerely LOVE getting to know each individual dog's personality (quirks and all!) and learning about what makes them happiest. I have many years of experience: walking dogs in NYC & in Western Mass; pet-sitting for my friends', neighbors' and partner's dogs (as well as for other types of pets). I create a warm, nurturing and happy environment for my precious furry friends to thrive. (Please note: on Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays, I am usually available from 11 AM-5:30 PM; on Mondays & Wednesdays, I am usually available from 11 AM -12 PM) I'm currently working part-time as a educator (tutor) so I have ample time to provide dog care (walking, drop-in day care and occasional boarding) during the week, Mon-Wed and Thurs-Friday. On occasion, I may be able to board dogs during the weekend. I live in an extremely peaceful, quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood (the Plains of Easthampton) toward the end of a cul-de-sac. So there is almost no cars or traffic here. I do have a front & back yard. Although it is not fenced, it is backed by trees and, as mentioned, almost zero traffic
“Lovely family with sweet furbabies that took great care of our precious old lady. Regular updates were shared throughout her stay along with some great pictures. Thank you Adam and family!”

“My aussie absolutely loves staying with Nicole —playing outside and inside, munching on bones, and spending time with the family. I always am fully confident she’s happy and getting the absolute best care!! 😊”

“Natalya was wonderful with Charlie, our miniature schnauzer... She introduced him to a doggie door (his first) and he enjoyed playing with Natalya's two lovely dogs... I know he was well cared-for! Communicating with Natalya was easy. A great experience for us and Charlie.”

“Karyn took amazing care of our Eno. She was super easy to communicate with and also gave us updates and photos which we loved. Eno will be back for sure because she was taking such good care of.”

“Rick and Laura are the best, and our dog could feel it the moment she met them! Sophie enjoyed playing in the fenced-in yard, going for walks and even a hike. She is timid about some things, like seeing other dogs, but Rick and Laura took the time to help her through it, so she could continue her walks. Great communication, frequent updates, and the level of care is phenomenal. Their love and compassion for animals really shows. We're planning to have Sophie go for some day stays, since she had such a great time!”

“Itzel was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Huey, over the Christmas period. She was very responsive both prior to and during his stay. I received daily updates and Huey seemed to be a big fan of their long walks, play time, and midday naps. Would definitely recommend Itzel to anyone searching for a quality sitter in the Austin area and will hopefully be able to rebook for future stays!”

“Shekeyla was an amazing caretaker for our two dogs! She was very accommodating to our last minute changes to the plan, and very understanding of our dog’s needs and personalities! We felt very reassured and fortunate to have found Shekeyla just in time for a planned trip, and so appreciated the updates and pictures we got along the way. Absolutely would recommend Shekeyla to anyone! Thank you again!! 💜”

“We just returned from a four day trip and couldn’t be happier with Karina’s care of our dog Milo. This is our third time having Karina watch Milo and we have continued to be impressed with her care. Milo started with a lot of anxiety but Karina’s experience in caring for dogs and her special attention to Milo made all the difference. We are so lucky to have found her.”

“Kassandra was a great sitter. She was able to help my girlfriend and I last minute by looking after our puppy while we were at work. She sent us a lot of great photos throughout the day of our puppy and made sure she was cared for all day. Would highly recommend other pet parents seek her out for help”
“Briana (and her dog loving family!) took great care of our 2 pugs who had never been to a pet sitter before. They are little terrors (young, hyper, still potty training) and she took it in stride and loved on them anyway. Her condo complex is beautiful and her place is very tidy and clean. She was very flexible with our drop-off/pick-up hours coming from out of town. Would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone! <3”

About: I have grown up with dogs, and have taken care of them since I was 8 years old. At age 22, I became a dog mom to a Rat Terrier- mix with a huge personality named Harley. We have grown together through many phases of life (I am 33 and married now). Over the past decade we have watched many friends’ dogs for extended periods of time. I have experience with many breeds as well as dogs with behavioral challenges, though I do require that they be able to get along with other dogs. I work from home full-time, so I can always be there to keep your pet company! For dog walking, Harley and I go on daily walks to a beautiful park down the street at Westville Lake. We typically do a ~1.5 mile loop on the gravel path around the lake, but can adjust to your pup’s needs! I work from home full time, so can be pretty flexible in terms of scheduling and availability. I take my dog on daily walks, and would do so for yours as well. Because I work from home, I can keep your dog company, and let them out for potty breaks in our fenced in back yard as frequently as they need! I have a fenced in yard and walk dogs daily at our local park. I have one ~25lb dog-friendly dog in the home. I can easily crate either your or my dog, but do ask that your dog is dog- friendly as well!

Jessica was a fabulous caregiver for our 3-year old Lab/Aussie mix. She was loving, conscientious and followed all our suggestions, staying in daily contact with messages and pictures to reassure us that our baby was fine. We will be calling on her again when we need a dog sitter.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in South Hadley is $47 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $49 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 535 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in South Hadley. About 90% of South Hadley 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.
