Mary was a wonderful pet sitter. She was incredibly responsive and touched base with me frequently with photos while I was on vacation. I think my dog would happily have continued staying with her when I went to pick her up!

Erin was fantastic! My labradoodle stayed for a few days and got to go on walks with her doggies and play in her yard! I appreciate that she sent me pictures and that my pup had a comfortable and loving place to stay! :)

Aline was amazing! She was very easy to communicate with and kept us updated throughout the entire time. We really appreciated all the photos she sent—they showed how happy and comfortable Coco was. She paid attention to every detail and made sure our baby was safe and happy the whole time. Coco had such a great time with her! I will definitely book Aline again in the future. Thank you so much, Aline!

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!

Rebecca is absolutely wonderful and we are so lucky we found her to help take care of our dog Winnie when we were out of town. She went out of her way making sure Winnie felt loved and took great care of her for us. She kept in touch with us and we did not worry for a second knowing Winnie was in great hands. I cannot recommend Rebecca enough!

About: I have a 5-year-old border collie. He’s very friendly and loves to play with other dogs. I live in a town house so I don’t have a yard per say. I typically take my dog to parks/fields in Ashland to hike or run around. I typically walk my border collie about 4 miles a day as well. I work remote so I am usually home. Available 7 days a week. I usually go to the gym for a few hours each day but try to be home for my dog to keep him active as a herding dog (border collie) I will do 2 long walks per day typically (2 miles each). I will also take my dog and yours hiking or to a field/park but not a dog park. I can go to a fenced in field if needed for your dog. Mine doesn’t need a fence.

Besides, I have plenty of toys and treats in the house.

About: I am a responsible, caring, and dependable dog sitter who understands how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet and respect your home. I have experience helping care for dogs belonging to family and friends, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and following their regular routines. I take time to understand each dog’s personality, energy level, habits, and individual needs. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner and pay close attention to safety during walks, meals, and time inside the home. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, organized, punctual, and attentive to detail. I provide regular photos and updates so owners can feel comfortable and informed while their dog is in my care. My goal is to offer warm, reliable, and personalized care while helping every dog feel safe and comfortable. I am currently available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in Wayland, MA and nearby areas. My schedule allows me to provide dependable morning, midday, and afternoon care, depending on the client’s location and the pet’s routine. I value punctuality and clear communication, and I carefully manage my calendar so every pet receives the time and attention they need. I provide care in the client’s home and always respect the dog’s established routine and the owner’s instructions. Before each booking, I make sure I understand feeding schedules, walking habits, temperament, medical needs, emergency contacts, and any situations that should be avoided. I carefully check doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes, and I send regular photos and updates so owners feel informed and confident while their dog is in my care.

I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dog received while I was away! Lingwen was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry friend in their hands. She was so professional, friendly, and attentive, taking the time to learn my dog’s routine and preferences. During the time I was away, Lingwen kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. My dog was happy, healthy, and relaxed when I returned. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their pets!

It was our first time leaving our dog - Frankie - with Elaine. Looks like Frankie had a good time at her place. Daily updates with pictures were very nice and gave us confidence and peace of mind that everything was going well. We are absolutely going to return to this loving home. Thank you Elaine of taking such a good care of our pup.

We had such a fantastic experience leaving my dog Lyla with Sandra for a weekend. From the initial call I could tell that Sandra would take good care of my girl. She asked and answered many questions to make sure that it was the right fit for both of us. I felt so comfortable leaving Lyla with her and could tell Lyla was having a blast. She was very understanding with Lyla’s anxiety and sent me messages and photos. It made me feel so happy knowing Lyla was in good hands. I would leave 6 stars if I could :)

Nancy was really attentive and sweet with Blu, who is now old and can be grumpy. Nancy sent updates and pictures and made sure I knew Blu was doing well, keeping me reassured as this was also the longest time I was away from him. I really recommend Nancy.

FAQs for Boarding - Southborough

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Southborough on Rover is $33.3 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 4,190 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Southborough. About 90% of Southborough 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.
