“My dog Hank had a great stay with Sydney and her family! He doesn't get along with every dog, but he seemed to have quite a bit of fun with their little guy Knightley — despite a considerable difference in age and size! (Approx. 15 lbs. vs. 85 lbs.) Sydney was very communicative and gave me daily updates on how Hank was doing, along with pictures, for the week that we were gone. I would definitely recommend her for boarding!”

“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!”


“My dogs loved Sara from the first visit a couple of months before their stay. We came back on drop off day and they couldn’t wait to go inside. The occasional photos of the dogs playing were perfect. And the dogs looked great when we came home! Thanks for taking good care of our kids and we will see you next time!”
“Chelsea was a great dog sitter. She sent daily photos of Milo, genuinely cared for Milo, has a good outdoor space for dogs, inside space was air-conditioned. I would definitely have Chelsea watch Milo again. She is energetic and easy to talk with.”

“Marianne took great care of Miles for a week! He had lots of other dogs to play with. I appreciated how Marianne communicated with me too - very responsive and kept me in the loop.”


“Anastasia took awesome care of our 11-month old puppy who was away from us for the first time. We loved all of the updates and photos throughout her weekend stay, and we will definitely book with Anastasia again! Thanks so much!”

“It's a return stay for Toto. He probably got more pampered by Bo & Xiaosong than from us. We received constant update videos, photos, and messages every single day. Bo & Xiaosong are great hosts. Thank you!”

“Sarah was great with Baci! Very attentive to details and my care instructions, checked in with photos, and communicated well. She’s a nice person and so are her kids, and I will definitely have her sit for Baci again. Thank you Sarah!”

“We were so happy with Melissa and Axel. They took great care of our dog, sent us pictures and updates and their kids gave our dog all the love. We will definitely be rebooking.”

“Jace was wonderful with Luna! He kept us in the loop with clear communication, updates, and photos, and made sure she was well cared for. It was wonderful knowing she was happy and getting lots of walks while we were away. I highly recommend Jace and would definitely book with him again!”

“Francois was extremely communicative and took great care of our pup while we were traveling. He made me feel confident that she was well cared for and loved while we were gone. She returned home happy and healthy.”

“Tomoe and her family took great care of our Max and sent lots of pics and videos of him enjoying himself and getting lots of cuddles! We will definitely use her again when we need a sitter”

“We are repeat customers of Julie and we couldn't ask for a better family to take care of our dogs! If our pups could talk they would say "We Love going to Julie and Tiffany's house!! They let us play outside and snuggle us on the couch as much as we want!! We must be super cute because they are always taking our picture! We give them lots of kisses and we are pretty sure they love that!" This particular visit our flight was delayed on our return and Julie was so accommodating to our ever changing arrival time, we ended up needing to have them stay an extra night and she made it work for us - free of charge! I know the pups will give her extra kisses for that the next time they are there! Thank you Julie, Tiffany, and Julie's Mom for the abundant love and attention you give our pups!”

“We had an absolutely fantastic experience boarding our dog Mac with Yick-hong and couldn’t recommend him and his fiancee more highly. Our dog can be pretty nervous in new environments, but he warmed up to them almost immediately, which gave us so much peace of mind right from the start. We received daily updates with photos and thoughtful notes, which truly meant the world to us. It was so clear that they treated Mac like their own — with patience, affection, and genuine care. Every update reassured us that he was not just being watched, but truly cared for and loved. Throughout our entire trip, we felt completely comfortable and confident that Mac was in excellent hands. We are so grateful and will absolutely book with them again!”


About: Growing up my parents had at least two dogs in our home at all times. My school vacations were spent on farms with dogs, cats, cows, and horses. I have a lifetime worth of experience with all animals and my love for them is endless! I can't wait to meet some of your fur babies! I work 3 days a week at a part-time job so I have lots of time to spend with your furry babies on weekdays and weekends. I have a 2 year old dog who does not use a crate. I have a large yard near a state park with lots of friendly dogs!
Southborough pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was looking for care for my pup last minute for the Thanksgiving holiday and while a number of sitters reached out to help, Sandra stood out with her friendly nature and well-informed questions to ensure she and Ella would be a good fit. I’m so glad they were because Ella had a blast. Sandra was so welcoming when we arrived to drop Ella off and was quick to befriend our very energetic pup. She even had fresh water out and toys at the ready to help her feel at home. I felt completely at ease leaving Ella in her care and the daily updates and photos during her stay maintained that. Sandra was very understanding of Ella’s young, vivacious nature and accommodated her needs with such care. She was mindful of Ella’s history as a rescue and navigated Ella’s novice-level manners with grace. It honestly felt like Sandra took care of our pup as if she were her own. One of the picture updates Ella was even sleeping belly up! Which for her especially is a big deal with someone new. I would absolutely have Sandra take care of Ella again, she was wonderful with her and so incredibly kind to us. An absolute gem.

Jennifer was fantastic! She took such good care of my dog. She sent me photos and updated me daily. I'm so glad i found her. Her family was a bonus as well, they were genuinely happy to play and cuddle with my pup. I would highly recommend them, and will be using Jennifer again in the future.

Abby is a 10 yr. old Havanese - and the most universally beloved member of our family. Thus, our prime concern while way from home was Abby's well being. Christine alleviated those concerns completely. Christine is professional in planning for the care of your dog. She checks for compatibility with her dog, Genji, and her children before she agrees to board your dog. Christine is a great communicator before and during the boarding period. Her daily pictures and short videos of Abby sent to us while we were away were a delight. Our extended family could see Abby thriving and visibly enjoying her stay with Christine. (We were not sure Abby would want to leave Christine to return to our home as Abby looked so happy and occupied.) Christine was a "real find."
