Tracee and family was very welcoming during the boarding of my pet. My dog stay went amazing. Not only did she provide TLC to my dog. Tracee was able to keep in touch with me on the status of my dog and send pictures of the dog. I cant wait to utilize her services again. Definitely a five-star service! Thank you

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!

Nicole does such a great job with my dog zoey! She sends pictures, takes her on walks, and I always know zoey is in good hands at Nicole’s home while I am away. Nicole has watched zoey a couple times now and I will continue to book with her in the future!

Sydney took such great care of our dog. She was understanding of the dog’s needs and ours to make our vacation easy. She made sure there was harmony for everyone in her home, pampered our dog more than we do at home, sent us pup updates (“pupdates”, lol) so we could see her experience. Would recommend Sydney’s pup sitting. We will again.

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!

When we picked up our pup, you could tell her really enjoyed his time with Yulia and her family. He was happy to see us, but I'm pretty sure he would have been equally happy to stay with them. We will certainly be using Yulia's services again in the future.

Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our older aged GSD. Her retriever got along great with our dog and we were very pleased with the level of care provided for our pup when it came to food accommodations (our pup gets anxious when we leave and struggles to eat sometimes). Needless to say, Sarah went above and beyond and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the extraordinary care for our dog as well as all of the communication and photos she provided during the stay. Lastly, Sarah was quite flexible and accommodating with meet and greets, drop off times and pickup times. 10/10 and highly recommend! Thank you Sarah!

Sandra was amazing! She hosted our 2 whippets for 2 weeks while we were traveling abroad and she dealt with a variety of issues as they came up in a caring, thoughtful and communicative manner. She was so caring and kind that we didn’t worry at all as we knew she would always reach out if there were something we should be aware of. Sandra is great!

Su did an incredible job with watching Sydney while I was overseas for a week! He sent daily updates about how she was doing and plenty of pictures too. He took her for multiple walks a day, kept her on a consistent routine, and spent a lot of quality time with her outside in the back yard. Syd looked so relaxed and calm every day of her stay, I could tell she felt safe and happy with Su. Would book again with him in a heartbeat!

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.

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."

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Southborough

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Southborough on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 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 4,294 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.
