“Sara was wonderful! Savvy stayed with her for a full week and had so much fun running and playing with her new friends. Sara has a great yard and a few puppers of her own - Savvy cannot wait to stay with her again! :)”
“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!”
“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!”
“Erin took great care of our dog and was quick with communication. Receiving daily photos was so helpful. Erin also took the extra step to help our dog when something came up during his stay, we appreciate the care and attention. Thank you, Erin!”
“Vignesh is a very responsive, loving & caring pet care provider. Lali enjoyed the stay with Vignesh. I highly recommend Vignesh for your pets care when you are away.”
“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!”
“Heather was fantastic! Very responsive, sent photos of our dog Lucy and kept us up to date. We will definitely be utilizing her services more often. Thanks a ton Heather!”
“Cathy and her family were great! They were very friendly, welcoming to our dog, communicative and thoughtful. They offered some of their dog's food when we under-measured for the week and sent a daily update. Bowie looked like he had a great time playing fetch in their yard and playing with Brady! Thank you for taking care of him!”
“Laurie took great care of our puppy on short notice for a weekend away. She provided many updates during the weekend and we still felt close to our pup! Nala came home very happy. I recommend Laurie with high regard to anyone looking for pet care!”
“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!”
“Melissa & Axel took amazing care of our golden retriever over a two night weekend stay. They sent us plenty of updates and we could tell that our dog loved the stay with their family.”
“Sul was fantastic. Before I boarded Zoey, he offered to get on a quick phone and video call so I could see the space and feel comfortable. After I dropped Zoey off, he kept me updated every few hours with messages and photos. I’d highly recommend him!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Emily! She was incredibly accommodating for a last minute request and is an absolute sweetheart. I will definitely be using Emily in the future and recommend you do too- your pets will be in the best hands :)”
“Jack had a great time! Came home happier than he has been since our older dog died in early Dec. He had so much fun & doggie activity that he napped from 4-11 then got up to eat dinner!!!”
“Ana took such good care of our pup Rosie! She was so easy to communicate with and sent daily updates, with pictures and videos! Rosie loved playing with her dog, Lola, and came home exhausted in the best way!”
“Kyla is my go-to pet sitter! She and her family treat my dog as part of their family. My dog is always safe & happy when I go to pick her up and is always excited to go back to visit with Kyla. Thank you!!!”
“Marissa took very good care of Conan, who is a bit anxious. He even did well with Marissa's dog, which she did in a controlled and easy way, which we loved because he needs some positive socialization. She took him for walks, and kept us informed, sending texts and pics. Would definitely recommend and use her again!”

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."

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.

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.

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.
