“Piper came back happy from Belinda’s! Belinda was very responsible, flexible, and made sure to slowly introduce Piper to her own pup! If I am back in town with Piper I will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Yang has a wonderful caring family that loves animals. My dog can be scared and nervous about new people and other dogs but he loved Yang and her family. Because of my dog’s behavior, she agreed to do a trial stay. I appreciate how Yang kept me updated on how my dog is doing.”
“Xiuping and her family took care of my dog over the weekend for me- it was such a pleasure! My dog had a great time and the communication was so smooth and pleasant. I will book again!”
“Marcia is terrific! She helped us with a last minute emergency boarding request and provided extraordinary loving care for our 7 year old boxer. Cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“Lori was an absolute delight! She sent us adorable pictures of our pup every night, capturing his joy during their walks and his playful antics around the house. When we finally picked him up, he couldn’t resist running back to her to bid her farewell, even amidst his excitement to reunite with his family. This heartwarming sight reaffirmed the strong bond he had formed with her while we were away. We highly recommend Lori and are already planning to use her services again. Finding Lori has made us feel much more at ease about going away, knowing that our pup will be in good hands and thoroughly enjoying himself.”
“Luke was the best dog sitter for our Jack Russell Terrier! He went above and beyond when our flight home was canceled and was able to accommodate. He was extremely thorough with communicating to us and providing photos of our pup which made us feel so grateful to have someone who loves dogs. We would recommend Luke without hesitation and look forward to having Luke care for our dog again!”
“Betsy and her family created a welcoming environment that made it easy for our nervous dog to adjust. Betsy gave him all the care and attention he needed and was super responsive through our vacation. We will try to book again before we move.”
“Linda was fantastic! She communicated at least twice daily with pictures and responded promptly to any message I sent her. Rosie was well taken care of and pampered just like she is at home.”
“Hi Carol! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Rylie while we were away! We really appreciated you keeping us updated on how she was doing while she was getting acclimated, all of the pics and video clips, and especially your thoughtfulness in offering to run out and get her something else to eat when she initially wasn’t eating — that was so sweet and reassuring she was in such great hands! Thank you so much for going above and beyond. We’d be happy to book with you again in the future! Thanks again! Kim”
“My dog is kept safe and satisfied while with Luciana; I feel lucky to from past experience with this sitter that he is well taken care of when there. Thank you for that!”
“Janette and her family were so welcoming and loving with my dog, Ridley. We got lots of updates and photos of her enjoying her stay, and felt completely at ease leaving her in their care.”
“Séamus took wonderful care of Maybelle during our extended time away! He was very friendly and responsive and sent daily updates, photos and videos. I could tell that Maybelle was being treated very well - like part of the family. It set my mind at ease. She also got along well with Séamus' dog. We would definitely love to book with Séamus again in the future!”
“I can’t say enough amazing things about Likun—she is truly the BEST dog sitter we’ve ever had! From the moment Chewy arrived, he was showered with so much love, attention, and care. 🐾💛 She spent tons of time playing with him and made sure he was always happy and engaged. Her large backyard was an absolute dream—plenty of space for Chewy to run around, explore, and have the time of his life! It honestly felt like a mini vacation for him. What really stood out was the 1-on-1 attention she gave him. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, and Chewy absolutely adored her. I picked him up relaxed, happy, and clearly very well cared for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and full of love for your pup, Likun is it. We will definitely be booking with her again—Chewy can’t wait to go back!”
“Hannah is wonderful! Our dog, Chente, loves staying with her. She is responsive, professional, and always send photos of our dog on their walks or in her house. Will definitely book again.”
“Chanel was amazing with my elderly dog, who is a kind of persnickety old lady. She sent pics regularly (including her very cute toddler son "helping" with a walk) and let me know everything was going well. She was patient and flexible with scheduling and made me feel completely at ease boarding my beloved pup with her. I would love to bring my dog back to stay with Chanel in the future!”
“Bean, our 13 year old pug, had a great stay with Gienna! We got lots of updates/photos and all communication was excellent. We appreciated how much extra patience and love she gave our little old pug.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stoneham
This was our first time using Rover and leaving Piper with someone other than family/friends. We couldn’t have picked a better family to trust her with. Kim sent lots of updates, even one just a few minutes after we left to let us know Piper was already having fun playing with a ball in the fenced in backyard. Piper got lots of love from Brian and the kids too, as evidenced by their coming to say bye to Piper before we left and the fact that Piper came home exhausted (awesome for an Aussie). Their dog, Daisy, was sweet and friendly from the moment they were off leash together. We would definitely rebook with this wonderful family again!
Belinda has been so wonderful working with our quirky and anxious dog! She really went above and beyond getting to know her and making her comfortable, and working with us, even on last minute requests. It is a huge relief knowing that we can leave our dog with such a caring and thoughtful person.
I can't say enough good things about Yesika. We needed someone on short notice and she stepped up to help us out. Dealing with her was an absolute delight and you could tell that she treated my dog very well. Her set up is amazing and she's a real professional. Will absolutely use her again.
Michael is such an amazing dog sitter! Frankie was in heaven on his vacation with Michael and his family because he was able to play fetch essentially the entire time! I got plenty of updates and Frankie was comfortable and made to feel right at home. Frankie is also dog reactive and has special walking/care needs because of that. Michael was super accommodating and understanding of this. I highly recommend Michael!
Julie is great! Scout was so happy at her place and they went on many adventures together. She’s very responsible and made sure we had all the information we needed before and during his stay. Drop off and pick up were easy and we’ll have scout stay with Julie from now on. 😊
Heather took great care of my goldendoodle (Riva) for a weekend. Heather was very communicative and shared pictures and updates throughout the stay, and it was comforting to see Riva looking so relaxed and at home. She seemed to fit right into Heather's family! I would definitely recommend Heather to others.
Everything went absolutely wonderfully with Olivia and Adam. We left our dog Chelsie with them for a long stay of about 2.5 weeks, and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Chelsie can be a bit anxious when staying with someone new, and to be honest, we were anxious too. We know all the little quirks and routines of our dog, but of course it’s impossible to explain every tiny detail ahead of time. Still, they handled everything incredibly well and made her feel comfortable very quickly. They constantly sent photos and updates, which I was extremely grateful for because it allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip without worrying. It was very clear from the updates that Chelsie was happy, comfortable, and having her own little vacation. At one point we joked that she might not even want to come back home after staying with them. Highly recommend them, especially if you’re nervous about leaving your dog for a longer stay.
For the past few years, I've been so lucky to be able to trust Carol with Copper when I have to travel. She has taken such good care of him every time, keeping me updated with lots of pictures and any concerns. While this is the last time I will be able to hire Carol to dogsit, as Copper and I are moving to California, we wish we could take her with us. It's going to be hard to find someone to do nearly as good of a job! You will be very missed!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Stoneham on Rover is $77.26 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,006 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Stoneham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Stoneham sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Stoneham landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Stoneham home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Stoneham.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Stoneham sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
