“Belinda took great care of our dog Ollie and sent regular updates and pictures. Ollie is an anxious dog and he seemed very comfortable there. We would definitely have him stay with her again!”
“Our pup, Orla, enjoyed her time at Carol's. Carol was super sweet and her home was lovely; Orla enjoyed the fenced-in turf backyard quite a bit from the video Carol provided. Everything was smooth and went well. Thanks again!”
“Cardinal had so much fun at his small-dog play date!! I appreciated that Betsy took time for a thoughtful meet and greet so that I was sure he would feel comfortable! I was very happy that he could enjoy time outside of his crate with other dogs in a warm and caring environment! Will definitely book again!!”
“Elizabeth and Neil made our anxious goldendoodle feel right at home! They were so great with him, gave him lots of love and attention, and communicated excellently with us, sending lots of great photos and videos throughout his stay.”
“Yesika is a great dog sitter. It was my first time on Rover and I was really worried about leaving my 5 moths old puppy with a stranger, but after meeting Yesika and her partner I immediately felt at ease because you can see how much the love and care for the dogs in their care. Loki had a wonderful time at Yesika's place: I could tell not only from the pics, but from the fact that when I went to pick him up he was staying close to Yesika while we were chitchatting about Loki's stay, and we were ready to leave he wanted to go back in the building with her. Loki also had a couple of pee accidents at home the first day he was in Yesika's care (he was not used to the new house, despite being putty trained in our home) and Yesika handled this with a lot of compassion and understanding. She also gave me a few useful tips about games that she played with Loki to entertain his brain in a positive way and some advice on chewing toys that I had gotten for Loki which could be potentially harmful. Overall I was incredibly happy trusting Loki to Yesika's care and I will do that again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi there, my name is Don and I am an experienced dog owner looking to help families in need of a dog sitter or walker. I figured this would be the best way for me to meet new dogs all the while helping people out! I am able to work from home several days of the week and my hours are quite flexible so I am happy to come up with a schedule that's best for you and your pet. At home, I stay in 1 bedroom condo which would be perfect size to house up to 2 dogs for short or long term. I work with animals at my profession so I am comfortable distributing medication, tending to elderly dogs, and of course grooming! Feel free to message me with any questions, and I look forward to meeting you and your fury friend! -Don My work schedule is very flexible as I’m working from home most of the week. I’m an early riser and usually like to jumpstart my day with a walk. I take your pet’s safety and wellbeing to the upmost level and I’d treat them just as my own. I value the importance of communication so i’ll always send follow up texts and check in pics!
“Mike and Tucker are amazing! I found them at a last minute and it couldn’t have worked out any better. My pup and Tucker got a long so well and she had fun all weekend. I will be back Mike. Thank you so much”
“Akhil updated me often throughout the day. He sent videos as well as photos and it was easy to see how relaxed my dog, Momo was. He let her get her sniffs in during walks and introduced her to a variety of toys. Momo loves destroying plush toys and he was very gracious about her gutting one of them. Momo wasn't overly excited to leave so I'm pretty sure she had a great time. She came home and immediately settled down for a nap.”
“I want to share that Julia took care of Bruno while we were out for the day, and let me tell you, she was fantastic! At first, we were hesitant because we had never left our puppy with anyone else. However, Julia kept us updated with pictures, which really built our trust. Thank you, Julia! We will definitely book her again!!!”
“Heesu has been SO wonderful as a dog sitter for Seymour. He literally runs up to her when he sees her, and I can tell from the pictures he sends that he has a great time hanging out with her while I’m in the office. It’s such a relief knowing he’s been well cared for while I’m at work.”
“I highly recommend Lee...the immediate level of comfort Atlas had as well as myself with Lee and his dog Sharif... The meet and greet went great with others as well... Atlas was in very goods hands and I would no problem booking with Lee in the future... Thankyou Lee”
“Ana was really great with our very anxious 13 year old pug-daschund mix, Honey. We have never left honey with a sitter before and the first time couldn't have been better. Ana managed honeys anxiety issues with utmost care and professionalism. Will definitely look forward to utlizing her services in the future.”
“Andrea has been lovely to work with, my dog Kiko has really enjoyed daycare with her and is always happy when I pick him up. She is very reliable and communicative and has made our first Rover experience a very good one. I will definitely continue to come to Andrea when Kiko needs a sitter!”
“Patti took my two anxious standard poodles poodles for doggy care. She did everything she could to make them feel comfortable which I really appreciated. I liked that she opened her door to me and let me go inside with the dogs to help them settle in before leaving. I also love that she took them to the Fells for a nice walk. I would certainly go to Patti again. She was easy to communicate with and you can tell she genuinely cares for dogs.”
“Bean had a wonderful stay with Steven, Helen and Milo! They have a great set up with fenced in front and back yards. Bean felt immediately at home when we dropped her off and Milo was wonderful with her puppy energy. We would highly recommend them!”

Our pup, Sammy, appreciated the kind and gracious welcome from hosts Sahana and Raman -- and also little Cinnamon! The hosts communicated exceptionally well and have a perfect set up for pets. Our first visit was a doggie daycare meet and greet and we have confidence we will be able to do overnight boarding. We will definitely be rebooking!
Was on a trip to MA for the weekend. Very happy that I found Marcia to take care of my dog for the day while I was out. She provided a lot of pictures and updates without me having to ask. She went above and beyond! She took my dog out for multiple walks as well as letting my dog outside in her fenced in backyard all day. If I am back in MA again, definitely will be reaching out!
Kerrianne and her family were fantastic. Pippa had a great time with them. Our dog can be high a little energy and they had no problem with her. She had such a good time she didn't seem like she even wanted to leave. We will definitely be reaching out to Kerrianne again next time we need someone.
Unfortunately, one of my dogs has cancer and I have a week of early morning trainings for work. (530a drop offs- Yikes!). Yesika is still willing to take her every day, work with the energy that she has that day, and offs care across the day (additional small meals, medication for nausea,etc). So glad that I have this resource.
Brianna has taken such good care of Oliver at a really hard time for him. He is so happy to see her and her home is such warm and cozy for my dog. She communicates perfectly to let me relax after I drop him. You can tell Brianna really loves the dogs she cares for.
Took my greyhound, Judy, to stay with Luci and her family for 2 doggy daycares. Judy is typically timid around new environments but warmed up quickly to them and absolutely loved spending time with everyone and the other dogs being watched. Definitely will be using Luci again!
Leyna was so communicative before, during, and after Finn’s stay. She was happy to answer questions prior to booking and sent lots of photos throughout the day. Finn had a great time playing with her dog and I can already tell he’s going to pass out when we get home. If we have any dog sitting needs in the future we will definitely reach out to Leyna!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Stoneham is $44 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $67 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,895 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Stoneham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Stoneham commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 2,895 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MA. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
