About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for and walking dogs of family and friends. I have also cared for puppies and animals with disabilities. I work from home and have the flexibility to make my own schedule on most weekdays. Afternoons are preferable for dog walking, though I can usually make accommodations for AM walks as well. I will mainly be offering dog walking services, so caring for the animals in my home will likely not be required. However, if a client needs at home care, I am willing to be flexible, depending on their preferences.
“Our lab Bodhi just spent ten days with Rachel. Since we Rachel had pet sat and walked Bodhi a few times in the past six months we were confident that our girl was well cared for. Rachel has been very communicative and reliable. Highly recommend 🐾”
“John is our favorite dog watcher! He always treats our dog so amazingly and sends wonderful updates to keep us in the loop and connected. We HIGHLY recommend John!”
“Christina was amazing - kept us updated frequently with photos and messages and made us feel comfortable during our trip. Our dog also looked very comfortable staying with her. Would recommend her to any pet parent new to Rover. 10/10”
“10/10 every time with Chuck! Has always been available on short notice which is great with my last-minute planning. Always get a bunch of pictures, videos, and updates. And cherry on top - Denver always comes home happy, tired, and with a bag of treats. Couldn't recommend Cheuck more highly!!”
“Monali is amazing and took good care of my dog Maple. She walked my dog, brought my dog to park, prepared lick matt with banana and peanut butter, even bathed my dog(my dog is 50lbs a d have double coat, so lots of lots of work). She is absolutely 💯 I can tell my dog loves her so much”
About: Experienced doggy daycare attendant since 2024. Knowledgeable on dog body language, dog nutrition, administering medication and keeping dogs safe and happy! I have transportation and I am able to take care of your pet in your home or in mine! I currently work at a doggy daycare!! I am able to take your dog with me to play and have potty breaks when the daycare dogs are inside! (Unless they are already attending the daycare they will not be meeting or mixed in with the dogs that do attend) I have two cats who have their own floor of my house, they love doggy companions (if your dog prefers no cat interactions they won’t see them) I love taking long walks around quiet neighborhood, i’d love your dog to join me!
About: I have been a dedicated pet owner and caregiver for over 15 years, with extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to keep a pet’s daily routine, exercise, and feeding schedule consistent while their owners are away. My experience includes everything from daily walking, playtime, and feeding to basic training reinforcement and administering routine medication. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic young dogs to calm seniors, and I take pride in providing a clean, safe, and attentive environment so your pet feels completely at home. As a full-time educator and coach living right near where I work, my daily routine is both predictable and highly flexible for pet care. Because I live close by, I am able to return home during the day for a midday walk, potty break, and check-in. My workday wraps up in the early afternoon around 3:00 PM, giving me plenty of time for longer late-afternoon walks, playtime, and evening care. Whether I am house sitting or hosting your pet, their feeding, exercise, and bathroom schedules fit seamlessly into my day, ensuring they get consistent attention, quality exercise, and reliable care from morning to night. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is maintaining their exact daily routine in an environment where they already feel safe and comfortable. When hosting pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, structured, and safe environment where they are treated like family. In either setting, I send frequent photo updates and clear communication so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Yesika did an amazing job caring for my older dog, Mia. She handled Mia’s special needs—medication, feedings, and separation anxiety—with care and professionalism. I loved the regular updates and photos. It’s clear she truly loves animals. Highly recommend and will book again!”
“Haowen and his girlfriend were wonderful Rovers! I found Haowen after my previously-booked Rover cancelled last minute. Because of the last minute booking, I was very nervous, but Haowen was very attentive and asked a lot of questions up front to understand my dog’s needs and how best to accommodate her. During her stay, I received multiple pictures per day showing her having a wonderful time with Haowen.”
“This was my first time leaving Alfie with Monica and her family and won’t be the last! Monica communicated frequently with me letting me know that Alfie was doing great and enjoying his time with her family and Thor, their cat. She sent me various pics and videos during the day. Alfie had a lot of fun playing ball with the kids and Thor and going on walks. Alfie will definitely miss them! Thank you for taking great care of Alfie!”
“Ilsa is a great dog sitter! She sent me tons of cute pics and videos of my dog during his stay. She lives in a great neighborhood with a yard which I know my dog loved. I would absolutely recommend her services and definitely book with her again!”
“Carol and her family are lovely! They took such great care of Stevie. I got a lot of pictures, great communication, updates and was relieved that Stevie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Carol.”
“We left our 10 month old Leonberger with John for her very first night away from home and it was a great experience! We got so many photos, and it was clear that she was happy, comfortable, and having fun with the other dogs. She came home smelling and looking better than when we dropped her off! We highly recommend John for boarding!”

Rob was great. Was uncertain how my shy-ish new one would do, but Rob arranged a pre-meet that helped ease anxiety on the appointed day. He is clearly a dog guy and relates to them well. Would highly recommend & I intend on availing myself of Rob’s services in the future.
Gulnoza is a wonderful woman and a first-rate cat sitter. I received updates everyday from Gulnoza, and felt confidence my cat was is excellent hands. My cat was just recently adopted and has not settled in, so this was a challenging kitty, but Gulnoza (and her terrific husband) understood the kitty perfectly. Its very apparent they both have love for cats. If you're worried about your kitty-baby, and want to have peace of mind, I highly and unequivocally recommend contacting Gulnoza where your kitty will have its very own room and the best of care!
Luke was amazing. Mongo had one of the best days hiking and snuggling with Luke after his hike. Luke is communicative and sent so many great pictures throughout their visit. I highly recommend Luke for dogs of all sizes. He’s an excellent dog handler and absolute lover of dogs. Mongo is already looking forward to his next visit.
Sahana and Raman were wonderful! They took the time to meet our Red and make sure he was comfortable with them and their Cinnamon while we were still present. They were also very flexible and communicative. Red looked very happy and comfy, both in the many pics/videos they sent through the stay, and when we picked him up after a week. Would definitely book again!
We had such a wonderful experience with Carol! Our Boxer, Jarvis, stayed with her and absolutely loved his time there. It was clear when we picked him up that he felt comfortable, happy, and so well cared for. Carol was incredibly kind, attentive, and loving toward Jarvis, and we really appreciated knowing that he was in such good hands while we were away. She made him feel right at home, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was having a great time. Jarvis came home happy and tired, which is always the best sign! We would absolutely trust Carol with him again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care she gave Jarvis! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our dog, Bailey, had a wonderful time with Mariia & Mikhail – it was very clear from all the photos! We were away for almost two weeks and were initially a little nervous to leave Bailey for so long. Their communication and adorable photos of Bailey having fun, getting a lot of attention, and taking walks put us at ease and made our hearts sing. Our Bailey is 14 years old, so she has some walking limitations, and she has to take medication. Mariia & Mikhail handled everything like pros, and we truly don’t think she could have been in better hands. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to leave their pet with friendly, responsible, and communicative sitters.
She was a wonderful sitter for my dog over three days. My dog really liked her, and she took extra care to help him feel comfortable and less anxious while I was away. She was also very flexible, accommodating, and easy to communicate with throughout the stay. I would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to other dog owners!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Stoneham is $72 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $111 per night. 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.
There are 4,074 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stoneham. About 90% of Stoneham 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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.
