“Svetlana was amazing with Jack! She watched him for about two weeks during Christmas and New Years while I was away. I couldn’t have been more grateful or happier, I received updates/photos regularly. She absolutely loves dogs and it truly shows. I can’t wait to book Svetlana again! She is dependable, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with.”
“Teddy had such a great time with Phoebe, Ben, and their sweet dog July! He usually sticks to his humans and doesn’t hang out much with other dogs, but July kept him great company during his 3-day stay. Phoebe was super nice and sent us daily pics of Teddy, which made us so happy. We’ll definitely have Teddy stay with Phoebe again!”
“Kira is amazing. Our dog always come back well cared, healthy, and happy. She is also great about providing updates and pictures on a daily basis. Our puppy loves Kira and being dropped off to play with other dogs under her care.”
“Nancy is very kind, loving and caring. My dog is old and timid and Nancy handled her care with exactly what my dog needed. Nancy is very gentle. I would highly recommend Nancy.”
“Jennifer took such good care of Archie and his special medical needs. He did not seem stressed at all. She sent me updates multiple times daily. I would highly recommend her.”
“Meli was a great sitter! She’s very friendly and attentive. She also has great communication and gave us plenty of updates. I can tell our puppy had a great time while staying with her 😊”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing! She was easy to coordinate with, provided plenty of updates (including some really adorable photos), and made our time away stress free because we knew our dog was in great hands!”
“Michelle was great and super responsive and a great communicator! She took Sansa very short notice without a problem! Her two dogs were great playmates for Sansa! Wonderful experience”
“Hanna did great with our dog. We had an emergency situation and had to fly out of town. She was flexible with our flights/ times. She sent us updates often(we were worried because we didn’t have time for a meet and greet) with pictures which gave us peace of mind. She didn’t mind his need to sleep in the bed. When my husband went to pick him up he was excited to see him but then ran back in the house ! So I would say that was a happy dog! Will use Hanna next time We have to travel”
“Lupa received so much love staying with Rebeca and family. He enjoyed playing with Olivia and his other dog buddies so much that on the many pictures and updates I received from Rebeca, he was smiling on most of them. Rebeca was also very accommodating with me requesting additional care within a short time frame. Lupa enjoyed the outings outside their home and every part of the stay. I feel relieved to know that I can contact Rebeca and family if I need to be away!”
“Hong was great with our energetic 14-month old pup, Archie! Hong took Archie for multiple walks in the woods and dog park visits each day, and sent us photos and videos. We could tell that Archie was having a great time, and that the experiences were very enriching. Archie can have anxiety around new people, especially men, but he really seemed to bond to Hong which was great to see. Archie was totally relaxed when we picked him up, and seemed just as happy to stay at Hong’s house as to get in the car. We cannot recommend Hong highly enough!”
“We boarded our dog and cat for a week. Likun is very experienced and attentive in taking care of both cats and dogs. We received daily updates and she also replied to our messages very promptly. Her Border Collie is so sweet and gentil. Our puppy was really happy she has a mature big sister and perfect playmate! The home is well equipped to take care of multiple pets and her backyard is perfect for dogs to play in.”
“This was our first time leaving Sailor at Kate's house. I was a little nervous about it, because Sailor gets anxious and sad when we leave her anywhere. However, it turned out this was the perfect environment for her. She warmed up quickly and had a splendid time with Archie (their goldendoodle) and the whole family! I love that they only take one dog at a time. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and videos. They are flexible, attentive, warm, and kind. It was the perfect home away from home for Sailor.”
“Arnav was a great sitter for Snoopy. Snoopy loved staying with Arnav and his family. They even took Snoopy to Starbucks to get him a pup cup. Arnav sent me pictures of Snoopy every day while I was away, and I could tell from the pictures that Snoopy was super happy at Arnav's house. If I decide to leave Snoopy in someone's care again, I won't hesitate to contact Arnav.”
“Julie is the best!! I was in a tough spot with a flight delay and she was so kind and accommodating helping to drop off my dog and checked in to make sure we got back okay to take care of Willow that that night. I’m sure Willow would have loved if the flight was delayed even more so she could spend more time with Julie because her life seemed full of adventures and love all week. Huge thanks to Julie would definitely love to have her watch willow again!”
“Sara is very professional, she replied to her msgs fast. She took excellent care of my Bailey for 2 days while I was away. Her backyard is big and fenced, Bailey enjoyed his time running around and playing. I would definitely rebook again anytime I need someone to take good care of Bailey and also recommend her to any of my family and friends in the area.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stow
Pilar has been caring for our dog Keto for many years. Keto adores Pilar, and seems to think of her time with her as camp. Her tail starts wagging furiously the minute she realizes that Pilar has arrived to take her away, and she rarely looks back as she trots to the car. Pilar takes Keto and other dog buddies for walks in the woods and provides plenty of playtime in her large yard. Pilar is attentive to communication regarding drop off and pickups and sends us updates and pictures. She has observed and reported on how Keto is changing as she ages, from being the alpha to the older lady. We would only use Pilar's services if her schedule accommodated us!

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Stow home-away-from-home, 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 Stow.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Stow 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.

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 .
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.

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.
