“We have finally found the perfect babysitter. Jasmine made us feel safe, comfortable and completely at ease after the first day. The daily communication complete with daily videos is unmatched. This is a deeply caring person who cares for her charges as though they were her own. We can’t thank her enough and will always use jasmine and recommend her to anyone who will listen. Thank you Jasmine for a safe and secure environment.”
“Alex is wonderful with my elderly dog, Zoe. I appreciate the peace of mind knowing that he's taking great care of her and she's so happy on her own vacation with him. Thank you, Alex!”
“Jennifer is the best that could have happened to our puppy. She is incredibly caring, attentive and responsible. She was constantly in touch with us and sent photos. She treated everything the puppy needed with understanding and great attention. Highly recommend Jennifer for your dog.”
“Our malamute, Sputnik, loved his time with Ana! He was happy to get dropped off and happy at pick up. Feeling so grateful we found such a great sitter so we can feel comfortable traveling!”
“My pup came back tired after being well taken care of! Paula is very skilled in taking care of so many different breeds! My pup loved it and cannot wait to go back! Highly highly recommend!”
“Ana Maria was great with my puppy. She was very caring and understanding of my puppy separation anxiety, and also she was flexible with my last minute schedule change. She was truly a blessing during our trip to MA and I am looking forward to come back to MA to visit my daughter and booking with Ana Maria again. 😊”
“We left our dog Wyle with John for 4 days while we went to California for a wedding. We had never been that far away from Wyle and had never left him for that long. We felt completely at peace knowing John was taking care of Wyle. We got regular updates and pictures and we could tell he was being well taken care of and was having a lot of fun! We will definitely have Wyle stay with John again in the future if needed. Thanks John for taking such good care of our boy!”
“Kerrin and Chris were amazing with our dog Lizzie—she had an absolute blast staying with them. They sent daily pictures, which gave us total peace of mind, and it was clear she was being cared for like part of their own family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Great sitter, and treats my dog Widget like family! Extremely communicative, and has a sense of humor about my dog's quirks. Her big yard means my dog has plenty of space to romp around. Since I live in the city, it must feel like a vacation for him, too!”
“Chanel was an amazing host for our senior Shih Tsu, Kody. She made Kody feel right at home. She’s a natural caregiver, but also followed all the instructions and care tips we provided (morning meds, feeding, walks, etc.). Chanel was super communicative and made sure that we were updated during Kody’s stay. What a relief for us! (Thank you, Chanel. We’ll be back).”
“This is the third or fourth time Indy has stayed with Paloma, and Indy once again had a wonderful time. We'll be reaching out to Paloma again next time we need a sitter :)”
“Lisa watched our Zoe over Christmas and was so wonderful! She super responsive and made sure to update us every day to let us know she was doing okay. We’re always a little nervous when Zoe is around other dogs but Lisa has a great setup for them and made sure she did fine! Thanks Lisa!”
“I don't even know where to start. Megan and her little family were amazing with Miles. She gave me regular updates and sent pictures, she answered my emails within a few hours. It was perfect. My pooch got sick and she was amazing at taking care of him and following my recommendations. When I went to pick up Miles it was obvious that he had had a stupendous time with them. I cannot recommend Megan enough. I don't even live in South Boston and I would still go over there to have Miles stay with them. If you are looking for sitters, look no more and book with Megan, Riley and Tom. ”
“Martha has taken care of Oli several times and it is always a relief knowing that we leave our Oli in such good hands! Martha is amazing, caring, and always goes the extra mile to make sure that Oli is having the best time. Highly highly recommend Martha!”
“Will definitely board with Nola and Damian again! From the meet and greet to picking our dog up, they were very easy to communicate with and took great care of Bori.”
“Chloe had a great time with Rachel and her dog Mya! She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times and sent lots of pictures! Very convenient location across the street from a dog park too.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Carlos is hands down the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. He took incredible care of Rex, treated him like part of his own family, and made sure he was happy, loved, and well-exercised throughout the holiday. Carlos took Rex on regular walks in the park, kept us updated, and clearly went above and beyond. It gave us total peace of mind knowing Rex was in such great hands. We couldn’t recommend Carlos more highly and will absolutely be booking with him again!”

I'm so glad we found Natali! She was wonderful with my Yorkie. He can be nervous in new environments, but Natali helped him feel at ease and went the extra mile to make sure he was eating properly. She also sent lots of updates and pics. Thank you, Natali! We hope to see you and Rocko again. 😊
Paloma is absolutely fantastic, I wish I had found her sooner. I left my girl with her for a weekend so I could go away. Her home is perfect for any pet to live their best life. She was so attentive and caring. I was nervous about the fireworks scaring my girl and Paloma was careful to make sure she was as comfortable as possible which put this crazy dog moms heart at ease. Will definitely use her in the future.
This was my first time in the whole 14 years that I’ve left my dogs with a stranger. Gienna never felt like a stranger from the moment I met her. She immediately made me feel safe leaving my kids for an entire week. She sent me updates multiple times a day without prompting. I never had to worry what they were doing. She even finished off some antibiotics with one of my guys. They came home absolutely spoiled. I will absolutely use Gienna again in the future and I would 100% recommend her to anyone (except that means she fills up quickly-totally worth booking early!)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Swampscott on Rover is $49.95 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 3,926 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Swampscott. About 90% of Swampscott 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 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.
