“Vanessa and Diana took amazing care of our dog! They were incredibly flexible when we needed to push our pickup time back a few hours. I could not recommend them highly enough!”

“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!”

“Lori is the best! My pup Luna is 2 yrs old and has lots of energy. She loves all the exercise and adventures she goes on with Lori. Lori is great at sending lots of pics and videos which makes for my time away worry free. Highly recommend Lori.”

“Chanel was incredible - my first time leaving my pup with someone other than family! My pup definitely gave her a run for her money with some weird behaviors but she was incredibly patient and communicative. Lots of updates, photos, and videos throughout the week. Will absolutely book again!!”

Your pet will be in amazing hands”

About: I’ve been a devoted dog owner for the past 18 years and have cared for dogs through every stage of life, from energetic younger dogs to seniors who need extra patience, gentleness and attention. My two beloved dogs, Charlie and Sophie, were a huge part of my life, and caring for them gave me years of hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, medications, changing needs, senior care and, most importantly, understanding each dog’s individual personality. I’ve also regularly cared for friends’ dogs over the years, including dogs of different breeds, sizes and temperaments. I’m very comfortable learning a dog’s routine and following it closely so they feel secure and relaxed while their family is away. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I’m attentive, calm, affectionate and dependable. I treat every dog as an individual and want them to feel safe, comfortable and genuinely cared for — not simply “watched.” I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of individual attention rather than fitting them around a packed day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting, including daytime care and many evenings and weekends. I enjoy being active and walking, so dog walks fit very naturally into my routine. I’m also happy to accommodate a pet’s established feeding, walking, medication and bedtime schedule as closely as possible. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, normal routine, medical needs, feeding instructions, walking habits and any triggers or special concerns before caring for them. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and never assume that what works for one dog will work for another. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the pet and the home and try to keep everything as familiar and predictable as possible. On walks, I pay close attention to surroundings, traffic, other dogs and leash security. I’m also very comfortable with senior dogs or pets who need a slower pace, extra reassurance or more frequent attention.
“Nola and Damian were amazing! They took us last minute for my two young high energy pups. Communication was prompt and professional. My boys came home happy and well cared for, and I would happily book with Nola & Damian again!”

“Maggie really seemed to enjoy her time at Ana's place and was comfortable there. Ana was also very flexible with the scheduling. She also took great pictures and kept me updated throughout the stay. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again for boarding.”

“Yang was so great with our dog! We got daily updates with pictures and videos. She was also so wonderful to us, our flight was canceled and rescheduled for 2 days later. Luckily we were able to get out the following night but Yang was so accommodating and kind while we were in a state of worry. Lucky will be back in a few weeks for a second stay!”

“Howie runs into Elizabeth and Rodrigo’s home every time I drop him off like it’s his own home!! That’s all you can ask for as a pet parent!! They are so communicative, flexible and kind.”

“Mandy is cheerful and easy-going. She provided photos of my pet regularly and confirmed that meals were consumed (since our pet refuses to eat at times) and exercise was given. The fenced yard and deck are ample for fresh air breaks and Ruby seemed very much at home during her stay.”

The median cost per night for pet boarding in Swampscott is $65

Natali was amazing! We immediately clicked as soon as we met her, and that includes Pia, of course. We felt so comfortable to leave Pia under her care while we traveled. She sent us many pictures and videos sharing Pia's adventures (that photoshoot video was the highlight). This was our first time leaving Pia with a new sitter, and will definitely not be the last time she gets to spend time with Natali. Highly recommended.

Jennifer was wonderful to our aging dog who has terrible separation anxiety. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing she was home with her all day. She provided several walks per day, and plenty of comfortable places for her to nap. My dog just helped herself to a basket filled with toys. She seemed very comfortable there. Jennifer dispensed eye medicine daily and sent us plenty of updates and photos. Highly recommend.

Julia took such amazing care of my Louie when I had to go out of town last minute! He requires more care and time than athe average cat and she was so great following my directions and providing updates. Louie had an amazing time and I’ll definitely be rebooking in the future. Thanks Julia!!

We’ve used Valeri multiple times now, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! Every time we leave our dog with her, we have complete peace of mind knowing she’s in such caring and capable hands. Our dog absolutely loves going there and feels right at home from the moment she arrives. She and Valeri's dog, Lexi, get along so well and have an endless amount of fun playing together. Valeri is fantastic with communication, sending daily updates and pictures that always make us smile while we’re away. During our most recent stay, our dog happened to be going through one of her picky eating phases. Valeri was incredibly patient and thoughtful, trying different approaches to encourage her to eat and making sure she was comfortable and well cared for. In addition to all the playtime with Lexi, Valeri took our dog on walks, gave her lots of attention, and was very accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up schedule. It’s such a relief to have found someone we trust completely. Our dog is always happy, well cared for, and genuinely excited to go back. We will definitely book with Valeri again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter!

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Swampscott on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 3,852 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.

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.
