“Tara was an amazing sitter for our dog Luna! She was easy to schedule with and sent photo/status updates throughout the stay. We would definitely have her sit Luna for us again and would recommend her to others!”
“Isabel and her husband were the best hosts I could have asked for for my puppy! This was my first time leaving my dog, Wren, overnight anywhere for longer than 1 night and they were phenomenal with her. Isabel was constantly sending me updates and the most adorable photos which provided me with so much comfort knowing that Wren was taken care of. Her dogs and mine got along great so knowing that she had some friends with her the whole 8 days was a HUGE bonus. It's so nice knowing that when I travel again in the future, I have someone safe to leave my dog with. Thank you Isabel!”
“If Indy could talk, he would tell me that he loves spending time at Raphael’s house!! Raphael is it perfect match for Indy and his energy! I’d have Indie stay with him anytime!!”
“We had a great experience! He took excellent care of my dog and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. He kept me updated with regular messages and lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. My dog looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Daran was awesome. He sent us pictures and videos. It was very clear the boys were comfortable with him. We knew they would be fine because we had already done a meet and greet but the pictures and videos made us more at ease. I would (and have) recommmend Daran to all my friends.”
“Devorat was wonderful in every way - she's a sweetheart and kept in touchwith texts, photos and videos and I could see my pup was so happy with her and the other dogs!”
“We have a hard time trusting our dogs with anyone but our family. When we found ourselves in of someone to care for our girls while on family vacation, I found Erica here on Rover. Not only was she close and affordable, more important she had many raving reviews. I’m so glad we chose Erica to watch our girls. She was very communicative and sent pictures of them daily. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Melissa took great care of our dog while we were away for a wedding! Easy to communicate with, sent regular pictures and updates, and our pup came home nice and tired from all the fun!”
“Repeat client here! We love how communicative Yunshu is! We got so many videos and pictures while we were away, which was great. She goes the extra mile and brushes our dog, cuddles her, and keeps her calm during thunderstorms. We feel lucky to have found her for our dog.”
“Anely was amazing! She sent lots of pictures, and made us feel totally comfortable leaving our pup with her for a week. She communicated excellently and worked with us on our last-minute booking after our other sitter had to cancel. Thanks so much Anely!!”
“Rhody always has a great time with Jessica and Abu. It's difficult leaving him as he gets older and Jessica is the only one we trust. She loves him like her own and takes such good care of him. Thanks to her we are able to travel knowing he's in the best hands. Always a 5 star experience!”
“Celina took good care of Ollie. When we picked her up she was happy to see us but was in no hurry to leave Celena. We will consider Celena next time we need a dog sitter”
“I couldn’t have imagined a better first experience with in-house boarding. They were incredibly understanding of my dog’s needs, and Masha loved them from the very first meeting! They even went the extra mile to ensure she was eating well and gave her treats, which I truly appreciated. I would recommend them hands down to anyone—it was such a relief to know she was in such great hands.”
“Briana has been watching my dog since she was about 4 months old and I wouldn’t trust anyone else! She goes weekly for day care visits and boards with Briana whenever I am away. She sends daily pictures and truly cares for my pup like she is her own.”
“Lisa is an amazing sitter! She sent lots of updates and I knew that my dog was in great hands the entire time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and would love to have her watch my dog again.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Swansea is $60
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Swansea
Tara was a very friendly person to my dog. He seemed to have enjoyed his stay with her. She was very in tune with my dogs needs and I so appreciate that. We look forward to asking her in the future when we go away if she would watch him again. Thank you Rover.com
We can’t say enough good things about Ashley & Nick! They watched our mini Bernedoodle for 6 days and we have never experienced such great Rover sitters. Oliver is part of our family and it means so much to us that he was treated the same way with Ashley & Nick. We would highly recommend them as your next sitters.
Nadia and her family were so accommodating for our first big trip away from Goose - our 1 yr old Daschund. She is really on top of communication, sending photos and great at addressing challenges if they arise. We couldn't have asked for a better first long stay. Hope to see her again - Thank you so very much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Swansea is $57 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $70 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.
As of November 2026, there are 1,286 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Swansea. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Swansea can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
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 Swansea home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Swansea.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Swansea. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Swansea 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. 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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. 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.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
