About: Hi! I'm a dependable, caring animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a drop-in visit, or loving care while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and any special needs. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for you and your dog. I'm recently retired and love to stay active. My family and I recently lost our dog after 12 years and are looking to fill the void she left. I will treat your dog like my own and will prioritize their safety and happiness. We have a very large fenced in yard for your furry friend to play in. I am new to in-home pet care but have had pets my entire life. I am very reliable and a strong believer in communication and timeliness. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet and greet! I am recently retired and am looking to fill a void in my life since the passing of my dog Pepper. I look forward to getting to know you and your dog(s) and will give them the same love and care that I've given to all of my past pets. I have a large fenced yard as well as well as a handful of hiking trails near my home. I look forward to making your dog feel comfortable with me and my family.
“Our dogs had the best time with Melissa! They were well taken care of and made a few new friends. Melissa was extremely accommodating to our requests for drop off and pickup changes and even offered to meet us closer when our flight got delayed. We would absolutely rebook with Melissa and highly recommend her!!”
“Heather is so sweet & fantastic. She took such good care of my pups. I appreciated her thoughtful communication and compassion for the doggos. I will certainly come back to her again and will recommend her to my friends & family. She's amazing & I'm so grateful to have connected with her!”
“Alex and Joey have been AMAZING in their care of Bruno, our English bulldog. They have shown him (and me) the best of animal-loving open hearts in having him stay with them while I am away. He has stayed twice and is booked ahead for two more stays. They are reliable and knowledgeable, and I recommend them without any hesitation at all. Thank you to Alex and Joey for having him!”
“Stacy was amazing! She communicated very well and was great with our lab! She has a big back yard and welcomed our dog into her home with open arms. We felt very comfortable leaving her with Stacy! 10/10 service.”
“This was the first time Mliss watched my nervous dog and he did great. Good communication with updates and pics each morning. I’ll definitely book with her again.”
“Sarah & Luis were wonderful hosts for our 12 year old dog Bailey. They sent daily pictures & provided daily updates. Look forward to booking with them again.”
“This review is long overdue, as Elaine has sat our large bloodhound mix multiple times and we couldn’t be more pleased with the care he has received at each stay. Elaine is incredibly responsive and accommodating, as there have been times where it looked like she may not be available for certain dates, but after reaching out, she was always able to accommodate Bodhi and incredibly flexible with drop-off and pick up times. She communicates with us daily while away to let us know how Bodhi is doing and sends pictures, which we love seeing while we are away! We also love that Bodhi has some play mates while he is there, as they have their dog, Brady, and other guests that stay at the same time. Bodhi always comes home tuckered out from all of the time spent playing there!”
“Bethany has been caring for our dog for the last month and we are delighted. He is well cared for and loved. It's typically only one day a week. But it's exactly what he needs. Thank you Bethany for being such a great care giver!”
“Ana took such good care of our pup Rosie! She was so easy to communicate with and sent daily updates, with pictures and videos! Rosie loved playing with her dog, Lola, and came home exhausted in the best way!”
“Sarah took excellent care of Ollie. He is a cuddler and he got plenty of those staying with Sarah. He also got great walks (his second favorite thing). We will definitely be visiting again!”
“François is an absolutely amazing individual with dogs. He has a really big yard, a patio and the woods nearby which kept my pupper happy. More so than that - this was the second time I’ve boarded him with François, and around this time my dog was too eager to go with him. He’ll emotionally invest into your dog, ask important questions and your dog will have fun! 10/10 recommend, and will come back.”
“It’s never easy leaving a pup behind when going on vacation, but it is comforting knowing you’ve found someone who I’ll care for them as you would! Our dog Scottie had a blast while we were away with Julia and Hugo, and we got daily updates and pictures of his stay with them. They are very communicative and I would, and plan to rebook with them again in the future with zero hesitation”
“For a recent family vacation we used DogVacay for the first time. Mariann was an excellent introduction to the service. We received daily messages with images, so we always knew our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend.”
“I was very pleased with Sarah’s care of Brandy when she stayed with her this past weekend. Sarah was great about updating me and sending pictures. Her house is very dog friendly and there are lots of toys that her pup shares with guests. Brandy enjoyed her stay, and although she was happy to see me, was not showing any of the anxiety I sometimes see when we are separated for a while, so I know she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for in my absence. I would highly recommend Sarah as a sitter and plan to have her watch Brandy again soon!”
“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.”
“We wanted a loving home environment for our lab while we traveled for two weeks. Laurie and her family provided just that. She kept us updated with regular photos. Our pup came home happy and well cared for.”
“Olivia was absolutely incredible, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Our situation was a little unusual because my cats and I have been displaced from our home due to a mold issue, and one of my boys, Jack, had already been experiencing health symptoms. I was also leaving for a weekend, so this was my first time ever dropping my cats off with a sitter instead of having someone stay in my home. Needless to say, I was pretty anxious. From the very first meet-and-greet, Olivia immediately put me at ease. Her background as a veterinary technician was reassuring, but what truly stood out was how genuinely kind, compassionate, and attentive she is. She took the time to get to know each of my cats' unique personalities, routines, and little quirks. Both of my boys warmed up to her right away, which is saying a lot—especially Jack, who struggles with anxiety. While I was away, Olivia sent frequent updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious they weren't just being cared for—they were genuinely loved. Seeing them so relaxed and comfortable made an incredibly stressful time so much easier. Olivia cared not only for my cats but also for me. She understood the emotional weight of everything we were going through and showed so much compassion throughout the entire experience. My boys came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, communicative, and truly treats your pets like family, Olivia is exceptional. I would trust her with Jack and Gus again in a heartbeat, and I'm so grateful we found her.”
“Emily was amazing, she took care of our puppy so well, and was so sweet with her, also helped me with my first time finding a dog sitter stress and in a very short noticed too! Emily thank you so much”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Upton
Jen was so lovely and replied to my questions often. I always get nervous when leaving Roxy in a new-to-her place, but hearing how she was doing and adapting to the environment set my mind at ease. She was also very gracious and accommodating when my flight was delayed and I had to pick up Roxy later than we agreed. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Jen again!
Jen and her family took great care of our dog and we are so grateful! Hobbes loves to play catch and Jen’s kids played with him frequently based on Jen’s updates and photos. This was our dog’s first time staying with strangers and he seemed sad to leave the kids after. We only interacted with Jen through the app but got to meet her husband and a few of their children for the meet-and-greet, drop off and pick up. We would love to book Jen and her family again in the future!
We had an amazing experience! Our 2½-year-old rescue rat terrier mix is high-energy and can be pretty anxious, but he was so well cared for and looked completely at ease. We loved getting lots of photos and updates, and the fenced-in yard gave him plenty of room to run and play. He came home happy, tired, and clearly loved. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again—highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Upton on Rover is $48.84 per night (as of August 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 3,643 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Upton. About 89% of Upton 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.
