“Thank you Alex so much for taking care of Moab during July 4th weekend. Alex accommodated short notice boarding and very flexible with pickup/drop off time. Tons of update pictures he sent throughout the days. No issues with the stay whatsoever. I trust Alex caring for my senior dog. I will definitely use Alex next time when I’m out of town. No doubt!”
“Kira and her family did a great job at looking after Bella. She came home happy and healthy. We love the home from home environment and received so many updates and pics of how Bella was doing. I would definitely recommend! Kira was very accommodating with our last minute booking too.”
“We've used Rover sitters many times, and Yick-hong is one of the best! He clearly loves dogs and was great with our four-year old beagle Ruthie. He took her for a variety of walks, gave her doggie puzzles to solve, and snuggled with her on the couch. He sent us photos and videos two or three times a day. Will definitely call on him again to take care of our pooch.”
“My first time on Rover and first time on an extended break w/o my pup, and I was not anxious, but very relieved to know that he was in such great care at Robert's family home. I received daily status updates with photos that made me glad to know that my pup felt comfortable being away from home. Robert & his family made this a 5-star experience and I 1000% recommend their services.”
“I can't even count the number of times we left Marvel with Jing! Jing truly loves our dog and treats her as her own. It is such a comfort to have Jing as our go-to dog sitter - we wholeheartedly recommend!”
“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”
“Su took such good care of my sweet girl!! His home is a lovely space and is very welcoming for a visitor. He sent detailed updates with photos so I always knew my pup was doing great. He really seemed to care about her happiness and well-being! I am so grateful! I hope to use his services again!”
“We had such a wonderful experience booking with Tomoe! Yoda was treated just like family and it’s safe to say he was right at home! Thank you for taking such great care of him and sharing such cute pictures and videos!”
“Ye and family were excellent with my senior dog Jake. They sent me updates every day and catered to Jake’s needs as an older pup (eating habits, meds, frequent potty breaks). Jake also met a few other pup friends on his visit. Would love to have Jake stay again in the future.”
“Julie was amazing, it’s no wonder she has star sitter status! I always get nervous leaving my dog with new people, but she sent lots of pictures and updates about how he was doing. Seymour came home so content and relaxed!”
“Archer was in great hands with Eric! Excellent communication and trustworthy. He had a great time, got lots of exercise, and we would totally book with Eric again. Thank you!”
“Yulia took great care of my Barron and always responded quickly to all messages. She was also so kind and flexible when my pickup time was delayed due to traffic! I would recommend Yulia to others. Thank you!”
“Yi was fabulous! She took great care of our ragdoll kitten, Pudding. She is incredibly responsive and sends multiple pictures and videos every day. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Francois is everything you could want in a pet sitter. He’s very obviously a true animal lover — kind and caring — and he’s very responsible. We left our 4 month old Airedale puppy with him for 4 nights while we went overseas, and it was such a comfort to have Francois send us regular updates and photos showing what a lovely time he and Biggles were having. If you are looking for a loving home-away-from-home for your pet, you have found it. Thank you, Francois!!”
“My dog Moose had a great time at Kristina’s during my weekend away. She was very responsive and sent photo updates throughout the weekend. I felt so comfortable knowing Moose was in good hands while I was out of town. I will definitely use Kristina’s services again!”
“We had to leave our dog for 17 days. We've never left him anywhere for more than a week. so, we looked very carefully for the right home, and we found it. When we finally picked him up, he looked happy and relaxed. Holly sent us photos and updates throughout our trip. We were so happy to have found a family we could trust with our pet. And now we have a place we can leave him when we need to go off on our own. Big win. Thanks, Holly & family & River.”
“Zelun took fantastic care of our dog for over a week during Thanksgiving! Our dog usually takes a few days to perk up and get used to her new situation, but she settled in after the first night! Zelun sent daily pictures and videos from walks and afternoon sun naps, and our dog looked sooooo happy in every picture. Would 10/10 recommend.”
“Shuhua is very caring and takes good care of my dog. She is responsive and considerate- she always sent the photos of my dog to keep me updated. I recommend her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waban
This was our first time using Rover, and Holly made us feel completely at ease from the start. Mochi takes a while to warm up to new people and situations, and Holly was so experienced and patient with her that we never had to worry. She was also a great communicator and sent us regular updates and photos while we were away. Mochi was in wonderful hands! We would absolutely recommend Holly and will definitely use her again.
Su took such fantastic care of Fiona. From the start, we could tell that she felt at ease. Throughout her stay, her body language in the pictures showed that how comfortable and happy she was. Su kept us well informed, was very attentive to her needs and was very flexible with us. We'd love to have Fiona stay with Su again, thank you for taking such good care of her and giving us peace of mind!
Kim is one of the kindest and sweetest people ever. She took excellent care of my pups, communicated well, and sent photos throughout the day. She has earned my trust, and I plan to use her as my dogs’ primary dog sitter. Thank you for taking care of Lucky and Petunia; they had such a great time and will miss you and your family!
We had such a wonderful experience with Sana! Since we were traveling abroad, she went above and beyond by driving to pick up our Floofy from another sitter and caring for her for the remainder of our trip. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, we could tell how loved and well cared for Floofy was by how happy and comfortable she seemed when we picked her up! We’re so grateful to Sana and would absolutely recommend her! ❤️🐾
Amazing boarding service! So genuinely loving and caring sitters. My dog, Luke (10), had his own vacation in their home while we were away for 8 nights - lounging around in their bed (!) and chasing after the bunnies in their yard. They are very attentive and responsive, sending us lots of photos and messages about his "vacation". We will definitely return!
Mayra was very lovely to work with and was SUPER flexible and accommodating. I was kind of a pain in the butt given all my schedule changes 😂. But she was more than happy to accommodate with watching Kira. Took a load of stress off knowing my pup was in good hands and i didnt have to worry. She also provided tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how she was doing. Definitely recommend her to anyone!
She took good care of Minnie while I was away for over a week. Everything went smoothly, and I had no issues during her stay. Communication was fine overall, although I would have appreciated more regular updates and photos without having to ask. Overall, she was reliable and I would consider using her again.
Katherine was amazing! We got to set up a meeting beforehand and she was very open to everything and responsive! Our dog, Lena, is a very shy girl around new people, but she warmed up to Katherine super quick! We got plenty of pictures/updates during the stay and will definitely be going back!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Waban
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Waban on Rover is $55.5 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,175 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waban. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Waban sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Waban landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Waban 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 Waban.
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.
You and your Waban 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.
