“Jack had a such a great time with Freddi. She took my high energy boy to walk in the woods everyday, which he always enjoyed. Sent plenty of pictures and updates daily. I truly appreciate the care and would be in contact again!”
“Our pets recently stayed with Nicole, and they loved being with her. Nicole sent updates and photos while we traveled which showed how much they were relaxed and enjoying their time with her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a someone to care for their pets while traveling.”
“Akhil was a fantastic caretaker for my dog, Sparkles. I received constant updates and pictures of him. He received plenty of attention and opportunities for walks and lounging around. Their dog was very friendly and was welcoming to mine.”
“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!”
“Maria was amazing. She was so thoughtful and kind to me and Theo. She sent daily photos and took extra care of Theo when he felt anxious about the fireworks. She hand fed him until he felt comfortable. Although I do think he loved all the attention she gave to him. She really spoiled him and I think he is missing her and Gracie. Definitely will be using Maria as often as possible.”
“This was our first timing having someone watch our puppy. Luciana and her family were great and it was obvious that they loved dogs and would take good care of him. I got photos and texts through out his stay which helped me not worry and enjoy my vacation.”
“Yenny and her family where extremely amazing 🥰 my Winnie was happy being around them for being her first time spending the night out of her comfort 🩷🫶🏼 she did well I will definitely book again in near future with yenny. Definitely recommend her 💯”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and have cared for dogs of different ages and personalities throughout my life. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs who may need extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I’ll treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🏠🐾 Home Boarding I offer a comfortable, loving home environment for small and medium-sized dogs 1 year and older. I keep boarding small and personal, with a maximum of two dogs at a time, so each dog receives plenty of individual attention and care. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and socialization. I’m happy to care for dogs who enjoy having other dogs around, as well as dogs who are more comfortable being the only dog in my care. Every dog has their own personality and comfort level, and I’m happy to tailor their stay to their individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I have a large fenced in yard for your dog to run around. I also have a stroller for dogs who prefer more of a pampered ride around town than a leash walk. Before accepting a new boarding dog, I prefer to have a Meet & Greet so we can make sure your dog is comfortable in my home and that we’re a good fit. If an in-person meeting isn’t convenient, I’m also happy to arrange a Zoom/video call first. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away. ❤️ I’m am very reliable and available for pet care on my days off, including Mondays,Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays . I can also open additional days on my calendar when I’m available. I enjoy spending time with dogs and giving them the love, attention, exercise, and companionship they need. For drop-in visits, I provide care in your home and follow your instructions carefully. I’ll make sure your dog is safe and comfortable, keep doors and gates secure, and provide plenty of attention and companionship. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home.
“We boarded our dog and cat for a week. Likun is very experienced and attentive in taking care of both cats and dogs. We received daily updates and she also replied to our messages very promptly. Her Border Collie is so sweet and gentil. Our puppy was really happy she has a mature big sister and perfect playmate! The home is well equipped to take care of multiple pets and her backyard is perfect for dogs to play in.”
“Carol and her family are lovely! They took such great care of Stevie. I got a lot of pictures, great communication, updates and was relieved that Stevie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Carol.”
“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.”
“We couldn’t have had a better experience with Betsy and her family taking care of our furry guy. He had such a wonderful time and we received frequent updates with photos. Her kids told us stories about him when we picked him up- they made him feel like part of the family. We hope to have him stay with them again!”
“Guillermo is fantastic. He was attentive to our old pup and wonderfully responsive to us. He is kind and calm, and it was clear our dog felt so comfortable and content. Our dog had an upset stomach and Guillermo was gracious and amazing at taking the extra steps to give him canned food and medicine. He sent great updates and pictures, I wish I had found him sooner and look forward to having him care for our dog again.”
“Jennifer was amazing watching our puppy, Loki! She even provided pet taxi for pick up and drop off! She kept us updated throughout his weekend stay with her the entire time and he loved playing with her 2 pups! Thank you so much!”
“Linda was so kind and sweet withy dog. She sent updates and pictures. She has a great dog-friendly couch my dog loved, and she got non-skid mats to make sure my dog was comfortable. My dog is elderly so can either be sleepy and peaceful or need a little extra TLC, and Linda took great care of her. She was attentive to my dog’s needs, health, and comfort. I would be happy to trust Linda with my dog’s care again!”
“Marie and her husband were wonderful with our sweet girl - they clearly love dogs! She got lots of exercise and cuddles and we got lots of updates. They were also flexible when our flight home got delayed (thank you!). Zelda had a great time, and we would definitely book again!”
“Elizabeth and Neil were great! I had a previous rover flake on me and they were able to take care of my dog last minute. They were very communicative and sent updates. They have a beautiful backyard for the dogs to run and play. They were great!”
“Jackie took great care of our pups, She was kind enough to mett us a couple of day before our appt so are pups could get acquainted with her and her house. Good communication. Will definitely use Jackie for all our pup sitting needs!”

We had such a wonderful experience with Carol! Our Boxer, Jarvis, stayed with her and absolutely loved his time there. It was clear when we picked him up that he felt comfortable, happy, and so well cared for. Carol was incredibly kind, attentive, and loving toward Jarvis, and we really appreciated knowing that he was in such good hands while we were away. She made him feel right at home, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was having a great time. Jarvis came home happy and tired, which is always the best sign! We would absolutely trust Carol with him again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care she gave Jarvis! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Gulnoza provided a warm and safe home for our cat while we were away for a few days on holiday. We were nervous since Mila is usually sensitive but we were given several videos and photos of her each day with recaps so we never missed her. We could see how much love and care she received while we were away. I would definitely recommend this family to care for a cat!
Halle had an excellent time with Luke again! She went on hikes & went for swims, and got lots of pets & belly rubs. I cannot speak highly enough for the superb care & attention that Luke provided her. We had a great / stress-free weekend knowing that Halle was having a great weekend too. Halle's already looking forward to her next stay with Luke!
Marcia is spectacular. She offers everything you hope for when leaving your pup. It’s our first time with her and the 3rd place I’ve tried with my wheaten because of his anxiety. He did really well and found himself a second home where his fun, playful side shone. I highly recommend Marcia. Thank you Marcia. 🙏
Debbie was incredible, and I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone. She provided regular updates on our dog with photos; this put us at ease while we were traveling, so we could truly enjoy our time away. She treated our dog like her own, and we really can’t thank her enough. Will 100% be a repeat customer.
Heather took great care of my goldendoodle (Riva) for a weekend. Heather was very communicative and shared pictures and updates throughout the stay, and it was comforting to see Riva looking so relaxed and at home. She seemed to fit right into Heather's family! I would definitely recommend Heather to others.
Booking with Noila was a great experience. She took amazing care of our two cats, kept us updated with cute photos every day, and was highly communicative. It’s such a relief to know your pets are in good, capable hands. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future needs!
Everything went absolutely wonderfully with Olivia and Adam. We left our dog Chelsie with them for a long stay of about 2.5 weeks, and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Chelsie can be a bit anxious when staying with someone new, and to be honest, we were anxious too. We know all the little quirks and routines of our dog, but of course it’s impossible to explain every tiny detail ahead of time. Still, they handled everything incredibly well and made her feel comfortable very quickly. They constantly sent photos and updates, which I was extremely grateful for because it allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip without worrying. It was very clear from the updates that Chelsie was happy, comfortable, and having her own little vacation. At one point we joked that she might not even want to come back home after staying with them. Highly recommend them, especially if you’re nervous about leaving your dog for a longer stay.

There are 3,995 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Wakefield. About 90% of Wakefield 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.
