“Sean was a great host to our 13lb Jack Russell Terrier. He was very diligent about his likes and daily routines. He took him to daily hiking, get him to swim which we couldn't do. His dogs were a great buddy to Oslo, Sean sent us video's, pictures of Oslo every day so we felt very comfortable during our time off. Sean is a loving with great heart and caring host, I would highly recommend him.”

“Charlie loves Ilya’s place and all the fun friends he meets on a visit. Ilya has been so helpful and flexible with drop off and pickup times while my apartment is having realtor showings and I’ve been on longer work trips, saving me a lot of stress!”
“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!”
“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!”

“My very sweet, energetic and sometimes anxious Ruby had another very happy stay with Michelle. I can tell how much Michelle loves dogs in how thoughtful she is interacting with them. Although I miss Ruby while I'm away, it is so so comforting knowing she is with Michelle, & getting such wonderful attention & care. Thank you, Michelle!!!”
“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!”
“Mars had a wonderful time with Ann & Jim! They sent lots of photos, took him on adventures at the fells and walks featuring lots of fetch! He was happy to be there and came home tired and happy 🤗”
“John did an amazing job watching my dog LD! He took care of her for 9 nights 10 days while we were on vacation. He provided daily updates and I never worried or wondered what she was up to. My dog has separation anxiety and blues and John dealt with it by adjusting to what she was comfortable with regarding feeding schedule and going outside. He is a very trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you again John!”
“My dog was so excited to go back to Todd’s for an overnight stay. He had the best time whenever he goes there, gets plenty of walks, lots of attention, and comes home such a happy camper. Todd is a trusted sitter for us and I will continue to book with him whenever I need somewhere for my dog to stay!”
“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.”
“Lynne took such great care of Napoleon. Napoleon is a senior dog with diabetes and cushings disease and Lynne had never given insulin shots to a dog before but took it on without fail! Napoleon came home super happy and healthy. We are so thankful to have found Lynne to care for our little old man while we went away for the week.”
“Zora was so well cared for here! Kate checked in halfway through our dog’s one day stay to let us know she had been walked and snuggled plenty. We will definitely reach out again when we need a place for our pup to stay!”
“The best experience I have ever had with a sitter! Christina was extremely flexible and communicative! She provided photos of our pup having the best time all weekend and frankly our dog was less than impressed with us when we picked her up. Will definitely be booking her again.”
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Watertown
We're very happy to have found Andrew on Rover and we'll definitely book with him again. Percy enjoyed his stay and was exceptionally well taken care of in Andrew's home. We were away for the weekend during a big storm when it was truly challenging to walk a dog. Nonetheless, Andrew made sure that our energetic Percy got some outside time and stimulation. Andrew's calm and confident personality was a perfect match for our big goofy golden retriever, who at 2-1/2 years old is still in puppy mode. Thank you Andrew! We appreciate you!
We had a great experience with Maisy caring for our dog, Cosmo! We booked on short notice, and she was communicative from the start and worked us into her schedule. Cosmo had a wonderful time playing with her dog, Waffles, and Maisy sent lots of photos and updates that showed us they were having a blast. When our flights home were delayed, Maisy was incredibly flexible and worked with us on the logistics of an alternate pickup time. We really appreciated her love and care for Cosmo, and we would absolutely book with her again!
Nitzan and her family were wonderful! They helped out cricket and I with a last minute booking, and were very flexible and communicative. Cricket came back from her weekend happy and healthy, and overall it was an absolute pleasure to interact with them and leave cricket in Nitzan’s care.
Lee was fantastic! My Coco is 15 and slowing down. He immediately recognized her needs and was truly attentive to them. She made new friends both canine and human, got plenty of exercise and was beautifully groomed! We are so grateful to have found her a new friend. Thanks Lee!
We had the pleasure of meeting Andy and his partner with our dog Gabby and they were instantly likeable and very understanding and accommodating. They looked after her so perfectly despite the tough weather, they made sure to send us regular updates with every single walk, which we so appreciated! It made our time apart from Gabby just a tiny bit better with every new piece of content. The communication, drop-off and pick-up all went so smoothly that we would not hesitate to go back to them again, next time we have to leave our precious dog with someone.
Andrea is fantastic! I was thrilled to book Andrea’s services, as she is the ultimate professional. We needed 5 nights of overnight coverage for our 3-year-old labradoodle puppy. Andrea very kindly answered all my questions about how she would care for Sammy. She took excellent care of him for 5 days and nights. Throughout Sammy’s stay, Andrea sent many pictures of a very happy puppy. Sammy typically has a lot of eye secretions, and Andrea followed all of our instructions and did an excellent job of keeping his eyes clean and healthy. Sammy came home happy, healthy, and tired from playing with the other dogs. We feel so lucky to have found Andrea and highly recommend her dog sitting and boarding services!
Kathryn is amazing! Her proactive and reliable communication made us feel at ease while away. This was the first time our dog has stayed with someone outside of our family, and Kathryn made both our dog and us feel safe and well-taken care of. We are so grateful for the care and attention she showed our pup.
Grateful beyond words for how attentive and caring Binyu was. Marbles, our cat, is a shy girl but she quickly warmed up to Binyu and her husband Jay. With her excellent communication, daily photos & above and beyond care, we will definitely be reaching out again for Binyu’s pet-boarding services. Thank you again!
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.

There are 4,210 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Watertown. About 90% of Watertown 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 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.
