“Vista had so much fun during daycare with Junho and Boki! Junho was very communicative of how Vista was doing, making sure she had everything she needed to enjoy her days, from her food, to play and outside time. It is clear that he truly loves dogs and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone with a kind heart to care for their pet.”
“Our dog has a great time with Lee! We were looking for a slower paced daycare option as she gets older (daycare facilities tend to be too overwhelming for her), so Lee and his dog Sharif have been a great alternative for keeping her entertained, but not completely overwhelmed / exhausted.”
“It was a simple partial-day visit but our dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we picked them up. It was our first time using a dog sitter and we appreciated that Ismael sent great pictures of them interacting with the other dogs so that we wouldn't worry. We now feel comfortable with the 4-day stay we've arranged for next weekend, which will be our first overnight stay.”
“Cardinal had so much fun at his small-dog play date!! I appreciated that Betsy took time for a thoughtful meet and greet so that I was sure he would feel comfortable! I was very happy that he could enjoy time outside of his crate with other dogs in a warm and caring environment! Will definitely book again!!”
“We are so happy we found Jenny! Our dog Uli loves going to her house. Jenny takes such good care of him, sends us lots of pictures and videos and treats him like her own. We would absolutely recommend Jenny to anyone!”
“We are visiting Boston for the weekend and needed a daycare for our Chloe so we can visit museums and avoid stressing our furbaby due to the nor’easter rain and keep her warm. We decided last minute to do so and Cindy was available to care for her. She provided us with updates, followed instructions and is very responsive to our messages. Highly recommend booking her. Thanks so much Cindy.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10, have experience with senior dogs! I am at home all the time, and your dog will have my undivided attention I'm home all day, except for running a quick errand or two, so your pet will have my undivided attention! I also love going on walks or runs and cuddling with your fur baby if they'll let me I have a fenced yard where your dog can have supervised playtime and a large living room where your pet and I can hang out. I'm also happy to run or walk walk your dog as often as needed! I can offer intense and safe play for high energy dogs. I will respect your cat's space, but am happy to cuddle and play with toys as needed
“I highly recommend Tara & Logan! They were quick to respond to messages, responsible in checking for any special needs/commands for our pup, great about sending pics/updates, and really caring! Dubu had a blast with them and came home a happy and tired boy! :)”
“Splash had a great day with Natsuko and Luna! The dogs played very well together and were well walked despite the rain. My dog came home happy and tired. Great updates throughout the day!! Splash is looking forward to playing again.”
“Andrea and her family were great with my dog Luke. He took to her immediately and didn't even notice when i left. When I went to pick him up, it seemed like he would have been happy to stay! Andrea's communication was excellent and the pics were great. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andrea to anyone.”
“I could not be happier with Maria and Caesar. My dog, Gary, can be a nervous little guy but by day 2, he was already happy to see Caesar at drop off and Caesar was excited to see him too! Maria sends me pictures and updates every day Gary is with them which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. They’ve been really flexible with drop off and pick up times and have even accepted last minute bookings. I can’t say enough good things about Maria and Caesar and if Gary could talk, I’m sure he would say the same.”
“Yulia and her family are caring and considerate. Sheila, their 8 year old corgie was very cute and friendly too! Peppercorn loved staying with her and playing with her elementary school aged children.”
“Sunil is so kind and attentive, and devoted to making your dog happy. She was careful to ask about treats and how to make my shy pup comfortable. Highly recommended and I hope to use her again soon.”
“August was such a great babysitter for our dog Honey. We really appreciate the care she received including walks and treats. She had a great time playing with their dog Miu Miu. We appreciate it very much.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waverley
Hannah has sat several times for my dog now, and as a frequent Rover pet parent, I can say she is one of the very best sitters I have had in the Boston area. She is 100% reliable, friendly, and clearly loves spending time outside with my dog. As a bonus there is a new, great dog park around the corner from where she lives.
My girl Petunia always has a great time at Jun Ho's!! He takes wonderful care of her, and treats her like he treats his own dog, Boki (including giving her some fresh chicken at mealtime). I would recommend Jun Ho to anyone - we're lucky to have such a wonderful dog sitter we trust and count on.
Susan was able to watch Max on short notice, responded to me super quickly when I submitted the request, and took wonderful care of Max! She sent me pictures throughout the day and my mind was at ease knowing he was having a great time. It is so comforting knowing he was well taken care of!! Thanks so much Susan!
Mia was absolutely wonderful with our 8 week old puppy ❤️ She took such great care of him and made the whole experience completely stress-free despite an early morning drop off. She kept us updated all throughout the day with regular check-ins and adorable photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. She was great a responded in a timely manner as well. She was also incredibly flexible with pick-up time, which we really appreciated 😌!! Mia is kind, communicative, and genuinely caring, and it was obvious that she treated our puppy like one of her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again. I highly recommend Mia to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate Rover sitter 🐾💕

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Waverley commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
