“Lupa had a great time with Jing and her family!! I received pictures of him and updates during his stay and I felt at ease knowing he is having a great time playing with his doggy friends and being taken great care of. I will definitely book again when I need a sitter for him!”

“Kristen and Bobby were great! They were quick to respond and when I left my dog with them I immedietly felt like he was in good hands. You can tell they are dog lovers! They sent updates throughout the day and were patient and understanding of my dog as he got used to being at a new spot.”
“This was my first time on Rover and my yellow lab Gus had a great time with Rebeca and her family! She provided photo updates and was very friendly. They live on a nice neighborhood and have a great home for dogs to feel at home and play!! Thank you again. We will definitely be booking again with Rebeca”
“Julie and her family have been taking amazing care of Luca a few days a week for me while I adjust to a new work schedule. They really love him and treat him like their own. I love seeing pictures from their outings and walks! Luca is always excited to see them when I drop him off! As a new puppy mom I was nervous to leave him with anyone but Julie and her family made me feel so at ease. Would 10/10 recommend their services!”
“Dolev was very sweet with my anxious puppy. She asked a lot of good questions at the meet and greet- being thorough so both of our expectations could be met. The updates during his stay set my mind at ease.”
About: I grew up around dogs my whole life so I’m used to being around them. I also have had one other dog before and now have a mini dachshund. I’m very comfortable with taking care of dogs and having them in my space. I work a full time job at home, but I’m in control of my own schedule and am very flexible. I’m also available weekends and in the summer, I’m even more flexible. I take my dog out 2-3x a day depending on weather. We go on walk across the street at the park for about 15-20 min and when we are back inside, he is allowed to roam freely. He eats 2x a day with snacks in between and he always has water out. I play with him as much as I can throughout the day to make sure he doesn’t get too bored with his day too! My apartment is always clean to ensure that my pup doesn’t get into anything he isn’t supposed to. Lastly, my apartment building is secure as you need a key fob or someone to buzz you in to enter the building.
“Vanessa was a wonderful sitter for our dog, Finn. My puppy had plenty of playtime and lots of exercise. We appreciated the frequent updates. It was clear that Finn was well taken care of!”
“Chelsea watched our 4 month old puppy for the day and did a fantastic job. Our dog was comfortable being left with Chelsea and she sent us photos throughout the day to keep us updated on how things were going. We will definitely be reaching out to Chelsea again in the future to watch our pup!”
About: I work as the Daycare and Kennel Supervisor at a Pet Resort in NH. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and temperaments, and can take care of dogs with special needs including administering medications or even catheterization, if necessary. I am Canine CPR and First Aid Certified. I am also an NREMT certified EMT. I've had 4 dogs of my own at one time, and have both trained and groomed them since puppyhood! I currently work Monday through Wednesday, but am home all day Thursday through Sunday to care for your fur babies! With 2 dogs of my own, I make sure that I spend as much time at home with them as possible. I have a very large yard that is fenced in on 3 sides, with 100ft tethers to give them the freedom to run around and explore the whole property. I have 2 very playful pups that love having friends over! I can crate a dog, if needed, or have multiple raised beds and large dog pillows with blankets to keep everyone cozy. The pups' comfort, safety, and well-being always comes first!
About: I bring genuine care and patience to every dog I work with. I’ve personally cared for a Husky for the past 4 years, so I understand the importance of exercise, attention, consistency, and handling high-energy dogs with confidence. Huskies require a lot of patience and structure, which has helped me become very attentive to dogs’ needs and behaviors. I also have experience walking other dogs of different sizes and personalities, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s energy level and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just wants someone calm and comforting around, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I can help reinforce basic training, maintain routines, provide regular exercise, and make sure pets get plenty of attention and affection while you’re away. I’m especially good with energetic breeds, shy dogs that need patience, and dogs who thrive on companionship and consistency. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their dog is in caring and dependable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, active, and cared for. I make time each day for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving pets attention so they feel safe and relaxed while in my care. I have a Fenced in yard, so sometimes I will let them run around the back yard, play fetch. And after a few minutes take them on a quick walk. I update Dog parents with Videos and photos so they get updates on there dogs well being and i will always ask for specific diets dogs may have so there routine doesn't change when they're in my care!
“My Idgy was so excited to spend the day with Amanda and her family. She hopped right out of the truck and ran right into the house when Amanda greeted us at the door. Idgy got lots of playtime with Amanda and her pup. She is an asset to have on Rover.”
“We brought our 4.5 m/o puppy to Krystyna and Sara for his first doggy day care. He was nervous when we left him, but when we came to pick him up he didn’t want to leave! They were great about sending us updates about his naps and videos of him playing with the other dogs. Really helped assuage our anxiety of him being stressed when left in the care of someone else. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Currently have a dog and a cat! Meredith the cat and September the dog! I also have 7 year old twins that love to play and help with their pets, and love meeting new animals. I’m a stay at home mom, so I have time during the weekdays while kids are at school, to do drop ins or walks. I also have a friendly pup that has a lot of energy and enjoys playing with other dogs, if I’m doing dog sitting. My dog gets one long walk per day and we have a backyard perfect for catch and running. Sometimes we go to the dog park too!
About: I have owned dogs my whole life, and currently have two small (under 20lb) resident dogs. I have experience medicating a range of health issues via injection, pill, or eye/ear drops. I'm also a foster with Last Hope K9 and have a wealth of resources available to me, and therefore can be provided to you. Dogs are allowed on furniture and I have a fenced in yard with dog door! I work from home with a dog door that pets have access to throughout the day. I accompany them out every few hours and would not leave them unattended for more than 2 hours while caring for your pet! I spend much of my free time relaxing with my current dogs, and your pets would join us during couch or play time. They would be fed according to your schedule and requirements, and regular photos provided.

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 West Boxford 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
