“Betsy and her family created a welcoming environment that made it easy for our nervous dog to adjust. Betsy gave him all the care and attention he needed and was super responsive through our vacation. We will try to book again before we move.”
“Frodo had a great stay- enjoyed playing with the hosts' dogs, I got great pictures and video updates, easy to communicate with. Would absolutely use again.”
“Christina was amazing - kept us updated frequently with photos and messages and made us feel comfortable during our trip. Our dog also looked very comfortable staying with her. Would recommend her to any pet parent new to Rover. 10/10”
“Ann and her husband took incredible care of our dog. She sent updates and photos regularly while we were away. She was also very accommodating with the drop off and pick up schedule, and was able to accommodate a last minute schedule change. It’s clear that Ann and her husband are dog lovers and go and beyond in their care. We will definitely use them again!”
“Tiffany was great with Buck. I contacted her sort of last minute, and she was accommodating. She sent me a few check ins that made my day while traveling. Buck came home happy and healthy. I recommend Tiffany.”
“We have booked Chanel twice to take care of our furry baby Leo . Leo has medical issues and Chanel not only kept us up to date, but also went out of her way to make sure Leo was comfortable. We got updates through out the day with pictures. Highly recommended!”
“I was away for 4 days on a family trip. I never had to worry about Hermes. He has minor health issues. But I did not worry about him at all because Shuhua is a great dog sitter. She is trustworthy and professional. Hermes was happy and safe. Thank you.”
“Lee and her entire family are incredible dog sitters and treated Darla like their own! She warmed up to them right away and loved the fully fenced in yard. Lee was very responsive and provided daily updates and photos of her time with them. I cannot recommend them enough!”
“Hannah is wonderful! Our dog, Chente, loves staying with her. She is responsive, professional, and always send photos of our dog on their walks or in her house. Will definitely book again.”
“Lyn is such a professional! She did a lovely job taking care of our little Yorkie for two nights. She even bought him a new toy for extra fun. Thank you so much, Lyn!!”
“Fernanda took such good care of our pup. This was our first time leaving him with a sitter for multiple days. She did everything to make us feel at ease. She sent regular updates with pictures and videos, she took our dog to the dog park to play and she spent plenty of time playing with him at her place too. Our pup had a great time with her, I think he was sad to come back to us 😂 we would highly recommend Fernanda to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Lynne is a life saver! I had an emergency trip away and needed someone to care for my border collie, Zappa. Lynne responded promptly and made herself available to watch Zap on very short notice. Suffice to say, Zappa had a wonderful time w/Lynne -- and I have the photos to prove it!”
“We love Emily!!! Our dog was so comfortable at her home. Emily treated him like family. Her home is cozy, comfy and safe. She took him on long nature walks. Will definitely use her services again. Highly recommend!”
“Sushi had a great time with Katerina and Roland. She loved the playtime and hike with their family. They were very communicative and sent frequent updates on Sushi through the day. I would definitely book them again to take care of Sushi.”
“I haven’t used Rover in awhile as I started traveling with my pug Captain...but for a recent quick trip I decided it was worth it. I saw Ben’s profile and thought he seemed like a great fit to watch Captain. Ben and his girlfriend loved watching Captain and raved about their time with him. I could tell Captain also enjoyed himself! Ben was also very responsive and accommodated my schedule for pick up/drop off. I’d definitely use Ben as our dog sitter for our next trip!”
“Ilsa is a great dog sitter! She sent me tons of cute pics and videos of my dog during his stay. She lives in a great neighborhood with a yard which I know my dog loved. I would absolutely recommend her services and definitely book with her again!”

“I will definitely be rebooking with Rebeca! I could tell that she and her family truly cared for my dog, as they would their own. I received lots of photos and updates on her stay!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Medford
We were abroad when we suddenly needed doggie care, so I reached out to Maddy, and she responded immediately! She did a fantastic job caring for our sweet 6 year old lab. She sent plenty of amazing photos and updates, which made us feel completely at ease, especially since this was our first time using Rover. Maddy was communicative, friendly, and made sure our dog got plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. It was clear he was incredibly well cared for and absolutely loved his time with her! I would highly recommend Maddy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We will absolutely be boarding our dog with her again!
Biscuit really enjoyed his time staying with Christian! He was very communicative, sharing a few photos every day. He also made sure Biscuit had a fun and comfortable stay. I would not hesitate booking Christian again for future dog sitting needs. Thank you for treating Biscuit so well!
Alissa took care of Raja for a day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Raja has some dietary restrictions from getting sick recently, and she took the time to understand them and follow them carefully, which gave me real peace of mind. She also kept me updated throughout the day with messages, so I never had to wonder how he was doing. Raja came home happy and well cared for. I’d gladly book her again and recommend her to any dog owner.
Mary is unbelievable. She took good care of Oreo and sent lots of photos during Oreo's ~20 days' stay. Mary speaks soft but delivers strong. Now I can totally understand why she got 5 stars reviews on Rover. I hope we've got a chance to work with her in the future. Highly recommend.
We had a wonderful experience! Argo stayed for 3 days and was clearly in caring, knowledgeable hands. He seemed right at home with the other dogs, and we loved receiving some great pictures throughout his stay. Argo go plenty of walks and quiet time. We would definitely book again and highly recommend!
Ashley was FANTASTIC! She watched our pup for almost a week, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our boy was having a great time. She also handled his medications responsibly and proactively asked questions to make sure she was doing everything correctly. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being and went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of. We would absolutely book with Ashley again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring sitter!
Tiffany took SUCH great care of our puppy. We dropped off our very energetic 8 month old with Tiffany for a weekend while we went out of town and we knew our pup was in great hands. This was our first time leaving her with a sitter so we were unsure what to expect. Tiffany made us feel so confident and comfy and sent lots of pics. She clearly knows what she’s doing and truly loves dogs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Medford 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 West Medford.
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 West Medford 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.
