Sean is worthy of the 5 Star rating. I was in a pinch and needed a sitter a few days before my trip. Sean came through and was able to accommodate my big boy, Finn. Upon attending the meet n’ greet between our dogs (Holly and Remington), Sean sensed I was little nervous. However, he demonstrated not only confidence and knowledge about canine behavioral traits, but also show my boyo love, affection, and care even while juggling his own dogs. Early during my trip, I checked in on Finn often.. But after a few days I felt very peaceful that Finn was in great hands and hand many friends to play with. It was a very comforting experience, for both Finn and myself.

Kristina was amazing with my pups! She was so warm, friendly and welcoming when I had my pups stay with her and her cute little puppy! They had plenty of backyard to run around in and played the entire time. She was fantastic about sending pics throughout the stay and keeping me updated on how they were doing. I would absolutely have her take care of my little ones any day!

Zelun took fantastic care of our dog for over a week during Thanksgiving! Our dog usually takes a few days to perk up and get used to her new situation, but she settled in after the first night! Zelun sent daily pictures and videos from walks and afternoon sun naps, and our dog looked sooooo happy in every picture. Would 10/10 recommend.

Adonis was with Julie for a 2 week stay and had a blast! He quickly settled into her house and almost immediately took ownership of protecting her from all squirrels and other animals outside the house. He loves to play and Julie was awesome about sending us pictures of his stay with her. She was great with his food and even went the extra mile to feed him alternate food when he was not eating one day. Adonis bonded with Julie and we would love to have him stay with her again!

Another great 4-day visit over Thanksgiving! It’s amazing to know my dog is safe and happy with this loving family. Of course Ceila was happy to see us, but with paws on the window, she was wondering why her surrogate Dad wasn’t joining us in the car.

Greta is an amazing dog sitter! She provided lots of updates every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog looked incredibly happy and well cared for throughout the stay. She even gave my dog a bath, which was such a thoughtful offer. Juniper is also absolutely adorable, and it was wonderful that my dog had such a sweet companion to play with. I would highly recommend Greta to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter!

Eddy and his amazing team were absolutely amazing with my three Aussies! I left them with him from Thursday through Sunday while I was out of town, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very start, Eddy was so communicative and reassuring — he asked thoughtful questions about each of their routines and personalities, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident that they were in great hands. Two of them require medication administration which is always stressful to relay to a sitter- but Eddy was on it! Throughout the stay, Eddy sent many updates, photos, and videos that showed my pups running, playing, and relaxing like they were right at home. It was so clear that they were having the best time — happy, well cared for, and loved. It made it so much easier for me to actually enjoy my trip knowing they were being treated like family. When I picked them up, they looked amazing — tired from all the fun, healthy, and clearly bonded to Eddy and his team. Honestly, I think they were a little sad to leave! It’s obvious he truly loves what he does and goes above and beyond to make every dog feel safe and happy. Eddy is an animal lover, amazing with dogs and cats, and is COMPETENT in his work. I can’t recommend Eddy highly enough. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and experienced with energetic dogs like Aussies, he’s the one to call. We’re already booked with Eddy and his amazing team for our next time out of town.

Dana was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and were nervous to leave our pup with someone new (he was previously not a fan of being boarded). However, from initial message I could tell Dana knew what he was doing. We did a meet and greet before our dog’s stay and Dana was very thorough with how he operates when he is taking care of a dog, which certainly made me feel comfortable. Dana is also super laid back and more than willing to accommodate our slight adjustments in our pick up time. Our dog looked very comfortable with Dana and when we went to pick him up our dog did not want to leave. We will definitely have our pup stay with Dana in the future!

Juju seemed comfortable, relaxed, and joyful the whole time. They took her on wonderful walks around the neighborhood, to the hills, parks and through nature. I feel so lucky to have found them.

Can’t say enough great things about Jess and her family, and the care they provided for our pup! Kona spent a little over a week with Jess and we are so happy with the care she received. We were sent frequent updates, and never worried about Kona. She had a ton of fun, and was tired from all the fun she had when we picked her up. We will definitely be booking with Jess again for our travel boarding needs!

Sean is wonderful! He is a true dog lover and provides a safe and loving home for visiting dogs. Our young rescue dog can be nervous in new situations, but Sean was so kind and patient with her. With his help, she was able to adjust to her new surroundings and have a great time with Sean and the other dogs. Great experience!

Thank you Alex so much for taking care of Moab during July 4th weekend. Alex accommodated short notice boarding and very flexible with pickup/drop off time. Tons of update pictures he sent throughout the days. No issues with the stay whatsoever. I trust Alex caring for my senior dog. I will definitely use Alex next time when I’m out of town. No doubt!

Koda is a little anxious, and I think she did great with him and made us both very comfortable! She was also very flexible when I realized I was arriving from my trip a little later than expected.

My dog stayed with Sam and his fiancée Morgane for a 2.5-week stay and I can't recommend or thank them enough. Right before the stay my dog had a Lyme's disease flare up which required rest and medication. I was nervous about leaving him for so long while sick, but felt at ease during drop-off when Sam assured me it was no big deal. They sent me lots of updates (including videos of how Ozzie was doing) and made sure I had the communication I needed/wanted, and that Ozzie got all his meds. They were both so easy to coordinate pickup/drop off with, and Ozzie had a great time with lots of play (once better) and attention! Thank you Sam and Morgane - Ozzie can't wait for the next "vacation"!

We really appreciated that they asked for our consent before taking Brie anywhere, which made us feel respected and at ease. They sent thorough updates with a great mix of photos and videos, including how she was eating and going to the bathroom, so we always knew exactly how she was doing. Would absolutely rebook — highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - West Newton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in West Newton on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 4,379 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in West Newton. About 91% of West Newton 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.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
