Dog Boarding in West Roxbury, Boston

“Melissa was so thoughtful and loving of my Romeo. She treated him like he was her own. He fenced in back porch is perfect for a small dog like Romeo who wants to explore safely or a big dog that just needs some fresh air. She took him on walks and sent me videos and pictures to let me know he was not only safe, but having fun. We called it a “sleepover” and my pup had so much fun he gave her a million kisses before he left. Her dog is a cuddly love bug who played gently with my 3.8 lb pup. Melted my heart to see them together. I felt at ease with my pup staying with Melissa and her pup and that made happy. Thank you Melissa! From Romeo and I! We’ll be back for sure!”

“This was my first time using Rover and it was an amazing experience because of Aly. She communicated with us right from the start and set up a meet and greet where she asked questions about our puppy's routine, needs, and preferences. We were nervous immediately felt very comfortable leaving our brand new puppy with her. Aly sent daily updates and pictures throughout our vacation and we could tell our dog was comfortable and happy. Aly felt like an extension of the family right away and we I couldn't recommend her more. We will definitely look to have her watch our dog in the future.”

“I would absolutely hire Justine again as a pet sitter for Charlie. She was very communicative, accommodating and sent frequent pictures. She knew how to take good care of my senior dog and that made me feel more secure about leaving my best buddy with her.”

“Jodi was great in helping us with Stewie! Her home was warming, she sent photos every day, and Stewie looked like he enjoyed his time! Thank you, Jodi!!”

“We couldn’t be more happy with our experience with Lina. It was like our dogs were spending the week with Family! She kept in regular communication with photos which really helped the kids who missed our dogs. Just a great experience from start to finish.”

“Nicole took amazing care of my dog! I could tell she had a great time, and that made it much easier to be away. I definitely recommend working with Nicole!”

“This was Charlie’s first stay with Mercis. Charlie is very choosy with new boarders. He was very comfortable with Mercis from the first time he met her. We got frequent updates, pictures and videos during the whole stay. Charlie has a great time! We will definitely board Charlie again with her. Highly recommend Mercis for your boarding needs!!”

“Delayni took great care of my cat and sent some great pictures to keep me updated. She was also very flexible about picking up and dropping off the cat, and keeping me in the loop of what was going on.”

About: I have 10+ years of taking care of dogs plus I have my own dog. I’m a very active person and love taking furry friends along with me. I have a fenced backyard and am open to all dogs and needs. I also love photography and love getting to photograph dogs being themselves, im happy to take pictures on my camera and send them to you in addition to daily update photos. Reach out so we can chat. My only requirement is I need to meet your dog first, and they need to be comfortable with other dogs. Weekends are my most open time for pet sitting but I can be flexible during the week depending on your needs. Let me know what your needs are, I’m happy to work with clients I have a fenced yard plus take my dog out for multiple days walks per day. I am open to whatever needs your dog may have, short walks, long walks, evening running. Let me know if your dog is ok off leash, if so I’m happy to take them to open spaces where they can run.

“Great experience boarding Summer for 3 days! They sent updates daily and were very easy to communicate with. They even got Summer special treats!”

“Our 5 month old puppy did really well with Jess and her family. He was very well cared for. We got lots of updates. Jess was very easy to work with and clearly knows and loves dogs. We will use her again.”

“This was our first experience with rover.com. Maryanne knows and loves dogs. She devoted so much time to understanding my dog. Leaving my dog with Maryanne was like leaving my dog with a wonderful friend from the dog park or my trusted neighbor. Maryanne took my dog on long walks and sent me photos and updates. She gave my dog so much attention and love. He came home very well taken care of and happy. I have already rebooked with Maryanne. She is truly a gem. Thank you, Maryanne!”

“I'm so thrilled to have found Abby! She made Daisy feel right at home and I was confident that she was receiving top notch care while I was away thanks to the adorable photo updates and consistent communication. I will absolutely ask Abby to watch Daisy again.”

“Irian and Victor were great with my two dogs. They were understanding about their quirks and seemed to take everything with stride. They communicated well and were absolutely pleasant to deal with. I’d use them again in a second.”

“Oscar and his family provided another excellent experience for Dexter and for us. He sent pictures and videos of Dexter having a great time. This made being away from our little guy a bit easier and put our minds at peace that Dexter was being well cared for.”

“Sara was great with our puppy! She took Bumi him out a lot for walks, to chill by the poolside, even ride the train etc. We’re glad Bumi got to socialize and get out a lot during his stay. He seemed very happy with the new environment when we went to pick him up. Would definitely recommend :)”

“Oksana and Jake stand out as some of the warmest, most reassuring, prepared, and communicative people I've entrusted Kuiper with. Upon dropping him off, just a day after booking, Oksana and Jake had already reviewed my notes, assuring me that they could provide him the care he needs. Their home is not only spacious and clean but also has a backyard where dogs can freely roam! Because they work remotely, they provided Kuiper great companionship. While away, they consistently sent me pictures of him snuggled on the couch, enjoying walks, and playing fetch. Amid a demanding, schedule-packed event, knowing that Kuiper was happy and well-cared for provided me with peace of mind to focus on my tasks. For thoughtful, reasonably-priced, and loving pet care in Boston, look no further! 🐶”

“Allie is fantastic. She is attentive to my dog's needs, had great questions about things she noticed during his stay, and her communication style is terrific. My dog will be back again in a few weeks.”

“Dana did a great job with our large and energetic dog on very short notice! Highly responsive and knows how to deal with the little things that come up during dog-care. (Our leash snapped during our dog's stay, and he was able to weld it back together!) Will definitely be back.”

“Nathalie and Sean were terrific caregivers to my sweet but anxious German Shorthaired Pointer. They were warm and communicative. I have never seen my dog so happy and calm in someone else's care than in her daily pictures.”
