“Melissa did a great job taking care of yummy! We had a two-week extended stay. She shared photo updates regularly and flags issues proactively. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Briana is great! Felt totally comfortable leaving our 2 small dogs there and won’t hesitate to do it again for our next vacation. Everything went perfectly smoothly and with great communication.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care my dog received while I was away! Lingwen was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my furry friend in their hands. She was so professional, friendly, and attentive, taking the time to learn my dog’s routine and preferences. During the time I was away, Lingwen kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. My dog was happy, healthy, and relaxed when I returned. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their pets!”
“Nancy and her husband took very good care of our 2 year old Max. She sent cute pictures and kept me updated. They have a safe n cozy place I am so thankful I found another home for max:-)) Thank you Nancy!”
“My first time making any kind of booking with Rover, Melissa, Axel and family were an amazing family and treated Maverick with so much attention, love and care. Their home is very pet friendly with a nice big yard and backyard area. Melissa is very experienced with pets, will be making a future reservation again with them soon. Thank you again so much for taking care of Maverick!”
“Aline was amazing! She was very easy to communicate with and kept us updated throughout the entire time. We really appreciated all the photos she sent—they showed how happy and comfortable Coco was. She paid attention to every detail and made sure our baby was safe and happy the whole time. Coco had such a great time with her! I will definitely book Aline again in the future. Thank you so much, Aline!”
“This was our first of hopefully many visits to Julia and Hugo. Sadie was greeted warmly and she felt relaxed and happy. Julia sent nice photos and comments. I felt secure leaving Sadie because Julia is a warm and loving person who takes her job responsibly and seriously. Thank you Julia and Hugo.”
“Julie was a great sitter all around! She offered a meet and greet beforehand which I really appreciated. Louie was immediately comfortable with her and her home. Julie's home was a perfect fit for us because it’s one level and she has a fenced”
“We left our dog Macie with Kira and her family for two nights and couldn’t be happier! Macie had run of the house and even slept in their bedroom (just like at home!). They have a lovely fenced in yard so Macie got her exercise, and was given lots of play time. I will definitely”
“Our pet dog had a great time at Paola. She is very attentive to our needs and took good care of our dog. She also provided daily updates and loads of pictures which made us feel comfortable the whole time we are away for a vacation.”
“Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our older aged GSD. Her retriever got along great with our dog and we were very pleased with the level of care provided for our pup when it came to food accommodations (our pup gets anxious when we leave and struggles to eat sometimes). Needless to say, Sarah went above and beyond and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the extraordinary care for our dog as well as all of the communication and photos she provided during the stay. Lastly, Sarah was quite flexible and accommodating with meet and greets, drop off times and pickup times. 10/10 and highly recommend! Thank you Sarah!”
“Sarah was fantastic. This was Bader's first time staying with someone other than family, and Sarah made it easy from the initial meet and greet right through our time away. She sent an update and some photos each day while we were away, and her notes made it clear that she enjoyed getting to know Bader. It's good to know that you can find great people, like Sarah, to care for your pets through Rover. We will definitely be reaching out to Sarah in the future!”
“We really appreciated Karen's excellent communication with us while she cared for our dog, Rosie. Rosie also got lots of affection from Karen's daughter--which we also loved hearing about!”
“Krista and Henry did a great job caring for my 12 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback, Ralphie. They take their responsibility very seriously but at the same time they are very calm and easygoing which is perfect for a dog in a new place. Ralphie’s hind legs are not as strong as they used to be. Out of concern for his safety, Krista slept downstairs on the couch so Ralphie would not have to climb the stairs. I highly recommend Krista & Henry to anyone else looking for the best care for your dog when need a sitter.”
“Migle was absolutely wonderful with Zoë. She went above and beyond-carrying her up and down the stairs because Zoë couldn't manage them, sending regular photo updates, and treating her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Zoë was so well cared for. Truly exceptional.”
“Zora had a wonderful week with Keith and his wife! It was my first time leaving her and I really appreciated the daily updates, photos and videos. She got lots of love and attention, and I had a great vacation knowing she was in capable hands. Would definitely book again!”
“Xiaoxue was a total lifesaver when we needed a sitter last minute!. She was immediately responsive, easy to coordinate with, and took such great care of our Labrador. Our pupper came home happy and tired from her stay. We will definitely be using their services again!"”

Mariann was wonderful! She is kind, conscientious and accommodating throughout my dog’s stay. Her communication was excellent. I received daily updates and photos which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care and my dog was just as comfortable in her home. I would absolutely book with Mariann again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
We had such a great experience boarding our dog at Stephanie’s while we were on vacation. We got multiple updates with pictures each day. Stephanie is very accommodating and flexible, and she really made sure Joey was happy and comfortable during his stay. We are so happy to have found someone we can trust and we won’t hesitate to use her in the future!
Melissa is wonderful! We liked her so much that we rebooked with her within a week of picking up our Charlie after a 3 week stay. Charlie had just been diagnosed with hip dysplasia, so we were a little reticent to leave him. Melissa was nothing short of a dog whisperer! She knew just what to do! She sent photos every day, which really put us at ease. Don’t hesitate to leave your fur baby with Melissa! She’s the best!!

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Westborough can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Westborough 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 Westborough.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Westborough. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Westborough 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
