“Jo and Adam did an incredible job with our 8-month old puppy!! Dropoff and pickup were totally smooth, not complicated at all. They gave us lots of photo updates (which gave us a lot of peace of mind). Our puppy had a great time, and we wouldn't hesitate to board with them again!”
“Ben was amazing with our dog Aster! We did a meet and greet beforehand and left Aster with him for 3 nights. He gave Aster tons of attention, walks, and playtime. Ben made sure to keep us updated with tons of pictures and messages. If you're looking for someone who will love your dog like their own, Ben is the guy to go with!”
“He is so Amazing with my boy! Smokey is in love with François! He was Comfortable with him instantaneously and I can tell he wanted to stay a while longer! François is so attentive and takes scenic long walks with Smokey, and I know Smokey loved cuddling and sight seeing with François!”
“Alissa is wonderful! She takes great care of my dog including taking her on fun adventures. Kona loves being there and gets so excited when we arrive. I don't have to worry at all when she's there.”
“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!”
“Uni looked so happy staying with Rose and her family. Rose was very responsive and understanding, and provided regular updates while we were away. Will definitely book again next time!”
“Lyn took care of both my dogs for 3 weeks! This was the first time she was caring for them. She was very communicative, thorough and responsive from the beginning. It was clear that the dogs were well cared for and loved through this entire time. Lyn took them on long walks in the beginning of the day and again, when she got home from work. She also sent us several photos of the pups everyday and provided regular updates on how they were. 100% would board my dogs with her again.”
“Zwany is super nice and easy to work with. She is communicative and follows all instructions. Her goal is the best for your pups and she always accomplishes that goal. She also sends all toys and materials you send with your pup back cleaner then they started which is so nice after a trip, one less thing to worry about!”
“Monica takes great care of our dog! She's super responsive and a great communicator! You'd be lucky if she watches your pet! We have been using her for almost two years and are so happy to have found a reliable pet sitter we can trust!”
“Max was fantastic with our puppy, Pickles! Communication was excellent. He sent frequent updates and photos throughout the weekend, so we always knew how Pickles was doing. Max was patient and happy to follow our specific instructions for our young pup (still house-training and needs a leash at all times). Would absolutely book him again and highly recommend him for anyone with a puppy that needs a little extra attention.”
“Oscar loved Emily immediately and I felt comforted knowing she was taking good care of him. Oscar came home happy and ready to play! He obviously got lots of love and attention at Emily’s. Will certainly rebook in the future.”
“Jessica took care of Millie for 3 nights and it was clear that she was well loved throughout the entire stay. Jessica kept us updated with frequent pictures and all her needs were met. We would not hesitate to book Jessica again.”
“Joe and the family were great hosts to my dog! She had a fun and busy week and came home happy and tired. Joe provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. We would definitely stay with Joe again!”
About: I have a family dog that I have spent a lot of time with, caring for and helping train. I really love animals and have such a great time with them! Right now I have a very flexible schedule and can make any weekday work, anytime! I am somewhat less available on weekends, however if I know in advance I can plan around it. Each animal is different and paying close attention to what the owner does for their animal is important. I care for pets by making sure they have water, outside time, and stimulation within the house when needed.
“Alex was great! He was super communicative and tired Leo out every day. It’s also great that he has a big yard, we were so happy to see Leo running around in so much space. He sent lots of videos and photos which made us know Leo was in good hands. Would definitely book again!”
“She was amazing with Toby and you could tell she really loves to care for animals. Toby looked so happy in every picture I received and she was so great communicating with me. I will definitely be rebooking!! Toby had a great time she’s so nice!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Winchester
This was our first time using Rover, as Nia (our 2yo Shihtzu) has only ever been left with close family friends so I was definitely a bit nervous! But Ashley and her whole family were so welcoming and really helped Nia feel comfortable right away. Ashley sent regular photo and video updates that put my mind completely at ease—you could tell just by looking at her how happy she was. Ashley’s two dogs were also wonderful, which was huge for us since Nia isn't super socialized yet. She acclimated so fast and had the best time. We’re already looking forward to her next stay with Ashley and her new puppy friends!
Gulnoza is a wonderful woman and a first-rate cat sitter. I received updates everyday from Gulnoza, and felt confidence my cat was is excellent hands. My cat was just recently adopted and has not settled in, so this was a challenging kitty, but Gulnoza (and her terrific husband) understood the kitty perfectly. Its very apparent they both have love for cats. If you're worried about your kitty-baby, and want to have peace of mind, I highly and unequivocally recommend contacting Gulnoza where your kitty will have its very own room and the best of care!
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.
Sahana and Raman were wonderful! They took the time to meet our Red and make sure he was comfortable with them and their Cinnamon while we were still present. They were also very flexible and communicative. Red looked very happy and comfy, both in the many pics/videos they sent through the stay, and when we picked him up after a week. Would definitely book again!
Kamila was terrific! She took such great care of our dog Gronk that he was sad to leave when we came to pick him up. She kept us up to date with the fun they were having and allowed gums to rest easy knowing our pup was in good hands. Would absolutely recommend Kamila to anyone needing a sitter!
We're very happy to have found Andrew on Rover and we'll definitely book with him again. Percy enjoyed his stay and was exceptionally well taken care of in Andrew's home. We were away for the weekend during a big storm when it was truly challenging to walk a dog. Nonetheless, Andrew made sure that our energetic Percy got some outside time and stimulation. Andrew's calm and confident personality was a perfect match for our big goofy golden retriever, who at 2-1/2 years old is still in puppy mode. Thank you Andrew! We appreciate you!
We had such a wonderful experience with Carol! Our Boxer, Jarvis, stayed with her and absolutely loved his time there. It was clear when we picked him up that he felt comfortable, happy, and so well cared for. Carol was incredibly kind, attentive, and loving toward Jarvis, and we really appreciated knowing that he was in such good hands while we were away. She made him feel right at home, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was having a great time. Jarvis came home happy and tired, which is always the best sign! We would absolutely trust Carol with him again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care she gave Jarvis! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Kathryn is amazing! Her proactive and reliable communication made us feel at ease while away. This was the first time our dog has stayed with someone outside of our family, and Kathryn made both our dog and us feel safe and well-taken care of. We are so grateful for the care and attention she showed our pup.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Winchester is $78 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $126 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 4,139 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Winchester. About 90% of Winchester 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
