“Arlene and Josiah are very nice. Teddy stayed with they for two weeks. They constantly updated us. They took pictures and videos. We are lucky to be able to find them.”
“First time leaving my dog with a stranger was a big deal. Antonio was able to get us to relax and feel like our little girl is in good, caring hands! With daily updates, photos, and videos, we really felt like we made the right choice with Antonio. Thank you so much!”
“Bella always looks forward to staying with Rob and his family. She is happy with the home environment, and likes her walks and having a few other dogs there to make friends with. Thanks, Rob!”
“I can't recommend Claudia and Joaquin enough! They took wonderful care of Daisy and were so accommodating from start to finish. Everything from the initial meet-and-greet to the final pick-up was completely effortless. They kept me in the loop with adorable photo updates, and seeing Daisy looking so relaxed gave me complete peace of mind.”
“Maryah did a great job taking care of Alfie. She was quick to respond to my messages and provided me updates on Alfie. When I went to pick up Alfie, I could see he was very well taken care of. Thank you, Maryah!”
“Our 5-year-old poodle Louis stayed 6 days with Ilsa, her pup Fig, and her 2 cats. It was one of his best boarding experiences. He was well-cared for, with lots of activity and stimulation.”
About: Hi! I’m patient and caring with animals and really enjoy spending time with pets. I currently work from home, so I’m home most of the day and can give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and a consistent routine. Last year, my own Chinchilla cat had kittens, and I cared for them from birth until they were old enough to leave their mother and go to their new homes, so I also have hands-on experience with feeding, cleaning, and watching over newborn kittens. I previously had a teacup Toy Poodle, and I also had a Toy Poodle who lived to 14, so I have experience caring for pets at different stages of life. I’ve also helped friends care for their Goldendoodle, Shelties, Corgis, Golden Retrievers, and Labradors, so I have experience with these breeds as well. I currently have a male blue bicolor Ragdoll. I’m reliable, gentle, and happy to follow each pet’s usual schedule so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My day is flexible since I work from home, so I follow the pet’s routine. Morning: breakfast, fresh water, potty break or litter check, and a little playtime. Midday: another walk/potty break or play session, plus food, water, and litter check. Afternoon: I’m home working, so pets can rest nearby and get company. Evening: dinner, walk/playtime, cleanup, and quiet time. Before bed: final potty break or litter check, fresh water, and a calm routine. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule and send updates/photos. In my home, I keep pets in a safe, calm space, follow their usual feeding and potty routine, give them plenty of playtime and company, and make sure they have fresh water and a clean litter box. In a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep their routine the same, feed/water them, clean litter or pick up after dogs, take dogs out for walks and potty breaks, and spend time playing with them. I always respect the home, keep things clean, and send updates and photos so the owner knows their pet is doing well.
“Richard and his partner went above and beyond while I used his services. Very communicative and went out of his way to give my pet a great time while I was away. My dog gets anxious very easily but just by the pictures he seems so happy. I appreciate their care and will 100% be requesting their services going forward”
“Irina is fantastic! She took care of our 1.5 year old dog for a few days and was super communicative throughout. Irina was flexible in scheduling an initial meeting so she could meet our dog, Bruno, before taking care of him. During that time she asked a lot of great questions and this made me feel confident and comfortable in having Bruno stay with her. When we got a Bruno back, he was super calm and happy. 10/10!”
“I was really nervous about leaving my baby for so long but Felice was sooo accommodating and sweet and patient with her! I really really appreciate all the care provided to my girl. Definitely would book again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years - from my own family dog, to a roommates dog that felt like my own! My husband and I are in our prequel to owning our own dog phase and would love to host your furry friends! I work hybrid and have a very flexible schedule during the week, so will have plenty of time to give your dog attention! Weekends are usually very open too. We don’t have a yard, but live very close to a lot of great parks and love walking! Happy to help your pup get anything they need, whether it’s a long walk, snuggles, or any medication needed to keep them healthy!
“Phoebe had a great time staying with Ashley for the second time! She looked like she had a great time in all of the picture and video updates that Ashley sent! I’m sure Phoebe can’t wait until she can stay with Ashley and her pups again!”
“Mysty took excellent care of my senior blind boy, Jack. Jack boarded with Mysty for 5 days while i was on a trip and I felt reassured my boy was in good hands while I was away. Great communication and updates as well! I'm so grateful and would recommend 100%!”
“Nancy was incredible!!! I felt so safe with her having my girl and she spoiled her. She kept me up to date and took amazing care of all of Petunias needs. I couldn’t be more grateful and will definitely use her again.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Winthrop is $65

Rob was once again an amazing sitter to my sweet, nervous Barry. He is communicative and informative. He sent photos of Barry in a halloweeen costume that I will treasure forever. This is my 2nd time using Rob for a long international trip, and I will return again in the future!!! Thank you!!
Jorge was absolutely fantastic! He was super responsive and kept me updated throughout with photos and videos, which gave me a total peace of mind while I was away. My dog can be sensitive, but I could tell right away that she felt comfortable, happy, and really liked him when I picked her up. I really appreciated Jorge taking care of my dog. I would highly recommend Jorge to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
We left our dog Theia with John over the weekend while we were on vacation in Maine. John is an absolute dream of a dog sitter - he is attentive, kind, and so clearly loves dogs that we felt totally at ease leaving our dog with him. He has two dogs of his own and they all become fast friends. John sent a bunch of pictures and I swear Theia was smiling in each one. We highly recommend John, he is very responsive and flexible to meet our schedule needs. We feel very lucky to have found John and plan to use him again in the future. Theia came home a tired and happy pup, nothing more we could ask for!
Ngoc and her family treated our puppy with incredible love and affection. We picked her up and she was so happy and calm. You know things are good when our dog made sure to say "bye" to Ngoc before we left her house! We would absolutely leave our puppy with Ngoc again. She was amazing!
She was amazing with my 4-month-old puppy! Her communication was great, she kept me updated, and I felt comfortable knowing my puppy was in good hands. She was reliable, caring, and made the whole experience stress-free. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter! ❤️
Laura did a wonderful job caring for my puppy, Kiki! She was incredibly patient and understanding of Kiki’s training needs and daily schedule. Laura was also very flexible with the pickup and drop-off times when I needed to pick Kiki up earlier than planned. She is thoughtful, caring, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend her!
My 1.5 year old dog Obi LOVES going to boarding at Giana’s. We’ve had 2 weekend stays with her so far and I’m extremely happy with the whole experience. Both times Giana responded quickly to last minute requests - she was very accommodating to my schedule. I was really skeptical of using rover - we just moved back to Boston and had not yet found a good option for overnight stays for our dog and were in a bind so decided to try it out. I’m really glad we went with Giana. I was drawn to her by her profile and especially with her outdoor space. My dog loves to play so he has a blast there. What I love the most is all the updates. She sends photos / videos multiple times a day. Would 100% recommend Giana if you’re looking for someone you can trust and count on.
Weronikka and her husband took care of my dog for five days and did an amazing job. I had never met her or even spoken to her on the phone, before, so I was pretty nervous. But even before I left on my trip, she made me feel comfortable. Her constantly positive communication gave me confidence that I had left my baby with the right person. I will definitely ask her to take care of Herbie again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Winthrop is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $77 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 4,024 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Winthrop. About 90% of Winthrop 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.
