“Melissa was really great with Vinnie . Firstly, I reached out to her at the last minute which she accommodated. Then I was worried as it was the first time she was looking after Vinnie. But Melissa put all my worries at ease, she asked the right questions and promptly responded to all of mine . Vinnie had some great company with other dogs and absolutely had fun ! I will go back to Melissa again in a hear beat!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them! I have hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, including Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, Bernedoodles, and German Shepherds. I understand the unique personalities and needs of each dog of all ages and make it my mission to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just a cozy cuddle session, I treat every dog like my own. You can trust that your pup will be in warm, reliable, and capable hands! As a teacher, my schedule becomes much more flexible after June 17th when the school year ends. I babysit on Tuesdays, but aside from that, my days are open for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I’m excited to dedicate more of my time this summer to spending quality time with pets and providing dependable, loving care whenever needed. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment for all pets in my care. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and stretch their legs, and there’s a beautiful park just a short walk away for fun walks and exercise. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of affection and supervision, and make sure they feel secure. I also send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Sue has watched my two pups twice now and I cannot express enough at how grateful and lucky I feel to have found her! She truly loves dogs and I know when they are there that they are being cared and loved for exactly as if they were home. My dogs are attached at my hip, but when we get to Sue’s house, they are clearly so happy to be with her that it makes leaving them a LOT easier. Sue has been able to set my mind at ease (which is not a simple task!) and is very trustworthy. I highly recommend her services, she is now definitely my go-to sitter!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Worcester
It was so nice to be able to go on vacation without worrying about Tootsie for the first time! I mean not a single worry! Makes for a much better vacation! Leslie was so nice and patient! It took Tootsie a day to settle in and once she was I know tootsie was very comfortable. She sent daily pictures and updates which gave me further assurance. You just don’t get that from a boarding place even though they promise that. Tootsie is a rather “needy” dog but like a 2nd child. I could tell she was well taken care of. I would not hesitate to call Leslie again and if you are reading this review, rest assured your dog will be in great hands! Thanks Leslie!!
It’s so nice to drop the dogs off and see the dogs get excited to be at the sitters. The dogs love going and get really excited when we drive up. Warms my heart and is a great marker of quality. We know they are well taken care of ! Great communication and obviously dog lovers.
Lauren was a lifesaver for taking our last-minute booking. She took great care of Champ and sent regular photo updates. A huge thanks to Gavin for helping with the heavy crate, too, he moved it to and from the car on his own without us even asking. Champ came home happy, well-fed, and on his regular routine. Highly recommend them if you need a reliable team! We will definitely be booking with her again.
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my fur baby than Megan and her family. They included Marlo like she was their own and gave her so much love and the best photo updates! In the past when Marlo has come home from a sitter she’s been a bit on edge or overly exhausted, but when she got home it was as if she was just gone visiting a friend. We highly recommend Megan!
Reichel was absolutely amazing! She was absolutely amazing with Frank! From the start, they were communicative, punctual, and so kind. I really appreciated the photo updates and detailed check-ins—it gave me total peace of mind knowing my pup was happy and cared for. Frank came back relaxed and clearly well-loved and we’ll definitely be booking again!
Our pup, Tiana, has stayed here on a few occasions now. We trust Jeremiah and his family with her when we go away. This time, Tiana's eye didn't look right and Jeremiah reached out to let us know. We ended up picking her up a day early to take her to the vet. They took good care of her.
We love James! He was great to work with, but most importantly, our dog Bella had a great time. Bella is getting older, and we've been worried that she's been getting very stressed when we leave her at a kennel. We decided to try something different for this trip and tried Rover, where we found James. He kept us updated daily and kept us in touch. Bella and I look forward to working with him again in the future.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Worcester
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Worcester 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,922 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Worcester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
90% of Worcester sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Worcester landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Worcester 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 Worcester.
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.
You and your Worcester 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.
