“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!”
“This was our first time boarding Sophie with Melissa and she did great! We got timely photo and video updates from Melissa all through her stay. Good communication and she took good care of our dog. Will definitely consider her for future boarding needs.”
“Melissa & Axel took amazing care of our golden retriever over a two night weekend stay. They sent us plenty of updates and we could tell that our dog loved the stay with their family.”
“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.”

“Thank you for taking such good care of the boys again. They were excited as soon as we pulled in the driveway and you received kisses from Paxton, which you know is extremely rare! A testament to your kind, caring demeanor with them!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always considered them part of the family. Growing up, my family had four dogs, and I was incredibly close to each of them. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve also had my own dog since he was just a few months old, and he is now five years old. He means the world to me, and I take pride in giving him the love, attention, exercise, and care he deserves. Being a dog owner has taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, responsible, and dependable when caring for someone’s pet. When your dog is in my care, I want you to feel confident knowing they are being treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m attentive to their needs, enjoy spending time with them, and will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m available throughout the week and have a flexible schedule, with most of my availability in the mornings. 🐾 Dog Walking: I’m available for walks all week during the mornings. On weekends, I’m available at any time of the day. 🏡 Day Sitting: I’m available for day sitting on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with full-day availability. I’m also home frequently, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. 🛏️ Boarding: I’m available for overnight boarding from Thursday through Sunday. Boarding on other days may also be possible with advance discussion. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine whenever possible and will always do my best to accommodate their individual needs. 🐶❤️ A typical day with me is filled with plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime! I live in a safe and secure apartment community with lots of open space where dogs can enjoy walks and get some fresh air. One of my favorite features of my community is our fenced-in dog park located right next to the pool. It’s a great, secure space where dogs can run around, play, and get their energy out while being safely supervised. There are also plenty of other dogs throughout the community, so for pups who enjoy socializing, there are opportunities to meet some new furry friends and have a little playtime together. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration. A typical day would include regular walks, playtime, plenty of attention and affection, and time to relax and feel comfortable in their home away from home. I love keeping dogs engaged with activities, giving them lots of interaction, and making sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. Most importantly, I want every dog in my care to feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and give them the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own dog. 🐾❤️
“Liz was great! She took great care of my pet. Communicating with her was neat and simple. My dog usually follows a schedule and I see no difference after his stay with her. Hope, he'll be happy to go back.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was little, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of cuddles! I work from home most days of the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pet with attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for regular care as well as occasional bookings and will always do my best to work around your pet’s routine. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I’m respectful of your home and will follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications if needed, and any other specific needs your pet has.
“Gabriel was super responsive and communicative. This was our first time boarding our older adopted beagle. Gabriel worked with him to socialize him with the other dogs and made him very comfortable during his stay. I would recommend and wouldn't hesitate to book again.”
“This was my first time ever living my puppy Kimchi with anyone other than my family and I can tell you with sooooo much confidence that Paola and her husband did a magnificent job at taking care of my pup! She stayed with them for almost an entire week and I got updates and photos every single day! I can’t recommend Paola and her Husband enough!”
“Michael and his family are wonderful! I can't say enough good things about him and the care he provides my dog, Ghost Pepper. I've used Micheal's services several times, all in leading up to 2+ week vacation that I couldn't bring my dog to. He sent pictures, and updates and was in contact with me often. My dog had a great time while we were away. I know how stressful it can be to find a place you're comfortable letting your dog stay - Michael's house is it! We've had such great experiences with him. Truly a blessing to have a safe, caring, fun, happy place to leave my dog. Thank you!!!!!!”
“Felicia took good care of my 2 dogs. There was good communication. She also takes extra effort to accommodate our schedule. We really appreciate it. I already have another booking with her coming up soon.”
“Kendra was absolutely amazing. From the moment I walked in I knew Scout would be well cared for and would also have a fun furry companion to play with. Kendra is very attentive to details, warm, welcoming to cuddle a sometimes shy dog and my pup enjoyed lots of exercise and play. Thank you Kendra!”

Tamara did a fantastic job watching our dog Max. He was well cared for and we could tell he really enjoyed his stay. Tamara is always caring and responsive, and was able to accommodate our drop off and pick up times so. We highly recommend Tamara and Jerimiah, and will certainly be using them again.
Alexis took such wonderful care of our Goldendoodle, Walden, and treated him like one of her own. Walden and Brewer became fast friends. It was clear he was happy and well cared for while we were away. We would absolutely trust Alexis with Walden again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pup.
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!!
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.

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.
91% 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.
