Dog Boarding in Melrose

We're so grateful to have had Belinda watch our dog Mocha while we were away! She shared videos with us each day, which was great. Communication was always quick and easy. We loved that Mocha had Belinda's dog Sloan as a playmate, and they played great together. Belinda is friendly, easygoing, and has a lot of dog experience. She provided a crate and tons of toys; her house is the perfect setup for pups. Mocha loved the fenced yard and doggie door too. Thanks so much Belinda! Looking forward to having Mocha stay with you again.

I recently had to find boarding for my senior dog for 7 days and had no idea where to go. I wanted her to be in a home and not a concrete cell for a week. I found Lori through Rover.com and I could tell the minute we arrived for our meet and greet she was going to be the perfect person to care for Maggie. She is experienced with senior dogs and had no problem administering her medications daily. I would, without hesitation, recommend Lori if you are looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable sitter for your pup. I got pictures every day and Maggie always looked happy and content. Lori is great!

Guillermo was an incredible sitter for Penny. He was very communicative and flexible, and Penny clearly had the best time staying with him from all the photos!

Chanel was so sweet and kept me updated watching my dog consistently! He seemed very happy the entire time he was there and Chanel was very understanding!

Aurora and her dog Madi are great companions for our dog when we’re away. We love the regular photos and knowing Gnocchi is having fun. Aurora is very responsive and accommodating.

Victoria was a great sitter for our dog Gino! She took excellent care of our dog! He had surgery recently and she was willing to take good care of him, and give him pills every 12 hours. She sent us pictures and kept us updated all the time on how he was doing. We are really happy we chose her sitting services. We will definitely book her services again!

They were easy to communicate and sent daily photo/video updates. They prepared to board our 9-year-old dog on the ground floor so he doesn’t have to go up and down the stairs often, which was kind and thoughtful. Our dog came home happy and healthy after a week-long stay :-)

This was Theo’s 2nd stay with Elliot and Jo and everything went well! They make drop off and pick up easy. Theo was comfortable in their home when I dropped him off, and they provided updates during his stay. Thanks again Elliot and Jo!

Bella was happy to see Rob and his kids again when we dropped her off, which is a very good sign. It was a long stay of 3 weeks while we were off in Africa. Rob and his family took great care of Bella, including long walks, a dog-friendly house, amiable dog companions (good socialization), and cheerful kids. Rob kept us in the loop with lots of photos and updates - when your dog is smiling in the photos, it makes a long trip much more relaxing :-). Rob and his family work as a team; they love dogs and understood Bella's needs very well. Thanks!

Natali was great with hosting my dog. She was very attentive and communicative not only during the stay, but also leading up to it. She was proactive in being attentive to my dogs needs and flexible when working with me. Much appreciation!

This is Delta & Rufus,s first stay with Akhil and they had a blast. We always worry about any anxiety they might have when we leave but they were both in capable hands with Akhil. Thanks again Akhil for always checking in with us and taking good care of our pups!

Yang was a great pet sitter. We boarded our cat with her for an evening, and she was super communicative and attentive, with photos and regular updates . Would definitely board with her again.

I am so grateful to Hannah for the care she gave Stella while I was away. I highly recommend her and will be using her again when out of town.

Patrick has taken excellent care of our dog, during her 2 week stay. He provided daily pictures and videos, and accommodated my requests. I highly recommend Patrick.

Xinyue & Weihai, thank you for your warmth and taking such good care of The General!!! Xinyue & Weihai are extremely friendly and professional, they sent numerous videos, pictures, and were extremely accommodating to our change in schedule due to flight delays. We look forward to working with you guys in the future.

Fantastic sitter! Zelun is very attentive and took great care of our dog. Regular walks and daily photos, and our dog looked so happy and relaxed in every photo update. When he noticed a change in her behavior one day, he reached out right away with pictures and kept a close eye on her until it looked like she was okay. This was our second time booking dog boarding with Zelun, and we would 10/10 recommend!

Wow what gems! Our pup Boone was SO happy here. We got lots of updates and could tell he was just having a blast. Liz kept us informed of possible health concerns and we felt super comfortable with her approach. Would highly recommend!

Betsy was incredibly responsible and compassionate with our dog. My dog was in the process of healing from a paw injury and needed to wear a cone. Betsy and her sweet family gave our dog all the TLC she needed.

Todd (and Cara) were perfect sitters! I get really nervous leaving our dog with new people as he can be a bit quirky & extremely routine-oriented, but I immediately felt comfortable with the two of them minutes into our meet and greet. They asked all the right questions, and it was clear that they know how to take amazing care of dogs & know what to ask about to ensure a comfortable stay. It was clear that they cared about keeping Pluto on his usual routine, and I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about Pluto at all. I truly hope that Pluto gets the chance to stay with them in the future -- thank you SO much!

Man & Zhen were very kind and caring for our dog. They gave lots of detailed updates and photos.
