Dog Boarding in Wakefield

This was our first time using Rover, and we’re so glad we discovered it! We recently traveled to Portugal and needed someone to care for our senior “pitizen,” Stewie. He’s the sweetest, easiest boy to love, but some might hesitate because he wears belly bands (his little “leaky faucet,” as we like to call it). From the very start, Rebeca and her family welcomed Stewie with open arms. Just hours before dropping him off, he suddenly experienced an episode where his back legs gave out—something completely new and scary for us. After a quick urgent care visit and a conversation with Rebeca, we felt completely comfortable moving forward with our trip, confident that Stewie was in the best hands possible. Throughout our travels, Rebeca kept us updated with multiple pictures and messages every day, showing Stewie happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. He was treated like part of the family—so much so that he even got to sleep in her kids’ beds each night! Rebeca and her family are the full package—a true home away from home for your beloved furry friends. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

Yang was very communicative and sent many great pictures of my dog while he was with her! I really appreciated knowing how he was doing and that he was comfortable at her house. I would highly recommend Yang to watch your fur baby!

Jennifer took such great care of dog! I loved getting frequent updates including videos and pictures! We already booked with Jennifer again for our next trip! He was well loved while we were away!

Luke is such an amazing pet sitter! Our dog Lola LOVES going to his house and getting to stay with him while we are away. She is a very anxious dog, so that is saying a lot. She always greets him tail wagging and runs into his house without any hesitation. He is very communicative and sends lots of pictures to keep us updated. He even takes her on a daily hike! 10 stars!

Lori is the best! Cricket had a great week with Lori going on lots of walks and playing a lot of fetch. Lori provided me with daily updates on Cricket and sent lots of photos and videos during her stay.

Gienna went above and beyond! Mina was so happy in her care, and Gienna communicated every step of the way. We are grateful for her excellent care.

Paul and Megan took incredible care of Jojo -- they are attentive to every need and personality quirk and made our pup feel so comfortable and loved while we were gone. We hope to have a chance for Jojo to visit with them again soon!

We were looking for a last minute Rover for our two dogs to stay when new to the Melrose area. Carol kept things simple and straight forward, and our dogs had plenty of fenced yard access and could be wherever they felt most comfortable inside the house.

Oana and Oliver were wonderful dog-sitters for our two dogs, one a 4 yr old terrier mix and the other a 1 yr old lab/chi mix. They came back happy and tired, and we'd definitely board with them again. Their yard is large and nice, and the inside of the house is also great for dogs.

Martha is very loving and sweet!! I received cute pictures and videos frequently and could tell our pup was well cared as a family member at her home. Highly recommend!

Frank had a lot of fun and was well taken care of! Lots of pictures and updates.

Mike was so great with Pork Chop! He provided pictures of him daily and made our time away less stressful with constant updates. Pork chop seemed to enjoy his time away and found himself comfortable almost immediately. Highly recommend Mike for your furbaby sitting needs!!

We had a great experience with Monica watching our dog for a week. She sent us daily updates and photos and took excellent care for our dog. We booked with a few days notice and Monica was very accommodating and caring throughout it all. We will definitely book with Monica again and recommend her to others!

Elliot took excellent care of my dog for the 10 days we were away. He was always professional, communicative and responsive. He asked good questions to make sure he could provide quality care and took our dog out for all kinds of fun outdoor activities. He has my highest recommendation and I will be reaching out to him again for future pet boarding needs.

Elizabeth, Rodrigo and their entire family were awesome in every way. They took amazing care of Brutus. For a moment there, I didn't think they wanted to return him to me :) I would highly recommend them.

Aurora was so great with our pup for a weekend. We got lots of photos and updates, and Hartley got along great with Aurora's dog Madi. Definitely would recommend Aurora!

This was Ruby’s second time with Séamus and she had a fantastic time! It’s such a relief knowing that while I’m away Ruby is enjoying herself 😊

Chanel was a great caretaker for our dog! This was our first time using Rover, or having someone besides family watch him, and she put us at ease with updates and pictures. We could tell he was very comfortable with her from the start. We’d gladly go with Chanel again!
