Sofia was fantastic—super accommodating and flexible, very communicative, and such a sweet and gentle caregiver for my kitty. I boarded Kiwi with her for a week on super short noticed, and she was willing to go above and beyond with pick up / drop off, daily medicine giving, and regular photo updates. I wish she lived in Boston year-round so that she could be my go-to sitter when I’m away for work trips! I’d 10/10 recommend Sofia to anyone looking for a Rover sitter!

Although I miss Ruby while I'm away, it is so so comforting knowing she is with Michelle, & getting such wonderful attention & care. Thank you, Michelle!!!

We had a last minute cancellation from our regular sitter and Emily was very understanding and immediately responded. She was great with Penny was very happy at her home for just under a week. Emily is responsible and communicative including daily photographs and updates of Penny. Penny and Hazel (Emilys dog) got along great and loved playing together. I would highly recommend Emily and would definitely have Penny stay with her again.

His communication is superb and responses are very prompt (usually within mere minutes). All throughout the stay, he kept me posted with lots of photos. My dog was definitely well taken care of. Will definitely book again.

About: With my fiancé I own a mini dachshund, Rosie! I grew up with cats, and have loved both cats and dogs my whole life. Already a sitter for family and friends, and now you! For daycare/boarding, Rosie will be here at my home, so if your dog loves making friends we are a perfect match. Happy to have a meetup prior as well to have our pups meet. I work full time during the week, often from home, and am available for some evenings/overnights on weekdays. On weekends I am more flexible for walks and drop ins. I have an apartment with a couple of nice parks nearby and quiet streets for walks. Rosie also lives here (mini dachshund), so your dog must be comfortable with small dogs (and Rosie loves making friends!). Apartment best suited for small/medium dogs.

Our 2 dogs stayed with Nally for a week while we were away. She offered to meet us prior to the booking, which I took her up on since I don’t like to book blindly and we had never met. Her communications were always prompt and she sent pictures while we were away. She was very flexible with coordinating pick up and drop off. Both of my guys came back happy and tired! They were happy to have some other dogs to play with too. I would not hesitate to re-book with her.

Cam has taken care of my German Shepard willow multiple times. It was clear he connected with my pup immediately when they first met. He meticulously asked about her care regimen, my preferences around how she gets handled, and left me feeling super confident. Cam was prompt, communicative, affectionate towards willow, and an all around good guy. Highly recommend and will be using again.
