“Courtney was excellent! Very kind to my anxious cat with some behavioral issues. She was super patient with her which I appreciate, even when my cat wasn’t being the most welcoming! Courtney also had great communication and took many photos. Thanks again!”
“My cat loves Maegan! I have had her take care of my cat multiple times, and I’m so pleased with care and connection she has with him. I highly recommend having Maegan care for all your fur babies 😻”
“Dodi has watched my cats a few times now, and she’s been great! I have a finicky, asthmatic female cat and a male cat with urinate issues, and Dodi is fantastic with the both of them! She sends wonderful updates, is very thorough, and offers to go above and beyond. She’s so great and the cats like her too!”
“Sabina was wonderful! She helped us in a pinch, was responsive, and took great care of our puppy. She sent pics and let us know how it went. Would DEFINITELY recommend!! Thank you!!”
“Alyssa was so easy to work with! She cared for my three cats while I was away for the week and was very communicative, caring, and responsive. I’d recommend her to anyone and happily work with her again.”
“We can't recommend Julia enough! Finding someone trustworthy for a high-energy puppy wasn't easy, but Julia has been a lifesaver. Reliable, friendly, and genuinely caring. The regular photos and detailed updates always brighten our workday, including funny photos of our cats adjusting to a new puppy brother. Our pets absolutely adore her!”
“Kevin is awesome! Went above and beyond to take care of my two cats. Helped me figure out what was wrong with my auto cleaning litter box. Couldn’t recommend him enough! Thanks again Kevin.”
“This was our 1st time using Rover. And finding Julie was the perfect way to start our Rover experience. She was super communicative. Even when we needed to message her in between drop ins. She followed the instructions about feeding exactly and carefully. The time she spent with our boys showed. Our one boy is super shy but warmed up to her almost immediately. She sent so many picture updates and notes about how our boys were doing. We won’t be looking any further the next time we need someone to come look after our 2, Julie will be our go to! Don’t hesitate just book Julie if you need a caring, thoughtful, and clear lover of animals to take care of your furry family members!”
“Hannah was very communicative and helpful. She took care of my boy on short notice and for a long time. I’m very grateful for her help, please book her!”
“Sydney is amazing!!! She has lots of experience working with dogs and it shows. Mine can be a bit rowdy at times but she had them sitting and calm within like a minute of being there! She’s super sweet and communicative as well. We would 100% use Sydney again. I had 0 concerns after meeting her and our experience was great!”
About: I grew up on an animal rescue and have been caring for animals my whole life! Extremely comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, cats, and even exotic animals! Im available with a flexible schedule, including weekends and weekdays. Afternoons are preferable but I am happy to adjust to your pet’s schedule and needs. I am experienced with caring for animals who require medications, need specific feeding accommodations, or are high energy on walks. You can trust me to keep your pet safe and cared for.
“Paige is AMAZING. She is extremely communicative and sent adorable photos to help me get through my time away from my puppy. I highly recommend using Paige! Timely, kind, and super helpful 🤍 THANK YOU PAIGE”
About: Hi there! I'm a reliable, compassionate dog lover who understands that every dog deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to make both you and your dog feel comfortable, safe, and confident every step of the way. I believe dogs are family, and I care for every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks, prefers a slower pace, or simply enjoys companionship, I'm happy to adapt to their unique personality, routine, and needs. I pay close attention to details, including feeding schedules, medications, preferred walking routes, potty breaks, and any special instructions you provide. I'm attentive during every walk and visit, always keeping your dog's safety as my top priority. I'll make sure they have plenty of exercise, affection, fresh water, and positive attention while they're with me. I understand that consistency is important, so I do my best to maintain the routine your dog is already familiar with. Communication is also very important to me. I'll keep you updated with photos, messages, and details about how your dog's visit or walk went, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I want you to know that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, cuddle, or simply enjoys a calm, reassuring presence, I'm committed to providing a positive experience filled with patience, love, and respect. My goal isn't just to walk dogs—it's to build lasting relationships with both pets and their owners based on trust, reliability, and genuine care. I cared for my miniature Sheltie from his energetic puppy years through his senior years, including helping him navigate severe rheumatoid arthritis with patience, love, and compassion. That experience taught me how important it is to be attentive to each dog's unique needs. I strive to provide every pet with thoughtful, reliable care, treating them like family because that's exactly what they deserve. I would be honored to care for your furry family member, and I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I recently transitioned from my full-time role as a paralegal at a law firm in downtown Boston and am dedicating my time throughout July and August to caring for pets. This allows me to offer a flexible schedule and give each dog the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether your pet needs a walk, companionship, or extra attention while you're away, I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care that gives you peace of mind and keeps your dog happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a fully fenced yard and live near several parks in Brighton's Oak Square neighborhood, providing plenty of opportunities for safe outdoor exercise and enrichment. I don't currently have a dog of my own, as my beloved Sheltie passed away two years ago, which means any dog in my care will receive my full attention. Whether I'm caring for a pet in my home or in a client's home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special care requests. I believe consistency helps dogs feel secure, so I take the time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and needs. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and low-stress environment where your dog feels cared for, happy, and at home while you're away.

Mirabel is a gem! Very reliable and has the touch with animals. All the pictures she sent of our Tommy show him relaxed and happy - he’s not used to having a sitter yet he responded by showing his belly to be petted. She’s calm and responsive which I think sets animals at ease - we look forward to hiring her again.
Alexa is an amazing cat sitter! She took great care of our 2 cats - coming morning and night to feed them, giving them lots of love, and make sure they were doing well while we were out of town for 5days. She absolutely went above and beyond, including searching the house for Daisy when she didn’t see her as usual one evening. Turned out Daisy had gotten locked in the attic after our cleaners came earlier that day, so we were very lucky Alexa was there and was so attentive and responsible. Thank you so much Alexa! We’d love to have you sit again for us in the future!
This is my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be happier. Rover offers a variety of sitters with all kinds of experience. I selected Allison to stop in and care for my cat Lady while I went on vacation. Allison was punctual, knowledgeable and a cat person. She came every day, about the same time, followed instructions concerning care and stayed and played with Lady. She took pictures of Lady everyday. I am very thankful for the excellent care and dependability that Allison provided. I would definitely call on Allison again.
We had a great experience with Allison caring for my 7-year-old large longhair cat, who has pica (a plastic-eating habit) and needs medication twice a day. Since he gets stressed if left alone too long, we booked two one-hour visits a day, and Allison was reliable and attentive every time. She followed all instructions carefully, but most importantly, she genuinely cares about my cat. He was happy, purring, safe, and healthy thanks to her professionalism and responsibility. She sent me regular updates on his condition, medication, eating habits, and litter box use, along with lots of photos. I was very worried about leaving him, but knowing he was in good hands let me focus on my business and relax. It was such a positive, successful experience for both of us. I can actually tell he missed her — she must have spent a lot of time playing and talking with him!
Ella was amazing to work with. She was super responsive and took excellent care of Blue. I loved how much feedback she gave in her rover cards. It was such a weight off my shoulders to know Blue was in good hands while I was away. I will definitely ask Ella to watch Blue again in the future.
Best cat sitting experience of our cat-having lives. Dennis is patient and knows that every cat has their own style, and somehow he found Minka’s and they became pals. Minka is shy and skittish but Dennis’s cat skills won out. She went from hiding from him to waiting for him at the window. He always stayed to play with this high energy lass. The updates really made our day every time. Dennis is the best there is.
Winita went above and beyond caring for Flynn. She asked all the right questions at our meet and greet, spent great quality time with him while we were away, and clearly took her job seriously. I’d recommend Winita to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their cat!
Isabel went above and beyond when I forgot to finish the booking after our interview, and visited him late at night once we figured it out. Vincent was very clearly taken care of very well while we were gone, and Isabel found his buttons right away with the right toys and the right games! Excellent work all around, thank you Isabel!
