“Janette and her family, including their dog Luna, are so wonderful to our dog, Lenny. She is so kind and communicative! Lenny loves spending time with them and going for walks in their beautiful neighborhood. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dog!”

“Sophie had a great day with Andrew! She had a few nature walks that I can never give her. She loved her day away from home. Andrew is excellent to work with and incredibly professional. He was consistently quick to respond and sent lots of pictures of their day together. Andrew had Sophie this summer for a long weekend and Sophie returned home happy as could be! It's as though she was with family. Thanks, Andrew, for making her days so enjoyable!”

“Oana and Oliver are wonderful dog sitters!! They are kind, easy going, and always send the best pictures! We had an extenuating circumstance with our trip and they were completely accommodating and understanding. I highly recommend them for all doggy daycare and sitting needs!!”

“I’ve known Junho and his adorable dog Boki since Boki was just a tiny three-month-old puppy, back when we first met in our apartment building. Over the years, I’ve seen how much care Junho gives to Boki, and how gentle and kind he is with other dogs he meets on their walks. When Junho started Rover, I knew right away that I could trust him with T-Rex. My dog requires extra care and attention due to specific conditions, and Junho followed all of my instructions thoroughly. He even sent me multiple photos and updates without me having to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind. If you’re looking for a sitter, I highly recommend Junho. He’s easy to work with, and his wonderful dog Boki will make a great companion for yours. Boki is super friendly and loves to play, but also knows how to give space if another dog isn’t in the mood.”

“Lexi took great care of Emmy during her daycare visit! She was very attentive to Emmy’s needs and made sure she felt comfortable and happy throughout the day. We appreciated all of the updates Lexi sent us during the visit!”

“Cardinal had so much fun at his small-dog play date!! I appreciated that Betsy took time for a thoughtful meet and greet so that I was sure he would feel comfortable! I was very happy that he could enjoy time outside of his crate with other dogs in a warm and caring environment! Will definitely book again!!”

“Elizabeth and Rodrigo genuinely love Fitzgerald. Their home is loving and they are kind, communicative, and considerate dog lovers. We love visiting them cause Fitzgerald always wags his tail extra hard during drop offs, and comes home happy as can be. Anyone looking for a loving pair to watch their pup would be lucky to have them say yes!”

“Yuna had such a wonderful time at daycare with August and Miu Miu! August was so communicative and kind and treated Yuna like a princess. Highly recommend this lovely family for any pet care needs!!”

About: I'd love to welcome your dog into our family (with 2 kids, ages 9 and 12) for daytime visits or overnight stays. I am working primarily from home, my calm Beagle-Mini Pin mix Sarah—affectionately called "the meagle"—enjoys having canine companions! With a lifetime of dog ownership experience, I'll ensure your pet receives expert care and plenty of entertainment, including regular walks in our nearby park. Whether you need daytime hosting, walking services, or overnight care, I'm happy to help. I am working primarily from my home office, so I will be available to walk, play with, and keep your dog company throughout the day. I provide at least three daily walks on a nearby walking path, plus additional indoor and supervised backyard play time (on leash, as our yard is unfenced).
“Ben was super flexible with our schedule and very quick to respond / help us out. The whole family jumped in to keep our pup well engaged all day, and we sincerely appreciate their support. Will absolutely reach out again when in need!”


“We appreciated Paul’s help with a last minute request to watch our pup for two days over MLK weekend. He was patient with Gracie, as she was getting used to being in a new person’s house.”

We are living in a small 2-beds house in Arlington, MA. We have a fenced backyard and one friendly medium size dog named Sammy to keep your dog company.

Janette and her family, including their dog Luna, are so wonderful to our dog, Lenny. She is so kind and communicative! Lenny loves spending time with them and going for walks in their beautiful neighborhood. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dog!

Jingjing and family were all very kind and thoughtful. Remy had a couple of accidents during daycare (he’s recently started marking and sometimes goes a bit overboard) and these were met with absolute understanding and grace. He had a good time playing with another dog they were watching and seems to have enjoyed his day overall!

Jessica was wonderful with my dog. She was a great communicator and kept me updated, which really put me at ease. She took my dog on nice walks around her neighborhood and clearly cared about making sure she was happy and well taken care of. I’d definitely book with her again!

Sophie had a great day with Andrew! She had a few nature walks that I can never give her. She loved her day away from home. Andrew is excellent to work with and incredibly professional. He was consistently quick to respond and sent lots of pictures of their day together. Andrew had Sophie this summer for a long weekend and Sophie returned home happy as could be! It's as though she was with family. Thanks, Andrew, for making her days so enjoyable!
