Marcus was wonderful with my GSD Izzy! She took to him immediately and he showered her with attention to her unabashed delight. He was prompt, reliable and responsive.

About: Based in Beacon Hill, I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from cheeky puppies to sweet seniors. I grew up in a big dog loving family so I am comfortable with feeding routines, long walks, playtime, including running around with them to help burn off energy, and administering medication when needed. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed while they are away from their owners. I take the time to understand each pet’s behavior and personality, since every animal is different in their own unique and wonderful way. My priority is making sure your pet is happy so you can enjoy your time without worrying. I am patient, reliable, and happy to send updates and photos upon request. I am also flexible, able to visit multiple times a day, and can accommodate last-minute requests. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide reliable and consistent care. I am currently a senior in college and work in a hybrid role that only requires me to be in the office once a week for a couple hours. Because of this, I have plenty of availability throughout the day. I am able to visit pets up to four times a day if needed, and my routine is not fixed, so I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Flexibility is one of my biggest strengths, and I take pride in being able to accommodate a variety of schedules, including last-minute requests. In your home, I follow all instructions carefully and treat the space with care. Pets are always leashed during walks and only unleashed once the door is securely closed. If there are multiple pets, I separate them during mealtime when appropriate to avoid any tension. Before I leave, I double-check that doors are locked, lights and appliances are turned off, and your home is left exactly as I found it. Your pets' safety and your peace of mind are always my top priority. On hot days, I make sure they are always hydrated, and am careful of asphalt. Plus, if there are any individual safety requirements, I can happily abide.

Stacy was superb! We had a last minute need due to our flight getting cancelled and Stacy was very communicative and flexible during a moment of a lot of stress. My pups were very well taken care of and I got lots of pictures. My house was well taken care of as well. Would definitely book her again in the future.

Alyssa watched our young husky for the day while we were at work and did a great job! She kept us updated, kept him occupied, took him out often since he’s still potty training, and gave him a nice long walk. It was incredibly reassuring knowing he was being well cared for

My wife and I are first time dog owners who recently got a puppy. Anastasia took care of him for an evening while we were away and did a fantastic job! Theo was so comfortable with her and the peace of mind knowing that he was safe and well cared for is all I could ask for. Will definitely be working with Anastasia again!

Aubrey was wonderful! She took great care of our dog Tiny. Tiny can be nervous around strangers but Aubrey took the time to meet Tiny before the stay and was patient with her which was so great. She left our house very tidy and sent us updates and pictures of Tiny during the stay. We will definitely ask Aubrey again if we need a sitter. Thank you so much!

Willow has been incredible with our dog, who can be very anxious around new people. What began as walks has grown into home stays when we travel. She’s dependable, thoughtful, and we’re so thankful to have found her.

About: I have experience sitting for a variety of dogs and cats, and have developed a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and attentiveness when it comes to pet care. I’m comfortable following specific routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or administering basic care, and I always make sure pets are safe and comfortable in my care. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and needs, so I can adjust to their energy level whether they love long walks and playtime or prefer a calmer, more relaxed environment. I’m also very communicative and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands! I look forward to creating a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners! I recently graduated from Northeastern University, and now I am working part time at a physical therapy clinic. From May through the end of July, I am fully available on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends. I work part-time on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; however, I am available for walks after 3:30 PM on Fridays! Pet care easily fits into my routine, and I am committed to providing consistent attention, exercise, and reliable care for your pets! I will also be attending physical therapy school in the fall, and I am using Rover as a way to help support my graduate education while continuing to do something I love: Caring for animals! I always prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in any environment. I carefully follow all instructions you provide, such as feeding routines, walk routes, medication (if needed), or any other specific preferences your pet has. For walks, I make sure dogs are securely leashed at all times and stay aware of our surroundings to keep them safe. I adjust the pace and length of walks based on your dog’s age, energy level, and needs to ensure they stay comfortable. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets get not only the essentials like food, water, and bathroom breaks, but also attention, playtime, and companionship. I take time to understand each pet’s personality so I can create a calm, positive experience. I’m also very respectful of your home and will keep everything clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. Communication is important to me, so I’ll always send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.

Masi did an amazing job watching out wheaten terrier, Trigo! He hasn't had many dog sitters so he tends to be a little jumpy and nervous at first but Masi knew exactly how to calm him down and make sure he was comfortable. We loved getting the video and photo updates and felt confident that Trigo was in the best of care. Thanks so much!!

Jamie was so great!! We booked her for dog sitting, while my wife and I went out to dinner. She is very responsive and made herself readily available for a meet and greet with our pup. We were a little worried about our high energy pup and having someone else watch him for the night, but Jamie came in confident and ready to take care of our little guy. Definitely recommend and will definitely book her service again soon!

About: I grew up with cats and dogs; they have always been a big part of my life. I will treat your dog as if they are my own with lots of love and care. I am available during the most weekdays and weekends and I am happy to accommodate to your schedule and your pets needs! I am excited to get to know your pet and ensure they get lots of love. At home, I walk my dog two times a day for at least 30 minutes allowing per to sniff and meet many other dogs. If the weather permits, I will take her on an adventure to run around at the near by beach or dog park.

Kate was a great sitter who took care of my senior (19) kitty with special needs requiring daily medication and lots of attention, as well as my four backyard chickens! She left the house clean and even washed the sheets she slept on. She was very responsive and communicative with me throughout the whole four day house sitting visit. I would recommend her as your next sitter.

Mabel had gotten a little sick while Sam was with her and she let us know the next morning after taking good care of her and tracking what happened throughout the day. Definitely a trustworthy sitter and we look forward to working with her again!
