I was in town for work and needed a dog sitter and Miliana was wonderful! She was very communicative leading up to it, and sent me lots of pics and updates. Being from out of town I was slightly nervous but she made me feel very comfortable and she was very trustworthy. Charlie was happy when I got back! Would use her again!!

Nyla absolutely loves her walks/adventure time with David! She also has opportunities to socialize with other dogs in a regular basis which is so very important to me to her overall well being. I appreciate David’s understanding of this and ensuring that Nylas needs and her little personality are recognized and appreciated. He has also,(more than once) been flexible in taking Nyla on last minute occasions if needed. He is also very prompt in responding communication wise.

Ella has helped me with my dog on many occasions. She walks Simon on a weekly basis, and also boards him whenever we need to leave town. Simon also loves to spend time with Felix and Milo (Ellas cute cats), we've received many adorable photos of them playing and snuggling together. Ella and Ciara are very responsive and timely, we love them! We know Simon is always in good hands with these 2 and we can't recommend them enough for your furry friends!

Tucker is amazing!! Unfortunately we could not meet before their first walk, but Tucker sent me videos and updates of him meeting my pup Freya which immediately put me at ease. I could see that he took it slow and let Freya get comfortable first. I got lots more pictures and videos throughout the walk, and a very detailed report afterwards. I look forward to having Tucker walk Freya again!

Ren's love and affection for all dogs is unmatched. She is incredibly caring and thoughtful, especially when it comes to friendly dogs. Not only does she enjoy her time on walks or playing in the park with them, but she is extremely responsible and takes her role very seriously when placed in charge of someone's dog. I would recommend Ren to anyone for all your dog walking needs.

Danielle is a trustworthy, communicative, and reliable dog walker! I trust her with my 5 year old dog anytime I need someone to take good care of him! I know she will get him the exercise he needs and give him lots of love and attention too! She’s experienced with giving medications so when she watches him overnight I always know he is getting his meds and I never have to worry. I would not hesitate to recommend Danielle to anyone looking for the perfect Rover walker for their best furiend ☺️

About: Hi there, my name is Emily and I have lived in the Boston area for nearly 5 years since graduating undergrad at Bates College. My career has taken me to jobs at Dana Farber Cancer Institute (4-5 years) and most recently in health consulting since receiving my Masters Degree in Public Health through Tufts University. I have cared for many families over the years caring for kiddos and furry family members. While my family pup lives in Maine with my parents, I’m here to help you with yours! Whether that be helping out with getting their walkies in, letting some of that zoomie energy out, or pet sitting in here to assist! I currently work from home and have mid-week flexibility for dog walking and pet sitting! I can be flexible based on your needs for weekday or weekend options. I’m comfortable working with the system you have set up for your pup to maintain any consistency of routines and what may be best for you!

Olivia has been a wonderful caretaker for my pup, Fenway! She has been watching him since he was just 9 weeks old and she’s knowledgeable in every phase of his journey. She’s the best about sending pictures/videos while I’m out of town or just while they’re on a walk - and man is he always SO happy with her! Olivia’s energy is calm, loving, and caring and because of that, she’s Fenway’s favorite babysitter. We’re so lucky to have her!!

Catherine is a patient, attentive, and diligent person. These attributes have allowed her to be an exceptional caretaker to her own French bulldog and pets of friends and family members. With her own frenchie, she has been patient during the crate, pee pad, and walking learning process, attentive to dog behavior, and diligent with rewarding good behavior and redirecting unhealthy ones to foster positive and loving environment. Additionally, she is caring with pets and respects and honors the standards set by owners.

About: I am from Chicago, Illinois, where I am a volunteer and foster at St. Sophia's Forgotten Felines, a non-profit organization for cats. I was also a foster at WrightWay Rescue for dogs. I am trained in administering medicine as well as taking care of senior cats and dogs. I'm currently in college, however my school days are only 4 hours Monday-Thursday! I am available immediately after school hours as well as all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday! I am willing to move around client schedules! I feed them at the preferred times of the client, as well as taking them on bi-hourly walks or whatever consistency is required. I also give them medicine if need be. I also clean up after the animals in the case of a mess with food or accidents as well as in the backyard.

About: Experience: 🐶 Canine Companionship: I've had the pleasure of sharing my life with dogs of various breeds and sizes. From playful pups to wise seniors, I've enjoyed every moment of building lasting bonds with our canine friends. 🐱 Kitten Expertise: Adopting several kittens has given me hands-on experience with the unique energy and needs of our feline friends. Whether it's playtime, feeding, or providing a cozy spot for a catnap, I've got it covered. Specialty: Senior Pet Care One area where I truly shine is in caring for our senior pets. I've taken on the responsibility of looking after numerous senior dogs for family members, ensuring they receive the extra attention, care, and patience they deserve. From administering medications to creating a comfortable environment, I understand the nuances of senior pet care. What Sets Me Apart: 🤗 Personalized Care: I believe in tailoring my care to meet the individual needs and preferences of each pet. Whether it's a favorite game or a particular treat, I strive to make your pet feel right at home. 🏡 Home Away from Home: My space is pet-friendly, offering a safe and welcoming environment for your furry friends. They'll be treated like part of the family, receiving the love and attention they deserve. I'm currently working from home, have a very flexible schedule, and am located in downtown Boston. I am open to multiple visits per day, drop ins, or short (or long) walks. In My Home: Designated Pet Area: Create a comfortable and safe space for your pet within your home, equipped with bedding, toys, and necessary essentials. Regular Exercise: Ensure daily walks, playtime, or interactive activities to keep your pet physically and mentally stimulated. Nutritious Meals: Provide a balanced and appropriate diet for your pet's age, size, and health needs. Regular Vet Visits: Schedule routine veterinary check-ups to monitor your pet's health and address any concerns promptly. In Your Home (Pet Sitting): Meet and Greet: Prior to the pet-sitting period, meet your pet to establish familiarity and discuss specific care instructions. Follow Your Routine: Stick to the pet's usual schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to maintain a sense of normalcy. Communication: Keep open communication with you, providing updates and photos/videos to assure them that their pet is in good hands. Emergency Preparedness: I like to stay aware of emergency contacts, veterinary information, and any special instructions in case unexpected situations arise.

About: I have only had one pet of my own, his name was Birdie ($5 off your first booking if you guess the animal type :)) However, I have taken care of my friends' pets since high school. My parents weren't pet people, but I am. I don't have the space to have my own (yet!), but would love to help take care of your pets when I can. Please feel free to ask any questions. I want to ensure I am the right person for you and your loved one(s). I am applying to multiple part-time jobs at the moment, but I promise I will always make this one my top priority (because it really is the most fun one). My schedule is flexible, so let me know what you need, and then I'll figure out the rest. I promise to treat your home and your pets as if they were my own (feels like Rover is really rubbing it in my face that I don't have my own yet though -- just jokes, pet care comes at a cost but jokes are free!)
