Emma was fantastic. I have a dog and a cat with VERY different personalities and she went above and beyond with both. She took our dog on long walks and was so great with both of them. She followed every instruction and sent us LOADS of pictures and updates making us feel so comfortable on vacation. Without a doubt using her moving forward!

Sabrina was very kind and patient with Aelin. I will book her once we’re ready to try babysitting at our place again. Would recommend Sabrina to others :)

Gabby was a great sitter for Dunbar and Brownie! This is the first time we had a sitter stay in our home and she made it so easy for us and our pups. She is a great communicator and left the house spotless. We will definitely work with Gabby for future needs!

Lydia stayed with my dog in my apartment for 4 nights. She was incredibly respectful, asked thoughtful questions, and catered to my dogs needs in such hot weather! She left my apartment spotless which was entirely unnecessary but incredibly appreciated. Lydia is very responsible and any pup would be lucky to hang out with her.

My experience with Sev was great! She responded to my inquiry promptly and also confirmed her arrival time on the day of the appointment. She has a lot of experience and took great care of my puppies Lizzy and Ollie while I was out. This was the first time the puppies had a sitter, and I came home to happy pups with wagging tails so it was a big success! I received updates with photos while I was away, and Sev was patient and firm with the pups (11 weeks old). Sev even offered to help me put away my groceries and getting the pups to sleep. I’d highly recommend Sev’s service to anyone looking for a sitter.

We had a great experience with Megan dog sitting in our home. She came over for a meet and greet before the stay and navigated a logistically complicated situation where we had to split the stay between two sitters. Our pup Brodie took to Megan right away. She was able to administer medication to Brodie and sent us wonderful updates all weekend. She even went above and beyond to wash and fold our bedsheets! We’d love to have Megan back to watch Brodie.

Lauren was very kind to help us when our pet sitter cancelled on us a week before a family event. She stepped in and took wonderful care of our dogs. We will absolutely contact her whenever we are in the Boston area again. Thank you Lauren - we really appreciate all your help!

We came home to a very happy cat and a tidy home! I would highly recommend Volkan for house sitting. Our cat Luna warmed up to Volkan quickly and we really appreciated that he works from home and spent so much time with her.

This was our first time using Rover (or anyone but family to watch our dog) and it was for a last minute vacation. May fit in a meet and greet days before we were leaving and Boots took to her right away. While we were gone May kept us updated both via text and with adorable photos/videos of our pup, which put us at ease. She also took great care of our house.

Paul has been super professional every step of the way. He was prompt in setting up a meet and greet, on time, and communicated well. He also caught my mistake when I initially booked for the wrong days. We received some updates while we were gone, which was appreciated, but most importantly, our girl was clearly well taken care of. She's old and thrives on routine, and she looked like she barely noticed we were gone when we returned. It's really nice to know that she was in great hands. Bonus: I think our apartment was actually cleaner when we returned. 5+ stars.
