About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and have been around dogs my entire life. I’m experienced with all kinds of personalities, from shy and nervous to playful and energetic. I have a sweet, friendly one year old Poochon who loves making new friends. Dogs in my care become part of our family. My husband is home during the day, my adult daughter works from home, and my teenage daughter loves dogs and enjoys helping too. This means your pup will have plenty of attention and will never be left home alone. I occasionally have one or two other friendly boarding dogs staying with us, so it’s important that your dog is comfortable around other dogs. They spend their days playing, relaxing, and getting lots of love and attention together. I believe in clear communication and will always follow your instructions, prioritize your dog’s safety, and send regular updates with photos. Thank you for considering me! I’d love the opportunity to make your pup feel safe, loved, and right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m very flexible and available every day of the week. I love the outdoors and staying active, so walks and drop ins are an easy, consistent part of my day. I can accommodate last minute requests, follow your pet’s routine closely, and I always provide reliable care with clear updates each visit. Clean, calm, pet friendly home with a large backyard and plenty of room to play. My friendly 1 year old Poochon is home, so I only accept dogs who are comfortable around other dogs. I closely follow your routine (feeding, potty schedule, and house rules) and send photo updates. I have video cameras in the home for safety, and someone is home 24/7 for supervision and care.
“Lin did an amazing job looking after our two cats while we were away for two weeks. She quickly got our super shy cat to come out of hiding and play with toys. We got great daily photos of the cats. We will definitely have Lin cat sit again.”
About: I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs and flat faced dogs, frenchies, pugs, bulldogs, etc. I own two French bulldogs myself and administer all types of medication. I am semi-retired from a Corporate career and have recently decided to start my own dog walking business. I am currently trying to build up my clientele to hopefully create a doggie daycare in the near future. I will have a fenced in yard by the end of summer 2025, currently in progress. I have a few separate areas where pups can relax and veg out as well as play inside.
“Leonardo took wonderful care of my two senior cats, including one that requires medication twice a day, while I was gone for the weekend. They were clearly well tended to when I came home. He was very communicative and lovely to work with. I would definitely choose Leonardo again and recommend others to do the same!”
About: Hi! I have been caring for others pets since I was about 8 years old and would walk my neighbors dog! I have been a dog groomer for about 10.5 years, I am pet CPR/safety certified. I also have experience giving both cats and dogs medication as my own both take daily medication. I can’t remember my life without pets! I work part time so I am available mornings and late afternoon/nights to care for your pets! Great for escaping the summer heat on our walks! My babies are my family and I will treat your pets with the same respect! One of the most rewarding experiences is helping a nervous animal come out of their shell. Would love to walk your pups and care for them in your home
About: Hi! I’m Rose, a reliable and caring animal lover based in the Quincy area. I have 4 cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with daily pet care routines and giving animals lots of attention and love. We also had a 15-year-old Shih Tzu who passed away in 2022 and over the past year I’ve been walking and caring for dogs for rover clients. I am currently taking the year off from teaching so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week! I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks, and can be accommodating with last-minute requests when needed. I will be actively engaging with your fur baby! I love taking them on walks and to parks depending on their needs! I will make sure to follow your instructions on their feeding schedule to keep a controlled diet
About: I’m a proud dog mom to a 9 month old Golden Retriever. Through raising and training him, I’ve gained experience with puppy routines, leash walking, feeding schedules, crate training, potty training, and handling high energy dogs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and I’ll always make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine since I have a young Golden Retriever of my own. My schedule allows me flexibility for walks, drop in visits, and quality time with your fur babies throughout the week. I’m reliable, communicative, and always make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, especially someone new. I’m very attentive, patient, caring, and I always want all pets to feel comfortable and loved while in my care. Raising my Golden Retriever has taught me the importance of consistency, attention, and creating a calm and positive environment for dogs. I’ll treat your fur babies as my own.
“Ashley was awesome! As a new puppy parent, you’re always worried about your first time with the dog walker and someone taking care of your baby when you’re not home but Ashley took all my worries away! she was communicative, and got all the energy out of my little one! Everything you could want in a dog walker! Will definitely be requesting Ashleys help again!”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing personalized care that goes beyond the basics. I understand that every pet is an individual with unique needs and quirks, and I tailor my approach to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's patiently training puppies with positive reinforcement techniques or providing gentle, attentive care to senior dogs, I have the experience and skills to handle a variety of situations. More than just a sitter, I strive to be a trusted companion for your furry friend, offering engaging playtime, enriching activities, and plenty of cuddles. With me, you can rest assured that your pets will receive the highest level of care and attention, leaving you with peace of mind while you're away. I offer flexible availability and am currently accepting bookings Thursday through Saturday for dog walks, drop-in visits, and home boarding. My primary job has a flexible schedule, so if you have a request outside of my listed availability or need care at a specific time, please don't hesitate to reach out! I'm always happy to review requests and will do my best to accommodate your pet's needs whenever possible. Caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, begins with understanding that each animal is an individual with unique needs and preferences. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for every pet under my care. This involves removing any potential hazards, providing a cozy space for relaxation, and ensuring access to fresh food and water at all times. Regular exercise is also key, tailored to the pet's age, breed, and energy level, whether it's a brisk walk for a young pup or gentle playtime for a senior dog. Beyond the basics, I'm highly attentive to each pet's behavior and health, watching for any signs of discomfort or distress. Most importantly, I always adhere closely to the owner's instructions, ensuring that their beloved companions receive the same level of care and attention they would at home.
“Juliette is everything we needed - friendly, responsive, on time, caring to our fur baby, and communicative. She also took some of the best pictures of Chessie we've ever seen! It was fun to see the pics every day. We had peace of mind when we were away and are looking forward to having her cat sit again.”
“Jaiming sent such thorough notes and photos from her visits. It made me feel so much better leaving my older kitty alone for a few days while we travel. I am so grateful for the TLC she showed to our senior kitty and how willing she was to take extra steps to make sure she got the care she needed.”
About: Searching for a reliable person that's there for you and your pets? Look no further! I'm ready to go above and beyond to make sure you and your pet are happy with the services I provide. Expect updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away worry-free! I am home full-time, so your pet has unlimited love throughout the day. There will be many enrichment toys, walks, and a ton of love so your pup will not be bored when they're here! I have an unfenced yard, so dogs will be supervised on leash at all times. Regular updates with photos/videos so you're never left guessing how your pup is doing!
“Kennedy has been wonderful. Coming almost weekly and sometimes multiple times a day for the last two months. She’s been a real support for us. Brodie will miss his visits from her.”

Deb was wonderful and took a very last minute booking from us. Not only was she able to take our booking but she also accommodated a last minute meet and greet. She was amazing with Libby and we appreciated her flexibility! Will definitely book again! Thanks Deb
Elena bailed us out many times helping out with Charlee and Rudy! She provided great care, many pictures and somehow figured out exactly what they wanted to spend their time with her, looking for chipmunks and playing ball. Elena was always on time and we never had to worry about making sure the pups had fun. 👍🏾
Molly was fabulous. She took excellent care of our dog and cat for several days. Molly was always on time and she was very communicative. She reached out immediately when the dog was refusing to follow the schedule that I provided. I appreciated her honesty and her patience. I highly recommend Molly.
Grace is super friendly, arrived early, and my dog absolutely loved her. I really appreciated that her calendar accurately reflected her availability, which made booking so easy. It gives me great peace of mind knowing my dog will be in such good hands while I’m away. Can’t wait to have her back!
Madison from the moment I first spoke with her showed intent interest in making sure to try to get to know and understand my dog as best as she could. She has an innate talent and comfort around animals and was able to get my boy to trust her within minutes of them first meeting. She always took the time to make sure he was cared for and looked after and always went above and beyond to make sure he was always looked after. I will always feel comfortable having her look after my dog and am confident any pet in her care is in good hands.
Valerie is always amazing with our puppy, Blue! She has watched him multiple times and we always know he’s in great hands. Blue absolutely loves her and she’s always so kind, reliable, and attentive with him. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s with someone who cares about him so much. We truly appreciate her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful sitter!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Braintree stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Braintree choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Braintree with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
