“Mariella looked after my baby like he was her own! She sent me tons of pictures and videos and was very quick to respond to me!:) it looked like Toby had a great time with her and I will definitely use her services again!”
“OMG. Valerie is so amazing!! Not only do I have a diabetic dog who requires 2 needles a day, 2 days before my booking he got an ear infection that required antibiotics and the day after he got an eye infection!!! Valerie took it all in stride and communicated with me to coordinate with my sister to get meds. AND she also had my cat. I was away for a month and she made it so easy not to worry about my fur babies. Her home is clean, modern and her own animals are obviously well cared for. Highly, highly recommend. I’d give her 10 stars if I could ☺️”
“Michelle is a lovely host. Our 5 year old retriever ran right into her house upon our arrival and first meeting and fit right in from there. Balto took a few last pets from Michelle on pickup and seemed almost reluctant to leave. Anyone looking for a warm loving environment for their animal should not hesitate to trust Michelle and her family to look after your cherished pet.”
“Gail was awesome, taking care of our dog Wally in her home for 5 days and nights in March 2026. Wally was walked 3x per day, and we felt totally comfortable after an initial meet and greet that Wally would be in good hands while we went on vacation. Gail accommodated an early morning drop off so we could catch our flights. And we got lots of pictures while away which we loved. If you need someone to take care of your dog, and love them like you do, don’t hesitate to contact Gail !”
“I left my 15 year old cat with Taryn for 14 days. He is extremely bonded with me and is quite sociable at home in his own familiar surroundings. Bailey had a difficult time adjusting to new surroundings without his people and pretty much stayed in one area of the house. Taryn was good at sending updates and pictures regularly. She spent quality time with Bailey assuring he was in a safe place. Sure enough just days before I came to get him did he get more courageous to tour more of her house. When I picked Bailey up, he looked almost healthier than when I dropped him off although he wasn’t ill. I’m so very thankful I met Taryn. She’s very knowledgeable about feline behaviour and has a huge heart for all animals. Bailey is ecstatic to be home with his person and we are both very thankful for the love and care he received.”
“Kayla took excellent care of Neo. He is a big boy with some nervous triggers and Kayla was able to show gentle support for him and genuinely cared about making him feel comfortable. When we showed up for a meet and greet, Kayla even had a new toy for Neo! Neo came home happy! She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend as well for our ability to know he was safe and doing ok.. We will be calling Kayla again for our Neo!!”
“We recently adopted Daisy (our 80+ lb lap dog), and because of her size, we were nervous about finding the right fit for her first time away from us. From the very first message and phone call, through to a meet & greet, Catharine was welcoming and clearly confident in handling large dogs. Daisy had a bit of trouble settling in on her first night, and Catharine immediately reached out to collaborate with us on how to make her comfortable. Throughout the 5-night stay, Daisy was treated like family and Catharine provided fantastic updates and photos - long walks, patio lunches, lots of sun-bathing and fun :) When we picked Daisy up, she was happy, exhausted, and clearly incredibly well-loved. Catharine is professional, communicative, and truly an expert caregiver. We will absolutely be rebooking for future trips when available!”
“I can't say enough good things about Nathaly Leaving my dog for the first time was nerve-wracking, but they made the experience so much easier. They cared for my pup like their own—playing with him, keeping him happy, and ensuring he felt safe and loved the entire time. The regular photo updates were a lifesaver and truly reassured me that he was in great hands. I could see how much fun he was having, and it meant the world to me.”
“Excellent! Prashant and his family treat our dog like a King. We are so happy knowing they take excellent care of our baby and would recommend this loving family to everyone.”
“We left our 5month old pup with Cindy, she took good care of him. He came home very healthy and happy. She sent constant updates and kept our Leo safe. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter, she is the best. I would definitely leave our Leo again with her.”
About: I have cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes for the past 10 years including my own, and those of family and friends! I would love to host your furry loved ones in my home. I am currently on Maternity leave and am home 7 days a week. I can provide 24/7 care with overnight breaks and daily walks. I’m happy to work with your dogs routine. I have a fenced yard with lots of space to play. Pets are never caged and always welcome to roam free in my home! I am comfortable administering medications and working with senior and special needs animals.
“We are extremely happy we had to leave our home with short noses and with no hesitation Randi helped us oh and Trip had a ball And I was sleeping because he’s exhausted all the fun he had with her and your family”
“Fionn had an awesome time with Stefanie and her pack this past weekend. Stefanie is extremely responsive in all her communications, and everything felt so easy and seamless. We look forward to having Fionn board with Malofy Pack again very soon!”
About: I have a innate love of animals. Large or small, confident or timid, young or old, they all have a place in my heart. I am patient, adaptable and calm even when others may not be. My critical thinking skills help me to troubleshoot any situation your pet might challenge me with. I always look for a win-win outcome. Your pets walk and play time every day is an important part of their lives, and I look forward to spending my time with them. Georgia is an American Staffy that we rescued last year, at approximately 1 years old. Since then we have focused on all levels of training, including agility, to help deal with her reactivity. We have made tremendous progress over the last year with her. I am available between 7 and 6 Monday to Saturday. Sundays and holidays can also be accommodated. My flexible schedule means that I can provide care on your schedule. I know that timing and routine are important to your pet and yourself, and I am punctual and dependable. I understand how important the safety of your furry friend is to you. Should your pet join us in our home, they will have the opportunity to enjoy our fully fenced back yard during play time. During walking times, there are many lovely trails and pathways in our quiet residential neighborhood that we can enjoy together.
“I was dubious about leaving my dogs with someone I didn't know, but the couple I decided to leave them with are simply amazing!! My dogs loved them so much and they created a bond with the sitters dog too. I received daily updates and photos and was so happy to know by babies were in safe hands. Thank you so much for raking care of my fur babies. I will definitely be in contact again, and I highly recommend this couple to look after your dogs in a safe friendly and caring home.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cambridge
Kayla was absolutely wonderful with our dog for a week! She kept us updated every day with lots of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and active with our dog, and it was clear that he was having an amazing time. Honestly, it felt like our dog was on a vacation of his own! He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely book with Kayla again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive!
We couldn't have asked for a better first Rover experience! Leaving our puppy, Buddy, for the first time was nerve-wracking, but Nathaly, Armando and family immediately put our minds at ease. From the moment we dropped him off, and even early on during a meet and greet, it was clear he was in caring and capable hands. The regular updates, photos, videos, and notes helped us stay connected and reassured while we were away. Seeing Buddy happy, comfortable, and having fun made all the difference. They treated Buddy like one of their own, and we're so grateful for the love, attention, and care they gave him. Thank you for making our first experience away from our little pup such a positive one. We wouldn't hesitate to book with you again - and in fact we already have. We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!
Our first boarding was a great experience! Radhika and Sayan was absolutely wonderful—friendly, caring, and so welcoming. They spoiled Ellie, gave her great care and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us such peace of mind as first timers. In photos Ellie was happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend they and I will continue to book Radhika and Sayan.
Michelle C. was absolutely outstanding. My first time leaving my pup with someone for such a long period of time, I was a bit nervous at first. She arranged for us to have a meet and greet, and I immediately felt at ease. Her children were also very lovely, and they bonded with Rufus, which made it that much nicer. Michelle sent me updated pictures of Rufus to help with leaving him, and when we picked him up, he was happy and very healthy. When we go away again, we will definitely leave Rufus with Michelle. Thank you for everything.
This was my first time booking a sitter through Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Victorias communication was top notch, and was able to work around my schedule and the needs of my pups. Looking forward to the next time my guys get to hang out with their new friend!
Divya and Vaibhav took such loving and thorough care of my dog for 4 days. We were always updated with photos, videos and daily activities. They got creative with solutions when my dog was having feeding challenges and made sure she was fed and exercised. They made sure her normal routine was maintained but also went over and beyond to provide additional enrichment activities. They really treated Bell like one of their own and Bell seemed so happy with them. I would recommend both of them anytime for dog sitting.
Rafael and his family were very loving towards Bella during her stay with them. They communicated with us on a regular basis and even taught her a new trick ( dancing) that they shared with us in a video. We are definitely going to use Rafael again. Bella really enjoyed her stay with them. Thanks again

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cambridge home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favourite hang-out spots in your Cambridge
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
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.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
