“Stacy has been a lifesaver. We moved to the Boston area with little notice, and our mini poodle needed a dog walker on the days me and my spouse were at the office. Stacy stepped in and has taken excellent walks, and is super communicative and responsive. Our pooch and we are super happy with Stacy's service.”

“Rachel was a huge help when I was out of town for the weekend, walking and feeding my girl who has some behavioral issues. She was communicative, kind, and most of all - great with my pup! Thanks for everything and will definitely book again!”

About: I’ve had pets since I was a child - cats, ferrets, rabbits, you name it. In 2021, I got my first cat as an adult — a British Shorthair kitten from Russia and he is well taken care of. Many friends, clients and family members have relied on me to take care of their cats. I am a writer and was a former book publicist for the last 6 years. I’m now writing full time with pet sitting as my other job! I have a lot of flexibility and time to travel to client’s homes. I will treat your pets and home they are our my own. I have two cats that live with me in Cambridge and will always put 100% effort in to taking care of your cat.

“Taylor helped us out when our usual dog sitter was away. She stepped right in to our routine and was great to work with. When we need help again I will call her!”

“James is wonderful with our dog Archie. He is kind, reliable, and responsive. He took his time to get to know and bond our dog and is very observant. He always leaves detailed notes and points out anything unusual. I can’t recommend him enough.”

About: I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy, providing patient care for senior pets, or handling unique needs like medication or special diets, I’m confident in creating a safe and happy environment. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and my commitment to treating every pet as if they were my own. I’m skilled in recognizing subtle behavior changes that may signal discomfort or stress, and I’m comfortable administering medication, reinforcing training routines, and customizing care based on your pet’s unique personality. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I’ll always go the extra mile to ensure they feel loved and secure while you’re away. I’m currently an undergraduate student. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am more than happy to adjust my schedule to meet your needs. Thank you for your consideration! I have plenty of experience walking dogs on a leash. I am able to crate a dog as well as give pill medication, and feed all animals.
About: Hello! I am a big animal lover and would love to spend time walking with your dog! Thank you for the trust with your pet! I am artist and book my schedule in advance when I can but still often have openings one week in advance to the day of. I am open to booking regular weekly apts. I am also open to last minute apts if my availability is open for the day. I am unable to bring other animals into my home. At your home I will be respectful of your space and attentive to your pets needs.

“Ashley was phenomenal - she helped me when my dogsitter cancelled last minute, was super responsive, and left my dog happy and exercised. Can’t thank you enough!”

About: Hello! I currently work full-time at MIT, but have several work-from-home days during which I would love to care for your dog or cat! I am available for at home drop-ins, walks, and over-night sitting! I am not able to host at my own house since my own cat prefers her own space. I have plenty of experience with taking care of dogs and meeting individual needs. I grew up with a golden retriever, Quincy, who had epilepsy. Some of my earliest memories are of taking care of him. While at away at college, I took care of two lovely dogs, Rosie and Rico. My responsibilities while watching them include feeding, walks, and administering medication, as both have a thyroid condition. Rosie is a senior dog and Rico is dog-aggressive so I have had to learn how to meet their specific needs. I'm extremely patient and a fast learner, and I would love to get to know your pup! I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday, making my schedule very flexible. I am available most weekend, and am willing to walk or drive to you! While caring for your pet in your home, I will be sure to follow any and all safety measures necessary i.e. ensuring gates/doors are shut, keeping dangerous foods out of reach, and making sure any play is done safely to protect both your pet and your home.
“Alissa was so great with walking my dog: communicative, responsible, and got along amazingly with him! It was my first time traveling and leaving him behind, and she sent very detailed updates and photos. Thanks again!”

“Samantha is always so caring and attentive with Nala! 🐶💕 She was also very helpful always changing her pee pad and cleaning up Nala’s messes. I really appreciated her help and kindness. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”

About: Hi everyone! My name is Maddie. I’ve been around my dogs my whole life and I’ve been taking care of dogs since middle school. I had a Portuguese Water Dog growing up, and have always loved volunteering to walk and spend nights with my neighbors’ dogs, as well. In college, I walked dogs for professors and people living in town. I would love nothing more than to help you out with your dog :). I’m responsive and organized, and typically have no issue picking up last-minute requests! I’m working a hybrid clinical research job that has fairly flexible hours, and I love breaking my day up with some fun dog time :). For walks and drop-ins, I will be sure to understand any particular details ahead of time to ensure your dog’s safety. As an athlete, I have no trouble with strong dogs on the leash.
About: **ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS! Please reach out! Note: I do not care for multiple pets at once.** Hi! I’m Abby. I enjoy helping others, I love animals and being outside. Missing the snuggles of my dog back home brought me to Rover. I have experience with house sitting, dog sitting, babysitting and house cleaning and have met many amazing clients through Rover. I believe in building trustworthy and reliable relationships, so know you can count on me! Preference to the surrounding Inman Sq/Central Sq/Harvard Sq area. I work from home most days and have a very flexible schedule, so I am happy to adapt to your needs however I can, whether it’s walks, drop ins or overnight sitting. I love going for walks! I do not have any pets at home. My yard has plenty of space and I live in a neighborhood with dog friendly spaces nearby. If I come to you, I am happy to take your animal’s favorite route or explore new areas nearby.
“Leilani is a wonderful dogwalker. When she came for a meet and greet, Junie liked her right away. Leilani listened carefully to all instructions and was warm and friendly. She walked Junie three times in two days, sending pics and updates each time. She seemed to enjoy her time with Junie, and made sure to give Blue some love too while she was here. I will absolutely request Leilani to care for Junie and Blue in the future.”

“Anna was so good to my puppy, Jelly Bean. She offered to come over the day before her first visit to get acquainted with Jelly Bean and what she would be doing on her visit. Anna was extremely kind, patient and flexible - I could not have asked for a better introduction to Rover and dog walking, in general.”


About: I’ve always had cats and dogs in my own home, and been honored by the trust of my neighbors and friends to care for their pets. Whether they are a kitten, puppy, or elderly floof, I feel confident giving them personalized care that leaves owners feeling relieved and pets feeling happy. I am available for drop-ins or dog walks on Mondays, Thursdays, and weekends. I can do overnights any time with enough notice. I work from home on Mondays and Thursdays and would be happy to spend lots of the day with your pet! I will meticulously follow whatever instructions you leave, keeping security, safety, and privacy at the top of my mind. I’m not the kind of sitter who just throws some food in a bowl and leaves— I’m there to genuinely keep the cuties company for as long as they’ll have me!
About: Not being able to take them with you can be tough. It would be my pleasure to spend time with your pet and make sure their necessities are met while ensuring they have the attention they need, be it direct playtime, body-doubling (they just need a presence around for a bit), grooming, medications, etc. If this sounds good to you, lets talk! I currently have an open schedule while looking for my next full time opportunity. Happy to adjust my schedule to your needs on a case by case basis - lets talk about what would work for you. While I am unable to pet-sit in my home at this time, I would adapt my care to your specifications and would be happy to send update pictures upon request. Playful or shy, grumpy or ragdoll I am glad for each animal I can interact with and hope to brighten their day while you're away.

Owen came through for me when I (with very little notice) needed someone to take care of my dog when my trip was delayed 12 hours. Owen was flexible, working out a schedule to best benefit Ash. Ash has some anxiety and lunging/pulling tendencies, and Owen handled this with patience and experience. Owen even dropped by a day earlier for a meet up with Ash which alleviated the stranger anxiety. Owen is clearly an animal lover, and definitely understood how to handle my big reactive doggy! Bottom line, I was thoroughly at ease knowing Ash was in excellent, professional and loving hands. Being an over-protective dog mama with a reactive and anxious rescue doggy, this speaks volumes!!! Owen was quick to respond to all my questions, making the booking super easy. It’s reassuring to receive such quick responses and he answered all my questions thoroughly and patiently. I will, without question, hire Owen every time I need help with Ash. I can’t thank him enough for coming through for me! (And he even sent some great travel suggestions too!) Thank you Owen!!

Irene did a fantastic walk with our dog. He can be very stubborn with new walkers, but Irene managed to coax and charm him into a full walk. We loved how excited our dog was when he saw Irene; dogs always know good people! We look forward to more walks with Irene, she is a true pro!

Samhita was super, super sweet. Very gentle with Arrow and brought him on a good size walk. She was kind, considerate and was willing to take on the last minute appointment with an empathetic kindness. So happy to have had her met Arrow, and happy to have met her myself. I look forward to having her with Arrow again in the future.
