“Amanda did an excellent job taking care of our reactive dog while we were away for the weekend. She followed all our instructions, communicated very well, and gave Sierra lots of attention and playtime.”


“Stacy was superb! We had a last minute need due to our flight getting cancelled and Stacy was very communicative and flexible during a moment of a lot of stress. My pups were very well taken care of and I got lots of pictures. My house was well taken care of as well. Would definitely book her again in the future.”


“Emily was wonderful with our 10mo puppy, giving him attention and providing enrichment throughout the day, taking him on his midday walk and feeding him lunch. We came home to a happy, wriggly, sleepy puppy. Emily also left the sweetest report card and polaroid shot of Kiwi at the end of the day :)”

“Tam watched our dog for over a week and was wonderfully attentive and communicative. She sent numerous photos and updates each day and also left our house in perfect shape.”

“Marcus was amazing - provided a ton of updates and pictures so we knew our dogs and cat were in good hands. Definitely will book Marcus again when we need someone to stay with the dogs.”

“Alana was wonderful. She was responsive, thoughtful, and reassuring with our initially anxious shepherd cross- overall a great Rover find. We've already booked her for another stay!”

“Amy is just a wonderful dog sitter, she was taking care of our dog, who can be quite demanding emotionally, for almost one week. When Amy came to meet us, our dog was staying next to her the whole time, very comfortable and happy to be petted by her. Amy was sending regular videos showing our dog obviously feeling relaxed and cheerful with her. She is very responsive, communication is very easy. I really cannot imagine a better person to take care of our dog. Thank you so much!”

“Sam was wonderful with my shy, anxious pup. Sam took it slow and Fern really warmed up to her. I got a very detailed report from Sam at the end of the weekend. I came home to a happy pup & a spotless home.”

“Aubrey was great! She saved me when I needed someone last minute. My dog was super happy and got plenty of exercise, and the apartment was left better than I found it. Will use again!”

“Allison was great with our toy golden doodle! Milly loved her. Allison was right on time, was in touch with us, and took great care of Milly. We will definitely call her again!”

“Aaron was great and easy to connect with for a day of watching our big dog. Grateful he was open to a meet and greet first and updated throughout the time he was watching our boy 🐶”

About: I'm usually the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family, so I have experience with animals of all ages and temperaments. Dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish—you name it! And I'm always willing and ready to learn more and find out what works best for every pet. I can petsit anywhere accessible by MBTA! I'm a graduate student beginning in the fall, so I have a flexible schedule this spring and summer. Plenty of time for your pets to get all the care they need! You can trust me to get the job done in a fun, safe, and responsible way! I follow instructions to the letter, am not afraid to ask for clarification, and am very willing to provide as many or as few updates as you would like.
“Mary was great with our 7 month old cockapoo, Brew. He’s full of energy in the morning and she did great taking him on lots of long walks and also spending time hanging out at the house. She also left the house in very very clean/tidy condition which was so nice of her. Would definitely recommend.”

“Jamie is an absolute lifesaver. She watches Maui most days while I’m at work, and I couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with my dog. She’s attentive, patient, and genuinely loves her, which shows in how happy and relaxed Maui is around her. She was even able to cut Mauis nails and brush her teeth which is literally a miracle considering Maui doesn’t allow anyone to do it (including me). Knowing Maui is cared for by someone so responsible and kind gives me total peace of mind. I’m beyond grateful to have her as both a roommate and someone Maui adores.”

“We had Ellie over to watch Beaux in our home for a week. He had a great time with her, we got daily pictures, she was super communicative, and our house looked the same as when we left.”

“Mara did an incredible job watching our dog and kitties over a long weekend. She took great care of all of them and made us feel like our pets and home were in good hands during our vacation.”


“Alinés was an excellent sitter for my eldery babygirl. Her communication was perfectly tailored to our preferences with lots if pictures and updates. She also followed all care and home instructions expertly, including multiple medications. When I got home I could tell my dog was so well cared for and loved, would book again in a heartbeat.”

“Sonny and Eric were incredible in every way! They took such good cares of our girl - we got regular updates and photos and could tell that she was in great hands! Beyond that, Sonny was super communicative and left our apartment cleaner than wet left it - complete with an adorable framed photo of our pup! We could not recommend Sonny more!!”

“Darlyn is reliable, a great communicator, and was very patient with my highly reactive dog. Thanks for working with us, Darlyn! We had some schedule changes because of the snowstorm. Darlyn was flexible and also made sure Pedrito got one last walk before the snow started. Highly recommend!”

Sydney watched my girls for two weeks and had to deal with an unexpected leak in the apartment while I was gone. She was incredibly professional and had a great attitude, and helped mitigate the issue and took great care of my pets. I would highly recommend her as an in-home sitter!

Nicole was a wonderful dog and housesitter when I had a week-long work trip. She communicated a lot and showed up/texted when she said she would. My pup wasn't eating consistently during the week (potentially due to some stress) and Nicole kept me up to date, plus she accommodated my dog as much as needed to make sure she was comfortable while I was gone. Came home to a happy, healthy dog and a tidy home. Will definitely ask Nicole to dogsit again in the future. Thank you!

Omar was truly amazing! We were in a crunch after our original dog sitter did not finalize as expected, and Omar stepped in on short notice without hesitation. He confirmed the dates quickly and even made time to meet our two Rhodesian Ridgebacks for two walks before the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. From the beginning, Omar was prompt, professional, trustworthy, and genuinely eager to meet our dogs. During the stay, he kept their schedule consistent and even took them on extra walks, which I know they absolutely loved. He kept us updated throughout, and we always felt confident that our dogs were safe, secure, and well cared for. Omar is not only a great sitter and walker, but also an overall great person. Our dogs loved him, and we would feel completely comfortable having them stay with him anytime we travel. I think we have officially found our recurring sitter and walker. Highly recommend!

Had a great experience with Anthony, and our two rambunctious beagles took a quick liking to him as well. He was very communicative and offered to meet the dogs beforehand over Zoom (we had been out of the city). He asked great questions both before, during and after the stay. We felt completely at ease with him in our home and taking care of our dogs. Will definitely reach out to Anthony again and would encourage others to do the same!
