House Sitting Cambridgeport

“Darby was really, really great house sitting for us and watching our pup Milah!! She sent pictures multiple times through the day, made sure Milah had enough activity, followed the care/feeding schedule well, and in general just made us feel good about stealing away for the weekend and leaving our pup at home. Would definitely use Darby again!”

“Anna took wonderful care of our puppy Semmie while we were away. She was clearly attentive and gentle with her. Semmie was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the whole time. Anna also communicated really well throughout, and she even took the initiative to come by beforehand to meet Semmie and get to know her before the sit started, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s obvious Anna genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. We felt completely at ease knowing Semmie was in such good hands, and we’ll definitely be booking Anna again for future pet sitting!”

About: I worked at a humane society and worked with many dogs of all sizes and breeds. Helped to socialize them; took them for walks/hikes, went for car rides, got them comfortable being outdoors. I also dog sat for friends and family throughout the years. Very comfortable with giving medications and taking care of special needs dogs (grew up with a dog that required seizure medication and had frequent seizures). As a college student I have a fairly flexible schedule. My weekends are completely free and I have more than a couple hours free during the weekday in the mornings and evenings (as well as some time during the middle of the day if I’m not in class). I grew up in a home where dogs were family members. We were very comfortable with them being indoor and outdoor pets. We would go for hikes, walks/runs (was fairly active to help the dogs release their energy) and would also relax together indoors. Will crate as needed for dog and family comfort or will just hang out on a sofa and read a book for company for the pet. Since I’m used to caring for a high maintenance dog that required special attention, I can clean up accidents and administer medications if needed (with lots of approved treats)

“Ria did a wonderful job taking care of our dog for a week. A lot of updates and Alfred seemed very happy when we got back home. Would book again!”

“We’ve booked with Laine several times now and she is so great with our hyper Australian Shepherd! Very communicative with us and keeps us at ease while we are traveling.”

“Jess was the best Dogsitter I’ve ever had the luck of booking. She was available pretty last minute, was super responsive and available every time I asked her anything. She took fantastic care of my two big dogs while I was off for the weekend getting married! Jess managed everything on her own, she tired them out every day and patiently fed them even though Kayla’s a picky eater. Throughout I was too busy to pay attention to our chats but she still sent all kinds of pictures and updates. Really couldn’t recommend Jess more!!!”

About: While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for pets. I’ve had two cats for the past 4 years and have pet sat for friends and family when they’ve needed help. I’m reliable, responsible, and happy to follow whatever routine and instructions help you and your pet feel most comfortable. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax while you’re away. I work full-time (6am-2pm) as a scientist, so I’m generally available for afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. My schedule can be flexible though to accommodate for early morning visits. I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they need before accepting a booking. I use Rover myself so I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully, keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable until you’re back. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing.

“Spencer was a godsend! He house sat my anxious, reactive dog Java for 4 days while I was on vacation. He was punctual and incredibly flexible. He sent regular updates, followed my care instructions perfectly, was patient as my dog warmed up to him. I would call Spencer again for any future sitting needs!”

“Alice is a wonderful puppy sitter and took great care of our golden puppy. There was exceptional communication throughout the entire process, she was very kind and accommodating, and we knew our pup was in good hands with her. We would love to work with her again in future and would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

Abigail D.

“My cats loved Maddie! She did a great job of sending us updates and taking care of them when we were out on vacation. They are typically very shy but they warmed up to her very easily. She maintained our place really well in our absence.”

Samata K.

“Natalia did an amazing job house sitting with our dog!! She communicated with us the whole time while sending plenty of pictures and videos! Our dog was anxious when we first left and she calmed her down and they became best friends quickly. I already booked her again for our next trip!”

Nakita S.

“Lelani is amazing and went beyond our expectations to love on Cash! She sends the most amazing updates with photos and loved ones our boy so much. It made having to be away so much easier. She left our place spotless, which was a surprising plus.”

Kelley D.

“Eveline saved us with a last minute booking before New Year’s Eve! We were relieved she could help us out again on short notice, as we really enjoyed the experience of working with her (per the other review!)”

Jeff F.

“Brianna watched my dog Charlie this week for the second time, and she did an outstanding job! Brianna is highly reliable, communicative, and responsible, and left my apartment very clean. I give her my highest recommendation!”

Daniel G.

“Bethany was great with our pup who just loves her! She stayed in our home and took excellent care of the dog and the house. Thank you, Bethany!”

Sara W.

“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.”

Jennifer G.

“We had a fantastic experience with Nicole! She was incredibly communicative from start to finish — always quick to respond and kept us updated with regular photos and messages. Nicole was punctual, reliable, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. Our pup instantly warmed up to her, and it was clear they were in great hands the whole time. She went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and we came home to a happy, relaxed dog. It was such a relief knowing our pet was being cared for by someone so friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. We’d absolutely book with Nicole again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter”

About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was born and cats all throughout college - animals have always been part of my life, but now that I live alone in Boston, it’s a bit expensive to raise an animal. I babysit for friends’ dogs and cats all the time but am really looking forward to more constant companionship! Training has always been really easy for me and I’m very much looking forward to playing with or welcoming your cat or dog, of any size, shape, or age. They will all be spoiled as much as you allow. My home is heated with mini-splits and has hardwood floors, so any accidents can be undone easily :) I have a fenced-in yard that is shared occasionally with the upstairs doggie. I run a startup so I can come home on a flexible schedule determined by your dog or cat - and am home 70% of the time on weekends, ready to be out and about entertaining your pet on a walk or chilled at home with a book and cooking. No loud noises, fast traffic, or children to worry about in my home! If I am in your home, I will do exactly as you request and avoid any disruptions to your pet’s routine or comfort levels. If you trust your dog or cat to me in my home, I’ll do my best to replicate as much of their environment as possible and make sure they don’t miss you TOO much!

“Claudia was wonderful with our Luna girl. She communicated frequently with photos and clearly loved our baby! Highly, highly recommend and hope to have her stay with Luna again!”

“Aaron spent an evening with our labradoodle when we visited the area from out of town. Aaron and the dog got along great and went on a long walk. We would definitely book Aaron again if we need dog sitting again in the area.”
