“Jing is awesome with our three dogs! I was really reluctant to let a stranger come into our house but she is always so respectful and trustworthy with our four legged friends! They get excited when she comes through the door 😂 definitely hire her!”

About: Growing up, my grandmother fostered litters of puppies and their moms until they were old enough to be adopted. I spent a lot of time volunteering alongside her and learned how to train puppies. While I'm not a professional, I do understand the mechanics of positive enforcement. I had a boxer who will be 2 years old this February and have trained him to walk nicely on a leash as well as other commands. I also have two cats, Cho'gath and Jorah. I'm currently working part-time Wednesday-Fridays until 4 pm. Anytime outside of that I'm available! I sometimes have to work Saturdays, but would be off at 12. In my current home, there is no back yard. My place had 4 cats living in it right now, two of which are my roommates. At home boarding might be difficult here, but I'm happy to come to you.

About: Before pursuing my career in elementary education as a special education paraprofessional, I spent three years working at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I gained extensive hands-on experience managing groups of dogs, reading body language, and ensuring a safe, fun environment. I also spent time working as a veterinary assistant, gaining valuable skills in gentle handling, restraint, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or illness. Additionally, I have been a devoted cat mom for over 20 years and have provided reliable pet sitting for family and friends' cats and dogs for the past decade. Why Pet Parents Trust Me: - Professional Animal Handling Background: My time in both a boarding facility and a veterinary clinic means I know how to safely handle pets of all temperaments and ensure they feel safe, happy, and secure. - Medication & Special Care: I am experienced and confident administering oral and topical medications, supplements, and following precise health routines for senior pets or those with special needs. - Special Education Paraprofessional Background: My career in education brings an exceptional level of patience, structure, and attentive care to every visit. I treat every animal with individual attention and consistent care. - Lover of All Ages & Species: From energetic puppies and playful dogs to gentle seniors and timid cats, I have years of personal and professional experience catering to pets at every stage of life. My workday finishes around 2:30 PM. This schedule gives me reliable, consistent availability for late afternoon, evening, and weekend drop-in visits. On Thursdays, I teach dance in the late afternoon, so my availability starts after 4:00 PM. Whether your pet needs an afternoon check-in, an evening meal and play session, or weekend care while you are away, my set schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to keeping your pets happy, safe, and right on routine! When visiting your home, your pet's safety and the security of your property are my top priorities: - Secure Entrances & Exits: I am extremely mindful of doors, gates, and windows during visits to ensure pets never have an opportunity to slip outside unexpectedly. - Home Respect & Security: I treat your home with total care and privacy, always making sure doors are double-checked and locked upon leaving. - Continuous Updates & Communication: You will receive detailed visit reports and photos after every drop-in, so you always know how your pet is doing, when they were fed, and that everything went smoothly. Tailored & Attentive Pet Care: - Routine & Consistency: I carefully follow your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, medication timing, and exercise to keep your pet’s routine completely undisturbed. - Personalized Attention & Stress Reduction: Whether your pet loves high-energy playtime or just wants gentle, quiet cuddles on the couch, I meet every pet where they're at, adjusting to their personality and comfort zone. - Proactive Health & Behavior Awareness: With my background in dog boarding and veterinary assistant work, I continuously monitor body language and health to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.
About: I have hands-on experience handling and caring for animals through volunteer work at an animal shelter, employment in multiple animal hospitals, and caring for my own pets. My experience includes safely interacting with animals of various temperaments, supporting their daily care, and maintaining their health and well-being in both clinical and home environments. What sets me apart is my combination of professional experience, hands-on care, and genuine love for animals. This experience has given me the knowledge to recognize pets’ needs and provide calm, compassionate care. I have even had the pleasure of caring for senior dogs and understand the extra patience, comfort, and attention they require. I’ve also done some basic dog training and enjoy reinforcing good behaviors with positive encouragement. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, and typically have open availability, allowing me to provide plenty of walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I live down the street from a dog park too, so pets can socialize during their time with me as well. I love spending time outdoors and am very active so any pet in my care will be outdoors as much as possible, unless an owner would prefer I keep them indoors. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. I’m very attentive, compassionate, and patient, making sure each pet receives the care and attention they need. I follow their regular routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, while giving them plenty of affection and positive interaction. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident that their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have a small “Dog Stuff” bin where I keep extras like bags, food, treats, toys, and more so no worries if an owner forgets to pack something.
“Boning is a wonderful cat sitter! She followed all of our instructions perfectly, and our cats adore her. She is very communicative and sends great pictures. We have booked her multiple times and will continue to do so.”

About: I have owned and cared for dogs for over 14 years. I am passionate about animals and want to provide the best love and care for your furry friend. I love taking your dog on walks, playing with their favorite toys, making sure they receive the proper meals, and am comfortable giving medication when needed. I have worked in the healthcare field for 4 years so I feel comfortable following care plans and specific diets. I have experience dog sitting young and old dogs and have dog sat for weeks in a row. I am available 24/7 by text, call or email. I do not mind going on long walks or spending extra time playing with your dog to give them the proper exercise needed to keep them happy!

I have a small dog park in my complex and live close to a few parks for longer walks. Having owned a dog for 15 years I am confident in how to care for a dog in the home.

About: I’ve shared my home with dogs and cats my entire life, rescuing pets of all ages from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Over the years, I’ve learned that every animal has a unique story, and I make it a priority to train every pet I bring into my home. This hands-on experience has taught me a massive amount about patience, adaptability, and animal behavior. More than anything, it has given me a deep sense of compassion and a real knack for connecting with animals. I love bringing that structure and care to their lives, and I'm excited to bring that same dedication to this role. I offer in-home pet care tailored to your pet's exact schedule. I work full-time at a school, I am available for quick drop-ins on weekday evenings. I have open availability on weekends to give your pet all the time and attention they need. I offer personalized in-home pet sitting and drop-in check-ins tailored to your pet's unique needs. Your pet's comfort is my top priority, which is why I strictly follow their established feeding and exercise to maintain their normal routine while you are away.
About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me.

This flexibility allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended care while meeting all of your pets routine needs :) I have a pet-friendly home with a yard for outdoor breaks (no fence, so all outdoor time is fully supervised). I currently have two sweet female Labs and two cats who are friendly and used to being around other pets.

I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have and provide plenty of updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while your pet is in my care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 Even though I have a pretty busy school schedule, I always make room for pets! I spend a lot of time studying, so I love having a furry study buddy nearby to keep me company. I’m happy to take study breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of attention. Having pets around makes my day better, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my routine. I care for every pet based on their normal routine and what makes them feel most comfortable.

About: I have experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, and occasionally reptiles such as lizards. My background includes daily feeding routines, litter box and habitat cleaning, basic care, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

This includes walking, feeding and playing with your dogs, feeding, playing and changing litter for the cats, and making sure they are cared for and comfortable.
“Mike did a great job doting on our very neurotic cat. He managed to slip a pill into her food every morning, and stayed around for a bit so she could get a "second breakfast" afterwards. He even got to pet her occasionally, something only a very select few can say! Fountains were kept filled, cat box was clean, and bowls weren't overflowing with stale, dried up food. Definitely recommend!”

“⸻ I’ve been trusting Abhay with my dog for the past four years, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is incredibly reliable and always punctual, which gives me such peace of mind. One of the things I appreciate most is his excellent communication. After each session, he provides thoughtful updates on how things went, which shows how attentive and engaged he is. On the rare occasion when there’s any uncertainty, he doesn’t hesitate to reach out for clarification, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that he takes both his work and my dog’s well-being seriously. It’s a huge comfort knowing my dog is in such capable and caring hands.”

About: I am a behavioral scientist work in a hybrid model (go to office once a week) that spend a lot time researching about healthy living for my own furry baby and others🫶 I pay great attention to my dog's nutrient so that I cook fresh/organic for him and take him to hiking and dog parks. I would make beef and chicken jerky, cheese and carrot biscuits as treats. I basically moved from an apartment to a house for the sake of my dog. He was a 7-week puppy weighted 3 lb when I met him and now he’s 9 years old and 22lb, happy and healthy and kissed everyday! Now we moved together to New England since I graduated from my PhD program. Dogs love me but I adore them more!! I welcome house sitting for your furry friend 🙌👍 I’m a behavioral scientist for preventive oncology (in human) and I work a hybrid job, which means my schedule is quite flexible and I’d like to give my own dog potty breaks every 3 hours during the day. These breaks are often well deserved mental relief for myself between meetings as well. Love to cuddle, giving our fur babies a lot of love. Now I live in a one-bedroom apartment so the capacity for boarding is limited, but I’d love to visit your pet at your place and if they like car ride, I could definitely offer walks in the woods upon prior discussion and an extra charge
“OMG, Juliette is amazing! She came each day almost to the minute and took care of everything. She kept us updated with pics and videos of our kitties and went above and beyond by doing whatever she could to make each visit perfect! Highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Canton
Jill did a great job taking care of our kitties while we attended our wedding! She gave us the peace of mind we needed. She followed instructions and made sure our cat got his medicine. We felt comfortable with her in our home and will happily trust her again with our cats in the future. Thanks so much!!

Boning took wonderful care of our 4 kitties, including 3 older kitties. All of our cats warmed up to her right away, which is rare for our shy crew. She handled med administration with ease and had excellent communication skills, letting us know exactly what had happened during each visit. We would be very happy to have her take care of our kitties again!

I cannot recommend Jing highly enough! She has been caring for my dogs, Winnie and Jackson, and has been absolutely wonderful. She is reliable, consistent, and always communicates clearly, which gives me complete peace of mind when I’m away. One of my favorite things about her visits are the photos she sends. The photos she takes are incredible. I have honestly saved so many of them because they are just that good! It is obvious that she genuinely cares about the dogs and takes the time to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Winnie and Jackson are always excited to see her, and I know they are in great hands whenever she stops by. She is dependable, thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond. If you are looking for someone who is trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely loves animals, I would wholeheartedly recommend Jing.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
