“Outstanding! We felt completely at ease from the moment we met Zwany. She's someone both pets and people feel totally comfortable around. She and Leandro are detail-oriented, thorough, communicative, responsive, and kind- everything and more you'd want people looking after your pets to be. They go above and beyond- I would highly recommend them to others and we would definitely bring our dog back.”

“Tyler and his gf are really responsible and nice. Meimei and Jackson had a really good time. I think they miss Tyler and his gf already. We will definitely chose Tyler again!!”

“John did an amazing job watching my dog LD! He took care of her for 9 nights 10 days while we were on vacation. He provided daily updates and I never worried or wondered what she was up to. My dog has separation anxiety and blues and John dealt with it by adjusting to what she was comfortable with regarding feeding schedule and going outside. He is a very trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you again John!”

“Victoria did such a wonderful job watching Archie!! She had great communication the entire time and went above and beyond! I definitely recommend her and look forward to using her again! Thank you! ?”
“Ozzi had a great time with their family. We loved to see the pictures of all the snuggling. Highly recommend them and Ozzi is looking forward to his next visit!”

“The best experience I have ever had with a sitter! Christina was extremely flexible and communicative! She provided photos of our pup having the best time all weekend and frankly our dog was less than impressed with us when we picked her up. Will definitely be booking her again.”


“Kimberly and Brian were wonderful! They took sent lots of updates and pictures of my pup and took great care of him. With a senior dog who has to take medication morning and night, it was a relief to have him in such good friends. And he and their dog, Lola, became buds by the end of it. Would absolutely recommend them!”

“Julie was amazing, it’s no wonder she has star sitter status! I always get nervous leaving my dog with new people, but she sent lots of pictures and updates about how he was doing. Seymour came home so content and relaxed!”

“Wonderful experience. Sarah took in our two pups on a last minute booking for the weekend, made sure she had all the details about their care, and sent pictures of how well they were doing. We were confident they were in good hands.”

“I’ve had Rachel watch my dog a couple times and she always does an excellent job. She sends lots of pictures and mazie comes back tired! I’d recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her in the future.”

“Jessica and her family were amazing! They took wonderful care of our dogs. I’m definitely using her again! We received pics daily and she is awesome with communication. Thanks again!!”

“Megan was wonderful throughout the entire process. We got picture updates every day and he was absolutely loving all the walks and cuddles. Absolutely would recommend.”

“Emily was wonderful with our little schnoodle Theo! We had forgotten to book a sitter when heading out of town for the weekend and Emily was very welcoming and flexible with scheduling the last minute booking. She took great care of Theo and was very accommodating of our unpredictable timing driving back through traffic ti get home to Boston. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again in the future!”

“Just moved to the area and he was great ! Great communication and sent pictures everyday ! Took care of my pup and he was happy and healthy when we received him! Would book again!”


“Brooklyn watched our Sydney for a quick overnight. She was very kind and responsive. Very accommodating of our pup's schedule and needs. We felt very at ease knowing she was in good hands”

“Leah was absolutely incredible, and I couldn't have asked for a better first boarding experience for my puppy, Luna. As a first-time puppy parent being away for several days, I was naturally a little nervous, but Leah went above and beyond to make sure Luna felt comfortable, safe, and happy every step of the way. Leah was incredibly caring, thoughtful, and attentive to Luna's needs. Not only did she take her on neighborhood walks, but she also arranged fun outings where Luna got to socialize with other people and dogs, which she absolutely loved. Leah sent multiple updates and photos every day, so I always knew how Luna was doing, and her communication was consistently prompt and reassuring. The entire experience was seamless from start to finish, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing Luna was in such wonderful hands. I would book with Leah again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet like their own.”

“Rachel was an exceptional dog sitter. My dog LOVED staying with her and was very happy when I returned home. Rachel kept in constant contact during my trip and sent lots of pictures! I highly recommend her to anyone who has a dog that they love!”

“Miranda was so wonderful with Charlie! She sent me so many cute photos and videos while I was away and I could tell he was having the time of his life! Would recommend her in a heartbeat!”

Phillipa is superb. She was very understanding and accommodating in dealing with my dog Leo's separation anxiety. Leo obviously adores her, and from the photos she sent, was very comfortable in her lovely home. He loves walking on the Commonwealth Mall and got a lot of exercise doing that while I was away. Consider yourself lucky if she has an opening when you need to go away.

Julie was wonderful with Latte! She took great care of her and kept me updated with messages and photos. She was also very understanding and flexible when I had an unexpected delay with pickup. I felt very comfortable leaving Latte with her and would definitely book with Julie again. Thank you so much! 😊

Tyler was great! He was very communicative and sent pictures every day throughout boarding. He answered every question I had promptly about my dog's first boarding experience. He started things off with a really great meet and greet to walk through his and his wife's process, where they walk the dogs, and everything they do to help the dogs feel welcome and get along with each other. We're excited to board her there again in the future!

Xavier was great with our am staff Daisy! He was very flexible and accommodating when our schedules ran later than expected and was super open with communication. He regularly sent updates and pics of our 12yo pup and took great care of her. I definitely recommend him for anyone looking!!

Lauren watched my Ree for a long weekend & I cannot recommend her enough!! She was thorough, caring, & reassuring. I received pictures with updates each day & was completely comfortable & at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!! I rated five stars, but she deserves a 10/10!

I had such a great experience with her! They took wonderful care of my dog for two days and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of when I picked him up. I really appreciate the love and attention they gave him and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter! 🐶❤️

Emma was absolutely fantastic! I had to book her last minute for our dog oakley due to something coming up, and she was so accommodating and wonderful with him. She was so prompt w her responses, sent regular updates and photos, even got him a toy, and I could tell he was in such great hands. I’ll definitely be using her again!

Peter and Jessica took such great care of Ruby. They invited us over beforehand for a quick meet&great, on their own time, to make sure she would be comfortable being dropped off the next day. They are very communicative and easy to reach and sent multiple picture updates each day. This was my first time using Rover in Boston and they made it seamless and stress free. Would highly recommend!

Melis was amazing with Lucy, she were looking so happy in the pictures she sent to me, she keep me updated all the time about how was Lucy doing, they brought her to nice walks in different places and for dinners too! She was all the time with her, really appreciate all the caring she had, I highly recommend Ceyla and Melis. Thank you so much 😊
