“Y Tran has taken care of Kiko many times, and I always feel completely at peace leaving him with her. She truly loves Kiko, and it shows in the way she cares for him. She constantly sends me tons of pictures and updates, which makes me feel very reassured and connected while I’m away. She takes Kiko on many walks, gives him lots of attention, and he always looks so happy with her. What I appreciate most is that she does everything with genuine love and care, and it’s very noticeable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive for their pet.”


“Jim was super accommodating for my last minute request. He and his sons were so sweet with Mowgli, and even made him a little fort. His location is extremely close to South Station and easy to get to”

“Natalia took such great care of my dog Jack!! She was a great communicator, sent multiple pictures and updates throughout the day, this made me feel completely at ease while I was at work. Jack was so happy, and I knew he was in great hands. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’m Victoria and I am a full time dog sitter. I have a dog of my own! She is a chihuahua-dachshund mix and her name is Lila! I have dog sat for family and friends and wanted to bring my love for animals on to Rover! Because I am always home, your dog will not be left alone for long extended periods of time. I will be able to provide consistent care and plenty of attention! I live an apartment that is extremely dog friendly! It is conveniently located 5 mins walking distance from dog parks and other green areas for your pup.
About: A lot of my experience comes from caring for my girlfriend's two dogs, who are basically my two best friends—a Japanese Chin and a Lhasa-Poo. Whenever her parents are out of town, I'm usually the one taking care of them. We've even watched them for weeks at a time while their family was traveling, so I'm comfortable with everything from feeding and walks to playtime, keeping them on their routine, and making sure they get plenty of attention. I've also known our Lhasa-Poo since she was a puppy. When she first came home, my girlfriend and I spent that entire first week with her, helping her adjust to a new environment, keeping her company at night, and making sure she felt safe and comfortable. More than anything, I'm just a huge dog lover. Whenever I go back home to India, I spend a lot of my time hanging out with the neighborhood stray dogs. They've become part of my visits home. I know every dog is different, and my goal is always to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I'll care for your dog the same way I care for the dogs in my own life: with lots of attention, affection, and plenty of updates so you know they're doing well. I work from home, so I'm around throughout the day and have a very flexible schedule. That means I can take dogs out for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and make sure they're never left alone for long. I love staying active, so I'm always happy to fit in extra walks or outdoor time if your pup enjoys it. I also welcome boarding on most weekends, unless I'm out of town, which isn't very often. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, gets plenty of attention, and sticks to their normal routine while you're away. I live in a very dog-friendly apartment, and I'm very used to sharing my space with dogs. I help care for my girlfriend's two pups regularly, so having dogs around the house is something I'm completely comfortable with. In my home, dogs are welcome to roam freely and make themselves at home—they're welcome on the couch and in any room unless you have different rules you'd like me to follow. I know every dog has their own routine, so I'm happy to stick to whatever they're used to, whether that's crate training, scheduled feeding times, or specific walking routines. Once again, my goal is to make your dog feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you're away.
“Our pup was in a daycare with Tiffany and Steve for a little less than 6 hours, and he seemed to have had a very comfortable time with them. Tiffany and Steve were very prompt with their responses, sent us a lot of updates and pictures even in the few hours he was with them, and a detailed rover card at the end of the stay. As first time clients of theirs, they showed us the entire space where they stay with the dogs and the other dogs our pup would be playing with during his visit. They also were super flexible about his pick up and drop off times and were very eager to keep to our pup's daily schedule and meal times. I would happily board my dog with Tiffany and Steve again! Thanks guys :)”

“Anastasia was amazing!! Visiting Boston for my bday Nervous to leave our puppy but she was so incredible with Bella and sent us updates all day! Thank you!”

About: Since childhood dogs have been a big part of life. From my big loaf of a mutt growing up, to helping my aunts with their pair of border collies I'm always learning more ways to connect with pets . I live in large loft with lots of space to run and play. Located in Downtown Boston; minutes away from the Greenway, Commons, and Harborwalk. Available for boarding, sitting walks and drop-ins. I have years of experience with big dogs, puppies and elderly pooches. I offer structured walks. These aren't just quick bathroom breaks. I provide focused, active walks tailored to your dog's energy level. For high-energy or larger breeds, this includes paced exercise to ensure they get a thorough workout; for seniors or smaller dogs, we take a gentler, scent-driven approach to keep them mentally stimulated without overexertion. I work entirely from home and within the immediate local neighborhood. This setup grants me excellent scheduling fluidity, allowing me to accommodate midday requests, early morning routines, or late-evening check-ins with ease. When your pet is in my care, they receive structured, high-quality attention. Because my day is entirely organized around pet safety and lifestyle needs, I am highly reliable, prompt, and capable of spending extended, quality time keeping your dog company. Taking care of furry friends has turned from my favorite hobby to my 9-5 (sometime 24/7 lol). Available for last minute booking. Just ask! I am very experienced with high energy breeds. Boredom can lead to stress, so I incorporate interactive play, puzzle toys, and basic command reinforcement into our time together to keep their minds sharp and focused. I have a well provisioned toychest to keep your pooch engaged and active as well as a lifetime worth of tips and tricksk up my proverbial sleeves. Centrally located for convenient dropoff/pickup near Logan Airport. Multiple dog parks within walking distance. Stay-at home full time attention for your pet.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life. I grew up beside them and learned how to care for them at a very early age. I have experience with many different breeds, sizes, personalities, ages; from dogs who were my family, from my friend’s dogs to dogs belonging to people in my local community. Since I’ve been living in Boston for almost a year now, I have scouted out great routes to walk dogs to local spots for play and enjoyment, especially in nature. Special skills include dog breed knowledge, basic commands training, clicker training, animal welfare, and basic wilderness first aid training. I work from home 70% of the time and my schedule is wonderfully quite flexible. I am able to meet basic needs like potty breaks or walks and easily adjust my routine around the dog’s needs. I have worked with many different dog personalities and characteristics before and can take care of your dog however needed. I allow dogs on the bed and couch, have plenty of treats on hand, have many pet friendly locations nearby to take them, etc.
“She is an amazing sitter! She gave frequent updates throughout the day, and really appreciated that she went above and beyond by sending a lot of pictures. Also, I really appreciate her flexibility. If you’re in Boston, highly recommend her as your pet sitter. Go Greta (and Juniper)! 🫶✨”

“Emily is so sweet and Evie absolutely loved her! She can be a little skittish and she was immediately at peace with Emily and their sweet dog Auggie. Emily communicated so well and went above and beyond to make the day smooth. I really appreciated it!”

“A truly 5 star experience. Cameron was easy to communicate with and work with. Just off vibe alone I knew my dog was in good hands when he was picked up. Throughout the day I was consistently updated with photos and videos of my dog out and about. I highly highly recommend Cameron to anyone in need of a dog-sitter. Next time I’m in Boston I will 100% be reaching out to him first. Finn will miss Cameron and Rosie a ton!!! 5 stars!!”

“Karina and her puppy Luca were amazing puppy sitting my 4 month old doxie named Winston. I got updates throughout the day with photos and comments. I think Winston may have also learned some manners from Luca. Will definitely be coming back!”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and having my own dog since I was 12 made them a big part of my life growing up. Being away from home for college means I really miss my dog, which is one of the reasons I enjoy dog-sitting so much, it lets me spend time caring for and bonding with dogs while giving them the attention they deserve. Over the past three years in Boston, I’ve regularly dog-sat for friends and families who trust me because I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on maintaining each dog’s routine and comfort. I’m currently a senior in college with classes mainly in the mornings, so I’m home and available for most of the day. This schedule allows me to prioritize pet care, stick to routines, and provide consistent supervision and attention. When dogs stay with me, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by following their usual schedule as closely as possible. Dogs are never left alone for more than four hours, and I send daily updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away. My apartment also has a dog park amenity, which makes potty breaks and outdoor time easy, safe, and convenient

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life, growing up with all kinds of dogs, from bulldogs to german shepherds. I’m good with high and low energy dogs of all sizes, supplying pets, walks, and treats to make your pups forget how much they miss you! I’m especially experienced with senior dogs and the extra care they require, especially those with limited mobility. Because I work from home your pups will rarely be alone, which helps me stay on top of potty breaks, playtime, and any other needs your pets have! Because I work from home, I am able to take close care of your furry friends. I do like to go to the gym in the morning for about an hour, but am usually in one spot for the rest of the day so your pets won’t be alone and can have all their needs met. I’m happy to take breaks to walk/play. I am very respectful and comfortable in new environments and am happy to work with you and your pet’s needs. I’ve mostly pet-sat in other peoples homes in my hometown, so I am very used to following the guidelines you are comfortable with. I am easily reachable and responsive, and like to send check in photos at your convenience!

Indrajeet was a lifesaver on the day that I needed puppy care for my 11 week old German shorthaired pointer! I last minute requested his help and his response was immediate as well as very kind. He seemed like a natural caretaker and had a good sense of what my puppy’s needs were throughout the day. His communication was also excellent with frequent updates every couple of hours so that I felt very confident with his care. I also felt like he gave my puppy adequate mental stimulation throughout the day by going on walks, playing, engaging him so that my puppy wasn’t misbehaved or hyper coming home but the exact temperament as he would be if he spent a day with me. I would be so happy if Indrajeet would look after Kuma again 🥹🫶🏼!!

Wonderful. Did daycare for a day for our aussie border collie mix for the afternoon and evening and she took him to the park and on walks and gave us updates. Accommodated our weird timing and made it really easy for us. Would 100% book again. Thank you so much!

Upasna Aunty is truly the best. From day one, she’s made me feel completely comfortable leaving my Gemeni with her, and that peace of mind is priceless. She’s so caring, patient, and present, and you can tell she genuinely loves every dog she looks after. I absolutely love getting updates throughout the day—it makes me feel like I’m still a part of Gemeni’s day even when I’m away. She’s always quick to communicate, flexible with timings, and goes out of her way to make things easy. The biggest sign for me is how excited Gemeni gets when she sees her. She runs in without looking back, and that tells me everything I need to know. I never have to wonder if ahe’s being cared for or loved because I know he is. It’s such a relief to have someone I trust so much with her, and I’m incredibly grateful we found her.
