Jenin is a wonderful caregiver! She patiently connected with my shy cat and got along with him really well. She’s incredibly considerate and managed everything smoothly - even while she was very sick.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple types of pets through sitting and working at a petting zoo. I am an animal lover myself who is excited to interact with your pet and give them the love and care they need! I’m currently doing school at nights twice a week so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. Available any day as needed! I am able to spend time with your pet while being respectful of your space, knowing that animals thrive in an environment they are used to.

About: I've always had a dog growing up, lived with cats for many years, and have been house sitting for four years in many states across the US! I don't have any pets, children, plants, etc. to take care of that are my own - so very available for other peoples pets! Outside of pet sitting, I am a Clinical Psychology PhD Student at Suffolk University. I have class all day Monday, but am flexible Tuesday through Friday. In the clients home, I always respect the space and am sure to leave the space cleaner than I found it, but open to client preferences with what to clean versus leave be 😊

About: Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I have experience caring for dogs and other pets belonging to family and friends. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m currently a full-time college student, but I have days off throughout the week, so I’m able to dog sit. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep their space clean, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and have always had a huge heart for them. My grandpa was a veterinarian, so growing up I had the opportunity to help him care for animals and became comfortable around pets with all different personalities and needs. I also have a mini Goldendoodle of my own who I truly treat like my little kid! 🐾 I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll always treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I recently finished my master’s degree at Northeastern University and am currently doing remote work while looking for my next full-time position, so my schedule is very open and flexible! I’m home most days and have plenty of availability throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, and spending time with your pets. I’m also flexible with timing and happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. I’ll always treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow any instructions you leave, keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they’re comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you know your pet is happy and being well taken care of!

Macy was absolutely wonderful with our 12-year-old Shih Tzu, Charlie. Caring for a senior dog comes with its own considerations, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Charlie was in her care. She was attentive, dependable, communicative, and treated him with genuine kindness throughout his stay. It was clear that Charlie was comfortable with her and very well cared for, which meant a great deal to us. We would unequivocally recommend Macy to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pup, especially those with an older dog. We would happily have Charlie stay with her again.

First time I've used Rover or a non-friend pet-sitter in general and couldn't have asked for a better caretaker than Miliana! She was prompt with her check-ins and thorough with her photos. I could tell she was giving my cat plenty of attention. When I got home from my trip my cat didn't seem stressed at all.

About: Hi! I grew up with dogs & cats throughout my childhood and then got a dog of my own during COVID. Due to a breakup, I no longer have my dog & have been chasing to get puppy snuggles wherever possible. I have dog sat for friends and family countless time. I also volunteer occasionally at the Animal Rescue League of NH & also am looking forward to find a MA organization, now that I live down in MA! I work full time with 2 days in the office. The other 3 weekdays, I work fully remote & am flexible! If you live close by, I can stop by to let your dog out, take them for a walk or just give them some love for a bit. And of course, I’d love to stay at your home if needed (and could even work remotely from there if you’re okay with that!) I’m happy to accommodate to whatever you need in your own home! Since I don’t own my current place & have a dog living here currently, I am only offering services outside of my house. This will include- dog walking & in house visits/stays for cats & dogs. However, that means you get to tell me where everything is & we don’t need to take your perfect dog/cat out of their safe space. 🤍

Sylvia did a very good job stopping by to feed and give medication to my cat Grace while I was away for the Labor Day weekend. She came on schedule and let me know she was there both with a notification/message and a cute picture of Grace. I really appreciate Sylvia’s excellent communication and her reliability. I would definitely use her again to care for Grace!

We are very happy Cat was able to look over our cat during a long weekend. From the start she was very attentive and made sure to understand our cats needs. She was exactly on time and even made sure to help clean up our robot vacuum when it got tangled on some wires while we were away. Thanks Cat!

Steve was wonderful with Pepper while we were away for three days! He checked everything we asked, kept us updated, and sent photos with every visit. Pepper is usually very shy, but he really liked Steve and seemed very comfortable with him. We would definitely book with Steve again!

Really appreciated Piper's detailed messages about each visit to check on my two cats. My pets are both older and on the higher maintenance side, with one needing daily medication and the other being more sensitive to changes in diet and a pickier eater in general. Piper didn't have a problem accomodating this at all.

Cidra has been great! Very responsive and communicative - we have booked with Cidra twice now, and would definitely again. One of our cats is very skittish so we were really impressed that Cidra was able to get him to come out from his hiding spot under the couch. We're happy that both our cats feel friendly towards Cidra
