“As always, Seamus and Bon went above and beyond to provide great care for Maybelle! We were away for several weeks and needed Seamus to drop off and pick up Maybelle from another sitter due to schedule conflicts. He handled the communication and transfer seamlessly, which set my mind at ease. Seamus sends great daily updates and I always know that Maybelle is extremely well cared for in his home.”
“First time boarding Maru with Tyler and Caroline. They did a great job taking care of her. Very responsive and sending updates to let us know for Maru is doing!”
“Charlie had a great stay with Christina! I was nervous leaving Charlie and Christina sent photos throughout the stay so I could see what she was up to. Charlie had lots of walkies and snuggles and enjoyed her visit.”
“Where do we begin...this was a hard choice when trying to find someone to watch our fur baby for 6 days. He got to know Barb and a visit to her home for a meet and great. Then another visit for half a day. He was in heaven. Barb sent photos throughout the day. He was in a good mood and not anxious at all. Then we left TicTac in her care for 6 days. So many pictures came to us. He definitely has made new friends and was cared for so well. I highly recommend Barb 🌟”
“Peyton took great care of my puppy, Luna while I was away for the weekend. She was very reliable and attentive and I could tell Luna was very happy and content to be in her care. She sent lots of photos and updates which I really appreciated, and I’d definitely recommend Peyton to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Jim always does a great job with our dog. She comes home happy and well exercised. Jim sends us a few videos of our dog either playing in the park or laying on the couch. We trust our dog with Jim W and he came recommended by friends. We will continue to use Jim whenever we need someone to watch our pup”
“Karen did such a wonderful job watching Phoebe. She kept me in the loop the entire time and sent pictures, and Phoebe was genuinely so happy and well taken care of I couldn’t be happier. Amazing job!”
“It was our first time leaving Miss Kiki alone with anyone else overnight and we were a bit worried how she’d react. Well, Victoria put me at ease with a meet/greet a couple of days before to get acquainted. She stayed over for two full nights and during that time I received pics of their walks, bath and just hanging out cuddling etc. I would/will call upon Victoria again - she truly put me at ease. Oh, and Miss Kiki loved her too!”
“Zach was fantastic! He came through for us last minute when our other sitter cancelled last minute. He watched our dog Nugget for the weekend, and was flexible, communicative, easy to work with, and very attentive to our needs and directions. We'll definitely use him again.”
“Vanessa took wonderful care of my dear Clementine. Clementine was very happy in Vanessa's care. I'm very grateful for how well cared for Clementine was with Vanessa!”
“Lady spent another great day with Elliott! She is always so happy when we arrive and clearly enjoys her time there. We are very grateful to be able to leave her in such good hands!”
“Shuhua is very caring and takes good care of my dog. She is responsive and considerate- she always sent the photos of my dog to keep me updated. I recommend her.”
“Isabella was great! She attended to my dog perfectly and was extremely communicative, updating with lots of pictures and videos. I highly recommend and would definitely use her again!”
“Kylie was so wonderful!! She was sent lots of pictures and updates during the stay! She quickly responded to messages and pick up/drop off were a breeze! Our dog came home happy and seemed to miss her new friend! Highly recommend Kylie!”
“Our pup Kepler boarded with Rachel for 2 weeks, and had a blast. He had a wonderful time with her dog Maya, and played with other dogs in the neighbourhood at the dog park every day. We got daily pictures and updates, can't be happier.”
“Haowen was amazing! I was really nervous about leaving my dog with a new person, but I had no reason to worry. They took lots of photos and sent me several updates daily. My dog did have a little accident when she first got there (which she never does 🤦🏼♀️), but Haowen was so understanding about it. I would definitely use this rover again!! Cleo came home super tired, so I’m guessing she had a fun weekend lol”
About: Growing up I was always the go-to for dog sitting in my neighborhood, and in college I’d watch dogs between classes—so caring for pets has always been a part of my routine. Now I’m a year post-grad in Boston and really miss having a furry friend around! I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. For me, this isn’t just a side job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m about a year post-grad and have a pretty flexible schedule! I work from home on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, so I’m around a lot for walks, playtime, and keeping pets company. I love building pet care into my day and making sure they get lots of attention and consistency! I am cautious and attentive to how a dog lives in their own home and will follow whatever instructions necessary. Clear instructions are recommended prior to care.

For two weeks Grace and her boyfriend Dario took wonderful care of my dog! They provided daily updates and photos which I really appreciated. She gets sad and anxious when we are separated and they showed her love and patience. They helped administer medication when she got scared during a thunderstorm. I would 1000% recommend to take care of your pet!
Gil was great! He looked after our 55lb hound mix for a full week. He was super communicative and sent proactive updates and photos throughout, so we were never worried about her. She also clearly had a great time based on how she was when we got her home (and based on all the photos, which showed lots of pets, playtime, and activity). She was happy and healthy and we would definitely book with Gil again in the future!
I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Being on a 24-hour shift at the firehouse can be stressful, but Karina put my mind completely at ease. She was an excellent communicator, sent great photo updates, and checked in regularly. I was especially impressed that she successfully fed my picky eater. I highly recommend her and will definitely book again.
It was Mochi's first time with Mengzhen. There was another dog staying with her at the same time. We were weary of the breed but Mengzhen eased our concerns and kept them apart. She also kept us updated with several pictures and videos, which is always greatly appreciated. She and Alex were great Would highly recommend.
Lailoo was so great with our 2 year old puppy Harry. It was so nice getting updates throughout the day along with pictures to see what they were up to and how he was doing with her. Bathroom and feeding updates were great for us too so we know his state when we get home! She played with him and walked him and made sure he was hydrated in this heat wave! I completely trust her with any future dog sits!
Josiah and Arlene were AMAZING!! So glad to have found them. They were so sweet with Nova, very communicative, and so easy to work with. Nova absolutely loved his time with them and he can be a high maintence boy!! They handled him and his anxiety in crowds and gave him the best weekend!! Will definitely use them agaib
