“Yizi is Amazing and is very loving. We love her and Yizi is now part of Meeko’s Tribe. We are so grateful for the True Love and support we have received from Yizi, one of the best caregivers found on Rover. We can’t speak highly enough of Yizi and as long as she’ll have us we will always rebook. Thank you for all the photos and updates.”


“I am very glad I found John, as he was such a caring & attentive & calm sitter for slightly anxious dog. He gave routine updates & pictures to keep me informed of how things were going, & I can tell my dog had a very comfortable stay. I will definitely be booking John again!”


“Rachel took such good care of our dog Jax and provided plenty of updates and photographs. We will definitely ask her to watch Jax again and would highly recommend!”


“Alix was amazing! She looked after Loki and took care of his special needs, she was friendly and caring. Will definitely seek her again when we need dog sitting support again.”

“Rachel was a great host for our dog, Zoe. She was easy to coordinate with and very responsive in communicating with me. We enjoyed seeing photos every day of Zoe and Rachel hanging out, playing, out and about on walks and at the dog park. Zoe came home happy and we'd be happy to leave her with Rachel again!”


“Colin loves Anna and her husband. He always looks so happy to see them and when I pick him up. She’s the best sitter on this app. We will book her always.”


“Dohwee was wonderful - he took special care of Leia sending me daily updates and photos which I so appreciated. He was proactive and reached out to ask about tick medication given the change in season and was happy to pick up the medicine from my vet. Leia seemed happy and fulfilled when I went to collect her and I would definitely enlist Dohwee's support again!”


“Angela and her partner were amazing with my puppy Clementine!! She was very quick with responses throughout and sent great updates. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for great care while away.”


“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Ed and Shayana while visiting Boston. From the moment we met them, we could tell our dog Gus was in great hands—he warmed up to them right away, which immediately put us at ease. They were incredibly kind, hospitable, and communicative throughout Gus’s stay. We received regular updates, complete with photos and videos, several times a day. It was clear they were not only attentive to his needs, but genuinely cared about his comfort and happiness. Gus also had a blast hanging out with their sweet dog, Isla—an added bonus! It truly felt like a home away from home for him. If you're looking for a stress-free, loving environment for your pup, Ed and Shayana should be at the very top of your list. We can’t recommend them highly enough!”


“Thank you so much for watching Harley! I could tell immediately that she felt comfortable/trusted you when I dropped her off and it made such a difference in allowing me to enjoy my trip. She’s already eaten the treat you sent her home with.”


“Absolutely amazing, fabulous and incredibly caring and thoughtful caregivers! They are very experienced with dogs and create a safe and playful environment! I will definitely be bringing my dog back and recommending them to friends!!”


“Patrick is so helpful and accommodating! He accepted my urgent booking with just one day's notice and really helped to solve my issue. Pamela was well taken care of and happy when I returned. I couldn't be more grateful for Patrick's flexibility and excellent care. Highly recommended!”


“Victoria communicated well and was able to share pictures of my pup Cairo while he was in her care. Cairo is very energetic and Victoria did a good job of trying to tire him out. He seemed to have a good time while with her. Thanks again Victoria!”


“My very sweet, energetic and sometimes anxious Ruby had another very happy stay with Michelle. I can tell how much Michelle loves dogs in how thoughtful she is interacting with them. Although I miss Ruby while I'm away, it is so so comforting knowing she is with Michelle, & getting such wonderful attention & care. Thank you, Michelle!!!”


“Our dog was in great hands with Baoyi & Tianshu -- they were very quick to respond to all messages and made sure our dog was well taken care of”


“Tyler was great to Coco! He helped her become part of the pack he was watching and kept me well informed. She was so exhausted after her stay- like she just got back from summer camp!”

“I booked Meredith to watch my dog Zulie from April 18th to the 23rd, and she was amazing! Super attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making Zulie comfortable and happy. She sent me regular photo updates, which I really appreciated. Zulie seemed relaxed and well taken care of the entire time. I’d absolutely book Meredith again!”


“Paula and Estefan are my new favorite sitters. They were so friendly and communicative, and they went above and beyond in caring for my dog. Their son was clearly very comfortable with dogs and was great with mine. They also have an indoor dog relief space, which was good because my dog doesn’t like going outside when it’s raining, snowing, or very windy. I highly recommend Paula and Estefan!”

Juliana was great! This was our first time leaving our puppy with a sitter on Rover and we felt very comfortable with her. She sent updates with photos each day.

Gil and Yerina were wonderful with our puppy Stella! They made her feel at home in their place and were very attentive to all her needs, especially since she’s had some health issues recently requiring medication. They are communicative and send regular updates. Would recommend :)

Naomi went above and beyond and took great care of our somewhat needy Yorkie. I would definitely use her again.

Connor was a dream sitter. He sent regular photos and updates for the pup and seem to genuinely love dogs. Would have him again anytime.

Angela was amazing! She provided daily photos and updates for Kylo. She has two cats that got along great with my pup. Kylo loved it there and I will for sure be booking again. Thanks Angela!

This was our second time booking with Victoria, and once again, we couldn’t be happier. She sent frequent updates and adorable photos, which clearly showed how happy, relaxed, and well cared for our dog was. It gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again!

Rashelys was an Amazing, Loving, Caring pet sitter for my Chihuahua Bailey, she kept in contact daily thru photos and videos, if I text she would reply immediately, Bailey was well taken care of and I could see thru photos and videos that she was comfortable and happy in her home😊 I will surely re-book with Rashelys, she will be my go to pet sitter anytime I will need care in the future , Rashelys is very Loving, Educated, Professional person and sitter, experienced in administrating medication to my Bailey. Once again Thank You Rashelys for your Great work, I truly appreciate it 😊❤️

David was very communicative and easy to coordinate with. I could see how gentle and loving he was with his own dog and mine. I would recommend him for other boarding stays!

Really great! Our kiddo had a lots of fun staying with Stephanie. Stephanie was very attentive and sent us lots of pictures. Will definitely repeat

Lucy is amazing. She is a wonderful communicator and caretaker. Our dog had some tummy issues and she was so attentive. We feel lucky that she took in our pup!

Arcadia took great care of Barkley while we took in a game at Fenway Park. Great communication and seemless dropoff and pickup.

Elena was AMAZING! She kept me up to date on Pippas adventures and even gave her a bath and took her to get her favorite, a pup cup! From the get go I felt very comfortable leaving pips with Elena and would absolutely recommend her to anyone that is looking for a Rover in the Boston area. Will absolutely use her over and over again!

She is a fantastic lady to take care of my little dog. I strongly recommend her. I had one week vacation and I left my dog with her and I know my dog was happy.

Brendan was great with our older nervous beagle! He is very thorough in asking questions to understand your dog's situation. He very much appreciates that different dogs have different needs and works within that. Small snafu with another dog being booked at the same time but Brendan was very open about it and was able to arrange things such that they did not bother each other.

Elana did a great job with my dog Nalah. She was patient getting to know her, had lots of toys to play with and took Nalah for long walks. Great communication too. I highly recommend Elana.

Ted was fantastic with my dog while I was traveling. He kept in touch every day and was always quick to respond. It was clear my pup was in good hands the entire time. I’d gladly book with Ted again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.

Nikki was great! Super communicative and took our dog out to play a lot. Would definitely use again!

This was my fourth time leaving my dog in Lily’s care, and once again, she exceeded all expectations! Lily continues to be an incredible caregiver - attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely loving. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable hands. Her communication throughout the stay was outstanding. She kept me updated with frequent photos and videos, which brought me so much peace of mind and allowed me to see how happy and well-cared-for my pup was. It’s clear she puts in extra effort to make each stay special - taking him on fun walks and little adventures, ensuring he’s mentally and physically stimulated, and most importantly, providing a warm, nurturing environment that feels like a second home. I truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Lily is a gem, and I’m so grateful to have someone I trust wholeheartedly with my dog. Looking forward to booking with her again!

Billy was absolutely wonderful in all ways! He is extremely responsive to inquiries and proactively communicates in a way I appreciated greatly. He provided superb care for my 12 week old puppy. He put me at ease and gave me peace of mind for the week I was away. He also provided outstanding suggestions about training. Highly recommend!!
