“My dog Hunter loves John and has already stayed with him a few times. For this past trip when I dropped him off, he ran up to John’s apartment very excited. John always updates us and asks us questions when needed. We are so grateful to have John caring for Hunter. Thank you!”
“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!”

We will for sure be booking with them for future pet sitting!”

Charlestown dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kathryn and Matthew were great! They do such a wonderful job with my pup, who can be a bit nervous in some environments. They provided the perfect amount of communication while I was away, so I always felt informed and that was my pup was in a good spot and well cared for.
Olivia was awesome. Ray was so happy to be around her and he slept like a baby. She not just walked him around, they went for short hikes which Ray loves. Ray is growing older and now getting a personality and hence he is getting a bit finicky with his food and doesn’t eat at all places. This wasn’t a bit of a problem with her and he visibly looked happy once he was back. Will definitely book her again as needed.
Cricket couldn’t have been better cared for—and the evidence was in her smiling pics (of which there were many during our mutual vacations!) From the beginning of our communication, everything was seamless. I can’t recommend this great duo highly enough!!! If you don’t believe ME, just ask Cricket!!!! I think she can’t wait until her next visit!
Ruya is wonderful! Her and her husband are big animal lovers and you can see it right away. They have been so attentive with my dog and kept communication consistent and clear. My dog came back so peaceful and well taken care of. They sent videos and pictures throughout the stay and cuddled and played a lot with him- which is all a dog mum wants!
