“Katie was amazing with our pups! We have 4 small dogs 8 month Yorkie, 7 year old Yorkie, 8 year old Yorkie mix, and a 10 year old Morkie. All with very distinct personalities and quirks. Katie came a couple times before hand to meet them. She quickly recognized everyone's characters and adjusted to keep them happy. If she had any questions, she did not hesitate to reach out. I received daily pictures and texts. Which is a blessing when you are leaving your babies for a length of time. Katie made me feel comfortable and I was able to enjoy my vacation.”
“Lila was a great sitter for Minnie. My very anxious “baby” took to Lila very quickly and that is not her norm, so I felt very comfortable leaving them together. Lila communicated and kept in touch well. She was very respectful of my home and even left a cute doggie thank you note. Minnie seemed to love her and I know this because often when I get home Minnie us sitting by the door waiting. She was sleeping in the living room and much calmer than my usual returns. I recommend Lila as responsive, responsible, and respectful. Thank you!!!”
“Jared was great, attentive and communicated well. Was glad to have someone caring for my dog while he was in cone head mode and had to stay behind on Thanksgiving! Would definitely re-book”
“I booked Hannah for 1 night of pet sitting. Hannah was on time and sent me lots of pics of my puppy! She took him for a walk, fed him, and played with him while I was gone. She also left a cute card for me when I got home! I would definitely book with Hannah again!”
“Kayla is such an amazing choice for your dogs! She is flexible with time, prompt to respond, and makes even our skiddish dog feel comfortable! We used Kayla to house sit and she sent many photo updates along the way. She kept the house clean as if she was never here! We appreciate her work and would recommend her if you want reliable and trustworthy.”
“Stacy was very thorough in reviewing care instructions for my two pups and made sure to text me with updates throughout the weekend. She was very accommodating to one of my pups who is more nervous with strangers, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if I need dog care!”
“Logan pet sat for our cat Bella for a week while we away. Bella is a senior with special needs. Logan came by to meet with Bella a few times before we went away. Logan then stayed at our home caring for Bella while attending college classes. We called every few days so Bella could hear our voice. Having Logan with Bella allowed us to be away knowing she was being well cared for and not alone for long periods of time. We will be in touch with Logan again to sit for Bella.”
“If I could give 100 more stars, I would! Please don’t hesitate to book Rebecka. She is an absolute gem! Actually, I’m having a hard time giving this review since I want to keep her all to myself! 😉 Rebecka was incredibly reliable, went above and beyond to care for my dog (who got sick while I was gone) and kept me updated with photos and check ins throughout the stay. My dog clearly loved Rebecka, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Rebecka stayed at my home and after a long travel day, I came into a clean, tidy and organized house, with a very happy and well cared for dog. Perfect! Highly, highly recommended!”

“James took great care of Onyx while I was away on vacation. He kept me posted with plenty of updates, photos and videos so I could see my pup happily playing and exploring the neighborhood.”
“Amanda was incredible! She sent a ton of photos of my dog and he absolutely loved her! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter, we couldn’t have had a better experience with her!”
“This is the second time we have asked Catherine to watch our dog and cat. And we would definitely ask her a third, fourth, fifth, and so on because she is wonderful caring for them! We had no worries being out of town and know that they are in good hands with Catherine. Anybody seeking Catherine's help to watch their pets will not be disappointed. Thank you so much!! - M&N”
About: I have lived with and taken care of my families dogs my whole life. We have had a yellow lab, a westie, and a jackapoo all who have had great adventurous lives. Throughout high school and college I walked and provided overnight dog sitting for multiple dogs consistently. I have provided care for dogs ranging in size from maltese dogs to cane corso’s. Having a dogs company while walking and exploring Lawrence is something I love to do to! I am here to help care for your dog in the ways that you need while also catering to their needs. I recently moved back to MA with plenty of time during the day or evenings to help feed, walk, and/or play with your dog(s)! I have the time to provide the love and attention they might be in need of. It is important to me to care for your animals based specifically on their needs. If that means playing in a yard, going for a quick walk around the neighborhood, or taking a long walk with sniff breaks I’m in! Dogs will never be off leash unless they are in their own fenced in yard.
“Our usual dog sitter/house sitter texted at the last minute (the day of) to cancel. We had a wedding to attend, and we had already booked a hotel as it was a big drive and would be a late night. So, I quickly hopped onto Rover to find a replacement. We sent a request to Kathy, and she responded immediately, and we scheduled the gig. We were very happy with Kathy. Her professionalism was outstanding, and our two dogs loved her. We felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. We were happy that we found Kathy and would use her again.”
About: I have been a dog owner (small. medium, large, house and sporting breeds) for 55 years and cat owner for 10 years. It is my passion to now take care of others pet needs. I am now retired and have plenty of time to help other manage the love of their pets when they are not available to do so. I cannot take care of pets in my home at this time. I rent and have 3 pets, significant other, a daughter and a grandson in the house.
“Jess did a great job taking care of our dogs and cat while we were away. She spent a lot of time with them and gave us updates every day. She was responsible and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others.”
“Madie was very sensitive to my dog's separation anxiety. She did a good job caring for my dog and the house. She cuddled with her and spent time outside playing with Skye. I felt very relieved knowing that Skye was well cared for. I would have her care for Skye, my dog anytime.”
About: Dogs are man’s best friend, and I treat them better than most friends! I’ve been dog sitting for people since I was about 18. Mostly family and friends, but I have always been welcomed back and asked for personally to watch dogs during vacations! I had 2 Golden Doodles of my own growing up, Lily and Lexi, who are the loves of my life! I’ve house sat for extended times, such as my good boy Scout for a few months as the owners went to Puerto Rico, my big dog Bailey who is a 120lb Cuddle Bug, and my Girlfriend’s family’s dog Tavish, who is a huge irish setter and also a lap dog! One thing I promise to everyone, is that your dog will be loved and watched over with the upmost care! Thank you for considering me to watch your pups! I currently work at Bay State Savings Bank in Auburn, Ma. My work schedule is Monday-Friday 9-4 with an hour lunch for running around! I’m used to waking up early so morning walks are never a problem, and during lunch I can always take care of potty/lunch breaks for your animals! My boss also loves dogs and agrees that an hour long break in the day is always doable. I currently live in an apartment building with no fenced in area and no pets allowed unfortunately, which is why my mother and father are keeping Lily and Lexi! Pet sitting will have to be done at the clients home.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, I offer more than just basic sitting — I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each animal’s unique needs. I specialize in puppy training, including basic commands and housebreaking, as well as gentle, compassionate support for senior pets who may need medication management, mobility assistance, or extra patience. My background includes working with shy, anxious animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating every pet like family, ensuring they receive the same love, structure, and attention they would at home. I work full-time during the week, but I’m passionate about pet care and am available to help on weekends. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or extended sitting, I’m happy to make weekends all about giving your pets the attention and care they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In your home, I respect your routines and house rules to help your pet feel secure and comfortable. I make sure pets are supervised, have access to fresh water, stay on their regular feeding and exercise schedules, and receive plenty of affection and playtime. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with lots of cozy resting areas and secure outdoor time (always supervised). I’m attentive to each pet’s needs, whether it’s administering medication, accommodating special diets, or simply offering extra patience and love.
About: I’ve volunteered at Dakin so my expertise is felines. I have rehabilitated, fostered, trained, and socialized any type of cat or kitten. Believe me, they’re just like dogs. My partner and I are both on-call medical professionals so one of us is always home during the week days. I’m at home during the weekends studying for school. Our time is very flexible! It’s best to keep pets separated until a day or two if they come into my home and then there’s a meet and greet. Otherwise, a meet and greet is essentially a day before before entering into their domain.

“Mike is what I call the animal whisperer. Mike gas a special connection with pets, to include our 2 cats and a dog with anxiety. We have 4 of us living in the house and each pet gravitate towards Mike every day. They love us as well, but you can see the bond Mike has with each pet. Mike has a tremendous amount of live for any animal. I have also witnessed Mike's interactions with pets being walked in front of our home, pets that don't know Mike and they to are immediately relaxed and interactive with Mike. I believe Mile would he an asset to Rover in any capacity with any type of pet.”

If these qualities were not enough, Matthew is loyal and takes pride in his people skills. His bank customers, family, and friends feel special, and valued because of the relationship skills he has worked hard to build. I highly recommend Matt!”
19. Bobbi-Jo S.
“I can’t recommend Bobbi Jo enough! She took amazing care of my dog, Gizmo, while I was away. From the start, it was clear she truly loves animals—Gizmo warmed up to her instantly, which says a lot. She kept me updated with pictures and little notes about how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to know there’s someone I can fully trust with my pup.”
