“Our beagle had yet another wonderful stay with Kira and Steve. He loves it there, and I never worry when I am on vacation because they take such good care of him. Thank you!”
“Yick was communicative, caring, and so responsible with our hollie. They went out of their way to handle her pick up and drop offs and made the whole travel plan work out completely without any stress.”
“Dino stayed with Jieming for two full weeks, and he was great! He was very communicative, sent pictures every day, and Dino clearly had a great time. Definitely recommend him!”
“If you are anywhere close to Sarah and Luis do not hesitate - JUST BOOK! Here is why; amazing communication from start to finish, meticulous home, exceptional understanding of dogs and their needs, kind and loving children, listened and respected to our care instructions, went above and beyond with our pup Riley's needs......THANK YOU Sarah we will be back!”
“Nancy took amazing care of our dogs for almost 2 weeks while we were away in Europe. She communicated to us daily with photos to match her captions, letting us know they were doing well (they are old and not in the best of health). We were so grateful she could take them a month before we were to leave (we had a family emergency so needed a back up plan) especially during the holiday season! She was so thoughtful to help us out and go to the store when we neglected to pack their doggie treats. We highly recommend Nancy - she treated our dogs as if they were her own! ❤️”
“Bo & Xiaosong were AMAZING! Our Westie Fergus had a wonderful long stay and we’ll definitely be back. We greatly appreciated the frequent texts, photos and videos which showed us Fergus was enjoying himself! There happened to be a heatwave while we were away and Bo & Xiaosong took extra effort to take good care, walking at early and late hours when the heat was minimal. They even cooked him chicken when they worried he wasn’t eating enough! Such outstanding dog sitters! Highly, highly recommend!”
“Tomoe was FANTASTIC! Extremely nice, and welcoming personality. Felt comfortable immediately after our meet & greet session. She gave lots of updates with texts, pictures, and videos the entire weekend I was out of town. 100% recommend to anyone looking for Rover care. Bravo! 👏🏻”
“Our pup had a great time with Lu! She was a great communicator and sent lots of sweet pictures and messages. We really appreciated all the love she gave our dog. Thank you!”
“Liliya did a wonderful job boarding our dog! She was so communicative, took wonderful pictures, and took care of our pup while he had an upset stomach. She is wonderful and we would highly recommend her, and her family to anyone looking for dog care or boarding!”
“Bean had a great time with Hannah! Hannah was very easy to communicate with and flexible with our plans. The space outside for dogs is securely fenced so they can be off leash which is great! Will definitely send Bean there again!! Thank you”
“Jen was terrific to our dog. They treated him so well with warmth, care, attention, and provided him with lots of activity. We very much appreciated her positive energy, professionalism, and organization in preparing and during his care. Also, such great communication and pictures to capture his time with her family and dogs. Highly recommend Jen as sitter.”
“Claude had a good time and we loved the photos along the way - would definitely book with Sarah again! We could tell he got tons of attention from everyone in the family and really felt at home!”
“Margeaux had such a great time staying with Katherine and Sean and their kids! She barely wanted to come home. Katherine and Sean were great about sharing updates and pictures throughout her stay and kept me posted on how she was doing. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Teddie just came back from a sleepover with Aga and it went well. She sent pictures of him playing with a new furry friend and it looked like they were having a great time. We are very happy - Aga is great at communicating and we feel Teddie is in good hands.”
“Souvik and Meghan were amazing with my nervous Caribbean rescue. Souvik was expert at reading her behavior and working with her to build trust and Meghan was great at gently and patiently building a relationship with her. Staying with them for a week helped my dog with socializing with both people and other dogs. Their home and outdoor space was very comfortable and safe - a quiet neighborhood away from busy streets.”
“I couldn't be happier with my boarding experience for Tibet! Maria and her family were absolutely amazing, showering him with care and affection. Their genuine love for dogs shone through, and I felt completely at ease knowing Tibet was in such good hands. I definitely recommend Maria and her family to anyone looking for a loving boarding experience!”
About: I grew up with two dogs, and love to spend all the time with my parents’ two pups when I visit! I’ve helped them with eyedrops, allergy meds, and ACL tears - with a stroller purchase so they can still enjoy a walk! I am a teacher at a local elementary school and have free afternoons and lots of free weekends! I love any and all dog snuggles on the couch, going for walks, and playing fetch with all the Lampchops :) 🐑 My apartment is tidy and clean, with a large fenced in area in the apartment complex specifically for dogs. I can crate your dog to sleep or they can snuggle up on the couch. I can share as many or as little photos/updates with you as you’d prefer - I know leaving your pup can be hard but I promise they are in good hands!
About: I’ve got a big Doberman and a goofy American Staffy of my own, so I’m super comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve taken care of everything from little lap dogs to big, reactive pups—and I truly get them! I treat every dog like my own, with love, patience, all of the attention! Pet care fits into my routine easily since I have a flexible schedule. I’m available on short notice and can give your pup the attention and care they need throughout the day—whether it’s for walks, feedings, or just company. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, cozy space with lots of love and attention. I have a large yard, and while it’s not fenced, I always keep dogs safely leashed outside unless otherwise requested. I don’t use crates at the moment, but I make sure each dog has a comfy spot to relax and feel secure. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, or specific habits. I’m respectful, reliable, and always focused on keeping pets happy and stress-free while you’re away.

Cochituate dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our 8 lb Yorkie really enjoyed his stay with Iana. She sent us updates and pictures daily, and her communication was excellent! We could tell that our dog was very comfortable with her. We appreciated Iana getting to know our dog's personality and would definitely use her again.
We needed a sitter for our dog for a last minute trip we planned. This would be for 18 days. Finding a sitter was no easy task. Thankfully, Evan was available. Everything about our transaction was smooth and easy. He has an older dog, Luke who got along great with our younger and energetic Johnny. We received regular check ins and pictures during our trip. Jonny's stay with Evan was everything we could have hoped for. Really, I cannot heap enough praise. I would definitely consider Evan for another assignment the next time we need a sitter.
Outstanding Pet Boarding Experience with Amy & Aaron! Amy and Aaron took amazing care of our dog, Toby, while we were away. They followed all of his needs perfectly—including giving him his medications and sticking to his food portions—and he looked happy, healthy, and well-loved when we picked him up. It’s clear they treated him like one of their own. Communication was smooth, and it gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trusted pet sitters and will absolutely be booking with them again!
Keith was wonderful with Journey! He was easy to work with, incredibly caring, and provided daily pictures that gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Journey was clearly comfortable and happy in his care. Keith’s thoughtful communication and genuine love for animals made our experience worry-free. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!
Sarah is amazing. Usually when I pick up our dog after he stays with someone he runs to our car to get in. He was so well loved and cared for that he went to Sarah to get extra snuggles. Sarah was very communicative for his whole stay and sent great pictures of their adventures. Will definitely be booking with her again. Can’t recommend her enough.
Souvik and Meghan were fabulous with our 2 dogs- Inigo and Annie. They get to know your dog(s) with the meet and greet and do all they can to make your pups comfortable during their stay. We were quite pleased with their dog care, individual attention, and their excellent communication throughout the week. We already have our next visit set up!
We are so grateful to Emily for taking such amazing care of our dog, Aria, while we were on vacation. From the moment we dropped Aria off, we knew she was in great hands. Emily was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs, Aria settled in right away! Aria enjoyed her daily walks and playing in her fenced backyard. Throughout the stay, Emily kept us updated with sweet messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind and showed just how happy and comfortable Aria was in her home. It was clear she treated Aria like one of her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Aria with Emily again. Highly recommended!
We had such a great experience with Julianna! We boarded our dog at her place for a few days while out of town. She was flexible with her schedule and sent several updates/pictures. Her home was very clean, she was sweet to our dog, and a really nice person to deal with. You can tell she really loves dogs. You’re in good hands, highly recommended!
