“Kevin was great with our 7-month-old puppy! This was our first big trip away from him, and Kevin took great care of him and kept us updated throughout the weekend. He was very flexible with drop off and pick-up times, which was appreciated as we navigated winter weather. The fenced-in back yard was a special treat for our dog to be able to have some space to run around, too! Would recommend Kevin to anyone and would rebook!”
“They provided excellent care, and sent plenty of photos/updates of my special needs dog while I was away on an extended trip. They were also very accommodating when I needed to extend my trip due to a delay. I cannot recommend them enough.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place for Frankie to be while we were away.A fenced in back yard where she could run and play with other dogs.The pictures they sent gave us a great feeling while we away and missing her.Our nephew just got a puppy and we told him we would highly recommend Ben and Sarah.”
“Shuping is one of the best “nanas” Cookie has ever had, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found her through Rover. From the moment Cookie stayed with her, it was clear how much warmth, kindness, and genuine love she gives to the pets in her care. She treated Cookie as if she were her own, and that gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. One of our favorite things was receiving her sweet updates. She would send us adorable photos and videos and share little stories about Cookie’s day. The way she affectionately referred to Cookie as a “little rascal” always made us smile and showed just how much she cared for her. As pet parents, being away from your beloved pet can be difficult. Finding someone who loves, cares for, and cherishes your pet almost as much as you do is truly a blessing. That’s exactly what we found in Shuping. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive caregiver for their pet. She is warm, kind, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful. We would happily trust Cookie with her again anytime.”
“Kira and her family were wonderful with Luna. Their level of detail and organization was impressive. They integrated Luna with the other dogs beautifully. We are very grateful.”
“Jing has watchedy dog multiple times in the past few months. My dog absolutely loves staying with her. She gets tons of exercise, plenty of time outdoors, and gets along great with Jing's dogs. Jing has also been especially helpful when I was dealing with travel delays by being both flexible and assuring me my dog was taken care of”
“Alan & Ying are great dog sitters. I get little videos every other day or so, and my boy is taken care of. Alan is very responsive to messages and obviously loves dogs.”
“Michelle took great care of our high maintenance English bulldog while we were away for a week! Due to his breed, he requires quite a bit of extra attention and Michelle went above and beyond!”
About: I've taken care of 12 foster dogs and have 2 of my own dogs - both rescues! My foster dogs have been as young as 6 weeks and as old as 10 years. I've helped dogs work on house training and leash reactivity. I worked in the nonprofit sector and am starting to work with dogs as of September 2024. I could walk your dog with my dogs if you're interested in introducing them! I walk my dogs three times per day and do a little bit of training every day as well! I would be happy to help work on any leash training that you need help with on the walks.
“Tianyue was awesome every step of the way. This was our first time using Rover and we have never left Bailey with anybody before, so we were apprehensive. Tianyue was very sweet and sent lots of videos. We would definitely recommend her to anyone. Thank you Tianyue for everything!”
“I felt that Stephen and Ceicilia took great care of Oliver. He was nice and fit, they took him for walks and were with him all the time. He seemed really happy and well taken care of .”
“Great, easy stay! Steven was responsive and flexible with pickup times. He worked with me to understand my dog's feeding quirks and walk schedule. He sent pictures during the trip and I knew my doggo was safe and comfortable with him. Thanks!”
“Alex took amazing care of Gretta during her stay. He is incredibly kind, patient and thoughtful. He sent us amazing photos and videos. It's clear he truly loves dogs but also just an incredible human !!! I can't recommend him enough”
“Dusty had a great time with Julie, and she was terrific. Warm and caring, really great communication throughout Dusty’s stay, which is always much appreciated. Flexible and understanding on a traffic delay I had coming to get her. Would definitely have Dusty stay again and highly recommend to anyone else looking for quality care for your pup!”
“Very happy with Norman’s stay. Dan has a sweet dog of his own that Norman for along with. They went in a nice walk up to Blue Hills for some outside time. Great communication to let me know everything was going well.”
“Carolina is awesome. Kaci loves to visit and enjoys spending time with the other dogs. They keep me updated with photos and take him on good walks. I love that she offers pick up and drop and is always on time. As a busy person it is good to have a sitter you trust.”
“Oscar took great care of our dog, Bella! They were very communicative (+ sent lots of photos and videos of our girl having the best time). The first night Bella had some tummy problems, and they took care of her and communicated throughout the day. She was better by day two! I can’t speak highly enough! Will definitely have Oscar watch Bella again soon!”
Dedham pet parents share their Rover experiences
As an owner to a newly adopted dog, I was very anxious about having to leave my dog behind for two days so soon after bringing her home. Jodi was quick with responses, sent lots of pictures and videos, and asked questions when necessary. She was wonderful and I will be booking her again. Thank you, Jodi!
Sarah and family (humans and dogs) made my pup feel like family! He got to play and cuddle all day long and we got cute pictures throughout the weekend. They were patient with his puppy behavior and their love for dogs is so special! We will happily leave our pup in their care again!
Julie was fantastic. After my family met with her we knew instantly she was the one for us. We used her overnight for our son’s wedding and could not have been happier. We had never had our Molly stay with anyone other than a family member so this was a big deal for us, plus the first time we used Rover. Julie put me at ease and shared pictures of her and Molly. Cannot go wrong with Julie. Highly recommended!!
Dan was great with my two dogs. Very communicative and sent many updates/photos which I appreciated. Also kept me updated with what they did during the day. The dogs seemed very happy and comfortable there. Dan also did well with my senior dog who definitely has his quirks at times. Thank you!
Joe had the BEST time with Karin and Charlie, truly his home away from home and he has been so sad to leave. We got daily messages and adorable photos each day from Karin and they were so attentive to Joe's needs and daily medication and quirks. We can't wait to have them babysit him again, I'm sure Joe feels the same. A+++++ sitters
Debbie took great care of our dog, Sam recently. She has such a sweet and calm nature that put Sam at ease and she shared pics of Sam so we could see how he was doing. I was really impressed that she even played one of Sam’s favorite games with him, which I know made Sam happy as it did us as well.
Joanna provided pics and videos of Jasmine’s stay. It was such a delight to see our pup was on vacation while we were on vacation. We missed her terribly and it was so sweet to see that Jasmine had a good time on vaca too! I’d do it again. It was a great stay. Jasmine’s head tilts when we mention Joanna is all the proof. This is good. Many thanks.
