Alex stayed with my guys for a week, and despite my dog being a brat she took excellent care of him. I don’t travel much, but I would definitely use her again. Thank you!

I cannot recommend Wendy enough! She watched my dog for 4 days during the busy holiday period when no one else was available. She is extremely responsive and provided consistent updates the whole time, which really put my mind at ease. She is reliable, kind, and professional. It was such a relief knowing Luna was in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with Wendy again.

Meagan was GREAT! She took excellent care of my special needs dogs and kept me updated on how they were doing throughout my trip. She even brought something to my notice that she and I hadn’t specifically discussed. She washed the towels and sheets before she left and even took out the trash and recycling for me. SUCH a good sitter! Will definitely rebook.

Got it—here’s the corrected version of your review with Rex’s name updated: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the pleasure of having Joyann check in on our Pomeranian, Rex, while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday, and she did an absolutely amazing job. She cared for Rex with such attention and kindness, sending us pictures throughout the week that gave us peace of mind. Joyann went above and beyond—handling unexpected issues like running out of pads and taking care of accidents without hesitation. Her reliability and thoughtful updates made this our first experience using Rover a wonderful one. We were very impressed and would highly recommend Joyann to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter. We will definitely be using her again.

Aleria is an earnest and caring young woman. She was contracted to house and pet sit for 16 days, and that's a really long time. The house was in perfect condition when we returned (except for a few pee spots), but I think that means she wasn't staying the night. The dogs were in good health upon our return, although Hermes was constipated. I think that indicates she didn't add rice and pumpkin to his nightly dinner consistently. But she did something we will always be supremely grateful for. When Inanna developed a bad limp, she took her to emergency vet services and paid with her own money! Of course, we reimbursed her. But I think that shows great maturity and responsibility and concern for the animal's welfare above all else. You can't beat that. So we had a few crossed wires on expectations, but in all fairness, she had a lot of family responsibilities come up, too, and she lives on the other end of the valley. No damage done in the long run. I think she'd be a great sitter for a shorter duration and for some place closer to her home base. I would certainly consider her for future stays.

About: I am a dedicated animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. From walking and feeding to giving medication and managing group play, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for other people's pets. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, and I believe in creating a calm, safe, and fun environment for them—whether it's for a few hours or an extended stay. I am dependable, detail-oriented, and not afraid of hard work (or messy paws). I make it a point to communicate with pet parents and update y'all on your dog's stay to give you peace of mind. Thank you for reading. Message me to book! I work part-time with a flexible schedule, therefore, I can be available most of the day to care for your fur babies. Please reach out and I will work with your schedule. I have a small fenced yard and can cage my dogs if needed. I will follow your feeding and walking instructions as well as ensure to safely manage group play,

About: In my home, every pet is treated with love and care as if they were my own. They’re free to roam, snuggle on the couch, or nap wherever they feel most comfortable. My home is completely pet-proof, with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time (always supervised!). I always go the extra mile to make pets feel safe and cared for. Once, I was given a dog with no crate or blanket and told he was house-trained—he wasn’t. With patience and love, I helped him adjust, gently crate-trained him, and gave him a cozy blanket so he could feel secure. Moments like these remind me how important it is to treat every pet like family. I kindly ask that you bring your pet’s essentials—like food, bowls, and favorite items—along with their routine, so I can keep their days feeling familiar and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and happiness mean everything to me, so I cannot accept animals who show aggressive behavior. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine since I’m available every day except Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have school. Outside of that, I’m flexible and available whenever needed. I maintain calm, pet-safe spaces, follow feeding and potty routines, give slow introductions, double-check leashes, and offer comfort like blankets, toys, or crate time when needed.

Wendy did an amazing job with our pups! She sent pictures every visit throughout the visit. We had an emergency and was unable to come home the day we thought and Wendy was able to help us out. Would definitely book her again.

Gabby was the best. We moved with our doggies to a different state/town and had to travel again without them immediately after arriving to our new home. The dogs were happy and safe and adjusted well to their new environment with her help. My apartment was clean and well cared for and she even made sure to unplug any cables as a safety precaution when she left. Totally recommend Gabby 💯 and I'm looking forward to having her care for my pup again!

About: I’ve been around dogs ever since I can remember, and have raised many from birth throughout their life. I have also trained several dogs using positive reinforcement techniques. I am very passionate about pet care and will treat your dog like I treat my own, as part of my family. Rover is my work! My partner works from home so my full attention is with the dogs 24/7. Any time you need it, I’m available. We have a completely dog safe environment inside and out. We have a fenced backyard with kiddie pools for the pups. Our lab is mild mannered and friendly. She enjoys the company of other dogs. We do not have any crates, but can have our dog separated in her room if needed. Crates are welcome if your dog is more comfortable for sleep or relaxation time.

About: I have 50 years of experience with dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, bunnies and even a beta! In my own history I’ve dealt with special needs situations and work hard to maximize joy and quality of life despite pessimistic predictions. I will take great care of your fur babies but may also insult them from time to time for being lazy bums. Sorry, I coached kids in soccer for years but pets are better! I am soft but firm and understand basic pet psychology and health matters. Pets usually like me. If they don’t, we must question their judgment. Even though they are usually right about people! Seriously I love pets and don’t mess around w their welfare. I am not squeamish in situations and will protect your pets as well as your home. I take the honor of caring for people’s fur kids to heart and make sure services are win win, hassle free and professional. peace Recently partially retired and working from home and can accommodate odd schedules with reasonable notice. I recently sat for a week in Holliston, MA for 2 dogs, 2 cats, bees and a pesky fox and realize I like to take care of pets and it keeps me productive and motivated. References from that job available. From the dogs or owner. Don’t listen to the cats. They are instigators. :) I am a common sense, intelligent, caring professional and will follow instructions while also applying my gentle experience and common sense to any situation. I was a school business official and so have been fully background checked and fingerprinted. Pets are safe with me because I’m looking out for them and their families. Diligently.

Naomi does an excellent job staying in communication and cares so well for my dog. I’ve rebooked her multiple times because of this. I’ve used her for several overnight stays and the house is always kept in perfect condition. Fully trust her with my dog and home!
