“Erin was great. Our cats loved her and she was able to get them to come out and play which was great because our kitten can be a little shy sometimes. 100% having her back.”

About: I've had multiple dogs in my life since I was a child, and truly believe that they make anyone's life better! I have trained two dogs from puppy age all the way to senior age before moving to Boston (you can see my lovely dogs in my photo gallery). After coming to Boston, I would love to take care of your dog and give them tons of love! Happy to chat about what your dog needs :) I'm a student, who works during the week. I have a flexible work schedule, and it is extremely common to take breaks in the day to check in/walk dogs! I'm completely free on the weekends, and would love to take care of your dog during a vacation or trip. I don't have any dogs at home, so no worries if your dog doesn't necessarily love other dogs! I have a small yard, but live super close to two dog parks. My house is spacious, and there is room for a crate if needed. I'm also experienced in taking care of puppies, reactive dogs, and senior dogs.

“Cidra was great! Super sweet and caring with my cat. She visited my 20-year-old cat for three days while I was away and was incredibly understanding and patient with all his old-age issues. I felt very reassured knowing he was in such good hands.”

About: I've grown up around dogs and love spending time with them. I deeply miss my family dog who I always spoil when I visit. Outside of my family I regularly am my friends go to care taking/ walking person. I'm comfortable with dogs of any size except extra-large breeds. I can also give medication that's mixed into food, though I'm not set up for injections. I live with roommates who also have pet care experience in a quiet household. My schedule is flexible I work from home, so I can offer more consistent attention and some flexibility around visit times. My neighborhood has several parks nearby and is easy and pleasant to walk around, so walks are never just a quick lap around the block. I am currently working part time and am available for weekly or even daily times! My schedule will be updated regularly to reflect any unavailability ahead of time. My home is currently pet free and I have a large living room area they can explore around. Before any pets visit I make sure there isn't anything that they shouldn't interact with. I clean the space and check for any plants that may need to be moved around and I can keep them crated if needed too.

About: Hi! My name is Celine and I’m new to Rover :) I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! Even though I didn’t grow up with one because of my dad’s allergies, I’ve always jumped at any chance to care for friends’ dogs. I’m very active, so I love going on walks, playing, and making sure pets get lots of attention and exercise. Ive also read a lot about how to take care of certain breeds of dogs (example: Dachsund) and what exercises and mental stimulation they will need. I’ve dog sat many times over the years and enjoy every minute of it. I’m thinking of getting a puppy next year so would love to use Rover as a start! Please be aware that I will be moving to CT/NYC November 21st! So I will be available in Boston until then :) I currently am working hybrid (Tuesday-Wednesday) in office, but my partner works fully remote Monday-Friday (He also loves animals and has a dog of his own at home, so he would be able to take care of any dog/cat while I’m at work for a couple hours)! On the days where I work from home, I have time throughout the day to go on a walk, make lunch, etc. I will have plenty of time to take care of pets throughout the week/weekends. I care for pets by making sure they always have fresh water available and that they feel comfortable, safe, and happy in my care. During walks, I pay close attention to a dog’s body language and energy levels, and I adjust accordingly if they seem uncomfortable or overwhelmed. I also love keeping pets entertained and engaged throughout the day with playtime, enrichment activities, and even a little training—whether it’s for learning or just for fun!

“This was my second time booking Gabrielle, and once again she took wonderful care of my cat, Kali. During the heat wave, she went the extra mile by making sure the AC was turned on when needed and even refilled Kali’s water bowl with ice to keep her comfortable. She even complied with some of my cats tantrums to keep her happy while I was away, and I was especially grateful that she was available over a holiday weekend. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her, I really appreciate it!”

About: Growing up in a multi-dog household, dogs weren’t just pets to me, but they’re my best friends. I am deeply familiar with the day-to-day realities of dog care and naturally understand canine behavior and routines. For puppies, I seamlessly reinforce house-training, crate routines, and basic manners. For older dogs, I bring the patience needed for senior care, including managing slow mobility and following strict medication schedules. Living with multiple dogs has taught me to read subtle body language, so I know exactly when a dog is anxious, over-stimulated or just needs quiet space. My job provides me a unique schedule that fits perfectly into pet care because I often work weekends, I have dedicated days off in the middle of the week. Additionally I work from home one day a week. This setup gives me exceptions midweek flexibility that a standard 9-5 sitter does not have. On my days off and WFH days, pet care is my primary focus. I am fully available for midday walks, daytime drop in visits, or keeping a house-sitting puppy company without the disruption of a strict office schedule. I update my Rover calendar constantly to reflect my weekly event shifts to ensure availability is always accurate and reliable for you. I take pride in learning and replicating your exact house rules, feeding schedules, and favorite walking loops. I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and secure while you are away. I am able to offer your dog true, focused companionship during the daytime hours when they miss you the most.

“Nathan was fantastic! I was concerned because my dog has some separation anxiety and we weren’t sure how she would do, but Nathan’s visits, updates and photos truly put me at ease. He took her to hang out with some of his regular dogs he works with and she did great and had fun. I will DEFINITELY be reaching out to Nathan again in the future and I highly recommend him to anyone else in the area. Thank you, Nathan!”

About: I have been an animal lover in my whole life growing up. I had a white cocker spaniel named Rainbow (that was the first thing I thought of when I got him as a five-year-old). she sparked a lifelong love for pets since then I’ve carried for cats and dogs of many friends and family members. I am currently a full-time student. I am able to have drop in visits on the weekends and also some time during the week. I can do doggy day care during the weekends and a few days during the week as well. I am able to on-board depending on a few factors and house sit. I do live in an apartment with a few other roommates who can help take care and provide services. There is a park near where I live which I can take them too.

“Anna was a fantastic pet-sitter and I'm so glad I chose her to care for my cat Betty. Anna was excellent! She was responsive, communicative in booking, came over for a intro visit, and followed all the care instructions. She sent thorough updates on each visit, sent pictures, and really bonded with my (grumpy) cat. I loved her updates on my cat's behavior, bowel movements, and eating/drinking habits. I felt incredibly comfortable knowing I had her as a pet sitter, which is something all pet owners seek. I definitely recommend Anna for cat drop-in visits and intend to book her for future travel. Thank you Anna!”

About: Hi! My name is Megan and I’m a passionate dog lover and experienced dog owner. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs because I care for one of my own every day. I provide reliable, attentive, and fun dog walking and sitting services to help keep your pup happy, healthy, and exercised. Whether your dog enjoys energetic walks, leisurely strolls, or extra time for sniffing and exploring, I tailor each walk to their comfort level and personality. As a fellow pet parent, I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, patience, and care while in my hands. I currently am working as a nurse, and work typically three days a week. The other four days I am home and able to care for your fur baby! I will never accept booking on days I work to ensure they have proper attention throughout the day. I treat each pet that comes into my home as my own! That being said I do have a dog of my own who is very friendly with other animals. I ensure that they are well stimulated throughout the day with walks, chew toys, lick mats etc. I just ask that you give me any details you can to ensure your pet has a great stay/walk!

Ashley was the absolute best. It was our first time leaving our cat alone and we were very nervous since our cat is very shy. To our very pleasant surprise, our cat came out and interacted with Ashley in every visit. Ashley was very patient and took very good care of our little ‘Tina. Ashley showed up promptly at every appointment and was very patient and attentive with Tina’s needs. Highly recommend.

Vee was lovely to work with from start to finish. She took wonderful care of Louis and was so sweet and attentive with him, spending time playing with him and giving him lots of cuddles. It was clear he was comfortable and happy with her, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We’d happily have Vee care for him again and would definitely recommend her!
