“Cidra was so sweet with my boys. She handled everything we asked for, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Over the past few weeks with Cidra caring for them, our cats have grown more and more comfortable with her. You can really tell they are genuinely happy every time she comes by!”

“Casey did a great job with a crazed puppy day with Charles and rolled with the punches as he was in full chaos mode. Great attentiveness and messaging throughout the process of drop ins.”

“William was kind, communicative, and conscientious as a cat sitter for our cat Gracie. She is not very approachable, especially with strangers, but William put in consistent effort to make a connection with her. We are grateful for his flexibility when we needed to extend our travel by a few days. We would absolutely hire William to catsit again.”

“Cameron dropped in 3 times while we were away for the weekend to feed our cats and give them a little attention. On time, super responsive and communicative. Very dependable!”

“Emily is amazing! Great with our 6 month old puppy making him feel comfortable and happy while we were out. She has great communication and is very punctual. Our second time using her on Rover and will be again!”

“Hannah was a great sitter for my shy cat Peanut! Hannah was very communicative, kept me updated on how Peanut was doing and made sure she was fed and comfortable (especially in a major heat wave!) I definitely recommend Hannah as a sitter!”

“Stephanie did a great job troubleshooting giving medicine to our cat, even when our cat was being difficult. She was also very communicative about how everything was going. We would book again!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can’t imagine a day without furry companionship! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to mellow senior dogs. I’ve handled high-energy pups who need frequent dog park visits and leash management, as well as older dogs who require patience and gentle outings at their own pace. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications. As a lifelong pet lover, I know that every dog has their own unique personality, and I take the time to build trust—whether it’s with a playful puppy, a strong tugger, or a shy pup who needs extra patience. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care so your pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you're away! I am only available on weekends. I may offer week night services for established clients. I require 3 days notice for all bookings. I service East Cambridge and the adjacent neighborhoods. I believe that a pet’s comfort and well-being go hand in hand with a safe and familiar environment. That’s why I care for pets exclusively in their own homes, ensuring they feel secure and at ease while their owners are away. I respect every client’s home as if it were my own—keeping spaces clean, following all household rules, and maintaining your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I pay close attention to leash security on walks, home entry/exit precautions, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy cat, I strive to create a calm, loving atmosphere so they feel safe, happy, and cared for.
“Amanda was amazing!! All updates were thorough and she took so many good pictures, she spent lots of time playing and cuddling with our cat, who clearly loved her too :) highly recommend!!!”

“Teylah was fantastic with our cat and us humans. She was easy to communicate with, was proactive in solving problems, improvised solutions, and we returned to a very happy and well-cared for cat. I would definitely book her again!”

“This was our second time booking with Gabi and just like last time, she took such great care of our girls! She was so mindful about making them as comfortable as possible that when one of my cats was feeling a bit shy, Gabi gave her a treat to reintroduce herself. Love the thoughtful and carefulness that Gabi has when checking in on my cats. Will be my go-to sitter from now on!!”

“Abby was great with Merlin! She’s incredibly responsive and sent the best playtime pics. Will definitely be reaching out in the future since we’re neighbors too :).”

About: I grew up with 2 Yorkies and bulldogs! I love dogs with my life. Dogs are like family to me. One of my Yorkies (they both live in my hometown) passed away recently due to her age, so I do know how to properly take care of dogs even when it comes to senior dogs or even puppies. I am always available to take care of dogs! I live with my boyfriend who works at home so he is available in case I’m not home. I go to law school so sometimes it does get busy but I’m always happy to take care of a baby (pet)! I take care of pets at my home by providing them a place for them to be able to sleep comfortably and play with their toys. I also think that talking to them calms them down and makes them more comfortable. Dogs are really smart and they do understand rules if you explain it to them!
About: I’ve been dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors since I was in elementary school. I was always the friend who was excited to take everyone’s dog on a walk, even when they were dreading it! I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and have experience with feeding, basic medications, long walks, playtime, and keeping routines consistent while owners are away. I’m a dependable, super active animal lover with just under 11 years of experience caring for dogs (walking, pet sitting, drop-ins, overnight stays). I grew up around dogs and helped raise and train my family’s 6-year-old Golden Retriever, Bear, who is the most perfect pooch in the world!! I’d love to help keep your pup active, cared for, and loved whenever you need an extra hand :) I’m currently studying for the LSAT and working part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and love using my free time to stay active. Dog walking and pet care fit really naturally into my routine since I already enjoy getting outside for long walks and being around animals. I’m very attentive to each dog’s routine, comfort level, and personality. I always make sure pets are fed, walked, loved, and kept safe, whether I’m at my home or a client’s. I’m comfortable following specific instructions, giving basic medications, and keeping owners updated so they know their pup is in good hands.
“Was incredibly attuned to my lil anxious Winston, provided consistent helpful feedback & was just overall a perfect pet sitter for my baby boy! I was nervous using rover for the first time, and Rachel exceeded my expectations & went above and beyond. Will be working with her again!”

“Jo and Adam were great! They were very responsive and took excellent care of my senior dog. I highly recommend them and would definitely book again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Cambridge
We just recently completed a 2+ week vacation, the longest we have left our cats at home. It is such a relief to know that Nick is taking such good care of them! We enjoyed his notes and photos after each visit. The cats obviously felt so comfortable with Nick that they treated him like family!!

Rita was friendly and very easy to communicate with! She always responded to me quickly whenever I had questions. She left a message and cute photos of my cat Kiwi at each check in so I knew she was being well cared for. Would definitely book with her again next time we need someone to drop in on her!

Weijia did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! She was very responsible, attentive, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for. I really appreciated her help and would happily book with her again. Highly recommended!
