“Zwany is absolutely amazing! She’s incredibly accommodating and understands what a pet parent needs to feel comfortable leaving their baby with her and her family. I did a one night trial before a longer sit later this year to make sure both Tilly and Zwany would be comfortable with each other. Tilly had a great time and fit right in. Zwany asked all the right questions before the stay to make sure it would be successful and demonstrated that she was ready for any of tillys quirks that may pop up during her visit. I got a detailed review at pick up and I could tell Tilly was happy to be there! Zwany was so knowledgeable and caring. Can’t wait for Tilly to go back!”
“Angela and her partner were amazing with my puppy Clementine!! She was very quick with responses throughout and sent great updates. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for great care while away.”
“Victoria and her boyfriend took such wonderful care of our baby. I’m a very anxious person and Victoria sent us plenty of pictures and gave us daily updates. She made me feel very comfortable knowing he was in such great hands. So happy to have a great sitter for Parker and I know he’s looking forward to his next stay with Victoria! 🥰”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Ed and Shayana while visiting Boston. From the moment we met them, we could tell our dog Gus was in great hands—he warmed up to them right away, which immediately put us at ease. They were incredibly kind, hospitable, and communicative throughout Gus’s stay. We received regular updates, complete with photos and videos, several times a day. It was clear they were not only attentive to his needs, but genuinely cared about his comfort and happiness. Gus also had a blast hanging out with their sweet dog, Isla—an added bonus! It truly felt like a home away from home for him. If you're looking for a stress-free, loving environment for your pup, Ed and Shayana should be at the very top of your list. We can’t recommend them highly enough!”
“Yizi sent lots of pictures, responded promptly to any questions. My small dog was very happy to arrive at her apartment and was well rested and content when I picked him up. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Elliot and his wife did a great job with Oakley. They respond fast, and seem to go out of their way to make your dog their top priority when they are in their care.

“I booked Meredith to watch my dog Zulie from April 18th to the 23rd, and she was amazing! Super attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making Zulie comfortable and happy.

East Boston dog parents share their Rover experiences
Landy had such a great time with them and he quickly settled in with them (which was amazing because he is fairly anxious). They sent me lots of pictures and stayed in contact about how he was doing throughout his stay. They were super flexible with timing which was a huge help. Overall, they have been some of the best sitters I’ve had and I feel extremely comfortable leaving Landy with them. I will absolutely work with them again the next time I need to board my dog (I just hope that they will be available as they were the best sitters!)
Cricket couldn’t have been better cared for—and the evidence was in her smiling pics (of which there were many during our mutual vacations!) From the beginning of our communication, everything was seamless. I can’t recommend this great duo highly enough!!! If you don’t believe ME, just ask Cricket!!!! I think she can’t wait until her next visit!
Gianna and her family certainly get a 5 paw review from Neville and George! She welcomed our 2 large full of life Golden Retrievers into her home recently allowing us to vacation as a family stress free. She kindly greeted us every morning and afternoon with photos and updates letting us see just how much love and care they were receiving. She cared for them as if they were her own and we would 100% recommend and utilize her help in the future should we require the need.
Ruya is wonderful! Her and her husband are big animal lovers and you can see it right away. They have been so attentive with my dog and kept communication consistent and clear. My dog came back so peaceful and well taken care of. They sent videos and pictures throughout the stay and cuddled and played a lot with him- which is all a dog mum wants!
