“Nalix is probably the most experienced sitter that Elly has ever stayed with. She knew exactly how to handle Elly as she got adjusted to the apartment and when she showed some exhibits of resource guarding. Her apartment has a nice fenced in area outside for easy access to fetch at any point in the day. I would 100% ask Nalix to watch Elly again.”
“Our pups had a great stay with Mike and his family! Communication was excellent, we received regular updates & photos, and Mike was sure to reach out if anything came up. We would not hesitate to have our girls stay with wonderful Mike again and are grateful for his care!”
“Kaitlyn is great! She was very kind and patient when working with my very anxious pup, communicating often and putting my mind at ease. My dog had a great stay.”
“Dohwee made my dog feel so at home and made me feel so at ease with continuous updates throughout the day and along with pictures. I would recommend. Dohwee 10 out of 10 time!! I was at first time user and my dog has separation anxiety, but my dog fell right at home.”
“Chanel was very responsive and sent lots of photos throughout the weekend. Making sure I knew the dogs were happy! The dogs came back so happy from our trip and that was so great to see!”
“Rebecca took great care of my dog during a weekend trip. I know he got plenty of exercise and love because he came home tired in the best way possible. Thank you!”
“Michelle was fantastic! We were lucky she was available to take care of our dog for an extended weekend. Tito came back home a happy pup! We would happily book again.”
“Nathaniel was awesome and my dog was so happy with him. He took my dog hiking, swimming and outdoor events. Thanks for being so affordable yet a high quality dog sitter 🙏. He also sent us many pics and updates.”
“Anastasia did an amazing job caring for our dog, Bella. She asked the right questions, communicated effectively and we could tell Bella had a great time :) Thank you again!”
“The greatest pet sitter who ever lived! My corgi was SO well cared for and clearly had the best time. I got delightful updates and cute pictures galore while I was away. Entrust this man with your pet, you won’t regret it :)”
“Amy was THE BEST!!! Super warm and friendly, very responsive and communicative. She made it all so easy and she clearly took such good care of our mini golden doodle Rory. And Rory also loved playing with her dog Bumi. She also we great about sending photos of their walks and hikes and adventures. We are so grateful for Amy and her help!!!”
“We feel so fortunate to have found Laura! Our 15 year old labradoodle is a good old man but he needs different care than a younger dog. Laura sent us daily updates and took such great care of our Henry. Would highly recommend Laura as a kind and compassionate caregiver!”
“I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Rita was absolutely perfect! She was exceptional with my dog, creating a truly special bond with him from the very beginning. It was clear that Tibet became very attached to her, and that made all the difference for me. I really appreciated her flexibility, her thoughtful daily updates, and the wonderful photos she shared, all delivered with a warm, friendly, and natural attitude that made everything feel easy and reassuring. I certainly recommend Rita to anyone looking for a truly outstanding dog sitter. She’s not just good, she’s the kind of person every dog (and dog owner) hopes to find!”
“Miranda was a great caregiver to our 2 dogs. She was communicative throughout the stay and very responsive. Dogs seemed comfortable from the start! Thanks for your care, Miranda!”
“Peter was an amazing sitter! He was super accommodating and responsive, and even went out of his way to make sure our plans still worked out when he was dealing with the crazy airline IT outage. We would highly recommend him and plan to contact him again for future stays!”
“Megan was wonderful throughout the entire process. We got picture updates every day and he was absolutely loving all the walks and cuddles. Absolutely would recommend.”
About: I have taken care of friends' pets when they go on holidays. I am ok with well behaved dogs and cats, and I love giving them care and attention. I had an Alsatian (best in the world) when I was a teenager. Taking care of pets comes very naturally to me. I am not qualified to train them, however. I am building my own business, and I pretty flexible mornings and afternoons/nights as I work from home in East Boston waterfront. I love taking dogs to the waterfront dog park, if the dog loves playing with other dogs. I would be happy to follow your recommendations and rules when caring for your pet. I Iive in an apartment, and can do 3 walks per day in the beautiful East Boston waterfront.

East Boston pet parents share their Rover experiences
Catherine stepped in relatively last minute for a 2-week stay when another sitter canceled and she was great! She came to go over everything before we left, had good communication while we were away, left our home neat and clean, and most importantly our pup seemed to love her. We’re very grateful she stepped in!
I found my self in a bind finding a sitter for Astro on short notice, contacted Desjohn in the late evening and he messaged me the next morning offering to sit Astro if I still needed a sitter and I did so I immediately accepted his offer! Astro loved his time with Desjohn and he provided great communication and was extremely responsive and made sure he knew how to care best for Astro. I’d definitely use Desjohn in the future.
Blair was willing to meet up for a quick meet and greet prior and immediately I felt safe leaving my fur baby with her. She also had great communication through out booking, leading up to and during the stay. I’m glad to have found a reliable sitter and will definitely be booking with Blair again.
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!)
