“Erin house-sat for us when we needed a cat sitter for four days on short notice. She was amazing! Her connection to the kitties and thoughtful, conscientious approach to the care of our beloved companions set my mind at ease. It was clear from our first conversation that she was trustworthy and dependable, which was reassuring since we've never had a house-sitter. We have a senior cat who requires twice-daily medication and Erin handled all his special needs. She communicated clearly, left the house in excellent condition, and is also just a wonderful person all around!”
“Emily watched our dog Mouse for 16 days while we were halfway around the world. This was the longest we had ever been away from him and the farthest. We were a little nervous going into it but Emily made us feel so at ease. She sent updates every day usually multiple times a day. She would also tailor the timing of her updates to the timezone we were in which was much appreciated as well. We could tell Mouse was well taken care of and that she gave him a lot of love. We can’t wait to work with her again!”
“Alina was very responsive and followed my instructions without issues. My cat Mimi also rolled over to show her her belly which is a sign that she trusted her. Great experience.”
“Jessica was wonderful. First time we've had her come and stay with Boo overnight. She was so comfortable and assured with him that he took to her immediately. She stayed in touch by text, sent pics as well. Just an easy, lovely doggie-care experience.”
“I don’t think we could have possibly found a better sitter than Melissa. Our pup can be extremely shy, but Melissa worked with her through her stay and was eventually able to win her over. She was very communicative the entire time we were gone and gave us great piece of mind. Melissa definitely goes above and beyond, and we’re very grateful to have found her.”
About: I specialize in attentive, stress-free cat care, with a deep understanding of feline behavior and needs. I’ve also cared for dogs and know how to ensure they feel safe, seen, and comfortable. My calm presence and attention to detail set me apart when it comes to compassionate, reliable pet care. My schedule allows for catering to all of a pet's needs: feeding, grooming, walking, playing and enrichment, medication administration, etc. I can also do multiple drop-ins per day/extended drop-ins for pets that need company throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex, so I would not be able to host your pet in my home, but I have reliable transport at and would love to come to you!
“We are new to the area and hired Monica to house sit and watch our dog Penny. She offered to come meet us in person before booking, which was so generous. Monica was responsive, kind, and left us with so much confidence leaving her with our dog and home. She was flexible with arrival and departure time, sent us updates and photos, and we will continue to hire Monica again and again- what a gem!!!”
“Laianna was a wonderful sitter! She gave tons of updates, was attentive to any unique requests, and left my home and my pup in perfect condition when I returned. Such a gift to have peace of mind that your dog is in good hands - thanks!”
“Melissa sat with my dog Stella yesterday afternoon. She arrived on time, was loving and attentive to Stella and I felt totally confident that she would be able to handle any emergency that might arise. Also, Stella loved her! I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.”
“From the moment that I met Emily, I understood that her relationships with animals are deeply reciprocal. She is a patient and caring friend and enjoys the love that they offer in return. Emily stayed with my senior Boxer for 10 days at my home. She was a conscientious sitter -- taking perfect care of my home and of my pet. Knuckie typically experiences a few days of depression and hives when I leave but with Emily he was in good spirits, eating and in his normal routine. Honestly, he looked fantastic when I returned -- like he'd had a week at a spa. Emily's communication was perfect and she even went above and beyond to have a food order for us when our late flight arrived! I give Emily my highest recommendation!”
“Bre’ahna provided exceptional care for our three fur babies (two dogs and one cat). She stayed overnight at our home to comfort our dogs, who get scared by themselves, Our senior pup can be a lot to deal with because she needs extra support at her age, including 3x/day medication; Bre’ahna handled her special care needs with understanding and skill. When our other dog experienced mild diarrhea, Bre’ahna promptly communicated with us, ensuring he felt better quickly. We highly recommend her!”
“Katherine took our two rowdy boys totally in stride and made me feel totally confident that she had them safe and sound. Lovely pics and great communication. Would book again”

About: Reliable pet lover. I have three cats of my own and if they could talk they would tell you I’m timely with their feedings and give the best scritches in town!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15. I started by watching a neighbor's dogs almost every weekend while they went out - I would walk them, feed them & bathe them. I also have had my own dogs since I was a kid. Right now we have an adorable schnauzer mix that has yet to meet a dog she doesn't get along with! I'm currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets throughout the weekday & weekends. If you're interested, I'd be happy to take your dog on a hike for a longer walk/more exercise. Yes, I have a fenced in yard. When your dog is with me, I will treat them like my own and they will get loved on throughout their time with me.
“Ciprianna was Great! She even said the dogs behaved(which I know is probably not very true, LOL) and everything was in one piece, when we got home! Which is always a good indication that they had Fun were Happy! So Thank You Cipriana we will be calling you again! Dean”

“Tatiana was wonderful! She is such a caring individual and Ella and Zena love her! I absolutely recommend Tatiana. Thank you for taking care of our babies while we were away!”
Marissa S.
“Marissa is a reliable, trustworthy, kind, and competent pet sitter who brings total peace of mind whenever she watches our cat Molly, an elderly diabetic cat. Our cat needs her blood sugar checked twice daily and requires insulin by syringe. She also has a thyroid issue and needs medicine twice a day for this. In the past, due to her complicated medical needs, it was always nerve-wracking leaving her with other sitters, but since we've found Marissa, we just don't worry anymore. A Vet Tech, Marissa, has the knowledge and hands-on experience to comfortably take care of Molly. She's an excellent communicator, sending snapshots and updates daily. She's even offered to be on standby when we've had airplane delays and were afraid we wouldn't make it home on time for Molly's medication. On top of all these things, Marissa is also an animal lover through and through, which is obvious in each interaction with our Molly. I wholeheartedly recommend Marissa to care for your pet.”
Hila Y.
“Hila watched my dog Kira when we were out of town and took such good care of her. Kira had been sick and Hila nursed her and our apartment back to health. She is so responsive, sent pictures and updates the whole weekend, and made sure Kira was feeling better when we got back.”

East Kingston pet parents share their Rover experiences
Laura was able to come last-minute for a full afternoon and cared for both my new kitten and my cat that she’s met before. There was extra work keeping them separated and with different food requirements, so I appreciated Laura’s attention to both my kitties. Great pics as always, and they’re knocked out from a great play-date!
Wow! Wow wow! Gaby was the best companion Kevin could ask for in my absence. She took time to get to know him, listened to all my paranoid instructions, sent regular photos and updates, and left my house completely spotless. Most importantly, I came home to a completely well fed, well exercised super chill dog who seems to have had the best week ever!
Nicole stayed with our two French bulldogs while we were away for a long weekend. She did a wonderful job and kept us informed with updates throughout the stay. The boys were well taken care of, as was our house. We would definitely book with Nicole again in the future!
Melissa was a great dog sitter for our furry friends this past weekend. She was attentive to all of the various quirks and medical requirements of the dogs, and was thoughtful about time outside when the weather was poor. She also handled an unexpected indoor potty break very sensitively, even doing a load of laundry to make sure each dog had a comfortable place to sleep. I highly recommend Melissa and will definitely look to her first the next time I need a sitter.
Rima was amazing with our little Ozzie!!! It was almost like she could read his mind! She sent us a lot of videos so we could see how well he was doing. She is very communicative and lets you know quickly whether she can come and when she’s on her way. She left our house, nice and clean! We highly recommend Rima and we plan to use her services again and again! Thank you so much, Rima <3
This was our first time hiring Deborah to stay with our dogs and it certainly won’t be the last. It’s been a mixed bag when hiring dog sitters through Rover, but with Deborah’s great reviews we took a chance and were absolutely blown away. Deborah met with us beforehand to meet us and the dogs. She asked us lots of great questions and took thorough notes as we spoke. Then she met with us again the day before to go over everything once more. Her thoroughness and willingness to make sure our dogs were well cared for made us confident leaving them in her care. She sent us regular updates and photos while we were away and it was clear our dogs were very comfortable with her. She took them on walks multiple times a day, and was so attentive to their needs, making sure their schedule remained similar to how it is when we’re home. Then, upon our return, our house was just how we left it (maybe even a little cleaner!) and our dogs were so happy. Deciding to travel is hard for us because it’s so tough to find a good dog sitter, but we’re excited (and I know the dogs are as well) for the next time we have a trip so we can rehire Deborah. We were truly able to relax knowing our dogs were in her care!
Dina was so great! She made our dogs feel loved and cared for with treats and toys and really went above and beyond so they enjoyed their time together. She sent updates throughout the weekend and kept us informed about all of their activities. We will definitely use her again!
Melissa sat with my dog Stella yesterday afternoon. She arrived on time, was loving and attentive to Stella and I felt totally confident that she would be able to handle any emergency that might arise. Also, Stella loved her! I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.
