“My GSD is very clingy and I'm always worried leaving her for a week, but she LOVED Ralph. They went on walks, played constantly, and I received pictures the whole time. I think she still misses him. I hope I don't have to leave her soon, but if I do, she's going back to see Ralph.”

“Matt is absolutely amazing. He really took care of my dog during the 40 days we were away. He sent pics and videos daily and he's really responsive to questions and requests. My dog had a good time with Matt. I would definitely recommend Matt to anyone who needs boarding service.”

“Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly. Coming home, I could tell my dog had been not only well taken care of but genuinely loved. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Thank you, Angelina!”

“Phillip took such great care of our energetic dog Moose! He made sure all the dogs got along well and his fenced in yard is perfect for dogs who love to play. We would trust bringing Moose back at any time and are really lucky to have found Phillip so we could feel comfortable with a weekend away knowing Moose was having so much fun!”

“Was very communicative and great with my dog. Took blue on multiple runs and hour long walks, which really helps her when she’s feeling anxious away from home. Would definitely recommend.”

“Alison was responsive and thoughtful. She agreed to sit our utterly over-exuberant 14-month-old black Lab and we were so concerned that Alison’s family would be overwhelmed. Instead, she sent encouraging notes and exercised our dog extensively, so that she returned home relaxed. We really could not have asked for a better situation. Great people, a terrific fenced back yard, and good communication. Hard to beat that.”

“Bojack loved staying with Kourtney! He is a fourteen years old. I like that Kourtney has a background in veterinary medicine. Not only did that make me trust her with his daily meds, it was nice knowing that there was a trained eye on him. Bojack is overly bonded to me to the point that he often sits by the window waiting for me to return when I go out. The biggest compliment to Kourtney's care is that when we picked him up, he greeted me with enthusiasm but not anywhere near the crazy welcome I usually get, AND he kept looking back at Kourtney as if he was unsure whether he wanted to leave! We will definitely have her watch him again.”

“Shankar and his family were accommodating with our dog’s needs and took great care of him. We truly appreciated him keeping us well informed of everything that went on each day and sending plenty of pictures. We would definitely love to board with him again in the future!”

“Adriana and her whole family was very accommodating and patient with our dog who gets separation anxiety. She kept me updated frequently with pictures and texts. I would use Adriana again and would recommend her. Thank you!”
“My dog Miko seems to have enjoyed his stay at Sara's place. He came back all relaxed, complete opposite experience of leaving him in a pet hotel where he came back agitated for many days. Sara's place is perfect with a big fenced garden so he could play freely with her dog and others. I can only recommend her.”

“Lucille hosted Kona for a week while we were away and it went wonderfully! We received daily updates and pictures of Kona so we could always see and know what she was up to. Lucille kept Kona busy with daily walks and fetch which are Kona’s favorites! We really appreciated Lucille’s attention to detail with wanting to know and follow Kona’s usual routines to help her feel comfortable. Kona has some medical needs which always makes leaving her with a sitter a bit anxiety provoking but Lucille made us feel at ease with her communication around medications as well. We very much appreciate Lucille’s care for Kona and already have a few more upcoming stays booked with her! Kona has found a new friend for sure!”

About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently unemployed so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm available for petsitting any day of the week and can work around any personal appointments. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”

“Alberta watched our 2 bunnies for a weekend and we were so lucky to have found her! She definitely knows her stuff/how to take care of small animals and their unique needs and personalities. She sent us photo updates of them, which was great! It was so nice to have peace of mind on our trip, knowing our buns were in great hands. Everything was packed up and ready to go at the set pick up time. I would highly recommend her for any small pet! Thank you!!!”

“Ashton was amazing!! I could tell my dogs got lots of love and they enjoyed their stay. Not only was Ashton available and accommodating for our last-minute request, but he was communicative and put my mind at ease about leaving my big goof balls for the weekend. Will definitely be using Ashton and family again!”

“Cherie was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and for my new dog I had only had for two months, so I was uncertain about the whole process. Cherie was very responsive and easy to work with. My dog isn’t the easiest dog ever but Cherie managed her well. With the big fenced in backyard and other dog friends to play with, I wasn’t sure my dog waned to leave at the end!! Highly recommend. Almost forgot- we had a few travel hiccups coming back and Cherie was really understanding and we were able to book an extra night. Five stars!”

“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”
