“This was my first time using Rover and my first time using Ann for my two 7-year-old kitties. Ann did an exceptional job. She showed up when she was supposed to and was very thorough and timely with her communication from beginning to end. I will use Ann again for sure! Thanks, Ann!!”
“Edith provided exceptional care for my two cats, Tofu and Miso, while we were away for the day. Tofu is skiddish, and she accommodated her at dinner time to make sure she had eaten. The video and pics were awesome and with the visit summary on the Rover card, she made me feel at ease.”
“Ruben was great!! He was on time, very nice, and took good care of my two dogs. This was my first time having a stranger walk my dog who is very reactive and I felt comfortable after meeting Ruben that he was very knowledgeable and could handle it. I would definitely book with him again!”
“Kayla was amazing ! Helped out last minute notice due to emergency life saver ! Would highly recommend ! Great notes and pictures and even helped cleaned up after very much appreciated !”
“Jaqueline was a great cat sitter for our cat while we were gone for a week. She sent consistent photos and updates, and took excellent care of our apartment and our cat. He seemed to really like her!! She even went above and beyond and watered my many, many plants 😁”
“10/10 recommend! Thank you for all your help Chris!”
About: I’ve owned dogs for just short of 10 years, small and medium. Providing friends and family with check ins and overnight doggy care during travel and long days away from home. I’m self employed and working from home allows me flexibility during the week to offer fun walks and check ins with your favorite furry friends! Your pups safety and wellness is my number one priority. I’m happy to follow specific instructions to make sure your pets needs are met. Im happy to walk on leash or harness, provide feedings and playtime and crating if necessary!
About: When I lived in Brazil, there was such a surplus of dogs in the area I was located and my family and I were the family on the block to rescue everyone we could. I drive special needs kids to/from school and at the moment I am blessed to have spots in my schedule between driving., therefore I free on hours where a lot of people are usually working. My apartment has a wash room special for dogs only. And dogs don’t pay rent at all. I’m around dogs and kids all day long!
“Did a great job while I was out of the country. Very grateful to Kiari”
“Erin was so fantastic and made me feel so at ease when caring for our girls. I cannot recommend her enough. Looking forward to having her drop in on our dogs again soon!”
About: I’ve spent three years as a veterinary assistant, and now a fur mom to a four year old American staffy and two cats. I’ve been taught and certified on animal care and handling. I currently am a tattoo apprentice in worcester, so being able to care for your pets in the mornings or afternoons isn’t a problem with a flexible schedule. Following instructions diligently but also caring for others pets as if they were my own and how I would expect mine to be loved and kept safe.
“Kaitlyn is a great dog walker! She is very easy to communicate with and quickly to respond. She handles my very energetic dog like a pro and I always trust he is in good hands with her!”
“Another wonderful week of cat care by Cassandra! So dependable, conscientious, and our granddaughter loves seeing the great photos Cassandra sends.”
“Gabriela was fantastic at cat sitting! She was very invested in learning about Rhea and her personality. Gabriela did a great job completing the tasks we’d left for her and she sent detailed summaries every visit. Gabriela even was able to engage Rhea into playing more than usual by crafting a toy. Would highly recommend Gabriela for any sort of pet sitting :)”
“Claire took the time to play with our cats and give thoughtful updates each day. She was thorough with questions beforehand and during, we would definitely have her as a catsitter again!”
About: I've had cats and dogs most of my life, and have had many other pets over the years. I used to volunteer at the local animal shelter, and in recent years, have started dog sitting for a pack of 4 giant dogs. I also have experience caring for pigeons, rabbits, frogs, and hamsters. I love all animals, even the slimy and slithery ones, and feel comfortable caring for any pet with proper instructions. I'm currently unemployed and have a lot of availability! I don't do much nowadays, and would love to spend some time with some cute animals. I prefer not to work Sundays and Mondays, however that is simply a preference and not set it stone. I have a lot of flexibility! I do not care for other pets in my own home, specifically because our cat is easily startled and I absolutely do not want to stress him out with unfamiliar animals! I'd be happy to care for your pets in your home. I can handle feeding, playtime, and administering some medications. I can also do shorter walks (under 15 mins)
“Derek got along great with Violet and was very easy to work with!”
About: Hello! My name is Clara and I adore dogs. I grew up with 2 rambunctious boxers and was heavily involved in their puppy training and continued care. I now have the sweetest, little beagle mix of my own who is a gentle senior. She loves spending time with other dogs and so this is no barrier to accepting other dogs into my apartment! I am a medical student and also have abundant experience as a medical assistant and home health aid. Caring for others - whether dogs or humans - is my biggest passion and skill. I hope you give me the joy of caring for your dog! I’m a medical student so in general, drop in visits and walks work best for me on the weekends or at nighttime! However, I do have an ever changing schedule so please inquire for more information. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but am also happy to let them roam free if that is their preference. Your dog will always be leashed when I take them outside my apartment for walks. I love to take dogs out frequently (every 0-2 hours), so they get lots of outdoors time and stimulation! I also love playing games like tug of war. I truly have a very flexible schedule and can adapt to what your pet needs!
“Thank you!”
About: I have taken care of my sisters Boxer and house anytime she took a vacation. I was the first person she would call on. I took care of my own English bulldog from 2 weeks old up until the day she passed. We were together every day and I took care of her like a child. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pup. I am available 7 days a week after 1pm. I have my own place and can keep your fur baby crated here if need be. I have plenty of treats and toys to keep them having fun.
