“Debra was scheduled to walk my dog 4 days one week while I was away and due to bad weather we canceled 2 of the days. She was flexible with scheduling a meet and greet, very communicative all week when some hiccups arose, and very loving to my dog. I’m booking her again asap!”
About: 🐶Both Noah and I (Jadeth) grew up with dogs in the home from childhood to adulthood! We both have experience with various different breeds from chihuahua, pitbulls, australian shepherds, and huskies! Each of the dogs we cared for had different levels of energy and ages from puppy to senior. 💕I love the pure love and kindness that dogs show towards people! And it is a joy to get to cuddle and hang out with them! -Jadeth 💕My favorite thing about dogs is that no matter what, when you need them they’ll be there. -Noah ⭐️We both have experience with administering medications, managing special diets, and providing care for cats as well! We are both online college students with a ton of extra time to care for your furry friend! *Noah is currently traveling a bit for work, so his availability for house sittings and drop-ins are limited, but please send a message to see if he is in town!* Drop-In Visits: We offer drop-in visits every day of the week!

“Morgan and Meaghan were great! They were very easy to work with. On top of that, they were very flexible with our last minute request. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a good dog sitter.”
“Mirabel is always so good with our dog! She’s highly reliable and clearly loves working with animals. Her constant communication is excellent as well. I’ll always recommend her!”
About: Hello, my name is Stacy and I’m 34 years old. I joined Rover because I love spending time with pets but I’m not in a position to have my own. Since having joined Rover, I’ve worked with reactive dogs, puppies a couple of weeks old, intact dogs and dogs having undergone surgery. I’ve also either pet sat or lived with Labrador Retrievers, Pugs, Poodles, Chihuahuas, Old English Bulldogs, Shih Tzus, Schnauzers, Irish Wolfhounds, Pitbulls, German Shepherds, Great Danes and others. This is aside from the cats, reptiles and tarantulas I’ve either sat for or interacted with. As of April 2026, my longest stay (over two weeks) has been for a dog with cancer. It’s been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I’m available to sit, do drop-ins and walks every day of the week. I’m a small business owner in a separate industry and grateful for the flexibility. I do not bring guests of any kind to client’s homes. It is fine if clients have service workers such as house cleaners entering the home, as long as I am made aware of the time of their arrival. I generally do not wear shoes in people’s houses and I always clean up after myself if staying for several hours or more. I may bring house slippers to wear inside based on the circumstances. I am slightly anemic so I ask that you keep your place at a reasonable temperature. You may also provide a few blankets.
“AMAZING. If you need someone reliable and that goes beyond this is your sitter. She picked up my request last minute. Ann-Marie provide detailed reviews. She took out my girl to parks and different locations. I 100% recommended Ann-Marie and I will be rebooking with her when I need someone to watch Kilala.”
“Megan did a great job and was very communicative and flexible when I was needing Samuel to be walked. Love that she took time to get pictures and seemed to enjoy time with Samuel!”
About: I have taken care of various breeds of dogs and cats including walking, feeding, providing medications, cleaning up after, and playing with animals of all ages. I work from home with a flexible schedule and can be available to check cats on or walk pups throughout the day. Also available early mornings or late evening. I am very careful and take time to familiarize myself with each pets homes, surroundings, and supplies such as collars, leashes, doors, and gates to ensure safety while at home or on walks.
“Angelina was great with our dogs and I was nervous at first because of our breed of the 2 dogs and the size of our bigger dog most people are afraid of pits or are not to fond of them but she handled it very well. Did everything she was supposed to plus more. She was super kind and patient and our dogs loved her instantly. She provided great communication also. I wouldn’t know what we would have done without her while we were out of town but she gave me some relief. This was my first time and experience with the app and I loved it. I would rebook Angelina if I ever need assistance with Brick and Yola again. No matter the height or weight of a dog it didn’t scare her off , nor the excessive barking at times and the fact they love to jump on people lol. She was genuine and loved every moment from my understanding.”

“Viktoriia is a wonderful and very caring dog walker! She walks my small shihtzu / yorkie every week. Viktoriia is always on time, incredibly thoughtful, goes the extra mile to make sure my dog is cared for and will always ask questions if she’s not sure about something. If you’re looking for a consistent and all round fantastic dog walker, Viktoriia is it! I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, like my family dalmatian Tucker and Rottie Bear, and cats like my bonded pair of childhood cats, since I was born and am a huge animal lover. I am the mother to my Cat Chica, who is a sassy dilute calico girl and our dog Benji, a silly energetic chihuahua min pin. Before moving to Boston, I fostered over 40 kittens and 8 dogs through the humane society of Tampa Bay. I also was a full-time nanny during grad school where I often watched family pets while my nanny family’s vacationed. My nickname is literally Catie Cat :) I currently work part-time (4 days a week) and am available for long weekend sitting or stays in the morning, afternoon, and evening! I’d love to help you out! I’d love to show your dog the JP pond if allowed! For walks, I am familiar with the JP and Brookline area so I can be sure to take your pets around to all the spots safely! In your home, as a former full-time nanny, I understand the importance of keeping routine and making sure to follow rules and safety with your pets! In your home- I will follow your pets daily routine and provide as much love and safety as I can while you’re away! For boarding, our pets have free rein of the home, sleep with us, and get treats as they want so i’m happy to treat yours like family! If not though, animals can be crated.
“Zarah was very responsive and considerate. I appreciated all of the information she collected during our initial conversations, so she could plan appropriately around our dog’s needs. We’ll definitely use her services again!”
“Katie has been great with Riker. He's young and has quite a bit of energy, but he's much calmer when we get home thanks to his mid-day walk/playtime with Katie. She lets me know if he got into anything while we were away or if his bathroom habits seem to change. I'm continually rebooking her!”

If you’re looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter, Cynthia is the one! She helped me out when I was in a tight scheduling situation and was able to fit me in on short notice. Milo was a little grumpy at first because he hadn’t seen her in a while, but Cynthia was patient, understanding, and somehow won him over. She handled everything with care and professionalism. She even came back the next day to walk Milo for me, which I greatly appreciated. I am so grateful for Cynthia’s services and the peace of mind she provided. She is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the pets she works with. I will absolutely continue to use her services in the future. Highly recommend! 😘
I the MOST wonderful experience with Kaylee. She was amazing, highly communicative, and truly went above and beyond in caring for my dog who struggles with separation anxiety. She was attentive, patient, and proactive in managing my dog’s needs which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She was a true lifesaver. I would highly recommend Kaylee to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would have loved to continue working with her long term if she wasn’t moving to a different state, and I would do so in a heartbeat.
Kira was amazing! She helped me out on very short notice, and I couldn’t be more grateful. It was a hot day, and she made sure Bebe was comfortable and okay before leaving my house. I highly recommend her, and I’ll definitely be reaching out again whenever I need someone to walk Bebe! 🐾
Maddy was amazing! She was so sweet and gentle with our nervous dog. Arrived on time, took him to all his favorite spots, and sent lots of pictures. Her communication was great throughout! We felt so relaxed knowing she was taking care of our dog! Absolutely will ask her to come by again!
