“Samiksha took such great care of Togo during his stay! She sent us lots of photos and regular updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Togo was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We really enjoyed having Samiksha look after him and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”

“My wife and I have used Yasmines services twice. She is amazing with our Rocky, from communication to care Yasmine is on top of it. In addition to the amazing photos she sends us while we are away. Our Rocky loves her and is always upset to leave. Yasmine will definitely be the first person we contact when we need a sitter.”


“Nainika was so kind and patient with Bailey, and she is obviously a big dog lover! Even though Bailey had some tummy issues, he was well taken care of and was really happy staying with Nainika.”


About: As a lifelong animal lover I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes and I absolutely adore them! No matter what, all pets deserve to have a great and adventure filled day and I’m happy to help when you’re busy or plans change. I will always put your dog first when it comes to safety and enjoyment having been trained and years of taking care of our own family dog. My number one priority is to make sure your pup is happy and safe! I love to play, excercise, walk or just hand with them whatever their needs may be. I am WFH with a very flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to care for your babies whether for a walk or to pet sit. They will get all the care required anytime they are in my supervision which includes lots of fun and activities! I have a designated dog patio in my building along with a very secured home. I also have the space for a crate if that is desired for pet owners. I’m also in the heart of Boston and can take them on many walks to and from the Boston Common
“Maria Luiza & Mac were so great with our one year old golden retriever pup! Maria sent multiple updates with photos each day and you could just tell they loved our dog as if he was their own. They were also so flexible with drop off and pick up. We’ll definitely use them again!”

“Anh is fabulous. Prompt with communication and goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is happy with her. She sends the cutest pictures and videos throughout the stay. I am definitely choosing her next time I am out of town to take care of my dog. P.S. her dog Bubbles is an absolute delight and my dog loves Bubbles.”

“Jason is the absolute best!!! He and his partner took such great care of our pups and were communicating constantly. They treated our kids like their own and took them for walks and runs all the time. They sent many pictures every day and kept us updated on how they were doing. Would 100% recommend!!”


“Svetlana was absolutely amazing watching my dog for 4 days. He is a VERY high energy dog, and I am particular about who I leave him with and I’d recommend her to anyone. She was really wonderful at sending pictures/video updates and keeping in communication with me in a timely manner. Sammy was so tired when I picked him up and I can tell he enjoyed staying with her!”

“Alex is the best! My dog has been sick and Alex took good care of her and was attentive. My dog was on meds & she made sure she took her pills. Strongly recommend Alex!”

“Paige is wonderful and takes great care of Minnie. She provides lots of updates and photos daily, takes her for long walks multiple times a day, and ensures she eats well. I trust Minnie with Paige and that is why I've rebooked her for my recent trip, knowing she will be well taken care of.”

“Could not be happier with the professionalism and courtesy Arron showed my little puppy. He helped out a lot while I had some serious issues with another sitter (and I was out of the country). Would highly recommend him to anyone!”

“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!”

“It was clear that our dog was in excellent hands! Ilya was dedicated to providing tons of exercise in the parks nearby, and giving us detailed, routine updates on how the days were going. What sets Ilyad apart is his commitment to communication – these regular, detailed updates put our minds at ease and let us know our dog was thriving. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a reliable and responsible caretaker for our 2 year old Whippet, we can't recommend him highly enough! Chelsey & Dan”

“Natalie is phenomenal!!! She took such great care of Teddy. Her communication was outstanding, sending pictures and texts throughout the day. Such a sweet and kind person that you will feel so comfortable leaving your dog with.”

“Wow, we are so happy to have found Irina to take care of our Charlie. My husband and I were so impressed with the level of care she provides, as well as sending photos and videos showing us how well Charlie was doing. We have used a lot of carers on Rover and I have to say that Irina has been by far the best. Thank you so much Irina you are the best!”

“My pup Lyla had a fantastic stay with Yick-Hong and his wife for a week! All the pictures they sent me she looked so happy and relaxed. She even was sleeping on her back because she was so comfortable (vulnerable position for dogs). They took her on walks to new areas which she loves and even ran with her because they could tell she enjoyed it. They also provided detailed daily updates and were responsive to any messages I sent. I will definitely have Lyla stay with them again!”

“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.”

“Karina was great! She took excellent care of our Kingsley and shared the most adorable pics. He thoroughly enjoyed his time with her and especially the park. Will definitely book with Karina again and highly recommend her service.”

K is amazing! My dog Sidon had his own vacation while I had mine. She is very caring and everytime she sent me the pictures of Sidon, he was so happy. She is also very thoughtful - she asked thorough questions in advance to accommodate the need of Sidon. Highly recommend!

Anh is a wonderful, caring dog sitter! She watched our new puppy for the weekend and she was fantastic with him. We got frequent updates, pictures, and videos, and he clearly loved his time with her when we picked him up. We were so grateful for the peace of mind that having Anh watch Iggy gave us, and will definitely trust her to watch our sweet boy again and again.

Julie was amazing . We left our doggies to be boarded with her . We got daily updates and multiple photos in a day. Sonny and Burt ( our fur babies ) were well taken care of and she made them feel at home by accommodating their needs. I had a stress free vacation thanks to Julie
Natasha and Kishan did an amazing job taking care of Nutella! They sent pictures every day, and it was clear she had a wonderful time with them. I always feel at ease knowing Nutella is in their care because they treat her like their own. Thank you for taking such great care of her!

Alan & Ying were wonderful, attentive, and took such great care of Charli while we were away! ❤️ We especially appreciated the daily photos and videos, along with the extra attention they gave to cleaning her eyes. Charli seemed so happy, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands — we truly appreciate everything and would highly recommend Alan & Ying and plan on using them again!

Emma was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my dog, Bobby. Even though it was my first time using Rover, she immediately made me feel comfortable that Bobby was in good hands. Emma was very organized with scheduling and logistics, attentive to Bobby’s schedule and habits, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. She sent me updates and photos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Bobby had a great weekend with Emma and already misses her!

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
