About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (16 and 9) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!
“Can’t say enough great things about Balaji and his wife, & let’s not forget their sweet furry child, Mocha! Who has become such a best friend to our Penny. We are incredibly happy with their hosting of our doodle. Their communication, updates (pics/vidoes) is truly incredible! They are understanding with work schedules and do their utmost to accommodate. I also really appreciate all of the walks that Penny enjoys with Mocha! Huge benefit to her health. Thank you again! Excited for next time!”
About: Hi! I’m a caring and reliable dog walker and sitter with a deep love for animals and hands-on experience as a proud pet parent to my sweet 9-year-old Maltipoo. I treat every dog like my own—with patience, love, and lots of tail-wagging fun. Whether your pup needs a daily walk or a cozy home while you’re away, you can count on me for safe, personalized care. I’m here to give your furry friend the attention and care they deserve. Safety, comfort, and tail wags guaranteed! I work from home, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pup! I’m available for dog walks any day between 10 AM and 9 PM, and I also offer boarding any day of the week. Whether your dog needs a midday walk or a cozy place to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered with lots of attention, playtime, and love. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac, perfect for calm walks. Dogs are always kept on-leash outside, and I take them to fenced-in parks for safe playtime. At home, they get a clean, cozy space with lots of care and supervision.

“Deidre was fantastic! Will definitely use again when we’re in town next! At drop off, my dogs were comfortable with her right away and at pick up my dogs came home tired and happy! Thank you!”
“So thankful for Prithvi and her husband! They were so wonderful and patient with our puppy who still has a lot of energy and is shy around new people. I feel so comfortable with her in their care, and they sent lots of photos and videos. Their dog also showed my dog the ropes, and was great for her!”
About: I just graduated from UMass Amherst with a degree in Pre-Veterinary Science. I have grown up with pets and taken care of them for years! I’ve had dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish! I have a lot of experience taking care of animals as I’ve interned at a zoo and volunteered at shelters and vet clinics. I’m very comfortable giving medications to pets as I’ve had a lot of practice with this with my own pets and while sitting! PLEASE READ** I am currently traveling in Europe and will not be home until October 10th. I am available after that for meet and greets or I can do virtual meet and greets as well! I am looking to move states in the coming months so I will not be available for long term sitting. My house has one kitten, and my backyard is not fenced in. I’d love to take care of your pet in either your home or mine, whichever is easiest!

Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

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.
