“Joseiris is a wonderful sitter. She is caring, attentive, and thorough on her visits. She sent us many pictures of both of our cats each day, along with a great write up of the time she spent with them. She clearly has a natural connection with cats, and was even able to get our shy cat, Tini to come out and play with her and sit on her lap. We were gone for almost two weeks and our minds were totally at ease knowing that Joseiris was coming by each day.”
“I had Molly come to the house a few times during this past week and Molly was wonderful with Benny, she arrived on time, follow my directions with Benny, left me detailed messages about the visits. I had a weird schedule and she was able to accommodate us. We really appreciate it! And I also got lots of pictures, This was my first time using Rover we’re grateful for Molly, I will definitely have her services again.”
About: Hi there! I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I'm 28 years old and have spent my entire life caring for pets, from from raising playful puppies and kittens to supporting them through their senior years. That lifelong experience has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to both pets and their owners. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires a great deal of trust (from personal experience), so I make communication a priority. You can expect regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I'm happy to adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I'm patient with young pets who are still learning, gentle with senior pets who may need extra time and attention, and committed to treating every animal with the same love and respect I would give my own. I'm also preparing to move to London to begin graduate school in the fall as well, which means I have a flexible schedule over the next few months. I'm excited to use this time caring for pets, meeting wonderful families, and providing dependable, loving care whenever you need an extra helping hand. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and love and for you to feel completely confident that they're in good hands. Pet care is something I intentionally make time for in my schedule. Since I'm preparing to move to London for graduate school, I have a flexible routine over the next few months that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. Whether your pet needs an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or evening companionship, I'm happy to work with your schedule. I believe consistency is important, so I'll do my best to maintain your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable, happy, and at ease while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I know that every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal schedule, so I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household routines. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I'll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and outdoor time, and always prioritize their safety. I also understand that every animal has different comfort levels, so I'll take the time to earn their trust and let them interact at their own pace. Communication is an important part of my care. I'll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention while you're away.
“We highly recommend Mary Elizabeth! Our sweet, elder dog was comfortable and happy in her care. Marybeth took the time to get to know our dog prior to their first visit. She wrote things down and was communicative and responsive. Marybeth is trustworthy and although we don’t want to share her, we know she will do the same for your sweet pet!”
“Debbie took excellent care of our senior diabetic cat while we were away for the long weekend. She kept our house clean and had great communication. We will absolutely use her again for future trips!”
“Great job as always! Our cat Mickey loves the Brendon! This was our second time hiring Brendon. He does a fantastic job. We highly recommend him for your cat sitting needs. He’s our go-to guy.”
“Isabella did a great job feeding our kitties while my husband and I were out of state on separate work trips. She was easy to coordinate with and accommodated our unplanned schedule change without issue. I love that she sent pictures every morning and evening and made sure to get both cats :3”
“Samantha was super communicative during our week away. One of our dogs is a senior and I was hesitant to leave her with her mobility issues but Samantha kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. Our dogs did not seem stressed upon our return as they had consistent company with Samantha. I highly recommend her services!”

I care for the animals of my clients in my home as well as their home by treating them as if they were my very own. I provide them with the necessities they need and make sure they have the attention they need as well.
“Brittany’s amazing and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my cats were in great care! She took the time to go out of her way and stop over for a meet and greet before we left which made me feel at ease. Great communication and sent pictures of our cats snuggling up. One of my cats is shy to warm up to new people but she truly is an animal whisperer and he was laying down right by her feet the second he met her! Thanks Brittany!”
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, turtles and fish. I would dogsit for my neighbor from a young age, this included when they got old and had special food needs and the need for frequent bathroom visits, which I also cleaned up when needed. With my own dogs, I grew up caring for them and taking them for walks throughout the day. I enjoy playing with both cats and dogs, and getting the extra exercise! I am mainly interested in providing boarding and walks. I work full-time during the week but in the evenings and on weekends, I have the ability to provide plenty of attention, frequent walks and feed on a timely basis. I have a fenced yard with space for them to roam or run, crate and toys available for your pets. Smoke free home. Safe neighborhood. Close to parks and walkable areas.
“Breighanna is very thorough & keeps in good contact which we loved-it's great to get updates on your cats while you're away. Our cats required meds in the a.m. & p.m. and she handled it seamlessly! She really went above & beyond by taking time to play and making sure each cat was engaged! Would recommend her to anyone booking, this is someone with a true passion for detail and care with animals!”
“Molly came for a meet and greet before her visit. My girls loved her! When she checked in she send me updates and pics...gave me complete peace of mind. I would definitely use Molly again?”
“Ayana has a wonderful spirit and was wonderful with our cat Lumi. He’s very needy, and I was worried about leaving him with a sitter because we had a bad experience in the past that left him pretty traumatized, but Ayana was so good to him and attentive to his needs that he barely noticed we were gone! I am so grateful, and definitely will be booking again. She gave me peace of mind that my boy is good hands, not to mention she also fed the fish and watered the plants. Thank you so much Ayana!!”
About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!) My schedule is very flexible and I'm available for couch snuggles, energetic playdates, and walkies. My furry companions have other members of the family to care for them at home if I'm pet-sitting overnight. I can drop-in your place, go for walks, stay overnight, give your cat snuggles, or (with your approval) bring your pup(s) to my large fenced-in backyard!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Longmeadow
Russ and Janet took wonderful care of our two cats. They made daily visits to give them some social time along with feeding and litter box checks. They were even trusted enough by our shy girl for her to show herself to them, something she typically doesn’t do with people new to her. We will happily hire Russ and Janet again and fully recommend them to others!

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.
