“Melodi is amazing! 2nd time we leave Ron with her and he could not have had a better time. She does not only take care of him amazingly well but also keeps us updated and sends a ton of pictures, which we appreciate! Melodi is definitely our go-to person whenever we need to leave Ron do to travel or work!”

Matias was very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and I appreciated that he offered to have a meet and greet before her stay.”

About: I have two years of experience working at a dog shelter in Bolivia, where I helped care for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve also grown up with dogs at home, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I love spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’ve even taught my own dogs different tricks, so I’m very patient and enjoy working with dogs and helping them learn. Now that I’m living in Boston, I’d love to help other dog owners care for their pups and treat them like my own! My schedule is very flexible outside of classes. I have classes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 4–10 PM, but I’m available before those times and have much more flexibility on Tuesdays, Fridays, and weekends. I especially enjoy weekend pet sitting because I can spend plenty of time with your dog and give them the attention, walks, playtime, and company they need. I live in a cozy, clean apartment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise and fresh air with regular walks around the city and Boston Common. I always follow each owner’s routine and instructions, keep dogs safely leashed outside, and make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and affection while they’re with me.
“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”
“First time boarding with Maryah. She took excellent care of our 2 dogs and was very accommodating when we had to extend the boarding due to a family emergency. Would highly recommend and board with again! Thank you Maryah!”

“This was the first time I’ve left Lulu with anyone other than family. What a truly wonderful experience. Angella was profaned sent so many photos. My family felt so comfortable and we’re really able to enjoy our vacation.”
“Ashley and family made my pup welcome in their home. Her two dogs were so chill and made space for my guy, who was easily 10 times their weight. I appreciated Ashley’s flexibility with scheduling and her easygoing approach.”

“My husky Ouji had a wonderful time with Josiah and Arlene. I received all the updates I needed to feel reassured during my trip out of town, and Josiah did that in video format too which I especially appreciated. 5/5 would recommend - will definitely board with them again”
“Pluto had an amazing time with Ruya and Aybark! I was nervous to leave him in boarding as he has separation anxiety, but they took such good care of him and made him feel at ease. It was also very easy to keep in touch and they sent pictures of him throughout his stay. Overall, a great experience!”
“Luke is amazing! This was our third time leaving our pup Peanut with Luke and Peanut had a great time. Luke took Peanut on a winter hike and cared for him so well. We are grateful that Luke was available given how much our pup loves staying at Luke’s. Our pup literally ran to Luke when we dropped him off :) thanks again Luke for taking such good care of Peanut and for sending regular updates :)”
“Zach was very responsive and easy to communicate with before and during our dog’s stay with him. He sent us photos regularly. Our dog was excited to see him again, which is always a good sign he had a good time!”
“Jessica and Amie did an excellent job with caring for my dog Sydney while I was out of town for a weekend trip! They have a very genuine love and respect for dogs and Syd connected with them right away. I know that she felt safe in their home and got all the care and attention that she needed. Would definitely book with them again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Malden
We had a wonderful experience with Christian! He was caring, kind, and attentive throughout the entire week our puppy stayed with him. Unfortunately, our puppy got sick and needed a visit to the vet, which was a very stressful time for us. Christian went above and beyond to help us through the situation and made sure Kallie received the care she needed and was doing well. The communication was excellent, keeping us informed and giving us peace of mind during such a difficult moment. We are truly grateful for his kindness, patience, and dedication, not only in caring for our puppy but also in supporting us through a tough time. It meant so much to know she was in such caring hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter!
Tiffany took SUCH great care of our puppy. We dropped off our very energetic 8 month old with Tiffany for a weekend while we went out of town and we knew our pup was in great hands. This was our first time leaving her with a sitter so we were unsure what to expect. Tiffany made us feel so confident and comfy and sent lots of pics. She clearly knows what she’s doing and truly loves dogs.
The care that Shriya and her husband Shay gave our cats was absolutely outstanding. They went above and beyond to make sure our cats were loved and well-cared for during their 7-week stay with them. The communication was very clear and we received lots of photos and info about our cats, Shriya was always responsive and helpful, and all of their help really made the complicated travel arrangements to Spain much easier. We are extremely grateful for all of their help, and especially all of the love that our cats got. It was clear when we picked them up that they received just as much love and kindness during those 7 weeks as they were used to receiving from us. We recommend them without reservation, you will have the highest level of care for your pets!
She was amazing with my 4-month-old puppy! Her communication was great, she kept me updated, and I felt comfortable knowing my puppy was in good hands. She was reliable, caring, and made the whole experience stress-free. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter! ❤️
Fernanda took such good care of our pup. This was our first time leaving him with a sitter for multiple days. She did everything to make us feel at ease. She sent regular updates with pictures and videos, she took our dog to the dog park to play and she spent plenty of time playing with him at her place too. Our pup had a great time with her, I think he was sad to come back to us 😂 we would highly recommend Fernanda to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Hunter took great care of my dog Maizie while he was in her care for 2.5 weeks. She is very communicative and provided frequent updates on Maizie. Maizie had a great time and enjoyed playing with her dogs as well! I would use Hunter again for future boarding and I would also recommend Hunter to any one looking for any dog services!
We recently traveled to Italy and left or dog Nellie with Linda. Nellie has stayed with Linda prior to this visit so when we arrived Nellie was quite excited to see her which tells us that she is happy at Linda’s home. This definitely helps us to not feel so guilty about leaving her. Everyday Linda checked in with us on how things were going with Nellie, she included both photos and a note. Linda is a very kind and caring person, we feel very grateful and lucky to have her in our lives. Thank you Linda!
Oxana was absolutely amazing with Yuki! She kept me updated throughout his entire stay and sent me pictures all the time, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was comfortable and being well taken care of. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding, especially with pickup, and I really appreciated how accommodating she was. Everything was also left very clean and well taken care of, which I really appreciated. You can truly tell she cares about the pets she watches. I felt completely comfortable leaving Yuki with her and would 100% book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy, communicative, and reliable. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my baby! It was a pleasure having you take care of Yuki, I know he will miss you so much! ❤️🐾
Kamila was terrific! She took such great care of our dog Gronk that he was sad to leave when we came to pick him up. She kept us up to date with the fun they were having and allowed gums to rest easy knowing our pup was in good hands. Would absolutely recommend Kamila to anyone needing a sitter!

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 .
