“Jeena did a great job watching our two older dogs and our house while we were away for a week. She sent us a bunch of pics of our dogs and kept us updated daily. Would definitely recommend Jeena!”
“Lauren is an amazing dog sitter that obviously cares about every dog she has. She was very loving, attentive, and perfect with my dog. Lots of pictures which I loved and lots of communication. Left my house clean and no hiccups!”
“Lauryn stayed at our house for ten days and took fantastic care of our two older dogs with multiple medication needs. She sent great photos that made us confident the dogs were well loved and the house looked amazing when we got back.”
“Becky was wonderful and got along well with our 3 dogs of very different personalities. She sent lots of updates and great photos. She was also flexible to help out a little extra when we had some travel delays. Excellent!!!”
“Perri was great. I had a lot of unknowns with my dog's diet because he became ill right before my trip. Perri worked with us to navigate his eating behaviors and kept me up to date on everything! I would definitely hire Perri again.”
“Alicia was wonderful! She and our puppy, Brandy, got along great. Alicia sent pictures of Brandy everyday, took her on walks, watched over our house and let us know if there were any problems.”
“She did great and kept me updated. Didn't leave the place a mess and my boy seemed like he had a good weekend since he dragged a bunch of toys out he never plays with probably showing off.”
“Cara was absolutely fabulous! She provided regular updates (including photos and videos!) of our dogs with their statuses while we were out of town! We felt so comfortable our dogs were in good hands.”
“Allison was fantastic! Our two cats were so loved and she took the most professional photos of them to send to us. Our house was immaculate as well. Allison also went above and beyond to help us prepare for a snowstorm that would start as we returned. Would book her again and again.”
“Kat was great! I was in a last minute crunch to find a sitter and she came through eager and experienced! 🙌🏽 The meet and greet went well and she handled my big 97lb baby beautifully. Plenty of updates and the house was clean upon return. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Kat!”
“Joe was amazing! He was communicative with us and took great care of our 3 furbabies. One of our dogs takes 9 pills a day and he was so reliable and trustworthy. We are definitely booking with him again!”
“Porter was very professional from the meet and greet to the second he left. Our house was just as we left it when we returned. He communicated frequently and sent daily dog pics.”
“Ashley was amazing! It was a little rough for her and Cooper in the beginning but they both worked through Cooper's issues.I got updates several times a day which I loved. She made sure that Cooper felt safe which was my biggest priority and when she left I think my house was a little cleaner than when I left for vacation. I would definitely recommend Ashley and will be calling her again in the future.!!!”
“Jennifer was a fun, attentive, affectionate and responsible caregiver for my 7 month old kitten. She played with her a lot, fed her and cleaned out her litter regularly, and sent me lots of pictures and messages updating me on my kitten’s days. She also went above and beyond on cleaning my house and laundering the linens before I got home. Totally unnecessary, but very much appreciated. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Max was so great with our pooch and we will definitely call him again! We got regular pictures and updates, he really wanted to make sure our dog was cared for, and we fully trusted him in our home while we were gone. Highly recommend!!!”
Marlborough pet parents share their Rover experiences
Corinne took such great care of our senior dog during our week away. It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family, so we were definitely nervous, but she made the whole experience so much easier. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell he was well cared for and comfortable at home while we were gone. We’d absolutely trust Corinne to watch him again!
Katie watched our dogs while we were away and was fantastic! We have two pups, and both can be a little slow to warm up. Within 5 minutes of meeting Katie they were following her around asking for pets. She sent consistent updates and was very quick to respond to messages. Our house was even cleaner than when we left. Would book again without any hesitation!
Sam and Chris were amazing! I received multiple updates throughout the day along with cute videos. This was their first time watching my fur kids, and I was out of town with little cell service. I fully trusted them to take great care of the animals and our home. The house was immaculate when I got home, and the babies were as happy as could be!
After meeting Jennifer and Sharon, I felt very confident in leaving my babies in their care. I have a terminally ill cat and didn't want to leave her with just a person looking in twice a day so felt a live-in pet sitter was the way to go. I was not disappointed. They took great care of both of my fur babies and I would gladly book them again. I did not worry about my kitties while I was gone because I knew they were in great hands.
Natalee was awesome. She was detail oriented and clearly loves dogs a lot. She was very intentional about the way she met and interacted with our dog, and followed our requests perfectly. Our dog took to her very quickly and seemed to have a great time with her.
Lauren is AMAZING! What was supposed to be a very straightforward dog/house sitting job became a lot more complicated when one dog had a bite/ER visit the night before Lauren's arrival, which required much more in depth care. Lauren was so kind and chill about the whole thing. She took AMAZING care of our dogs and even washed the dishes and cleaned up the house before she left. And she was so great about providing updates and photos. Truly 10/10 will be using Lauren again!!
