“My pup has done daycare with Jason three times now and she runs up to his front door excited each time. Jason shares photos and videos each day and maps of their walks and bathroom breaks. He’s a great communicator and it’s so comforting to leave my (big) dog with him when I’m at work knowing she’s fully taken care of. Can’t recommend him enough!”

“Jess is absolutely great . She was able to accommodate to our last-minute request for daycare for our dog Bruno and was very understanding of our dog’s needs. She kept sending pictures and updates which gave us piece of mind during these times when our dog needs to be monitored. We’re looking forward for Bruno’s next boarding stay with Jess.”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine commitment to the well-being of every pet and my ability to adapt to their individual needs, treating them as if they were part of my own family. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs and cats. With puppies, I help reinforce basic training routines such as potty training, leash walking, and early obedience, always using patience and positive reinforcement. With senior pets, I am especially attentive to their pace, mobility, diet, and medication if needed, providing them with calm, consistent, and gentle care. In addition, I am very observant of animal behavior, which allows me to quickly notice any changes in their mood or health. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and accompanied at all times, while maintaining clear and consistent communication with their owners. More than just pet care, I offer trust, affection, and responsibility. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to caring for pets during the day. I can easily adapt to each pet’s needs, whether it’s visits, walks, or in-home care. I am mainly available on weekdays and can also plan for weekends with advance notice. When caring for pets in my home or in the owner’s home, I make sure to carefully follow all instructions. I maintain their feeding, walking, and rest routines, and provide attention, affection, and a calm environment. I am very mindful of their safety, cleanliness, and well-being, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for at all times.
“Kayla took great care of Ruby while dog sitting. She provided plenty of updates and my pup had fun day with Kayla and her family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kayla again for sitting!”

About: I have never owned my own dog or cat (due to brothers allergies) so I grew up determined to find ways to hang out with other peoples! I’ve watched dogs and cats of all types/ages/personalities. I hope I get the chance to meet your furry friend! I’m currently unemployed, training for a Pilates instructor certification and so I have ample time to look after, feed, and play with the pets! I keep a very clean apartment, with an extra deep clean before pets arrive to ensure nothing is stepped on or eaten, I have ample space for the pet to have their own area or hang out with me and not feel cramped.
“Mayu loves getting dropped off to Atticia’s for daycare. She’s walked, fed, rested, and loved all day and comes home ready to knock out. I’m also so happy Mayu has a dog friend with Aurora- I think it’s really helped with her manners and socialization skills. Thank you for all you do, Atticia!”


“Ann-Marie has been watching my little guy Ollie and she has been the best. She has been allowing me to work in peace. She cares for him like her own and I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’m a great sitter because animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve had the joy of raising dogs from puppies to adulthood, including a mini-poodle named Mikey, who was a cherished part of our family for 11 years. Currently, I have a 2-year-old cat named Cash and a 1.5-year-old dog named Jax. My care also extends to parakeets, other small birds, hamsters, and fish. Additionally, I have always found myself being a sitter for the pets of my relatives and I am currently fostering 2 cats. I have experience with nursing pets back to health after surgeries. I’m currently working part-time, so I have time to hang with the fur-babies! On weekdays, my afternoons are free, I do not work on Friday and Saturdays, and every night is available for possible boarders, as I am home. When caring for pets I prioritize their health, comfort, and emotional well-being. I ensure they’re well-fed by preparing and cooking their food according to their specific dietary needs. If a pet is unwell, I take the time to nurse them back to health with close attention and gentle care. I am also the person that takes my pets to their vet appointments. I also make sure they feel loved and secure by spending quality time with them—petting, cuddling, and playing—tailored to their personality and preferences. Each pet is treated like family, with patience, compassion, and responsibility at the heart of everything I do.
About: Hi, my name is Richard. I grew up taking care of my family’s pets, I love all types of animals but cats and dogs hold a special place in my heart and being around animals has always been second nature to me. I took a break from Rover this past year while I moved and focused on work, but I’m fully back now with an open to give your pets my full attention. I currently work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. That means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they need throughout the day. I believe each animal deserves their own personal care and routine, whether it’s walks, playtime, or just relaxing together. With me, your pet will always feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. I have a flexible career working from home. This means I’m always around to give pets the attention they need, whether that’s a morning walk, midday playtime, or just keeping them company throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left waiting for care. I build my schedule around making sure they feel happy and comfortable. I will care for your pet like it is my own. Whether it is in my home or yours I will ensure that they are comfortable, well loved, fed and played with.
“Jamie was great! Was flexible with an early pickup, communicated quickly, and took good care of our pup. Benji immediately made himself at home and seemed sad to go, he enjoyed his time with Jamie and Sammie.”


About: Experienced dog sitter with nearly 10 years of Rover experience, I started on the app in college as a side hustle and have been loving it ever since! I own a home in Dorchester Center near Lower Mills, with great walking routes along the Neponset River Trail, nearby dog parks, and plenty of pup-friendly adventures. I offer walks, drop-ins, daycare, overnight stays, and personalized care for dogs of all sizes and personalities—from tiny lap dogs to Bernese Mountain dogs. Having grown up around dogs my entire life, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone trustworthy, patient, and attentive. I work fully remote in tech sales and share my home with Bo, my very friendly chocolate lab, so your pup will get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. With no children at home, my focus is entirely on providing a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for your furry friend. I’d love to meet you and your dog—let me know how I can help! I work remotely from home full time, in a flexible sales role with ample down time. I will be available and attentive throughout the day with the ability to go for walks, play, and ensure a fun and stimulating environment for your pet. I own a 3-story home with a small yard, in a safe and secure area of Dorchester. Plenty of room for playing, lounging around, and ensuring that your pet is happy and comfortable at all times.
“Blair was everything we could have hoped for! She took great care of our dog Leo and took him on 2 walks during his day with her. She was super responsive and sent great photos. We will definitely continue to use Blair for any daycare needs in the future!”

“Sarabeth was so amazing. Kenobi loved spending time with her and was excited to see her every morning. She was very communicative, kind, and sent frequent updates. Highly recommend!!”

“Alan took excellent care of my young dog who is something of an escape artist. Pilot enjoyed his time with Alan and I enjoyed knowing that Pilot was happy and safe.”

“Lauren was amazing with our dog, Coda. From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. She was warm, attentive, and truly treated him like one of her own. We got updated during the work day, and it was clear he was happy and at ease in her care. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were at work. We couldn't ask for a better sitter — Coda can't wait to go back! Highly, highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver.”

“Sadia was great our dog! He’s definitely on the younger / more active side and she did an amazing job handling his energy. I’ve tried lots of daycare places and it always seemed like he used to come home sad, but not after his visit with Sadia. Would recommend / rebook.”

“Great experience working with Kayla! Kind and courteous, ia great communicator, and committed to giving my dog Eddie a happy and active day. Also, her goldens are adorable with beautiful temperaments, making them wonderful playmates. I’m sure Eddie will be visiting Kayla again!”

About: I would be great person to take care/watch your dog because I don’t treat pets like any regular animal they are like kids they need to be loved and taken care of just like any other human being. My whole life growing up I have been around nothing but dogs mainly and I always grow a different bond with every single one of them as if they were my own,I’m different from other sitters because to me it’s not just about money but I would love to have all the new experiences I can get with many different dogs all shapes and sizes, I can learn a lot of new things and even help train your dog with things they haven’t even learned yet. I’m currently a stay at home mom finishing up with school so I will have plenty of free time to still love and care for your pet. I have a small yard but also closed in parks that your dog can run around and still be free in. Also while inside I treat all dogs like my own so they would have the same routines just like they were right at home no one likes new changes so fast.
About: While you're away, your pet will feel like they’re on vacation too—relaxed, loved, and well cared for. Let go of the worry—your best friend is in the best hands. Although I work full-time, I return to your pet as soon as I’m off. Even better—my wife works from home and will be there throughout the day to provide attention, care, and company. You can rest easy knowing your pet is never alone and always in loving hands. I have a dedicated indoor pet room where your pet can roam freely in comfort, with fresh water always available and a cozy space to relax. You can rest easy knowing your best friend is in the best hands.
Mattapan dog parents share their Rover experiences
Mirabel was amazing with our crazy 8 month old lab. He has so much energy. We appreciate her time and dedication to him today! She took him on a walk and did commands. He loved her! My husband and I are extremely satisfied with the care that was provided for our fur baby!

Love Yaidesky and so did my Golden pup! Yaidesky came to my rescue when I had to find a reliable sitter on a super short notice, she is so responsive, and I totally appreciate that! It’s such a relief to know she’s there for us and our pup when we need a trusted human to care for our dog :)

We feel like we hit the jackpot finding Riya. Truly the BEST dogsitter we’ve ever had. He goes above and beyond — long walks, tons of playtime, and the sweetest photos that made us smile every day. Our dog came home happier than when we dropped him off. We are forever grateful!!
