“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.”

“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.”

“Jamie was wonderful! Kind, considerate, great communicator. My dog Eddie had such a happy day in her and her family’s care. We definitely look forward to next time!!”

“Rowan had a wonderful first day of doggy day care. He got to spend time with fantastic friends, play outside and go on walks. Will definitely book again.”

“Tianyue was wonderful with my dog! Very caring, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I felt comfortable leaving my pup in their care and would definitely book again. Highly recommend!”

About: Welcome! I’m a lifelong dog owner with over 10 years of experience walking, sitting and boarding dogs of all sizes — from small Coton de Tulears to sweet Pitbulls to gentle Newfoundlands. I provide boutique, in-home sitting and boarding with full-time supervision during the day, as I work from home. Your dog will receive personalized attention, structured play, enrichment, and plenty of affection — never long hours alone. If we have a commitment such as dinner plans in the evening, we will ensure Scallop and your dog are comfortable before ever leaving them alone, and never for long periods of time. For boarding, our home features a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and sunshine, with plenty of shady spots. My husband and I share it with our 1.5-year-old Coton de Tulear, Scallop — a sweet, well-socialized little guy who loves canine company. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I only accept dogs who are friendly with small dogs. I also have a soft spot for senior dogs and those needing a little extra care — patience and attentiveness are always part of the experience here. I’d love to connect and see if we’re the right fit for your pup. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is getting plenty of attention while you're away! Because my schedule is highly flexible, your dog will rarely be alone and will easily slip right into our daily routine. For sitting and boarding, your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities, supported by a fully fenced-in yard and a home environment tailored to their needs. We share our space with Scallop, our friendly Coton de Tulear, and my husband brings lifelong experience handling a diverse range of breeds—from Pitbulls and Bulldogs to Golden Retrievers and Cotons. We are highly adaptable to your dog’s specific routine; whether they require consistent crating, strict "no furniture" boundaries, or precise feeding habits, we will maintain your house rules exactly as requested to ensure a seamless transition from your home to ours.
“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.”

“Tae was terrific! This was the first time that Tae took care of our 2-year-old puppy, Sammy. Tae was very quick to respond, totally flexible, and a pleasure to work with. It was very easy to set up a Meet & Greet, and Sammy and I both felt very comfortable playing together at a park as we got to know Tae and her doodle, Udon. After the daycare, I received a detailed report card with great pictures, and Sammy came home happy and tired. I would highly recommend Tae's services and look forward to the next time that she can care for our pup.”

“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!”

“Willow loved her time with Suzanne. Suzanne did a meet-and-greet in advance with us to learn about Willow. Then they spent their walking and playing and Willow was happy to come back and see Suzanne again!”


“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.
“As a new dog mom I was hesitant to leave my puppy with a sitter. But I am happy to say that Atticia made me feel very comfortable. She responded to messages in a timely manner and kept me informed with pictures and videos throughout his stay. I will definitely use her again.”

“Ange is fantastic! She was super nice, very considerate about my dog's medical issues, kept me updated during his stay with her, and was very flexible when I needed to pick him up a bit later than planned. Will definitely book with her again!”

About: Your dog will have an unmatched experience with me and my sweet pup, Tina! I work from home full time, so your dog will always have company, structure, and plenty of attention throughout the day. We live just minutes from the arboretum which means long, enriching walks are part of our daily routine. My pup, Tina, is 4 years old and very chill. She loves having a friend around and I’m committed to making every dog feel safe, loved, and at home and making sure they get the care and affection they deserve.
Mattapan dog parents share their Rover experiences
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!!
We highly recommend Dan for your dog sitting needs. Our dog is anxious and reactive to dogs that are outside her social circle. He has experience with all types of dogs and asked good questions about her particular needs and sensitivities. He works from home and has a rear patio deck that is sufficiently secluded to enable our pup to enjoy outdoor time with Dan in good weather. He lives in a great neighborhood for dog-walking. Dan has a calming demeanor and welcomed our dog to acclimate to him and his home at whatever pace she chose. Good sitters advertise their ability to play ball, cuddle, or travel to dog parks, and Dan can do those things. But Dan also proved able to tailor his service to meet our dog’s unique sensitivities. He was also a good communicator (vis-a-vis logistical details) and shared pictures. We are glad our pup has found a new friend!

Meghan was absolutely wonderful with my dog. She kept me posted on all their activities throughout the day, sent me lots of pictures and definitely spoiled him. She was very attentive to him and was eager to learn all about Hutch and wanted to help in any way she could. She even offered to get me coffee in the morning before I dropped him off! I can’t recommend Meghan enough.
