About: I have experience giving medications to dogs and have managed pets with a wide range of socialization experience. I work from home and am prepared to give your pet my full attention, from taking them out every few hours to ensuring they have enough stimulation. I bring sensitivity and love to my care, treating each animal with respect and compassion. I work remotely and have plenty of time to take pups for long walks during the day. I have a small dog of my own, so this is already part of my daily routine. I grew up with dogs and they have always been a central part of my family. I have experience caring for young puppies, elderly dogs, and everything in between. Now, I live very close to Barry Park, so there is ample green space for long walks. I also have a small, friendly Havanese who can keep your pup company!

I can’t recommend Bonnie enough. She is responsive in advance of the visit; focused on the detail necessary to ensure she your pet’s routine is consistent while you are away; and she is generous with updates and photos while you are traveling. But most of all, Bonnie is the BEST because she truly loves animals. Bonnie spends the time and gives your pet(s) the attention necessary to make them feel loved in your absence!! I have two cats. Bonnie won Ollie over immediately. His sister, Vivi, is shy around new people. I always worried traveling but I don’t anymore. By day 3, I was getting photos and videos of Vivi playing, rolling over on her back, and being brushed and patted.

Cathalina was wonderful and exceeded our expectations! During our meet and greet, she was gentle and sweet interacting with our kitty Mozzarella; it was clear she has lots of experience meeting new pets. She was professional and easy to communicate with, sending us pictures and details after each visit. She really went above and beyond to show us our kitty was in great care. We will definitely contact her again next time!

Sasha did an absolutely wonderful job with my kitties during my first trip out of town! She was easy to reach and work with, learned each of my pets’ individual needs and personalities, and kept them happy and entertained. She sent tons of cute pics and updates and when one of them had a minor vomit-sesh, she cleaned up no worries and just let me know after. Totally recommend her services!

About: Hi! I’m Jacky, a lifelong dog lover and dedicated dog mom to Harley, my 4-year-old golden retriever. I work from home full time, which means your dog will get constant supervision, plenty of attention, and lots of opportunities for walks, play, and enrichment throughout the day. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a teenager, and over the years that experience has only deepened. Since adopting Harley, we’ve welcomed many dogs into our home for half days, full days, and even week long stays. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different routines, energy levels, and personalities. I like to focus on making them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. I work from home full time so Harley and I spend the whole day together. We would be thrilled to add another friend to our group. I never leave Harley home alone for more than 4 hours though most days she’s never left as all. We do long walks, training practice, playtime, and plenty of potty breaks every day. I take dog safety very seriously - for Harley and for any dog in my care. I’m very intentional about creating a calm, structured environment and will always: -feed dogs separately -never leave dogs together unsupervised -closely monitor all play and step in as needed to keep interactions safe and positive -follow all your dog’s routines, boundaries and any special instructions

Jazmin was wonderful dropping in on our two cats while we were away. She sent photos and was responsive when necessary. She was very organized and left our home in the same condition we left it, and followed our feeding / litter cleaning / treats schedule as requested. Our cats were happy when we came home after 2 nights as opposed to standoff-ish in relation to us leaving. Jazmin is very trustworthy and we’d love for her to drop in on the cars again the next time we go out of town!

Maria and her partner happily accepted a quick meet up before meeting Mochi and I. They were eager, friendly, and very respectful. They spent and hour each day playing, petting, chasing, and cuddling with Mochi. My little Mochi was ecstatic to see them and play with them. Knowing that she was in great, eager, and safe company and while providing her nonstop attention for the hour was the best I could ask for. Would love to have Maria and her partner hang with Mochi again soon!

About: Lifelong dog-lover. Obsessed with walks, playtime, and 1:1 attention. Work from home with flexible work schedule - available for walks and boarding. I am a self-employed artist so I have full flexibility to care for your fur babies. Occasionally I do work outside the home for art events, but only for a few hours. I grew up with a golden retriever, Misty from 2000-2010, cementing my love for retrievers. While I’d love my own dog someday, I’m not ready for the full time commitment of my own dog, so sitting for dogs and walking dogs is a great way for me to get that dog fix! I’ve now been working on Rover since April 2025 and have completed over 120 bookings with 30+ clients and have proudly reached star sitter status with all 5 star reviews. Your dog will always be on a leash and will surely be tired out when they are done with me - I frequently walk around the Tufts campus area and can cater your dog’s exercise routine to their specific needs. Dogs will always have ample water and I’ll stick diligently to their dietary needs while in my care. I do not accept pit bulls, chihuahua, german shepherds, dachshunds, corgi or Australian shepherds in my home for boarding, but am open to service them through drops ins/walks. I do not accept dogs with behavior issues including resource guarding, aggression, and destructive chewing. I also do not accept dogs with tendencies to bark a lot, as it’s disruptive to me and my neighbors. When requesting a booking, please provide your dog with a fully completed profile, including their care routine and information on socialization - I do not book clients without this info. When boarding your dog, I’d appreciate that your dog be recently groomed. I work as a full time artist from home, so I have a lot of flexibility to take dogs out for walks during the day or watch dogs in my own home while you're away. I'm on a first floor of a two-family home. Dogs typically like to sleep in our living room, on the couch or next to our bed. Able to accommodate an owner-provided crate if needed. Close proximity to a park for playtime, pee breaks.

Caitlin was our first-ever sitter via Rover and we could not be happier. She’s lovely and kind, and very attentive to detail. We had last-minute complications with our cat-sitting needs (ie; a 1 year old feisty cat that needs a pill once a day) and she managed it with ease. We felt so comforted knowing our two sweet cats were in the best of hands. Can’t wait for the next time we book with her!

About: Right now I have two bunnies at home but my family and friends always have dogs and cats around so I have a lot of experience taking care of both(also bunnies ofc), especially with elder dogs. I'm a very patient and observant person and animals usually LOVE me! I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I can do drop-in visits anytime during the days, I would prefer dog walking in the afternoon more than the morning but that is totally negotiable! My jobs have been very communication/client based so I intend to bring that same level of care and reliability when looking after pets — making sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease. I will ask you about their personalities and preferences before I meet them. I will start slow to earn their trust. Depending on whether they are energetic or shy, I can adapt to be playful or gentle with them too. During walks, I will prepare waste bags and treats if needed. I will also help clean their paws after a rainy/muddy walk. If your pets have specific toys you want me to play with them, I will make sure they have fun too!

Sarah is the best! She’s so good at reading my cat’s mood and giving her the type of attention that she’s looking for (snacks and brushes in that order lol). She also made herself available for an extra visit when I got stuck out of town for an extra night! I can’t recommend her enough.

Nicole was wonderful! We left our cats in her care for over two weeks, and she couldn't have been more thoughtful, responsive, and conscientious. One of our cats had some medical issues right before our trip, so I was especially nervous about leaving them, but she immediately put us at ease. She was incredible attentive and patient, especially when it came to giving them treats/meds, and was very communicative throughout the entire trip, which we really appreciated. On top of that, she handled everything that came up (hairballs, a litter robot hiccup, and the general chaos of four cats) without any issues and kept things running smoothly. It made such a huge difference knowing they were in such capable hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book her again! Highly recommend :)

Nathan went above and beyond to care for our kitties while we were gone! He was also flexible when we had to extend our Rover booking a bit longer. We got detailed reports every day on how the cats were doing. Came back to a very happy household which means a lot especially when one of our cats is a senior and all 3 of them typically have separation anxiety. Thank you so much Nathan!!
