Pet care experience
Two dog sitters are better than one! Growing up, I helped take care of a devious Cairn terrier named Buddy, while Mike grew up with an adorable Shiba/Akita mix named Finn. We've been dog lovers ever since. While your dog stays with us, we'll be sure to tucker them out with long walks around the neighborhood, along the Emerald Necklace, or with a visit to the nearby dog parks (Brookline Avenue Playground or Kevin W. Fitzgerald Park). When we're at home, we like to lounge and watch Netflix, work on design projects, and cook. We'll be sure to keep your dog entertained indoors and out. We are both senior students at Northeastern University–I study Graphic Design while Mike studies Music Industry and Design. Our schedules as students allows us to balance out our dog-sitting responsibilities–if one is in class, most likely the other will be home to take care of your dog. We hope to have a dog of our own one day, and would love to treat your dog like a member of our family. We are happy to send pictures and updates throughout the visit. (I have a great camera!) *Repeat customers will always be charged the same rate they start with, even if our rate ever increases*
Reviews
I felt very comfortable leaving Betty with Jennifer and Mike. They sent photos daily. They get five stars in all respects!
Jen & Mike did a great job with my challenging dog. I appreciated their compassion, thoroughness and flexibility. I'd love to use them again.
Overall I think the stay went well. I could tell Bella went outside a few times, which I'm sure she enjoyed. I'm not really sure what happened during her stay from Thurs-Sun because I wasn't provided with an update unless I inquired, which I happily did twice. It was a little unnerving at times considering this was the first time I'd used a dog-sitting service. My only recommendation would be to discuss upfront your expectation for communication and not to rely on the details listed in your profile to inform your dog's stay.
We have used Rover many times and in many states from Maine to Florida. Jennifer really deserves six stars as she was so great with our dog. Multiple updates and pictures. Definitely a home run.

Information Jennifer H. would like to know about your pet
Please let us know any personality quirks your dog may have ahead of time. We would also like to know your dog's daily routine, if they get along with other dogs or cats, and activities they especially like to do.
A typical day
Your dog will get plenty of attention from me, Mike and our friends. We will go on walks 3-4 times a day (or more if necessary) and have playtime indoors as well, so bring your dog's favorite toys! Your dog can sleep wherever is comfortable for them–couch, ottoman, bed, or crate. Our house is already doggy proofed.
