“We have only been away from our fur babies one time in all of the years that we have had them. They are both rescues and came from horrific pasts. The one time that we were away, a familiar family member stayed overnight with them. That being said, the decision to leave our fur babies (and our home) in the care of someone who was unfamiliar to them and us was a very stressful and uncomfortable feeling. After reading/reviewing numerous profiles and talking to/meeting with a few potential sitters, we were blessed to meet Georgia. We felt it was a perfect fit, on our end, shortly after she arrived at our home for the initial visit. Watching how Georgia interacted with our high energy and anxious dogs was heartwarming. Also, the fact that she was not bothered by Gunner's tearing/suckling of his blanket (which he has done since we rescued him and prior due to his anxiety) was a relief. Gunner and Zohie (as well as myself) immediately picked up Georgia's calmness and friendly nature. Georgia was extremely patient and open with me while I bombarded her with question after question and detail after detail about our dogs. At the end of our first meeting, I nervously asked Georgia if she thought she would want to take the responsibility of caring for our dogs and home while we were away. When Georgia said she was willing to take care of them, it was such a relief. Then I asked Georgia to come and spend more time with them/us again, prior to the overnight. She said, "Yes, of course!" and I felt that we had hit the jackpot! Prior to and during the stay, Georgia responded quickly to my numerous messages/questions/check ins. She sent us pics and kept us updated. When we returned home, our house was exactly as we left it and the dogs behaved as though we were not away. This made us feel as though they were comfortable and relaxed with Georgia while we were away. Georgia is truly invested in building relationships with pet owners as well as the pets. It is clear that Georgia cares about her responsibilities, loves animals, and takes this position seriously. She is a true gem and we are already talking about going away again very soon.”
“Haley was a natural with our 2 Goldens. From the 1st meet and greet to staying with our girls for a few days, we never had to worry. We came home to a clean house and happy, tired dogs ! We will definitely have Haley back soon! 😀”
“I truly cannot say enough good things about Audrey! We were very nervous leaving our dog Kaya for the first time with someone whose not family for our wedding weekend but Audrey took all those nerves away the first time we met her! She was so sweet and good with Kaya. She sent us so many pictures and updates throughout the weekend and it made our wedding weekend that much more enjoyable knowing Kaya was in good hands. She took excellent care of our home and our pup! Audrey will 100% be my first call the next time we’re planning a trip anywhere!”
“Mary pays lots of attention to our dog. Stewie is usually anxious when we've been away but the time and attention that Mary gives to her while she cares for her makes all the differnece. Mary also takes good care of our home while we are away!”
About: I have done both walking and house sitting for family and neighbors for five years, and have worked with and am comfortable handling both large and small dogs. I grew up owning dogs, including a shitzu mix, a poodle mix, and a shelter girl of unknown breed. While all but one of the dogs I have owned were under 20 pounds, most of my history in pet sitting has been with has been with dogs in the 30-70 pound range, including labs, huskies, and a pit bull mix as my most frequent clients. I have experience with owning a fear reactive dog, but my comfort with taking care of them will be on a case by case basis. I also have experience with training young dogs for crating, potty training, and leash training I am currently exclusively self employed and have a flexible schedule with my income sources, so I am available most days and times of the week At this time I am only able to provide care in my clients home, I am unable to provide boarding due to limited space in my house I will work with owners to maintain your pets normal schedule, including feeding and walks. I am comfortable crating and using alternate feeders or feeding styles as needed Dogs will never be outside unattended, and will be kept on leash or in fenced in yards unless the owner specifically requests that I do otherwise. Cats will not be taken outside for any reason unless requested by owners. All animals will receive a significant amount of play and/or pet time during each visit, assuming the animal is comfortable with and enjoying it For drop ins, I will provide at least one update per visit including pictures. For continuous house sitting, as my standard I will provide at least three updates per day (morning, mid day, and afternoon/evening) with at least one photo per update. If you would like more or less updates, just let me know and I am fully willing to work with you to get you the amount of contact desired
About: All my life I’ve had a variety of different animals all including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc. You name it, I have owned it. In some time spans all at the same time. I would love to take all this experience that I was fortunate enough to obtain throughout the years and bring it to your home! I am currently enrolled at the Western New England University. At the time being as I am on summer break I am looking for something to do to take up all this newly acquired time. As well as make some extra money to go towards my tuitions. Since I have a love for animals I thought this was the perfect opportunity for me. At the moment I currently have 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a cocktail. As you can imagine yes they can certainly be a handful but I couldnt imagine my life without them. Each and everyone being on a schedule of their own which is always never a problem.
“Erin was the perfect dog (and house) sitter. We came home to a relaxed and happy senior dog and the house just as we had left it. Erin went above and beyond by bringing in mail and trash can, watering plants and even reached out to see when Riley could go on the lawn after it was fertilized. Erin is professional and responsive. We will definitely be booking with Erin again!”
“Saige was amazing and took such great care of our fur baby. Isla is a 10 yo aussie shephard and full of energy and mischief. Saige was wonderful with her and I would HIGHLY recommend putting Saige's talents to work with your fur baby.”
About: I’m a graduate student with a bachelors of science in Biology and a concentration in pre-vet, working towards a career in veterinary medicine with years of hands-on experience caring for animals. I’ve worked in a clinical hospital and an animal shelter with both cats and dogs, gaining experience with a wide range of temperaments, ages, and needs. I’ve also taken multiple animal-focused college courses that strengthen my understanding of proper care, behavior, and health. In addition, I’ve provided pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors for several years. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently working part-time, but I have as much time as I can give for your fur baby! I coach softball so I’m away part of July but other than that my schedule is pretty open. I prioritize pet safety by following routines closely, maintaining clean spaces, and respecting your home. I ensure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times.
“Thank you for communicating with me throughout your stay. I’m really glad to have feedback on how my dog is doing and what additional support I need to give him. I really look forward to you sitting with him again.”
“We were so fortunate to find Deborah when our planned sitter had a conflict come up and none of our friends were available either. Deborah was attentive to my concerns, followed my very specific instructions about caring for our four cats, and communicated and sent photos regularly. She also took excellent care of our home. We would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a great cat and house sitter.”
“Julie was amazingly flexible, as our schedule was unknown, and was there when we needed her. More importantly, she was good with Ricky, took him out for walks as well as for his sanitary needs, and kept us regularly informed, with pictures. If we are in the area again we will seek her to assist us, and Ricky, again.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life and over that span of time have been held responsible for over 25 dogs and cats with neighbors coming back for care. I’m currently working part-time hours since I’m a full-time college student but in my spare time I would love to take care of your pets. I can maintain a safe environment , removing any hazards and ensuring door and gates are closed. As well as keeping you updated on your pets well-being and giving your pet lots of love:)
About: I have been walking and caring for my own personal animals - 2 dogs, cat, bird, hamsters since I was 5 years old. I also have been dog sitting and walking for numerous neighbors and friends in the area. I work during the day a full-time job. I am available early in the morning and after 4:00pm during the week. I am available on the weekends anytime of the day. I have a fenced in backyard that my 4 year old Brittany Spaniel, Maggie loves to run around and play ball. It is completely fenced in so she can't get out. I love to be outside playing with my dog and bring her on 3+ walks a day around town and at the local park.
Memorial Square pet parents share their Rover experiences
Samantha was fantastic! She cared for our home and our two crazy Golden Retrievers for two days while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The dogs were comfortable with her, loved spending time with her, and we appreciated the thoughtful check-ins and photos throughout our trip. She's kind, reliable, and genuinely interesting to talk with! We felt completely at ease knowing our pets and home were in her care. We'll absolutely use her again and highly recommend her! :) Thanks, Samantha!!
We are happy with Matt’s overall professionalism in taking care of our dog, Gina. He was very accommodating and kept her safe and entertained. There were some unforeseen circumstances that Matt handled well. He communicated with us regularly and sent some nice photos. We felt comfortable having Matt take care of our dog and home while we were away for a week.

So grateful we found Regan! She agreed to a last-minute job when my scheduled sitter backed out the morning of. Her ability to work with and maintain the safety of our dog who has severe separation anxiety was nothing short of perfection! She kept me updated on our dog's well-being and pre-booking communications were timely and efficient. Really doesn't get any better than Regan. I will def book with her again!
Samantha was absolutely amazing and she took care of my dog Cruiser while me and my family were on a cruise. We got daily updates of how everything was going along with pictures of their walks. Samantha treated our house with the utmost respect. If anyone is ever looking for a very professional dog house sitter, Samantha is the one to pick. We were relieved knowing that our dog and our house were in safe hands and we will be using Samantha again in the future.
Audrey was very kind, caring and patient with our senior dog, Molly. She was able to give her her pills with no issues and Molly ended up falling asleep in her lap. Audrey also sent many pictures during the time she was sitting. We highly recommend booking Audrey to take care of your pet :)
