“Allison was great with our 12 week puppy Dunkin! She managed a tricky situation where our door was locked and was very communicative during and after the visit. Would totally book with her again.”
“Catherine was so beyond amazing with my cat, Domino! It was my first time on the owner side of Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Catherine was punctual, responsive, and extremely thorough with each visit. Domino loved playing with her! I’ll definitely use Catherine again and I would highly recommend her for anyone who wants the best for their pets 😊”
“Grace was wonderul! She was able to check in on my dog on short notice and was incredibly reliable and communicative throughout the visit. I would definitely book with Grace again!”
“Lindsay was incredible with Sunny. She was very thorough during the meet and greet. She gives detailed updates with great pictures. Overall she goes above and beyond. I would definitely recommend.”
“Nick was the best dog sitter! We had drop in visits scheduled, and he was so intentional with spending time with our pup on each one. We will definitely be booking with Nick for our next trip!”
About: *PLEASE READ BEFORE REQUESTING. THANK YOU!* We are conveniently located in North Quincy only 5.6 miles away from Logan Airport and right by I-93! I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid and have extensive experience including with horses and farm livestock. I have a pet labradoodle I’ve trained myself and I have experience walking + feeding neighbors’ dogs, overnight house sitting and taking care of cats. I also have experience re-socializing two rescue dogs. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and breeds. I am also comfortable with dogs still being trained. I live in my family's house with a yard and there are adults present to help full-time. Your dog will receive lots of individual attention and have space to roam all over the house! We also have a fenced dog park in the neighborhood! I have lots of experience / specialization with senior dogs, giant breeds and puppies (especially early months) In summary, why book with me? 😊 🐾 Family who loves and cares for animals 🐾 House with a backyard 🐾 Adults present full time, no children 🐾 Chill low-energy senior labradoodle to keep your dog company 🐾 Free range around the house and furniture 🐾 Can provide multiple walks per day / rigorous exercise 🐾 My senior dog Bart is up to date on all vaccinations I look forward to connecting! your dog deserves a vacation too 🐾 ** UNFORTUNATELY, I AM UNABLE TO PROVIDE WALKS DURING M-F 10AM-4PM OR REPEATING WEEKLY SERVICE REQUESTS AT THIS TIME, PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT ONE-TIME REQUESTS.** I’m currently working from home remotely and available full-time. There are four adults present and your dog will become part of my family! :) I have flexibility to adapt mornings, evenings and weekend routines to feed/walk your dog. I lead a very flexible life at the moment in between my travels. I have a car. It is my goal to provide a home away from home for your pet :) **Unfortunately, I am unable to provide long-term/multi-month repeating services at this time.** I have a backyard and a very friendly happy-go-lucky labradoodle to keep your pet company (or separated if your dog does not do well with other pets). I have plenty of dog toys to play with your pet. Dogs are allowed on furniture.
About: 🏡 Calm, home-away-from-home boarding 🐕 Pet-free household 🌳 Private fenced yard ❤️ Experienced with rescues & anxious dogs 📸 Frequent updates 👩 Home throughout the day 📝 Detailed meet-and-greet/intake process I may be new to Rover but I’m not new to caring for your dog. As a lifelong pet owner, animal lover and proud rescue dog mom, I know that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. I raised my two rescue Staffordshire Terrier/Pit Bull mixes from the shelter, giving me hands-on experience with training, structure, and positive reinforcement. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I adapt my care to match both their personality and the routine you’ve established, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your dog’s stay will include plenty of one-on-one attention, walks to the nearby park, playtime in my fully fenced backyard, and lots of affection (including couch cuddles if they’re allowed!). I also believe communication is key, so you can expect regular photo and video updates throughout the day for complete peace of mind. My goal is simple: to become someone you can trust wholeheartedly with your best friend. I want you to leave knowing your dog is being cared for with the same love, patience, and attention that you would give them yourself. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention throughout the day, whether that’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or simply keeping your dog company. I enjoy being active, so regular walks and outdoor time are already part of my day. Whether your pet needs a quick walk, overnight care, or an extended stay, I’ll make sure they receive the time, attention, and care they deserve—not just the basics, but plenty of love and companionship too. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to match their personality, energy level, and the routine you’ve already established. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, consistency, and lots of love and attention. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions (if needed), and any training cues you use so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. In my home, dogs enjoy a calm, pet-free environment with plenty of one-on-one attention, a fully fenced backyard for supervised play, walks to the nearby park, and cozy places to relax. If your dog is allowed on furniture, they’re welcome to cuddle up on the couch with me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I’ll keep your home tidy, can provide regular updates with photos and videos, and make sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. My goal is for you to return home to a happy dog and complete peace of mind
“Lauren is the best. She is so timely and available on short notice. My work schedule changes weekly and she has a big heart for Paulie. He loves her! She shares a lot of details about their time together and I’d recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve had a lifelong experience with dogs including growing up with two Scottish Terriers and raising my now seven-year-old lab shepherd mix, Tux. Combined, I’ve acquired great experience with dog care and training. I currently work full time from home from 9-5 Monday through Friday. On weekends, i am also available with notice. I’m available for walks from your home or pet sitting/walks from my home during the day/evening. On top of that, I’m happy to have your dog for boarding. I have a fenced in yard and parks very close to my home making for a great walk. Tux is here 7 days a week and I can let our dogs play or separate them if you prefer. Your pet is welcome on the couch in the living room or dog beds.
About: I have been around dogs and other pets my whole life! I grew up with Rottweilers and my family currently has Bernese mountain dogs and boxers so I understand the energy that fuels these big babies. I have experience with cats along with other animals ranging from farm to reptile. I have changed dog diapers, administered medications, and have provided care from puppy to senior. My current life does not allow for a dog and I just have so much puppy love to give! I’m a teacher on summer break who also does not have much of a social life. I am very flexible currently and can fit with your schedule! I’m comfortable with what you are comfortable with! I have administered meds, changed dog diapers, and understand the importance of a watchful eye (my family dog will eat poop if she could).
“Leonardo took wonderful care of my two senior cats, including one that requires medication twice a day, while I was gone for the weekend. They were clearly well tended to when I came home. He was very communicative and lovely to work with. I would definitely choose Leonardo again and recommend others to do the same!”
“Erika is the best! This was my first time leaving my cat since I moved to Charlotte two months ago. She was amazing! She took the time to give my cat attention and affection. I couldn’t ask for anything more. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Rev is communicative and on time. It was great they were open to a meet and greet/drop in before booking an overnight and I feel great that it seems my dog will be in very capable and kind hands!”
“Julia is very easy to communicate with and was happy to come by for a meet and greet prior to first booking. For first visit, Julia was right on time and sent pictures and detailed notes about her visit. Will definitely book again! So appreciative of the care she provided.”
“Jess went above and beyond taking care of my kitties. When I came home they were happy and healthy. I also loved getting cute pictures of them when I was away from my home.”
“Mike did a great job doting on our very neurotic cat. He managed to slip a pill into her food every morning, and stayed around for a bit so she could get a "second breakfast" afterwards. He even got to pet her occasionally, something only a very select few can say! Fountains were kept filled, cat box was clean, and bowls weren't overflowing with stale, dried up food. Definitely recommend!”
About: Lifelong dog owner & runner. I have a Vizsla and understand high energy breeds exercise needs and the play/affection of all dogs! Looking forward to bonding with your 🐕 and making sure they are healthy and happy! I work 3 12hr shifts at a hospital and have the flexibility to help with morning, afternoon or evening walks on several days a week. I’m a very active person and constantly out with my own dog. It’s my happy place to be outside and I’m looking forward to helping your dog walking or drop-in visit needs while you are away or at work. Please let me know your dog’s particular needs for drop-in visits. Any food/treats or medication they may need. Any allergies. If a dog walk, please let me know if your dog is friendly with other dogs or timid (if I should cross the street to avoid another dog interaction). This way I can ensure a safe and happy walk for your dog!
About: Hi! I’m Rose, a reliable and caring animal lover based in the Quincy area. I have 4 cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with daily pet care routines and giving animals lots of attention and love. We also had a 15-year-old Shih Tzu who passed away in 2022 and over the past year I’ve been walking and caring for dogs for rover clients. I am currently taking the year off from teaching so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week! I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks, and can be accommodating with last-minute requests when needed. I will be actively engaging with your fur baby! I love taking them on walks and to parks depending on their needs! I will make sure to follow your instructions on their feeding schedule to keep a controlled diet

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Milton
Mary was so quick to respond to a last minute request for help (and Eric so even while flying back on a plane!) that it blew my mind!! She was able to drop by once she'd landed to meet the dogs and go over logistics. 10/10 would recommend, we got photos so quickly and my two dogs were tired and happy (and relieved lol) 😊
Eleanor went above and beyond to make the drop-in all around perfection for my dog! She was on time, stayed the full time, handled all of the care items asked and then some. I know from the photos she shared that my dog had the very best time and felt loved and cared for while mom was gone! Will definitely be re-booking with Eleanor!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Milton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
