1. Anna W.

“Anna is the best sitter you could ever ask for. You can walk away with a confidence that your pet is in the safest hands. She took our dog around the city and took incredible care of him. She is extremely thorough and prompt in her communication. She is also a great photographer and be ready to get amazing pics of your pet.”


2. Kevin & Eva Y.
“Kevin is one of the most thoughtful and reliable pet sitters I’ve met. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs—alongside his gentle white Pomeranian, Mello—he creates a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet he welcomes. Whether it’s managing routines, adapting to different dog personalities, or simply spending time playing and walking with them, Kevin’s attentiveness and warmth always shine through. As a graduate student at MIT with a flexible schedule, he’s incredibly responsive and goes the extra mile to ensure each pet feels at home. You can truly relax knowing your pet is in his care.”


3. Edward & Shyana H.


“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Ed and Shayana while visiting Boston. From the moment we met them, we could tell our dog Gus was in great hands—he warmed up to them right away, which immediately put us at ease. They were incredibly kind, hospitable, and communicative throughout Gus’s stay. We received regular updates, complete with photos and videos, several times a day. It was clear they were not only attentive to his needs, but genuinely cared about his comfort and happiness. Gus also had a blast hanging out with their sweet dog, Isla—an added bonus! It truly felt like a home away from home for him. If you're looking for a stress-free, loving environment for your pup, Ed and Shayana should be at the very top of your list. We can’t recommend them highly enough!”


4. Dayquan J.

“Highly, highly recommend Dayquan! He watched my dog Rexie for a week, sent photos and updates everyday, and took great care of him! I love that he not only took him on his daily walks but also fun outings around the city. I would absolutely trust Dayquan to watch Rexie again.”


5. Lindsay P.

“Lindsay has been so great with my pup Alfie! He is SO excited to see her every time! She is extremely flexible and clearly takes care of my dog like he’s her own! I feel safe knowing he’s in good hands!”


6. Zwany & Leandro C.


“I’ve booked with Zwany and Leandro before and I cannot recommend them enough! They are kind, responsive, and will care for your pets like they are their own!”


7. Rachel S.

“Rachel took such good care of our dog Jax and provided plenty of updates and photographs. We will definitely ask her to watch Jax again and would highly recommend!”


8. John C.

“Hunter had a great overnight stay with John. John took him on several walks and made sure he was fed and comfortable. Our dog sometimes gets anxious and John knew how to calm him. John gave us regular updates and photos. We appreciated the reporting for Hunter's very first overnight with him. TY John!”


9. Kaitlyn D.

“Kaitlyn gave S’mores her meds while I was away (which wasn’t something we had discussed in advance because I only found out she needed them that morning!) and S’mores was happy when I picked her up. Kaitlyn was very accommodating to her needs.”


10. Jieming C.

“As dog owners, we all know how hard it can be to leave our little ones behind when we travel. I’m so happy to have finally found someone I can trust to ensure Edison is loved and cared for while we’re away. Jieming and his wife, Lauren, are incredibly caring, kind, and thoughtful. They took excellent care of Edison and kept us updated with constant photo updates. From the pictures, it was clear that Edison was receiving so much love, having fun, and truly happy. I highly recommend them and will definitely book with them again!”


11. Jo & Adam C.

“Jo and Adam took great care of my 2.5 year old cavapoo. Sent photos each day with updates and I felt like she was in good hands while I was out of town for 3 nights.”


12. Brendan V.

“I couldn't be more pleased with Brendan! This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so glad I found him. He was incredibly attentive to my dog Kobe's needs and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. Brendan kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. He went above and beyond to ensure that both Kobe and I felt completely comfortable. I highly recommend Brendan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for your fur baby!”




13. Wanda R.

“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”


14. Laura S.

“Laura has watched my dog twice now, and she’s been great. She is very responsive and reliable! I feel comfortable with her taking care of Daisy.”


15. Ilya V.


“Ilya was phenomenal with our dog Olive. He gave her a lot of attention, taking her on many walks every day. Olive typically goes on hunger strikes when we're away and that she ate so much of her food every day is the best testament to the care Ilya offers.”


16. David N.

“David was great with watching my dog, Pauly! Pauly would say so too if he could—haha. He was super responsive and flexible with my busy schedule. He sent lots of pics and updates, which I was very appreciative of. Would definitely recommend!”


17. Adriana P.


“Adriana and her family took such good care of Tippy! She sent a ton of photos and videos, and I could tell he was having a blast with them. She was also very communicative, asked questions to make sure she understood his care instructions, and did everything to make sure our dog was comfortable. I’m sure Tippy can’t wait to hang out with them again! :)”


18. Dohwee K.

“Dohwee was wonderful - he took special care of Leia sending me daily updates and photos which I so appreciated. He was proactive and reached out to ask about tick medication given the change in season and was happy to pick up the medicine from my vet. Leia seemed happy and fulfilled when I went to collect her and I would definitely enlist Dohwee's support again!”


19. Princess & Maximillian S.

“Princess was SO great with my fur baby. She set up a video call very promptly and was highly communicative both before and during the visit. She also took him for an outdoor hiking adventure (with advance approval), so I know that he got plenty of exercise, love, and attention while in her care. Princess followed his care instructions perfectly, and I received photo/video updates daily while away! I would highly recommend Princess’ services and have added her as one of my favorites to find her easily in the future.”


20. Tyler S.

“Tyler and his fiancée did a fantastic job taking care of Soka again. They were very communicative throughout the stay and even handled both pick-up and drop-off, which was a huge help. We really appreciate the care they showed and look forward to booking with them again in the future!”
