“Cressida did a great job taking care of Musia. She sent us daily pictures of Musia and it was great to see our cat happy. She was quick to respond to our questions and we felt very comfortable while she was taking care of Musia. On your return Musia was in very good mood :)). We would highly recommend Cressida!!”

“Caroline was a great pet sitter! The dogs were happy and the house was spotless when we got home from our trip. Appreciate all her hard work, even taking the dogs outside during a snowstorm! Planning to hire again immediately. Highly recommended.”

“Rida was absolutely wonderful! She was so patient, kind, and caring with Kitty, and I could tell she truly loves animals. She took great care of him and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Amy was amazing! She house sat with my cat Louie for a week and was so good about sending updates, videos, pics. She gave Louie lots of love and attention, I’m so grateful to have found her”

“Eleanor did a wonderful job looking after our two cats while we went away for a few days. We came home to happy cats and a clean house. While we were away, we received consistent communication and pictures of our kitties to let us know all was going well. We highly recommend Eleanor for house and pet sitting!”

“Rev was great in taking care of our two girls for a week. We got images of them and updates. When Pepper got sick, she kept us updated so that when we took her to the emergency vet the day we arrived we had the details of when it started. The house was clean when we arrived and you can tell she treated our girls well :) Fig panicked and cried when Rev said goodbye and left when we got home so that says a lot!!”

“Kept a close eye on my elderly dog with a heart condition. When something looked amiss, she contacted my vet and took my dog to Angel Medical. Chloe's back home, looking good.”


About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I miss them while I am at college, I am organized and clean, and would love to take care of your pups! I am a student at Boston College, so I have class during the weekday. I’d be able to be with the dog before class early in the morning, and after - anytime after 3pm! Weekends I am completely available, your dogs are my priority! I can hang out with them/take them out as much or as little as you’d like. I would treat them as if it is you in your own home! They will know comfort, warmth, fun, and joy if I am pet sitting them.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and grew up learning how to care for them with patience, consistency, and love. I’m very comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I also have a cat, so I understand the unique needs and quirks that cats have. I’ve administered medication to my dog and my cat. For years, I’ve been who my friends and family reach out to for a pet sitter. My schedule is very flexible, so I can make myself available whenever needed, whether it’s a pop-in or a week long overnight stay. I love animals so I’m happy to accommodate my schedule to your needs. I’ve taken care of young cats and dogs my whole life so I’m confident I’ll be able to provide yours with a safe and comfortable experience.
“Olivia is great! She was very communicative throughout the booking process and even accommodated a last minute request. Olivia warmly greeted my puppy and took her time to introduce herself to him as well as become acquainted to what his needs would be for the evening. I was very confident that my pet was in good hands and would work with Olivia again should the opportunity come up!”

“Charlene was great with our senior dog Jasper. She took the time with him that he needed to be he happiest he could be. The house was spotless and Jasper enjoyed her attention.”

“Thanks so much Daniella for taking care of our dog Aspen and our cat Amari. We appreciated the daily updates, pics, and videos to check in with us and your responsiveness was top notch! We look forward to working with you again in the near future and would recommend you without reservations. Thank you again!💜”

“Hanna was my first overnight sitter for Clementine! She was very thorough in updates and made accommodations to work from home with Clementine while I was away. I would highly recommend her and will use her again in the future!”

“Elizabeth (Betsy) was amazing for our house sitting this weekend. She took amazing care of our dog. She gave picture and video updates throughout the weekend. Our neighbors even complimented on how good Betsy was with her. I highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been a professional dog sitter for over 3.5 years. I have experience staying overnight, managing households with up to four dogs at once, and maintaining consistent routines to keep them comfortable and happy. I’ve also cared for my own dogs, handling everything from walks and feeding to vet visits and administering medication when needed. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely love spending time with dogs — whether that means playtime, long walks, or quiet companionship. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. Pet care is naturally a part of my daily routine — I plan my days around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and affection. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a task — it’s something that brings structure and joy to my day. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, following their pets’ routines exactly to keep them comfortable and happy. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any medical needs such as medication or inhalers. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and attended to while maintaining the home’s cleanliness and security. My goal is always to give your pets consistent care and companionship so they feel calm and happy while you’re away.
“Wanda was fantastic with our dogs, including our puppy with pretty significant separation anxiety. She was great to work with and offered to arrive early to get to know the dogs before we left. We will definitely have her care for the dogs again!”

“Angelique was absolutely wonderful with GSD Izzy. She was prompt, reliable, consistently communicative and went above and beyond to ensure my dog was constantly entertained and exercised.”

Needham Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Savanna is a gem! We are so fortunate to have found and met her through Rover. She stayed with our three-yes, 3! English labs and one special little fish for seven nights. We came home to find them all very happy and clearly well taken care of. Plus our house looked like no one had been here, but better! She is a reliable, thoughtful, and warm caretaker.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our two dogs received! From the very beginning, Creddida was professional, communicative, and clearly experienced with handling multiple dogs at once. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which really made us feel relaxed while we were away. It was obvious our dogs were not only well cared for but genuinely happy and healthy! We highly recommend Creddida to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring dog sitter. We will absolutely be booking again!
