“Gina was so wonderful! She was so good with Gremlin, who is a big pittie and can be a lot to handle. She also went above and beyond and dropped him back off when I was having car trouble. Sent pics, super sweet and communicative, would recommend and rebook!”

“Hyesoo and her husband were such kind and caring hosts for our Maltipoo! They were extremely accommodating and took picture updates that really delighted us and let us know he was in good hands. I can see why she has 51 5-star reviews!!!! Thank you Hyesoo!”


“This was our first stay with Whitney and Dave and their fur babies. While it began a bit rocky with my dog fitting in to their family and routine all worked out after a day or two. My dog was safe and well cared for during his stay.”

“Eddy watched our dogs, Henry and Albert, last minute and absolutely saved the day. He made the whole process super easy — handled pickup and drop-off, sent plenty of photo updates, and kept us in the loop the entire time. His communication was excellent and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. You can tell Eddy truly loves what he does and treats every dog like his own. It’s rare to find someone that reliable and thoughtful, especially on short notice. We’ll definitely be booking with him again and would highly recommend Eddy to anyone looking for a sitter they can completely trust.”


“What a lovely family. It was hard to leave our wonderful dog, but we were so happy to see the fabulous care, attention, exercise, and fun lavished on him. We received plenty of photos and salient communication about meals, walks, human and canine interaction. It was as much his vacation as it was ours. We enthusiastically recommend Tara and her fantastic family to care for your pet.”

“Eric was quick to respond and agreed to watch Wally at the last minute, which was super helpful. He was attentive to Wally's needs and sent photos throughout the day, keeping us updated on his stay. Eric has a super cute dog who seemed easygoing even when Wally got a bit exciteable at pick-up/drop-off. We would absolutely have Eric watch Wally again. Thank you!”

“First time we’ve left our dogs with Stefan & Elvia and the first time we’ve left our dogs at all since covid, so we were a little uneasy with all of it, but we were quickly out at ease seeing how this family cared for dogs in their home. They clearly made every pup parr of their family while staying with them. Our younger dog has never been without us and waa clearly sad but she spent most of her time in bed with one of their children until she grew some confidence and decided to play with the other dogs. We hate leaving our dogs behind but could not have been happier with the care and communication. We will gladly use them again the next time we can’t bring the pups with us”

“Kaitlyn was incredible! Not only did she accommodate Annie on super short notice after a last minute cancellation, but she took phenomenal care of Annie and made sure she was as comfortable as possible during her stay. Provided regular updates, gave Annie her medication on time, and gave her plenty of exercise. Couldn’t recommend Kaitlyn more!”


“Kristina is awesome. She has taken care of our dog multiple times over the past few months. She is communicative, responsible, and trustworthy, it's easy to see how much she loves animals, and we would recommend her to anyone.”

“Kaisa was AMAZING! She took fantastic care of our dog and sent us incredible photos (one of which we think we’ll frame). She was incredibly communicative and friendly. We’d definitely ask her to sit again!”

“Julie did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Cal! He is usually shy and fearful of strangers, but she was incredibly patient with him and soon coaxed him out of his shell. Julie also did a great job of sending us a constant stream of pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”

“Shuping is the best! She looked after my bird with so much attention, kindness, and love, and sent pictures that brightened my day. The stress I had about leaving her behind completely went away once I knew she would be happy and looked after during that time! Thank you so much, Shuping!”

“Shuhua is very caring and takes good care of my dog. She is responsive and considerate- she always sent the photos of my dog to keep me updated. I recommend her.”

“Alanis took such good care of my baby boy, Leo! She sent me updates throughout the day, and Leo looked so clean and happy and in shape when I picked him up. Without a doubt, I will always reach out to Alanis whenever I need help with Leo from now on!”

“I strongly recommend Michiko and Clifford. I truly appreciate how well they took care of Juju. She always looked so happy in the photos they sent me. Juju seemed comfortable, relaxed, and joyful the whole time. They took her on wonderful walks around the neighborhood, to the hills, parks and through nature. I feel so lucky to have found them. Thank you so much for everything”

“Sunny gave us the best wedding gift of all: peace of mind while we were away for a week! We were unable to bring our beloved pup to our venue, but she was well loved during our time away. We received routine photo updates and messages, and could tell that Pep was right at home with Sunny and Eric. They are the best!!”


“Paul is just the best. Very communicative and makes pick up & drop off super easy. Love the frequent picture updates of our dog’s staycations. Gives us peace of mind that Thomas is getting constant care and attention when we’re out of town. Thankful to have found Paul on Rover and I know Thomas is, too! Highly recommend.”
“Tyler and Meichen were awesome with Milo! They kept sending us pictures, took him for multiple walks and it was clear he was super happy and having a great time. They really took great care of him, and we felt so at ease knowing he was in good hands. I’d totally recommend them to anyone looking for dog sitters—they’re the best!”

Newtonville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Anna took exceptional care of my dog over a long weekend. It was clear when my dog got home that he had a relaxing and good experience with her and Kuma. She sent so many pictures and updates while I was away! I look forward to the next time she can watch my dog because I know he'll have a great time and she'll give him all the love and care he needs.

I had a great experience boarding my cat for a last minute weekend away. They made sure my cat was comfortable with a separate room (since he has dietary restrictions), equipped with a cat tree, bed, bowls, and litter box. They were able to administer his medications easily. Communication was consistent & I got photo and video updates throughout. I was able to have an anxiety free weekend and my cat got a vacation too! I will definitely book next time I need a sitter.
