“Hannah did a fantastic job with our 2 dogs for a week-long stint. She sent lots of great pictures and notes and took great care of them. She is clearly responsible and on top of things and a good communicator. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Jeff did a great job with our cat. He was attentive, friendly, followed directions and gave us timely updates. Our cat has some special needs due to his age and health and it didn't phase Jeff in least -- he has an older cat of his own and he knows how to work with cats. Please don't hesitate to contact him for your cat's needs.”
“Amanda was extremely flexible with her scheduling. I had 2 sitters in a row cancel last minute for today’s sitting job. Complete lifesaver and Thor absolutely enjoyed his time with her! Can’t thank her enough!!”
“Salina did a great job with my dog. My dog was particularly anxious this weekend because we have very recently moved but Salina handled it well and kept me updated on the situation.”
“We love Kyla and so does Melon! Kyla has become our go-to sitter, taking pristine care of our pup, our home, and our fish. She is so clean, respectful, communicative, and sweet! We will (of course) be booking Kyla again for our next trip!”
“Words can not express my gratitude. I am eternally thankful. Donna becomes one of my family. My animals loved her and wanted to be around with her. I have 4 cats and one dog. Two cats are very sick. One with a heart murmur and another with diabetes and pancreatic abcess. They need constant care, medications, insulin shots, and heart murmur shots twice a day. I thought we would never find anyone willing to be with 5 animals and take care of sick cats with medications and shots 24/7. But , luckily, we found Donna. She retired pharmacists, and she did everything like most animal caretakers would not. Make no reservation. Donna is simply the best. We couldn't possibly even dream about anyone can handle this with such a care and dedication. We have contacted many Rover Stars, but they didn't even come close to our very complicated demands, but Donna not just did what she was ased for but exceeded all our expectation. She is the dream come true for any cats or dog owners!”
About: I have been around every kind of animal since I was a kid but I have always favored dogs! I love every size and energy level of dog! I enjoy training and will be going to an accredited training program next year! I give my boss my hours every Saturday so if I know what you need by then hopefully I should be able to accommodate you! I have a fenced yard and 4 dogs that will mostly be separated from your dog! I will crate the dog when i’m not with them if that if what you would rather!
“Cannot recommend her highly enough. I have a very high energy dog with a couple issues and my girl took to Monica like she was family the moment they met. Her regular updates and pictures put me at ease that both of them were having fun. This was my first Rover experience and I couldn’t be happier. Will definitely recommend and book her again”
“Amanda took great care of our 2 rambunctious doodles and 2 cats. She made us feel completely comfortable leaving them and they were very well taken care of. Looking forward to being able to use her again!”
“Excellent! We felt completely safe leaving our shy rescue with Julia. She was attentive, very caring, incredibly responsible and kept us informed through the whole stay with texts and pictures. Very pleased with our first interaction with Julia and Rover.com”
“Halle is top-notch! 10/10 recommend. We went away for 4-days and Halle made us feel completely comfortable leaving our two (sometimes pain in the butt) dogs with her. We feel lucky to have found someone so trustworthy and loving to our pups.”
About: I've always believed life is better with fur on your clothes and after years of caring for my own pets, I turned that passion into something bigger. Now I get to spend my days doing what I love most: caring for your four-legged family members while you're away. I make sure your pet gets the attention, love, and care they deserve. As a lifelong pet parent myself, I get how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family. That's why I treat every cat and dog like one of my own with patience, playfulness, and lots of love. So whether your dog needs a walking buddy or your cat needs someone to chat with while you're out, I'm here to help with a leash in one hand and a lint roller in the other. Fully insured. I am devoting all of my time to dog walking and pet sitting, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pet. I am happy to come to your home to care for your pet for either dog walking or pet sitting. I will care for your pet as if it were my own!
“Kelsey was truly fantastic. Her communication is top notch and we felt completely comfortable leaving her with our dogs. The dogs clearly loved her, and Kelsey loved on them as if they were her own dogs. Looking forward to having Kelsey stay with our dogs again!”
About: I have been a lifetime animal lover, and grew up with dogs as soon as I was born! I've had both larger dogs - a dalmatian and smaller - a schnauzer. Now my husband and I have a medium sized Australian Labradoodle! I would be so excited to come walk your dog or drop in for a visit while you are away! I am experienced with both puppies and older dogs. I am a teacher with full availability this summer; I am very reliable and ready to communicate fully for your peace of mind whether you are working or traveling in June, July or August! I am an elementary school teacher off for the summer, so I am fully flexible to give your pet the care and attention it deserves! I would care for your dog like it’s my own! I am very considerate and if dropping by your house I would treat it with respect as well.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and I now have two (yes, two) diabetic cats that require a lot of love and attention! I have 3+ plus years of injection (insulin administration) experience. I currently work fully remote in Medfield, Ma and have the flexibility to plan my work days around your pet’s needs with increased availability in the early and late hours. I have used Rover for my own cat sitting needs for many years, so I understand the level of trust placed in a pet sitter - caring for your fur babies and entering your home. I will be respectful of your home and kind with your children!
“Kim is amazing! We hired Kim to sit our puppy and two cats while we were gone. You can tell she truly loves animals! Kim sent us photos and was a great communicator! Our puppy can be a little wild but Kim was fantastic and gave her the absolute best time! I would highly recommend Kim and would book her again in a second!”

Ashley V.
“Ashley is incredible with pets. We had a cat for most of her childhood. She loved that cat and spoiled him rotten. She was always playing with him, carrying him around like a baby and cuddling up with him. Our next pet was a bulldog. When Ashley went away to college, she would actually call to talk to the dog. Whenever she came home, we had to let the dog out to greet her because the dog would get so excited to see Ashley she would pee! When she got married, she got 2 cats in the bargain. Even though those cats technically belong to her husband, they're HER cats. They both have health issues including insulin-dependent diabetes and Ashley takes care of them like they're her children. I can't imagine anyone would take better care of someone's pet than Ashley. Her love for animals knows no bounds.”

“Kim is amazing! We hired Kim to sit our puppy and two cats while we were gone. You can tell she truly loves animals! Kim sent us photos and was a great communicator!
