“Angie was absolutely fabulous with our pup! She was so caring, sent plenty of adorable updates, and treated Maisy like her own. It was clear our dog loved her, too! Without a doubt, we’d love to book with Angie again. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup and our apartment!”

“Belen was kind and patient with our dogs. First time we ever had someone take care of our pups and we felt completely confident and comfortable that they were in the best hands!”

“Victoria did a great job with Freya (who can be very shy and anxious with new people). She kept me updated with pics and texts throughout the session. I would definitely trust her to watch Freya again!”

“Anna was great with Lucy! She was very communicative and flexible. When our flight was canceled she stayed an extra night to watch Lucy. We will definitely be using her as a dog sitter in the future!!”

“Exception! Kristina is great with our pup. Very proactive in keeping us updated. It’s clear that she has a special bond with dogs. We would highly recommend her.”

“Georgia took care of Duck for 6 days, and I came back to a happy dog :) she is so reliable, really quick with responses, and sent me photos and updates while I was away. I could tell that my dog was calm and happy when I returned and the house was spotless! She even left the cutest crochet hat for Duck 🥹”


“Bethany stepped in to pet sit for us last minute, and we are so thankful for that. She took excellent care of our pup and our home we highly highly recommend and she will be our first request for all future needs!”

“Katherine was a rockstar from start to finish. We just moved to the area, and so we had to find a new sitter for our cat, Moose. Moose absolutely loved Katherine and warmed up to her within minutes. He was playing with her on day 1, and it took prior sitters multiple visits before he even thought of touching a toy. Katherine gave multiple photo and video updates during her visit, and was super communicative of any issues. She stayed overnight and treated our home as her own. We will definitely be asking her to sit for Moose again!”


“Amy has done a great job taking care of our two cats and our house. This is the third time she's stayed here, and we plan to hire her again. She clearly loves cats, and we can tell our guys like her too.”

About: Hi! I’m Jenny, a nursing student and lifelong animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including my own senior husky, so I understand how important patience, attention, and a comfortable routine can be for every pet. I’m reliable, caring, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, lots of attention, or simply some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have and provide plenty of updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while your pet is in my care. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 Even though I have a pretty busy school schedule, I always make room for pets! I spend a lot of time studying, so I love having a furry study buddy nearby to keep me company. I’m happy to take study breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of attention. Having pets around makes my day better, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my routine. I care for every pet based on their normal routine and what makes them feel most comfortable. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of walks or playtime, and of course lots of attention and cuddles if they enjoy that! I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have, whether that’s medications, crate routines, potty schedules, or certain behaviors to watch for. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Belkis did a great job taking care of our two cats for ten days. She stayed in our apartment, sent pictures every day and played with our kittens to keep them engaged. Thanks so much for taking care of our kitties!”

About: I’ve found my love for taking care of pets since I was 4 years old. From caring for my first pet as a child to being an aunt to my best friends cat in PA school, I am highly trusted to provide high quality care and unconditional love for any pet in my presence. My schedule is flexible! I’m a physician assistant, so my weeks are a mix of clinic and administrative work. Depending on my schedule, I’m able to stop by before work, during lunch, or after work. I’m also happy to do stay-ins when needed! My weekends tend to be especially flexible as well, and I’m always happy to work with your schedule and accommodate your pets’ needs as much as possible :) My current living space is not equipped to offer care at my home, but I will care for any breed/size/age dog in a client’s home. I am adaptable and willing to do any tasks needed to ensure the pet feels loved, happy, and comfortable.
“Levi was AMAZING! We were so lucky she had availability when we booked last minute. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and their behaviors while being very patient and understanding with our nervous rescue. She sent many pictures to keep us at ease while we were away and left the house cleaner than when we left! Chanel typically doesn’t clique with new people but she was so happy with Levi, we are so appreciative!”

“Ailise is awesome! She was flexible with our last minute modifications. She took care of two of our dogs with very different needs and personalities. She took great care of our home while we were away as well. We were a little nervous leaving our dogs for a weekend with a sitter but we couldn't be happier!”

“Anna was excellent with our two very different dogs. She was able to comfort our more anxious dog and get him to eat, and she was able to calm our more energetic dog! Would definitely recommend and will rebook”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 14 for family, friends, and for friends of friends. I absolutely love all animals and would be thrilled to care for your pets and to treat them like my own I currently WFH full time. I have availability in the mornings and evenings as well as during lunch breaks and the occasional odd hours during the day given some notice. I am also available on the weekends. I live in an apartment where pets are certainly welcome for visits for shorter periods of time, but unfortunately it isn’t the best space for overnight stays. When it comes to your home, I am more than happy to follow any and all special rules or routines you and your pet have!
About: I took care of three cats growing up, two that required injections and one that required medication with varying diets and needs. I also have a loving beagle to add to my experience, as well as a kitten. In college, I dogsat for a professor with a 12-year-old poodle that required medication and frequent check-ins. I've owned and taken care of a variety of pets, all ages and genders, and am confident that my experience will allow me to give your pet the care they deserve! I am currently unemployed and can pop over to take your dog for a quick walk, or even just check in throughout the day, any day of the week. I can also housesit as needed, given my flexibility. Given my building restrictions, I will not house your pets. However, I can visit your home as needed to make sure your pets are loved and cared for just as much as my own.

About: I used to have two dogs and a cat along with many other random animals. Have always loved pets, just not in a place to have my own at the moment but would love to help others! I work full time, but I am available at night and on the weekends to help out with your furry friends! We can work together to find a schedule that works for both of us. I live in a one bedroom apartment in a managed building. It is a very pet friendly building and has a fenced in area for dogs. We also have a grooming station.
The median cost per night for house sitting in North Dorchester is $63

I booked Natalie at the last minute for a four-day stay with my dog Yoshi, a Cavalier, and my cat Sparky in Boston’s Leather District — and she made the whole thing effortless. Despite the short notice she was extremely responsive and immediately offered either a virtual or in-person consultation. We met the day before the booking started, and I felt comfortable with her within minutes. She handled everything Yoshi and Sparky needed: walks, medications, and feeding, and photo updates. She even offered to change the linens and tidy up so I’d come home to an easy landing. She left my home spotless! If you’re looking for a caring, courteous, concierge-level house sitter, Natalie is who you want. Highly recommend.

Marangela was absolutely wonderful! She was able to pet sit for us last minute, and from the very beginning, she was so communicative, responsive, and reliable. She took such great care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout her stay, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her help and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future! Highly recommend Marangela!

Laura was absolutely incredible and took great care of our dog and 2 cats. She was very communicative and responsive, and sent us daily check ins and pictures. Our animals looked so comfortable with her, which made us feel much better leaving them. She was also so respectful and clean in our home. Laura is an exceptionally caring pet sitter and took great care of our animals, I highly, highly recommend her to anyone!

Vika was our first dogsitter on Rover and she was great. My dog has pretty bad separation anxiety and Vika helped him through it. When we came home, our dog was happy and healthy. Normally, if I go out of town for a couple of days, he gets stressed out after I get back, too. Not this time. He behaving like he normally does. I would definitely ask Vika back again.

Chandler was wonderful with our two boys, Bruce and Barry, while we were abroad for a week. She was attentive and communicative the whole time, sending daily photo updates that gave us total peace of mind. Our boys are couch potatoes and she spent quality time with them, which is exactly what we wanted. She also left our place nice and tidy. We’d absolutely book her again and highly recommend!

Emily was such a dedicated and attentive sitter— I highly recommend her! She took amazing care of my dog, Palmer, and sent photos every day. She took her on long walks and provided her with enrichment activities and cuddles for all 5 days that she was with her.

Bethany was great! She house sat for us and our two Boston terriers, sent lots of pictures, and took great care of them and the house. All pet parents know how stressful it is to leave your furbabies behind and it was such a relief knowing they’re in good hands.

Willow was wonderful!!! I needed to find someone last minute due to a death in the family, and Willow came through big time! She made the time to come to my apartment before I left to meet me and my pup and even took her for a walk the same week, just to make sure my dog knew who she was and she could familiarize herself with my dog and my home. She was a clear, effective, and wonderful communicator and companion to my dog when I was out of town, and I swear she left my apartment cleaner than when she arrived! I can’t wait to have Willow back to help with my dog, and I would highly recommend her to help out with any other pets!
