“Ainsley was absolutely amazing. She was willing to change to 2 visits a day at short notice when our cat needed to have antibiotics while we were away, and she managed to give her liquid medicine, which is no small feat! We were so impressed with her communication and professionalism, and if she'll have us, we'll definitely book with her again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Katherine and would absolutely recommend her. She came twice a day for a full week, spending an hour each visit, and was incredibly attentive to our cat’s needs the entire time. She made sure everything was taken care of, spent quality time playing with our cat, and clearly built a great bond with her. Our cat really loved her. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away knowing our cat was in such caring and capable hands. We would happily book with her again!”

“Samantha has been amazing. From our initial meet and greet to multiple visits with my kitten, she has been thoroughly communicative, polite, and professional. She has great attention to detail and went above and beyond in providing updates. She even put the cat food away neater than I had left it for her. As a first time pet parent, I felt very comforted that my cat was in kind and safe hands. Beyond feeding, I mainly wanted a companion for my kitten as she is young, and Samantha played with all her favorite toys with her. I’d trust her with anyone’s pet, and I can’t wait to use her services again. Thank you Samantha!”

About: I have been babysitting families with pets since I was 16, so I have much experience with caring for pets! I love dogs and get excited whenever I see one on the street. I am reliable and loving and will give your pet all the attention he/she needs! I am a bedside nurse working at Mass General! My schedule fluctuates week to week, but my schedule on here will always be updated with when I am available :) I care for my pet by ensuring anything that could be harmful is out of his reach. I also stray from feeding him people food and make sure he goes on a long walk at least twice daily. I provide him with love when he wants it and give him space when needed.

About: Hey there – my name is Nancy, and I’ve taken care of dogs the majority of my life. Starting with my childhood dog, Bandit, a mixed Shepard. As an adult I had a pit bull/boxer mix, Vedder. I had Vedder for 12 years. After Vedder, I had a beagle/boxer mix, Killian. I currently do not have a dog of my own. This gives me plenty of time to take care of your dog I am an experienced sitter, and did walker who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I’m currently not working. This gives me plenty of time to spend with your pet. I’m available both days and nights to watch, walk or play with your dog. To ensure the safety and well-being of pets under my care, I would first familiarize myself with each pet’s specific needs, behaviors, and any medical conditions. This includes understanding their diet, exercise routine, allergies, or medications they may be on. During walks, I would keep them on a leash at all times. Moreover, for both walks and sitting sessions, I’d maintain regular communication with the pet owners by providing updates and promptly reporting any unusual behavior. Maintaining vigilance, open communication, and being prepared for unexpected situations are crucial aspects of ensuring the safety and well-being of pets under my care. I am not a certified dog trainer, but I did successfully train my pit bull/boxer, Vedder, and my beagle/boxer, Killian. When you board your dog with me, you can expect a quality stay. Your dog will not only be well looked after, they will go on some cool walking adventures. I’m located near three beaches, and three parks. One of the parks has a bike/walking path. I keep the owner updated with pics and text. I also use a walking app that shows where we walked, how far we walked and how long we walked. When you leave your dog in my care, you can enjoy your vacation knowing that your dog is also having fun.

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.

“Tommy was wonderful with our two cats. They were especially patient with our elderly cat who needed more time to eat. They took their time feeding and playing with the cats, made sure the doors were locked, and were kind enough to bring in any packages that were delivered when we were gone. Would definitely contact again next time we need a sitter.”

About: Hi! I’m a full-time remote financial analyst based in South Boston with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable, attentive care for your pets. I’ve grown up around dogs (my parents currently have two black labs 🐾) and have experience caring for family members’ and friends’ pets, including walking, feeding, playing, and giving them lots of attention. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra playtime, I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I work remotely full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the day. I’m available for morning, lunchtime, and evening walks, as well as drop-in visits before and after work. On weekends, I have even more flexibility for longer walks, check-ins, and pet sitting. I’ll always communicate clearly and make sure your pet receives reliable, attentive care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your instructions regarding walks, feeding, medications, and routines to help your pet feel comfortable while you’re away. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, and updates with photos so you can have peace of mind. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will care for your pet and home with the same respect and care that I would my own.

Mary was so quick to respond to a last minute request for help (and Eric so even while flying back on a plane!) that it blew my mind!! She was able to drop by once she'd landed to meet the dogs and go over logistics. 10/10 would recommend, we got photos so quickly and my two dogs were tired and happy (and relieved lol) 😊

Amber was fantastic! I reached out with a last minute need for someone to check in on and feed our cat Oliver while we were away for a few days, and amber responded super quickly and was even able to come over the next day to meet Oliver and get the lay of the land. She took excellent care of Oliver, sending regular pictures and updates, and it was such a relief to know he had someone looking in on him while we were gone. Thank you Amber!

Rebecca is a life saver, and exactly who you want watching your dog. My sweet pup is an anxious rescue with trauma, and this is the first time she’s had a sitter. I was so worried about how she would react to a stranger coming in and taking her for a walk, I honestly wasn’t sure if it would be possible. Not only did Rebecca get her to go out on walks, she even got her comfortable enough to snuggle! I’m so grateful to her for sharing her kind energy with the local dogs, we’re all honestly so lucky that people like her are on this app!!

He was on time and very helpful. Highly recommend Nick's services. Thank you Nick!

Alexina was amazing! It was a pleasure working with her, from our pre-booking “meet and greet” to her final visit and kind note. She was incredibly thoughtful and communicative, making it easy to trust her with our three cats and our home. This was our first Rover experience, and I felt so reassured to find Alexina, someone we can really trust. Thanks so much, Alexina!
