“Andrea is very caring when taking care of my pup. He is a very particular one and he felt very comfortable and loved by her. Very thoughtful and even added to his toy collection (it is his Favorite baby). I would highly recommend her to care for your fur-baby!”


“Halley was an incredible dog sitter / house sitter for us! She was so communicative and sent multiple photos of our boy every day. She even brought in the mail for us and tidied the house when she left. Huck was so mellow and happy when we returned giving us even more peace of mind that he was at peace while with Halley. 10/10 will use her again :) thank you Halley!!”


“Isabella was great! She texted me with updates and stayed with Eevee the whole visit. Eevee is anxious and barks sometimes and Isabella was understanding of her small Pom energy 😂❤️ I defiantly will book her again!”


“Toni is amazing! Excellent with communication and you can tell she’s an animal person right away! Kala warmed up to her very quickly and she sent us pictures and updates from the time she got to our home to when she left. Our home was left in excellent condition and every instruction followed perfectly. We will definitely use her in the future and Kala has a new best friend ☺️”


“Ashley was so fantastic to have stay at our house and take care of our three dogs while we were away this weekend! So professional and loving to our fur babies! We’ll definitely book her again! 😃”


“Krystal is a five star sitter from start to finish! Excellent communication, good energy and attitude, and so sweet with our two dogs. We really appreciated her willingness to do a meet & greet before her first sit with us, this gave us so much peace of mind knowing we were leaving our home and fur babies in great hands. She arrived on time, departed on time, and she was self-reliable throughout the sit. We loved the pics she sent us. We would have Krystal back any time!”


“Samantha was a wonderful sitter for both our pets and our home. We have never left our pets with a sitter before, and she came over and spent time with them beforehand, making sure they felt comfortable with her. She managed two dogs and one cat, with two of those pets being on different medications (both oral and injected) with no issues. She sent tons of updates and checked in with us constantly! She left our house very clean and followed every instruction we gave her. We are thankful we found her! I would definitely hire her again.”


“Kathryn stayed at our home for 12 days taking care of our three chihuahuas. She was incredibly helpful, communicated well (including sending photos and videos of our dogs every day), took great, loving care of our dogs, and left our home clean and ready for us when we returned. We would definitely recommend and we will be requesting Kathryn's help next time we travel!”


About: Hello! We are a family of animal lovers. I work from home so your pets will be with someone for most of the day. My partner is a veterinarian at TUFTS so we can provide a safe and fun space for your pets I work from home so I will be able to watch your pets for most the day/stay. They might be alone for 2-3 hours top We will follow owners instructions and make sure each pet feels comfortable. There are beds and playing areas where they can enjoy and relax while staying with us

“Kevin was GREAT with my dogs! His girlfriend is also a Rover sitter so my dogs had the pleasure of being with them both. I received so many photos and videos. My dogs looked like they were smiling in the photos. And on my down time while away, when I started to think, “I wonder how the dogs are doing?”, I’d see they already texted me with an update. They were super responsive and helpful. We had requested house sitting and staying overnight with the dogs. Kevin brought in our mail, cleaned up any extra dog hair on the floor (my dogs shed ALOT) and they kept the house pristine. They took very good care of our home & our pups (and even fed our fish and watered our plants). I highly recommend!!”

About: I have taken care of pets for 8+ years. I have a pup of my own and couldn’t love her more. I am super flexible with my job and can’t wait to live on your pets too. I am reliable, responsible, and will make sure your pets have the best care. I have a flexible schedule and will provide whatever care you want for your pet. I can come as much or as little as you need. I will adjust my schedule to fit with caring for your pets :) I will treat all clients homes with respect. I do not care for pets out of my own home because I live with others. I will make sure to clean up after myself and make your pet feel just as comfortable with me in your home.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and truly understand their unique needs and personalities. I’ve cared for dozens of dogs, from playful puppies to wise seniors, and currently have dogs of my own that I love dearly. This hands-on experience has taught me how to provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each dog’s individual needs—whether it’s training support for puppies or gentle, patient care for senior dogs. My passion for dogs means I treat every furry friend like family, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a big part of my life—I’m available most days and all daytime hours throughout the week. While I work a few night shifts, I make sure my schedule allows plenty of quality time to focus on caring for your pets during the day. I’m flexible and reliable, so your furry friend will always get the attention and care they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. For boarding, I provide a warm, loving environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and regular walks to keep them active and relaxed. During walks, I focus on exercise, exploration, and bathroom breaks, tailoring each walk to your pet’s energy and needs. For drop-ins and house sitting, I maintain your pet’s regular routine—feeding, play, bathroom breaks, and lots of affection—while making sure your home stays secure and clean. My goal is to make every pet feel at ease and cared for just like they would with you.

“Leaving reviews like these are always bittersweet. One hand Evan was a perfect sitter for our two Boston’s. The other hand, out pups have been spoiled and we have to live up to their expectations now. Evan provided us with daily updates, photos and videos. Our dogs and place were in great hands while we were away.”


“I would hands down most definitely recommend Geily for any pet service needs you may have. Geily is very professional and thorough. She took care of all of our dogs and our cat. My home was left clean and tidy, and the animals were well taken care of. Geily was excellent at communicating. Our animals absolutely adore her. I was so nervous because the last and first time we left our animals with someone, one of them ran away.(He returned after the longest week of our lives ❤️) Geily, has given us a piece of mind and great comfort throughout my trip. I’m so grateful for her and she will ALWAYS be our first choice. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH !”


“We were very happy with the care Gabi provided for Tommy! She followed all of our instructions carefully, sent us daily updates, and made us feel at ease while we were away. We could tell Tommy was well taken care of, and we truly appreciate her dedication and kindness. Highly recommend!”


“Laura is the best pet sitter we’ve had. She took care of all our fur babies - 2 cats and 2 dogs - like her own. One of my cats is a rescue who doesn’t warm up to people she doesn’t like but with Laura she was super cuddly! Laura has also been extremely respectful of our house and kept it in great condition. I highly recommend her to anyone who loves their pets :)”


“Kathy was great with our Belle. She sent updates, was a good communicator, reliable, and followed all instructions. Our shy pup warmed up to her well as she stayed overnight at our place. We would highly recommend her anytime.”



“Quinn was a lovely surprise. From the first minute we meet him we could tell how well our dog would be taken care of and he did not disappoint. We NEVER. leave our dog with anyone but circumstances lead us to look for someone in a fast turnaround. Quinn was accommodating and flexible. Our dog was wonderfully taken care of. HIGHLY RECOMMEND”


About: Dog care experience for 15+ years (personal, friends, & family). Puppies to seniors; outgoing/playful and shy/timid. I have a fenced in yard to play, but also prefer to take my dog (& those who stay with us) for at least three 20+ minute walks a day. Currently working remotely, so I am home most of the day. On the rare days I do go into the office, I come home for lunch break - so I am only gone for a maximum 5 hours at a time. My dog is a 4-ish year old mix (>20 lbs), unneutered male. He is very friendly, loves to play and share his toys. It would be best for our pets to meet prior to an overnight stay, so you feel most comfortable.
