“I can't recommend Alyson enough! We met ahead of time so she could get to know the boys and the house set up. She was super communicative and wrote thorough reports and took lots of photos. I felt totally assured that our cats were in great hands, including the one with diabetes. She already feels like a friend.”
“Lizz is great! She took great care of my dog, Butterscotch while I was away and also checked on the house and fish. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Sarah was attentive to my cats needs and sent me photos everyday. I really appreciated the piece of mind she gave me knowing that my cat was well taken care of during my trip.”
About: I have been a dog owner for many years, with a major preference for small dogs. Not only do I have lots of experience caring for my own pets, but I have sat and cared for the dogs of many different friends and family, as well as those I don’t personally know well, over the years. I am patient, loving, always try to have fun with the dogs, and always try to give them the best care possible. I’ve had dogs all my life. I got my first dog, Lukey, when I was young and he was my best friend. Originally got him for my mother to keep her company, but fell in love with him myself and made him my own once she passed. I’d take him through the woods on walks and we eventually became inseparable. He passed at age 18. Eventually I met a woman who had two dogs of her own and they became like my kids. I had them for many years, although sadly they are all passed now as well. Currently I help care for two dogs with my ex who lives in the apartment below me, as we are still good friends. I make sure they are well cared for and take them out regularly. I love to play with them. I take dogs very seriously as they are like family to me. I can currently work Monday-Saturday, with exceptions. I do have to schedule around some minor things early in the morning, and those take priority, and those can be discussed, but otherwise I’m completely free. I love animals and always try to give them 100% of the love and attention they deserve. I feed them, walk them, take them out and play with them, and always try to give them my best. I’ve always treated my own dogs as if they were my children, and I extend that to any dog I care for.
“Yanira took amazing care of Ruthie! She can be shy with new people but came out for Yanira, great to get the daily photos! I would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have cared for my own pets for many years and have experience looking after family members' pets as well. I currently care for my four cats and previously helped care for my sister's dog by providing feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. Caring for animals has always been important to me, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I am committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I work full-time during the week, but I am available for pet care on the weekends. I understand the importance of consistency and communication and will work with pet owners to ensure their pets receive the care and attention they need. I am happy to provide updates and photos during visits so owners can feel confident their pets are doing well. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests from owners. I understand that pets can become stressed when their owners are away, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment. I also believe in regular communication and am happy to provide updates and photos throughout my visits.
“Katie is so nice and very professional! Joni warmed up to her right away, and I can tell she is going to be in great hands when Katie visits her! I’m so grateful, thank you Katie!!”
About: With my 6+ experience with pets I feel I am equipped for check ins, walks, overnight stays, etc. I’m willing to be flexible in order to accommodate you and your pets needs! I am a teacher full time and rover is something I use to fill my free time! Come summertime I will have more availability for boarding, check ins and walking! Please reach out if you have any inquiries! I am flexible and have great problem solving skills to accommodate any situation that may arise. I have great communication as well for anything that the pawrents might need while their pet is under my care.
About: Hey, I’m Xavier! I love animals, and I’m lucky enough to have a flexible job that allows me the time to care for your furry friends. I’ve always loved and cared for animals. It's truly second nature to me. My last dog was a beautiful brindle pitbull mix named Coco who had an unexpected stroke, which left her back legs paralyzed. For years I did everything from changing her diaper and daily walks to aquatics, specialized dog food, and homemade meals. I take the health of animals as a priority. Animals are like our children, and we treat every pet with the individualized care we would give our own, as they deserve. My home is cleaned by 100% ALL NATURAL ingredients, so your pets will be safe from harmful chemicals. I am very familiar with supporting health conditions such as muscular complications and ear infections, and we are 100% FLEA FREE! We both work from home and are available all day for your pets. Your pet will have all the attention and love that they need! From morning jogs to administering medication, we make a schedule pertaining to your dogs specific needs. We are respectful of your property and will follow any specific instructions if given.
“James was an excellent caregiver for my cat. He came over early to see the house and meet Finbar, sent nice updates and pictures. I would be happy to use his services again.”
About: I grew up in a home with dogs, cats, bunnies, hens and roosters. I have never lived without caring for an animal! I love being outside, going for walks, playing and gardening. I am a mom of two school-aged boys and a proud owner of two tuxedo kitties whom we adopted nine years ago. I work part-time in the afternoons as an outdoor preschool art specialist. I am free between 9:30 am, and 1 pm everyday, and Wednesday and Thursday until 3 pm! I may also have early evenings free starting at the end of June. I have plenty of time in my schedule to help you care for your animals. Looking forward to meeting them! I am fun, gentle, playful and caring, and have a good instinct for what dogs and cats need. I can read body language and am sensitive to energy. I look forward to learning more about your pets from you, getting to know them and forging a relationship.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who truly enjoys caring for pups of all breeds and personalities. Throughout my life I've been so fortunate to care for three dogs from the days we first brought them home as puppies to their last days. I feel very comfortable caring for dogs of all ages. Spending time with and caring for my friends' and family's dogs has always been a big part of my life. I treat every dog like my own, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I offer dog walking, daycare (at your home or mine), and boarding (again at your home or mine), and regardless of your pup's needs they’ll be in caring hands. I look forward to taking care of your dog! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I can easily accommodate daytime walks, playtime, and love to have a dog-friend close by while I am working. Whether it's for day care or an overnight, how I care for your dog can be tailored to your dog's needs. I have frequently stayed overnight at the owner's house, including places pretty far from my own home. Several of the photos in my profile are with dogs that I cared for while traveling! Your dogs' safety, health, physical activity needs, dietary needs, and need for snuggling (or need for space if you have a less social or timid pup) are really what's most important. In my home you are welcome to bring a crate, your dog's favorite toys or bed, food/snacks, as well as anything else your dog might need. We also have a very large sectional that we bought with dog-snuggling in mind, but if you have any rules with your dog that are important for me to reinforce, I will absolutely respect that.
“Karen was amazing! Super communicative and reliable - she also went above and beyond in cleaning up when our kitty made a mess and send great photos and videos that helped us feel comfortable and confident in her services. We could tell our kitty appreciated her visits as well!”
“Maggie is incredible! She is responsive, caring, attentive, and enthusiastic. She always sends updates and pictures, and is very easy to work with. So far I've booked with her twice for drop-in visits while I was away, and everything went smoothly. I will continue to seek her out in the future! :)”
“I'm very thankful for Wanda because I was away overseas and my previous sitter had to cancel.. this was not a situation any pet parent should ever be put through and I was able to get ahold of Wanda who came to the rescue even without me being there to show her the procedure for taking care of my 2 cats. (Granted, I had a Youtube video giving an overview of the process and I gave her the codes to my lockbox and my home alarm which all went smoothly.)”

“Megan was so lovely and communicative!! She took great care of our cats while we were gone for 4 days and handled basic needs and a few special requests. Our new go to cat sitter :)”
“Ann Marie is a wonderful pet sitter! She is very communicative, responsive and thinks ahead to anticipate your dogs needs! I am a professional dog trainer and finding quality pet care for my own dogs can be hard but Ann Marie went above and beyond to ensure our pups were happy, loved, and well cared for!

Readville cat parents share their Rover experiences
Alyson, was outstanding taking care of our 2 cats, very detailed oriented with all the task. The picture we're very helpful. She also went above and beyond taking care of emergency to our house. Our family cannot say enough about the great job she did taking care of our house and our 2 cats. .
Absolute pleasure working with Emma, she went above and beyond when we got stuck away from home because of the blizzard. Thank you for braving the snow and the wind to keep them happy and fed! We finally made it home to find happy and well taken care of cats. Thank you so much and we look forward to trusting our cats with you in the future, I'm sure they will be excited to see you again :)
This was my second time asking Susannah to watch my cat. My cat loved her the first time and this time was no different. Susannah was prompt with communication about her visits. She sent photos and made sure my cat got to play, eat, and drink regularly. I have no qualms about Susannah watching my cat and think she would be an excellent sitter for other cats and dogs.
Karen was amazing! Super communicative and reliable - she also went above and beyond in cleaning up when our kitty made a mess and send great photos and videos that helped us feel comfortable and confident in her services. We could tell our kitty appreciated her visits as well!
Mengyao stepped in last minute when our sitter canceled during Christmas. She was incredibly responsive and communicative. She sent lots of great pictures, videos, and updates during her visits. Our pets loved her and were very well cared for. We can’t recommend Mengyao enough! We are looking forward to having her watch our babies again.
Maggie is incredible! She is responsive, caring, attentive, and enthusiastic. She always sends updates and pictures, and is very easy to work with. So far I've booked with her twice for drop-in visits while I was away, and everything went smoothly. I will continue to seek her out in the future! :)
