About: Fully insured for your peace of mind. Dog mom to my pup Zephyr. Over 25 years of hands on dog experience. Reliable dog lover treating every pup like family and every walk like an adventure. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog mom to my lab, Zephyr, my days are built around walks, exercise, and making sure he is happy and well cared for. I structure my schedule to provide consistent, reliable walks and visits, so each dog gets the attention, safety, and care they deserve. I do 3 walks a day, depending on your dogs needs and physical limitations. I also provide mental stimulation activities to balance out their energy. I will not be hosting another dog while your pup is in my care because they are my number 1 priority. I have 1 very friendly 5 year old Labrador that gets plenty of walks, treats, kisses and love. Your pup will be very welcome in our pack!
“Eileen was wonderful with our pup! It was his first time with her and she made sure both us and him were comfortable. She was great communicating before and during his day with her. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Leo was provided extra special treatment. He definitely needed some fun with Nando. Communication was excellent and I got a number of pictures during the day. Drop off and pickup couldn’t have been easier. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook or to recommend these guys again.”
“Trish was an absolute delight! She was incredibly warm and caring and clearly gave our pup a lot of love and attention. We appreciated her communication and photos throughout the day. We’re looking forward to working with her next time we’re in the area!”
About: We have a large, very clean, and safe home with a big backyard. There are plenty of trails and sidewalks for walking around our house as well as a variety of parks nearby we can visit. I stay at home and will be available all day to supervise care for your dog(s). My three teenage kids will help provide care and are very responsible, loving, and diligent caretakers. Our own 2 small (4 lb) chihuahuas, Mocha & Lacey, are used to having other dogs around. When your dog(s) stay with us, you can be sure that they will be well loved, safe, and welcomed into the family as one of our own! We would be happy to keep you updated with pictures of your pet during his/her stay. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I currently stay at home and am available to care for your dog for most of the day. My husband also works from home quite a bit and helps as well. We have a large back yard but also love taking the dogs on walks through the nearby trails in the woods. Both my husband an I walk every day so there is plenty of opportunity for your dog to get out.
“Caroline communicates clearly and promptly. The scheduling was easy and she sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. Drop off and pick up were timely. My puppy has stayed with her twice and has seemed happy when I’ve picked her up. She has her own dog Willow at home as well- a plus for dogs wanting to play with other dogs.”
“Jaime and family were kind and communicative. This was my first time having her sit for Suzi Q and she made me feel that she was safe in her family's hands. It was also a plus that my dog got along with hers and Suziwas able to get out her energy in their fenced in yard.”
“Zach was great! Loved the intro call before dropping Morgan off and the update photos I got during her visit. He was communicative throughout the process and made me feel comfortable leaving my golden with someone, which is very hard for me, she’s my baby! The best part was when Morgan went back to say bye to Zach before leaving. It made me very happy and we’ll definitely leave Morgan with him again.”
“Our boy, Captain, had a wonderful day with Shelby! We felt bad leaving her with a puppy on a rainy day and were amazed when picked him up and he was tired. How??? What is this?? Clearly, Shelby has the magic touch!”
“Marjorie had a wonderful time at Alena’s house. We are traveling all the way from Minnesota and found her on the website in Weymouth MA. Such a hot day we could not take the dog with us to meet a friend. Alena made my visit with a college roommate possible. Alena sent lots of reports and photos. I strongly recommend Alena.”
About: Becoming a dog mom in January 2026 has taught me so much about caring for puppies and understanding their unique needs. Over the past several months, I've gained experience with potty training, crate training, daily walks, feeding schedules, socialization, enrichment, and all the energy and love that comes with raising a puppy. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet because I would want the same for my own dog. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog's personality and routine. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners confidence that their furry family member is in good hands. I work full-time on a hybrid schedule, with three days working from home each week. Because I have a young puppy of my own, I spend much of my free time at home and maintain a flexible routine. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. My puppy is still learning and can be a little shy around new dogs at first, but she is friendly and typically becomes more comfortable with proper introductions and time to adjust. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As a puppy owner, I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and close supervision. I carefully follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions. My puppy is friendly but can be a little nervous around new dogs initially, so I take introductions slowly and always prioritize a calm, safe environment. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is being cared for like family.

“I had Theresa watch my pup Henry for the day while I was visiting Boston. Simply put, she was absolutely wonderful.

Trish is a great communicator and wonderful sitter. My dog is a rescue so he has special needs - Trish has always taken care to be receptive, proactive and it’s so clear how much she enjoys working with all kinds of dogs. I really appreciate being able to work with her and to trust her with my dog’s care! Thank you Trish!
Murphy spent two days with Roxanne for doggy day care when we needed to be at work. She played with him in her nice backyard, and kept him engaged while also helping him relax in a new place. On his second time seeing her, he whined at her door and excitedly ran to see her. It’s clear she enjoys his company, and he also enjoys spending time with her. We will definitely consider booking her for any future needs.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Rockland commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
