“Gabriel is great with our dog. He has taken time to bond with her so she looks forward to their walks. He is also very communicative and will let you know any problems immediately. He is dedicated and will work to solve any problem.”

“Debra was scheduled to walk my dog 4 days one week while I was away and due to bad weather we canceled 2 of the days. She was flexible with scheduling a meet and greet, very communicative all week when some hiccups arose, and very loving to my dog. I’m booking her again asap!”

“Maeve was excellent. She was always on time to get Copley and he very much look forward to the walks. She also took very great pictures of their outings which were awesome to see.”

“Emily is fantastic. My pup loves her and she has been nothing but great help!! She also writes cute notes as well, which I really like. It did put me at ease when I am away from my dog. Don't hesitate. I'm sure you will love her too.”
“Gaby has been so great with my dog, Lily! She has been giving her walks multiple times a week for the last few months and has been nothing but reliable. She is very responsive and communicative and has even been able to help me out with caring for my dog on short notice at times! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker or petsitter!”

About: I am a Boston nurse looking to spend some time caring for dogs on days off! My schedule is very flexible and open! I typically work 3 days a week so I have many days off!I am open to staying in house to care for the dog! I love walking dogs and helping with house training and play. I grew up with an adorable yellow lab and have helped many families in town with their pets as well. I absolutely love pets (cats and dogs), I love the outdoors and would be more than happy to take pets on several walks throughout the day! I am very trustworthy, responsible and reliable. I will always be on time and energetic to spend some time with your pet! I typically work 3 days a week so have plenty of availability. My schedule is flexible and with notice I am available for longer periods of time! I make sure to always keep dogs on a leash while out and about. Prior to sitting I make sure I have a good understanding of the animal.

About: I have been doing Rover for around 4 years now, I’ve taken a break earlier this year, but my schedule is now open for new bookings! A little bit about me: I’ve always been passionate about animal care since I was young. I’ve worked with/owned cats, small animals, and dogs of all sizes and breeds. I took part in a vet assistance course in college, volunteered at my local zoo, and worked at a pet store for a bit before joining Rover! I’m experienced working with disabled, elderly, and medicated pets. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood (Roslindale) , with plenty of trails and parks for dogs to experience. I also have a spacious grassy backyard that is fully enclosed by a large fence. I currently have a cat in the home that stays upstairs for most of the day, and never interacts with the pets I board. Getting to know your pet: Meet and greets aren’t necessary, but it would be helpful giving me insight about your pet. Some things I would like to know specifically include: - Does your pet take any medications? - How is your pet with other animals? - Is your pet potty trained? - Dietary/allergy restrictions - Feeding and walking schedule - Certain behaviors to look out for During your pets stay, I will include consistent updates and photos to ensure your pet is in good hands! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my services! I do rover Full-time at the moment, so I am home most of the day. I can cater to pets who cannot be left alone for more than a few hours. I have a fenced in yard, with grass and plenty of room to run around and play! My house is also air conditioned in every room, and there are more than enough couches and beds for your pet to lounge on! I currently have a friendly cat, she tends to stay upstairs ! I provide Lots of balls, toys, bowls, blankets, and chewing toys for the pups!
“Morgan and Meaghan were great! They were very easy to work with. On top of that, they were very flexible with our last minute request. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a good dog sitter.”


“Catarina is a wonderful walker, and Winslow just loves her! She’s attentive and sends photos to update us on his walks; she’s also flexible with schedule changes. We will definitely continue to use her for our sheltie’s needs. Highly recommend!”

About: I offer lifelong experience with high energy dogs and structured care. Growing up with two family Vizslas from puppyhood to adulthood, I understand the dedication, patience, and mental stimulation required for active, sensitive breeds. I am a recent graduate currently waiting to start a new job in Boston this upcoming September so I am free full time during this transition period. Safety, security, and peace of mind are my top priorities when caring for your pets in your home. I treat your space with the utmost respect and strictly follow all custom instructions from precise feeding schedules and medication routines to house rules and secure door/gate checks.
About: Hi, my name is Richard. I grew up taking care of my family’s pets, I love all types of animals but cats and dogs hold a special place in my heart and being around animals has always been second nature to me. I took a break from Rover this past year while I moved and focused on work, but I’m fully back now with an open to give your pets my full attention. I currently work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. That means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they need throughout the day. I believe each animal deserves their own personal care and routine, whether it’s walks, playtime, or just relaxing together. With me, your pet will always feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. I have a flexible career working from home. This means I’m always around to give pets the attention they need, whether that’s a morning walk, midday playtime, or just keeping them company throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left waiting for care. I build my schedule around making sure they feel happy and comfortable. I will care for your pet like it is my own. Whether it is in my home or yours I will ensure that they are comfortable, well loved, fed and played with.
About: I’ve been doing freelance sittings and dog walking for about two years now. I’ve always enjoyed caring for canines/felines of all breeds, some even with handicaps or special needs. Once I communicate with a pet’s parent and make sure I fully understand their baby’s tendencies and needs, I use those to create a comforting bond between the pet and I so the parent can remain focused on whatever task has them away from their love, and the pet can have a comfortable wait on their return. Pet care is something I do for free a lot with neighbors pets and my own, all the time. My weekends, and weekday evenings are free. I follow all instructions, and make sure all pets needs are communicated clearly. Attention to detail is especially crucial when caring for dogs with particular needs.

About: I follow the guidelines of the owner. I am "present" (not distracted) with the dog. I am consistent and caring. I am very aware of the dog's behavior in the range of other pets and people, and adjust our path and pace accordingly. I am recently retired and my scheduled is flexible between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. unless I have scheduled time on the water to sail. Currently, I walked my neighbors dog. When I enter, I am careful to close the door immediately and take time to greet the dog (Mazie, female). I am attentive to details when putting on her harness for both security and comfort. While walking, I follow the instructions of the owner relative to the proximity of other dogs since Mazie is a rescue and can become agitated by other dogs. Maize heels very well for me while we walk and I believe she appreciates that I do not listen to music or use my phone while we walk. I converse with Mazie to ensure she feels companionship as well as experiences exercise.
About: I’ve had pets in my life for over 26 years, and I’m a true animal lover through and through! I can stop by your home to care for your dogs and cats during the day, whether that means going for a walk or run, playtime, feeding, or just checking in to make sure they’re happy and comfortable.

I have experience with many different dog breeds—from corgis and chihuahuas to labs, blue heelers, and German shepherds—as well as caring for cats with all kinds of personalities. I’d love the chance to give your pets the love and care they need while you’re away! Available when you need and love all animals, big or small, walk-drop ins- sitting-etc. Happy to be your go to rover. Contact me for me scheduling details I am a per lover, have had many pets all my life: dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish. Your pet will be 100% safe and cared for as if it was my own!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Roslindale
We’ve had such a great experience with Jonathan! He is reliable, caring, and attentive, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing our pup is in such good hands. It’s clear how much he cares about the pets he works with and we’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our little guy. Highly recommend!

Gaby has been so great with my dog, Lily! She has been giving her walks multiple times a week for the last few months and has been nothing but reliable. She is very responsive and communicative and has even been able to help me out with caring for my dog on short notice at times! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker or petsitter!

We got our Dog two months ago, and Kelly was her first outside walker. Our dog has been apprehensive with strangers in the past, so we took a graduated approach, which Kelly (and Hershey) were very receptive to. We appreciated how Kelly was patient with Hershey and read her body language well, and over the three walks Hershey became increasingly comfortable. Would absolutely book again!

Melissa was wonderful with our pup! It was clear right away how much she genuinely loves dogs and cares about giving them a great experience. Melissa went above and beyond to give extra attention and even practiced some commands with Ruggles. We really appreciated the extra effort and would happily book with her again!

Kristen was really great with our dog. The information she provided, via walk description and photos, was reassuring, and she went above and beyond bringing some homemade food when our dog was a bit too nervous from our absence to eat. It's good to know we have someone we can trust, the next time we need help!

Kayla was kind and communicative! She stayed with my pup while I went to an appointment outside of our neighborhood. She was so warm and friendly, and I immediately felt safe leaving my dog with her. I am so grateful and wish we lived closer so our dog could spend time with Kayla again!

Sarah exceeded our expectations. This was our first time leaving our girls with a stranger. In fact, we’ve never been completely comfortable leaving our girls with anyone. Sarah immediately put us at ease. She was absolutely amazing with them, and most importantly, they loved her! It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her care for them again.
