“AMAZING. If you need someone reliable and that goes beyond this is your sitter. She picked up my request last minute. Ann-Marie provide detailed reviews. She took out my girl to parks and different locations. I 100% recommended Ann-Marie and I will be rebooking with her when I need someone to watch Kilala.”
“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.”
“Mengyao is a fantastic walker and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of her services. We booked her on short notice but even still, she was able to accommodate last minute, was highly communicative, and asked thoughtful questions in advance to make sure she was well equipped to handle my two dogs—one of which can be a difficult walker. On top of that, she put me at ease by sending many videos and photos throughout the walk, which was very much appreciated! We will definitely have Mengyao walk our dogs 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.
“Kristen has been phenomenal with our dogs! I was initially nervous about having a dog walker, but Kristen has communicated constantly letting us know everything that happened each day. She sends very detailed updates with lots of cute pictures. She also has gone above and beyond cleaning up when our puppy has accidents and taking both of our dogs on long walks. I feel good knowing that she takes such good care of my babies while I’m away at work.”
“Caroline was great to work with! She was very communicative and worked with me to find a good time to meet my dog and take him for a walk. He was very happy and tired when he got back. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Caroline again!”
About: I have been caring for dogs for friends and family for years. Whether it’s walks, trips to the vet, feeding time, or just cuddles at night, I make sure every pet feels happy and loved while their owners are away. I work remotely from home, which means I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends. I always follow your instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent from feeding schedules to playtime and cuddles so they feel safe, happy and loved wherever they are.
About: I have Volunteered at Angel Memorial through High School. I have Experience with Dogs Ranging from Pups to Elderly dogs. And Except All Breeds ( Pitbulls and Chihuahuas!!) . I am very familiar and ok with dogs who are very active/loud,pulling,nipping aswell jump! 🙂 I have a very Flexible work schedule and love to use it to spend time with things I absolutely love especially furry friends! I also love walks!! I feed when scheduled I make sure to get all rules your dog follows on a daily. Makes sure i secure all doors that need to be.
About: I'm a huge animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets! I have a cat of my own, so I understand the care, patience, and attention pets need each day. Growing up, I had all kinds of pets (cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, and birds) which gave me experience caring for animals with different personalities and needs. I've also helped care for dogs, and I'd love the opportunity to give your pet plenty of love, playtime, and companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time and have flexibility throughout the week with gaps in my schedule. Because of my flexible schedule, I'm also often able to accommodate short-notice requests for added convenience whenever possible. This allows me to be available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need rather than feeling rushed. Spending time with animals is something I enjoy, so pet care feels like a rewarding part of my week. I always aim to care for pets in a way that keeps them comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In a client's home, I follow their pet's usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), litter box or cleanup care, and plenty of attention and companionship to help them feel at ease while their owner is away.

“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.”

“Maggie checked in with my dog Freddie to walk him twice a day when I had day-long intensives I had to attend. She was communicative and thoughtful throughout and I trusted Freddie in her care! Thank you, Maggie!”
About: My husband has had dogs all growing up and misses them! He is very good with handling and loving them. We would like our kids to have the same experience and exposure, while giving your pet care while you’re on vacation! We have taken care of friends’ dogs while they’ve been away and one suggested that we sign up for rover - so here we are! I work full-time at home and would love to take walk breaks with your pup! We have 3 young kids (ages 7, 5, and 4) who would love to play in the morning and evenings in the backyard with the dog and learn skills on taking care of pets at an early age. My husband would love to stay up petting your dog while he watches tv! We have active weekend schedules with sports events and social activities, and we'd love to bring your pup along or meet them back at home afterward for down time and movie night! We are lucky in the city to have a long driveway and 4-car garage with secure yard bordered by fence and stone wall. We live on a street with sidewalks. We are always in the driveway and garage - the dog would be welcome to explore! We live two blocks from Roslindale Square and are always walking in that direction to the library and shops.

If you’re looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter, Cynthia is the one! She helped me out when I was in a tight scheduling situation and was able to fit me in on short notice. Milo was a little grumpy at first because he hadn’t seen her in a while, but Cynthia was patient, understanding, and somehow won him over. She handled everything with care and professionalism. She even came back the next day to walk Milo for me, which I greatly appreciated. I am so grateful for Cynthia’s services and the peace of mind she provided. She is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the pets she works with. I will absolutely continue to use her services in the future. Highly recommend! 😘
Although it was her first time meeting Terry, she handled him with ease and took him on a great walk. She made sure he was comfortable by taking short breaks and offering him water when needed. She communicated with me throughout the visit, asked if there was anything else Terry might need, and followed all of my requests. I really appreciated her care and attention to detail.
AMAZING. If you need someone reliable and that goes beyond this is your sitter. She picked up my request last minute. Ann-Marie provide detailed reviews. She took out my girl to parks and different locations. I 100% recommended Ann-Marie and I will be rebooking with her when I need someone to watch Kilala.
