“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.”

“Thank you so much! Jana was great- showed up when she said she would, was wonderful with Clodagh and had great communication and hand off. Thanks so much!”


About: I have taken care of friends’ dogs during trips and overnight visits, feeding, playing with, and walking them. I love spending time with pets and am open to caring for any type of dog. I’m currently looking for temporary work and have a lot of free time! Available for day visits as well as overnight, whatever is needed. I am a gentle and adaptable animal lover and I enjoy playing with, caring for, and spending time with dogs and cats of all kinds.
“Elsa had a great walk with Gabriel, despite all the rain and mud! I appreciate his patience with Elsa, and was happy to show Gabriel how we do our walks! I believe Gabriel has a real appreciation and love for dogs which is what matters most!”

“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.”

About: I was always raised with some kind of animal in my house weather it was a bird, cat, dog or even snake. I have a lot of experience with animals. I love being around them and they are good company for earlier morning walks, or just walks in general. Since I am young I have a lot of energy to offer on walks and just taking care of the pets in all. Life gets busy out in the world so it is understandable if sometimes you don’t have enough time to walk your pet or play with them, so let me be the one to help. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I can work anytime before 1pm and after 6pm weekdays. I care for pets by being attentive and loving. I love being around animals and want to make sure they are always safe and in good hands.

About: Hello, my name is Stacy and I’m a new pet sitter/dog walker on Rover. I’ve sat for friends and family since 2011 before sitting professionally for 3 years. I’m hoping to work with pets with special needs, pets under 1 years old, senior pets, pets that require oral or injected medication, any of the like. I’m available for pets without these attributes as well! Why book with me: I pay close attention to detail. I once pet sat for an engineer who had a page of instructions on how to care for his multiple pets and plants in his home. He had specific lights that needed to be turned on at certain times for the plants. He had two cats that ate a specific portion of raw meat that had to be frozen and thawed in a certain way. He had a large box of cat food delivery periodically that needed to be frozen and “tetrised in” to his freezer. Food portions were half in the morning and a whole plus a half portion in the evening. Garbage and recycling needed to be taken out on specific days. Cats needed their catnip (but not too much)! I remembered and did all of this! I’m the person you want for specific instructions for cats, dogs, whatever you need! For drop ins and walks, I’m free every day. For sitting, I’m generally free on Mondays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays! If you’d like for me to sit on a day I’m not typically available, let’s talk! I’m actually a new business owner so you won’t need to worry about me getting double booked or held up by a job! I follow instructions to a T! If I don’t understand something, I’m not shy about asking questions until I fully understand you and your pets needs!
“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!”

“Maggie is wonderful with my puppy Alfie. She takes him out for a walk daily; she is super professional and reliable. I know she loves Alfie like he is her own. We had a great meet and greet with her to ensure Alfie would be comfortable with her. I always get updates and photos from the walks. I know with absolute certainty he is in safe hands.”

“There’s truly no one else I would trust with my dog more than Michael. He’s kind, caring, and so thoughtful with Oliver. My dog absolutely adores him! you can tell they have the best time together. Michael always sends great updates and the sweetest pictures that make my day and give me peace of mind knowing my dog is in great hands. He’s incredibly reliable, always on time, and very responsive if I ever have any questions or last-minute schedule changes. I’ve been working with Michael for a long time now, and it’s been nothing but a wonderful experience. He really goes above and beyond! from drying Oliver after rainy walks to remembering little details about his routines and quirks. I honestly don’t know what we’d do without him. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Daisy took amazing care of our pup! She took her for daily walks while we were away. She was prompt, caring, and gave wonderful updates! Will definitely be using Daisy’s services again.”

“Tanya did a great job taking our boxer Nala on daily afternoon walks. She was great at communicating any changes in her schedule with me, flexible to meet my needs to care for Nala, and always polite and professional. Thank you so much for you help Tanya! It was comforting knowing that Nala was in good hands while we were away.”

About: Hello there👋🏼! My name is Arianna! From a young age, I have owned and raised cats and dogs! I currently own two dogs, a pitbull and a chihuahua along with four cats & a rabbit! My love and passion for animals has always been one of my biggest personality trait. Every time I would go to my grandmas house as a child,I would immediately start looking for her 2 chihuahuas so I could lay on the couch and play with them. My love for animals is so strong that even at the ripe age of 22, I still get excited about going to the zoo and aquarium!! I remember as a kid I wanted to become a veterinarian and take care of animals. I still want to pursue my dreams of taking care of animals. I find that the presence of my own pets and animals in general makes me feel so happy. The connection between me and animals is just incredible. I treasure the bonds I make with animals. It makes me feel really good inside to know that I can make animals feel special, loved, cared for and wanted by me! I find so much joy in spending time outdoors with dogs enjoying their company. I find a lot of happiness in laying around and cuddling kitties! Overall I just love giving fur babies love and attention!! Im passionate about tending to the needs of our kitty and doggy members. Witnessing the bond and trust that develops between a pet and myself over time is a truly special and magical experience. Aside of being a pet owner who’s lived in Boston my whole life, my passion with pet care really started in 2022 when I came in contact with a very sweet outdoor cat who just loved to be held and rubbed! My passion for pet care also stemmed from all the numerous sweet and loving dogs I’ve met while on my walks around my neighborhood. I also have experience working for a dog walking company and have also walked dogs in my neighborhood. 2 of my recent reviews are the neighbors I’ve walked dogs for. I’m a stay at home mom who has a lot of time on her hands. I’m available Monday-Friday from 9am until 2pm to give your fur baby lots of love and attention! No last minute appointments accepted. I can service the Jamaica Plain, Hyde Park & Roslindale areas! In a client’s home I can clean and pick up any mess that needs to be cleaned. I can change dog and or cat bowls with fresh water and food. I can also give your dog(s) & kitty’s snuggles and affection! I can make sure your fur baby feels love , wanted and affection from me!🥰
“Madison is great! She is super responsive and was very flexible and accommodating with my fairly last-minute request. She is clearly very familiar with dogs and dog behavior and knew how to handle my pup who can be leash reactive with other dogs. Plus, the cute pictures were a nice bonus :) I would definitely recommend!”

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.
“Denzel was excellent! He was very communicative, did everything we asked, and was very patient and kind when our pup was initially nervous when he came over. He kept us informed and sent pictures. We would definitely recommend him and will be reaching out again!”

Roslindale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nick is very pleasant and he responded very quickly to the request for a dog walker for my two beagles. It was a very smooth process to set up an appointment that worked for me. He came for a meet and greet which allowed me to feel confident that the dogs would be fine with him.. Nick arrived on time the day of the walk and was very responsive to Copper and Casey.needs. I will definitely reach out to h8m for dog walking 8n the future!

Jasmine was great! She was very attentive to Theo and made sure to carry him up and down the stairs to avoid injury, gave him his food and washed his paws after the walk. I highly recommend Jasmine as a dogwalker! I will be requesting another dog walk from her soon.

Jana was awesome! She took extra time on the first day to let our pup warm up to her, which didn’t take long. She was also very thoughtful and conscious of his cues in challenging winter weather and spent extra time with him indoors when he didn’t want to be outside. Would love to have Jana back for future walks!

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!
