“Victoria (Rev) did a fantastic job and I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. She was easy to communicate with prior to & during her stay and sent frequent updates and pictures of the pups. She stayed in my home & left it very clean- She even took out the trash which I didn’t expect her to do annd appreciated. My pups are kind of high maintenance (2 Maltese) & Rev did a fantastic job taking care of them. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”

“Marilyn is a fantastic sitter and considerate homestay. She took great care of my two cats (and my home), and they really liked her based on the numerous pictures she sent where it appeared they were following her around, and not just to the wet food. What's more, Marilyn goes above and beyond. When I left for my trip and Marilyn was to begin residency the following day, my neighbor texted me and showed me that there was a window situation where a cat could escape. Even though her duty started the next day, Marilyn made a special trip to confirm cats were safe, and to fix the window situation. She even washed the bedding and towels I had left her so I wouldn't have to do it when I got home, and she generously allowed my to book two more nights of her care when I wanted to extend my trip. Marilyn is very caring, considerate and flexible. I will definitely be requesting her services again. I recommend her highly as one of the best Rover caretakers I have encountered.”

“We can not say enough good about Luis and the care he took of our two pets: Baloo (a 4 year old hound dog) and Soupbelly ( a 8 month ish old kitten). We were out of the country for a little over three weeks in which Luis attended to every need of both pets. In addition to the usual care, he also took Baloo to nearby off leash parks, which is his favorite thing to do. In addition to graciously sharing his bed with both pets he spoiled them with treats and outings and kept us up to date with lots of pictures, which were so appreciated. Being so far away, it was a relief to know our pets were so well cared for and loved in our absence. And last but not least, he took great care of our house which was an added bonus!”

“Belkis is fantastic! We were so grateful to find her last minute! She was incredibly helpful, reliable, and took such great care of our pup while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals, and we’d absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Angie was absolutely fabulous with our pup! She was so caring, sent plenty of adorable updates, and treated Maisy like her own. It was clear our dog loved her, too! Without a doubt, we’d love to book with Angie again. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup and our apartment!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Ailise! She helped me out last minute this weekend, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. From the moment we connected, she was responsive, kind, and genuinely caring with my dogs. It was such a relief knowing my pups was in great hands while I was away. Ailise went above and beyond with updates, photos, attention to detail, and making sure my dogs felt loved the whole time. You can truly tell she cares about animals and treat them like family. I came home to happy, relaxed dogs and I’m so grateful for the care and flexibility she provided on short notice. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and compassionate dog sitter!”

“Sarah provided phenomenal house sitting care for our anxious dog. She was very reliable and responsive and calmed our nerves with multiple photos and updates throughout the week. Highly recommend!”

“Julia took excellent care of my dog (and condo!) while my husband and I were out of town. She proactively made sure she knew all of the details needed for his care and comfort ahead of my trip. She also sent me great updates throughout so I knew he was safe and happy. My dog was in good spirits when we got home so I am very confident he was taken stellar care of! We are thrilled with his care and would highly recommend Julia as a dog sitter!”

“Belen was a wonderful sitter for our 80 lb German Shepherd puppy. She’s personable and has a kind and calm personality - perfect for our energetic guy. We highly recommend Belen and will book her the next time we visit Boston.”

“My cat was sick and she gave me updates and spent time to feed her and take extra care. This is the second time she has stayed at my house. The first time was just over 2 weeks. She left my house in perfect condition and the cats were so much happier than when I only have someone stop in to feed them. 🩷”

About: I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ve been caring for my family’s two dogs who are now 14 and 12 years old, since they were puppies and continued helping care for them until I moved away for college. That experience has made me comfortable with dogs of different ages and taught me the extra patience and attention senior dogs often need. In addition to caring for my own pets, I helped a friend with house and dog sitting over the course of a summer, giving me experience maintaining a pet’s routine while making sure they felt comfortable in their own home! My main goal is to make every pet comfy and happy, whether that means extra cuddles or sticking to their typical routine, I will care for every pet like they’re my own! I’m currently working part-time, mainly morning shifts, which gives me flexibility for afternoon, evening, and overnight care. I’m also available on weekends and will always prioritize accommodating your pet’s schedule! I love being around pets and strive to provide a safe, calm and loving environment. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a spacious room, and just a short walk to a dog park in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks and outdoor time. I also have a tall, fenced in balcony where pets can safely enjoy some fresh air (under supervision). When caring for pets at their home, I always follow their established routines, special instructions and needs. I treat every home with respect and am happy to send photos or videos to provide updates!

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.
“Claudia was wonderful with our Luna girl. She communicated frequently with photos and clearly loved our baby! Highly, highly recommend and hope to have her stay with Luna again!”

“Tommy was a fantastic sitter for Pearl while I was away! They were very responsive to my texts and I got plenty of updates throughout my trip. Pearl got ton of attention and cuddles and Tommy was very neat and kept the house tidy. I’ll definitely have Tommy care for Pearl again in the future!”


“Lindsay took such great care of my cat Naomi! She was extremely professional and responsive, and she was so helpful even with some very last minute changes/housesitting needs that I was stressing over. Also had no trouble administering Naomi’s medication and was so attentive to her daily routine. I really appreciated all the detailed updates and cat pics!! I would happily have her catsit for us again :)”

“Kristina did a great job housesitting and taking care of my senior dog. She gave me real peace of mind. My dog can be both timid and stubborn and Kristina had a lot of patience with her. Within a few hours my dog was trusting of her which was a great sign. Kristina went above and beyond caring for my dog including the precautions we take with her mobility issues. Kristina provided tons of timely communication with texts and photos. She left my home clean. I’d recommend Kristina to anyone who’s nervous about leaving their dog with a sitter.”

I had a wonderful experience with Victoria (Rev). We recently moved to Boston and Rev stayed in my apartment with Charlie for 5 nights, which is the longest I have had to leave him since moving. Charlie is older and has been a little anxious while adjusting to our move and it was clear that Rev gave him the love and attention he needed to keep him calm while I was away. Rev sent regular updates and photos, which helped keep my mind at ease. My flight was delayed and Rev was super accommodating to stick around until I got home. I would absolutely recommend Rev to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and truly exceptional dog sitter. We look forward to working with Rev in the future!

Al is amazing! She house sat for us for 4 nights/5 days, and she took wonderful care of our home and our 3.5-month-old beagle puppy. We set up a meet-and-greet with Al a few weeks before her stay, and we knew we would be in good hands from the moment we met her. Our puppy instantly gravitated towards her, too, and enjoyed playing with her and snuggling with her. Al was communicative throughout her entire stay at our house, sharing text and photo updates with us each day. She’s fun, caring and responsible, and we’re so grateful we found her. We highly recommend her!

Georgia took care of Duck for 6 days, and I came back to a happy dog :) she is so reliable, really quick with responses, and sent me photos and updates while I was away. I could tell that my dog was calm and happy when I returned and the house was spotless! She even left the cutest crochet hat for Duck 🥹

Tommy did an excellent job keeping our elderly dog happy, safe, healthy, and loved while we were gone. I had a lot of anxiety leaving the dog behind this vacation, but Tommy did a great job putting my mind at ease. He left the house in great shape and communicated daily throughout the stay. Tommy will be our first choice next time we need a sitter!

Stacy was a pleasure to work with! She spent so much time with me during the meet and greet, making sure she understood the needs of my two Bengal boys. She did a great job taking care of them while I was away. One of the boys had just had an injury before I left and she was so attentive, making sure I got pictures of the wound to make sure everything was ok. She was great at sending pics in general, which was wonderful. Highly recommend Stacy!! I've already booked with her again :)

Lindsay took such great care of my cat Naomi! She was extremely professional and responsive, and she was so helpful even with some very last minute changes/housesitting needs that I was stressing over. Also had no trouble administering Naomi’s medication and was so attentive to her daily routine. I really appreciated all the detailed updates and cat pics!! I would happily have her catsit for us again :)

Julie is an incredible sitter - our favorite Rover experience we've ever had! She house/dog sat for us for 4 days and provided very frequent and descriptive feedback each visit and took such fantastic care of our pups. She went above and beyond in helping us deal with a traumatic incident that occurred prior to the sitting. She also had to clean up a poop explosion (sorry!!) and then provided poop reviews for the rest of her stay, something I very much appreciated as a worrier dog mom. Cannot recommend her highly enough! Also her photos were wonderful. Thank you a million Julie, we will be in touch again soon!

Sarah was fantastic. She took Luna on fun adventures, gave her lots of attention, and made sure she was well cared for the entire time. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our Luna was happy, active, and loved. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter.

We had a great experience with Jess! She stayed with our cats for two weeks and was very responsive and communicative throughout our trip, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She took great care of both our home and our cats, and they were happy and relaxed when we returned. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter, and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again in the future.

I cannot say enough great things about the exceptional care and love my pup received in Jesse’s care. This was the first time we traveled without our high activity, people-needy 18 month old pup so my anxiety was high. Jesse went above and beyond, caring for Willow in her home and making her part of the family. Daily updates with pics and videos assured me that Willow was enjoying her vacation too. I could not imagine better customized care.
