“Tommy takes fantastic care of my dog during their daily walks! It’s great knowing my pup is in good hands, and Tommy always provides photos and updates. I highly recommend booking with this sitter!”

“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: Preferred Name: Del I adore animals, and as far as I can tell the feeling is mutual. Roommates, partners, and friends are always impressed by how quickly their pets take to me and jokingly complain that I'm "stealing" them away. I've cared for pets in my family since I was 12. I'm an enthusiastic walker and I'm adamant about keeping cats and dogs stimulated with playtime. Currently between jobs so my schedule is very flexible. As such, I'm free to devote all I can to taking care of your lovely critters. I make visits and house stays as appropriate. Meticulous about following pet care instructions to a T as you know your pet better than I ever could. Will make sure that your pet is stimulated, fed, loved, and cared for so that your absence goes hopefully as unnoticed as possible.
“Owen was friendly and dependable. We went on vacation and Owen was able to interface with my mother in law to walk our husky. I would recommend Owen to anyone and will use his services again in the future.”


“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!”

“Claire was excellent! She kept me updated and took some cute pics of my dog before/during/and after the walk. She even sent me a picture of my cat when she saw him after walking my dog. Highly recommend!”

“Alicia did a great job doing lunch time walks for a week on short notice. She was communicative, on time, and handled our rescue pup’s needs and tricky walking style extremely well! Would definitely hire again, and enthusiastically recommend.”

“Mirabel was great walking my dog! She was able to last minute walk him while I was in a bind trying to get him a walk while I worked! Would recommend her!”

“Nyla absolutely loves her walks/adventure time with David! She also has opportunities to socialize with other dogs in a regular basis which is so very important to me to her overall well being. I appreciate David’s understanding of this and ensuring that Nylas needs and her little personality are recognized and appreciated. He has also,(more than once) been flexible in taking Nyla on last minute occasions if needed. He is also very prompt in responding communication wise.”

About: I have a deep love and respect for non-human animals. Growing up with multiple indoor and outdoor cats and a family dog (a feisty miniature poodle!), I have developed a strong knowledge base of pet behavior. In my work as a pet caretaker, I look for and respond to behavioral cues and needs, allow space for pets to come to me and feel safe with me, adapt to pets' energy levels, encourage play, and bring a compassionate, patient, and responsible nature. I have most flexibility to take care of your pet on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Afternoons work well for me. Mornings depend on my schedule and pet parents' schedule. First, I greet the pet and check in on their overall wellbeing. If I am pet-sitting, I will take a quick look about their living environment to make sure that it is clean and safe. If I notice an accident or that the pet has gotten into something, I alert the pet parent. I take care of any in-home needs, and then I spend time connecting with the pet through play, attention, and treats (if allowed!). If I am dog-walking, I make sure to bring the pet's gear (leash, harness, poop bags, water, treats) and prepare a planned route.

“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.”

About: I have been a pet sitter for a couple years! Also, I have volunteered and interned at a veterinary hospital these experiences helped me become more informed on pet care. My main priority is providing your pet with the best care!! I will clean water bowl, provide fresh food and any further needs . I currently work a full time job but typically free Monday anytime before 8am and then again after 6:30pm, Tuesday and Thursday anytime from 9-11:30am and then again after 4pm, Wednesday, and Friday anytime from 7-1:30pm. For Saturday anytime in the day works for me and for Sunday anytime before 6am and then again at 3:30pm. My main priority is comfort making sure you are comfortable with entrusting your pet in my care and making sure your pet is comfortable with me. I will do this by allowing the pet to become familiar with me so they aren’t scared and providing treats as well as playful sessions to get them comfortable.

About: Hello, my name is Stacy and I’m 34 years old. I joined Rover because I love spending time with pets but I’m not in a position to have my own. Since having joined Rover, I’ve worked with reactive dogs, puppies a couple of weeks old, intact dogs and dogs having undergone surgery. I’ve also either pet sat or lived with Labrador Retrievers, Pugs, Poodles, Chihuahuas, Old English Bulldogs, Shih Tzus, Schnauzers, Irish Wolfhounds, Pitbulls, German Shepherds, Great Danes and others. This is aside from the cats, reptiles and tarantulas I’ve either sat for or interacted with during a long term period. As of April 2026, my longest stay (over two weeks) has been for a dog with cancer. It’s been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I’m available to sit, do drop-ins and walks every day of the week. I’m a small business owner in a separate industry and grateful for the flexibility. I generally require a 3 day notice for house sitting, walks and drop-ins. There are days in which I can make myself available the same day ONLY for walks and drop-ins. You will know if I am available for same day walks and drop-ins if I have appeared in your search results. You are welcome to submit a request for same day service then. I do not do walks and drop-ins for others during a house sitting if a client has indicated they are uncomfortable with this or if it conflicts with another pets walking/feeding time. I do not bring guests of any kind to client’s homes. It is fine if clients have service workers such as house cleaners entering the home, as long as I am made aware of the time of their arrival. I generally do not wear shoes in people’s houses and I always clean up after myself if staying for several hours or more. I may bring house slippers to wear inside based on the circumstances. Please indicate if you are able to provide both a towel and a washcloth. It is ok if you can only provide one of these or neither. I will bring my own if needed. I am slightly anemic so I ask that you keep your place at a reasonable temperature. You may also provide a few blankets.
“Great walkers :)) so friendly and accommodating. I appreciate when a walker does their best to do long distance walks in 30 minutes. In a dream world, I’d love to pay for an hour but just can’t afford it right now, so having a walker that is putting in the effort, means so much. Nothing better than a tired dog!”

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life, and often petsit for friends and family! As the mom of a reactive cattle dog, I have experience with training and managing reactivity on walks and at home. I am local and have a car, so I'm able to travel a little farther to take excellent care of your pets! I work remotely, so as long as your home has a reliable internet connection I can spend most or all of the day with your pet! My schedule is very flexible so I can easily take pets out for frequent potty breaks if needed, and/or take frequent play breaks to keep your pet happy and entertained. As a dog and cat owner in Boston, I am always very careful and mindful of opening/closing doors and windows to prevent fur babies from getting out when they're not supposed to. As a reactive dog mom, I'm also used to keeping a close eye out for potential triggers on walks.
“Jose is awesome, our dog can give walkers a hard time (not wanting to leave the house) and with him, this wasn’t an issue. Great communicator, great with our dog and all around great guy. Thanks for your help!!”

Alissa is an amazing dog walker. We deeply appreciate how reliable and consistent she is, and how well she manages our dog with reactivity. She always comes on time and has been mindful of the summer heat when going on walks. Alissa has been an absolute asset to our family and we are wicked lucky to have her!!

Mirabel was so awesome! She helped me out last minute by walking Theo and even though he gave her lots of trouble by hiding from her at first, she was so patient with him and still took him on a long walk. She provided a thorough note and lots of photos which I greatly appreciated. 10/10 would recommend!
