Vi was by far the best person I’ve ever experienced through Rover and was very attentive to my sweet indoor kitty. She sent 10-15 pictures every day on her visit and provided very thorough updates which was so helpful as my kitty can get separation anxiety while I’m away and my kitty was so happy and playful in the pictures! I would highly recommend using Vi, she is the best and has the sweetest personality!

About: I've had dogs my whole life; from a Chihuahua to a German Shepard! Last summer I lost my 17 year old baby and I'm not ready to get another dog yet but I have the time and knowledge to watch yours! I volunteer at an animal shelter every week and sometimes I foster. I love going on long walks multiple times a day so it would be a bonus to bring your pup along! I have experience with senior dogs and medicine. I work 4 days a week and I make my own schedule so I can easily do a midday walk even if I'm working that day. If I'm not out walking or working I'm usually just at home reading and would love to have a furry friend next to me. I work Wednesday through Saturday as a hairdresser, I make my own schedule so I can easily schedule mid day walks. Most mornings I walk for 1-2 hours already so I'd love to bring a pup along. After work, I just stay in and read usually so I'd be a great companion. I'm a great house sitter, I'm very chill and clean and respectful. I can take your dogs on walks and also play with them in the houses and truly love them like they are my own.

About: For 8.5 years, I cared for my Maltipoo (Piku, 16.5 yo) and teacup Pomeranian (Cola 14.5 yo) and have extensive, personal experience caring for senior dogs that require special attention including multiple medications (eye care, syringes, tablets), special diets, seizure management and more. As small as my dogs were, I made sure to take them on walks and then “snifaris” in the stroller so they could enjoy the fullest lives possible, and would love to help your best friend do the same! I’ve had the pleasure of caring for friends’ precious cats including play, feeding, and litter clean up and make sure to give them tailored care. I’m passionate about listening to and understanding animals and hope I can help bring peace of mind to you and your family! I’m currently available every day of the week at all times so am able to accommodate a variety of needs! If you need more frequent drop-ins or walks, please feel free to let me know. I’d love to accommodate if I can. I will meticulously read any and all instructions you provide, as I understand that you know your pet best! I would love to meet your pet first to make sure they comfortable around me and am willing to meet multiple times if necessary.

About: i have great experience working with dogs because of my work volunteering at the humane society for several years, and will develop a great connection with pets as if they are my own! I am a freshman playing so my schedule may be unpredictable at times but most weekends are open and afternoons work better than mornings for me. I work to develop a great connection with the pet, while giving them my full attention and making sure they are staying safe healthy, and happy.

About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for over a year, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and ages. I’m patient, reliable, and passionate about providing safe, loving care tailored to each dog’s needs — from playful pups to gentle seniors. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine since I already work at a doggy daycare. When I’m not there, I’m spending time with my own dogs—taking them on walks, to the park, and keeping them active. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care for other pets too. Since I live with my family, I don’t bring pets into my home, but I’m happy to care for them in their own space. I always make sure to get a full tour and all the important details before sitting, so I can keep their routine consistent. I also love sending lots of pictures and videos to keep owners updated and comfortable.

About: Hi, I’m Thomas! From playful pups to wise old seniors, I’ve had the joy of working with them all-and I treat each one like they’re part of my family. Whether your pup needs long walks, gentle care, or time on the couch watching TV, I’m here to help. I understand that every pet has their own quirks, routines, and needs and I genuinely love getting to know what makes each one special. I currently work from home (aside from the occasional sales call or business trip) so I have plenty of time for walks on the Back Bay, bathroom breaks, and pets on the couch! I love having dogs around, and routinely watch my brother and sister-in-law’s Bernedoodle, Olive. I have no problem having your pup on my couch, and I’m also happy to hang at your home too!

About: I’ve loved & cared for animals since I was a kid. I have cared for dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, horses, bearded dragons - I have experience with administering meds, special feedings/dietary needs, reactive animals (I have a reactive dog myself), & providing all the cuddles & love the animals tolerate. I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, & getting to love on any/all fur babies. I work part time & am also caring for my mom at the moment - I am available for dog walking, drop-in’s for now, with the goal of full-time pet-sitting in the future. I unfortunately cannot offer boarding at this time. As a super protective fur-mom, I am always acutely aware of any potential escape moments - so I can assure all fur parents that I know the anxiety that comes with not being able to protect your babie(s) at all time. I am always making sure that all doors, gates, etc are closed & locked, that there are no potential hazardous & toxic food within reach, that there is always fresh water & food, plenty of play time with the fur baby’s favorite toy(s), & lots of love and cuddles. The biggest thing I want for my own doggo is for him to feel so incredibly loved at all times, & I will always treat every animal with the same level of love & respect that I give my own little fluff.

About: Life long animal lover with three rescue pups of my own! I have hands on experience with the medical needs of pups, including special needs, as well as handling (and loving) dogs with behavioral issues. I ALWAYS go above and beyond to provide much love and patience for the ones who may need a little extra care & understanding! I also have a snake and a tortoise, so I’m confidant and comfortable with reptile care as well. Since my house is at max capacity when it comes to fitting another animal, I’d love the opportunity to extend my nurturing care to your pets, whether that means taking them on a walk, playing with them, or pet sitting in your home. I know first hand the amount of trust it takes to leave your fur babes in someone else’s care, and I would be honored to be that person for you! With me, your pets will always come first. Not only will they be safe, but also loved and engaged to the fullest! I can’t wait to meet you! I work two park time jobs while attending school full time online. I’m home a majority of the day Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays! I care for pets in the home of the client providing drop ins, overnights, and walks! My schedule can be adjusted to meet all of your fur babies needs!

Thank you Suzy - we hope to use your services again soon!

Krystal took AMAZING care of our kitties. We appreciated the detailed updates and how she never gave up on getting one of our more shy cats to cozy up to her while we were away. When we came home we could tell they were just as happy and cared for as when we left them.

About: Hi there! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I had a golden retriever as a kid, and for the past 3 years I’ve been caring for my own large dog — so I’m very comfortable with big breeds, high energy pups, and all the love (and slobber!) that comes with them. Whether your pup needs long walks, playtime, or just some extra snuggles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Because I work from home, I can be very flexible — available for walks, feedings, or drop-ins throughout the day. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, or extra snuggles, I’ll be there. escription: When pets stay with me, they’re treated just like family. I have a spacious home with a large fenced-in yard, perfect for playtime, exercise, and safe potty breaks. I also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or you’d prefer them to have their own cozy space. Since I work from home, I’m around all day to give them plenty of love, attention, and care — whether it’s walks, feeding, play, or cuddle time.

About: I have always had animals or dogs in my life since I was little. I have a senior chihuahua that I have been able to grow up with, he was a rescue and we have been best buds since!

I could not give higher praise to Krista and Kelsey. They are thoughtful, thorough, kind, caring, gentle, patient, reliable, communicative, and trustworthy -- everything you could want in a pet sitter and more. Each visit was so much more than just a check in; they truly go above and beyond. I have two very different cats: one is a calm adult and the other is an energetic kitten. Krista and Kelsey quickly picked up on their quirks, personalities, the way they interact with each other, and even their different play styles/preferences. They understood what each of my cats needed to feel happy and loved, and they provided exactly that. Their daily updates and adorable photos were such a joy to receive -- I genuinely looked forward to them every day. I wholeheartedly recommend Krista and Kelsey. I feel so lucky to have found them and will absolutely book with them again!

Krista and Kelsey looked after our 16 yr old cat (Gizmo) whilst we were away for 5 days - making home visits twice a day. Communication was first class, as were the daily photos showing us how happy and content Gizmo was. This is our first time using Rover and we would have no hesitation in asking for Krista and Kelsey to look after Gizmo again.

Isabel was a fantastic pet sitter. She sent informative daily updates along with adorable pics of our three cats. They seemed calm and happy when we returned home. Their food and litter areas were clean and organized. We so enjoyed meeting Isabel at our meet and greet and had no doubt that our beloved boys would be in capable hands while we were away.

This was our first time leaving our cats for an extended trip, and Mable made us feel completely at ease from day one. Her detailed visit reports and photo updates were incredible - we could tell how much time and care she put into every visit. She played with their favorite toys, brushed them, and made sure they were happy and comfortable. Finding someone you trust with your pets is everything, and Mable is absolutely that person for us. We are beyond grateful!

Anna did an amazing job caring for our Fluffy Bear. Fluffy is very shy and usually stays hidden but Anna was patient and made the effort to spend time with her anyway. On one visit, Fluffy even came out far enough to lick Anna’s hand which says everything. My wife and I were so happy with the care Anna provided and felt completely at ease while we were away. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her.
