“Mario did a fantastic job! Our pup was happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. We greatly appreciated Mario’s responsiveness and wonderful photos. In the future, we would definitely consider going to him again. Thank you!”
“We are so thankful to Gabriel! He cared for our pup, Hugo, last minute over a holiday weekend. He was patient and kind, since Hugo takes a day to feel comfortable with new people. He also sent updates and photos. We will definitely be hiring him again!”
About: Dogs are special beings. Anyone who has been blessed to have a connection with them knows it all too well. Because of dogs we are more humble, empathetic, caring people. " 🐾🕊️💞❤️ I currently work from home and am available to board for your fur baby in a quiet and safe environment. I’ll play fetch with your pup and go for walks. My yard is large and fully fenced in. Your dog’s safety is my number one priority. Dogs are never allowed outside without supervision. Indoors, dogs are crated during sleep periods for their safety.
“Tippy had another wonderful stay with Elliot and Jo! They always take fabulous care of him and ensure he gets all the adventures, food, and cuddles he could ever want! Love their daily updates and photos too. ☺️”
“Miranda was so wonderful with Charlie! She sent me so many cute photos and videos while I was away and I could tell he was having the time of his life! Would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
About: As a dog mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every dog like family with kindness, patience, and close attention to their safety and happiness. Hi, I’m Analee! I’m a huge animal lover and a pet parent myself to my dog, Nemo, and my cat, Stitch. 🐾 I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, so I’ll always treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and a friendly one year old Cavapoo named Nemo who loves other dogs. If your dog enjoys canine companionship, supervised playtime is always an option. I also have a friendly cat who is comfortable around dogs, but interactions will only happen if everyone is comfortable and it is appropriate. I closely supervise all pets, follow your care instructions, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and treated like part of the family while they’re with me.
About: I’m a reliable, patient caregiver experienced with puppies, seniors, and shy dogs. I focus on safe walks, positive routines, and attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs. I have a flexible weekly schedule, so I can reliably fit dog walks into my day. I’m available for morning, midday, and early afternoon walks throughout the week. I care for pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine—safely, gently, and with full attention. I follow all instructions and keep your home tidy.
“I had a great experience with Kimberly!! She took such good care of Eeyore and gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was great with communication, kept me updated, and made sure he was happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend! 😊”
“Julie is the best!! I was in a tough spot with a flight delay and she was so kind and accommodating helping to drop off my dog and checked in to make sure we got back okay to take care of Willow that that night. I’m sure Willow would have loved if the flight was delayed even more so she could spend more time with Julie because her life seemed full of adventures and love all week. Huge thanks to Julie would definitely love to have her watch willow again!”
About: I have volunteered at two different local animal shelters, been a dog-walker through WAG for 2 years, and my rescue dog was an emotional support animal at Boston Children's Hospital! I grew up with dogs and cats and love animals! I am currently a graduate student at Northeastern and looking to make extra cash while spending time with dogs! I used to have a rescue yellow lab and an Australian Shepherd mix! I currently have two cats. I love being active and am happy to take your dog on a walk, hike, or run! I used to dog-sit my former neighbor's black lab and take her on 3-4 mile runs everyday! I am familiar with local parks and walk routes! Please contact me if interested!
About: I offer more than just feeding and walking. I focus on creating a safe, happy, and stress-free environment for your dog. I have hands on experience with both puppy training (including potty training, basic commands, and socialization) and senior dog care (gentle walks, administering medication, and extra comfort for aging joints). I pride myself on learning each dog’s unique personality, routines, and preferences so they feel secure and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s high energy playtime, calm cuddle sessions, or special dietary needs, I adapt to give your pup the care they deserve just like they’re my own. I work a 9–5 on select weekdays, but my weekends are completely open for overnight stays. I also specialize in afternoon sitting—perfect if you’re heading out on a date, running errands, or just need a little “me time.” Flexible, reliable, and ready to keep your pup happy while you take a break! 🐾 I live in a safe, pet-friendly gated community with its own secure dog playground, plus the Quincy Dog Park just around the corner—perfect for plenty of playtime and socializing! 🐕✨
“Denise is kind enough to accept my request in a short window. Tony had good time with her. Denise made sure that we get updates of Tony frequently. Thanks a lot Denise!”
“Atticia is so sweet. She took great care of all four babies! Two cats, and two dogs. My Heeler misses her so much, so you can tell they had a great time! Will be rebooking again. :-)”
“Could not be happier with the professionalism and courtesy Arron showed my little puppy. He helped out a lot while I had some serious issues with another sitter (and I was out of the country). Would highly recommend him to anyone!”
“Brian and Shawnie are the best! Very experienced dog owners that are super reliable and trust worthy, by far the best dog boarding experience we’ve ever had. We have a very big mastiff (170 lbs) who is a giant baby so he’s tough to find the right environment for but we had zero concerns after meeting Brian and his wife. Vinny was extremely well taken care of and loved while we were away to the point that we could actually enjoy our vacation and not feel guilty or bad about leaving our baby behind! Brian went above and beyond to make sure Vinny was nice and cool on a hot day, took him for walks (which we’ve never even experienced before as everyone else is afraid to walk such a big dog), and played with him whenever he wanted. We received many updates, pictures, and videos and had total peace of mind. I highly recommend Brian’s care and will 100% be returning for all trips moving forward.”
“Hemily was great. She sent pictures daily and let us know how our dog was doing. She said our dog was amazing and just a love. Our dog was very happy staying with Hemily and we would recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Jason was amazing. He took such good care of our boy - good walks, play with his dog Noah outside and made sure he received a heavy dose of love and snugs.”
“The best sitters I’ve ever had on Rover! They cared for my dog as if it were their own. When I am in the area again, I know who to call. Thank you again!”

Jennifer and Matt's house has become a home away from home for our sweet boy Ollie. He even has a favorite "spot" where he likes to hang out. Jennifer and Matt send photos every day, usually multiple times a day - and when I've expressed concerns over Ollie feeling at ease they take care to send me photos of him walking or playing. I always feel very comfortable leaving Ollie with them.
Ben took such great care of Lucy while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. His communication was outstanding, sending regular updates with lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. I especially appreciated how thoughtful he was with Lucy’s high puppy energy, particularly during the extreme heat this past week. He made sure she still got exercise while keeping her safe and comfortable, adjusting to short frequent activities given the high temperatures. It was also Lucy’s first time with fireworks and he made sure she was not afraid or anxious. Lucy came home happy, tired, relaxed, and clearly well loved. I would absolutely trust Ben with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring dog sitter. Thank you so much Ben!
When our usual dog sitter had to cancel a 7-day stay at close to the last minute Cecelia cheerfully stepped in to take care of Zorro, thank goodness. She took the time to meet him beforehand and we had the chance to introduce him to her family which made dropping him off a few days later much easier. During the stay he had lots of walks, snuggles, games and treats. When I picked him up he was totally content, wandering around getting extra pets from her and her daughter while we chatted. While we were away Cecelia sent regular updates and pictures. Overall a great experience for me and Zorro! I'm sure we'll be back.
Matt kept my 35 pound lab mix for 5 days over a holiday weekend and gave her wonderful care! She got tired out playing with his adorable dogs and kept an eye his cat from afar, haha. Matt is a caring and attentive host, flexible with my misbehaving love bug. Would definitely recommend!
