“We loved working with Kevin and Inez to entrust the care of our little puppy! Very accommodating and made the experience all the more better for us first time rover users. Communicated very well and promptly. Would recommend to others and use their services in the future!”
“It’s always tough to leave our dog at a new place with a new person, but Alyssa made it easy and comforting :). Appreciated the check-ins and pictures too! Thank you for looking after Juno and she looks forward to seeing you again!”
“Hope is a wonderful person and sitter! She was very kind to our little four-legged friend, Bean. She was also very quick to respond to any question we had during the sitting. It was a great experience and I'm sure Bean feels the same way. You can really tell she cares about each and every animal in her care. We couldn't be more pleased with Hope. Thank you Hope!!!”
“Tom has watched him for a day and boarded my Doodle twice now and always takes amazing care of him. He comes back happy and tired each time and I get updates while we are away to show he is adjusting fine. He gets excited for each return.”
“Cindy was the best rover Apollo has visited. She was super easy to contact, helpful with updates and even helped me w some training tips. Apollo didn’t want to go home after - will definitely contact again”
“Joe was excellent. He was super attentive and caring, sent daily photos and videos and didn’t hesitate to take on a puppy who has extra needs. We are looking forward to having him watch both our dogs in a few days. Highly recommend!!!”
“Sadie was absolutely wonderful. I was very nervous leaving my pup August and she was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and August came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend Sadie to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter for their fur baby.”
“Sam and Thomas were wonderful with our dog! We were able to meet ahead of time to ensure that our doggos got along and it was a great fit! When we dropped off our Waylon boy, he was so happy to be able to play with two friends (Sam & Thomas' dogs)! They were all so welcoming, friendly and kind. We were away from Friday - Sunday and they sent me several pictures of Waylon enjoying life at their place. I am so happy we meet them and we plan on booking them again for our next trip. If you want a family that genuinely cares for animals and will take excellent care of your dog, contact Sam & Thomas! They are amazing!!”
“Sarah, Ben and Bean are the BEST. Attie had the most incredible time playing with Bean and I loved the updates and pictures. Sarah knew how nervous I felt leaving him for nearly 3 weeks and was so considerate and kind. Attie came home tired and he seems like he misses Bean and Sarah already. Love that we have found such an incredible family to leave Attie with when we are away ❤️”
“Min Joo is a very thoughtful and accommodating dog sitter. We had a wonderful experience and felt reassured that our dog was well taken care of with the frequent communication and photo/video updates.”
“Richard and Hope took great care of Betty; lots of outdoor time and playing with children. They obviously LOVE dogs and make them part of their family! If I’m back in their ar3a, Betty is definitely staying with them again!”
“My pups had so much fun with Kaitlin and her son! The communication was prompt from the onset of booking our appointment and it was easy to coordinate drop off and get updates throughout their stay. Kaitlin made sure the pups got lots of time outside and they looked cozy cuddled up in her home. I would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Romeo seemed to have a good stay overnight with Elijah, Carson and their dogs and cats. I received photos and updates and Romeo seemed very tuckered out when he got home so I think he probably had lots of stimulation and fun. Thank you! We will be back!”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Looking to get my own, but in the meantime, would be excited to watch yours. I have plenty of toys and treats and I’m happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable to keep your furry friend happy! I currently work at Dartmouth Hitchcock full-time which is why I typically can only watch during the weekend. My flexibility means I can also sometimes work remote. Depending on your preference, I’m sure we can work out something great. I am happy to do anything that makes you feel comfortable. I love to go for a walk, so I’m happy to take them down to the small park that we have. Or if they’re not much of a walker, I’m happy to sit and relax as long as they know how to pick a TV show.
“Samantha was a fantastic caretaker of my 3 year old Australian shepherd! She regularly sent me photos and status updates throughout the stay. I would highly recommend her and plan to bring my dog back!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of a variety of animals. I worked in veterinary medicine for 8 years and spent two years in high school working for a dog and cat boarding facility. Currently a medical student, I have a lot of flexibility. I’m able to complete morning, midday, and/or evening walks. I am often available on weekends. I have a fenced in porch and can take dogs out on leash. I live close by to the rail trail and in a very walkable neighborhood. I can administer topical, oral, and subcutaneous medications.
