“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!”

“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.”

“Kristina was wonderful with our bernadoodle puppy! She gave us a few updates throughout the night, followed all instructions we left regarding her bathroom routine etc and also sent amazing pictures! Will definitely book her again!”

“Victoria stayed at my house for 5 days and cared for my elderly cat, who needs daily medication. She sent frequent updates and photos and took great care of my dear Nanette. She left the house clean and neat. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and recommend her highly.”


“Bethany stepped in to pet sit for us last minute, and we are so thankful for that. She took excellent care of our pup and our home we highly highly recommend and she will be our first request for all future needs!”

About: I have grown up with a forever love of taking care of my families, friends and neighbors dogs. I have always enjoyed always being able to interact with them and spend my time around them. I am currently a graduate student working a part-time internship during the week but around that schedule I have plenty of time to watch your fur babies at your convenience. I love being able to get out and about to care for pups whether this be going on walks, playing or just hanging out! I am currently living in an apartment in Boston even though it is super tight in here I am more than willing to take your pups for a nice long walk or go to play in the park. Luckily I live right down the road from a dog park!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats and dogs. I’m a cat mom since 2017, volunteer at a local cat shelter, and enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for your pet’s needs throughout the day. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and schedules, and I’m also available for evening, nighttime, and weekend care. I’ll work with you to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they need! I live in a spacious apartment with plenty of room for pets to feel comfortable. I also have a separate room available for shy or nervous cats who may need a quiet space to settle in. When visiting your home, I’m always careful when opening doors and entering or leaving to help prevent curious cats or dogs from accidentally getting out.
About: I took care of three cats growing up, two that required injections and one that required medication with varying diets and needs. I also have a loving (but very lazy) beagle to add to my experience, as well as a kitten. In college, I dogsat for a professor with a 12-year-old poodle that required medication and frequent check-ins. I've owned and taken care of a variety of pets, all ages and genders, and am confident that my experience will help me take care of yours! I am currently unemployed and can pop over to take your dog for a quick walk, or even just check in throughout the day. I can also housesit as needed, given my flexibility. Given my building restrictions, I will not house your pets. However, I can visit your home as needed to make sure your pets are loved and cared for just as much as my own.
“Levi was AMAZING! We were so lucky she had availability when we booked last minute. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and their behaviors while being very patient and understanding with our nervous rescue. She sent many pictures to keep us at ease while we were away and left the house cleaner than when we left! Chanel typically doesn’t clique with new people but she was so happy with Levi, we are so appreciative!”

“Danielle is amazing! She’s super reliable, communicative, and always keeps us updated with plenty of photos. Theo is always so happy with her, and we come home to a very happy pup every time! It gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s in great hands. We’ve had such a great experience with Danielle and will definitely continue using her. Highly recommend!”

“Amy was the best! She kept me updated throughout my trip. Sent lots of photos and videos. Gave my cat his medication on time and kept me well informed. I came back to a clean home and happy cats. Will rebook definitely”


About: My energetic personality and caring spirit for all dogs sets me apart. I love caring for any dog and being that safe person for them. I work full time in Hybrid in Boston. I have flexibility during my week to dogsit overnight or during the day time on remote days. In my clients home I love to be an added comfort for a dog as they adjust to their owners being out of the house.
“Lauren was fantastic. Communication was on point and she left my home in amazing shape after staying with my pup for a week!! My neighbors even raved about her. Pup was in a good mood and seemed well cared for, spoiled even. Highly recommend.”

“I can’t recommend Ashley enough! She is so good with our fur-baby and always very communicative while we’re away. Leaving your pet behind is difficult, but we feel very confident doing so with Ashley.”


“Amy was great cat sitting for our precious kitty! She sent lots of cute updates, which we appreciated so much and did a wonderful job medicating Savannah for the first time. We came home to a happy cat and a clean home. We are looking forward to booking with Amy again for all our cat sitting needs!”
“Arshneel was amazing! This was our first time using Rover after moving to a new city. Arshneel was so communicative before and during her stay with our girl Ruby. I explained my nervousness about our pup feeling anxious when we left since she’s in a new space, so Arshneel made sure to come over before we left to help ease the transition. Throughout her stay she kept us updated and provided great care to Ruby. Our apartment was super tidy when we got back! We will 100% work with Arshneel again and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Kelly took excellent care of our dog Cleo, and of our home! She sent frequent photo updates of Cleo and left our home organized/tidy upon our return. Cleo was clearly very happy all weekend and we knew she was in great hands. We would highly recommend booking with Kelly for house sitting/petsitting- thank you Kelly!”

“Natalia was fantastic! She kept me posted on how my 7yo labradoodle was doing, sent fun pictures, and left my place in excellent shape. Like so many dog parents, I’m a little neurotic about who I leave my pup with and I would absolutely recommend Natalia to others. We hope to use her again in the future!”

“Sophia was a wonderful sitter who housesat with our senior Greyhound for four nights. Sophia is very communicative, quick to respond, and we loved receiving her pictures and updates of our dog while we were out of town. Sophia went above and beyond to leave our apartment spotless upon our return and to keep to our dog’s routine that makes him happy and comfortable. Thank you Sophia!”

Emily was such a dedicated and attentive sitter— I highly recommend her! She took amazing care of my dog, Palmer, and sent photos every day. She took her on long walks and provided her with enrichment activities and cuddles for all 5 days that she was with her.

George had a very recent incident swallowing a toy and was on watch for aspiration pneumonia. When he got sick and the vet recommended he come back in, Gabrielle took great care of him and kept me posted on his status. It is such a relief to know I can leave my babies in such good hands!

My wife and I came to Boston from Worcester because our son was having surgery at Boston Medical Center. The surgery required three days of recovery at the hospital. At the last minute our dog sitter in Worcester had an emergency and couldn't help us, so we had to bring the dog with us to the hotel which was dog friendly. Thank God we were able to contact Masiel at the last minute and she was able to hang out with our dog at the hotel, take the dog for walks and potty breaks, while we attended to our son at the hospital across the street. She is very cooperative, professional and flexible. Our dog, Isabella, was so happy to spend time with Masiel, so I guess our dog also made a good friend in Boston! I highly recommend Masiel.

Bethany was great! She house sat for us and our two Boston terriers, sent lots of pictures, and took great care of them and the house. All pet parents know how stressful it is to leave your furbabies behind and it was such a relief knowing they’re in good hands.

Anna did a fantastic job watching our two dogs! It was not an easy job with two dogs with different needs, one dog struggling with a skin infection and on new medication and both having just moved to the area. Anna gave us regular updates, followed all of our instruction/preferences, and made us feel at ease while we were out of town. We have already booked her for another stay and are thrilled to have found a sitter we can trust!

Willow was wonderful!!! I needed to find someone last minute due to a death in the family, and Willow came through big time! She made the time to come to my apartment before I left to meet me and my pup and even took her for a walk the same week, just to make sure my dog knew who she was and she could familiarize herself with my dog and my home. She was a clear, effective, and wonderful communicator and companion to my dog when I was out of town, and I swear she left my apartment cleaner than when she arrived! I can’t wait to have Willow back to help with my dog, and I would highly recommend her to help out with any other pets!

Chandler did a great job taking care of our house and our 12y/o Boxer, Luna. She was on top of Luna's food, meds, and walks, sent daily pictures of her so we'd know everything was okay, and was respectful of our home while staying there. We would highly recommend her to friends and others as a house or dog sitter. Plus, her band rocks!

Valeria took great care of my Dobby while also house sitting! She sent me regular updates on his eating and walks and even cuddled with him at night 🥹 She also left everything tidy for our return. Overall super great experience and I will happily have her take care of Dobby again. Thanks Vale!

Danielle did a fantastic job taking care of my dogs while I was away for a couple days. She had great communication, keeping me updated with how they were doing/ what was going on and included great pictures of the dogs! Danielle is very trustworthy and I’m extremely grateful that everything went smooth. I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!
