Iain was a wonderful pet sitter for our two dogs and cat. They were very friendly and easy to communicate with when setting up a meet & greet. They made sure our pets and our apartment were well taken care of while we were away — they were respectful of our care instructions and cleaned up before they left. I would 100% recommend Iain as a pet sitter and will definitely be a returning client!

Gabby was reliable and communicative. She had the tough task of watching our anxious pup, and she did a great job. We'd definitely hire her again, and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!

Kyra was incredible! She was reliable and provided consistent updates/pictures throughout the night. This was our first time using Rover, and Kyra provided a seamless experience. We are looking forward to booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter that will care and even brush your fur baby!!

Danielle did an AMAZING job with my senior dog and my reactive dog. My senior pup has heart disease, kidney disease, and IBD. She has to be administered multiple medications with a pet piller twice a day, needs to be carried onto/off furniture, and is reactive to dogs while out for walks. My other pup is reactive toward people and will nip if you try to do something he doesn't want you to do; he won't let anyone aside from me put on his leash. It often happens that sitters are unable to walk him when I'm out of town, but Danielle brought a slip lead and was able to walk him!!! I was so thankful and relieved that she was knowledgeable about reactive dogs and was proactive in bringing a leash that could work for him. Leaving my dogs is often extremely stressful because something always seems to not go quite right, but everything went so smoothly with Danielle that I was actually able to enjoy my time away. I got photos and updates multiple times a day which I really appreciated. She left my apartment extremely clean and even offered to throw my sheets in the wash on her last day with my pups. I am SO thankful I found her! Def recommend and will 10000% be hiring her again.

Paul has been super professional every step of the way. He was prompt in setting up a meet and greet, on time, and communicated well. He also caught my mistake when I initially booked for the wrong days. We received some updates while we were gone, which was appreciated, but most importantly, our girl was clearly well taken care of. She's old and thrives on routine, and she looked like she barely noticed we were gone when we returned. It's really nice to know that she was in great hands. Bonus: I think our apartment was actually cleaner when we returned. 5+ stars.

May was terrific! She house-sat for my cat and energetic 5-year old Husky. She took my Husky on several walks and sent me many pictures, videos and updates to let me know that everyone was doing well. I will definitely be requesting May again if I need someone to watch and care for my dog! She's great!

Maria is the ultimate dog lover! She watched my dog Marty before, and he fell madly in love with her. He's very dog reactive and she took that into consideration while taking him for nice long walks. Maria is trustworthy, responsible, and would do anything to keep your dog entertained, safe, and loved. I would HIGHLY recommend Maria for any type of dogsitting or dog walking!

Allison took great care of my dog and kept me in the loop on how things were going so that I was completely at ease and able to enjoy my time away. She also sent great pictures of their adventures in South Boston! I came home to a happy dog, clean apartment - and she even set my clocks back for Daylight Savings! I would definitely hire Allison for future needs.

Dominique and Antonio were absolutely AMAZING! We were looking for a last minute dog sitter for a week long international vacation. They were able to take our pup at a short notice and house sat for us. They were very detailed in asking questions and following instructions. They sent photos to us everyday making us feel assured and ease during our whole trip that our pup was in good hands. They left our house cleaner than when they came and Dominique even left us a beautiful portrait of our pup. We’ll be adding this pet nanny team to our roster of pet sitters for sure!
