“Dwight was great! He looked after my two pups while I was away on a family vacation. I could tell that he took the time to get to know both of them and treated them like extended family. He sent picture updates and was flexible with the drop off time. Next time I have to go out of town, I’m def booking with Dwight!”
“Shani responded quickly to take a last minute long term booking. She was very communicative & hands on with Malcolm. Felt very comfortable leaving my baby while out of the country.”
About: Hi! I’m Quirtina, a lifelong dog lover and dog mom to Biggie, my sweet 5-year-old Cockapoo. I grew up with two dogs, and Biggie is my second personal dog, so I know how much trust it takes to leave your pup in someone else’s care. I also regularly dog sit for friends, and I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m active and love long walks around Hyde Park, so I’m happy to help with exercise, playtime, cuddles, and keeping your dog’s routine consistent. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and administering medications. I’ll pay close attention to your instructions and your dog’s personality, and I’m always glad to send updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m a full time MBA student, so I have plenty of time to care for your pup! I am home most of the time during the day and evening. I live in a secured gated home, with a gated area for quick bathroom breaks outside of regular walks. Your pup will be in safe hands!
“Tonisa did a wonderful job taking care of my doggies. This was my first time using this site and was not disappointed. She went above my expectations and I’m a really anxious person when it comes to leaving my dogs in someone else’s care. Will definitely love for her to care for my dogs in the future. This is better than boarding facilities!”
“Ksenia took great care of Lola while we were on vacation! This was our second time working with her and she provided updates and gave Lola the care and attention she needed. Thanks so much, Ksenia!”
“So thankful for Kyla & Barbara (her mom) for taking care of Drogo! Drogo’s very happy. They have updates with photos & videos everyday. They are very sweet & accommodating. We even did a video call because our daughter missed Drogo so much! We’ll definitely book them again when we visit the area. ❤️?”
“E.K. was a miracle send. I was in a pinch where my original sitter cancelled last minute (days before I had to leave on a two week trip); all the while I was going through some family issues, and finding a back up for boarding my baby was so stressful. E.K. stepped in to help when needed, and all was as smooth as I could’ve hoped for. She even helped transport him. Definitely took a weight off of my shoulders and very glad I found her. Would definitely use her again.”
“Dominique was AB-SO-LUTE-LY Fabulous!!! She treated my babies like her very own (even calling them by their "cutesy" baby names when she scratched them under their cheeks and behind the ears). She created a safe, loving and clean space for them... allowing them to thrive. Truth be told, I'm kind of jealous that they "took to her" so quickly and didn't miss me more (our first time separated in 11 years). Knowing Dominique was taking such great care of them, made the stressful time I was going through easier to manage. My babies came back, calm,well feldand clean!!! 👍 I will definitely seek out Ms. Dominique again for any and all future pet needs.”
“OMG she was wonderful. Her space was nice and clean she checked in everyday with me I was running late she assured me it was ok my dog went on play dates and much more. I would definitely be using her every time.”
“Kamiah and Casius took great care of our dog, Ziggy, over the holidays. They were easy to communicate with and sent a daily video to let us know Ziggy was doing ok. Drop-off was quick and easy, and Kamiah kindly brought Ziggy back to us at the end of the week. Would definitely recommend!”
“Ra'eesa took great care of my dog. She provided photos, videos and updates of him enjoying walks and the dog park. I am so glad we found her on rover and plan to become a repeat client.”
“Katrina did an excellent job caring for my dog Boo! This was my first time using this site as well as letting anyone outside of friends and family keep him and Katrina made this experience as calm and easy going as possible. She is extremely detailed with care and patient with animals which really stuck out for me and made me comfortable. I also really loved the updates and photo's she provided throughout the day while Boo was in her care. He looked so happy and well kept. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone and will be using her again :)”
“Ashley is amazing and was able to take my girls on short notice! They love spending time with Ashley and her daughter Marina and I know they are super well cared for! 🐾💜”
“Tamara was incredibly flexible, professional and communicative. I could tell from the updates that Layla was very well cared for and had a great time!”
“This is the second time Harper has stayed with Bola - she is amazing with him. Whenever I drop him off, he just forgets about me. She's super attentive, ask questions when she's unsure, and checks in enough to give me comfort. Would return asap!”
“Ania is amazing! She’s checked in with pix and videos daily. My pup came home so happy and content. I’ll definitely be checking her schedule the next time I need a sitter. 10/10 ☺️”
“Megan was so sweet!. This was the first time we needed to board our baby for a few days. Megan eased our worries. She was in contact with us throughout the day. She sent lots of pics of our baby. Definitely will be a return customer!”
South Shore dog parents share their Rover experiences
As a first-time Rover user, I'll admit I was a little hesitant to leave Ace with someone new — but Jane completely put those worries to rest. She was incredible with him from the start, keeping me updated with tons of photos and plenty of communication throughout. Ace got long walks and trips to the dog park, so I knew he was getting the interaction and exercise he needed. I couldn't have asked for a better first experience, and I'll absolutely be booking with Jane again!
Spencer took excellent care of my senior dog! He was accommodating and understanding of Mikey’s various quirks and health concerns, administered medications as instructed and sent frequent updates and cute pictures throughout the weekend. It was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!!
This was my first time using Rover and Kamiah was great. She made me feel so comfortable to leave my dog with her. She sent pictures and videos multiple times per day and it was clear my dog had a great stay. I highly recommend and will be using them again in the future!
Dominique was super professional with Zeus. It was our first time booking with her and she asked all the right questions concerning our baby ahead of time and during the booking. This made me feel more comfortable as a dog mom dropping off our baby for the first time. I am planning on using Dominique's services again in the near future. Dominique made sure that I got daily updates via pics/videos on how Zeus was doing. Overall, a very positive experience and I would recommend booking for anyone thinking of booking.
We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our Nina! Agustina took care of her for 10 days, and from the very first moment, it was clear that Nina was in the most loving and capable hands. Agustina sent us regular updates with photos and videos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. When we picked Nina up, she was happy, well-fed, and clearly had the time of her life. You can tell Agustina genuinely loves animals. We will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Agustina!
Marley was absolutely amazing! She communicated very well throughout the entire stay and made sure Dakota ate his food, which I truly appreciated. She gave him plenty of walks and took really great care of him overall. I felt completely at ease knowing Dakota was in such good hands. I will definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.
Elizabeth is great! Bleu clearly had a wonderful time. She can struggle with anxiety and want feeling great but Elizabeth managed all of that and helped make bleu comfortable. I especially appreciated Elizabeth’s love and knowledge of pits which helped me to know she was with someone who understood her and would take great care of her.
Stephanie was such a pleasure to work with. She so graciously accepted my last minute request to watch him for 8 days. She was extremely communicative and reassuring that she would give the best care for my senior boy. She went above and beyond for Walle and me. Sent me a ton of pictures and gave him the one on one care that I appreciate. I know my dog fell in love with her. Will definitely be rebooking. ❤️
