“Victoria is amazing all around. Not only does our pup love staying with her but she is attentive and flexible. Maddie has stayed with her multiple times and we highly recommend booking with Victoria!”


“Ella had an amazing stay with Oana and Oliver. They were so communicative and helpful putting us at ease for Ella’s first night away from us. We will definitely be bringing her back next time we need a sitter. Also the photos they take are amazing!”


“We are so grateful to March and his family for taking great care of Billie while we were away. March was extremely communicative and it was very clear from his messages and photos that Billie was very well cared for and happy. We’ve already booked him for our next trip!”


“Our pups had a great stay with Mike and his family! Communication was excellent, we received regular updates & photos, and Mike was sure to reach out if anything came up. We would not hesitate to have our girls stay with wonderful Mike again and are grateful for his care!”


“Kathe took the best care of my puppy Hercules! I received a picture or video daily that made being away from him so much easier. Hercules also loved hanging out with Pedro (his newest best friend). I would recommend Kathe to anyone! I felt so safe leaving my pup with her!:)”


“Once again, Honey had a great time with Betsy and her family. We so appreciate that we can relax when leaving Honey with Betsy. We know she'll have a safe and fun time!”



“Chris & Lissette were fantastic with my Cavapoo Maple! They were extremely thorough and attentive to his needs. They captured every cute moment and provided frequent updates. Such a warm and inviting family. Maple can’t wait for his next stay!”


“"I cannot recommend Patrick enough as a dog sitter. From the moment we confirmed our reservation with him, I knew we were in good hands. As a first-time user of Rover, I had my fair share of concerns, but Patrick quickly alleviated them with his professionalism and attentiveness. While my son was primarily looking after our dog during our vacation, he had to leave for a work trip before our return. Patrick's location was a blessing in disguise, as it was incredibly convenient for my son to drop off our beloved nine-year-old Portuguese water dog, Kismet, on his way to the airport. Upon our arrival back home, we were able to pick up Kismet directly on our route home with the help of an Uber, thanks to Patrick's thoughtful planning. Throughout the entire process, Patrick was accommodating, reassuring, and truly went above and beyond to ensure Kismet's well-being and our peace of mind. It was evident that Kismet was well cared for and content in Patrick's care. Without a doubt, I will not hesitate to entrust Patrick with Kismet's care again in the future. His dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals make him a standout dog sitter, and I am grateful to have found such a trustworthy and caring individual to look after our furry family member. Thank you, Patric, for your exceptional service and for providing us with peace of mind during our time away."”


“Yang has a wonderful caring family that loves animals. My dog can be scared and nervous about new people and other dogs but he loved Yang and her family. Because of my dog’s behavior, she agreed to do a trial stay. I appreciate how Yang kept me updated on how my dog is doing.”


“Chanel was very responsive and sent lots of photos throughout the weekend. Making sure I knew the dogs were happy! The dogs came back so happy from our trip and that was so great to see!”



“Séamus took wonderful care of Maybelle during our extended time away! He was very friendly and responsive and sent daily updates, photos and videos. I could tell that Maybelle was being treated very well - like part of the family. It set my mind at ease. She also got along well with Séamus' dog. We would definitely love to book with Séamus again in the future!”



“This is the second time Elizabeth and Neil have kept our Cavachon Maggie. I can’t express how wonderful it is to know that Maggie is in a loving home and with her buddies Percy and Moonbeam. I wouldn’t leave her anywhere else!”


“10/10 perfect! The care that Charlie received was awesome. He looked so happy in all the photos! Honestly I feel like he is sad I took him away from his new doggie and human friends! Definitely recommend!”


“I found a true saint on Rover in Cheuck. He went so far above and beyond any reasonable expectation I could have had, I would give him 10 stars if I could. We left our elderly, disabled dog with Cheuck for 18 nights. She requires a tremendous amount of care and attention, and Cheuck treated her as his own. He learned how to carry her when needed, and to walk her with her support harness. When she had accidents, he cleaned and bathed her with care, washed her towels and beds, and somehow took it all in stride. He played with her within her capabilities, and gave her lots of snuggles. He kept us in the loop with frequent messages, pictures, and videos. It's always hard being away from your pup, but I had confidence she was in the best possible care. I would recommend Cheuck's dog sitting services to anyone.”


“Lori was great! This was my first time leaving my pup and she made it a great experience! Lori was great with the dogs, has a fenced in yard and sent me videos of my pup playing and having a blast! I’ll be sure to use Lori again!”


“We had the most amazing experience with Jackie. This was our first time using Rover and we felt so confident that our pup was in the best of hands. Jackie has a lot of experience fostering dogs of all kinds so had no problem dealing with our high energy pup! We got daily photo updates and when we went to pick Sox up he wasn't quite ready to leave her grassy backyard....once home he slept all day from all the fun he had. Highly recommend to anyone in the Boston area looking for a boarder.”


“Rob was great with Boeing! Bo got great walks and puppy play time, and had fun playing with Rob’s kids. Rob was very attentive, sent pictures every day, and was very understanding when our return flight and Boeing’s pickup was delayed. Thanks so much Rob!”


About: I’m a dog person! I love meeting new dogs and spending time with them. I’ve taken care of dogs off and on for 20 years (not including my own). I currently have a rat terrier mix - Roxie - who LOVES dog friends and is very playful. I’m a big walker and have experience with dogs on trails as well as in neighborhoods. I’d take care of your dog like my own. Most of my experience is for extended stay house-sitting for families with multiple dogs. I’m not able to have cats in my apartment, but love meeting cats in their own space and would be sure they were well loved and taken care of in your absence. I work from home full-time and have a very flexible schedule which allows me to be available most times of the day. I can work around complicated calendars! I have a fenced yard and a VERY friendly rat-terrier mix named Roxie. For house sitting, Roxie can come with me or stay behind, but she’s great with dogs off all sizes and I’m very careful when bringing her into another dog’s space.

“Luke was amazing with Autumn and we will definitely be using him again. He sent lots of pictures and she looked happy in all of them! She was a Covid dog so she isn't used to being alone so finding a sitter who was involved was very important for us. We were lucky to find him.”



“Very friendly, provided plenty of photos for us to see our dog during her stay. She was very responsive and attentive to the dog. When she got home she seemed happy! Recommended.”

“I can't recommend Annie highly enough! She had taken care of my dog and always goes above and beyond. From regular walks to playtime and feeding, everything is handled with care, patience, and professionalism. It's clear she genuinely love animals — my dog warmed up to her immediately, which says a lot. Annie is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly has a special connection with animals. My dog lights up every time she arrives, which says it all. Annie always keeps me updated and gives my dog the attention and affection she needs. I trust her completely and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter or walker.”
