About: Hello my name is Jocelyn. I am a huge dog lover and I am unable to currently own any because I live in an apartment. I grew up with dogs and cats. In my pictures ( blonde husky/labs and Weimaraner) are my family pets at parents home. I have experience walking large breeds or handling smaller breeds. Also, I can work with a younger pup and teach it commands. I have volunteered at the Humane Society dog walking.I love dogs and kitties will give my full attention on your fur baby. Making sure your dog stays busy and happy while you are away. Please consider me as your dog walker or dog sitter so your pup stays happy while your away! I love forward to meeting your fur babies!! :) I would be available M-F, mornings earliest 9am, lunch hour flexible, afternoons and evenings. Available occasionally on weekends so please ask if needed those days. Keeping full attention on the pet to make sure they are safe and being cared. Always making sure doors and gates are shut. My parents have a part husky and he likes to be an escape artist.

“Koralis and Danny are fantastic sitters for my pets and home. They are always very nice, respectful of my home, and send photos of my pets when I'm away. Recommend them highly!”


“Caleigh took amazing care of my pup Rylo He is a rescue that I’ve had for about 3 months and she was great with him, giving him space and he took to her quickly I loved getting the photos and updates each day I feel very lucky finding Caleigh!”


“Jasmin took such great care of our sweet (kinda complicated) pup and elderly cat. She is responsible and a great communicator. Highly recomend”


“Ashley was great! She watched our dog and cat for a long weekend and stayed at our house during that time. I received updates when we were away that kept me assured that all was well, and we returned to a happy dog, content cat, and clean house. We would definitely have Ashley watch our animals again!”


“Farhad was wonderful with our babies, and even treated them as his own. He sent plenty of updates a day videos. This is the start of a great friendship. I would definitely recommend him!”


“Carly stayed with my dog for the weekend and did a fabulous job! She sent frequent photos of their adventures and was excellent with communication. I highly recommend her!”


“Diana has experience with both puppies and senior dogs and she was great with my dog with separation anxiety. Good communication and lots of photos. I would definitely hire her again.”


“From first contact Rhianna was an A+. She's caring, communicative, and so easy to coordinate with. This was my first experience using Rover and she patiently helped with every step of the logistics when I had trouble with the app. She is responsive, asks great questions, and is extremely kind and capable. Our dog injured her leg just before we went away and Rhianna didn't hesitate to step up with extra care to make sure she stayed safe and happy. The photos she sent us tell the story so clearly: Henry and Lulah were in great hands and can't wait for Rhianna - their new favorite person - to come back soon!”


“We cannot recommend Tricia highly enough! From the moment we met, we knew our home and pets were in great hands. She was incredibly reliable, responsible, and attentive to every detail. Our pets adored her, and it was clear they received lots of love and care while we were away. We came home to a spotless house and happy pets, we made our return so much easier. If you are looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate, look no further than Patricia. We will definitely be booking her again!”


“Christine was lovely with Bonnie. She spoiled her and I felt very comfortable leaving Bonnie in her care. She has a natural gift with dogs and just loves to be around them. Absolutely happy with Christine”


About: I am a former member of Tufts' "Animal Aid" club, a program that connects Tufts University students with local Medford/Somerville dog owners for free dog walking. Throughout this program, I have walked (and dog-sat for) seven dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Even though I've graduated, I still want to continue caring for pets in my neighborhood! You can have peace of mind knowing that your pets will receive high quality care from an experienced, passionate, and attentive caregiver. I am currently a full-time intern in Beverly. Thus, on weekdays, I am available for evening walks after 4pm. On weekends, I am available at any time for walks, check-ins, or extended stays! I am more than happy to discuss your furry friend's specific needs and find a care plan that works best for both you and your pet!

“I am beyond happy with the quality of care Julia and Fran provided. They are so nice and accommodating, and it eased my worries knowing that my pups were in good hands while I was away. I would give 10 stars if I could! Thank you so much :)”


About: I've taken care of many animals throughout my lifetime because I grew up with pets and have been a reliable petsitter for family, family friends, and friends since high school. I also have two cats of my own named Ramone (orange tuxedo tabby) and Gibby (standard black void) that I’ve had the honor of caring for and spoiling. My pet care experience includes drop-ins for cats, walking dogs, and nursing dogs to health (feeding medication). I’m currently a full-time kid swim coach for a swim academy and my schedule remains fairly consistent. I have availability Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 8:30AM to 11:30AM and I have Fridays and Sundays off with availability in the mornings and late afternoons/evenings. I’m a cleanly, reserved, and organized person who cares for routine and my experience living with multiple roommates has taught me how to keep common spaces tidy. I clean my cats’ litter boxes at least once a day and do a deep clean once a month. I have a reliable form of transportation (a car) and I’m happy to commute to client’s homes.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I have watched so many breeds, training levels, and energy of dogs. I have learned how to adapt to different dogs to give them the best care. I am an active person so LOVE to go on runs with dogs (my preferred way of running). I have a very flexible work schedule where I only need to be in the office for a required time of 3 hours a day so can stay with your pet if needed. I have my own pet free apartment that has many parks and walking paths around it. This allows your dog to be as active as you’d like them to be. In general I am very active so can go in daily runs (in addition to walks) with your dogs, or hikes. Additionally I have space to crate your dog.

“Kelly was great. She came to meet my dog Ellie beforehand and she took to her right away! Kelly asked good questions and had great communication. I’ll definitely reach out again!”

Alexandra K.
“I’m happy to recommend Alexandra as a dog walker on Rover. What stands out most about her is her genuine love for dogs—it’s obvious from the moment she meets them. Alexandra has a natural warmth and calm energy that dogs seem to immediately respond to, and she treats every dog she meets with kindness, patience, and respect. She’s the kind of person who stops to greet dogs on the street, remembers their names, and lights up whenever she’s around animals. It’s clear that she doesn’t just like dogs—she truly cares about their well-being and happiness. I trust her completely with my dog, and I always feel confident knowing they’re in good hands when they’re with her. If you're looking for someone who will care for your dog with genuine affection and attention, Alexandra is a wonderful choice.”

Emma was very attentive and communicative! She shared lots of photos and was great to work with, we would love to have her watch our dogs again.

Jamila was an absolutely fabulous house sitter. She sent us the sweetest notes and most adorable pictures of our cat Harold and dog Millie while we were away. You could tell she was so in tune with our pets and understood their quirks and needs right off the bat. Jamila was able to stay at home all week to accommodate Millie’s isolation anxiety and was so flexible with her needs. She was extremely respectful of our home and left it immaculate- towels and sheets washed and no fur tumbleweeds in sight! We are so grateful Jamila was able to care for our furry family. We highly recommend her services!
Nina is truly great for peace of mind taking care of my cats when I travel. She is very responsive, does a great job following my instructions, and I love having her sit for me!

Grace was great with my girls! She was responsive and gave enough updates for me to feel comfortable.

Clark took care of my two cats over the winter holidays for two weeks and did a great job. They both warmed up to him by the end of the 2 weeks. Robot litter boxes were emptied as needed. Cats were fed. Cat pics were shared.

Our kitty loves Lindsay! She takes such good care of her. It makes me feel so good about leaving her knowing she is well taken care of.

Nick came to our house last minute and he took care of our 14 year old dog and cat. He did a great job and our house was clean. We would ask for his services again. Thank you Nick!

Tom petsitted our three dogs during 11 days. He took very good care of them and made sure they had plenty of excercise. He even got Mira a cool disco ball she loves. Communication was great and he also sent photos every day. We came back to a very clean house. We highly recommend Tom.

I knew at the meet and greet that Noah was the perfect fit for my pets. Noah is friendly, patient , and has a gentle way about him that made me and my pets at ease. I wouldn't hesitate a minute to recommend him, even for the most anxious pets. He has a special gift.
