“Janette and her family were so welcoming and loving with my dog, Ridley. We got lots of updates and photos of her enjoying her stay, and felt completely at ease leaving her in their care.”
“Junho might be the best sitter in the North Cambridge area. When it comes to caring for your dog, the most important aspect is genuine love and care. You can tell that your dog is having a blast by checking the constant photos and live updates from Junho. As you can see from those photos, it's easy to tell how much love my dog was given during this stay. Furthermore, Junho was really flexible in fitting my schedule, which was out of the ordinary due to having a baby. If you need someone to take care of your dog, it's Junho”
“Miley had a great time, was well fed, and beloved by Andrea and her family. I will be using her again and already recommended her to a friend! Thanks Andrea!”
“Lyn watched Jack for 5 nights, it was his first time staying with her. Lyn was very professional, flexible, and caring! She was easy to communicate with and I received daily updates and pictures from her. Jack seemed to have a good time with her, I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!”
“I haven’t used Rover in awhile as I started traveling with my pug Captain...but for a recent quick trip I decided it was worth it. I saw Ben’s profile and thought he seemed like a great fit to watch Captain. Ben and his girlfriend loved watching Captain and raved about their time with him. I could tell Captain also enjoyed himself! Ben was also very responsive and accommodated my schedule for pick up/drop off. I’d definitely use Ben as our dog sitter for our next trip!”
“Victoria was great with my puggle for a ~2 week stay. She sent periodic pics and updates, gave her medications, and had no issues. Would definitely rebook in the future.”
“Renee is great! Our dog loves her so much I am jealous. On the practical side, Renee kept us updated daily about our dog's activities and mood. She was 100% reliable, and that is really what you want when you are out of the country and leaving your pet with someone!”
“Emily and Rob are wonderful people and provided a warm and loving home for our goldendoodle Homer. They were very accommodating as my wife and I had a challenging and ever-changing schedule prior to picking up Homer. We highly recommended them!”
“Yesika is so great with our Dougie! She’s always super communicative, takes very good care of Doug, and treats him like her own - can’t recommend her enough!”
“Natalie is phenomenal!!! She took such great care of Teddy. Her communication was outstanding, sending pictures and texts throughout the day. Such a sweet and kind person that you will feel so comfortable leaving your dog with.”
“We’ve used Aurora multiple times for boarding with Hondo and she’s done a great job! Hondo is always excited to go and she’s very responsive and provides lots of updates.”
“Yulia and her family took very good care of Skye. We are sure that Skye received lots of love and attention. Yulia updated us with some lovely pictures. Thank you so much for taking good care of Skye. See you soon, again!”
“I have a 9 year old dog named Kyah that I absolutely adore and she has never been away from the family overnight. I was very nervous about leaving her and wasn't sure how she (or I) would handle it. Luciana and her mother did such an amazing job and I cannot thank them enough! After the initial meet and greet, I scheduled a trial sleepover for 1 night right before the scheduled stay (5 nights) so that Kyah could get to know them, familiarize herself with the new surroundings, and to reinforce that I was coming back - that may have been more for my peace of mind. Luciana and her mother took such great care of Kyah. They took her for walks, adhered to her special diet and gave her medications as needed. They even took a bunch of pictures and sent them to me! There were 2 specific things that occurred and gave me ABSOLUTE COMFORT & CONFIDENCE that Kyah was well cared for. 1) When I brought Kyah over for the actual stay (after the initial trial sleepover), she noticed Luciana' mother sitting on the couch and she happily walked over and greeted her. 2) When I picked her up after being away for 6 days, she was really excited to see me AND as we were walking away to my car, Luciana's mother said goodbye to Kyah and she actually turned around, walked back over to her and said "goodbye". Both of those examples left significant impressions because my dog is pretty aloof and doesn't usually show affection to anyone other than her family. Luciana and her mother make a great team and I highly recommend them. I have already made arrangements for this summer!”
“Alex is the best! My dog has been sick and Alex took good care of her and was attentive. My dog was on meds & she made sure she took her pills. Strongly recommend Alex!”
“Holly spent a very fun week with Rob and his family during our vacation. Being able to play and socialize with other dogs for a week made it a vacation for her as well! I felt completely comfortable knowing that Holly was safe and well cared for.”
“Ashley took wonderful care of our dog! She knew he needed exercise and took him on lots of long walks and played ball with him frequently. We would happily use her again.”
“Belinda was wonderful with our furbaby and sent us an update each day. She was very accessible by text and easy to communicate with. Our dog got along well with her dog, Sloane, who is a sweetie. Also, she has the perfect fenced in yard for the dogs to play! We will certainly work with Belinda again!”
“Natasha is a wonderful person, so calm and organized. Our meet & greet with her went so well, and I was at ease leaving our dog with her while we traveled! While we were out, she provided regular updates and photos, which was so nice. Our dog was happy and relaxed during her stay with Natasha, even though it was her first time away from home! Thank you so much, Natasha! ❤️”

“Dave was the one I met for taking care of our two cats. He is very nice and easy to communicate. I received pictures everyday after his visit and he left tons of water and kept the litter super clean. Thanks a lot!”
“Jordan was great. No issues whatsoever with my diabetic cat’s insulin injections. She was thorough and clean. Will definitely book Jordan again.”
“This was our first time using Rover and I was very pleased with both the app itself and our sitter, Priety. The app makes payment and exchanging information so easy. I also loved the alerts about the visits. Priety definitely used the app to is full potential by sending us lots of pics and updates. I really loved that she seemed genuinely excited when our grumpy cat finally asked for some pretty from her. It's nice to know that your sitter truly enjoyed her work. Thank you!”
“Marina was a wonderful cat sitter! She came by a few days before my vacation to meet my cat and get him comfortable around her. My cat is young and wary of strangers. He usually doesn’t go up to people he doesn’t know, but he was immediately comfortable with Marina. While I was away, she took very detailed notes and plenty of pictures. I had assurance that my cat was getting the playtime he needs (he’s very active). I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that he was in good hands!”
“This was my fourth time booking Anna for drop-in visits - because she's great! Anna is reliable, communicative and hard-working. She got down on the floor every day to check on my two scaredy-cats who hide under the couch whenever a stranger is in the house. I always feel confident leaving my kitties under Anna's care while I'm on vacation.”
“We’ve got very tough kitties that require medication and hide. Given that, our expectations are adjusted. Upon short notice, Sharon was able to care for our kitties. Sharon was unable to give one of our kitties an insulin shot one evening due to hiding under the bed. She communicated this to us real-time. She waited at the visit to attempt again. Upon receiving response, she used new techniques in her next visit with success. She sent photos. Prior to the visit she came by to meet our cats and see the routine. All in all we were very happy with her support.”
“Ari was fantastic with my kitties! My cats both need oral medication every morning so I was a bit worried to leave them, but Ari took great care of them. I recieved thorough notes for each visit and multiple photos every morning. I was very reassured they were in good hands. I will be rebooking in the future!”
“Jolene dropped in while we are away to take care of our Ash. She was very communicative, provided pictures, and met our requests. We look forward to future requests with Jolene”
“They were great with our cat Peach when we needed someone to stop in and feed him over the holiday weekend. They paid close attention to our instructions for his care and everything went very smoothly. Highly recommend them!”
“Amarais was very attentive to my cat & took the time for an intro visit before my trip. I really appreciate that she took time to brush him out & water my outdoor plants.”
“Eunae took exceptional care of our senior kitty. He can be slow to open up to new people, but warmed right up to her. Eunae’s updates were thorough and reassuring. She is awesome and we’ll gladly hire her again!”
“Incredible attention to detail, went above and beyond caring for my cat and apartment every time she visited. Already have hired Lisa twice and will do so again when needed without second thought.”
“Clare did an amazing job with my two cats! She played with them, brushed them and made sure all the necessities were taken care of. I loved the photos with each report! Will definitely use her again!”
“Caroline did a great job checking in on my cat while I was away on vacation. She kept everything neat and tidy, paid attention to detail, and was fast/prompt with any communication. Would definitely recommend and will rebook if needed in the future.”
“It was pleasure to have Traci stay at my home! She made me feel really comfortable and followed all the Instructions given. She even looked after my Bonsai trees.”

Junho was very communicative of how Vista was doing, making sure she had everything she needed to enjoy her days, from her food, to play and outside time. It is clear that he truly loves dogs and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone with a kind heart to care for their pet.”
“If I could leave 10 stars, I would. Greta was absolutely AMAZING. Great communication, and an extremely happy pup when I picked her up. Thank you so much Greta for taking care of my Gracie as if she were your own.”
“I could not be happier with Maria and Caesar. My dog, Gary, can be a nervous little guy but by day 2, he was already happy to see Caesar at drop off and Caesar was excited to see him too! Maria sends me pictures and updates every day Gary is with them which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. They’ve been really flexible with drop off and pick up times and have even accepted last minute bookings. I can’t say enough good things about Maria and Caesar and if Gary could talk, I’m sure he would say the same.”
