“Nick was awesome! He was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and friendly. He took great care of our pup and she had a great time. Hulk is super sweet and chill so it was definitely a bonus that they got to hang out all day! Will 100% book with Nick again in the future.”
“Heidi was amazing! Very attentive and loves every dog she takes care of. We got so many great videos and pictures while we were away and our dog was so happy to be there! Would definitely leave our dog with Heidi again!”
“This was our first Rover experience and Theresa was beyond amazing! Moose had to have an unexpected medical procedure done the night before we were leaving. Theresa communicated with us from the moment we left until we got back. She sent pictures, videos, and lots of updates. She was comfortable giving him his antibiotics and made sure his incision site was clean. I cannot say enough great things about this experience. Moose already misses her and her dog, Machi.”
“Jaime was great with my mini poodle. He was with her for 8 days and she communicated daily, sent photo updates, and texted questions when needed. My pooch came home happy!”
“What can I say? Nothing says more than watching my dogs’ reactions when they see Jess - pure excitement! They absolutely adore her and her family, and that tells me everything I need to know. Going away used to be so hard for me because I hated leaving my two BFFs behind. Now, as much as they are still my life, I can walk away feeling completely at ease knowing they’re happy, loved, and in the very best hands. There’s no worrying or feeling guilty - they’re too busy having their own little vacation with Jess and her family! Also, I can always tell when I pick them up that they’ve had a great time. They come home happy, relaxed, and completely themselves — which, to me, says it all! We feel incredibly lucky to have found Jess and her loving family to care for our fur babies. Nothing is better than going on vacation, guilt-free, knowing your little buddies are away having fun, too! While away, peace of mind means everything to me, which is one of the many reasons why I so highly recommend Jess.”
“Ashley was fantastic with our dog Gus! She sent lots of pictures and videos! She took him for the first time after a very last minute cancellation by another Rover provider!. We really appreciated it and would definitely recommend her!”
“Sarah and Ben took great care of Percy. He had a lot fun playing with other dogs and enjoyed getting cuddles from Sarah and Ben. We will definitely be back. Thank you again for taking such great care of of our big “puppy” :)”
“Took great care of my dog on short notice! My English bulldog is almost 10 and has certain special needs including medications. Gabriel followed the instructions to a T and communicated with me regularly about how my dog was doing.”
“Kevin was a great host for our pup Skylar while we were away for the weekend. He was super communicative, and sent lots of pictures, which we love. Skylar also needs some special care (daily meds and frequent walks) and Kevin was very accommodating. We would definitely use Kevin again.”
“Jing and her husband were great. They took great care of my dog for the week. Their house is in a great location and their fenced yard was great for my dog who is not always the best off leash. They clearly care for dogs. I would definitely find Jing again!”
“Grigorii took the best care of my dog. He was communicative, friendly, and thorough in his care. My dog is timid after a recent attack and Grigorii was patient and able to get her to come out of her shell over a few days’ stay. His dog is a sweetheart too so I felt confident the pups would get along. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone and I’d be disappointed if he wasn’t available next time I need a sitter!”
“This is Cleo and Sansa’s second stay with them. They are very flexible with our timing and the girls love to stay with them. Will definitely keep rebooking with them!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Cheryl. I would trust her with any pet of mine. She is very communicative and was wonderful with Robi. I would definitely book her again and recommend her to others.”
“Helen is a fabulous person who took amazing care of our pup Maverick!! I loved the daily updates of our dog with hers and could tell she just loves animals. I will definitely book with her the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“We have used many sitters for our dog, and Casey was at the top! She took excellent care of our boy while on vacation. Thank you Casey! We definitely recommend her and will dial her in the future.”
“Very happy with Norman’s stay. Dan has a sweet dog of his own that Norman for along with. They went in a nice walk up to Blue Hills for some outside time. Great communication to let me know everything was going well.”
About: I’m a caring cat and dog mom with lifelong experience with pets. I have a 3 year old cat and a 2 year old dog, who are my whole world. I love playing with energetic puppies and kittens, and I also have experience caring for sweet senior dogs, having grown up with two dogs with my parents. I’m a private music teacher with a flexible schedule and currently spend most of my time at home. Your pet will have plenty of company, supervision, and attention throughout the day. I provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and personalized care based on each pet’s routine. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walks throughout the week, including weekends and holidays, and I’m always happy to accommodate your pet’s needs whenever possible. I live with my husband, a friendly 2-year-old Bichpoo, and a calm, gentle cat. Our home is filled with cozy beds, toys, and treats for both cats and dogs. We’re also within walking distance of a dog park, making it easy to give dogs extra exercise and outdoor fun if that’s something they enjoy. We vacuum twice a day and mop every other day to keep our home clean, safe, and comfortable. Your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and personalized care, so they can feel relaxed, happy, and right at home.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom who is actively involved with a local rescue called Gals Best Pal. I have successfully fostered and homed over 13 dogs of all ages and sizes, and additionally volunteer with transports and events. For years, I have stepped in to help care for friends’ and family’s dogs when needed. Most recently, I spent the last year caring for my soul dog of six years who was diagnosed and unfortunately passed away from a rare chronic illness. Due to this experience, I am comfortable with dogs who need extra attention and daily medication since that’s the care I provided for her. Through caretaking and my fosters, I’ve become experienced with a wide range of personalities and needs. I also work from home 5 days a week, so your dog gets company and consistency all day, not just a quick visit! *Please note that there’s a friendly 8 month old GSD puppy in the house. If your pet prefers to be solo during their stay, my home can easily accommodate a no-contact visit. I’m no stranger to this, as my late dog preferred her independence too🙂 Feel free to reach out with any questions! I work from home full time, so most days your dog gets steady company, walks, and playtime built right into my routine. My only standing plans are a Monday night writing class and a Tuesday night pottery class. Both are just a couple hours each, so I’m happy to arrange coverage or crate time while I’m gone. My home currently includes my male partner and Maple, a German Shepherd puppy who’s very social. I’m happy to arrange supervised introductions if your dog wants company during their stay. And while Maple is a sweet girl, I also understand that not every dog wants a roommate 🙂 I can easily set up a no contact stay if your pup prefers time alone. Around the house, older and trained dogs get free range. Puppies who aren’t yet potty trained follow a crate routine and stay in a designated section of the house for their safety. I also have a separate office where all dogs get to hang out with me all day for extra company. The yard and patio out back aren’t fenced, so leashes or long leads come out for outdoor time. My late dog taught me just how much a pet’s environment matters to their comfort, so I take this seriously. I want every pet to feel genuinely welcome and secure in my home!

“This is the second time, we've used William to drop in for our cat. She's super shy and runs away when strangers come into the house, but William has been good with just feeding her and making sure she has what she needs!”
“Sara was so thoughtful and caring, beyond my expectations! I really appreciated how she went the extra mile. I definitely would recommend her and hope she is available in the future, should I need her. She was great! Thanks Sara!”

“Lacey took good care of my boys while I was away for the weekend! She gave my older cat oral medications+wet food and scooped the litter boxes. Even though my younger cat didn’t have any specific needs, she still played with him. Would definitely recommend Lacey to look after cats and I will be a repeat client :)”
“Simmy took excellent care of my cat, Varys, while I was away at a conference. He is really warming up to her, and I will continue to ask her to check on Varys when I have to leave him.”
“Tiffany has watched over my cat several times now and she reliably sends very thorough updates and a ton of pics with every visit! My cat seems to adore her and I'm always happy to have her watch over him”
About: I have two cats who couldn’t be more opposite but I love attending to their needs. My older cat, Sid, is not a people person, picky with food and is only a lap cat from October-January. His younger brother Scrat, loves people (almost too much), steals human food and sometimes poops outside of the litter box. I understand that cats are complex creatures with quirks of their own and I would love to help provide a level a care that I would to my own boys.
“Jaiming sent such thorough notes and photos from her visits. It made me feel so much better leaving my older kitty alone for a few days while we travel. I am so grateful for the TLC she showed to our senior kitty and how willing she was to take extra steps to make sure she got the care she needed.”
“Tiesha was super responsible, attentive, and punctual. We had detailed instructions for our cats and she followed every one of them. She was also sharing a lot of pictures and always communicated with us proactively on any updates/questions to make sure our kitties get the best care. We are having her over again for another upcoming trip and can't recommend her enough!”
“Lin was an excellent sitter! She visited our babies on a very regular schedule and gave them plenty of love and attention on every visit. I can tell they were very happy and she took great care of them. Thank you, Lin!”
“Erika checked in on our cat, Milo, while we were away for a 2-week trip, and she was fantastic! Very communicative, sweet to Milo, and sent lots of pictures (which we appreciate). Would definitely recommend her services!”
About: I’m an absolute cat lover with years of experience caring for cats and pet sitting for friends and family. As the proud mom of two orange tabbies, I’m very comfortable with energetic, playful cats—but I’ve also cared for my fair share of quieter, more independent kitties and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and needs. I genuinely love learning about cats and even enjoy watching Jackson Galaxy videos in my spare time, so I’ve become pretty good at reading feline body language and recognizing when a cat wants attention, playtime, space, or simply a cozy spot to relax. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat is a playful troublemaker, a shy observer, or a cuddly lap cat, I’d love the opportunity to give them the same love and attention I give my own cats! 🐱🧡

“Jaime and family were kind and communicative. This was my first time having her sit for Suzi Q and she made me feel that she was safe in her family's hands. It was also a plus that my dog got along with hers and Suziwas able to get out her energy in their fenced in yard.”

About: I pet my dog since he was 3 months and right now he already passed his almost hut his 4 years old birthday. Nothing serious happened to him ever. I have a WFH job so my schedule is pretty flexible. Unless there is meeting(Which may be 1 hour long at most), Or I have spare time to organize anything. I have a fenced yard to play, and I have a playful dog look for company too. I got plenty space since I live in a single family house. So enough space, place to run and company with the other dog
“It’s great to find someone you can trust to take care of your dog and Grigorii is that person!! My pup really enjoys staying with him and his dog Terra. He takes the dogs on fun walks, is a great communicator and sends nice photos so you can see how much fun your puppies having while you’re at work. I totally recommend! Thanks very much, Grigorii!”
“Marjorie had a wonderful time at Alena’s house. We are traveling all the way from Minnesota and found her on the website in Weymouth MA. Such a hot day we could not take the dog with us to meet a friend. Alena made my visit with a college roommate possible. Alena sent lots of reports and photos. I strongly recommend Alena.”
About: I enjoy meeting new animals and have 10+ years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Spending time with neighborhood pups has been a real joy, and I've looked after dogs of all sizes, from tiny breeds to gentle giants. My goal is always to build a caring, trusting relationship with both the animals and their humans. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family soon! I have a hybrid desk job. For overnight care, I am best matched with pets who can be left alone during my "in-office" day, usually once a week. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. That said, every pup is unique, so I’ll rely on you to share what works best for their routine, needs, and personality.
“Gabriel was a fantastic host to my little guy and came through at the last minute when I was in pinch. He gave me updates, sent photos and was very kind and easy to work with. Highly recommended as my pup came back to me super happy!”
“As a new dog mom I was hesitant to leave my puppy with a sitter. But I am happy to say that Atticia made me feel very comfortable. She responded to messages in a timely manner and kept me informed with pictures and videos throughout his stay. I will definitely use her again.”

About: I have been around dogs and other pets my whole life! I grew up with Rottweilers and my family currently has Bernese mountain dogs and boxers so I understand the energy that fuels these big babies. I have experience with cats along with other animals ranging from farm to reptile. I have changed dog diapers, administered medications, and have provided care from puppy to senior. My current life does not allow for a dog and I just have so much puppy love to give! I’m a teacher on summer break who also does not have much of a social life. I am very flexible currently and can fit with your schedule! I’m comfortable with what you are comfortable with! I have administered meds, changed dog diapers, and understand the importance of a watchful eye (my family dog will eat poop if she could).
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a family dog starting when I was 10 years old, which gave me years of experience caring for and spending time with dogs. Later, I had my own dog for 12 wonderful years. He was a huge part of my life, and caring for him taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, consistency, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll treat your dog with the same care, patience, and respect I would want for my own. I’m excited to give your pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care while you’re away! I work overnight shifts so I’m generally available during the daytime for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care. I can be flexible with scheduling and will work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. I have a fully fenced in yard where dogs can enjoy some outdoor time and play safely. I currently have no pets so they will get all the attention they deserve.

“Lauren has been an absolutely amazing dog walker for our 10 month old pup Leo. He is not the easiest on a leash but she is energetic and gives him the same love and attention that we would! We are so glad to have found Lauren - super reliable and communicates so well. Highly recommend!”
“Natalia is wonderful. Bo fell in love with her immediately. He is not the easiest dog to walk because he will sometimes stop dead in his tracks, but Natalia has no problem with him. I give her the highest recommendation possible.”
“Excellent communication from Thomas. My dog warmed up to him from the first minute they met. Thomas has also been super flexible with walk times and communication around arrival times. I’m extremely happy to have linked up with him and can’t recommend him highly enough!”
