“Tiffany was awesome! We left our 3yr old Boxer with her for a week over Christmas, and she had us totally at ease while we were away. She sent lots of photo updates, and some fun videos of him playing as well. She genuinely cares about the pups she boards, and treats them like her own. I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Dusty had a great time with Julie, and she was terrific. Warm and caring, really great communication throughout Dusty’s stay, which is always much appreciated. Flexible and understanding on a traffic delay I had coming to get her. Would definitely have Dusty stay again and highly recommend to anyone else looking for quality care for your pup!”
“Maddy was so wonderful with my dog Jester!! We got tons of pictures and videos and you could tell how happy Jester was staying there. I was assured the whole time that my dog was well taken care of. We will use her again!”
“Shana took awesome care of my pup! I plan to use her again. She was also super flexible and very easy to plan and communicate with. I had a slightly earlier pick time as my flight home changed several times due to a cancellation, rebooking, and then two more delays so her flexibility was really helpful and made everything easy!”
“Mia and Taowei were both lovely and took great care of Tupelo! They were very responsive and sent lovely updates and photos each day. They were quick to ask any questions they had and it was clear they cared about understanding what would take Tupelo the most comfortable.”
“Veronica was terrific with my little Shih Tzu. She cheerfully coped with administering a somewhat complicated regimen of pills and eyedrops, and kept me posted on how he was doing. Would definitely use again!”
“My dog was so excited to go back to Todd’s for an overnight stay. He had the best time whenever he goes there, gets plenty of walks, lots of attention, and comes home such a happy camper. Todd is a trusted sitter for us and I will continue to book with him whenever I need somewhere for my dog to stay!”
“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!”

“Kimberly and Brian were wonderful! They took sent lots of updates and pictures of my pup and took great care of him. With a senior dog who has to take medication morning and night, it was a relief to have him in such good friends. And he and their dog, Lola, became buds by the end of it. Would absolutely recommend them!”
“Chanel was an amazing host for our senior Shih Tsu, Kody. She made Kody feel right at home. She’s a natural caregiver, but also followed all the instructions and care tips we provided (morning meds, feeding, walks, etc.). Chanel was super communicative and made sure that we were updated during Kody’s stay. What a relief for us! (Thank you, Chanel. We’ll be back).”
“Our pup, Reese, absolutely adored Maggie and had a great stay! Maggie was amazing with Reese, so patient with her picky eating style and getting dirty at the park. She also paired our pup with another sweet dog who was staying with her, so they had a nice doggy hangout all weekend. Highly recommend!”
“Akhil and his wife were great, accommodating for our 12-yr-old girl (Maddie). Communication was easy and Akhil sent lots of photos to document her day. Thank you for taking her at slightly late notice!”
“Bosco loves his time with Jo & Adam. He gets excited whenever we are near their apartment and we know that means he's we'll cared for and has a great time with them.”
“Isabella is amazing at taking care of Marvin and Mellow. We shared our concerns when it came to us being nervous but she gave us loads of reassurance and kept us up to date. This was our second time with her, and she was great! No complaints.”
“John is the best sitter we could ask for! Our dog loves him and he spoils her with affection and lots of walks. We have now trusted him with a short trip and now a much longer trip. He provides great updates and makes us feel at ease leaving our baby. I would recommend him to any dog owner!”
“Lauren (+Matt) are incredible! Super warm, patient, and communicative, and helped me with an urgent request when my plans fell through. Remy had the best time, she can’t wait to go back!”
“Matias was so wonderful with my gal Daisy! From the get go, Matias was very communicative and professional. Daisy had a great time and was clearly well loved and cared for! Would 10/10 recommend!!”

“Amanda did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away on vacation! She was communicative and sent great pictures of him every day. He was happy and well cared for when I got back. Would definitely ask Amanda to watch him again in the future!”

“Yunwei was great. We came back to the house after a few days and it felt like nothing had changed! The cats seemed happy and normal. Yunwei sent LOTS of pictures which we appreciated. It was kind of amazing that she took so many in a 30 min stay 😂. Anyway, would definitely recommend Yunwei and she will be our first choice for watching our floofs going forward.”
“Stephanie was an exceptional pet sitter! She was communicative and friendly and my kitten loved her. She sent adorable pictures and kept me up to date on how each day was going. I was very nervous to leave my young kitten for my trip, but Stephanie made me feel confident in his care. Thank you, Stephanie!!”
“Amanda was so great! She was so easy to communicate with and she sent lots of pictures so we knew our cats were in good hands. She offered to refill the litter boxes and even cleaned up after one of our cats had an unfortunate puking accident. We’d definitely love to book her again for future services!”

“Stacy was an amazing cat sitter! Very detail-oriented, reliable, and caring. Our cat absolutely loved her, and the regular updates and photos gave us so much peace of mind and kept us sane while traveling. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. Highly recommend Stacy!”
“Andy did a great job watching our cats while we were away. We got timely updates and he communicated very clearly with us. Would definitely recommend!”

“Madison was so great with our 10 month old rescue cat. He needed liquid oral medication twice and Madison had no problem getting him to take it at the proper times. She also brought up our Chewy package to our apartment!! I loved all the photos she sent during her drop in visits and I could tell our cat loved her visits. Totally recommend.”
“Really great sitter and person. We had to go away last minute with an uncertain return date and one of the pets was sick, but Athena took care of everyone incredibly, was attentive to details, patient with our questions, and communicated updates throughout. We'll definitely book her again.”

About: Your pets will be in loving, reliable hands with me. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family, giving them so much attention and comfort that they won’t even notice you’re away🥰 I’m a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule, so I’m available most days and can easily adjust to your pet’s needs. Whether your pet requires extra cuddles, calm companionship, or lots of playtime, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and happy. When your pet stays in my home, they become part of my family from the moment they walk through the door. I provide a clean, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can relax, explore, and feel completely comfortable. I have 1 cat. Her name is Emerald she is 2 years old and she is absolutely spoiled. She has her own wall climbing catch tree that she loves and tons of toys.
“Rebecca was very friendly and communicative. She scheduled a meet and greet to introduce our dog to her space and asked insightful questions. She has great experience caring for larger dogs, and our dog came home relaxed and happy.”
“Quincy had a great day staying with Bella! Bella communicated well and was happy to do a meet and greet with us before booking. We love that her roommates and friends are around so even when she’s in class, there’s often someone home to keep Quincy cuddly. Would definitely book Bella again!”
“Our first Roover experience for us and we are so happy about Vienna's stay! Jim and his four years old little boy took amazing care of her and shared some cute videos at the park playing with her favorite ball over the day. We felt super relieved to see that she had a great day and was not too difficult (2 year old high energy golden at home and we were a bit anxious to give her away for a day). Everything went really well and we can't recommend enough Jim! We will use him again next time we need it! :)”
“Indrajeet was fantastic with Izzy! He was very responsive throughout the booking and it was clear Izzy had a great time with him. Would definitely book again!”
“As usual, my dog loves Ray, Ray does a great job of taking care of her and communicating about it, and I can rest easy enjoying dog-free events knowing that she’s in good hands. Thanks Ray!”
“So grateful for Lauren for talking amazing care of Arlo for us! Quick response for a last minute booking for daycare and Arlo had a great time! Will definitely be rebooking!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Maria and McAben! My husband and I were in Boston for work for a week and brought our three-year-old miniature dachshund, Enzo, along with us. Since we were staying in a hotel, we needed someone to care for him during the day for three consecutive days — and Maria and McAben were absolutely incredible. From the very start, they made us feel completely at ease. Leaving your dog with new people can be nerve-wracking, but we felt 100% confident and comfortable the entire time. Their apartment is welcoming and dog-friendly, and it was clear that Enzo was treated like part of the family. They showered him with cuddles and attention, sent frequent photo updates, and checked in thoughtfully throughout the day. Their communication was outstanding — proactive, warm, and reassuring. It meant so much to know he was not only safe, but genuinely happy and loved. Maria and McAben are truly wonderful people who clearly care deeply about the dogs they look after. We would book them again in a heartbeat — 1,000% recommend — and feel confident they would do an amazing job with dogs of all kinds. Thank you both for taking such great care of our little guy!”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was in 5th grade. Whether I went to the owners house or they came to mine, I treated them with love and kindness. I’ve worked with little, medium, and big dogs, and they have been long term clients! People actually call me the dog whisperer! I have college classes Monday, Wednesday, annd Fridays. Other than that, i will be home with your pups! they can relax with me around the house or go out with me for errands or anything else! I treat them with love and plenty of play time! Dogs are allowed on our beds and furniture, so they will get lots of cuddles! I allow them to explore the house so they can get comfortable in the new environment and let them warm up to me so they are not scared. I have a big park just right across from me, I am in a very walkable neighborhood, so they will get great walks. I also have a big back porch they can lounge around!
“Lauren was amazing! She was super communicative, kind, and took great care of my dog. I felt completely at ease, and my pup came back happy and relaxed. Highly recommend her!”

“Emma was so wonderful with Reggie. Our dog isn’t always the best with strangers and Emma was so good stepping in and making him comfortable. Will definitely book again.”
“Stephanie did an amazing job walking Mookie! She was incredibly helpful and showed so much patience during their first meeting, making sure Mookie felt comfortable and at ease. It was clear she genuinely cared about making the experience great for both of us. I would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog walker. Mookie can’t wait for his next walk with her!”
About: I have a senior blind, deaf puppy who I have had the privilege of taking care of. He is super energetic as well so I know how to deal with pretty much any kind of dog who may have an impairment, or also just a friendly super active dog. I am currently studying Advertising at BU! I live a very active lifestyle as running is one of my main hobbies. My classes are pretty dispersed so I have a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week. I can crate your dog if necessary, and will probably have them on a leash most of the time for safety unless we are in an environment where they can run freely!
“Kaitlin was quick to reach out about Pep making some unusual sounds and we were able to troubleshoot it together. I appreciate her being so thoughtful and kind to my pup.”
About: I am new to Rover, but have taken care of dogs since I was 11 with my childhood dogs, most large sized! Additionally, I have ample experience with pet sitting for neighbors, including both cats and dogs, and overnight stays. I am familiar with dogs with special dietary needs and preparing their meals, and distributing oral medication. I love meeting all kinds of pets and seeing each one’s unique personalities! I am a recent BU graduate with quite the flexible schedule! While I do some remote tasks from home each day, I am able to create my own schedule. Therefore, I can accommodate a variety of visits. I am only unavailable Wednesday nights from 6:30-9:30 pm. With the services I provide, I can help ensure a safe environment for your pet at your home or on walks. I am experienced with pets that are crate trained as well as pets that are not. I understand that each pet may have different levels of trust towards new people and look forward to building that with them!
About: I've grown up with dogs of all kinds and ages (my childhood dog- the most precious shapendoes- passed recently at age 15). I'm a graduate student with a flexible schedule, and could arrange to spend time with your dog during regular work days! Please reach out with any questions! Warmly, Alex I spend most of my time reading, writing, and studying, which all can (and should!) be done in the presence of a dog! Most of my work is remote! I’ve taken care of dogs with a variety of different needs- including an elderly fellow who needed to be carried up stairs, a hearing-impaired friend who needed visual cues, and a small sir who needed extra supervision around household and neighborhood hazards.
About: I have tons of pet sitting experience, while I was applying for graduate school it was a main source of income. I often would stay in people’s homes taking care of up to three dogs at once, had numerous household where I fed and played with cats and even small kittens. I also spent time nannying the sweetest two year old for 7 months until I had to move (children and pets aren’t quite the same, but also they are both family). I even managed to keep an eye out for the two-year-olds two Siamese cats. I am eagerly waiting to have my own pet but am waiting for more stability in my life so I like to find other ways to be around animals until then. I am a current grad student, I have class on Monday morning, Tuesday evening, all day Thursday and Friday mornings! I have a lot of time free on weekends/my schedule is very adaptable since I just have to go into my art studio to get work done. I live in a small apartment, but could host pets for a day! I have a lot of dog and cat sitting experience, and am extremely communicative/available
About: I have taken care of all types and sizes of dogs since I was very young. I grew up with a springer spaniel who was very energetic and enjoyed long walks and runs. I have experience taking care of old dogs with lots of medications and assistance needed (carrying up/down stairs, etc.). I look forward to helping out with your pup! I work full-time Monday–Friday, but my schedule is flexible. I’m only in the office two days a week, and those days can vary, which allows me plenty of availability for pet care. I’m available both during the week and on weekends and am happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s needs! My apartment is pet friendly and I have furniture that pets can sit on. I live right next to the esplanade which is great for walks!
“Stacy has been a lifesaver. We moved to the Boston area with little notice, and our mini poodle needed a dog walker on the days me and my spouse were at the office. Stacy stepped in and has taken excellent walks, and is super communicative and responsive. Our pooch and we are super happy with Stacy's service.”
About: I was a long time pet parent for over 20 years. I've lived in the East Cambridge area for over 3 years and know all the best spots for walks. I stay home most of the day, so I can keep a close eye on your pet. My schedule is currently very flexible, and I'm available most days from morning to late afternoon. I'm happy to work with you to find a time that works best for everyone. I was previously a realtor assistant and have 10+ years of experience entering other's homes, respecting privacy, and making sure to securely lock the entryways before leaving.
“Emily is a fantastic, wonderfully caring dog walker / pet care taker. We use her services for daily weekday walks for both of our dogs which have very different needs ( a 14 yr old golden doodle with mobility issues and a 10 yr old lab that still thinks she's 3 yr old spring chicken). She has also house sat over a navigation for us so that they didn't have to go into a kennel. She is trustworthy, communicative and extremely kind. You'd be fortunate to have her services.”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have always been the person who gets excited when there’s a dog in the room. My family has had our dog for the past 10 years, so I’m very comfortable with the day-to-day realities of caring for a dog—from walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping them company to simply making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’ve also helped care for and pet-sit dogs for friends and others over the years. While I’m new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to being around dogs or taking care of them. I’m a physician by training and currently have a very flexible schedule due to a recent surgery, which gives me plenty of time and attention to devote to the dogs I care for. I’m responsible, dependable, attentive to details, and take seriously the trust involved in having someone else care for a member of your family. Most importantly, I genuinely love dogs and would be thrilled to spend some of my extra time walking, playing with, and caring for yours! My schedule is currently very flexible, with a combination of remote research and other flexible work. I’m available for walks and drop-ins throughout the week in the Cambridge/Boston area and can often accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, and last-minute requests. I’m happy to work around your dog’s usual routine whenever possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog—and your home—in someone else’s care. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including your dog’s normal walking route, feeding schedule, medications, and any behavioral or safety considerations. On walks, I’m attentive to traffic, other dogs, and anything else that could pose a risk. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know your pup is safe and having a good time!

“My very sweet, energetic and sometimes anxious Ruby had another very happy stay with Michelle. I can tell how much Michelle loves dogs in how thoughtful she is interacting with them. Although I miss Ruby while I'm away, it is so so comforting knowing she is with Michelle, & getting such wonderful attention & care. Thank you, Michelle!!!”
“Zelun and his wife took AMAZING care of my dog while I was gone for over a week! They sent pictures and videos, took him on a little day trip (pre approved) and definitely loved my pup as their own while I was away :)”
