“Ben made sure that he asked all the right questions and knew everything he had to know before I dropped Dumpling off. She was happy when I picked her up from Ben's and I would definitely recommend him.”
“Can not recommend Kathryn enough! We were very nervous to leave our 1 year old puppy for the first time, but Kathryn calmed all our nerves. She answered our many questions, provided updates with pictures and videos, and tended to Millie’s quirks! Millie will be spending time with Kathryn and Tony for all of our future needs!”
“Tyler and his wife did such an amazing job caring for Walter! They were very communicative and sent pictures throughout his stay. I would absolutely trust them to care for my baby again!!”

Megan quickly calmed all our nerves by sending so many pictures and be very communicative. We’re so happy we decided to go with Megan and will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Sofia was open, thoughtful, and unfazed about our dogs' quirks. Even for one overnight, she sent plenty of updates and photos, and her commentary demonstrated she was interested in learning about our dogs' personalities. This was my first booking with her and I couldn't be more pleased! Recommend dog owners tell her everything (even the bad stuff), and she'll handle it with ease.”
“Lyn was fantastic with Luka! It was the first time leaving Luka overnight while my boyfriend and I went away for the weekend. Lyn cared for Luka spectacularly with daily exercise, playtime, and treats. She sent regular updates of how he was doing, along with pictures of what they were up to. Thank you so much Lyn!”

About: I have worked with farm animals including dogs and cats for about 2 years and I own a dog and a cat! I also love interacting with animals. I am looking for a simple job to keep me active and be able to give back to my community. I would love to care for animals of all shapes and sizes while also ensuring your home and pets are safe. In my home, we have a big backyard with plenty of room for dogs and a whole separate cat room. Within another person's house I would be respecting boundaries put up around the house and being consistent and well aware of clean up! I also love getting out, which would be favorable for a dog.
“It was clear that our dog was in excellent hands! Ilya was dedicated to providing tons of exercise in the parks nearby, and giving us detailed, routine updates on how the days were going. What sets Ilyad apart is his commitment to communication – these regular, detailed updates put our minds at ease and let us know our dog was thriving. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a reliable and responsible caretaker for our 2 year old Whippet, we can't recommend him highly enough! Chelsey & Dan”
“Kimberlyn is wonderful and was so flexible to accommodate us with a change in pickup time! Our golden retriever Maggie has stayed with her many times and always comes home so happy. We would 100% book again!”

“We had a last minute trip during a holiday weekend and reached out to Hunter who quickly agreed to take care of our 15 year old toy poodle. She was quick to respond and provided great communication during the entire care. Our dog also got along great with her dogs. Would use her again!”
“It was our first time leaving Miss Kiki alone with anyone else overnight and we were a bit worried how she’d react. Well, Victoria put me at ease with a meet/greet a couple of days before to get acquainted. She stayed over for two full nights and during that time I received pics of their walks, bath and just hanging out cuddling etc. I would/will call upon Victoria again - she truly put me at ease. Oh, and Miss Kiki loved her too!”

“Emily was great with our dog Reggie while we were away for a few days. She was quick to respond, flexible on timing, handled his medication schedule, and gave frequent updates. Would recommend her and use her again!”
“Michelle took exceptional care of my very nervous and anxious dog. I received daily pictures and updates while I was away letting me know how my pup was doing. Would absolutely book Michelle again!”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Lynne was absolutely amazing! Georgia was not a good fit in another sitter's home and we decided it was best to rehome her during the stay. Lynne stepped in at the last minute and agreed to watch Georgia. Georgia had a great time. She loved the other dogs which brought her out of her shell. Lynne was communicative the entire time and sent great photos. I felt very comfortable with Lynne having Georgia and would highly reccomend.”

On the last day the weather was super hot in Boston and Gabrielle even offered to come by the apartment to turn on the AC in addition to her planned visits! She’s super sweet and very responsive.

About: I grew up with dogs and trained my yorkie from puppyhood, so I understand how to build good habits and create a calm, friendly environment for dogs. With a background in animal science and behavioral neuroscience. I’m patient and attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs. also lots of play and walk! I can only care for dogs under 25lbs due to my apartment size, my own dog’s size, and my physique. This is to ensure your baby has enough room to play and safe to walk around with me. I am working remotely on Wednesday and Friday. My work is flexible and usually very chill on these days. I bring my own dog to dog parks and meet his dog friends throughout the day during these two days. On weekends, i bring my own dog to nearby big parks, hiking trails, beaches, and lake and I will make sure to do that with your dog too. Playtime guaranteed! I live in a small apartment in a large complex with a courtyard and rooftop green spaces, and I’m also close to two neighborhood parks and a fenced dog park where I take my own dog—a friendly 4-year-old Yorkie—every day. Dogs staying with me get regular walks, attention, and a calm environment; they’re welcome to sleep on the bed if they like, but I’m also completely comfortable following crate routines if that’s what they’re used to. I have worked with animals in the past and have experience in administering medications orally or through sub-q/ip injections.
“Xiaoyuan and William were the absolute best! Ellie has a great day with them and their mom and dog Mina. We can’t wait to have Ellie stay with them again!”
“Ollie had such a great time with Emily, Robbie, and Auggie! We appreciated all the pictures and great communication. He came home happy and sleepy from all his fun.”
“Lindsay is the best! This was our second time using her services, and we feel so comfortable leaving our pup Sammy in her care. She takes great care of Sammy, who is always happy to spend time Bentley. Highly recommend!”

About: My family has had dogs and cats since I was young and I now have a cat of my own. As a kid I got to know my neighbors through their dogs. I have experience taking take of dogs of various breeds, sizes and ages. I am currently working full-time with a flexible schedule. Let me know what you need and I will do my best to make it work. I quadruple check that harness and leash are secure before we even leave the house. Every pet has their own needs and will discuss with you before taking care of your pet.
“Alexander came through for us when we needed a reliable walker on short notice. Our dog took to him immediately. We appreciated how well he communicated with us, and how he was always on time. We would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a dog walker.”
About: I’ve worked in doggy daycare, I’ve trained my grandmother’s puppy, ✨I have a certificate in basic knowledge of dog body language✨, will clean up all accidents, I’m comfortable & capable of taking care of all dog sizes, and most importantly - I will make sure your furry friend has the best time! I’m extremely loving towards dogs and super passionate in making sure they’re happy :) After all, they unconditionally care for us - it’s only fair we give them the same respect. I take great pleasure in making sure your companion is safe and fully fended for while you’re away! I work a part-time job currently, but I get to choose my own schedule and can tailor it to fit your needs! I’m also a full-time college student but have acclaimed time management skills. *Please note that Rover only lets me choose day availability. You may request a day that appears open, but my availability is dependent on the specific times that you select.* I’ll feed your pet/s, frequently give water when needed, make sure they get playtime, take them outside to go potty (or help them to go inside if you prefer pads), give treats on good behavior (if permitted), and overall make sure you have a happy pup :)
“Emily is reliable, consistent, and flexible. She provides thorough updates of her walks with pictures and feedback. I trust her 100% to care for my one year old Maltipoo, Milo. Highly recommended!”
About: While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for pets. I’ve had two cats for the past 4 years and have pet sat for friends and family when they’ve needed help. I’m reliable, responsible, and happy to follow whatever routine and instructions help you and your pet feel most comfortable. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax while you’re away. I work full-time (6am-2pm) as a scientist, so I’m generally available for afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. My schedule can be flexible though to accommodate for early morning visits. I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they need before accepting a booking. I use Rover myself so I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully, keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable until you’re back. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing.
