We definitely would have Benjamin take care of our kitties again! 😊”

About: My goal is to give your pup a happy and careful walk/stay. I have a great passion for animals and have been around them my entire life. I no longer have pets of my own, but I'd love to spoil your fur baby! I am currently a full time student so I will have plenty of time for walks, play time, and snuggles between classes and study breaks. I dont have a yard, but there are several parks near by if youre comfortable allowing your pet in public parks. If not, im happy to walk them till theyre nice and worn out. I don't have a crate, so if you would like your pet crated during the night please bring your own.
“Nate is a wonder with my pups and super accommodating to me. This was my first time using rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! He sent pictures, and bonded with both of my dogs who are typically skeptical of new people. They felt right at home with Nate and I couldn’t appreciate it more.”
“Ben and his family took great care of Zelda and were very accommodating of our busy schedule. She came home happy and well exercised from playing with their pups all day. We will definitely book with Ben again!”

“Tira was excellent with Charlie. I was on a flight, and feeling with travel and communication on arrival, departure and pics were all timely. I was confident Charlie was in good hands. I would definitely have Tira walk my pup again anytime.”
About: I have no professional experience with pets, but I grew up with a dog throughout my childhood and I love spending time with cats and dogs I am not working currently so I have plenty of time to take care of pets and I am free basically every day of the week I live alone with no pets or roommates, so my whole apartment is open and I have the time to make sure any pets are looked after throughout the day
About: I grew up with two family dogs, both golden retrievers, and have much experience dog sitting my friends’ pets! I’ve gained valuable experience taking care of both cats and dogs since joining Rover, and I take pride in my feedback of being attentive to detailed and responsive to the many furry friends I’ve taken care of so far :) I’m currently only working part time. So I am free to cat and dog sit by giving full attention with a flexible schedule, weekdays and weekends. I live in a pet friendly apartment with a small park nearby. So walks wouldn’t be a problem and my apartment is big enough for the to play around as well.
“I could not recommend Hillary enough! She is kind, patient, communicative and takes the best photos of the best adventures 🥰 She is the perfect choice for someone to trust with your pet!”
About: Spent extensive time caring after my families dogs & cats as well as the pets of my neighborhood. I also look after my friends cats and dogs of Boston and Maine. Comfortable with walking, playing with, feeding, and even some light training with dogs. I don’t have certifications with dog training but I would be happy to reinforce training you do with them for some light commands. I work in sales in a fairly fluid environment. I spend some time at home and the rest of my time around the city and greater Boston. Drop in pet care/walking fits perfectly into my schedule as I can work from my computer and travel when needed. I do have a fenced in yard but I’m not currently accepting pet care in my own home outside of the critters I already have. I may open up to this in the future but I do use a lot of space In my car already.
