“My pups Zeus and Dakota had an amazing time! Nadya was quick with responding to every update I asked for and any questions! Would highly recommend and will be dropping them off again for any future travels!”
“Millie absolutely loved her time with Larisa and Daisy! Larisa made sure to keep me updated on their daily adventures and send lots of pictures. Millie took multiple trips to the beach and walks at the bogs. We are very happy with the service and support Millie received while staying the weekend 😊 We will definitely reach out again for any pet sitting needs!”

“Kelsie was amazing! we felt completely at ease leaving Wells with her. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared for him like her own. Highly recommend”
“Roxy was a godsend! My dog Whitney loved her and was so comfortable in her lovely home. Whitney needed medications and assistance with a sore leg, which she professionally accommodated. It is hard to part from your beloved pets, but Roxy made this as stress free as possible.”
“Just picked our Sophie up from her third visit with Lora P. and she came through yet one more time! Sophie was happy to go there (no shakes on the way in like with kennels) and Sophie was happy and healthy when we returned a few days later. She will get to spend more time with Lora soon and we know she will have yet another wonderful experience!”
“Matthew & Jennifer were amazing hosts for our dog, Griffey. They provided numerous updates about his day. He came home happy and healthy. I can't recommend them highly enough.”
“Karin responded very quickly to my messages and sent lots of updates and pictures. She has a good set up in her house and back yard so dogs can be together or apart. She handled a challenging behavior from my dog very well. Highly recommend.”
“I highly recommend Seonmin to anyone looking for a professional, communicative dog watcher. She watched my pup, Coconut, for 7 nights and was incredibly responsive to me and gave me daily updates. She is responsible and has a dog of her own you can tell she takes great care of. It also helps that her and her partner are at home full time to give your dog great love and care! I would highly recommend her.”
“Sarah and her family were wonderful with our dog, Rory. It was clear he was getting lots of love and snuggles while we were away. Sarah provided pictures during our trip. We would gladly use Sarah again in the future!”
“Stefanie was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our dog! She was so responsive in messaging and followed great instructions for giving medication, feeding, walks, etc. Stefanie provided great exercise for Finn and sent lots of pictures and updates during his stay! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Our dog Nugget was immediately comfortable with Alana when I dropped him off for the night and they seem to have bonded really well. Alana is prompt with communication and very friendly.”
“Janice did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Ginger who is older and has anxiety. I had never left Ginger with anyone except family so I was a little apprehensive leaving her with someone she wasn’t too familiar with. Janice took care of all her needs, including her medication, and gave her lots of love and attention. Ginger felt right at home. I highly recommend Janice!”
“Helen provided exceptional care for Rosie, showing dedication, affection, and expertise. Each day, she kept me updated with beautiful pictures of Rosie. Within just two weeks, she successfully retrained Rosie to go potty outside, with 100% positive results. I can't recommend Helen enough—she is professional, communicates effectively, and most importantly, Rosie was truly happy in her care.”
“Angela, Paul, and Ana took amazing care of Beau! They sent lots of updates and photos of his time with them -- and it was wonderful seeing how well he was doing and knowing he was getting tons of attention while we were away! They went above and beyond, and we know Beau will definitely want to go back with them again!”
“Trish was amazing. We dropped our 5yr old Havanese pup on Christmas Eve and she had presents for him on Christmas Day! It was easy to stay in touch with Trish. Highly recommend! Thank you Trish.”

About: Hello! My name is Andie and I work at VCA South Shore Hospital in ER, ICU, Neurology and Internal Medicine as a technician assistant and have prior TA experience at Old Derby Animal Hospital. I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I previously went to the University of Arizona for 3 years studying animal sciences and transferred my junior year to return to the East Coast. I also have some experience with a handful of farm animals from my time at the UofA. Additionally some of my experience comes from working on home farms taking care of horses and alpacas; all of this meaning my knowledge of animals is extensive to give the best care for your furry friends! I have always had the passion for animal care and medicine which is why after graduating I will be continuing my schooling to be a CVT and hopefully someday a veterinarian. A few years back I had participated in boarding through Rover, but after a hiatus I decided to come back to continue with walks and drop in visits because even outside of my main job I love to be around animals! We have a small family dog, but other than that I have rescue retired racing greyhound, Moose, who has travelled far and wide with me. My pets also include many fish, a leopard gecko, chickens and ducks! All this being said, I would absolutely love the opportunity to be alongside your best friends and scratch the itch to spend as much time with animals as I can! I am available Tues-Fri after 4:00 and free Sat, Sun and Mon! I am currently working full time at VCA Animal Hospital where I can do drop in visits before and after work depending on location, Sat, Sun and Mon can be anytime. I can also do any walks after 4:00 Tues-Fri and anytime on weekends. I take care of your pets like they are my own. I think every one has their own needs and personality, there is no "one size fits all" for any animal. I try to learn your pet on an individual level!
About: I have taken care of cats since I got my first kittens at 5 years old. Neighbors and family members have also trusted me with care of their cats including feeding, medications, playtime, and litter maintenance. I personally still have two cats, one of which needs daily medication.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Currently in my house, we have 3 dogs and 2 cats that I help take care of. I have been on Rover for about 6 years. I am an elementary teacher and high school girls basketball coach. I am currently on summer break since I am an elementary teacher. This means that I have a lot of free time because I am not working anywhere else. I am a very active person, so I love playing with all dogs and taking them on nice, long walks. I have also been around dogs and cats my whole life, so I love spending time with all animals.
“Took our booking request so last minute (during the holidays no less) and did everything we asked and more. She came in to take care of our kitties while we weren't able to.”
“Rebecca super communicative and professional and it was clear our cats were well taken care of while we were away. We felt totally at ease knowing they were in such good hands ❤️”
About: As someone who has been a life long cat owner I am dedicated to providing exceptional cat care with a focus on love, attention, and playtime. Let me be your cat's favorite companion while you're away!
“Nicole has been the best sitter for both my dog and cat! She is reliable, communicative, and caring. I know my pets are in good hands with Nicole and would highly recommend her!”
“I trust her with my dog and two kitties - that says it all! I can see in all the photos she sends that they love to see her when she cares for them! She even made sure to clean up messes the kitties made on the rug while I was traveling. Her honest and timely communication is very appreciated. Highly recommend Madeline!”
About: I have had a cat since I was a very young child and I have been around many cats since then. I love cats and appreciate their beauty, intelligence, and delicacy. I have two years of animal shelter experience much of which was spent working with cats.
About: I absolutely love animals, especially dogs. I have been an animal lover and pet owner my whole life but have been a professional pet care specialist for 7+ years. I now work in an animal hospital but in the past I managed a doggy daycare for 2 years and worked for professional dog walking companies for a total of 4 years. I specialized in the hiking program but I can do it all when it comes to your fur babies. From hiking, walking, park trips, in home pet sitting, administering medication, work on reinforcing basic commands and even checking in on your feline friends! I currently work for an animal hospital but still have time to spoil your fur babies. I am available Saturday through Monday and most early mornings, afternoons and evenings throughout the rest of the week. I am based in Pembroke but open to traveling. My dog and cats live a very spoiled life and get treated like royalty and I will care for your pets the same way. I will ask you questions about their daily schedule so that I can replicate it to my best ability when they are in my care.

About: We have a large, very clean, and safe home with a big backyard. There are plenty of trails and sidewalks for walking around our house as well as a variety of parks nearby we can visit. I stay at home and will be available all day to supervise care for your dog(s). My three teenage kids will help provide care and are very responsible, loving, and diligent caretakers. Our own 2 small (4 lb) chihuahuas, Mocha & Lacey, are used to having other dogs around. When your dog(s) stay with us, you can be sure that they will be well loved, safe, and welcomed into the family as one of our own! We would be happy to keep you updated with pictures of your pet during his/her stay. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I currently stay at home and am available to care for your dog for most of the day. My husband also works from home quite a bit and helps as well. We have a large back yard but also love taking the dogs on walks through the nearby trails in the woods. Both my husband an I walk every day so there is plenty of opportunity for your dog to get out.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover who grew up begging for a dog. After college, I brought home my first dog—a golden retriever who was the center of my world. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of all kinds: high-energy, troublemakers, dogs with medical needs, seniors, and everything in between. I’m comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I truly enjoy getting to know what makes each dog unique. After meeting my husband, we added a rescue to our household and regularly help care for and babysit dogs for family and friends. After saying goodbye to my beloved Golden, our house has felt a little empty. While we’re not ready to add another full time dog, we love welcoming an extra companion to our home for short term stays! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve while you’re away. I am a mom of two young children and currently at home with them and our rescue dog. I said goodbye to my senior golden last year and have missed having that extra companion. I have plenty of space both indoors and outdoors, and lots of time to devote to your dog. I have a dog-safe, child-proof home. My yard is partially fenced, and I also have an electric fence available for dogs trained to use one (my dog does not use it). My house is located in a quiet, wonderful neighborhood with sidewalks and low-traffic roads—perfect for safe, enjoyable walks.
“Trish was an absolute delight! She was incredibly warm and caring and clearly gave our pup a lot of love and attention. We appreciated her communication and photos throughout the day. We’re looking forward to working with her next time we’re in the area!”
“Bonnie, our Black Lab, had a great first visit. The big backyard was perfect. Bonnie got to do a lot of running with Eileen's dogs. We were late picking up Bonnie and Eileen was very accommodating. Mike”
About: Fully insured for your peace of mind. Dog mom to my pup Zephyr. Over 25 years of hands on dog experience. Reliable dog lover treating every pup like family and every walk like an adventure. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog mom to my lab, Zephyr, my days are built around walks, exercise, and making sure he is happy and well cared for. I structure my schedule to provide consistent, reliable walks and visits, so each dog gets the attention, safety, and care they deserve. I do 3 walks a day, depending on your dogs needs and physical limitations. I also provide mental stimulation activities to balance out their energy. I will not be hosting another dog while your pup is in my care because they are my number 1 priority. I have 1 very friendly 5 year old Labrador that gets plenty of walks, treats, kisses and love. Your pup will be very welcome in our pack!
About: I grew up on a small farm and have always loved creatures great and small. I have always had pets and have been a caregiver for friend’s dogs for years. I am now home full time and welcome the opportunity to slather love on more critters 🩷 I am currently home full time so have all the time in the world to spend with the animals. In warm weather I can leave the back door open allowing dogs to come in and out as the please. I have a fenced yard and a sweet 6 year old plott hound (Mojo), many fish, an axolotl (Buggie), and a hamster (Donut). My husband and I have two boys aged 10 and 12 who love animals as much as I do.
“Jeremy & Rui were great! Needed last minute day care on a Holiday and they were able to take our Millie. She had other pup friends to play with and they were great with communication. Would stay with them again!”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and love spending time with them. I’ve cared for my own pets for years, including raising and training my current dog, who is now four years old. I’m experienced with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications if applicable, and I always treat animals with love and respect. While most of my experience is personal, I bring a reliable and caring approach to every pet as if they were my own! I work from home four days a week, and I am usually local on weekends, so my schedule is flexible. I’m home throughout the day and can provide potty breaks when needed and playtime during lunch hour and in the evenings. My schedule makes it easy to pop by during lunch or evenings to check in, feed, and give some love and attention as needed. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a labrador retriever who gets along with other animals and a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play. I keep a close eye on all pets, maintain their usual routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I prefer to host pets who know basic commands and can respect my dog and home.
About: I am a Licensed/Certified Boarder. I have passed inspections and carry a special permit per Massachusetts Law. My home has been thoroughly inspected both inside and outside by the Town Animal Control officer to ensure your pets are safe and secure when in my care :) I have been a big animal lover my whole life and being able to take care of and play with different animals is so much fun and makes my heart feel full:) I have also rescued many animals from squirrels to birds and have a special place in my heart for animals in need of help. I love to play and even help train dogs. Animals with special needs are more than welcome here and I would tend to their every need. IWe have just over 2 acres of land and a fenced in area with chickens who are fenced separate from pups. Your family member would be happy to be here:) I provide a true “Vacation” for your pets while you are away! I am equipped and ready to work with all dog types. I cannot board any dogs who are aggressive to other animals or people for safety to all. This is a full-time job for me and animals are a true passion of mine. If you would like pictures and videos of recent guests just ask and you shall receive :) If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I am caring for pets full time! We do not crate (unless asked by owner). Pets can feel like they are on vacation when you are on vacation!!! All pets we care for are treated as if they are members of our family. We offer a day of activities for your pet whether they like to play catch, lounge under trees, etc. We have access in and out of our house with minimal steps that is great for more senior dogs who have a hard time walking. You will not be disappointed if you trust in me and my family! ***When packing your pup(s) for their stay they really only need food, leash/collar/tags, favorite treats(I have some here but may pack your own), medications (if necessary), and your preferred care instructions (how much food they eat, medication instructions, etc.). You may pack bedding and a couple favorite toys if you think your pup will be more at home but I have found that none of the pups are interested in those things when they come here so not necessary if you don’t want to pack so much. I have many items such as bowls, toys, bedding, treats, sprinklers for hot days, etc. I do not crate unless asked by owner. All pups need to be up to date on vaccines and rabies. I will need to take a copy of them and keep them on file here:) I am boarding full time! Pets are NEVER left alone or outside alone. We are fenced in the back yard also for some leash less fun! Your pets are cared for like my own family:) I am strict to pet owners requests and do not share food or treats that don’t belong to each pet so no one gets sick. (You may send their treats if you like it will only be given to them). Can give medications if needed.

She took great care of Henry and sent me frequent updates and photos which put me at total ease. I highly recommend her and will definitely reach out next time I come to the Boston area!”
About: I've had my own golden retriever for 5 years now and have spent my life with and caring for other pets. My dog has enjoyed constant attention and love and exemplifies a gentle and playful attitude toward other pets. Though no backyard, we frequently go for neighborhood walks and to nearby dog parks. Our household also has plenty of toys for share that would keep your pet entertained and stimulated while you're away. I would also ensure that you're updated frequently on the status of your pet and be attentive to any preferences and/or accommodations you may have. I work 9-5 on the weekdays but have plenty of flexibility to ensure your pet is taken care of both inside and outside. I will spend time with and provide constant attention to your pet, with additional stimulation given by my own dog. I have a spacious, smoke-free apartment where my 5-year-old Golden Retriever enjoys roaming. Your dog would be walked on leash and taken out multiple times throughout the day for pee and play. My home is a safe environment with visibility to ensure your pet is in good hands.
“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: Hi! My name is Dessy, and I’m a passionate animal lover and experienced professional pet stylist who genuinely treats every pet like my own. I’ve worked hands-on with all breeds, sizes, and personalities — from tiny nervous pups to big energetic goofballs. Because of my grooming background, I’m extremely comfortable handling dogs who may be anxious, wiggly, shy, or need extra patience. I’m trained to read body language, keep pets calm, and make sure they feel safe and cared for at all times. I care for dogs whenever I can find the time. Even when not at work I’m looking to spend more time with pups. I’m looking to also volunteer at Kingston Animal Shelter. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh water, feed them according to instructions, and provide potty breaks and walks based on their normal schedule. I also give them plenty of attention, playtime, and reassurance while monitoring their behavior to ensure they are happy and safe.
“Nicole has walked my dog several times and has been wonderful! She took the time to ask about my dog’s needs/behaviors before our weekly walks started. She sends detailed reports after each walk, which I appreciate. She is very caring and responsible and I trust her to take good care of my dog. I highly recommend Nicole!”

“Kelsie was amazing! we felt completely at ease leaving Wells with her. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared for him like her own. Highly recommend”
“Roxy was a godsend! My dog Whitney loved her and was so comfortable in her lovely home. Whitney needed medications and assistance with a sore leg, which she professionally accommodated. It is hard to part from your beloved pets, but Roxy made this as stress free as possible.”
“Just picked our Sophie up from her third visit with Lora P. and she came through yet one more time! Sophie was happy to go there (no shakes on the way in like with kennels) and Sophie was happy and healthy when we returned a few days later. She will get to spend more time with Lora soon and we know she will have yet another wonderful experience!”
“Matthew & Jennifer were amazing hosts for our dog, Griffey. They provided numerous updates about his day. He came home happy and healthy. I can't recommend them highly enough.”
“I highly recommend Seonmin to anyone looking for a professional, communicative dog watcher. She watched my pup, Coconut, for 7 nights and was incredibly responsive to me and gave me daily updates. She is responsible and has a dog of her own you can tell she takes great care of. It also helps that her and her partner are at home full time to give your dog great love and care! I would highly recommend her.”
“Sarah and her family were wonderful with our dog, Rory. It was clear he was getting lots of love and snuggles while we were away. Sarah provided pictures during our trip. We would gladly use Sarah again in the future!”
“Stefanie was absolutely wonderful in taking care of our dog! She was so responsive in messaging and followed great instructions for giving medication, feeding, walks, etc. Stefanie provided great exercise for Finn and sent lots of pictures and updates during his stay! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Our dog Nugget was immediately comfortable with Alana when I dropped him off for the night and they seem to have bonded really well. Alana is prompt with communication and very friendly.”
“Janice did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Ginger who is older and has anxiety. I had never left Ginger with anyone except family so I was a little apprehensive leaving her with someone she wasn’t too familiar with. Janice took care of all her needs, including her medication, and gave her lots of love and attention. Ginger felt right at home. I highly recommend Janice!”
“Really nice people, they were both amazing with my dog, you could just feel their energy upon meeting them that they were both animal people. I would definitely highly recommend them and bring my dog back to them for another overnight stay. Thank you for taking great care of my dog.”
“Alysia’s service is top notch! Her family was so caring and treated my pup like family. Our pup came home content and he had so much fun. Great communication and updates. Thank you!!!”
“If I could give more stars, I would! Shatane and her family are truly wonderful people. They treated Ziggy and me with respect and showed Ziggy love and attention every day during his 3-day stay this week. I would definitely recommend Shatane—excellent communication, with plenty of updates, pictures, and videos.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place for Frankie to be while we were away.A fenced in back yard where she could run and play with other dogs.The pictures they sent gave us a great feeling while we away and missing her.Our nephew just got a puppy and we told him we would highly recommend Ben and Sarah.”
“Shannon watched our pup Bandit for a week. She sent many updates and pictures, kept bandit entertained, and treated him like her own family. He loved running around her yard and enjoyed his time. He had a great vacation. We couldn’t have found a better person and family to watch our pup. She will be first on the list if we need anyone in the future!!”
“Rene has a wonderful set up and we highly recommend him for overnight dog sitting service. Thanks to the pictures sent, Lucy appeared to feel right at home and loved playing with his dogs and other borders!”
“Shelby and her family were very welcoming and eased my mind right off the bat! I am always nervous about leaving my pup in someone’s care, but Shelby was sure to keep me updated with frequent texts and pictures letting me know JoJo was doing great. Though the yard is not fenced in she reassured me Jo would safe and she made sure he got plenty of walks in. I look forward to booking again with Shelby in the near future.”
