Nancy had a great set up at the house with a fenced in back yard and allowed our dog to sleep anywhere her wanted even in the bed with the other dogs. She sent daily pictures and updates which were nice to see. I would recommend her to take care of your dog.”

“Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our older aged GSD. Her retriever got along great with our dog and we were very pleased with the level of care provided for our pup when it came to food accommodations (our pup gets anxious when we leave and struggles to eat sometimes). Needless to say, Sarah went above and beyond and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the extraordinary care for our dog as well as all of the communication and photos she provided during the stay. Lastly, Sarah was quite flexible and accommodating with meet and greets, drop off times and pickup times. 10/10 and highly recommend! Thank you Sarah!”

“Cathy and family were awesome. The meet and great was easy and comfortable, and Cathy was extremely responsive. Our trip was extended and they happily kept our dog for an extra night. We will absolutely be working with Cathy again! Highly recommended.”

“Thanks so much! I didn’t worry about Jack at all! I knew he was in good hands. Again I apologize for the disarray of my apartment. I am sick (nothing contagious) and some days are better than others. Thanks for all you did! Jack’s not even yelling at me like he does when I first get home.😎😂”

“Lucy was so great with my two cats - based on all the photos and videos she sent me, my boys had a great time with her and enjoyed the attention she shared with them. Her detailed daily reports were thorough and it truly gave me a peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely hire Lucy again - I’m sure my cats would be happy to see her again too”

“It was comforting to me to have Jacquie take care of my cat Fiona while I was out of state and so far away. She did an excellent job of keeping me up to date with notes and pics and my cat just loved her. She wasn't shy to meet Jacquie and was very calm and relaxed when I got home. I am very pleased with my first experience with Jacquie and Rover.”

“Caitlyn was great! Very responsive and sent plenty of updates while we were gone, and I can tell my kitties were well taken care of. I have one shy baby that hides when new people come by and Caitlyn made sure to lay eyes on her too. Leo, my outgoing baby was clearly very happy to receive all the love, pets, and playtime based on photos! Highly recommend booking Caitlyn!”

“Caroline was great while watching our kitties while we were on vacation. I could truly relax and enjoy myself as I knew they were in good hands with Caroline. She sent picture updates throughout the week which always put a smile on my face. She even vacuumed and washed the sheets before we got home—Completely unexpected but very much appreciated!! We will definitely be using Caroline’s services when we go out of town next.”

“Elaine is absolutely great! she clearly loves dogs and has been very caring and loveful with my dog when taking care of her. She sent me pictures during the day, has always been very responsive to my messages, and even made us the favor to come to pick her up from home when we couldn't drop her off. I would absolutely recommend her as one of the best dog sitters in the Metrowest area!”

“Nancy has been a fantastic caregiver for my dog! Her communication is thorough, she sends me pictures throughout the day, and she has been really wonderful about all of my pet’s medical needs. She feels like a real partner! A+ for Nancy!”

“Normally, when we pick Yoda from a day care or boarding he will express his unhappiness by barking at us trying to tell us he didn’t like it there. But when we picked him up from your place he was all happy and no barks very calm, it tells us he had a good time with you. Thank you for taking good care of him.”


“Victoria and her family are the sweetest and were willing to fit us in last minute. Highly recommend anyone to book them for future dog sitting. We can't wait to come back and let our Lilly spend more time the next go around. 💜”

“Maeve took excellent care of our puppy, Barnaby. It was his first time with a sitter, and first time meeting another dog, and Maeve made it so easy. She communicated with me promptly, sent photos, and Barnaby loved being with her. 100% recommend.”

“Meli took such great care of my fur baby! From the moment I was in touch with Meli, I felt safe and excited about the opportunity to have Ollie spend the day with her and her pup Nina. She was warm and assuring, and very quick to respond to messages! When I met Meli in person to drop Ollie off, I was happy to find such a friendly and kind person in real life, too! She sent me photos and updates throughout the 6 hours that Ollie was with her for “day care” (without me even needing to ask!) and I could tell he was having fun and being taken care of so well! I would absolutely recommend Meli and would love to have Ollie stay with her again if we need a sitter in Bloomington. Thanks Meli! ?”
“Kathy was great with Comet. She sent lots of pictures and gave him lots of treats and love. And Franklin was an excellent host too. Kathy was very communicative and asked lots of questions before we met, making us feel safe leaving Comet there. We would absolutely use her again!”

“Our dog has a great time with Lee! We were looking for a slower paced daycare option as she gets older (daycare facilities tend to be too overwhelming for her), so Lee and his dog Sharif have been a great alternative for keeping her entertained, but not completely overwhelmed / exhausted.”

“I could not be happier with Maria and Caesar. My dog, Gary, can be a nervous little guy but by day 2, he was already happy to see Caesar at drop off and Caesar was excited to see him too! Maria sends me pictures and updates every day Gary is with them which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. They’ve been really flexible with drop off and pick up times and have even accepted last minute bookings. I can’t say enough good things about Maria and Caesar and if Gary could talk, I’m sure he would say the same.”

“Vista had so much fun during daycare with Junho and Boki! Junho was very communicative of how Vista was doing, making sure she had everything she needed to enjoy her days, from her food, to play and outside time. It is clear that he truly loves dogs and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone with a kind heart to care for their pet.”

“Fantastic experience with Megan. Felt completely comfortable leaving Teddy in her care. Lots of communication and sweet pictures throughout the stay. Teddy was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. 100% recommend!”

“Here’s a warm, genuine 5-star review you could leave: We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Lingwen! She took exceptional care of Max and treated him like he was part of her own family. Throughout his stay, she kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from every update that she genuinely cared about his happiness, comfort, and well-being. Max came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. We truly appreciated her kindness, attention to detail, and the personal touch she brought to every aspect of his care. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated to caring for their pet. Thank you so much, Lingwen! 🐾❤️”

“Joanne is so nice, extremely accommodating and takes great care of the dogs! I just started bringing my 1.5yr puppy to her and she is amazing with him, sends me pics and videos of all the fun he is having while he’s there …he truly LOVES going to Joanne for Doggy daycare! I HIGHLY highly recommend her!!!”

“Indrajeet accepted our reservation at the last minute, which ended up being wonderful luck for us. What a kind and caring dog sitter. Monk and LouLou were immediately at ease. Fear not and book now. A wonderful experience!”

“Strudel had a great time with tons of space to run and play and two other friendly dogs to play with. Souvik and Meghan were attentive, answered all of our questions immediately, and sent periodic updates of Strudel's adventures playing with the other pups and on walks.”

“I think our puppy Lucy officially found her second home with Dawn and her family! Knowing we needed a sitter before even bringing our puppy home, I turned to Rover and found Dawn—and I’m so glad I did. She went above and beyond from the start, even coming over with her kids to meet Lucy beforehand. She’s truly salt of the earth, and I immediately felt at ease the moment I met her. As first-time dog parents, we had plenty of questions and requests, and Dawn was so accommodating, evening keeping us updated with the sweetest photos. I loved that on our first daycare service Lucy got to socialize with her kids and even play with another dog while she was there. On top of that, my husband has a difficult work schedule, and Dawn was incredibly flexible, which made everything so much easier. Watching a hyper puppy is no small task, but Dawn handled it with such care and patience. We are so grateful to have Dawn and her family in out circle!”

“Alexandra was great! She responded quickly for availability and kept me updated frequently. Zeus loved her as well and he can be tricky sometimes! I would definitely book a walk with her again.”

“Ivan is an excellent dog sitter. He obviously loves dogs and he was attentive, calm, and thoughtful in his care. This was my first time using a dog sitter for taking my dog for walks, and I couldn't have gotten luckier in choosing Ivan to take my dog to the park and care obout my pet. Ivan takes the responsibility seriously and understands my dog behavior rather than treating it as a checklist. My dog usually has the anxieties. Ivan found the way to calm my dog and communicate with wonderful care. After couple walks withIvan my dog is very excited, waiting for Ivan to come and go to the park. Ivan isd professional, reliable, and easy to communicate with throughout. I felt confident leaving my dog in his care and would not hesitate to book Ivan again. I am highly recommend Ivan service.”

“Lucy was amazing! We used Lucy to walk our dog midday when our friend was unable to come let her out during a work trip. Lucy and River had so much fun! Lucy was attentive, had great communication, and was on time every day. We will definitely use Lucy again! Thanks again Lucy! :)”

“Ben has been taking excellent care of my puppy Dexter. He is only 9 weeks old and has a crazy amount of energy. He has been going in 2 times a day which is a lot! He always quickly responds when I reach out to him. I love the pics he sends because Dexter looks super happy. Thank you Ben!”

“As a first responder, I put many families above my own and thanks to Lori, she puts my mind at ease when taking care of my dog Tito. She is dependable, kind, caring, reliable, and devoted to providing a safe environment for Tito. In addition to taking Tito for walks, the pictures and videos I receive throughout the day of Tito, lights up my day. I would recommend Lori to anyone looking for a honest and hardworking dog sitter.

The most important thing for an animal is to feel safe while it's owners are away. I am here to follow any routines that your pet already has to maintain a sense of security and calm.
“Louca worked wonders for us and our super reactive miniature dachshund. His patience, knowledge, and professional and positive attitude were a huge relief after searching for and failing to find someone to look after our dog when we were away for short periods. Louca has given us so much hope for our little puppy’s future and we look forward to working with him again! Thank you Louca !!”

“Chelsea was great communicating and sharing updates. Our poodle was initially shy, and she was very patient and caring until he got comfortable. We’ll definitely have her check on and walk our dog again. Highly recommend her.”

I also have plenty of experience walking dogs of all sizes—from tiny lap pups to large, energetic breeds—always focusing on their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time as a Veterinary Assistant, which gives me hands-on experience with animal care and handling in a clinical setting. I’m also a student enrolled in an online Veterinary Technology program, so I’m always learning and expanding my knowledge about animal health and behavior. Because of my flexible schedule, I have availability on some weekdays and weekends for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. This allows me to combine my passion for animals with my professional training while giving pets the love and attention they deserve when their families can’t be there. Whenever I’m in a home with pets, I make it a priority to tune into their needs, read their body language, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Every pet has their own personality—some love long walks and playtime, while others just want cuddles and belly rubs. If your pet is the snuggly type, I’m always happy to curl up with them and give all the love, scratches, and attention they need!
