“Judy was awesome with my dog, Cody! Her upbeat personality and love of dogs was so evident- and my dog really enjoyed her yard- he kept running in circles! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay- I definitely hope to book with Judy again!”
“Was very communicative and great with my dog. Took blue on multiple runs and hour long walks, which really helps her when she’s feeling anxious away from home. Would definitely recommend.”
“Yingying took care of my dog really well for the week. My dog Nia has separation anxiety and yingying let her sleep in the bedroom to keep her calm. We really appreciate it.”
“Angelina went above and beyond every single day, sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me smile and reassured us that everything was going smoothly. Coming home, I could tell my dog had been not only well taken care of but genuinely loved. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Thank you, Angelina!”
“Kourtney was very communicative and happy to take our dogs for the night with only a couple weeks of notice. Our dogs can be a handful, but she had no problem at all with them. I would recommend Kourtney to anyone looking for a Rover for an overnight stay, even if your dog(s) can be tricky!”
“Jessica and her family were amazing caretakers for our 6 month-old Golden Retriever, Ollie! During his stay, Jessica sent me continual updates, photos and videos of Ollie enjoying walks, playing with her own dogs, watching Sunday football, and having the best time! I would highly recommend Jessica and look forward to Ollie staying with her again soon!!”
“Excellent experience. Sara seemed professional, friendly, and very on top of things. She stayed in close touch about our little guy, and Kiwi seemed in good spirits both during his visit and after. I'd also specifically flag her location as a bonus—the house has a good yard and it's on a small, low-traffic side street, which always makes me feel better.”
About: I've owned and cared for animals since high school. In addition to dogs and cats, I've owned horses since I was 16. I have been\am a foster parent for the Animal Rescue League of Boston since 2020. I'm a former puppy foster for service dogs and participated with early puppy training. I have carried those skills over to training other foster puppies and my personal dog. I have a medical background (EMT) and my daughter is a Vet Tech so I am very comfortable working with animals with medical needs and will follow any required medical plan. In addition to dogs and cats, I'd love to meet\care for your backyard farm animals; horses, pot-bellied pigs, chickens, goats, sheep, etc. I have experience with some of these animals through ownership and fostering opportunities. I'm open to meeting and learning about new friends. We currently have 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 2 horses in our home. All our animals are our babies and I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'm currently unemployed so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I'm available for petsitting any day of the week and can work around any personal appointments. Boarding in my home is restricted to cats or other small animals. Puppies (under 1 year) may be accomodated, no adult dogs. For cats; we have a dedicated "cat room" to keep your pet separated from our pets. The room has a screen door so they don't feel locked away and can be part of our household while remaining safe. I will follow your pet care plan while in your home. For Puppies; all dogs are fed separately to avoid food aggression situations. All puppies will be crated for meals and sleeping overnight. If your puppy is not crate trained, I will work with them to ensure they are comfortable and not afraid. I can support your potty training schedule to maintain consistency.
About: I've had numerous variety of pets my whole life, Worked in pet retail for a time, and genuinely feel I understand animals more than people sometimes. Currently I'm between more traditional 9-5 employment, so I have the time and space to give the care needed for the little (or big) ones. I am open to discussing the individual needs of every client, but the basics of walking, feeding, just plain old attention are well within my capacity. Happy to help facilitate any training that is being done as well.

So this 3rd time was the first opportunity I had Kate pet sit the same animals. I knew everything I needed to know this time around when she showed to my home to get the keys. My cats heard her talking to me, and they RAN TO SEE HER! They were so very excited to see her. In that moment I knew they were in the best hands.”
“Blaise was great with our cat, Beefaroni. Blaise was always on time, stayed for the whole 30 minutes and gave us cute pictures and nice updates. We felt very secure leaving Beefy with Blaise and knew he was in good hands. So glad we got to work with him and that he took such good care of our special boy. We would happily book again.”

About: I have been a lover and caretaker for animals since I was young. I foster puppy’s often and love it. Having the opportunity to train and prep them to find their forever homes is so special to me. From potty training, to obedience training and everything in between as a start to giving them their best lives! Through Fostering, I have learned how to connect with dogs on a different level. I would love to have the opportunity to walk, connect and take care of your animals as needed. I work part time and I have plenty of time to do drop ins or take your pups on a nice walk. Around the neighborhood or a few miles in the woods. What ever matches their energy. I treat every animal I care for like they are my own, keeping them safe and loved while they are in my care. ❤️ ❤️

About: I’ve always loved spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. As a medical student currently between clinical rotations, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pet. Whether your cat needs a visit for meals and litter box care, some playtime and attention, or simply a little company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I grew up with cats and dogs in the family, and I’ve learned so much growing up alongside my tabby cat Joy. These experiences have taught me to be attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether they want lots of attention and playtime or prefer a little space and a quiet companion.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our cat received from Ann! She was wonderful about spending quality time with her, making sure she got plenty of play and attention while we were away. It’s clear our cat was well looked after and content. We highly recommend Ann’s services and will definitely book again!”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: My journey with animals did not start as a job. It began when I was 10 years old and welcomed my first cat into my life. Since then, animals have always been part of my world. I also grew up with a beloved Shih Tzu who was part of our family for 16 wonderful years and taught me what patient, devoted, long-term care truly looks like. Over the years, I have gained hands-on pet-sitting experience with many different animals and breeds, from energetic Golden Retrievers to Maine Coons, playful kittens, and small companion dogs. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, comfort level, and needs. I live with my husband in a two-floor apartment with hardwood floors and no carpets. I am happy to lift and carry pets on the stairs when needed, as long as they are comfortable being picked up. No matter the age, breed, or temperament, your pet will be treated with patience, attention, and care, just like part of the family. Pet care fits into my routine really easily because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give all the needed attention to your pet throughout the day. That means plenty of walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and just being around so they feel cared for and not left alone for too long. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and cats, keeping them active, entertained, and comfortable, and making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I live with my husband in a two-floor condo with its own backyard, and while it isn’t fenced, I’m very mindful of safety and always keep dogs secure when they're outside. The area around us has plenty of green space, which makes walks much more enjoyable and gives dogs lots of room to explore, sniff, and play.
“My pup, Beau enjoyed his time with Victoria and her two dogs a lot; he was very happy when I picked him up and will look forward to spending much more time with Victoria and her lovely home with a fenced-in yard.”
“Tracy was such a good sitter for our dog! She had great communication and was very friendly and accommodating to our schedule. She provided plenty of photos and updates as well. We’ll definitely book her again if we need a sitter!”
About: My love for pets started 13 years ago when I got my first Samoyed during my freshman year of college. The following year, I welcomed a Husky into my apartment. After graduating, I became a cat owner as well and have cared for three cats over the years. Having lived with both dogs and cats for so long, I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m home most of the day aside from going to the gym. This gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and spend time with your pets throughout the day. I have a spacious home with a large yard where dogs have plenty of room to relax and play. Depending on your dog’s preferences and routine, they can spend most of their time comfortably indoors or enjoy more time outside in the yard. I’ll always follow your care instructions and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
“Some people just have that natural rapport with animals and Alexis is definitely one of them! My recently adopted husky has been struggling with separation anxiety and Alexis made her feel right at home. By the time I picked Bella up, she had gone on THREE walks and I had so many photos to enjoy! I simply cannot recommend Alexis’s conscientious care enough, and the next time Bella needs daytime care I will be coming back with no hesitation. Thank you! It couldn’t have been better!”
About: I've cared for both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, litter care. and administering basic medications. I'm very attentive to routines and will always follow your instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free. I’ve cared for pets for friends, family and neighbors and I understand how important it is to have someone reliable. I’ll make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. And I’ll keep you updated while you’re away. I care for pets daily and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment. I have a flexible schedule and always try to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I also spend time playing with them and making sure they stay active and engaged. I currently have a cat and two Shepherd mix, so I'm very familiar with different energy levels and personalities. I always prioritize safety, follow instructions closely, and make sure pets are in a calm, secure environment where they feel comfortable. I work as a Chinese teacher just every Sunday afternoon. So I have plenty time to take care of your pets. I’m available all weekday. I have a dance yard and can provide big wonderful place for pets to play and relax. So I prefer care for pets in my home.
“Vicky and her family were wonderful with Athena! She got lots of love and attention, and I received updates throughout. She came home happy and content. I would definitely use them again.”
“Very happy with our first day of care by Anastasia. Scrapper seemed very comfortable almost immediately and happy afterwards. We think he will be pleased to stay again!”

“Initially before my Scottie Dog’s daycare, we did a “Meet and Greet”, which gave Jack an opportunity to interact with Kavita’s dog, Toby. Toby was very welcoming to another dog to share his spacious fenced in backyard. The next day, I dropped off Jack, who was eager to meet his new dog friend, Toby. During the day, Kavita sent me a photo, and video of Jack’s outside activity. It was very reassuring to know that my pet was doing just fine interacting with the other dogs.”

From one meet and greet my dog was comfortable with Matt & was friendly right away! Matt has been consistent and is extremely reliable & follows instructions! He makes sure remy is exhausted by the time he’s done and he also makes sure to give her her water breaks while on walks! I’m definitely sticking with Mat as a dog sitter. 🫶🏼 thank you for being there for my sweet girl !”

About: I have spent my entire life around animals so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I grew up in a household with over 40 animals, including dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I have spent years working in a small locally owned pet store in my home town taking care of exotics, before moving into kennel work at a vet’s office. I have experience in giving medications to dogs and cats in different methods, and monitoring their health afterwards. My primary role was offering our boarding pets the comfort of a home away from home. I’m a reptile dad every day, taking care of my own snake and bearded dragon babies. I’m currently home every day with time and love to give to other pets and their people who need an extra hand. I have a big room with a comfy bed that they can lay on in a nice couch that we can sit and watch shows on. I also have a fenced in yard outback that I can take them in to play, but I have a spacious cemetery up and across the street that is great for leash walks as well. I also have various toys and litter boxes as well.

Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I work at a high school, and my schedule allows me flexibility in the afternoons and full days in the summer months.

I’m able to consistently fit pet visits into my routine and provide reliable care throughout the week. I provide reliable, safe, and attentive care for pets in my client’s home. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any special needs or medications. I take time to build trust with each pet, ensuring they feel comfortable, calm, and secure while their owner is away. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care so both pets and owners feel at ease.
About: We are a trio (Riven, Matt, Jason) that have mostly work from home schedules. We have individual Rover verified profiles, and this one is Rivens. I have lived with cats, dogs, and animals of all sorts my whole life. After growing up on a farm and being a founding member of the local 4H Club, my love for animals continued to fostering through rescues, volunteering, and my own pets such as my now passed 17 year cat named Moya, whom I had had since she was a few months old. We around a lot of dogs over the course of the week, so we are unable to on any dogs that will not do well with others for more than an over night. If you have feline family, I am happy to play with crinkle balls, laser pointers, or be a lap as needed. For boarding, my Matt and Jason (also on Rover) and myself are home 95% of the day and can usually accommodate most pick up or drop off time, frequent potty breaks, and walks. For drop in visits we are avaliable to work in the Shirely and immediately surounding area. We have some flexibility with the schedule that we can work out if you're interested! We offer lots of human and other dog socialization in our home. We have people and dogs visitors in home as well as on walks to parks and rivers.
About: I have owned a cat and a dog. I watch or check in on my friends' and family's pets when they are away from vacation. I WFH fairly regularly so check-ins are really easy. House sitting is doable, but would need to coordinate times as i have some activities with my kid. Animals are all about routine and I don't like to rock the boat. However you take care of your pets is how i want to provide for them.
About: My love for pets started 13 years ago when I got my first Samoyed during my freshman year of college. The following year, I welcomed a Husky into my apartment. After graduating, I became a cat owner as well and have cared for three cats over the years. Having lived with both dogs and cats for so long, I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m home most of the day aside from going to the gym. This gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and spend time with your pets throughout the day. I have a spacious home with a large yard where dogs have plenty of room to relax and play. Depending on your dog’s preferences and routine, they can spend most of their time comfortably indoors or enjoy more time outside in the yard. I’ll always follow your care instructions and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.

“Excellent experience. Sara seemed professional, friendly, and very on top of things. She stayed in close touch about our little guy, and Kiwi seemed in good spirits both during his visit and after. I'd also specifically flag her location as a bonus—the house has a good yard and it's on a small, low-traffic side street, which always makes me feel better.”
About: I've had numerous variety of pets my whole life, Worked in pet retail for a time, and genuinely feel I understand animals more than people sometimes. Currently I'm between more traditional 9-5 employment, so I have the time and space to give the care needed for the little (or big) ones. I am open to discussing the individual needs of every client, but the basics of walking, feeding, just plain old attention are well within my capacity. Happy to help facilitate any training that is being done as well.

Bridget was a prompt and clear communicator, and her attentiveness to our dog’s needs was genuinely appreciated. We would be delighted to work with her again!”
“Adonis was with Julie for a 2 week stay and had a blast! He quickly settled into her house and almost immediately took ownership of protecting her from all squirrels and other animals outside the house. He loves to play and Julie was awesome about sending us pictures of his stay with her. She was great with his food and even went the extra mile to feed him alternate food when he was not eating one day. Adonis bonded with Julie and we would love to have him stay with her again!”
“I recommend her; she's very communicative and loving, and that's how she was with Tonka. She kept me updated throughout his stay, letting me know how Tonka was doing and sharing photos. I always knew how he was doing, and she always answered my messages.”
“This was our puppy Clover’s first night away from home since we got her, and we are super glad she was with Briana! Briana has a great dog set up at her home, it was like summer camp for dogs. She was a fast communicator and kept us updated with funny pictures of Clover throughout her stay. She came home tired from all her playing! We would definitely recommend Briana and Clover can’t wait to see her again :)”
