“Can’t begin to explain how amazing Liz and the rest of her family were with my two boys ❤️. I knew as soon as we met the boys were going to love her. Liz is very cheerful, loving and attentive. She did an amazing job at keeping me up to date and most importantly making sure my boys felt at home and safe. I received daily pictures which included dj and beans taking car rides, walks, sleeping and just hanging with the family. If you love your furry companions as much as I do, book with Liz, you won’t be disappointed ❤️”
“Christina was amazing! I booked last minute and she was eager to take care of Beru for the weekend. She sent lots of photo updates. Beru has some quirks and Christina was more than capable and happy to accommodate Beru’s personality. Would 100% book with her again!”
“Ilsa is a great dog sitter! She sent me tons of cute pics and videos of my dog during his stay. She lives in a great neighborhood with a yard which I know my dog loved. I would absolutely recommend her services and definitely book with her again!”
About: I have 2 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience working with anxious pets, ensuring they feel safe and at ease. I use positive reinforcement techniques and tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Your pup will be in loving, attentive hands! I have completed the Red Cross Pet First Aid course in order to be prepared for any events that may occur. I work a flexible, remote job so I am available to tend to your babies as needed! My daily schedule starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 10:30 p.m., but I'm flexible to your needs! I have a large, private porch with plenty of potty spots for your baby, as well as a park within a 5 minute walk if that is what your pet needs. My dog, Juniper, will be a great companion for yours!

“Betsy and her family created a welcoming environment that made it easy for our nervous dog to adjust. Betsy gave him all the care and attention he needed and was super responsive through our vacation. We will try to book again before we move.”
“Michelle & Michael are the ultimate pet sitters for my young dog, Ruby. She clearly receives an abundance of care, love and attention, as her sweet, expressive & energetic personality is in full effect, which only comes out when she is completely comfortable with people. I feel very lucky to have found them, and they are first on my list! Thank you, Michelle & Mike! :)”

“Lyn is incredibly experienced with seemingly all ages of dogs and was fantastic about keeping us updated on how Elly was doing. I will undoubtedly get in contact with Lyn again in the future.”
“Rachel took such good care of our dog Jax and provided plenty of updates and photographs. We will definitely ask her to watch Jax again and would highly recommend!”

“Guillermo took care of our dog Amos for nine days. He was an exceptional care provider. He went above and beyond taking Amos to the vet, giving his prescribed medication and even returning to the vet for a refill. Amos had plenty of walks. We received many pictures of Amos which my family really enjoyed. I would definitely re-book with Guillermo.”
“Rachel is an absolute life saver. I totally messed up the booking. (I tried to add a day, but when I did, the “extra” day then became the first day, so the whole booking shifted forward by a week. Make sure to double check your bookings in the app if you try to edit!) Anyway, I realized it the DAY OF. Rachel still made it work somehow. I’m not advocating anyone else doing this or anything, 😆 but just saying how incredibly grateful I am. Plus, she is absolutely wonderful with my dog. It’s clear my dog LOVES her and her son. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Ilya was so so amazing! He was very responsive and able to watch Lyla at the drop of a hat. I was assured that my dog was in great care and I had no worries for the whole weekend!”
“Andy did a great job caring for Wally! He was very communicative and sent lots of updates. Wally had lots of walks, playtime, and time spent relaxing—and came back home a very happy pup! I highly recommend Andy!”

“Patrick has been super friendly around us and our dog. He made sure we were able to meet up with our dog before agreeing on boarding with him. He kept us informed on our dog's well-being through out the week and sent photos or videos daily. All in all we would definitely choose Patrick again and we extend our warmest recommendations.”
“Barb is fantastic! She went above and beyond for our Lizzie girl. She is dependable, warm and welcoming! You will never have to worry when your furry companion is in her hands!”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Kitty again! We came home to find a very happy cat and everything was clean and tidy, and we loved the pictures of Kitty each day. Isabel is such a fantastic and reliable sitter. ✨”
“Cameron did a wonderful job looking after our cats while we were away on a long trip! He was communicative, flexible, and sent lots of pics. It is clear that Ferdi and Fiona enjoyed his company, and we would happily have him back to watch them anytime!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with cats and my attention to detail. I’ve cared for cats of all ages—from energetic kittens to senior cats needing medication and extra TLC. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and sticking to specific feeding or care routines. I take pride in keeping litter boxes clean and tidy because I know how important a fresh, sanitary space is for a cat’s comfort. Most importantly, I respect each cat’s unique personality and pace—whether they’re shy, playful, or a little bit of both.
“Nathan did a great job checking in on my cats while I was out of town. He communicated promptly and took very cute pictures of my cats. It was clear that they liked him and were happy to hang out with him. I would definitely have him cat sit for me again”
“Kayala was absolutely fantastic! They were very prompt and communicative. I was able to be at ease knowing that Maya was in such great hands. I will definitely book Kayala again!”
“This was our second time booking with Gabi and just like last time, she took such great care of our girls! She was so mindful about making them as comfortable as possible that when one of my cats was feeling a bit shy, Gabi gave her a treat to reintroduce herself. Love the thoughtful and carefulness that Gabi has when checking in on my cats. Will be my go-to sitter from now on!!”
“Elise took great care of Pepper and Colby. It was very easy to work with her, she was great in communicating and very responsive. Would recommend her and work with her again in future.”
“Alicia did a wonderful job caring for our shy, but sweet boy (cat) and our home. She was great about checking in, sending pics and communicating with me throughout the time she stayed. And she left our house spotless. I’d happily ask her to sit for us again and recommend her to others looking for a responsible, caring sitter for their pets.”
“Zoe was wonderful. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was there with my baby. She was patient when he was a little shy at first, yet gentle and persistent enough to help him come out to eat. Zoe sent several pictures, which really helped while I was missing Adso. I have another trip coming up, and I will definitely book Zoe again. It feels great knowing Adso will be in good hands.”

“Elizabeth and her kids took amazing care of Bean! Elizabeth was incredibly accommodating in setting up a space for Bean in her home and truly went above and beyond. She also sent various updates and photos throughout Bean's stay with her. Would definitely recommend!”
“Roman had a wonderful time! I loved the updates and the pictures throughout his stay! It definitely makes my fur mom heart a little more settled knowing the great care he is in and updates on what he’s doing during his time! Definitely came home nice and sleepy!!”
“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.”
“Michelle toot great care of my boy Roy. She kindly shared photos and frequent updates. Can’t believe how quickly Roy settled in and appeared to be at home! He will definitely be spending more time over at Michelle’s.”
“Rebecca was very friendly and communicative. She scheduled a meet and greet to introduce our dog to her space and asked insightful questions. She has great experience caring for larger dogs, and our dog came home relaxed and happy.”
“Gabriella was a great host for my pup Maya! It looks like my girl and Ceviche became instant best friends, and I’m so glad she had another puppy to play with! I’m home with a tired out puppy, thank you so much!”
About: I grew up with 2 Yorkies and bulldogs! I love dogs with my life. Dogs are like family to me. One of my Yorkies (they both live in my hometown) passed away recently due to her age, so I do know how to properly take care of dogs even when it comes to senior dogs or even puppies. I am always available to take care of dogs! I live with my boyfriend who works at home so he is available in case I’m not home. I go to law school so sometimes it does get busy but I’m always happy to take care of a baby (pet)! I take care of pets at my home by providing them a place for them to be able to sleep comfortably and play with their toys. I also think that talking to them calms them down and makes them more comfortable. Dogs are really smart and they do understand rules if you explain it to them!
About: ***NOTICE FOR NEW & REPEAT CLIENTS*** I will be abroad in Japan for research Sept 2026-August 2027, after which I’ll return to Boston and resume pet services. You’ll find these months blocked off on my calendar. Thank you for your support and patience. I look forward to coming back and seeing the fur babies!!! *** I’ve had dogs in the family since I was a child, and they’ve been all sizes, temperaments and with different needs. I’ve worked with multiple R+ and balanced trainers in the Boston area and actively use training techniques throughout the day to help dogs who are selective-reactive, fearful, shy and/or have separation anxiety. I’m happy to incorporate any trainings you’re working on with your pups while they’re in my care***I do not believe pet services should be financially inaccessible. If you are struggling financially and need assistance, please reach out. I am a graduate student, and spend no more than 3 hours teaching/working on campus, typically in the afternoon, but my office is only 10 minute walk away so I’m rarely gone for long. For pets who would do best with full time WFH, my schedule is flexible. The rest of the time I spend either at home or outdoors at parks or on hikes. My life truly revolves around dogs. Stay at home movie nights with lots of treats or hangouts at the dog parks—you name it! I now have a car, so my serviced area radius has increased for walking and checkin services! I do not offer boarding/stay services in the client’s home.
“Anna was so patient with our dog Bobby and took amazing care of him! When we picked him up he was calm and ready for a nap - perfect! We will definitely book with Anna again.”
“Sam was amazing with Benny! I appreciate all the photos and updates throughout the day! When I leave Benny with Sam, I know he’s in great hands and will have a great time with him and Alula!”
“Fernanda was great! It was our first time using Rover and she helped us navigate it. We felt at ease leaving our puppy Anto with her. She was very communicative and sent us pictures with updates. Drop-off and pick-up were easy. We will definitely book her again!”
“Sofia is a wonderful sitter! She's so responsive and absolutely so flexible. I drove in from Chicago and was very disorganised with my schedule and Sofia was so great and understanding. I was able to book her pretty much with a few day's notice since my original sitter had something come up and she was so quick to respond. Sam loved her and he had a wonderful time with her. He was exhausted when I picked him up. She even took him to the dog park, even though she has a fenced backyard! :) Her dog, Bandit, is a sweetheart and such a good boy. He and Sam got along really well. I definitely recommend Sofia! She's a wonderful doggy sitter!”
“Lexi took great care of Emmy during her daycare visit! She was very attentive to Emmy’s needs and made sure she felt comfortable and happy throughout the day. We appreciated all of the updates Lexi sent us during the visit!”
About: I’ve been doing drop-in visits for friends and family’s pets since I was 15. Never had a pet myself due to my parents’ allergies, so I love giving extra love and attention to other peoples’ furry friends. When I was a junior in high school I even built a local dog park for my Girl Scout Gold Award project, just to help local dogs have more fun letting out their energy. I’m happy to attend to your animals specific wants, like a snuggly or energetic pet, or one of those pets that has a little hidey hole to check in on. My work schedule is hybrid, so I can easily care for your pet while working. I’m always working from home Mondays and Fridays, and I can take on any other day of the week as well, as long as I have a few days notice. I’m happy to meet with your pet ahead of time to let them get to know me while you’re home. I’m used to building trust slowly over time with animals.

“Loved meeting William! He was so understanding about all the things we try to reinforce with our pup and followed everything we suggested. Pebbles had a lot of fun with him, and he managed her energy really well. He also gave me such detailed updates and photos! Would definitely recommend :)”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years through pet sitting for family and friends, and I also volunteered with a local animal shelter, where I took dogs on “doggy day trips” for walks and time outside the shelter. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and always aim to meet each dog where they are! I have a flexible work-from-home schedule, which allows me to offer reliable weekday care including morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, and overnight stays when needed. I focus on calm, consistent care that helps dogs feel safe and relaxed while keeping their routine in place. Outside of pet care, I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors through walking, hiking, and fitness classes! I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and provide regular updates so you always know how your dog is doing. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine since I work from home with a flexible schedule. This allows me to reliably offer morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care during the weekdays, with some additional flexibility on weekends depending on availability. I’m looking to provide steady, dependable care that feels consistent and low-stress for both pets and their owners, rather than occasional or unpredictable bookings. I provide pet care in clients’ homes, focusing on keeping each pet comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. I follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any specific household guidelines. For dogs, I prioritize calm, structured walks with safe leash handling, along with attention, play, and bathroom breaks based on their usual routine. For cats, I provide quiet, respectful care including feeding, litter box cleaning, fresh water, and companionship based on each cat’s comfort level. I also make sure the home is secure while I’m there and send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well!
“I had a great experience with Hannah as a dog walker! She communicated promptly to coordinate everything and took my puppy Luna's schedule into consideration, which I really appreciated. She arrived right on time, took Luna on a nice walk, and sent lots of pictures throughout. Luna looked so happy and comfortable in every photo. It was clear she was in great hands, and I’d happily book with Hannah again!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep compassion, patience, and experience with dogs who need extra attention—especially those with anxiety or special routines. I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets who struggle with separation anxiety. My own dog, Sasha, has anxiety, so I understand the importance of gentle care, consistency, and emotional support. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while you’re away. Whether your pup needs long walks, slow introductions, or just a cozy lap to nap on—I’ve got you covered! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have Mondays and Tuesdays off, which gives me plenty of time for daytime walks and drop-ins. On other days, I’m able to fit in visits between school and work—and I don’t mind doing late-night drop-ins if your pet needs evening attention. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so I’m happy to make it a priority in my schedule. I’m dependable, flexible, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I only offer pet care in the client’s home because I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medication. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to provide reliable, stress-free care that gives both you and your pet peace of mind.
“Hi thank you for taking him out - I know he is difficult in the rain so no worries at all if he was being stubborn. I will be home in a few hours so I’ll let him out soon. Fingers crossed the rain stops!”
“We were happy that Elizabeth could help us out with our dog for a few walks during a busy weekend. She seemed very comfortable and confident with our dog who isn't always the easiest to walk. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all sizes, ages, and dispositions. I’ll take the time to meet your prt where they are and give them the essential care, play, exercise and love they need to have a successful day! For drop-ins I’m available mornings and evening during the week and all day on the weekends. I’m available to walk dogs any time on the weekends. I promise to respect your space and maintain a clean and pet friendly environment when caring for your pet in your home. You can count on me.
“Cameron is punctual and communicates about his visits before arrival, during and after. I will definitely contact him again. My dog is very anxious and he didn’t push her to walk, just kept her company as we discussed.”
“Ilgin is a true professional and provides such top-notch care for our pup! She is a great communicator and we love working with her. Highly recommend her services!”
“Sean has been extremely reliable, communicative, and trustworthy as our weekly dog walker. Our dog loves playing at the park with him. He has made good decisions about when to let our dog off-leash and helps with interactions with other dogs. He also goes the extra mile to wipe my dogs paws after muddy walks!”
About: I have tried to live life around as many animals as possible. Grew up with dogs and cats and now am a proud cat dad. I pride myself on being punctual, responsible, and caring. I have taken care of dogs for family and friends for years. Being a Rover customer has encouraged me to be the best possible sitter, walker, visitor that I could be. I respect people's boundaries and animal's boundaries as well. I would prefer to meet you and your pet before we confirm sitting or visits just to make sure everyone is comfortable(especially your pets!). I am currently working part time and have lots of available time to walk, sit, and visit your cats or dogs. I can do multiple visits per days in Somerville if need be. I would prefer to take time to meet you and your pets before booking. I fully understand the concerns of having people in your home and treat spaces like I would want my home treated. I'm happy to clean litter boxes per directions and would always put things (food, leashes, toys, etc..) back in their place as directed. if you were to be out of town and asked me to retrieve mail, monitor lights and other utilities I would do that to the best of my abilities as well. As someone who has had Rover sitters come visit my cat Pepper I appreciate that extra effort that many of them have put forth. I would also be happy to communicate all visits through the app or phones with pictures and quick updates.
About: I've been volunteering regularly for a local cat rescue for over 7 years and pet sitting for friends for years with the love and attention I share with my own pets. I am most experienced with cats and rabbits, but I do also regularly walk my friend's dog. Through the cat rescue, I've worked with a wide variety of cat personalities, from cuddly to spicy, and I'm happy to care for a diversity of critters. I also have experience with giving cats and rabbits medication through my experience at the cat resuce and as a pet mom myself. I typically work remotely from home 4 days a week. My job is fairly flexible, so I can flex my time a bit depending on the best time to visit your pet! I'll always defer to what you are most comfortable with when it comes to your pet. I'll make note of your specific requests and asks to best care for your critters.
“Absolutely loved having Lynne as our dog walker! She was awesome - super friendly and had great communication throughout. She walked our dog, Liliboo, for 3 days and instantly became his new best friend. Lynne kept me updated every day with messages, notes, and adorable pics that made me smile. I could tell Liliboo absolutely adored her - he was so happy and comfortable. Can’t wait to book her again! Highly recommend!”

“Our pup was happy in every picture & very excited but quickly calm when she got home, which to me says that she was happy to be home, but didn’t feel nervous at Aurora’s home!
