“Sienna, James, their family, and their sweet pup Sully were absolutely amazing with our little Parker! They treated him just like one of their own and made me feel completely at ease while he was in their care. Sienna sent me pictures all the time so I could see how well my baby was doing, which meant so much to me. It’s clear they truly love animals and go above and beyond to make them feel at home. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving pet care. We’ll definitely be using them again! 💕🐾”
“Laetitia was absolutely amazing!!!!! Our dog had the best time and we loved all of the updates and pictures we received. We are so grateful to have found such an amazing caretaker for our sweet doggy when we are away!”
“John and Alexis were excellent Rover hosts. They were very responsive and communicative both before and during Maddie’s stay with them, and they took lots of pictures of her. Maddie was happy when we went to pick her up. We appreciate their willingness to take Maddie in as we were in town for a few days and live in another state.”
“Joshua was great, he walked our pit and sent us updates with pictures. We have another dog who will likely board with Joshua the next time we do a weekend travel trip.”
“Rachel always takes special care of my dog. She sends updates and pictures. When my dog was injured she took special care with his bandages and kept me updated constantly. I know Scout is in good hands!”
“Marie and her family have become family to us and especially our Howard. I feel comfortable to enjoy vacation knowing how happy and well cared for our furry baby is while we’re away. Thank you so much for being the wonderful caring person you are!! ❤️”
“Renee was so great with my little ones Goten and Gucci. They have never spent time with anybody else. This is the first time they stayed the night at someone else’s house. They stayed with Renee for 4 days and three nights. They had a great time. She sent pics and videos of them which made me so happy. They warmed up to her very beautifully. Thank you so much,”
About: I have had many animals in the past few years of all kinds. (Dogs, cats, snakes, guinea pigs, fish, etc) I love animals so much and would love to watch your pets when you are in need of someone! Pet care is something I am very used to in my routine since I have always had pets of my own, so it’s a normal daily routine for me, no problem! I make sure to walk dogs daily, clean up any accidents or messes immediately, separate dogs during feeding times if necessary, always let dogs outside immediately when they alert me that they need to go etc.
“Katie and David were very accommodating with two last minute changes to our booking! They provided updates and photos the entire time I was gone. I will definitely use them next time a sitter is needed and recommend you to book with them.”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog ! He is 14 months and still quite the puppy. Tracy and her family were amazing and I looked forward to the fun pictures she sent. I know Jeter had a fun time ! So very happy with everything !”
About: Hi, I'm Stefania! I share my home with two amazing pups-a 13-year-old Miniature Poodle and a 9-month-old Australian Cattle Dog rescue-so I understand the full range of dog personalities, from calm seniors to energetic puppies. Over the years, I've cared for dogs both big and small, with different temperaments and needs. I trained my poodle myself, and I'm currently training my cattle dog, so I know the patience and consistency it takes to help dogs thrive. My poodle also has pancreatitis, which has taught me the importance of sticking to special diets and administering medications with care. I'm very active and love getting outside with dogs for walks, runs, hikes, and even bike rides! Whether your pet enjoys burning off energy or just needs some snuggles and gentle care, I'll make sure they feel loved, safe, and happy. You can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and communicative-I'll treat your furry family member as if they were my own and keep you updated along the way. I'd love to meet your pet and give them the best care possible! Caring for pets is already a big part of my daily life. I start most mornings with walks or playtime with my own dogs, so adding extra furry friends into my routine feels natural. I'm available early in the morning and on weekends, which makes it easy for me to help with walks, drop-ins, or longer visits when you need them most. Because I'm active and love being outside, spending time with pets fits seamlessly into how I already live my life. Whether it's starting the day with some exercise, giving mid-day potty breaks, or making sure pets get attention and care of the weekends, I make pet care a priority in my schedule. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in yours, I treat every animal like they're part of the family. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible-whether that means feeding schedules, medication, potty breaks, or favorite playtimes-so they feel comfortable and secure. In my own home, I make sure pets have a safe, welcoming environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. Since I have both a senior dog and a young, active pup, I'm used to balancing different needs and making sure each dog gets the right amount of exercise, attention, and rest. In a clients home, I'm respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet's environment clean, safe, and stress-free. I'll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your furry family member is happy and well cared for while you're away.

“I had Claire house sit. She spoiled my cats rotten while I was away and took care of my house plants and goldfish pond. She said they call her the "cat whisperer" and I believe her...even the cat who never goes near strangers was sitting in her lap. She kept in touch while I traveled and sent lots of pictures of the cats getting plenty of love and care.”
“Casey Anne is literally the best Rover sitter I’ve had, and I’ve had quite a few. She was so helpful and accommodating to my needs and my cat loves her. I will be using her again and highly recommend anyone to use her. Thanks so much!”
“Wow ! Tara was great ! My cats were very well loved while we were away - she even brought a note book to write down the details of care for my pets. I was impressed! Everything looked great when we returned home - and they were happy ! Don’t know how we found you Tara but we will definitely use u again!”
About: I have been walking dogs since I was 12 years old. I have also been dog sitting since I was in high school. I have dog sat for friends, family, employers, and specifically dog sitting clients. I have experience spending overnights in the owner’s homes caring for their beloved pets, including feeding and bathing dogs. I also have experience fostering puppies, which I do for a local animal shelter. I also have owned dogs for most of my life and enjoy spending time with them. I currently work full-time, but I will have plenty of time on the weekends for boarding, walking, playing, and caring for your loving animals. I am also open to doing weekdays/nights if your pets are house trained for me to be able attend work. This would include long morning walks before and after my workday. I have a fenced in yard and I also have two of my own friendly dogs that could keep your pet comfortable, or if you would prefer my dogs can go to their grandmothers and your dog can have the house to themselves. I have a “dog room” set up in my house, which includes protective flooring for accidental messes, a dog friendly couch, and camera monitoring system. It is also gated. I also have the ability to crate your loving pet if needed. I have an xl crate, so you wouldn’t need to bring one. In a client’s home, I am very respectful of your space and always clean up after myself. You will often return home with washed linens and tidied space. I will abide by any rules you set and am always easily able to get in touch with during my stay in your home. I provide daily photo/video updates of your fur baby.
About: I have had cats all my life. I love caring for them and watching them warm up to new people. They don't trust easy like dogs so winning over a cat's affections is always heartwarming. I have experience with giving medication, cleaning litter boxes and more.

We are a team - two very experienced dog owners.

I’m willing to feed, walk and play with your dogs when you are not available.

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kim and her husband Mickey. They responded immediately and was so helpful and friendly. Even worked with my unknown hours. They cared for my 7 month old puppy Luke he was a KING! They had great, well behaved dogs that he loved and played with non stop. They always lake them to sog parks and my puppy is exausted when we get home which is wonderful because so are we. I am so blessed to have met them and their sweetness for my puppy and helping us find places to eat or see around the new town. Thor ( our puppy) now knows when we go towards their place and races up to their door. Mickey loves the animals as much or maybe more than Kim which is incredible they both adore animals so much. Kim is so helpful and always willing to accommodate any need. I wouldn't use anyone else!!!!”
About: We have many animals at our home, we have two labs, 2 cats and 14 chickens. We’ve had a senior dachshund, senior lab and senior cat before so we are all well versed in the care of different animals at different stages. I am currently a stay at home mom so I am able to make our schedule whatever it needs to be to properly care for your animals while you are away. We have a yard with privacy fence so animals can run freely in the yard. We have a two year old lab that does wonderfully with other dogs and would love to be your pets playmate. We have a kennel if need be and are comfortable allowing animals to sleep outside of the kennel as well if that is their preference.
“Tracy and her dogs are so sweet and took great care of my pup! He was super excited to go back after the first day, and he came home very tired! I would definitely recommend Tracy!”
“Amazing experience! Y’all are SO kind. Our pup Georgia had a blast and was well taken care of. Thank you for helping us out with watching her while we were in a bind. Will definitely be booking again.”

About: Hello! Im 24 located in Dorchester and a huge animal lover. I have two dogs and two cats of my own. They are my whole world ! Im a hard worker and can be trusted! I hope we can talk more :) I am currently available Mondays, Wednesday, Fridays, Sundays pretty open on these days! I have flexibility so I’m willing to work around different schedules :) I always make sure to take the best care of every furry animal in my care! I can make every environment feel fun and safe as well :)
About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.
“Tristian, I don’t know how we survived without you before! We can’t thank you enough! Tristian took the best care of our two dogs over Thanksgiving! One of our dogs is a strong 80lb Pitbull on a special raw food diet and takes medication. He was so great with them and took pictures and stayed in communication with us the whole time. We will be using Tristian from now on whenever we can!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. Was a vet tech for 6 years, also worked medical at a zoo and now and have been human medical for over 25 years. I have Red Cross pet Fist Aide and CPR certification. I will only take care of your pups on the days I’m off other job. So my schedule will be open for those 2 days. I will carry a medical pet bag at all times and make sure your pets are safe and loved while there with me. I can send videos and pictures of our time if you would like.
About: I’m very cautious with all of the fur babies and making sure they are safe and very happy with me. I’m a very lovable person. I’m available anytime! I can get busy but that’s ok because I’m willing to make you happy and your fur babies. I love being around animals. I make sure your pets are fed properly and that they are happy and I will definitely make sure that they don’t get into trouble with anything.
About: Hey! I have experience as a veterinary professional with over 10 years of caring for pets, including emergency medicine. I’ve always had a burning passion to care for animals since I was young. I am experienced in giving medications and also providing lots of attention and love while you’re away. I have pets of my own and understand the love, care, and affection they need while you’re away and I know what it’s like to need someone special to take care of them. I enjoy being active so going on walks, playing tug-of-war, or even ball is not a problem. I love to keep pet parents updated with pictures and videos. I like to follow the same routines as you would for your furry family members to ensure they have a calm and comfortable experience. I will provide exceptional and experienced service for you and your furry friends so you can relax in knowing they are safe and comfortable:) We can always figure out a schedule that works for everyone! I am always trying to figure out what works best for everyone’s schedule, so if you have questions we can talk prior to booking. I do not board at my home. Typically to keep a nice stable and calm environment I encourage my clientele to allow me to stay at their home or periodically check in on their pets in their own home. I have found that over the years being in their own home is where pets are most comfortable and safe.

I am a work from home mom and have all the time to play with your fur babies! I have a large fenced in backyard that is fully secure. I also have an air conditioned garage. All pets are welcome to be inside all day long but sometimes they want to play and run and it’s nice to have a cool down spot. All animals are welcome to stay inside all day and night. I am a light sleeper and wake up to let my senior dog, Lola, out at night for bathroom breaks regularly. I am always home and my daughter has been raised and daughter how to be safe and appropriate with new animals. We treat others and their pets with the respect we would want in return.
