Personalized care for your dog or cat - Roxbury

“Christina and Jason say that 'while your dog is with us, your dog is our dog', and they really mean it. They truly understand and love dogs. There is absolutely nothing else I could want in a pet sitter. I am so grateful to have found them. My dog is pretty darn happy about it too.”

Ann B.

“My two border collies had an excellent time, with plenty of supervised play with other dogs. My old guy Luke thoroughly enjoyed his active social life and is quite bored to be back home. Meanwhile, my young dog Rafe completely bonded to Sam and kept her in sight all the time. Plenty of outside exercise and I loved the photo updates. I’ve never boarded these two before but it worked out great and will happily board with Sam again.”

Kate C.

“Gwynn is amazing. She paid attention to exactly the attention (exercise, etc.) that Martie needed and even sent us pictures of their adventures. Martie was exhausted when we got home!”

Courtney L.

“Sarah was great! Very attentive to my dog, Willa’s, needs, communicative, and Willa absolutely adored her dog Maple. We will definitely use them again should the need arise.”

Daniel E.

“Our pup had a wonderful stay with Sonya! She enjoyed socializing with other doggy friends during her visit and she loved having an affectionate caretaker at her side. We were thrilled to receive daily updates and look forward to sending her back.”

Megan M.

“If you’re looking for a serene, loving environment for your pup, AnnaRose is the perfect sitter for you! My beagle, Maya, enjoyed the company of AnnaRose’s two calm, sweet dogs—and having their company helped her to settle in right away. AnnaRose was attentive to Maya’s needs, showered her with love, and provided tons of updates to give me peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

Mckenzie R.

“Natalie and Patrick took wonderful care of Bert as always. I really appreciate their frequent updates and pictures. He came home a very tired and very happy boy :) He is already looking forward to his next stay.”

Marissa G.

“I am truly grateful to have found Lexi to care for my dog, Vizhna. I need to board V for 11 weekends over a nine-month period because I'm going to school away from home. Vizhna gets anxious in new situations, so it was important for me to find one person who could do most or all of the weekends, instead of finding a different sitter for each weekend. I contacted 14 pet-sitters on Rover that didn't work out--before I contacted Lexi. Lexi is calm, competent, thoughtful, caring, and detail-oriented, and Vizhna was able to relax and enjoy herself while staying with Lexi and her family. That was a huge weight off my heart, to find a situation where V will not feel anxious while she's away from home--and in fact to find a second (temporary) home for V. I highly recommend Lexi for any pet care you need!”

Bara M.

“Amber was a fabulous dog-sitter! She sent me the cutest pictures on Rupert, clearly enjoying his stay. It enabled me to enjoy my journey, knowing he was well-cared for. I will gladly book with Amber again.”

Sarah C.

“Deirdre was absolutely wonderful! She took the time to know and understand our boy and his quirks and provided a safe and cozy place for him while we were away. Her communication was frequent and clear, and was very easy to work with. She's very mindful and in-tune with dogs and obviously cares deeply about providing a good experience for them. The model shots we got for updates was also a huge bonus!”

Kayla S.

“Hobbs had a great time with Julia at her home. The backyard is large and the fence is very sturdy and high. Julia clearly enjoys her time with animals.”

Janis D.

“Victoria was so great with our puppies. Communicated often and sent great pictures!! They were very well taken care of and loved! It was so nice knowing someone was taking such good care of them and we didn’t have to worry! Would definitely book with Victoria again.”

About: I can’t remember the last time I’ve lived in a home without a dog or cat! I’ve been training my own furball who’s 10 months old and he’s doing great! I have some time on my hands in between jobs at the moment to help others out. I am currently between jobs for the next few months so I have plenty of time and flexibility to work with your schedule. Happy to fill my days with more dogs! I have a large yard and plenty of trails nearby to walk the puppers! I also have a 10 month old Irish wolfhound that absolutely loves hanging out with other dogs! I have crates - large enough for an Irish wolfhound and room for yours if needed!

“Christina was fantastic! Zoe loved spending time with her, and we appreciated the photo updates while we were gone. We don't need boarding very often, but next time we do, we will absolutely use Christina again. Thank you so much!”

Andra C.

“Karly did a fantastic job taking care of my dog! She was reliable, caring, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing my pup was in good hands. I would absolutely book with Karly again and highly recommend her! 🐾”

Julia C.

“Anna was an outstanding pet and house sitter. She was professional, responsive, and incredibly patient with all of my nervous pet-mom questions throughout the stay. She arrived right on time, took wonderful care of my pets, and left my home in immaculate condition. She even washed all of the bedding without being asked, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated gesture. I came home to happy pets and a house that looked wonderful. I would not hesitate to recommend Anna and would gladly book her again.”

Kathryn R.

“Chloe is very kind and it was a pleasure having her watch my baby! During our meet and greet, she was very understanding and asked lots of questions to make sure she could provide the best care. In the end, she provided excellent care, is super responsive, and provides daily updates! Maulie was happy and healthy when I picked her up. I will definitely book again - thank you Chloe!! 😊”

Lisa Y.

“Alison took great care of our dog Brooke! She was easy to communicate with and very responsive. Alison even went the extra mile by dropping Brooke off at our wedding venue to take a few photos with us and then picking her up so we could enjoy the rest of our day.”

Laura H.

“Great communication and the dogs were happy!”

About: As a long-time dog lover, I’ve had the privilege of caring for countless pups. Backyard plays, long wooded walks and plenty of enrichment are just a few ways that make my care is special. I am currently a full time artist with a flexible schedule. I actively care for my own pup with lots of play and walks. Any pup would get the same attention and consistent care. I have a fenced in yard with a four-year old golden retriever who is as sweet as they come. They would have a safe and supervised environment to run free and play.

“Marissa took great care of my 3 cats over the course of several months of repeat visits, super consistent with great communication and initiative with the cats. And the cats seemed to like her, too. Can't recommend her enough”

Michael H.

About: I've taken care of cats ever since I was a child. I absolutely adore cats of all breeds and sizes! I look forward to meeting your furry friend

“Liilian really went above and beyond to make sure that our cats were cared for, played with, and safe while we were away and we're so thankful for that peace of mind knowing that they were in such good hands. Thank you!!”

Colin S.

About: I’ve owned, taken care of and loved cats my whole life. I love getting to know new cats’ personalities, they’re all so different!

About: I used to live with two cats before I moved to Mammoth - one used to be a street cat & scared easily. The other was super curious & playful. I’ve cared for a wide range of cats - from cuddly to independent. From playful to fierce. I even have experience with senior cats who need diapers & medication. I love cats & love to give them the care they deserve.

“She was flexible and came to watch my cat around the holidays, which was really appreciated!”

Halie C.

About: I've cat-sat friends, families, and neighbors' cats since high school! I have experience providing them with daily medication and spending enough time with them to allow them to play and let out some energy. I will also take care of litterbox cleaning if needed!

“Margaret did such a great job taking care of our cats! She was very attentive and sent us lots of pictures and updates, we will definitely be working with her again :)”

Rachel L.

“Thanks for taking excellent care of our pup!”

Eric M.

“Autumn did a great job taking care of Honey. I would highly recommend her.”

Rob N.

“Thank you so much! Molly was exceptional and gave Peebie lots of TLC and I could tell she was excellently cared for.”

Avi Joseph H.

“Sarah was very kind and accommodating. Also so easy for anyone who is spending the day skiing at Stowe. Would definitely trust her to take care of my little one again.”

Hanne G.

“Colby hosted our three pups in her home for a day and it was an amazing experience! She was extremely communicative and made sure to cater to each of our dog's individual needs. Our dogs came home so happy and tired from all the fun they had with Colby. I mean, what more could we ask for? We are all looking forward to working with Colby again!”

Valerie B.

“Lauryn was a great sitter! I would definitely recommend her.”

Brian K.

“AnnaRose saved the day when I was looking for a last minute dog sitter. She was so loving to my Miss LuLu. I would definitely hire her again.”

Patricia S.

“Deirdre was terrific. Our dog, Riley seemed happy and tired after all day with Deirdre. We are traveling, and have had significant car and trailer problems. Deirdre has been BEYOND helpful and flexible with last-minute schedule changes.”

Kathleen M.

“Chloe was wonderful! We used her daycare services. She sent pics and notes throughout the day, and responded quickly. We will definitely be back!”

Patrick K.

About: I grew up with many animals, both my own pets, and animals on my grandfather's dairy farm (he was also a vet). I live in the country in Richmond, and have cats, young kids and animals Rover won't let me name in the description...but they provide eggs. We have dogs in our "extended family" and we are well accustomed to dogs but we do not have one ourselves at this time. If your dog is 100% safe with those people and pets and well-behaved, let's talk! Independently insured. We enjoy hosting dogs, and are home most days of the week for most of the day. We enjoy walking with dogs and playing fetch (if dogs like to do that) on our hill in our yard. We would need to do a meet & greet to make sure it is a good match. Our yard is not fenced, and we are on a dirt road in the country with woods on the property and surrounding it, so dogs should not be prone to bolting etc. They must be 100% safe with young kids, cats and free range egg producers. No aggressive or reactive dogs please.

“Flexible and great communication!”

Amanda C.

About: Growing up around a wide variety of animals has given me the skills and passion needed to be an attentive and responsible carer of all kinds of pets. I've owned several dogs, cats, rodents, and horses. I was responsible for administering medications, accommodating pets with special needs, becoming attuned to various behaviors and habits, and adhering to specific individualized training methods. I'm currently working full-time from home as a customer service rep for a small, local company and mothering my 2 year old toddler (who is very gentle and respectful around all animals). I'm fortunately very flexible with my schedule and can accommodate both last-minute and long-term schedules! Being a sincere animal lover, I'm always enthusiastically willing to tend to the needs of any pets that are under my care. I believe that both people and animals benefit from living in a clean and comfortable space, so I seek to maintain and accommodate that kind of positive atmosphere in your pet's home.

“Karly helped us out with a last minute request. Max had a good afternoon with her. Thanks, Karly!”

Yolanda B.

About: I've had dogs since I was born, have worked in shelters and keep raising my own puppy dog. I give dogs multiple walks and play with them. If necessary I take them hiking, play fetch outdoor and give them lots of love an attention. I will make your dog feel like family and help with any training that you're working on. I would love to have many digs but at the moment we can only afford one as we travel through occasionally. I work from home Monday through Friday so I am there 24/7 to support and hang out with your pet. We usually do at least a morning walk, lunch quick outing and afternoon longer walk. Our home has an unfenced yard. I will walk your pet on a leash through our trails. I will follow your pet’s schedule and they will be allowed in the open house including couch and bed if that is part of their lifestyle.

“Wendy was so friendly and we really appreciated that she sent us pictures during our pups stay. If we are ever in the area again, we would definitely use her services again.”

Lynn M.

“Marissa did a great job walking our two big dogs! She was very communicative and handled them with confidence. We really appreciated that she did a meet & greet beforehand so everyone felt comfortable. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Sophie, a dependable animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I know every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, medication (if needed), or just a calm companion, I’m happy to help. I believe in providing updates with photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to detail, and I’ll always care for your pets as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I'm currently working 30 hours per week, in short shifts, i'm also a part time student. I have reliable days off and live building routine. I can easily crate and administer medication if needed, i'm able to walk and handle all dogs of varying breeds and behaviors. I love animals so any interaction is a treat!

About: I have been taking care of animals for about 15 years! Between family pets, neighbors' pets, and family friends', I have spent a lot of time with all kinds of animals with lots of different personalities and quirks. I am used to staying in the home with your pet(s) and have plenty of references! I am excited to get back into house sitting here in Bellingham and meet some new friends. :) I am currently working remote full time M-F, so I am able to spend lots of time with your pets as long as I have internet access!! My weekends are super flexible as well :) I am happy to accommodate any special needs your pet may have and any requests you may have. I want to keep your baby as comfortable and happy as possible while you are away!! I am unfortunately unable to provide boarding due to my housing.

“Even in the cold and snow Jeremy is an amazing dog walker”

Maggie S.

“Colby did great with our Basset Hound, Muffin. They both seemed to enjoy each other immediately. They went for a nice walk, and Muffin offered Colby many kisses afterwards as a thank you. Colby seemed to handle Muffin's little antics quite well, and they parted as new friends. Thank you, Colby!”

About: I grew up around animals of all kinds on a farm and had the privilege of owning and loving our dog, Betty Lou for 14 years. I work from home and am looking for ways to make extra money while staying active and fitting in with my kids' school schedule (9 am-3 PM). We have a fenced in yard and I will follow whatever guidelines are needed in the client's home. I understand each situation is different and each pet needs specific care.

“Oz had a great time. Biggest thing was, he gave Niko one sniff and decided to show himself to the door. He definitely felt at home. Plenty of walks and pictures as well.”

Owen T.

“Our dog had an awesome time with Allaire and was very well cared for while we were away! Allaire was very responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates which was greatly appreciated. We would definitely use Allaire again for boarding!”
