“Claudia was great with our dog who is very anxious by nature. She was on time and very responsible in communication with me through Rover. I felt great peace of mind knowing our dog was walked and well taken care of while we had a couple of long days at work. Highly recommend!”
“Sunny is fabulous with animals. Our Austrailian Cattle Dog is not the easiest of breeds and he formed a rappore with her very quickly. Sunny is also responsive, responsibile, and a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend her!”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs from young pups through dogs in their final years, as well as cats of various ages. I grew up with 1-2 dogs in our household at all times, several bunnies for which I was the primary caregiver as a kid and teenager, and frequent interactions with my friends’ cats. I am a responsible oldest daughter and love meeting and caring for animals!! I work in an elementary school, so once the school year starts I will be busy from approximately 7am to 4pm each week day. I have a lot of availability on weekends and more daytime availability during the summer and school breaks. I always follow the pet parents’ instructions closely because they know their pets best. I treat all pets with care and love. In particular, with dogs, I enjoy taking them on long walks if they are up for it. While pet sitting, I make sure to spend time with the pets while I am not at work (not coming back simply for their care routine).
About: I've been doing pet care since I was 8 and have lots of experience with animals of all ages and personalities. Typical animal care from me looks like refilling food and water, walks, cleaning litter boxes, and finding creative ways to keep your animals thoroughly entertained. This summer I'm taking online college classes so my schedule is super flexible. The only set times I'll be busy doing virtual classes are from 11:00-4:30 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Please let me know what times work for you. I will always make sure to keep your dogs on leashes when not in fenced in areas to ensure your pup's safety is accounted for.
“Alexander has been wonderful with Pocket! He’s reliable, punctual, and has been so great about keeping him comfortable and happy. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks, and I’ve really appreciated how dependable he’s been. I highly recommend him!”
About: Hi, my name is Jose and I'm excited to meet you and your pet. I have cared for and looked after dogs, cats, birds, and other animals for most of my life. Your pet will be cared for and loved when they're with me, because above all, I love animals! I have the most experience with dogs and cats, and when it comes to dog training, I implement positive reinforcement methods. I have handled dogs of all sizes, breeds and energy levels. I love dogs because of their boundless enthusiasm and love for even the simplest of things. Your dog will get a lot of attention and playtime when they're with me. You can rest assured that I will treat them as if they were my own. Cats are also welcome, and in fact, most of my experience for the past 5+ years has been with cats, whether it's feeding them, sifting their litter, or keeping them entertained. I'd love to set up an initial call to see if I would be a good fit for your pet. If that goes well we can then set up a meet and greet to confirm details and allow your pet to become familiar with me. I don't work a full-time job since I also take time to take care for my child, so my day time hours are very flexible. For dogs I make sure they're on leash at all times outside and for cats and other animals I just make sure they have everything they need and are entertained under my care.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, small mammals, and love all animals! I’m reliable, trustworthy, and communicative. Your pets and home will be in safe hands. I am only taking a couple summer classes, so fitting pet care into my schedule will be no problem. Talk to me about your desires and I’ll make it a priority! I love hearing from clients how I can best serve them. I’m very detailed oriented and take pet safety very seriously. Let me know how I can best serve you!
About: Since A Kid I have been around dogs, and watched plenty of training dog videos, I got my new dog 1 year ago, and he has learned how to walk without a leash, and basic training like wait leave it sit stay, he’s a high drive dog K9 so I’m always outside with him hiking or doing some type of activity, I can sit your dog at your house, but trust me he will be outside most of the time enjoying his best life, I know I wouldn’t want a stranger sitting around my house all day doing absolutely nothing… I'm available everyday is perfect for me since I do DoorDash I can easily work with pets rather than food delivery, is my drive and it motivates me I search my dog for any allergies or ticks every day, and prepare some remedies every time we go outside to keep him safe from any mosquitoes or tick bites.
“Jonathan replied to a very last minute request from us, and provided top notch care to our stranger-wary dog. He was communicative and kind and we would ask him for help in a heartbeat should we need to again.”

“Catherine was a great dog walker! She responded well to my nervous dog and he grew comfortable with her super quick. She always returned my dog well exercised at the end of the walk!”
About: I have taken care of not only my own dog , but many others when needed for the past 5+ years, feeding, walking, and etc. I am currently a student, but I am usually available most weekday afternoons and weekends! As a student in college, I have gained lots of responsibility and experience. I have a lot of outdoor space with a fence, access to good walking trails, dog parks, and the ability to keep them well maintained.
About: I’ve been around dogs for my whole life, actually I have never not had a dog. I come from a Boxer house hold, so I am especially great with bigger and energetic pups! I have experience with over night care of pets from many summers of my parents going on vacation. I just moved to Boston for my master’s degree and had to leave my childhood pup at home, so I am looking for love from a pet! It would be my pleasure to spend time with your pet! I’m currently a full time student and I commute to Boston for classes. Monday I am on campus from 1:30-5:30; Tuesday is my longest day from 11:45-8:30; Wednesday 2:50-8:30; Thursday 11:45-5:30; and Friday I don’t have class! My weekends are completely free. Outside of those time ranges Monday-Thursday I am available to care for your pets! I am very clean and respectful when being in someone else’s home. Any directions you give me I will follow! If I have any questions I will be sure to clarify with you.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog since I was 13, taking her out for walks, parks, and appointments. We love going on strolls just as much as cuddling on the couch! I have also had cats for the past 18 years so I can also navigate relationships between the two. I work 3 days or night a week as a nurse so I have ample days off with lots of opportunity to walk dogs. And even on the days I do work I have time before or after if needed. I love to greet my dog with lots of care and love. I often feed her treats and am constantly chatting to her to make her feel included!

Doyle seems to be enjoying his time with Margaret. I enjoy her updates and photos and she is very thorough in her reporting of the activities that they shared. I enjoyed meeting her before Doyle's first walk with her, and feel very comfortable with her having Doyle in her care. I look forward to many more weeks ahead. Susan Larson
Sebastian is a life saver! I had a last minute need for a walker while staying at a hotel and Sebastian showed up with such excitement and warmth! I have a senior pup who requires meds and special food and it was such a relief to know he was in great hands with Sebastian. My pup was well fed, cared for, and loved while I was away all day. I’m honestly sad we’re not in his area so he’d be my pups official walker! Hire him!!!
Sue has helped us with our big boy Hugo on several occasions, coming into our house and taking him out for a long walk around our neighborhood, then feeding and playing with him for a bit. She is reliable, trustworthy, prompt and great with our boy. I highly recommend Sue to anyone looking for some help with their fur baby.
Finding someone who can handle a rowdy, high-energy 7-month-old German Shepherd puppy is no easy task, but Michelle handles him like an absolute pro! She is patient, reliable, and fantastic with energetic working breeds and my pup Nyx had a blast. I can count on her to give him a great walk and peace of mind while I'm away.
We love Bryana, she’s very responsive and flexible with scheduling Cali’s weekly walks. Cali is a senior girl and Bryana gives her the extra love and care she needs! She makes sure Cali gets all of the sniffs in during their walk as well as walking at whatever pace Cali needs that day. I HIGHLY recommend Bryana for any pet care needs!!
Angelica was absolutely wonderful with Boomer and Simba! She was on time, available on short notice, and made the whole experience stress-free. The dogs were so excited to see her and clearly enjoyed their walks. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about animals, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Waban. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
