“Luna loves going to Carols house and spending time with her friend Jazzy! She practically pulls me in the door! Carol is flexible, attentive, caring, and has been great to work with. I would highly recommend her!”


2. Christina R.

“Summer loves spending the day with Christina and Cooper! You can tell from her excitement as soon as she sees Christina. Christina is super responsive as well.”


3. Kelsey B.

“Kelsey was very responsive when setting up the daycare and when she was watching Bubba! By the time I picked my dog up he did not want to leave, and he was tuckered out from all the playing and walking with Kelsey. As a first time Rover user it was a really good experience and I would recommend Kelsey to dog owners looking for a reliable dog sitter. Thank you for taking care of Bubba !”


4. Joshua B.

5. Chuhan H.
“Chuhan took exceptional care of my dog while I was away. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and kind. I highly recommend her as a loving, trustworthy pet caregiver.”


6. Dilyara S.
“"Having Dilya care for my two Italian Greyhounds has been a true blessing! She goes above and beyond in every way—feeding them, taking them on walks and mini hikes, and even dressing them in cozy outfits for cold weather. My pups adore her playful energy and cuddles, and I know they’re in the best hands when she takes them to vet appointments or handles drop-offs and pick-ups from doggy daycare when I’m away. She’s responsible, caring, and genuinely loves my dogs as if they were her own. I couldn’t ask for a better caregiver!"”


7. David & Betsy G.

“I'm really happy to have found David and Betsy, and their lovely dog, Henry. They were extremely welcoming, loving, and understanding of my high-spirited, rambunctious young dog. Their beautiful home and large fenced yard are totally dog-friendly. Taika came home relaxed and happy, which is all I could ask for. This visit was for doggie daycare, but I know we'll be back for boarding this year as well.”

12. Sidney M.
“I think Sidney is a great dog-mom! She has plenty of experience since she grew up with a dog in her household, and she has also raised two super cute fur babies herself. If you get Sidney as your sitter you can sit back and relax because she will take great care of your dog, and be very loving and caring.”


13. Erika M.

18. Eddy J.

“Eddy is super amazing!! If I can give more than 5 stars, I would. Requested service in the last minute, not only came through but also ended up being the best pet care giver we had so far!! Our pet is very nervous and anxious around people, but Eddy is extremely patient and knew exactly what to do with her. He kept sending her picture periodically and kept us at ease through out the day. We can’t thank him enough for being so caring and gentle with her. Coming from out of town, we were very nervous about who will be handling our pet. Eddy turned out to be so amazing that we were able to spend our time in Boston happily. We highly recommend Eddy for all pet care services!!”
19. Cami K.

“Cami was fantastic! She was able to accommodate a very last minute request, and she was super communicative. My dog Petunia had an awesome time playing and didn't want to leave.”


20. Yasaman K.
“Yasaman has been a long time friend of mine and for as long as I have known her, her love of dogs has been abundantly clear. She is very emphatic and is thus an excellent communicator between humans and dogs.”
