“Natalie was great! We really appreciated her flexibility and dedication. She was very conscientious with our home. And she took some great photos :)”


2. Natalia D.


“She was quick to communicate and left the house in good shape. I have a big dog who doesn’t do well with other dogs. She was great with following directions and keeping him away from dogs and still got him tired with walks. Would use again!”

10. Kelcee G.

“Kelcee was great and took good care of our dog Winston in our apartment for a weekend! She came to meet us and Winston the week before our trip, and kept us updated with photos of him while we were away. This was our first experience using a dog sitting service like Rover and it was great to have peace of mind the whole weekend knowing Winston was being taken care of. Would highly recommend Kelcee to anyone!”


11. Donna M.

“Donna was exceptional, and we plan to use her again for our upcoming travel! She is kind, responsible, and was super flexible even when our flights were unexpectedly delayed. Thank you, Donna!”


12. Ani T.

“Moose loved his night hanging with Ani! My plans were last minute, so I reached out to Ani only a few hours before needing her. She was quick to respond and very professional. She even came by before to meet Moose and learn some paticulars about him. She was very communicative and send updates often along with pictures. I felt at ease all night and loved the pictures of him. Definitely will be using Ani in the future!”


13. Amy K.

“We’ve had Amy watch our cat more than once and would be happy to book her again. Would recommend her!”


14. Grace D.
“Looking for a loving and patient caregiver for your furry friend(s)? Grace is our top pick. She is wonderful! She has taken care of our dog numerous times and it’s definitely a mutual admiration society. Grace is highly dependable and a great communicator. I never have to worry when Grace is on board. Highly recommend!”




15. Bethany S.

“Bethany stepped in to pet sit for us last minute, and we are so thankful for that. She took excellent care of our pup and our home we highly highly recommend and she will be our first request for all future needs!”


16. Christina J.
“There isn't a more reliable and dog-savvy person to place your trust in taking care of your fur baby than Christina. She grew up with two Havanese and helps us out watching our third Havanese, a nine month old puppy, at her home in Watertown when we're away. Christina is an extremely level-headed, smart woman with dog whisperer qualities that I know will have you being a repeat client once you try her out!”


17. Brittanie Z.

“Brittanie was amazing with our two fur babies. She was very communicative and kept us up to date on everything the week we were gone. She stayed in house with our pups and left the place like we left it and cleaned up before leaving. We would recommend her and hire her again for any future services.”


18. Christie F.

“Christie took care of my German Shepherd, Lyra, while I was away for two nights. Lyra instantly liked her the second she showed up for the meet & greet, which is important because Lyra has a lot of anxiety. For example, she had separation anxiety while I was gone and had some accidents, which Christie cleaned up and alerted me about as they happened. She is very communicative, responsible, and trustworthy with your pets. Like I said to her after I came home, I will be hiring her again!”




19. Terri Z.


“Thanks Terri for being so responsive and always accommodating me and my dogs' crazy schedule whether it be for walks or house sitting! When she house sat for us, she left the house sparkling clean.”




20. Laura G.

“Laura is an excellent pet sitter. She is so patient even with my extremely temperamental Westie who needs lots of extra care. I was so nervous because most sitters have told me they can’t handle Daisy and don’t see her sweet personality but Laura made it so easy. She was patient and kind to her and they were friends by the time I got home. She administered medication, was extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures, and she took great care of the house. We will definitely be hiring her again!”
