“Kylie stopped in to bring my dog Patsy out when I had to work longer shifts at work. She was a great communicator and I felt very comfortable having her care for Patsy. I could tell Patsy loved her too based off how happy she looked in the photos Kylie sent! I would definitely recommend any of her services!”

“Wendy is kind and trustworthy. She took the time to get to know my dog and made sure she was comfortable at the first visit. My dog is a unique breed so I really appreciated the patience. She was very professional!”

“Katy was awesome. She was consistent in her visits and thorough. She sent plenty of pictures and I felt confident my fur babies were well cared for. I will definitely use Katy’s service again. Ty”

About: I’ve loved caring for animals my whole life - having my own dog since I was 10 and growing up with up to three dogs at a time. I also have experience with cats and horses, so I know how to be gentle, responsible, and attentive to each animal’s needs. I’m excited to give your pets the care and attention they deserve! I just graduated from my master’s program and am currently working on a manuscript for publication. I’m also in the job search, so most of my day is spent reading and writing - leaving plenty of time to help out your pets! I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet I care for. In my home or yours, I make sure pets have a secure space, access to food, water, and any necessary medications, and plenty of attention and exercise. I pay close attention to each animal’s individual needs and behavior, to ensure they remain well and safe.
“Lucy was professional and paid great attention to details. She was very kind to us and especially, our 4 legged kiddos! We felt comfortable with her presence in our home while we were on our trip, knowing she would take care of them and give them the attention they desire. We will definitely ask for her servicers next time we need a great pet-sitter. Thank you”

“Adriana was attentive, communicative, and helpful throughout her visits with our pup. She even left him a sweet Christmas gift. We felt great knowing we had someone trustworthy keeping him safe while we were away. We would definitely use her again in the future.”

“Sarah was fantastic! Accepted a last-minute series of weekend drop-ins for my cats and they really took to her. Just what they needed - caring human time complete with playtime and just hanging out. Exceptional!”

About: Plenty of experience with all types of pets! I have been around dogs and cats all of my life and I currently own an AMAZING corgi named Macy. I am very comfortable around all dogs whether they are small or large. I love dogs and will definitely take wayyyy too many pictures of your fur babies. Your pets are your children and I am more than equipped to meet their needs. I lived with 4 dogs before so I’m very used to watching more than 1. Keeping your pets happy is my priority!!! I typically work 8-5pm at Texas a&m and I’m free outside of that! Depending on how close you were I could potentially let the dogs out at lunch. Your pets typically feel most comfortable in their own environment so while I can’t keep them at my house with my current housing restrictions I am more than willing to house sit so that they can feel at ease while you are away.
“Mara is wonderful! I was in from out of town visiting my parents and she took care of my dog Teddy so we could take a day trip. She was so kind, accommodating and Teddy loved her! I will definitely use her again when I’m in town! Thank you Mara!”

About: Hi! I am a Wellesley High School graduate currently taking a gap year to care for my mother with cancer. I have extensive knowledge on how to approach and handle dogs that tend to be more reactive or have suffered past abuse. Whether your fluffy family members are more shy upon first meetings or extremely affectionate, I observe and prioritize their emotional state. I grew up with three German Shepherds, as well as, boarding small dogs. Furthermore, I will care and treat your pups the way I do mine: with endless love. I currently work at a grocery store on Wednesdays from 8am -2pm, and Saturdays and Sundays from 9am-3pm. On those days I am open to walks/drop ins until 7Pm. However, in May I will be transitioning into a full time care giver position, which will allow me to have a large flexibility with scheduling. I value respect towards owners, their animals, and home. How I care for your dog is completely tailored to you and the expectations we discuss.
“Charlene was excellent - incredibly thorough with care, very knowledgeable, generous and warm with our cat. She was able to get our sometimes difficult/reclusive cat to warm up to her and successfully administered his medicine. Charlene sent us plenty of videos and text updates throughout the period we were away. Highly recommend!”


“Sally watched our cat Willow for the third time, and once again she did an amazing job. We came home to a very happy, well-cared-for cat, and it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Sally is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly cares so much about Willow. We’re so grateful to have her and would absolutely recommend her!”

Wellesley pet parents share their Rover experiences
Devon was amazing with our cats! They bonded with her right away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond with little things like washing their dishes, checking on them in their very good hiding places, and keeping the litter box clean. The photo updates were also such a highlight and comforting while we were away. We highly recommend Devon and would absolutely book her again!

Emily took care of our cat like she was her own while we were out of town. She was incredibly responsive, gave us regular updates, and went above and beyond to make sure our cat was happy. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. We came home to a very happy cat—and a spotless home. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely caring.
Erica was awesome! Punctual, attentive and an excellent communicator! My pup didn’t feel well and she went above and beyond to send pics and comfort Essie while I was out of town- even cleaned up and checked back to see if she could help clean up after her last “shift”!
